Transcript

[Chick McGee]

It's the bob and tom show. This is a song I wrote for a special person.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Each time I need a trusted friend, you're there. With tears to dry and a heart to mend, you're there. And when I'm down in misery and the whole world turns it's back on me and I need some love and sympathy. You there. Nice, isn't it?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yes.

[Chick McGee]

And when I'm weary and tired of trying, Honey, you're there. And anytime I need a shoulder to cry on, you're there. And sometimes when I come home with a heavy heart and weary bones and I need a little time alone, you're there. I want to turn the stereo on, but you're there. I gotta get in to use the john, but you're there. When I wake up lovingly and turn on my pillow open to see Kim Basinger smiling back at me.

[Josh Arnold]

You.

[Chick McGee]

This is more of a good thing than I, I ever plan. How much damn togetherness a one man stand.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't get me laughing here.

[Chick McGee]

All right. Sorry. I want to flop down in my favorite chair. But you're there. I can't see in the mirror to comb my hair. Cuz you're there. I want a little snack. At night I sneak down to the fridge to get a little bite.

[Pat Godwin]

I see a big fat ass blocking out the light.

[Josh Arnold]

Cause you're there.

[Ali Breen]

Hey.

[Chick McGee]

Hello. From the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, it's the Bob and Tom Show. Christy Lee at the news desk. There's Pat Cox Godwin. Hello, Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi there.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And hello. Tom Griswold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello to America. All the ships at sea, portions of Canada.

[Chick McGee]

Let's go to press.

[Tom Griswold]

And Hawaii and all around the world. That's Chick Magee's voice coming to you from the beautiful orange insoles.com sports desk.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Take care of your feet before they leave you.

[Chick McGee]

If you don't take care of your feet, you'll tip over. Remember that.

[Tom Griswold]

I know. Ace has got to be in a pretty good mood.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

Because Max Crosby, Ace's favorite redhead.

[Chick McGee]

He is a ginger.

[Tom Griswold]

He's going to be staying with the Raiders.

[Christy Lee]

Oh boy.

[Chick McGee]

Well, as of we're talking right now.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Apparently there are still teams interested him in him. Even though the Ravens call off the trade. They said he flunked the physical, sent him back to the Raiders. I saw it on the social last night and I thought this is a great gag, but I'm not going to get sucked in by it. I'd never seen anything like this in my life. A big time trade like this being buyer's remorse in a big, bad way.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, there may be some other intrigue going on. I understand, but the reason I bring it up is Ace Monday walked in and said my team traded there. Am I doing a pretty good voice? My team traded their best player just before he went on the air. So I knew it was going to be a rough day.

[Chick McGee]

If you're talking about. Hopefully the Ravens are angling for Trey Hendrickson. Believe me, they would rather take a half Max Crosby than an entire Trey Hendrickson. Believe me, there must be something wrong with Max Crosby.

[Tom Griswold]

He spells his Max with two X's, doesn't he?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

That's because he's extreme, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He's a bad man.

[Christy Lee]

Super bad.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So we'll get to. We have some other NFL news on the way.

[Chick McGee]

And Bam, out of bio. 83 points last night for the Heat. Second second highest since Wilt. Total since Wilt in 100.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, pass the ball, man.

[Chick McGee]

For God's sake.

[Christy Lee]

83 points.

[Chick McGee]

You know what? Bam, out of bio. He's a chucker.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, is he?

[Chick McGee]

He's a gunner. Remember we called him gunners when we were in.

[Christy Lee]

What the team score Gunner.

[Tom Griswold]

They won.

[Chick McGee]

I would hope Everybody shut up. 150 to 129.

[Tom Griswold]

And by the way, on yesterday's show, didn't someone ask? We were talking about. About the American baseball team and.

[Chick McGee]

No. Josh piped up and said Italy doesn't have a baseball team.

[Tom Griswold]

Guess what?

[Chick McGee]

Italy upsetting us last night. Eight, six.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, did they really?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

That is upsetting.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's very upsetting.

[Tom Griswold]

How's that happen?

[Chick McGee]

So much for. Well, that team scored more than our U.S. what?

[Tom Griswold]

I think somebody tasted the pizza. That's what I'm saying.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh. It wasn't like an elimination game or anything.

[Chick McGee]

They still advance.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There's some complicated scenario in which USA may not move forward.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no, you would not believe. Do me a favor and go ahead and see how this shakes out. As far as there's like, runs divided by innings.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

It's complicated.

[Chick McGee]

It's nuts, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll just wait for the MLP season.

[Tom Griswold]

And many will.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But this truly is the world.

[Chick McGee]

You're not the only one. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up, we have a reindeer in

[Chick McGee]

the news and sports cheating in a fishing tournament. Josh, put pen to paper. You might need some of these tips.

[Tom Griswold]

We have a very complicated treasure hunter. Treasure hunter story. This guy's been in jail for a long time because he won't tell where the, where the booty is. And I'm totally serious. The story is from the Associated Press and they use the term booty not in the, in the current street par launch jobs.

[Christy Lee]

Oh yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Booty.

[Christy Lee]

Pirate booty.

[Josh Arnold]

I knew what you were talking about,

[Tom Griswold]

but I mean if one hears the word booty, traditionally it.

[Christy Lee]

Well, now you think of booty.

[Chick McGee]

But, but you wouldn't know this, but I have a master's in snack food and there is a snack food called pirate booty.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, there is.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

It's like, is it shaped like.

[Josh Arnold]

Is it a cracker jack esque popcorn

[Chick McGee]

and nuts and something else is in

[Josh Arnold]

there or is it that, like it's almost cereal?

[Christy Lee]

Like I thought it was like Cheeto.

[Chick McGee]

I want to say there's some cheese in there. Yeah, everything.

[Josh Arnold]

I've never tried it, but I've definitely seen it.

[Ali Breen]

Oh yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it shaped like asses?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I think it's shaped like.

[Chick McGee]

No pirates.

[Christy Lee]

Pirate booty is like at Whole Foods. I'm surprised you don't have that in your pantry. I bet you do.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, I miss a lot it

[Josh Arnold]

seems like a puffed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it's like a, it's like a, it's like a yoga wearing mom's snack for their kids.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, but it's called pirate's booty.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, but it's healthy. Yes, well, a healthier version of snacks.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

But. Yeah, but it just was funny to see the word booty.

[Chick McGee]

Is it B O O T I or B O O T Y?

[Tom Griswold]

This is the Associated Press. It is spelled B O O T Y. But it's, this is really interesting because one would think it's finders keepers. Yeah, it isn't. And this, this is a really complicated story involving millions of dollars in gold coins.

[Christy Lee]

You didn't even put booty in the story.

[Chick McGee]

Don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yes, I had. I edited it.

[Chick McGee]

And don't. Treasure hunters, like, they.

[Tom Griswold]

Wherever.

[Chick McGee]

It depends on where they find the treasure. Underneath the sea. Yeah, depends on. Yeah, like who owns certain countries. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This thing.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's the Dominican Republic's treasure. What?

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What are you talking about?

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't see them diving. Risky in their life.

[Josh Arnold]

Right?

[Tom Griswold]

This, this sounds like it's going to be a movie. But anyway, this guy's getting out of jail after 10 years.

[Josh Arnold]

I like that he's keeping his mouth shut. He did the time. He never said a word.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. He learned the two greatest lessons in life. You don't rat on your friends and you keep your mouth shut.

[Josh Arnold]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

So we'll see what happens with that story.

[Chick McGee]

You remember the Deep, Tom? The movie the Deep? It was about a treasure and.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, this one is the gigantic. That movie was famous for the beginning and with a certain woman wearing a T shirt underwater.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

And her cans.

[Tom Griswold]

That's all anyone talked about.

[Chick McGee]

Her hair.

[Christy Lee]

They were nice.

[Chick McGee]

Well, have you seen them?

[Tom Griswold]

See?

[Chick McGee]

Even she knows.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I mean, to do that wearing a scuba outfit.

[Chick McGee]

It was more of a snorkeling scene. Maybe it was. Maybe it was a scuba.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought she was wearing full scuba.

[Chick McGee]

I. I know whatever she was wearing, you'd plainly see her.

[Tom Griswold]

But obviously with scuba gear on, this face is kind of.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, but her hair was flowing out and.

[Tom Griswold]

And who's looking at her face? Serious.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what we're talking about.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, this.

[Chick McGee]

Jacqueline, have you ever been with the woman and not really taking a look at her face until way after? Be honest. And then I'm going to ask you next. Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

Halloween party.

[Christy Lee]

Halloween party. Remember that?

[Chick McGee]

The mouse and the dog and a pig. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I've never done that.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I've never.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I gotta like the face.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I forgot my wallet at an apartment. Had to go back for it. Oh, that was. That was rough.

[Tom Griswold]

Daylight.

[Christy Lee]

How long did it take you to

[Tom Griswold]

realize you didn't have your wallet during daylight? There was a distinct difference.

[Chick McGee]

I got about halfway back to the hotel.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, okay.

[Christy Lee]

At least you didn't wait till, like, the next day or so.

[Tom Griswold]

You want to see her during daylight.

[Chick McGee]

You know, my love, not really lasting

[Tom Griswold]

that long until you got to the elevator.

[Chick McGee]

Can I have my wallet, please?

[Tom Griswold]

Why did you keep. Why did you keep. Why don't you keep 50 for the plastic surgery fund?

[Chick McGee]

I have to check in for a flight. I need my. I mean, my license.

[Josh Arnold]

Wouldn't mind getting that.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up later on in the show, if you're a fan of the band Rush, we are going to be speaking to an authority on the band who has a new book out celebrating 50 years of the band Rush. They're doing a special a tour with a slightly new configuration. But if you're a fan, you'll want to stick around.

[Christy Lee]

Ladies, we'll go have tea.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, largely male audience, certainly. We do have some mail to get to coming up this morning. You can reach us how?

[Christy Lee]

Christy Lee, Bob and [e-mail]. that easy.

[Tom Griswold]

Our first letter is. Has a musical component.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Are we diving Right in.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But before we get to our letters, I do want to play this. And Christy, I will get you the version of. From the Associated Press that refers to the. The booty.

[Christy Lee]

In this, I can add booty. It's. I can write. I don't know if you know that.

[Tom Griswold]

No, but I mean, it's actually in the Associated Press story, which I think is rather.

[Chick McGee]

Well, maybe we shouldn't place ourselves commit to booty. Maybe there are some other words we could use other than booty.

[Tom Griswold]

Treasure.

[Chick McGee]

Treasure's a nice one. Onion, I believe, is part of slang, yes.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, we're talking about booties, like the behind.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, we're talking about the treasure booty. The guy that has the gold coins.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I'm talking about dead ass. Okay? That's what I'm talking about.

[Tom Griswold]

You mean.

[Announcer]

Look at that booty.

[Tom Griswold]

Show me the booty, ladies and gentlemen.

[Josh Arnold]

I want the booty back up the booty. I need the booty. I like the booty.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, what a booty.

[Announcer]

Shaking that booty.

[Josh Arnold]

I saw the booty. Bring on the booty. Give up.

[Tom Griswold]

This is part of Tim's tribute to the Philadelphia sound.

[Chick McGee]

Real quick. Slang terms for booty. Buns, cake, peach, dumpy, dumper, dumpy, backside, bottom, tush, caboose, bubble wagon, Ba, Bada, badonk, badonk.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I think you're. Yeah, I think Christy may have that one. Right.

[Josh Arnold]

Honky tong.

[Chick McGee]

And don't forget my favorite gat. G Y A T. I love that. As in girl, yo ass thick.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, I meant slaying the other way, like plunder. Oh, Loot spoils that kind of booty. The hall. What do they say? Hated this. The score.

[Josh Arnold]

One last score. Yeah, that's always one big last score.

[Tom Griswold]

Literally the pot of gold. In this case, gold coins. We'll find out about that great treasure story coming up.

[Chick McGee]

I ain't going back to prison.

[Tom Griswold]

Speaking of treasure, you might be expending your treasure every month. Take a look at those credit cards. It's real easy, especially right about now. You've had a great Christmas, and you got through Valentine's Day. And you say, I'm just gonna let this one. Let this debt ride for another month. Pretty soon you got a huge amount of money on your credit cards.

[Chick McGee]

And she says, what about my birthday?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. Well, you've got all that interest you're paying credit cards. It's over 20%. In many cases, it gets really serious. A friend of mine got to the situation where every paycheck was just paying the interest on his credit cards. But what's kind of interesting, that's happened in the last several years here in the US Of A. A lot of people, if you're a homeowner, your house may be worth sometimes double what it was worth a while back. In the case of my friend, one of his neighbors sold, sold the house and he went, oh, my God, you sold that thing for twice what you paid for it. The reason I bring this up is if you consider doing a refinance, you can grab the equity in your house without selling your house and maybe pay off that high interest debt that you've got. The experts on this are some of the folks at American Financing. I bring this up because they've got some special programs going on right now. Uh, some of their numbers include an average savings of about 800 bucks a month after a refi, as they like to say, check this out because they're doing a special thing right now where you could actually delay two mortgage payments. So talk to the consultants at American Financing. They know what they're doing. Uh, check them out. And you can do that by going to american financing.net bob and tom or just tell them the Bob and Tom show sent you, by the way, you can even call them 866-889-2611. You may be able to take advantage of that equity that you have in your house. You didn't even know about it. Get the details.

Oh, sorry.

[Chick McGee]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

That's Shaquille, sister.

[Chick McGee]

How are you?

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Good. How are you?

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Changing my name to Shaniqua.

[Christy Lee]

That'll be good.

[Chick McGee]

Attaboy.

[Tom Griswold]

Just keep.

[Chick McGee]

You just keep pitching them there, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

We have some letters to get to. Ladies and gentlemen, by the way, I should introduce. That was Chick Migge over there at the orange. Orange insoles.com sports desk.

[Chick McGee]

And look at this. I have an orange marker.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's nice.

[Chick McGee]

Or orange insoles.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good.

[Chick McGee]

Back to you, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, let's see now. We have our letters. Our letter segment. We do this every morning about this time or every evening, depending on where you are and what you're listening to.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a minute. I'm not listening in the morning. I'm confused.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll say hello to all of you. Listening in, not in real time. That's become a phrase you hear all the time.

[Christy Lee]

Real time.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This happened in real time.

[Chick McGee]

I've said it before. I'll say it again.

[Tom Griswold]

How.

[Chick McGee]

When was the last time you watched a network television show as it's being broadcast on that Network?

[Tom Griswold]

I watched 8 Bargazzi's game show in real time.

[Chick McGee]

Wednesday at 9 Eastern, I believe.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, actually, I was watching. It was a rebroadcast. I was watching on Friday. So you're correct. It wasn't. I. I stand. I stand corrected. Times are very confusing. Josh, help me with this. I was trying to explain it to my dogs the other day.

[Josh Arnold]

You were?

[Tom Griswold]

They don't get it. They don't. I mean, my dogs are greatly affected by the change to daylight time, although they're kind of happy about it now because they're going to eat an hour earlier. But that leads us to our letter, by the way.

[Chick McGee]

I want to tell you that of all the advice you've given me, I have started to having a meeting with my dogs. And it's. I'm following your lead. I go home and I ask them, did you look for work today?

[Tom Griswold]

Uh huh.

[Chick McGee]

Anybody?

[Christy Lee]

I hate to admit.

[Tom Griswold]

Anybody get hired today? Golden retrievers. Aren't they considered working dogs?

[Chick McGee]

When are you going to get off your ass and help me? Stuff like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Nothing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Nope.

[Tom Griswold]

It's very embarrassing when the postman rings you. That check.

[Chick McGee]

It really is.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. Now. Dear Bob and Tom show. I saw Ted Nugent with the Amboy Dukes at Wright State University in the early 70s.

[Chick McGee]

Wright State Raiders, baby.

[Tom Griswold]

Ticket price $5. By the way, it was the best concert I've ever seen. Ted Nugent was on top of a stack of speakers and he jumped off while playing.

[Chick McGee]

It's all about the music.

[Tom Griswold]

At the time he was primarily popular in Detroit and of course is known as the Motor City Madman. I bought the album and wore it out. I was mentioning this. So that was it. Ted's birthday. I forget why we were talking about Ted Nugent. We had a great interview with Ted in Nashville a few years ago. Really cool.

[Chick McGee]

He was fun and he came out here and the Freddy Mall. He shot bow and arrows at guitars.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. Ted is an interesting guy.

[Chick McGee]

He'd kill some stuff for us.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I'm a huge fan of this great solo from if it's too loud, you're too old. This is. I think it was.

[Chick McGee]

I like this part.

[Tom Griswold]

That is what, 7:17?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

I think so. A lot of a weird stereo mixing on this one. I'm glad you got to see the show. That was from Jim Jackson.

[Chick McGee]

Double J.

[Tom Griswold]

Very psychedelic or very melodic tunes. A great solo in the middle of this tune.

[Chick McGee]

Despite the solo, it's a very melodic.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, very melodic. Now, thank you for taking the time and trouble to write us and Happy birthday, Ted. We have coming up for you guitar fans. We're going to be talking to a guy who is an authority on the band Rush. They're going on a and tour.

[Chick McGee]

If you are a guitar fan, we're going to have the guitar man coming up with a song, aren't we?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, I'm your own guitar man.

[Chick McGee]

That's it. Ray Stevens is the guy who did that guitar Zan.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, sorry.

[Pat Godwin]

My guitar Zanya.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, guitar. Guitar man is bread.

[Pat Godwin]

Famously. Someone did that at my talent show and I'll never forget it.

[Chick McGee]

And they could not play the guitar.

[Josh Arnold]

High school.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Did I ever do it for you?

[Josh Arnold]

No, you have done it for me.

[Chick McGee]

But. But everybody needs to hear Snow Guitar man by Brad.

[Tom Griswold]

This is something you did.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, no, no, no, no. I was in the talent show. But Paul Fleming, who had just started to play Guitar. Decided to do the Guitar man by Bread.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Pat Godwin]

And here's how it went. Who draws the crowd? And play so loud, baby. It's the guitar man. Kind of ironic in a way that.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Did he do the solo in the middle?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

What'd you do with that?

[Pat Godwin]

Benny and the jets in full Elton John regalia. Kicking up with my feet. Don't.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

I bet I brought the house down.

[Christy Lee]

I bet it did that.

[Tom Griswold]

Did pretty well on the piano.

[Christy Lee]

Did you win piano?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, we did. It wasn't a contest. We all just.

[Chick McGee]

That means. No, he did not win that.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you win? Yeah. Ours weren't contests either. They were just kids. Went up, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

It was fun.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

It's great. Oh, cool. Speaking of you being on stage, when's that special coming up?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom Show.

[Pat Godwin]

Thanks, chicken.

[Chick McGee]

Another listener. Email bob and tomobandtom.com we play in a pickleball tournament this past weekend and we haven't explored this. We have fantasy football team names. We have bowling team names, but we haven't explored pickleball team names.

[Tom Griswold]

But there's some great ones.

[Chick McGee]

And this letter writer, Jamie, she played against a team called the Grandma Hammers. And there's. There's Grandma and there's the Grandma Hammer's T shirt.

[Christy Lee]

That's pretty funny.

[Chick McGee]

She. The grandma said, we put the hammer down and showed the grandmas. So there. There you go. Thank you, Jamie, for that. That picture. Yeah, the Grandma's Hammer.

[Tom Griswold]

Notice that. What is it? The old Office Depot is now a pickleball.

[Christy Lee]

Which Office Depot?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, it's Pickler.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Not too far from here.

[Chick McGee]

Not only that, but open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

[Josh Arnold]

[Chick McGee]

And they have to turn people away? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Nicely true.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

[Tom Griswold]

Dear Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

I know. Try not to say anything about how big your sister is. Go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

My son, 4 years old. I asked him what he wanted to get Mommy for her upcoming birthday. He said, get her a bracelet clock.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's nice.

[Christy Lee]

A nice watch. Yes, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way, she really liked the watch we gave her. Thank you, Dave in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Thank you for taking the time and trouble to send us a letter. Christy, what are you looking at?

[Christy Lee]

I have this from Chuck. Sorry to bother you while you're online shopping. Chick's entrance entrance music should be Susie Quattro stumbling in.

[Tom Griswold]

There he is.

[Ali Breen]

[Chick McGee]

Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Norman and Susie Quatro. All right. A partial standing ovation. I like it.

[Tom Griswold]

This doesn't really have it actually.

[Chick McGee]

Here's my walk up music. Are you ready? Oh, your red scarf matches your eyes. You close your cover before striking.

[Tom Griswold]

If you were in tape.

[Chick McGee]

Father had the ship.

[Tom Griswold]

Ship. It's a ship.

[Chick McGee]

Solving you has made me banana.

[Tom Griswold]

There's an interesting thing that happens with the mind.

[Christy Lee]

That was.

[Tom Griswold]

That was. You've really got to hit that p hard.

[Josh Arnold]

Ship.

[Christy Lee]

Fitter.

[Tom Griswold]

Ship.

[Christy Lee]

Ship.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's really difficult to get that out. So sorry. What else is happening over there?

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom show. Hello, everyone. Hello. My name is Scott. I heard chicks report of wiener dog races at a hockey game. I live in Cincinnati. We the minor league hockey team Cincinnati Cyclones. Very fine organization. They have a big time night that was actually just this past weekend. They call it Pucks and pups night. You can bring your dog to the game. They have $2 hot dogs during the game. And during the second intermission they have wiener dog races on the ice. Goal line to center ice. It's been going on for quite some time here. Just thought I want you guys should know. Cincinnati Cyclone wiener dog.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. We were watching some cool wiener dog races just the other day.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I believe yesterday. Was it the birthday of Chuck Norris?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that's what you told us.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm trying to remember what year Chuck was born. But he's a man of a certain age. Certainly. And I got this letter a Dear Bob and Tom show. You mentioned Chuck Norris's birthday, Mother.

[Christy Lee]

I bet it has something to do with birthday cake, doesn't it? Candles.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Chuck Norris doesn't eat birthday cake.

[Tom Griswold]

Birthday cake?

[Pat Godwin]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute.

[Pat Godwin]

Nobody's in.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

These are not Chuck Norris jokes.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

They are Chuck Norris facts.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

According to Bill in Dayton, Ohio. Chuck. Chuck Norris once clogged a toilet taking a piss.

[Christy Lee]

God, Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

Tom is really enjoying that one.

[Chick McGee]

Tom likes.

[Christy Lee]

He is so red in the face right now.

[Chick McGee]

That's got everything you love.

[Tom Griswold]

That is just so stupid. Chuck Norris can slam a revolving door. Chuck Norris can win a game of Connect 4 in three moves.

[Chick McGee]

I'm really enjoying this.

[Christy Lee]

I know you do.

[Tom Griswold]

So sorry. Chuck Norris once told a woman to calm down and she did.

[Josh Arnold]

Whoa.

[Christy Lee]

Now you're that.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. Chuck Norris. Kind of do infinity twice. I certainly enjoy them. Thank you. Thank you, Bill. Apparently no one else does.

[Chick McGee]

Please never stop playing the clip of Josh Imitating. His family. Vomiting. Maybe the funniest sound there is. That's from Chris.

[Josh Arnold]

That absolutely makes us laugh at the lake or, you know, when somebody.

[Chick McGee]

You just stand up and do that just out of nowhere.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, we don't. We just. We'll hear it often. Go. Oh, boy. John had a little too much.

[Chick McGee]

Does that happen every. Every time he.

[Josh Arnold]

No, not every time.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's good.

[Tom Griswold]

Yesterday I saw a book review of Liza Minnelli's autobiography.

[Christy Lee]

You need to read better.

[Chick McGee]

You went ahead and. And read the review?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, yeah, I did.

[Chick McGee]

And interestingly enough, she doesn't understand why she can't find love.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, kind of. I think she's been married. I believe it was four times. Her memoir is called Kids with. You hear this? And here's another article about it. Headline. Liza Minnelli says her center of gravity crumbled after finding husband Peter Allen in bed with a man.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, come on. She knew.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, so. But that man. Super talented. I'm a huge fan.

[Chick McGee]

Who? The guy Peter was sleeping with.

[Tom Griswold]

Peter Allen.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Peter Allen.

[Tom Griswold]

Love that song, Rio. But of course, my favorite version of that song is a friend of the show, Hugh Jackman. Okay, but. So I'll have to. I'm. Have to read that book. I'll tell you all about it. Secrecy.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, man.

[Christy Lee]

You're gonna read that book.

[Tom Griswold]

Eliza with a Z. Yeah, I know.

[Christy Lee]

I'm.

[Chick McGee]

I. I can't believe I'm saying this, but the last two or three books I've read, listened to are Tom's recommendations, and they were fabulous. Yeah, I haven't read that Frank Langella book.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Is.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but Liza, Liza, you're not getting.

[Chick McGee]

I. I can't see any way out of it. He recommends it. I read.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I. I was just reading the review. I've not read the book. Book. That Frank Langella book is great.

[Chick McGee]

Wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

You get a chance. Frank, you know, Frank Langella is.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Famously played Dracula on Broadway. He's been. You'd recognize him immediately.

[Chick McGee]

I can't be the only one. I thought his name was Franklin Jella. Am I. Yeah. Am I the only one?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, what's he. Is he most famous for the movie Dracula?

[Josh Arnold]

He played Nixon and Frost.

[Chick McGee]

Nixon, yeah. And he was real tall.

[Josh Arnold]

He's Masters of the Universe.

[Chick McGee]

He got nominated, Right, for How'd you spell Angela?

[Tom Griswold]

What's the robot movie like? Frank and the Frank.

[Chick McGee]

Me and Frank and Me or something like that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a great movie, too.

[Josh Arnold]

Anyway, Robot and Frank.

[Chick McGee]

Yep, that's it.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go. We were all close the opening segment of that book is one of the greatest things you'll ever read.

[Chick McGee]

Do you every now and then feel like you're mine or Tom's nephew visiting us at the old folks home and you spend your whole morning correcting us and helping us get a thought out?

[Josh Arnold]

You know it's funny is. I, I, I used to be that kid who I would help my grandma or my mom remember actors names and stuff. And now I'm getting there.

[Pat Godwin]

Who was that?

[Josh Arnold]

What was that guy's name? Yeah, I'm starting to slip into.

[Pat Godwin]

It was that movie no country for Grumpy Old Men.

[Chick McGee]

I saw that. And what's his name? Javi Beans.

[Josh Arnold]

What is it?

[Chick McGee]

Javier Bardem. That's it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, we'll return. We have some great stuff in the news, including an exciting study out of Oxford University.

[Josh Arnold]

What are those Brits up to?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I can't, I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't believe you can read that. I, that is exactly correct. I wrote on the Read exactly as written.

[Pat Godwin]

What is it about?

[Josh Arnold]

Oxford.

[Chick McGee]

Cambridge have quite the rivalry.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you want to. You could just read, just read the headline.

[Christy Lee]

Researchers in Oxford have been studying great tits for 75 years.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure. Yeah. Yeah. You got a. Probably with binoculars.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably, yeah. Oh, it's a bird. The great, the great.

[Christy Lee]

Well, there's a tit mouse.

[Tom Griswold]

No, that's, that's what they're called.

[Chick McGee]

And they call them.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what they're called.

[Chick McGee]

That.

[Christy Lee]

The great tits.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Like a titmouse, you'd call that just.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what they're called. I'm, I'm. That's.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there's also a tit willow, I think, isn't there? Or is that a tree?

[Tom Griswold]

But we'll find out.

[Josh Arnold]

A willow. Yes, but I don't know if there's. Alchard is studying the great of the world.

[Chick McGee]

And once again, that's Cambridge. Thank you for helping me.

[Tom Griswold]

Oxford and Cambridge is as chick. As Chick pointed out, they have a very serious.

[Chick McGee]

I've got a great. I've got a great idea coming up from the mailbag that if you're going to a tavern tonight.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

I'll make your visit even better.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, and we have news from Ohio. Oh, Witnesses insist this wasn't your average wildlife encounter. Way bigger than a bear.

[Chick McGee]

There it is.

[Josh Arnold]

Big news.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, is it Bigfoot in Ohio?

[Josh Arnold]

This is maybe saying this.

[Chick McGee]

Let's just wait and see. I'll let you know how it shakes out.

[Tom Griswold]

I hope it's in a rural area.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, if you have Big feet.

[Chick McGee]

This has become our most requested feature.

[Josh Arnold]

What if I held this up? I held up my paper, and on the back you saw that I had written, if you have big feet, I've been planning it out.

[Tom Griswold]

Or even small feet. I understand. Is that correct, Josh?

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely. I mean, you know that they can get sore. And, you know, sometimes your back is sore, your knees complain, your heels ache, those arches of your feet can collapse. That's right. They're not as sturdy as they once were, are they? My gosh, what is. Well, look. Orange insoles may just be for you. OrangeInsouls.com is the place to go. Most people blame their age for all the ailments that they start suffering.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no.

[Josh Arnold]

It could just be your foundation. Orange insoles deliver rigid arch support that do not collapse by lunchtime with a deep heel cup that cradles your heel and absorbs shock naturally. So whether you're walking, standing a lot, whatever you do for your job, maybe you're in construction on a job site or working in a hospital or a

[Tom Griswold]

classroom, man, you're a gym teacher doing jumping jacks. Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

You absolutely need the right support there. Teachers have it rough enough already without having aches and pains to go along with.

[Tom Griswold]

If a lady gym teacher. Are those jumping jills?

[Christy Lee]

No, we called them jumping jills.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a good question. Because the lumberjack.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's about time we change that.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Lumberjack, Lumberjill.

[Chick McGee]

But they're still called jumping jacks, right?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think they should be because

[Chick McGee]

you guys came up with the word burpees. I never heard of that in my life.

[Christy Lee]

You never heard of a burpee?

[Josh Arnold]

It's not quite a jumping jack.

[Tom Griswold]

That's like a squat thrust.

[Chick McGee]

That's what we. That's what we call down a bit.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you did?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The squat thrust sounds like. Oh, that sounds like a sex move, though. I gave her the old squad thrust.

[Chick McGee]

You don't have to.

[Josh Arnold]

Oftentimes there's a jumping jack at the end of a burp. Burpee. You can jump and put your hands together. It depends.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

No matter how you slice it. Burpees. Awful. Orange insoles. Wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

Look. You've upgraded your truck tires to make sure your truck is correctly aligned and on proper foundation. You've upgraded your mattress so that your body is on something comfortable.

[Josh Arnold]

She's very, very.

[Christy Lee]

Well, look at her dad. He has a lot of hair.

[Josh Arnold]

She looked at me, but I don't think she. She probably still has those blurry eyes.

[Chick McGee]

I bet you Alsman had, what was it? Indigestion. That means a lot of hair.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that a thing?

[Chick McGee]

That's a thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat, you look very nice. Please don't listen to him.

[Tom Griswold]

You never wear shorts. Listen, sleeves. Unless they're golf.

[Chick McGee]

You're like, you're like a Baptist minister.

[Christy Lee]

Josh wears short sleeves in the summer.

[Josh Arnold]

I do. Does it bother you?

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I had no idea.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We're long sleeves and roll them up.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Pat Godwin]

I think what bothers you is what's going on back here.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You know what bothers me? How attracted I am to him.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yes.

[Chick McGee]

That's what bothered.

Let go. Let it go.

There's Josh Arnold.

There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick with a letter. Here's Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, if you've got a letter from the orangeinsouls.com sports desk, I say read it.

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom Show, I don't know how tech savvy you folks are, but here we go. I heard you. This is Mike in Iowa. I heard you guys talking about entrance music for when you walk into the studio. Much like major league baseball players choose their walk up music to the play. I often when I go out to a tavern or a bar, I will sit in my car outside of said tavern and I put a song on the jukebox before I walk in the door.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

So probably via his phone and it's yes. Touch Tunes, I believe is an app. You, you can program a Jukebox from Away from the Tavern.

[Tom Griswold]

That's cool.

[Chick McGee]

And it's also, I think there's something called Rockbot is also another app. Depending on my mood, I walk into Sweet Emotion by Aerosol.

[Pat Godwin]

That's good.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good.

[Christy Lee]

Very good.

[Chick McGee]

If you want Blood AC DC or a Voodoo Child. Jimi Hendrix.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Or as some would call it, Voodoo chili.

[Josh Arnold]

All pretty cool.

[Tom Griswold]

I think if Ms. Hooker ever does the cookbook I want her to do, she should do the recipe for Voodoo chili.

[Chick McGee]

I, I, I don't know if she will or not, but I'm guessing she won't.

[Tom Griswold]

Christy, we're saying that because back in the day, Yes, I heard this on the air. One of the DJs who perhaps was less informed about contemporary music at the time, introduced the, the Jimi Hendrix song as Voodoo chili because it's sort of spelled in the vernacular on the sort of. Yeah, but Voodoo Child, I believe, is, it's awkward to say. I can see that. You can tell by the way I say it. But Voodoo chili, of course, would be a traditional chili with a 12 inch sausage.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my gosh.

[Josh Arnold]

Blackened.

[Chick McGee]

Do you remember where you were when you first heard this? Man, I lost my mind. I couldn't believe it.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

How's he doing that? Is what I said. How's he doing that, Tom? That's a wild.

[Josh Arnold]

Remember when I first heard Hendrix, I asked my dad, I was like, man, you know, Jimi Hendrix, do you like that? Not really.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

And it separated us a little bit.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

It was one of the first moments where I went, oh, my dad's not as cool as I thought.

[Tom Griswold]

Who was your dad's favorite band?

[Josh Arnold]

You know, who he love? He would always, he loved a bunch of music.

[Chick McGee]

Blood, Sweat and Tears.

[Josh Arnold]

There was an album he played all the time. The, the Shy Lights.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Or the Chime. He wore that thing. Really?

[Christy Lee]

That's a good one.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

A little bit of context. Josh's dad, Larry, a Vietnam combat veteran, two tours of duty in Nam. I thought you were going to say Credence or the Doors.

[Josh Arnold]

No, he was more of a Motown. He loved Motown. He loved Shylight's.

[Tom Griswold]

Wonderful.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah. So they are wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I, I'm not all that familiar, I don't think, with.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you know. Oh, girl.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I remember that.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm in trouble if you leave or something like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I love that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Remember what my dad played?

[Josh Arnold]

What was that?

[Pat Godwin]

Judy Garland at Radio City Sing. Zing, zing went the trolley.

[Chick McGee]

What was that song that Judy. And who was it? Julie Andrews did. Did a. Oh, right. Yeah. Duet with TV show. Yeah. On some TV show. I forget what.

[Daniel Buckspan]

What.

[Chick McGee]

The song was good though. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

He was a big box. Bob Seger fan too.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, there we go. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Loved Bob Seger. Oh, you'd like the Chai Lights.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

If you've never seen Bob Seeger dance, don't cheat. Shortchange yourself.

[Josh Arnold]

Every now and again from my parents bedroom.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I would walk by and I would just hear, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Dad's about to do whatever.

[Tom Griswold]

Did he slide across the room in his socks before he hit the bed?

[Josh Arnold]

I never saw him do that.

[Christy Lee]

I think that was your dad's do it music.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know.

[Pat Godwin]

Parents had to play rock music or loud music to kind of get away with them.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. There were four boys running around. Who knows what they had to do?

[Chick McGee]

And then in the basement, what were you Roller skating music too Slippery when

[Josh Arnold]

wet was a big one. But we'd grab my dad's old party like a DJ album we'd play. He had Pac man fever.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Jump in the saddle. Oh, I love that Curly Shuffle.

[Tom Griswold]

The Curly Shuffle. I love the curly.

[Josh Arnold]

We wore those out.

[Christy Lee]

Of course you did.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you didn't like the curly shuffle.

[Pat Godwin]

I can hear it because every comedy club uses that as the intro.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, Becky, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

With curly shawl.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

That's so funny.

[Pat Godwin]

That's the big intro.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, we got another intro music letter coming to you in just a couple minutes. Also coming up today, we have reindeer. In the news. NFL news involving the Raiders and the Ravens. We have the a project involving a bird known as the Great Tit.

[Chick McGee]

I'll give you a hint. In sports, if you Ravens fans are getting excited to cheer on Max Crosby. Not so fast, my friends.

[Daniel Buckspan]

We'll be back.

[Tom Griswold]

But will he still be a Raider?

[Josh Arnold]

How?

[Tom Griswold]

Wouldn't it be weird to go back to the team? Hey, you guys traded me.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it's quite a different team than when he left. They've done some pretty nice.

[Tom Griswold]

What do you say to the. Hey, I thought you guys didn't want me.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm not gonna try.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, you didn't want us, Max. That's what happened.

[Tom Griswold]

I see we are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom show in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Chrissy Lee at the news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Hello, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, there's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, man. There's Josh Arnold with.

[Josh Arnold]

With some fascinating information for all them of.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I can't wait.

[Chick McGee]

And not wait. There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick Magee and hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I must say Good morning. Chip McGee at the Originsouls.com sports test. But Josh Arnold at the Sidekick chair. What's the big news?

[Josh Arnold]

This is big, Tom. A ton of Bigfoot activity being reported in Ohio over the last several days.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh boy.

[Josh Arnold]

As of this morning, there have been six high credibility reports.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa.

[Josh Arnold]

In just the last four days.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

That's right. Now, are you familiar with Mantua County?

[Chick McGee]

I am not.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean it, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

You got on that county.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there a city in Mantua?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, it's a. Oh, actually, you know what? Some of these were in Portage county as well, but all, all in Ohio. What's known as the Greenway highway is where they think the Sasquatch travel.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they drive or do they walk?

[Josh Arnold]

They walk, of course.

[Christy Lee]

Migration time. Because the seasons are changing.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, that's, that's what's interesting here.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe they're upset about changing to daylight time.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe it could be affecting them. We really change my watch. Here's the timeline of events, okay. As laid out by the Bigfoot Society and the Bigfoot Mapping Project. All right. These are people who know what they're doing. Yeah, this is the cream of the crop here. On March 6, a local researcher observed a 9 foot tall brown male standing 120 yards away. It retreated at high speed when it realized it was being watched, as they often do.

[Tom Griswold]

The guy didn't have like an iPhone with him.

[Chick McGee]

Tom, you explain that.

[Tom Griswold]

Couldn't you just whip out your phone?

[Josh Arnold]

So when he. Well, did you not hear that he retreated at a high speed? The Bigfoot.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you have the wherewithal to pull a phone out of your pocket?

[Chick McGee]

No, he doesn't. He doesn't have.

[Josh Arnold]

That's what I'm challenging him, is what

[Chick McGee]

takes him to Take a picture of his.

[Josh Arnold]

The fumbling, the opening, the.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

A second witness then reported on March 7, an eight foot figure with long arms and dark brown hair. He also heard some footsteps and grunting. And then he located oversized, muddy footprints.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, now listen to this.

[Josh Arnold]

The sightings heated up on March 9 with three on the same day. The first was in Garrettsville when a hiker encountered an eight foot Sasquatch covered in black fur before immediately evacuating the area. Now, I don't know if evacuating I

[Tom Griswold]

would be evacuating my bowels.

[Josh Arnold]

Just over an hour later, another witness reported a 15 second face to face encounter with a 10 foot black figure and a strong musky odor. All of that tracks. Now you might be saying, well, how come there are some that are 8ft? How come there are some 10ft? This is a they. They've gone out of the way to say there might be more than one. A family. I think it probably is more of a Rashomon issue. Some thought it looked like 8ft, some thought not 10. Some, you know, that kind of thing.

[Christy Lee]

Well, there has to be more than

[Josh Arnold]

one, because later that evening, a six foot brown figure was running with an impossibly long stride. And I know what I saw, says the person.

[Chick McGee]

Impossibly long strike.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. And they're. They're continually continuing to travel east. So they're going west to east.

[Christy Lee]

So do they like Pennsylvania? Is that where they're going?

[Pat Godwin]

Maybe A lot of woods.

[Christy Lee]

There are Poconos. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

You could hide in it.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, Tom, don't you ever drive down those roads and go, man, there's a lot of woods out there. Who knows what's in those woods?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Do you think, wouldn't somebody hit one, though?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, they probably stay away from roads,

[Tom Griswold]

crossing the street like a deer.

[Josh Arnold]

And then, I mean, this is something to that many witnesses in that short amount of time. What do you do about it?

[Tom Griswold]

Do they sell alcohol in those counties, you think?

[Pat Godwin]

I bet there's a. Tom makes a

[Tom Griswold]

correlation between alcohol sales and Bigfoot sightings.

[Josh Arnold]

But these are all unrelated people.

[Tom Griswold]

Believe me, you drink enough booze, you become relatives.

[Josh Arnold]

Huh. Do you think this is an interesting pattern?

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely, I do. There's something out there, and I think

[Christy Lee]

there's more than one. There has to be a family.

[Josh Arnold]

There are more than one.

[Christy Lee]

Because if there only had one, it won't be able to reproduce.

[Tom Griswold]

They've never found a dead one.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, go. Go in the woods and find me a dead deer.

[Tom Griswold]

It's pretty simple.

[Josh Arnold]

Is it? I'll give You. A day. A whole day.

[Chick McGee]

A whole day.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat and I encountered a live deer once. Oh yeah. Walking up five Mile Creek in Harbor Springs.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh my God.

[Christy Lee]

Live deer all the time.

[Chick McGee]

You two on a couple's weekend?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

It was just a whole bunch of us were doing a hike.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Pride week.

[Tom Griswold]

We were talking about walk up music, ladies and gentlemen. And Christy, have you decided on what yours is going to be?

[Christy Lee]

The training Men. That's what we decided.

[Josh Arnold]

That's pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

That. That works. Yeah, that works. This comes to us from Ohio, the home of Bigfoot, apparently.

[Chick McGee]

Round on the end and high in

[Tom Griswold]

the middle, Brian writes his walk up music. Is this from the Beasty Boys? You recognize this one, Josh?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Sabotage.

[Josh Arnold]

It's good stuff.

[Chick McGee]

It's quite the video as well, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Pardon me.

[Christy Lee]

Have you ever heard it before?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I've heard.

[Josh Arnold]

It's Water gate. The video is hilarious.

[Tom Griswold]

This rocks.

[Josh Arnold]

They're like 70s cops.

[Chick McGee]

Quite involved.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's once again from Brian in Ohio. I'm familiar with. You have the what fight for your right to parties.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Their most famous, most famous tune. If

[Christy Lee]

Al Jackson.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean if you visit the license to ill and then never anything else. That is their most famous tune you ever heard.

[Chick McGee]

What is it? I don't know, but it's kind of a ballot. It's pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

No, not familiar with it. I'm sure it's very.

[Chick McGee]

Have you stopped?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, now we have a quick visit.

[Chick McGee]

Did you know panda bears were thought to be a myth until 1869?

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

And gorillas were imaginary 1847 until they actually saw one.

[Christy Lee]

So see this Sasquatch could definitely.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

There's a. There's something out there.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably some redneck in a costume,

[Chick McGee]

some

[Tom Griswold]

hillbilly with some spare time.

[Chick McGee]

I tell you what, we bought them big fake wooden feet and they have really paid.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't you think if there was some

[Chick McGee]

hunter out there paid for themselves, saw

[Tom Griswold]

a big foot, he would just take it out?

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

How come that's never.

[Chick McGee]

Listen, you take out his penis. What are you talking about?

[Josh Arnold]

There are different types of people in the world. There are those who see Bigfoot and report it because they just cannot believe what they've seen and they need to share it. There are those who see Bigfoot and go, if I tell anyone, they will think I'm insane because of people like Tom.

[Chick McGee]

I think that's far more prevalent.

[Josh Arnold]

And so they keep it to themselves.

[Tom Griswold]

And then there are people who dress up in Bigfoot suits to scare Hillbillies.

[Josh Arnold]

You're right about that.

[Chick McGee]

That has happened. You're one of those guys. When presented with absolute ironclad proof, would still not. Would still not believe.

[Josh Arnold]

The quote is high credibility reports.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

These people think wrestling is real.

[Chick McGee]

You think they. You say wrestling or wrestling?

[Josh Arnold]

Wrestling.

[Chick McGee]

Because I don't think wrestling's real.

[Christy Lee]

You don't?

[Josh Arnold]

But there's very compelling evidence.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no.

[Josh Arnold]

Leaves in the fall. I know, I know.

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom Shows a lot of shows. Dear Bob and top show a lot of letters like this about you tomorrow. Oh, here we go.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy, he can't wait.

[Chick McGee]

What is. What is the over under on how many times Tom blames his daily discombobulation on the time change in the next three months?

[Josh Arnold]

Three months.

[Chick McGee]

We all know it's simply his natural state of being. Dot, dot, dot. Don't we check? Yes. Yes, we do. Whatever the number is, take the over. I've been listening since 1990. That's Darryl from Paxico, Kansas. Oh, hey.

[Tom Griswold]

Today.

[Chick McGee]

Did I trigger a thought?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This is the 30th anniversary of our presence in Cincinnati.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, how about that?

[Tom Griswold]

On the Fox.

[Chick McGee]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

And that reminds me, we are gonna have. We're doing our annual show, by the way. It'll be at Smoke justice in Covington, Kentucky, coming up for opening day for the Reds. And I am in the process. In fact, today we should be finishing. We're going to do a special T shirt. I'm going to buy them, but then we're going to sell them and give all the money to a great organization that makes little superhero uniforms for kids that are in the hospital so they can have their pajamas be extra special. It's great. Great. Cause we'll let you know. But if you can come to the show, we'll have them there. And I think we're actually making them available on the website or whatever pretty soon. But certainly looking forward to our special broadcast. I know we've got three guests already lined up, but we'll be at Smoke justice live and in person. And a happy anniversary. Such a big thrill to be on the air in Cincinnati. And we intend to stay there for 30 more years.

[Josh Arnold]

Heck, yeah, we do.

[Tom Griswold]

There may be a slight change in the cast, by the way.

[Josh Arnold]

No change. No. It'll be Ace Godwin and I and Christie's Chicks and Tom's Heads and Jars with some nodules coming out.

[Chick McGee]

And if you think you. You've heard what was I talking about A lot now, wait till you hear that show.

[Tom Griswold]

I remember Chuck Norris.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I'd listen.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Chuck Norris, you know, he's so

[Chick McGee]

tough, his bowels stop moving.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute. Is that the joke?

[Josh Arnold]

Are you talking about yourself? I'll get the wipes.

[Chick McGee]

I forgot it. Someone who's sense of humor I admired for such a long time. And now you know, Jack Norris is tickled pink. Doris lost his virginity before his father.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you contemplate that for a minute, Josh? That is a different twist.

[Josh Arnold]

A manly guy there.

[Tom Griswold]

That is a man. I mean, I don't know how he did it, but.

[Josh Arnold]

But he did it.

[Chick McGee]

Doesn't Chuck Norris have an aura frame?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I bet he does.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

He just has to think it and the pictures appear.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's how cool Chuck Norris is. This is my. This is my favorite thing that we've been talking about. The aura frame. A U R A. There's one right behind Josh. And we have rotating pictures of all kinds of stuff involving this show. The way this thing works is you load photographs on it digitally, of course. You can be in a remote location if you like.

[Chick McGee]

There's me as a king.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you are the king.

[Tom Griswold]

But this is really cool. I'm a huge fan.

[Chick McGee]

And could you dismiss that a little quicker? That'd be great.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you mean the picture of you dressed as a king?

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no. It can't go back forward now.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, you can. We can wait for it to come around again, but we've got like 8, 000 pictures on there. It's going to be a while. You can program this thing even with videos. It's really fun. The aura frame. And we've got a special deal going for you. I should point this out. This was named number one by Wirecutter and they review all kinds of things in the digital realm. And they love this. I love it too. You can save 35 bucks, by the way, if you're a Bob and Tom show listener. The special carver matte black frame. If you use the code word Tom, go to auraframes.com. that's a U R A. Look at that. Oh, that's an old picture. Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Of you.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's in the original. That's a daguerreotone.

[Pat Godwin]

A little sepia tone there.

[Christy Lee]

Look at your hair, though. Wow. It's nice.

[Chick McGee]

That was the most advanced form of picture taking at that time.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, I remember. I had to hold real still. The aura frame. This is a great gift. And again, I loaded a bunch of these photographs on. There's Willie singing. I loaded a bunch of these photographs on at my house. But the frame was here at the station.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

It's some kind of electronic gizmo stuff. I don't know how it works.

[Chick McGee]

Witchcraft.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it involves satellites. Support the Bob and Tom show by grabbing an aura frame. Mention the Bob and Tom show when you check out. Terms and conditions apply. Once again, a $35 savings for that beautiful carver mat frame. And this makes a great gift if you've got for maybe you send it to the to grandma so she can look at the kids, et cetera, et cetera. And you can load that up. She goes out to the kitchen every morning and look at these cool new photographs. Isn't that nice? There's a photograph of Josh. He seems to be looking at a book.

[Pat Godwin]

What a show off.

[Tom Griswold]

We're going to come back to you from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Coming up, we've got a really cool treasure hunter story. We have a bizarre story involving words you can't ordinarily say on the radio, but you can today. And happy 30th to our friends at the Fox in Cincinnati.

[Christy Lee]

Did you turn the heat up to 75?

[Tom Griswold]

I have not touched the thermostat.

[Chick McGee]

I don't believe.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't even get up. I just been sitting here the whole break opening package.

[Josh Arnold]

It feels still in here.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it was. It's stuffy.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's close. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I didn't touch the thermostat. All right, well, I've been looking.

[Chick McGee]

I'm not talking about now. You probably touched it when you came in. You always do.

[Josh Arnold]

Will you touch my thermostat and watch my temperature rise?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, my gosh. Is that supposed to be analogous to some kind of of personal sexual encounter? That will not be happening to me.

[Chick McGee]

Tom Godwin. Josh Arnold, at least kiss him on the mouth. There's ace con chick McGee.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello, Tom.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I did set it at 70, so if you want to fight me, go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

69 is where we said it.

[Pat Godwin]

It's always 69.

[Chick McGee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Temperature.

[Chick McGee]

You're the kind of guy who never. 69.

[Christy Lee]

I cannot do an odd number.

[Tom Griswold]

But you were gonna say you could. Yeah, I. I cannot. Is there. That's about.

[Pat Godwin]

Well, it is a young lady.

[Tom Griswold]

The heights don't match or something, I bet you.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, you can't 69. Probably you're too short.

[Tom Griswold]

Could we possibly move on? I have things I've got to get to here. I'm opening packages.

[Chick McGee]

You're opening packages?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

You never open a package.

[Christy Lee]

What are you opening?

[Josh Arnold]

Got a shoe tire.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. This is.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Here. Wait a minute.

[Chick McGee]

Thank so much for opening the package.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you just ruin it?

[Chick McGee]

Good God.

[Josh Arnold]

What is it?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, Josh, have you ever. You used to spend time in hockey locker rooms when you're working for Rawlings?

[Josh Arnold]

Every now and again. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This is a. It's an all aul.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure.

[Chick McGee]

But you mean awl. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay. Sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

That'll tighten your laces, won't it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So you use this to tighten your laces, Christie.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Looks like a truss rod.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You fit this baby underneath the lace.

[Josh Arnold]

Kind of is.

[Tom Griswold]

And you. You pull them like.

[Chick McGee]

Let me ask you.

[Tom Griswold]

You.

[Christy Lee]

What the hell? Can't you just tie your own shoes?

[Tom Griswold]

No, these are. These are got to be right.

[Josh Arnold]

You wait. Oh, he's doing it just for his everyday shoes.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

You thought this worthy to mention on the show?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I was just hoping you. Imagine if we break.

[Josh Arnold]

Dude, I thought you bought this for, like, your ski shoes or something.

[Tom Griswold]

Your boots, they buckle.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

If you have laced ski boots for downhill skiing, you know, welcome to 1968.

[Chick McGee]

You.

[Josh Arnold]

Sorry, I didn't know much.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think you're doing your feet any favors by tightening your laces as. As tight as you can get.

[Christy Lee]

No joke. Oh, it's cutting the circulation off?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, not at all.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, well, hey, whatever you're comfortable with. But that seems. I. I'm with Chick. You want circulation.

[Tom Griswold]

This also could be used for a murder.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you'd have to be pretty exact.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no, you did. You're kind of a hari kari thing where you just. That's how it's pronounced in Japan. You would. You would thrust this into their stomach and then you rip out their guts, man.

[Chick McGee]

Or hit the cross.

[Tom Griswold]

It looks like. It looks like a large screwdriver with a little bend in it and a point on It, There was also a

[Josh Arnold]

tool that Egyptians would use. They would stick it up the nose and then pull the brain out and

[Chick McGee]

take a look and it kind of

[Josh Arnold]

looks a little like that. That'd hurt. Oh, that person's already dead.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I think, yeah. By the time it, yeah, that sounds

[Tom Griswold]

something a chef would use or a butcher, then it's not really a medical tool. So anyway, I'm sorry. Just going through my mail over here and we are going.

[Chick McGee]

How many of those do you have now?

[Tom Griswold]

How many what?

[Chick McGee]

The shoe tire.

[Tom Griswold]

I just got this one rod.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

I have a smaller one, so that's two. That's a knitting tool that I bent. So this is a heavy duty.

[Chick McGee]

You fashioned your own, what, out of

[Christy Lee]

a crochet rod or something?

[Chick McGee]

Are you kidding me?

[Tom Griswold]

No. I went to, what's that place called? The Hobby Lobby and I got, so I went to the knitting session and I got some stuff.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you have to replace that now?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I, I, it's the same shape, but it was, it wasn't heavy duty enough.

[Chick McGee]

Next time it's your Holly Hobby Lobby. Can you get me a fish with a clock in its belt?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, they make those?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, they have all that kind.

[Tom Griswold]

I used to go to Joanne Fabrics and they closed.

[Chick McGee]

Sure they did.

[Tom Griswold]

I prided myself on being one of the few heterosexual men who'd been in Joanne.

[Josh Arnold]

Joanne's done.

[Chick McGee]

Joanne.

[Josh Arnold]

She's out.

[Chick McGee]

She had all the fabric.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't even know where to go anymore.

[Ali Breen]

More.

[Tom Griswold]

But someone sent me to Hobby Lobby.

[Josh Arnold]

The Michaels have fabric.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they do. Just to say, Yes, I do.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, okay. I haven't, I, I, But I had to do some sewing over the weekend.

[Josh Arnold]

You can also go to Fabrics Fabrics. Fabric, Fabrics.

[Chick McGee]

What did you sew over the weekend?

[Christy Lee]

I think Walmart, these pants.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, but what did you sew on them?

[Josh Arnold]

And I hope your wiener falls out right there because he's unbuttoning his pants. He's showing us the hole where the button goes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you have to tighten it up?

[Chick McGee]

You sewed that up?

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You had to give it the old so called. Hey, Doc, how about one extra stitch?

[Christy Lee]

What the hell?

[Chick McGee]

Were the pants coming unbuttoned?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that. It ripped there. Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Wow. Is that like a passionate moment? That's the only way thing I could think of.

[Christy Lee]

I've never had a rip there, have you?

[Josh Arnold]

I haven't.

[Chick McGee]

And was she trying to get your pants off?

[Tom Griswold]

So.

[Chick McGee]

It's so hot.

[Tom Griswold]

A gentleman would never answer such a question.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

We can move forward here.

[Josh Arnold]

Is it like those weaved or woven belts like Tom has right there.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

This isn't a woven belt.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you know what I'm talking about. It's like if leather were wicker and

[Tom Griswold]

then this is alligator.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I saw. You know what? My eyes saw something different. I'm sorry.

[Chick McGee]

I like the O ring. The D ring.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Chick McGee]

Shaped like an O.

[Tom Griswold]

And it.

[Chick McGee]

Did you put that.

[Josh Arnold]

I've got the mission belt where it's essentially a zip tie.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, nice.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, dude, it's fantastic.

[Chick McGee]

Those are badass.

[Josh Arnold]

No more having to make my own holes.

[Christy Lee]

Well, the weave ones, you could do that.

[Tom Griswold]

Hang on a second. You make your own holes, do you?

[Chick McGee]

Aren't you tired of making your own holes?

[Tom Griswold]

Friday night, time to make my own hole.

[Christy Lee]

You guys are losing so much weight.

[Josh Arnold]

I have seasons of weight. I'm sort of a. Oh, I see what you mean.

[Tom Griswold]

Under belt.

[Josh Arnold]

Rob Thomas or Dave Matthews. Sometimes you get the chubby version, sometimes you get a thinner version.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

The weave belts, you can just make your own hole easily.

[Ali Breen]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but I don't like the look of those right now.

[Chick McGee]

You're autumn, right?

[Josh Arnold]

I am in my autumn.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

I see. Could we get to the spring of sports?

[Chick McGee]

You know, I've often wondered that myself. Well, ladies and gentlemen, the blockbuster trade sending star pass rusher Max with two X's, Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens has fallen through. And that reversal between the Ravens and the Raiders could have a ripple effect throughout the NFL. And by the way, happy New Year for the National Football League. Are you excited, Tom? The new year.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this is the official new year.

[Chick McGee]

That's exactly.

[Josh Arnold]

Happy New Year, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

The Raiders said yesterday that Baltimore backed out of the trade that was supposed to send Crosby to the Ravens for two first round picks because Max failed the physical. The deal was agreed to last Friday, but couldn't be finalized until today. And apparently it wasn't finalized. So there you go. Now, a bunch of things could happen, one of which the Cowboys. This ripple effect they're talking about. The Cowboys might get rid of the linebacker they picked up with the packers, and I forget his name right now, but they. They wanted. Cowboys wanted Max Crosby bad. They offered a first and a second, but nothing like the two first rounds.

[Josh Arnold]

Could they do a thing kind of like when you are selling a house and somebody does an inspection and they're like, you know what? We're not going to end up buying the house, but you can also waive an inspection. Could. Could the Bears Go. We're not too worried about what the physical results were.

[Chick McGee]

As they said, the physical. On behalf of the team. Everybody runs a physical. And trade Josh to the Colts, they'd run a physical. But it's up to the team receiving the player if they pass the physical.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

It's not a disinterested third party. So they may have just changed their mind and this is their excuse.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

What do you have a knee injury?

[Chick McGee]

Ryan Meniscus. Oh, well, it wasn't the acl. It was the meniscus in January.

[Josh Arnold]

Had his surgery in hockey recently. And I don't know much about. I'm a big hockey fan, but I don't get into the trades and all that stuff. But a guy was traded from the St. Louis Blues and he said no, thanks, and. And so he's not being traded. And.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, some guys have that in their contract.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right. But I always just. Whenever I see that, I'm like, that has to be awkward.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. Well, then he's walking back into the Raiders. Yeah. Hi, fellas.

[Josh Arnold]

For everybody.

[Chick McGee]

And anybody will tell you the Raiders are quite a different team. And they're even going to be more to when they pick up Mendoza, as everybody predicts they will. The. The people they. Free agent signings, they've. It's a. It's a different team than when Max left. So maybe he'll be fine to go back.

[Tom Griswold]

Awkward for management. Hi. We.

[Josh Arnold]

Exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

We rejected you. But welcome back.

[Chick McGee]

Max wanted out, though. They just are doing what he wanted to do.

[Josh Arnold]

It's got to be a little bit of awkwardness for everybody.

[Tom Griswold]

So he'll end up going somewhere else.

[Chick McGee]

Possibly.

[Josh Arnold]

Or do you want to be at the Raiders? Oh, yeah. Okay. Over the weekend, saying I want to come back. Correct.

[Tom Griswold]

I read a rumor that they didn't want him because he has red hair. They think that gingers may be bad luck.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, that's a shame.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, he's. He's a big. Have you seen him, Chrissy?

[Christy Lee]

No, I haven't.

[Tom Griswold]

He's very handsome.

[Josh Arnold]

Man, That's Vegas. Will you make a video to put online begging him to stay with your team? I would do that. All right.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

You called my bluff.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, are the Raiders allowed to say no backsies? Can they? Can they?

[Josh Arnold]

There is a no backseat clause.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think so.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Just asking.

[Chick McGee]

That's where it is. And then it's Chamberlain and Adebayo. That's right. Will Chamberlain in the NBA record books with a hundred points. And then it's Bam. Adebayo. He scored 83 last night and setting league mark for free throws made and attempted in a game. His Miami Heat went on to beat the Wizards 150 to 129. Adebayo started with a 31 point first quarter. He was up to 43 at halftime, 62 by the end of the third and 83 for the game. He was something like 36 out of 43 from the free throw line. It was just an all time.

[Josh Arnold]

I bet you're about a 36 out

[Chick McGee]

of 43, 36 out of five.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, just not. There's no pressure on you.

[Chick McGee]

I'd have to. I'd have to start. Oh, here we go. They were wearing the dark jerseys.

[Christy Lee]

No, I'm looking at Max Crosby pictures. I wasn't paying a bit of attention to what you were saying.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you.

[Christy Lee]

We have that.

[Chick McGee]

You do that all the time.

[Tom Griswold]

That'd be great.

[Christy Lee]

Why does he only have the stuff on one side of his face? The black. Whatever they put under eyes or whatever.

[Chick McGee]

He thinks he's a Braveheart.

[Christy Lee]

Is that what he thinks?

[Chick McGee]

It's a personal.

[Christy Lee]

It's a personal side of his face.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it's a personal choice.

[Tom Griswold]

Good luck.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe it's his look. Yeah, he's not a very good looking man.

[Chick McGee]

It's like, why do you wear a scarf?

[Christy Lee]

He's not my type. I'm sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, first of all. First of all, you're the size of his sperm.

[Chick McGee]

Well, what if Max Crosby is looking at our show right now and wondering, why is Christy wearing that scarf?

[Christy Lee]

I don't care what he's thinking.

[Chick McGee]

Well, maybe Max doesn't care what you're thinking.

[Christy Lee]

There you go. He's got tats on his neck. You know, he's quite a bad.

[Tom Griswold]

And Max is two X's.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he's a bad boy.

[Tom Griswold]

But he adds a third one in the bedroom. He must triple x Max. He's a bad man.

[Chick McGee]

Shut your mouth.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, Pat.

[Pat Godwin]

Yes, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

I got a request here.

[Chick McGee]

We had a something about Gardner Minshew, I hope.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's something about the world of science. We like to talk about cool stuff going on in science. We've got a great story coming up about the great tit, which is a bird.

[Josh Arnold]

The great tit.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

But I've never heard it referred to that way.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This is a new story about tomatoes.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yes, we had the tomato.

[Chick McGee]

Well, which is it? Tomatoes or tits?

[Christy Lee]

The one yesterday.

[Josh Arnold]

Some say tomato.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, the. The great tit is a bird.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

Scientists developed a tomato that smells like popcorn?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Remember that yesterday?

[Tom Griswold]

This is.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Why?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, seemingly for no reason.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. They say they have a new tomato variety now with a distinct popcorn like fragrance.

[Chick McGee]

Although is there anything better smell than popcorn popping?

[Josh Arnold]

Not really.

[Chick McGee]

Coffee.

[Tom Griswold]

So is this to make. Is this to make tomatoes more attractive to people who don't eat vegetables?

[Christy Lee]

I guess. It says. According to this, they found mutating two specific genes significantly boosted levels of a chemical compound that gives fragrant rice and popcorn their signature scent.

[Chick McGee]

I'm a mutated gene. Hello.

[Christy Lee]

Which allowed the team to reclaim lost aromatic complexity in tomatoes.

[Tom Griswold]

So there's got to be more. There's got to be more to this, I hope. Is this somehow going to help civilization by rubbing the food sources or something? Or.

[Christy Lee]

Well, maybe at one point, tomatoes smelled like popcorn. We don't know.

[Chick McGee]

You ever eat a tomato like an apple, man?

[Tom Griswold]

I have no in season, maybe August, you get tomato.

[Chick McGee]

Bingo, buddy. Bingo. Tom's got it.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't like tomatoes.

[Josh Arnold]

I like tomatoes a lot. I. I do not want to eat one like an apple.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

I love that. Josh, if there were no tomatoes, there'd be no pizza. Oh, first off, there were no pizza.

[Josh Arnold]

You're talking to the wrong guy about pizza.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, Ace is our pizza guy.

[Josh Arnold]

The man ate pizza every meal for a month, and you still look at me.

[Pat Godwin]

At least sent him to the hospital.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, I. I made him do that. Next thing you know, he's on an IV for a week.

[Chick McGee]

You know, believe it or not, the one that probably is going to go crazy and possibly hurt you is Josh. Not. Not Ace. So maybe you should be a little bit more scared of Ace.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't let these glasses fool you, Josh. I'm a warrior.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, Pat, can we do your tribute to tomatoes that smell like popcorn?

[Chick McGee]

Right into it.

[Pat Godwin]

Popcorn tomato.

[Ali Breen]

Hey.

[Pat Godwin]

Smells like a popcorn tomato. Sounds like something I'd hate. No, it's needs a popcorn tomato. It will be sloppy at the movies. Get all over your boobies.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Pat Godwin]

Get all over your boobies. Who invented this tomato? I know. It was Eufredo. What's next to pretzel avocado or a Milk Dud? Pattana, Be very afraid. Oh, of the popcorn tomato. Stop, stop, stop.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. Congratulations. Science, maybe. Move on. How about, I don't know, cancer?

[Josh Arnold]

Did you ever see Attack of the Killer Tomatoes?

[Tom Griswold]

I saw the posters. I never saw the movie. Was it good?

[Josh Arnold]

A classic? No, but that's what. That's what. That's part of the fun.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I see.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Have you Ever seen Rubber? What?

[Josh Arnold]

That actually is kind of good.

[Chick McGee]

It's a haunted tire that goes on

[Josh Arnold]

a killing spree and it kind of stares at you and then your head explodes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Chick McGee]

It rolls around.

[Tom Griswold]

He is called Rubber.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's very odd.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, sir, we have big Taco Bell news.

[Tom Griswold]

I can imagine the porno version of Rubber.

[Josh Arnold]

It's called no rubber.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, there's an explosion.

[Chick McGee]

All right, Tom, what's the biggest, what's the biggest taco you've ever seen out in the wild? You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying? Tacos, tomatoes, titmouse, you know, coming up,

[Tom Griswold]

that reminds me, we do have a recall in the world of clams.

[Christy Lee]

No, it's oysters, isn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

I thought it was oysters and clams. Yeah, we'll get to that.

[Christy Lee]

It is.

[Tom Griswold]

Both of them. We'll get to that. It's what? Norovirus. Pretty serious business. We'll touch on that. We have a really cool treasure hunting story. And if you're a fan of the band Rush, we're going to talk to the expert on the band Rush, who has written a book about Rush. Looking forward to that. Certainly. They're going back on tour.

Hi. She's at the News Center. There's Pat Godwin. Hey, Chick. There's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And I believe Tom, Jess Y Stripes. Jess has got him, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, Those are nice.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, you always say that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yipe. Stripes. Jess has got them.

[Chick McGee]

There we are.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what that's referencing?

[Jess Hooker]

Fruit Stripe Gum.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, Beech Nut Fruit Stripe Gum. Do they still make that?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, you can still get it. You can get flavor lasted five minutes.

[Chick McGee]

You can get blackjack. You can get beams. You can get all that stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

Beams preferred by astronauts.

[Chick McGee]

I believe so.

[Christy Lee]

What was that one? Tea.

[Pat Godwin]

Teaberry.

[Chick McGee]

The Teaberry shuffle, anyone? And here's Fruit Stripes. It sounds like you.

[Christy Lee]

No, by gum, Fried Beach My feet.

[Josh Arnold]

Fruit Stripe Gum. Y Stripes.

[Chick McGee]

And I believe Y stripes is a zebra.

[Jess Hooker]

It is.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I hated Fruit Stripe gum.

[Tom Griswold]

I know.

[Christy Lee]

It lasted two minutes.

[Josh Arnold]

And even the flavor when it was right out of the package.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a minute, hang on. Tom, I don't know if you heard this, and I think Christy has a complaint about Fruit Stripes gum. What's the problem?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, the flavor goes away and like. Like five minutes.

[Tom Griswold]

Five minutes is a long time.

[Josh Arnold]

Five minutes may be generous. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What kind of gum do you eat or chew practically every day?

[Jess Hooker]

It's a whole pack and you can smell it everywhere.

[Josh Arnold]

When I was a kid, Juicy Fruit. I really enjoyed Juicy Fruit. But that also the flavor profile did not last long.

[Christy Lee]

Over there. Watermelons.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that watermelon gum, that's pretty good.

[Pat Godwin]

Is it xylitol?

[Tom Griswold]

Sugar free.

[Pat Godwin]

What's going on?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

When I. They invented Bubble Yum.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I thought I was going to lose my mind. It was like pre chewed. It was. Remember?

[Christy Lee]

It was real soft.

[Chick McGee]

Bazooka was the hard gum.

[Tom Griswold]

You didn't have a brother, so you never got the classic. Hey, ABC Gum. ABC gum already been chewed. That and I. I can remember where I was standing when I fell for the 52 pickup joke.

[Chick McGee]

Hilarious.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what that was?

[Christy Lee]

Of course. Everyone knows what that.

[Tom Griswold]

That is ace. You know what that I don't remember. Oh, see, See if you had a brother. Your brother John walks up to you. You're at the cottage in Harbor Springs and it's a rainy day.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, of course.

[Tom Griswold]

You want to play. You want to play cards and your brother, you want to play? Hey, Tommy, you want to play 52 pickup?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, John, of course I do.

[Tom Griswold]

When he takes the deck of cards and goes. And they fly all over the floor and he goes, pick him up.

[Chick McGee]

My dad called it corral. Oh, you corral around on the floor and pick him up.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it's a variation, different game.

[Josh Arnold]

My uncle called it I want to see your body.

[Tom Griswold]

No, that you're. You're.

[Josh Arnold]

You're out, uncle.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's interesting.

[Josh Arnold]

I want to see your butt. Pick those up by Beechnut.

[Tom Griswold]

By gum.

[Chick McGee]

By gum.

[Tom Griswold]

My uncle called us.

[Josh Arnold]

I didn't have a Molest the uncle. But I did have.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, good for you. Congratulations.

[Josh Arnold]

I did have tickle you too long uncle.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Which is a form.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

I had. I had kiss you too long grandma. My mom's mom.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you have family members like aunts or who wanted to kiss you on the lips?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's my grandma.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, we had kiss you too long

[Chick McGee]

on the lip, tongue, the whole thing. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Thanks. That explains a lot.

[Jess Hooker]

You have kissed too many of your relatives.

[Chick McGee]

I think I have.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That's what it started. I thought if this is this hot with my grandma, what it be like with my cousin? Let's do this. Let's do this thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Could we do anything but have this discussion?

[Chick McGee]

Chrissy kissed her cousin. Him. Her. Any static first cousin.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well, wait a minute.

[Christy Lee]

Wait a minute.

[Jess Hooker]

My.

[Christy Lee]

It's my dad's half sister's son.

[Tom Griswold]

But no, still the DNA is there.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You could have given birth to some thalidomide kid.

[Chick McGee]

Lucky if you didn't joke. I don't know where mine falls, but my cousin, I, I. Maybe it's a stretch to call her my cousin because it was my mom's sister's daughter. Oh, yeah. So maybe.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know why I don't think.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I never can get these things.

[Chick McGee]

Great kisser, though. But it was my first kiss, so,

[Tom Griswold]

you know, could we.

[Chick McGee]

You ever practice kisses? Practice kissing on your hand?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Open mouth kissing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, go at it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, did you do the puppet thing? Did you go hello to me?

[Chick McGee]

Look at. Look at those luscious lips.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, man, I hope this really happened.

[Christy Lee]

That explains a lot.

[Chick McGee]

Don't make me throw up in your hand again. Last time you barfed all over my face, you crude man, you.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, you're probably wondering, Ms. Hooker, you're wondering, why the accent? Because that, of course, is the great Senior Wences.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, yes, I do know that.

[Tom Griswold]

The tremendous ventriloquist.

[Chick McGee]

Now you're gonna say, wow, Jess is really. She knows all about these.

[Ali Breen]

He's.

[Chick McGee]

It's from listening to you talk about Senior Winsas about every day.

[Tom Griswold]

People don't know who that is.

[Josh Arnold]

Who's the actor that did Senor Wences.

[Chick McGee]

It was Senior Wences was there.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you ever see the Man Attached?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You saw him right there.

[Josh Arnold]

So he was Senor Wences. Every now and then, Lois, the fist's name.

[Chick McGee]

And he performed. Had a little wig on it.

[Josh Arnold]

I remember. I remember that. So the hand is not named Senor Wences. It's the man.

[Tom Griswold]

But he would. And he would do the. Didn't he have the box? And he'd go, all right, all right. He lived to be like a hundred.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, that's Sullivan all the time.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, he was great. And I. And I. You can only imagine. What did he do?

[Christy Lee]

The parquet thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Funeral was like.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, oh.

[Tom Griswold]

You'd have to go for the casket. All right. It's all right.

[Josh Arnold]

Did Handy have a name? The.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know. I don't remember.

[Chick McGee]

It was Handy Earl.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's. It's recreated in. With Alan in the in laws with Alan Arkin and Peter Fault.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

It's so funny. They realize they are dealing with an absolute lunatic.

[Tom Griswold]

He's running. Running some banana republic. Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

And dangerously.

[Tom Griswold]

He's very upset because the church won't

[Chick McGee]

let him put a his country swag.

[Tom Griswold]

He wants to put his topless girlfriend on the flag. And he goes, the church won't let it go. No, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

He did put his girlfriend on the flag.

[Josh Arnold]

They're on the flag. Is that Mrs. General?

[Chick McGee]

That's a hell of an actor.

[Tom Griswold]

The In Law is one of the greatest movies ever.

[Christy Lee]

The original In Law.

[Tom Griswold]

They're both good, actually. Believe it or not, they're both good.

[Josh Arnold]

See the other ones is entertaining.

[Christy Lee]

Is it?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know. I don't know why they bother doing it, but yeah, it's not terrible. Real quick, do you want to do this for just safety sake, do the recall out there.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, we're not done with. I thought we were doing sports. Are we not doing.

[Tom Griswold]

We're taking a break from sports to do that.

[Jess Hooker]

I thought we were done with sports.

[Tom Griswold]

If someone's about to down some oysters, I want to save their life.

[Christy Lee]

Who's having oysters for breakfast?

[Chick McGee]

What the hell am I? Furniture? What's going on here?

[Christy Lee]

It's his show. We do what we're told. The FDA has issued a recall for raw oysters and clams over possible norovirus contamination.

[Chick McGee]

Nora, get in here.

[Christy Lee]

The agency advised restaurants and food retailers not to serve or sell raw oysters harvested by the Drayton Harbor Oyster Company and Manila clams harvested by the Lumi Indian Business Council. They were shipped to distributors in nine states. Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Nevada, New York, Oregon and Washington. Consumers of those products are experiencing symptoms of illness and they should contact, of course, their health provider if they are.

[Josh Arnold]

So we have no idea. That's the thing.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Symptoms include, of course, the. Yeah, that. Diarrhea, cramps, vomiting, fever.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you. So. Yeah, a lot of folks have these things, so be careful. If you're eating some oysters or some clams, watch out.

[Josh Arnold]

It's always a bit of a gamble.

[Jess Hooker]

It is part of the thrill. I eat them every week.

[Josh Arnold]

Every week?

[Tom Griswold]

Which one, clams or oysters?

[Jess Hooker]

Oysters.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You like an oyster tongue? I can't know.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't like the consistency. It looks like some kind of horse load.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you know, it doesn't taste quite the same.

[Tom Griswold]

Indirectly.

[Chick McGee]

Indirectly. You've just insulted Ms. Hooker, I believe.

[Josh Arnold]

I love them, too. In fact, they're the one food that I get that gave me food poisoning. And I've gone back.

[Ali Breen]

Gone back?

[Tom Griswold]

You did?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you dip them in something?

[Josh Arnold]

I put them on a saltine with some cocktail sauce and maybe some lemon juice.

[Pat Godwin]

Now, we like it with the vinegar and the onions.

[Tom Griswold]

Or mignette minette.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, that's what we like.

[Tom Griswold]

They're so gooey and slimy.

[Josh Arnold]

I get it. But there is a. There's a flavor to them, and I like it. Yeah. I like the way it oozes down my throat.

[Chick McGee]

It almost crawls down your throat.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it did. Before you eat them, do you like to rub them all over your face?

[Jess Hooker]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Usually the. The second to last one. I'll do that. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you.

[Josh Arnold]

Give me all you got.

[Chick McGee]

We could be doing sports.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, we'll come back with some sporting news.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

We have a cool drone story in the news involving a prison. Guess what's going on there?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Airlift. Airlift time.

[Tom Griswold]

We have today in history. If you're a fan of the band Rush, stick around. We're going to talk to the guy who's written the definitive coffee table book about the band. We have a cool treasure hunt and involves a guy who's been in jail for 10 years because he's not talking.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

About where the treasure might be for him.

[Josh Arnold]

I want him on my team.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We'll find out about all these things when we return to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom Show. Sponsored in part by Java House. The official coffee and refreshments of the Bob and Tom Show.

[Christy Lee]

Tired of partisan noise?

[Tom Griswold]

America's more divided than ever. But independent America is adding light to contrast all that heat.

[Christy Lee]

Independent Americans. Daily news with army veteran Paul Rykoff.

[Tom Griswold]

[Chick McGee]

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

[Daniel Buckspan]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Giving me the under the chin wave. I like that very much. There's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

Making friends? Influencing people?

[Josh Arnold]

Always.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby.

[Josh Arnold]

Howdy.

[Chick McGee]

I'm Chick McGee. At what once was called the Sports Desk, brought to you by Orange Insoles. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

It's still called TheOrangeinSouls.com sports desk. Do you have more sporting news for us?

[Chick McGee]

Kyle Teal, Sam Antonacci and Jack Caglianoni homered as Italy built a big lead and held on to stun the United States 8, 6 last night in the World Baseball Classic. The US now is done with pool play in Houston. Needs the Italians to beat Mexico tonight to be guaranteed a spot in the quarterfinals.

[Tom Griswold]

How is this possible?

[Chick McGee]

It's out of our control now. Aaron Judge said we just need some luck and we'll see what happens if we can advance.

[Tom Griswold]

Is DiMaggio playing for the Italians?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Christy Lee]

That would be something.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Where have you gone?

[Tom Griswold]

Joe DiMaggio. You playing for the Italians?

[Chick McGee]

If Mexico beats Italy, all three teams, Mexico, Italy and the United States will be three and one. And then they go to a tiebreaker. And here's your tiebreaker. It's the number of runs allowed in games between the tied teams.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that makes sense.

[Chick McGee]

The US could advance even if Mexico wins and scores at least five runs.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, this is complicated.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

All right. How about that?

[Tom Griswold]

Come on. Usa.

[Chick McGee]

Usa. USA and traditional reindeer racing in Finland brought hundreds of fans to the Sala Reindeer cup this past weekend.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that right?

[Chick McGee]

Around a thousand people braved sub freezing temperatures to attend the competition in the remote town of Sala. S A L L A. They watched and cheered as the reindeer galloped across the snow covered track, pulling their handlers behind them on skis.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, cool.

[Josh Arnold]

That sounds kind of fun.

[Chick McGee]

Solo ride a reindeer named.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait, wait, are you doing a ride? Sally Ride Salah ride.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm doing a ride Salah ride.

[Tom Griswold]

I just. I was wondering because of the silence. I'm not sure they got it. Had they gotten the reference, the silence would have been more damaged.

[Chick McGee]

The reindeer named Pompom, I guess. P o M. P M. P O

[Tom Griswold]

M, P M. The Rudolph wasn't in it. They wouldn't let him play in any reindeer games.

[Chick McGee]

Winner of the final. Winner of the final game.

[Tom Griswold]

This just proves they have rednecks in Finland. I guess they must be allowed to Bet on it or something. Hey, you want to go watch the reindeer?

[Christy Lee]

Pretty cold up there. They need something to do.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Doesn't reindeer meat like. Like delicious?

[Christy Lee]

I've never had it.

[Chick McGee]

Isn't that right? It's like filet, I think, or something like that.

[Tom Griswold]

I'd have trouble eating that reindeer.

[Ali Breen]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Why?

[Chick McGee]

Because Christmas, I mean, there's a good.

[Christy Lee]

If you look at a reindeer. Reindeer, it's.

[Josh Arnold]

If you spice it right. It's good if you use. Mrs. Dasher.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I forgive you.

[Chick McGee]

You know what?

[Tom Griswold]

That is such a stretch.

[Chick McGee]

I agree with Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

No. No one else would have ever thought of that. That's why we like you, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Plus, historically, a lot of people have eaten reindeer. Didn't they eat it at the Donner party?

[Tom Griswold]

See the Donner party, they eat people. It's a famous story about that. And then there's Donner Blitzen. He's still mining the. Mining. Mining the reindeer hunks.

[Josh Arnold]

Criticize all you want. I'm the only one working on this.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat did.

[Pat Godwin]

Nobody got stepped on. It's okay.

[Tom Griswold]

No. What'd you say, Pat?

[Pat Godwin]

I said something about it. It's also good if you get Blitzen.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. A lot of drinks with dinner and he got blitzing. That's how you said it.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just saying. I'm just saying. They didn't let Rudolph play in any reindeer games, which is. I think that.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, Pat.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, sir.

[Chick McGee]

You got booed over here.

[Josh Arnold]

I know.

[Chick McGee]

What about that?

[Josh Arnold]

Lustily.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, it happens.

[Chick McGee]

A fisherman in Texas arrested and charged with violating a fishing tournament after it was discovered he'd altered the weight of a largemouth bass he submitted for weigh in at Lake Fork.

[Josh Arnold]

You're not going to get away with this anymore. Why are guys still trying this?

[Chick McGee]

Get a load of this. Officials from the Lake Fork Lure Company contacted Texas Parks and Wildlife game wardens in Wood county to investigate a bass that was presented at weigh in raised concerns of possible tampering. The use of a metal detecting wand alerted staff to the potential of a foreign object. Game wardens conducted a necropsy of the fish and discovered three three quarter ounce weights in the fish's stomach.

[Josh Arnold]

Idiot.

[Chick McGee]

The weights showed no signs of erosion. Yes, that's how far they took it. The game wardens also found the same style and size of the weight that was in the fish's belly on the fisherman's boat.

[Josh Arnold]

What a dirt bag.

[Chick McGee]

There's the fish and there are the weights.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they look like a nice tungsten, too. You don't want to waste Those by

[Chick McGee]

Curtis Lee Daniels, 45, of Willow park, released earlier the week from the Wood County Jail. Twenty thousand dollar bond. The tournament's prize money exceeds ten thousand dollars. So the charge for violating a fishing tournament is a third degree felony.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, he's cheating.

[Chick McGee]

Daniel could face up to 10 years in prison and $10,000 in fine as a result of the third degree felon.

[Jess Hooker]

Do they fillet all the fish to double checkers? Only when they want them and they come back positive that.

[Josh Arnold]

That. Yeah, they will not.

[Jess Hooker]

So you could take other fish and shove them in the mouth of a fish if you wanted to.

[Tom Griswold]

They tried putting fillets in there.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right. But if so we've had fishing tournaments where a fish will spit up like a bluegill that it just ate. Right. And we go, oh, that's like three ounces.

[Tom Griswold]

But that's legit.

[Josh Arnold]

Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So at some of these, the high value ones, haven't they found that guys are essentially raising a fish in aquarium and then they.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, somebody had fish already staged somehow.

[Chick McGee]

Is it possible to ray a fish as a pet and have that fish know you and recognize you?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know about that, but I mean, they.

[Chick McGee]

And come when it's.

[Tom Griswold]

You could fatten it up. I. I suppose it would come when you threw fish food in.

[Ali Breen]

I.

[Christy Lee]

Do they put the fish back or do they all die in these tournaments?

[Josh Arnold]

Usually they return them all.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Ali Breen]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. In fact, a lot of times in these tournaments you're not allowed to fish in the COVID where they do the wang because they just release the fish in there. So you can't just be sitting there.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they tag them?

[Josh Arnold]

They don't tag fish that have already been caught. No. Now fishermen will kind of tag. They'll call as they go along, but they take those tags off.

[Tom Griswold]

Now we get three fishermen here at the station. You guys are pretty avid fishermen. I was having lunch with a friend of mine yesterday and he knew a guy that we were talking about weird things that people collect. And he had a friend that had for years and years and years collected antique fishing lures. Are you aware of the value?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I almost bought one at a recent boat show. It was like 60 bucks.

[Tom Griswold]

This guy's collection was worth more than six figures.

[Josh Arnold]

I have no doubt. That's insane.

[Jess Hooker]

Would you use it?

[Josh Arnold]

That's the thing. I was. Yeah, I would have. It was an original wiggle wart. They're called a crankbait. That just goes. And the way they moved back then is a little different than now.

[Tom Griswold]

And why are they different now? It's the government, isn't it?

[Josh Arnold]

It is. Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's somebody up there.

[Josh Arnold]

It was Jimmy Carter and he passed.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought you were gonna say thanks Obama. Which is kind of a.

[Josh Arnold]

It was actually earlier.

[Chick McGee]

You might. You might not know this, but is it. Should you keep them in the box, so to speak, as they do all collectibles like you shouldn't take it out of the box.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, in that case, they might. They may be worth more. Yeah. In m. In box this guy had.

[Tom Griswold]

These were apparently antique fishing lures, but I. I had no idea how valuable they were.

[Josh Arnold]

It's crazy. Very cool.

[Tom Griswold]

It's like old watches. They could. They. Sometimes they get super valuable. But who would have thought, huh?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. No one.

[Tom Griswold]

I wish I'd known that because I never met my grandfather. He died when my dad was 12. But we had his old fishing box and I would use it to go fishing. Yeah, I mean he had all kinds of old line and cat a little pamphlets all from the 1920s.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, that.

[Tom Griswold]

And I lost some real funky looking lure. It was carved out of wood and had rusty hooks on it. Yeah, I had no idea.

[Chick McGee]

But didn't you work with a rusty hooks in Tampa?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Pat, the Rusty hooks.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, oh, the Rusty hooks. The red haired porno star.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Amazing.

[Tom Griswold]

He's got.

[Pat Godwin]

What's that.

[Tom Griswold]

What's that thing he's got? Parentitis. What's that called, Josh?

[Chick McGee]

One side of it's broken.

[Pat Godwin]

I gifted my. My old stuff to Josh and Jeff. I. I'm down to just one rod and one reel.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you're done.

[Pat Godwin]

And one tackle box. No, no, I just had a lot.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, hey.

[Chick McGee]

Say what you want about Pat, but he's a one rod man.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

And you had an older buzzbait in there that is now my favorite buzz bait. Really? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What's buzz bait?

[Josh Arnold]

Electric. It's a top water and it has a little propeller when you. So when you reel it in it.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, cool.

[Pat Godwin]

Has it caught stuff for you?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Why are you asking questions? You don't care.

[Tom Griswold]

I find this fascinating.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. All right.

[Josh Arnold]

I make sound effects.

[Jess Hooker]

As of yesterday, he finds it fascinating.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. No, I like it when. I like the fact that Josh loves doing something. I mean this because when he comes in here in the morning, I know he'd rather be anywhere else.

[Chick McGee]

Why do you think that is?

[Tom Griswold]

I just have.

[Josh Arnold]

That sort of goes into our. Our belief that Tom pictures all of us. We sort of go home, sit down and just blob.

[Christy Lee]

Wait for him to reach out to us.

[Chick McGee]

I wait to be called on.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Call me or text me.

[Ali Breen]

Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, when does Doordash get here? I'll watch TV till then.

[Chick McGee]

Fat Guy Boys. Fat Guy Boys. Fat guy Voice.

[Josh Arnold]

That's us. Voice.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. A couple quick things coming up. If you're a fan of the band Rush, don't go anywhere.

[Chick McGee]

And who isn't?

[Tom Griswold]

You're not a fan, are you? Have you ever seen them live?

[Chick McGee]

They're okay. I mean, I like the hits.

[Tom Griswold]

So cool. They don't sound too complicated for me.

[Christy Lee]

There's only three people. How could they be complicated?

[Chick McGee]

You asked. She can't weigh in on this.

[Christy Lee]

I've seen them.

[Chick McGee]

She's a girl.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. They probably have a record. They probably have a record of the concert. He went to this one concert. There was a girl there. Write it down. To Getty.

[Christy Lee]

I even remember where I was sitting.

[Ali Breen]

What?

[Pat Godwin]

I have a seat for you.

[Christy Lee]

I have a seat.

[Chick McGee]

Check it out.

[Tom Griswold]

Mention this guy's in concert. Tim Cavanaugh's part of a very special fundraiser for the Wausau School Foundation. What do you know about the name Wausau Chick.

[Chick McGee]

W A U S A usa usa

[Tom Griswold]

Right there in the middle. This is a thing coming up Friday night at the Jefferson Street Inn in Wausau, Wisconsin. It's a special benefit with our good friend Tim Cavanaugh. That should be a cool show. And you're helping out the school there, so that's always a good thing to do. Call the Jefferson Street Inn in Wausau and get some more information about that coming up. Did I mention it? This Friday night, right now, this actually happened to a friend of mine. He got very heavily. What's the word I'm looking for? I guess in debt, technically, with his credit cards. This is easy to happen. You think, I'll just pay this off next month? Well, pretty soon you can get a huge debt and you find out you're paying, like 20 plus percent interest on it, and it could really take over your life. And one of the things you might be able to do is do a quick refi. And the way this works is the average house in the United States has, in many cases doubled in value in the last five, six years, depending on where you live, et cetera, et cetera. But in the case of my friend, he found out that his neighbor had sold his house, and he sold it for like, twice what he paid for it. He goes, wow. What that means is you might have a lot of equity in your house. You don't even know about. That's where American Financing comes in. They could come in, value your home and perhaps do a refi where you can pay off that incredibly high interest rate you're paying on those cards. You knock those down, pay them all off and then do a refi at the same time. So find out the details. It can be a little complicated. The numbers aren't my thing, but they do say that they've been averaging a savings of about $800 a month. So find out what's going on in the world of finance, in the world of your house. You've owned it for a while perhaps, and take advantage of what's been going on in the housing market in the USA. Now, you check that out by going to american financing.net Once again, that's americanfinancing.net See if this would work for you. And by the way, mention Bob and Tom when you go there.

[Tom Griswold]

Thanks.

[Chick McGee]

Gary Owens, the professional parts people. What are you doing at O'Reilly Auto Parts?

You know what he's doing over there? Radio.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Darn right. The way it was meant to be.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, but you gotta put your hand up here like this.

[Chick McGee]

And now here's Christy Lee at the news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Thanks, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godman. Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Who's pleading and begging me not to mention something. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, it is funny.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, really funny.

[Jess Hooker]

I already get in trouble for telling you guys too much in here. I'm getting a lot of trouble for this.

[Tom Griswold]

Do it.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom, I'm trying to.

[Tom Griswold]

I forgot to give you this. World record.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, you did.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you want to pause and come back with it? So you can deliver it as only you can now.

[Ali Breen]

You can do it.

[Chick McGee]

Special correspondent Tom Griswold.

[Tom Griswold]

Tom, hundreds of people have come together to break the Guinness world record for the most people snorkeling simultaneously.

[Chick McGee]

I can't believe I'm saying this. That's kind of cool.

[Tom Griswold]

This would be easy to.

[Josh Arnold]

I can't believe you're saying that.

[Christy Lee]

I can't either.

[Chick McGee]

Remember.

[Christy Lee]

So easy to do.

[Chick McGee]

Remember when you're snorkeling, always remember, breathe out first. Never breathe in first. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're underwater.

[Josh Arnold]

It took me maybe five minutes to acclimate to snorkeling.

[Christy Lee]

It's not easy.

[Josh Arnold]

It's such an unnatural thing to have your face down like that and to still breathe, right? It is. It's a weird in. What does that even mean?

[Tom Griswold]

I. I would think you'd be pretty good at breathing with your face down.

[Josh Arnold]

When I'm in that muff, do you

[Chick McGee]

refer to it as a muff time?

[Tom Griswold]

I've heard it was the.

[Chick McGee]

You know, ladies have, like, in cold weather, they have muffs they wear around their hands.

[Pat Godwin]

If you said muff to a woman, they wouldn't appreciate that.

[Jess Hooker]

I would laugh so hard, I'd say,

[Josh Arnold]

get that muff out of here.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, Josh. May I kiss your muff, by the way?

[Ali Breen]

Way.

[Tom Griswold]

What part of town was that gentleman from?

[Chick McGee]

Never you mind.

[Christy Lee]

How many people was the record?

[Tom Griswold]

This is 305 people snorting.

[Christy Lee]

That's nothing.

[Chick McGee]

How many people was the we?

[Tom Griswold]

You're much more worldly than I am.

[Josh Arnold]

He did say wicked.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it pronounced. Is it pronounced Maldives?

[Chick McGee]

Maldives or Maldives? Maldives.

[Josh Arnold]

I've always heard Maldives.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

They were off the coast of the Maldives. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It sounds like a cruise ship thing. Hey, everybody, let's go snorkeling. World record.

[Chick McGee]

Is everybody ready to have fun?

[Pat Godwin]

It's just 350.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's.

[Josh Arnold]

No. Or 305.

[Tom Griswold]

305.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It seems like.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That seems light.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah. Well, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Would have been cool. Now, this story would be much more, much more interesting if, like, a shark had come in and taken a few of them out.

[Josh Arnold]

How many people peed? I mean, if you're swimming with 305 people, you're snorkeling in a lot of people.

[Jess Hooker]

100 people peed.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You got to hit that purge valve. Taste of urine out of your mouth. In any event, that was our world record for today. And probably a lot of sunburned backs.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, sure.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Well, they all had to be have their face in the water at the same time. Too.

[Josh Arnold]

That's why I wear a shirt when I snorkel. I burn very easily.

[Christy Lee]

Well, of course you should wear swimsuits.

[Josh Arnold]

What I would tell the other kids when I was wearing my fat kid swim shirt. Guys, I, I burn real easy and it's. They're like. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you still wear a shirt when you swim?

[Josh Arnold]

I, I do.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you, by the way, are you, are you cannonball guy?

[Josh Arnold]

I am constantly being requested to cannonball.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Doesn't every the same way? Every, every, every school has the one kid who can burp the Alphabet. There's always the one kid that can do this. The jackknife where they run to the edge of the pool, they stick one leg out and they can somehow aim their splash and it goes.

[Chick McGee]

Is the jackknife and can opener.

[Josh Arnold]

I think they are the same. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

I have heard jackknife and jackknife is

[Christy Lee]

a dive where you go like this and then go in.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I know that is.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, technically that's opener is the one leg.

[Tom Griswold]

The can opener is the one leg. Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I cannot do that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There was always, always the one kid that could. I couldn't do it.

[Josh Arnold]

Excelled.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. And he could aim it.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. And he could see if somebody were laying in a chair.

[Tom Griswold]

Mrs. Bronner's over there. She's wearing a one piece.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Bronner lying in a pool chair is

[Tom Griswold]

what I hottest teacher at Byron Junior High School.

[Josh Arnold]

The biggest person at the pool or the lake. Always. They. Everybody wants to see them do the.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, absolutely.

[Ali Breen]

The.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

The cannonball. Yeah. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Or a belly.

[Jess Hooker]

It's always funny though.

[Tom Griswold]

So that was our road record. Does that conclude our sports broadcast?

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

I think a back flop is funnier than a belly flop.

[Jess Hooker]

But when you hear it hit.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean. But when somebody tries to do a flip and it's just straight back slap and then they're underwater for like three seconds and you're just howling because you know they're gonna come up going.

[Tom Griswold]

If they come up.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. The laughs sort of die when the arm doesn't serve a chair for life.

[Chick McGee]

I told you about my childhood friend yesterday, right?

[Tom Griswold]

We're not going to go back there.

[Chick McGee]

We were playing hockey.

[Tom Griswold]

Christie talk immediately went right through the ice.

[Christy Lee]

Speaking of snorkeling never came up. Sea treasure hunter who made one of the greatest shipwreck discoveries in American history has been released from prison. 73 year old Tommy Thompson spent the past decade behind bars after refusing to

[Chick McGee]

reveal Call me Machine Gun Tommy.

[Christy Lee]

The location of 500 missing gold coins.

[Tom Griswold]

This is pretty interesting. This guy spent 10 years in jail because he wouldn't cough up the information.

[Josh Arnold]

I respect it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. In 1988, Thompson discovered the wreck of the SS Central America, known as the ship of gold, off the coast of South Carolina.

[Josh Arnold]

Why do you tell anybody?

[Christy Lee]

The ship sank in a hurricane in 1857 while carrying a fortune from the California gold rush. More than 400 people died in this shipwreck. Thousands of pounds of gold were lost. Investors who backed Jack Thompson's venture sued him in 2005, saying they had yet to receive any money from the $50 million sale of more than 500 gold bars and thousands of coins that were just part of the ship's booty.

[Josh Arnold]

So he didn't pay up.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This is a complicated story, but I just love the fact this is an Associated Press story and they use the. They wrote that phrase, part of the ship's booty.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, that's the word.

[Christy Lee]

That is the word.

[Josh Arnold]

Your child.

[Tom Griswold]

What would you. What would you say? I thought Greece was the word. I was misinformed.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought the bird was the word.

[Christy Lee]

Nobody has long claimed that the missing coins were placed in a Belize trust. And then much of the earlier treasure money went to legal fees and bank loans. We can't pay them back, I guess.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, so in the Belize trust, is this guy gonna.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, do they. It's not legal. They can't put, like, a tracker under his skin, can they?

[Christy Lee]

Under his skin?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe up his keyster today. Hey, listen, we're gonna let you out here, buddy.

[Josh Arnold]

But they can follow him to the.

[Tom Griswold]

Isn't this the first thing the guy's gonna do, is go dig up the coins?

[Christy Lee]

They're in a Belize trust.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what he's saying. Who knows where they are?

[Chick McGee]

No. Don't you think that he knows that they. He knows. He realizes that's what they think he's going to do. And he's not going to do that.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe he's told somebody that his former

[Tom Griswold]

girlfriend knows where they are.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. X marks the spot.

[Ali Breen]

Spot.

[Josh Arnold]

X marks the spot. Your ex would be. Don't be too upset that you're not getting a chick.

[Chick McGee]

It's barely a joke. He did say.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't say I was a joke.

[Chick McGee]

He did say former girlfriend, and I kind of missed that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Don't you love that, though? In cartoons, they're always that they. They're searching the beach for the treasure and there's a great big X in the sand. This Is there's a lot of layers to this story. So a lot of people are very upset because. But can you imagine what the gold would be worth in Today's market?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

$5,200 an ounce.

[Tom Griswold]

I had a guy tell me yesterday, we were talking about this friend of mine who was talking about collecting stuff. He has a friend who is a watch collector. And there are some watches now that are considered to be collectible. Gold is worth so much now, it's cheaper to melt them. Melt them down?

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Or it's more worthwhile to melt them down.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sorry, I didn't speak proper. But yeah, it's. They're worth more melted. The gold is worth more than. Even though it's an antique watch of a certain brand.

[Jess Hooker]

That's. Why. Is it horology? Is that what the.

[Chick McGee]

It's a study of prostitutes.

[Jess Hooker]

It's the. I think it's watch collecting and. And that type of thing. That's why it's become so popular lately.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Jess Hooker]

Because of the gold. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But she seems amazed to melt down a beautiful watch.

[Ali Breen]

Watch.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

You don't. You're not a watch guy, though? I mean, just a couple.

[Tom Griswold]

I got a couple watches.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, but you don't. You know, I don't collect them. You don't have a closet for watches?

[Tom Griswold]

I have to. If I don't wear one, I feel weird.

[Chick McGee]

Do you have a watch winder?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I do.

[Christy Lee]

You know, there's controversy about the watch winder that they can mess up your battery or.

[Pat Godwin]

That's right.

[Josh Arnold]

Watch winder.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm a watch winder.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Watching world, Watching time go by.

[Christy Lee]

I used to have one.

[Tom Griswold]

I want to play for Ms. Hooker. Were you. You may know the answers if you were listening earlier, but I know that you hate the show and don't listen.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, probably not.

[Tom Griswold]

This came up earlier. I want to see if you recognize this. Everybody else, be quiet. I'm looking at you, chick.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

We were discussing this earlier. Here we go.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. Sash.

[Pat Godwin]

Somebody sad.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Way sad.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what this is? Can you imagine being able to sing like that?

[Josh Arnold]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing. Now. Do you?

[Josh Arnold]

I would hear that blaring from my parents bedroom.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

My brothers and I would look at each other. Well, I guess.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Mom and dad are busy.

[Josh Arnold]

Mom's getting fingered.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Oh,

[Ali Breen]

God.

[Chick McGee]

Yep. But you were happy because they were getting along.

[Josh Arnold]

Want to go out and skateboard?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what? I do.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, Josh, I know that you're on some new medication. Whatever. Whatever it is. Can you bring in some for me. I. I tend to be drug free, but in this case, whatever it is, I want it.

[Christy Lee]

Joshua Matthew, you are grounded.

[Tom Griswold]

So I know your dad did two tours of dirt duty. Dirty, dirty duty.

[Josh Arnold]

Two tours of duty, two turns of dirty.

[Tom Griswold]

Your dad Larry did two tours in Larry's duty in Vietnam.

[Chick McGee]

There's a lot dirtier than Finger.

[Josh Arnold]

His tour of duty was only on his birthday.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's eventually where I was going to go.

[Pat Godwin]

What if your mom is listening, Right?

[Josh Arnold]

There's a good chance, actually.

[Chick McGee]

Wasn't that the name of the boy band on South Park? The. The Finger bank or something?

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, stop saying fingered.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that is.

[Tom Griswold]

That is a. I like that one.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you know the book that who Framed Roger Rabbit is based on, and it's a real. Is named who Fingered? Roger Rabbit. As in who? Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, there was the movie Freddy Got

[Josh Arnold]

Finger, and I think you're right. And I think Disney went, oh, we got us.

[Chick McGee]

No, we got to do something.

[Tom Griswold]

Somebody. Somebody been to third base and realized what was going on.

[Chick McGee]

You think whoever came up with Framed got like a bonus?

[Tom Griswold]

In any event, we were talking about

[Chick McGee]

booty and God, you know.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a great song.

[Jess Hooker]

That is a great song.

[Tom Griswold]

Josh was saying that his father. That was his. The record he played over and over and over.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, that was one. Yeah, that was one. Interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's pronounced. I always thought it was the Chai lights. It is the Shy lights. Because they're from Chicago. Is that what's happening? I never knew that.

[Christy Lee]

You never play them on the radio.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't. I've never. I never worked in oldies stage.

[Chick McGee]

I bet you didn't.

[Josh Arnold]

Josh, did your dad do the hand moves The.

[Chick McGee]

The band did?

[Josh Arnold]

Not that I saw. I. I would like to think that yes. Maybe in the sh. Like while I was shaving or whatever.

[Chick McGee]

In the shower with the shylight.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe he was loosening up his hands

[Daniel Buckspan]

for your mom

[Chick McGee]

started it.

[Tom Griswold]

So he segue from that into the

[Chick McGee]

Curly Shuffle Finger bang one.

[Tom Griswold]

Chick McGee is at the orangeinsouls.com sports desk. I bring this up again because we've got a special treat coming from Orange Insouls. Some serious business in the world of men's college basketball. That'll be coming up, of course, beginning next week officially. But what have you got over there?

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob at Tom Show, I was driving the kiddos yesterday afternoon, and in my neighborhood, what should come pull up beside me but the Banana Mobile.

[Christy Lee]

Banana Mobile, that's right.

[Chick McGee]

It came along at the perfect time because one of my students was not happy at that moment, very upset about something and saw the banana mobile and immediately broke into the biggest smile you've ever seen.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure, it's cool.

[Christy Lee]

Have you seen the Banana mobile?

[Tom Griswold]

I've seen pictures. We're making arrangements to try to have the banana Mobile here one morning.

[Chick McGee]

By the way, Josh. Josh, love your laugh. It's infectious.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, thank you.

[Chick McGee]

So from Diane with two ends. So it's Diane.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I would love for Us to be able to ride in the banana mobile. It's painted so well, too. Like, the ends are kind of green

[Chick McGee]

and the rest is waiting for that mobile to.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you gonna say something like you want to be in it when it peels out?

[Josh Arnold]

I wasn't gonna say that.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I thought you were setting us up.

[Josh Arnold]

No, just, you know, sometimes I'm a. I'm a human being. Tom and I. I need to converse.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

You want to make a connection.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Yes, I see. Yeah, you can see why I was thinking you. I probably try to figure out a way to work the word fingering into your discussion. It's time now to check out history. We need to have a history lesson. Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Why do girls hate the word fingering? We do it for you.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, we're asking you to do it, not talk about it.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sorry.

[Chick McGee]

You think we like it?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, it's gooey in there.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

You ever see the movie God.

[Tom Griswold]

You ever see.

[Christy Lee]

Would you rather have a dry

[Pat Godwin]

Even Tom is.

[Chick McGee]

Hang on. Wait a minute. I. Let's do this reset before we get to today in history.

[Josh Arnold]

Kids. I don't know what's wrong with these kids today.

[Chick McGee]

Little Paul Lind, kids who can understand.

[Josh Arnold]

Understand anything they say. Kids, they are disobedient, disrespectful oats.

[Tom Griswold]

Noisy, crazy, sloppy, lazy loafers right around the subject. Oh, sorry.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, don't have any kids.

[Chick McGee]

And now here's Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

And we have Mr. Paul Lind here with us.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, hey, is that right?

[Josh Arnold]

It's nice to see you, Mr. Lind.

[Tom Griswold]

Good to be here.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, Mr. Paul Lind, what's the one thing you should never do in bed?

[Tom Griswold]

Never too.

[Josh Arnold]

In bed? Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, do me. Do it again. Did I say do me again?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Paul.

[Josh Arnold]

What's the one thing Mr. Paul Lind you should never do in bed? Point and laugh. That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Finger bang. Your wife. Mr. Lin, what's the one thing you should not. During sexual activity? Is there anything that. In your body part that you should. You should not move?

[Josh Arnold]

Say it again.

[Pat Godwin]

I got the giggles. Go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

During intimate activities in the bedroom, what should you not move your bowels?

[Chick McGee]

I can't. You know, I miss Dr. Ruth.

[Pat Godwin]

Ask me where the Sistine Chapel is, Mr. Lynn.

[Tom Griswold]

Where is that?

[Pat Godwin]

Right next to the 15.

[Chick McGee]

You ever heard Tom do Dr. Ruth?

[Christy Lee]

That was wonderful.

[Chick McGee]

Very funny, Dr. Ruth. Vice.

[Jess Hooker]

Boner.

[Chick McGee]

That's her.

[Tom Griswold]

We can bring her back right now. It's. We're supposed to be doing history. Can I have the music, please? I can't I've got to get in shape for this. There we go.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Who plays that? You, I think.

[Josh Arnold]

Ace.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sorry. This is. This always brings up questions and I think. Is this the one you're related to, Pat? Mary Shelley.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah. Mary Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Mary Shelley, whose name was Mary Godwin. She married the poet and didn't know it. Born in 1818. No, I'm sorry. Published in 1818. Frankenstein. She was like, what, wrote it when she was 20 or something.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Very young. Very young.

[Ali Breen]

Young.

[Tom Griswold]

So very important to know. And her worst is the sequels. The one she wrote, what was it? Frankenstein versus the Space Monster.

[Josh Arnold]

Not as good. No, it doesn't read.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah, but she's related to you, Pat.

[Pat Godwin]

Well, I mean, there were two families of Godwins that left England way back when, and that's. That's her family.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

So that's it. That's where my grandfather came from.

[Tom Griswold]

What, and the doctor is Frankenstein. Gotta get that, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The monster is the monster. Right?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, in the movie, if you look at the credits, it's question mark.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

The Boris Carlos, it says like the monster played by question mark.

[Christy Lee]

It doesn't say.

[Josh Arnold]

Who could that have been?

[Tom Griswold]

This is interesting. What year do you think Barbie's boyfriend Ken was brought to the market?

[Christy Lee]

62.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good. Chris. 61. Penis sold separately, by the way.

[Christy Lee]

Never got that.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way, I. I noticed that all the Barbies, they have all kinds of great jobs, which is terrific. I get it. Very good. Modeling. A model for young ladies. But Ken never worked.

[Chick McGee]

No, he just had his sweater tied around his neck.

[Tom Griswold]

So he's living off Barbie.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What a bum.

[Christy Lee]

A stay at home dad. Dad, do they have kids?

[Ali Breen]

Oh, yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

No, she doesn't.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Ali Breen]

Kids?

[Christy Lee]

No, she doesn't have kids.

[Tom Griswold]

They never.

[Chick McGee]

Ben and Ben and Barbie and Billy, they never had.

[Tom Griswold]

They never had. Knocked off Barbie.

[Jess Hooker]

No, no.

[Josh Arnold]

They had a pregnant one. Was it Midge or. Who got pregnant?

[Christy Lee]

It might have been Midge. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is she the one that went with the football player?

[Chick McGee]

Her stomach came off. No, that's. They are cheese Archies.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sorry, honey, you're using your. See, I would.

[Josh Arnold]

You get confused.

[Tom Griswold]

You're one child.

[Josh Arnold]

Cartoons especially.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't have one. Yeah. Between.

[Chick McGee]

Is there any way we could talk like adults?

[Tom Griswold]

I hope. On 1971, Jim Morrison leaves for Paris to avoid, I think, some kind of a jail thing in Miami.

[Josh Arnold]

He never really did come back from Paris

[Tom Griswold]

or would have been better to go stay in Miami than to end up in a.

[Chick McGee]

He's living in graveyard in Flagstaff, Arizona.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, this is a tough one. Chick or ace. Or Ace. Chick or Ace Only I'll be.

[Ali Breen]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

And what year did the NFL adopt the instant replay rule?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, geez.

[Josh Arnold]

It's in the 90s.

[Chick McGee]

They had it on a trial basis. I'm going to say yeah. 93, 95.

[Tom Griswold]

86.

[Chick McGee]

86. And then it went away for a while and then it came back.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The main reason they did it, the replay Josh, was so you could re watch the end zone celebration dances because they're so good.

[Ali Breen]

Good.

[Tom Griswold]

I like the group celebrations where they all get down and pretend they're playing craps and stuff.

[Jess Hooker]

I do too.

[Tom Griswold]

Those are always.

[Josh Arnold]

I hate it.

[Tom Griswold]

Those are always.

[Josh Arnold]

I like when they put the ball down and walk back to where that's

[Christy Lee]

what they're supposed to do. Right.

[Josh Arnold]

Been there.

[Tom Griswold]

Y.

[Josh Arnold]

So cool.

[Tom Griswold]

You'll like this one. 87, 18. Excuse me. 1987, Wayne Gretzky scores his 1500th goal.

[Chick McGee]

Wayo.

[Josh Arnold]

Allegedly he's overrated.

[Pat Godwin]

And Felisa was a great, great one.

[Tom Griswold]

1989, the television show Cops debuted on the Fox network.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that was a good one.

[Josh Arnold]

You remember their theme?

[Tom Griswold]

Bad boys, Bad boys, what you gonna do?

[Josh Arnold]

Do you remember who did that song?

[Tom Griswold]

And every episode, the Bad Boys, by the way, they do the same thing.

[Chick McGee]

They run the Baha.

[Jess Hooker]

Baha Men. No, that's who I would have guessed, too.

[Josh Arnold]

Inner Circle.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay. That's who does that song.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Later on, known as the Baja Men.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh. A couple of them left. Left Inner Circle and went to and

[Tom Griswold]

who Let the Dogs Out?

[Chick McGee]

And a couple went with a new. New edition.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute, he's lying.

[Jess Hooker]

Did they have any other hits?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, there was another Inner Circle song that got radio play. Yeah, I'm sorry, I can't remember what it was.

[Chick McGee]

Bad girls, fool. If you think it's over. Thank you.

[Daniel Buckspan]

You're welcome.

[Chick McGee]

I did that just for you. Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember we had the guy from COPS in here?

[Ali Breen]

Here?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

One of the producers. No. And he was saying that I said, does anybody ever say, hey, look, I don't want to be on tv? And he said, no. They all sign off.

[Christy Lee]

They all sign the waiver, and they

[Tom Griswold]

always wanted to show him their big screen TV whenever they were. Just as they were being cuffed.

[Josh Arnold]

I think you'll remember the other Inner Circle song.

[Ali Breen]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Sweat.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that was a good song.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. That's awesome.

[Tom Griswold]

I haven't heard that one for me and Pat. Paul McCartney knighted by Queen Elizabeth in 1997. Twenty years later, Ringo would get knighted. I guess the queen didn't dig Octopus's garden.

[Josh Arnold]

As much as I dub thee the worst beetle.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I love Ringo.

[Josh Arnold]

I do, too.

[Chick McGee]

He's a great guy, Ringo.

[Tom Griswold]

Great drummer. Oh, sorry, Chick, I want you to elaborate on why this is significant.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Born on this date, Major League baseball pitcher, born in 1945. Doc Ellis.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, he pitched a World Series game on lsd, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's who that was.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it a no hitter before he was the band?

[Chick McGee]

It was a no hitter, yeah. Well, that must not have been a World Series game.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I think it was just a no hitter. That's. I mean, famous. And the. Todd Snyder wrote. Actually wrote a song about that event, and that's probably about it. We got your Bobby McFerrin Happy Birthday Day.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't worry, he sings. Everybody sings to him.

[Tom Griswold]

Acapella, Johnny Knoxville and more. But we have to take a break because we've got something really cool coming up. A little special something for fans of the great band Rush. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

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.

[Tom Griswold]

Done now.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Christy Lee]

Hi, Chick McGee.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Jess Hooker is here. Hello, Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom. I understand we have a special guest, Chick McGee.

[Tom Griswold]

At the orangeinsouls.com sports desk. We do indeed have a good. I think we're gonna hook up on the screen. There we go. Daniel, I wanna make sure I get your last name correct. I'm gonna shoot out. I'm gonna try Buckspan.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah, that's it.

[Tom Griswold]

That's it.

[Daniel Buckspan]

You nailed it.

[Tom Griswold]

There's some extra consonants in there. You got a Z in there. Daniel is an expert on the band Rush, and he has written a beautiful coffee table book about 2112. This is a real piece of art.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah, I was. When it. When the boxes of my author copies came to my house and I, you know, busted open the first one. I was. I was like, wow, I'm lucky to be involved with something like this.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's got beautiful photographs and you're telling the story about the great album from Rush, 2112. Kind of controversial when it came out. And even some of the Rush fans didn't care for it when it first came out. Am I right? Right.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Well, I mean, it. It was really the album that sort of like, that really announced their arrival. You know, it was their fourth record, and the records they had done up to that were, you know, they were good, but, you know, they weren't really selling at more than, like, a kind of, like, fair to midling status. But when 2112 came out, that really opened the door for them there. I mean, yeah, there. There were some people who didn't like it, certainly, but, I mean, for the most part, it was really accepted and really was. You know, that was the. That. That was the album that did the trick for them. I'm sure some people didn't like it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, the big. A lot of big hits would follow. Are you. And of course, I'm sure you're aware, Rush doing a little tour coming up, a reunion tour, and I'm trying to remember, they're bringing in a lady to be the drummer. Is that correct?

[Ali Breen]

Correct.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yes. Her name is Annika Nils, I think is how you pronounce her last name. And she's like a monster. She's. I. She's incredible, you know, and anyone who's skeptical about whether she's up to the job, look her up on YouTube, watch a few seconds. She's amazing. She'll. She's gonna be great.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's great that they're doing this in honor of their former drummer, Neil. And are they gonna have a keyboard guy on stage as well as. I thought I saw that song somewhere.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah, they've. They got, like, a separate freestanding keyboard play routes. They. They've never done that before in their history.

[Josh Arnold]

They.

[Daniel Buckspan]

They had talked about it here and there, but they always decided, like, no, you know, the three of us get along. You know, we work well as a trio. Let's just keep it that way. But, you know, Getty would be the guy, you know, playing bass with his left hand, holding down keys with his right hand and singing and stepping on a pedal.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I've seen him hit those pedals. You're going, how does he do all. All those things at the same time?

[Daniel Buckspan]

I would ask myself that over and over again every time I saw them play. It's not surprising to me that at this point, he's like, you know what? Can someone else maybe just handle one of those four jobs? You know? So I. It's cool.

[Tom Griswold]

In the process of writing the book about the. About Rush, did you get to Talk to the guy.

[Daniel Buckspan]

I have not spoken to them, but I did talk to people who worked with them, like Hugh Sime, who did the album cover, Terry Brown, who is the producer, and Donna Halper, who's the woman who basically discovered them when she was working as a DJ in Cleveland.

[Tom Griswold]

They thank her. I could remember in the liner, the. The back of the album.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah, it said, thank you for getting the ball rolling. And that's exactly what she did.

[Ali Breen]

Did.

[Daniel Buckspan]

And actually, they're still all friends today, like this minute. So, I mean, they really. That was a good. That was a good relationship for them.

[Tom Griswold]

And their picture. There are a lot of cool pictures of the guys. I imagine getting the rights to all those photographs is pretty tough, but it's a beautiful, beautiful book. So for Rush fans out there, by the way, I know the one joke about the upcoming tour because they have this brilliant woman on the drums. Yeah, the joke, Christy Lee, is that at a Rush concert, she'll be the only woman there.

[Christy Lee]

I have attended a Rush show. There are women few and far between.

[Daniel Buckspan]

May I. May I push back on that slightly?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, of course.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Okay. I mean, I. I mean, I. I saw Rush one time in 1994. There were women there. Of course, some of the most die hard, you know, committed, ride or die Rush fans I've ever met at are women. There's an event called rushcon. It's a con for Rush, you know, and that is all women that organize it. And, you know, so, I mean, women. Women are really in the picture, you know, early on in their career. Absolutely. It was definitely, like, for dudes, but. No, but I mean, women have been there for, you know, I mean, maybe the audiences are 60, 40, you know, but women are there. Women go to Rush shows.

[Josh Arnold]

Daniel, for those who aren't too familiar with Rush or they want to get into them, would you have them start with 2112?

[Daniel Buckspan]

It's a good place to start, though. I mean, the place most people start is usually moving pictures, because that, you know, that's their most famous and biggest selling album. But to me, I mean, I. I think 2112 is a great place to start, and it is where a lot of people, you know, that was. That was the entry point for a lot of them, I think. You know, if you're more oriented towards, like, just, you know, kind of meat and potatoes, hard rock, that's a good album to start with. Where the later stuff gets a little more, you know, complex and progressive and, you know, that's not for everybody.

[Tom Griswold]

Sorry. I was. I would think Tom Sawyer Limelight. Probably get the most airplay, wouldn't you say?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, maybe Working man or.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Well, I mean, Tom Sawyer and Limelighter from Moving Pictures, right? That's their. That's their biggest. That's the one, you know, that's. That's their thriller, you know. Yeah, but. Yeah, But I mean, 2112, I mean, I cannot. I wrote to, you know, I wrote 200 pages about it. I think it's brilliant. It's a great place for anyone to start. And I think the, you know, the story of it, you know, the 2112 story, you know, is something that I think anyone can relate to and anyone can get into to. And then, you know, side two of that record has, you know, these great shorter songs. I think it's a great starting point for anybody.

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, we're speaking with Daniel Buckspan. He's written a book, Rush and 2112 Rush, celebrating their 50 plus years out there. Going out this summer on tour. How many times have you seen Russian concert?

[Daniel Buckspan]

I've seen them once.

[Tom Griswold]

That's it.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Daniel Buckspan]

That's it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I've seen him several times. My famous Rush story for me is I was. Daniel. I was in the last row at the old Market Square Arena. And this is before I realized as a dj, when you get free tickets, they're bad seats. That's why I started buying tickets after that. So I'm in the last row and the guy in front of me stood up the entire show, making the horns with his hand, screaming, lifeson is God.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

I had an opportunity to tell Alex Lifeson that story. He says, he is not God, but man, he can play. Well, Daniel, it's been a pleasure speaking to you. I certainly recommend the book. It came out great. It's a beautiful piece of work and you've done a great job for Rush fans. It's called Rush in 2112 by Daniel Buckspan. Thanks so much for your time, sir.

[Ali Breen]

Sir.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Thank you for having me. I appreciate it.

[Tom Griswold]

You're very welcome.

[Josh Arnold]

The book.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, it's awesome. It's really beautiful. Really well done. And Rush fans out there, I know we got a bunch of them. I certainly would recommend. It might be a nice gift, ladies, for your Rush fan boyfriend, perhaps, or even girlfriend.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, even. Don't let the girls.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't let the girls.

[Jess Hooker]

I'd like to ask.

[Tom Griswold]

I got a friend that's a concert promoter. I want to ask him of sort of adult bands, if you will.

[Christy Lee]

What do you mean adult bands?

[Chick McGee]

People. You mean like sexy. Sexy Bands?

[Tom Griswold]

No, not like Heartthrob. Which adult bands draw the mostly male crowd?

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Which.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, I. Look, they obviously have their female fans, but I think any Prague rock is probably mostly.

[Christy Lee]

Man, that's progressive rock, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

I wasn't born Yesterday.

[Josh Arnold]

You're Emerson, Lakes and Paul.

[Christy Lee]

You were looking at me like, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, but like, yes. Would they be.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that's got to be most. Yeah, they're definitely.

[Chick McGee]

That's Prague rock.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you ever see them live, by the way?

[Christy Lee]

I did, yes. I saw Peter Frampton for the first time.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Christy Lee]

1976. Peter Frampton and. Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Who.

[Tom Griswold]

Who was the headliner? Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Was.

[Ali Breen]

Was.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Christy Lee]

And Gentle Giant. It was Gentle Giant, Peter Frampton and yes. At Balboa Stadium in.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Welcome to my stadium.

[Chick McGee]

Don't be concerned. I'm gentle.

[Christy Lee]

Wasn't General Giant a big Cleveland band?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

I think they were.

[Chick McGee]

It must not have been if you were.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know. They weren't in my book, but I. One of the best shows I ever saw was.

[Chick McGee]

Can I get a look at your book?

[Tom Griswold]

Absolutely not.

[Chick McGee]

Come on. Well, I'll keep it on the down low.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. First concert you ever saw, Chick McGee.

[Chick McGee]

First concert I ever saw. Official concert. Bad Company opened up. And then Jojo Gun. And then Black Oak, Arkansas Harrow Arena, Dayton, Ohio.

[Tom Griswold]

The headliner was Black Oak, Arkansas. Black Oak.

[Chick McGee]

Jim Dandy. Jim Dandy to the rescue. I love that Jay Ferguson.

[Tom Griswold]

I admit, I do love. I do love the song Jim Dandy.

[Chick McGee]

Jay Ferguson got shocked by the microphone and kicked it into the front row. It was festival standing, actually, is what it was. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Bad Company. That first tour, they were bad company.

[Chick McGee]

We all were. Like, hey, bring those guys back.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

How about that? Yeah, that's great. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We got to get a song out of Patty G. We got a bunch of news we got to cover today.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, but we have to do Sexy Time next.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, my gosh. We don't have to save all this stuff for tomorrow.

[Chick McGee]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, maybe could you work up a theme for Sexy Time Time? You've got.

[Christy Lee]

You've got seven. Seven minutes.

[Chick McGee]

How about this in the style of Luther Vandross?

[Jess Hooker]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I don't know if I could do that. You got to get the name Ali Breen in there. What does it rhyme with? How about Spleen Scene? I got it covered.

[Chick McGee]

I think I hit her Spleen.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go. That's. Did you hear that? Chick's already got a lyric for.

[Chick McGee]

I think I hear Spleen. I thought I Heard her scream.

[Tom Griswold]

She's digging that sexy scene.

[Pat Godwin]

Sexy time.

[Tom Griswold]

I asked her to use some Listerine and the brain.

[Chick McGee]

She touched my pee.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, go there.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, we're already there.

[Tom Griswold]

No, we're not.

[Christy Lee]

After this day. What? That's.

[Josh Arnold]

What do you think was hitting her spleen?

[Chick McGee]

That's right. I try not to linger as long as I can. Finger.

[Tom Griswold]

I was gonna say, if it was your dad, it would have been. We've already established that. Let's just move forward here, shall we?

[Jess Hooker]

Huh?

[Tom Griswold]

What else is going on? Oh, I know. My feet hurt.

[Christy Lee]

They do, they do.

[Tom Griswold]

No, they don't. Because I've got orange insoles.

[Josh Arnold]

That's right. Orangeinsoles.com is the place to go.

[Chick McGee]

Do you walk, Josh? Do you work?

[Josh Arnold]

You know I do, pal.

[Chick McGee]

Do you stand longer than 10 minutes without making a noise when you sit down?

[Josh Arnold]

Now that I don't do.

[Chick McGee]

Possibly this noise, yes.

[Josh Arnold]

And my knees will be popping like bubble wrap.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. Feet get tired.

[Josh Arnold]

They do get tired. Arches collapse, knees complain, backs get sore. A lot of times, it has nothing to do with getting older. It has everything to do with your feet. Orange insoles help you keep aligned throughout the day. So feet get fatigued. Not so fast. My feetsies.

[Tom Griswold]

Translation?

[Chick McGee]

What Josh is trying to say is less oof at the end of the day.

[Josh Arnold]

They're durable enough.

[Tom Griswold]

The word is footsies.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, did I say feetsies? I was being killed.

[Chick McGee]

Feces too close to.

[Christy Lee]

Go ahead, Tom. Say the word.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, they both.

[Tom Griswold]

Now we're. Now we're gonna get a letter. They both can smell bad. Thank you.

[Chick McGee]

Let me tell you.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you happy with yourself now?

[Josh Arnold]

Very.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

They're durable enough for work boots. They're comfortable enough for everyday wear.

[Chick McGee]

If Quentin Tarantino bought inserts, they'd be orange insole.

[Josh Arnold]

That's exactly right. Now, he would probably ask for the translucent ones.

[Chick McGee]

If anybody knows feet, it's go ahead and turn, Tina.

[Tom Griswold]

After two weeks, he'd make sun tea out of of them.

[Josh Arnold]

He knows from feet, doesn't he?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, what did George Harrison do with his dentist or something?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no. Crosby, Stills Nash and Young released the album Deja Vu.

[Christy Lee]

Or.

[Tom Griswold]

Or did I already say that?

[Christy Lee]

We'll be back with Sexy Time and Ali Breen.

[Chick McGee]

The silence was death.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, I'll do it for you. See, they released the album Deja Vu, but maybe I already said that. Seems like it did.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm composing over here. I'm not paying attention to you.

[Tom Griswold]

He's writing a theme for Sexy Time with Ali Breen. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show 68.

[Pat Godwin]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. All right, when you clear your throat, do you want me to say something? I'm sorry I didn't pick up on you. What's.

[Josh Arnold]

Nothing.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, she's at the news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I am him.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello. There's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

We get to talk about naughty things.

[Tom Griswold]

Not necessarily. It's not always kinky and weird.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, according to you, it usually is.

[Chick McGee]

The only reason to have relations make a baby. Right, Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

Some say that. Are we ready? Okay, I'm getting the signal. Ladies and gentlemen, joining us from New York City, it's the lovely comedian Ali Breen, who is also our sexpert, as they call it.

[Ali Breen]

Gosh is right. Some of them are kinky and weird today. Yep.

[Christy Lee]

Ali, Pat, during the break, composed a song for you.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

I asked Pat to compose in the last eight minutes a theme song for Sexy Time with Ali Breen. Now, I. I the. The word Ali Breen has to be in it.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, I'm the writer.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm writing this song. I'm in.

[Chick McGee]

No, it's in there.

[Pat Godwin]

Sexy Time.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

And the women are easy. Folks are hu. Aunt Osu is high. Jeff Osu is high.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

Josh's mom is rich. Actually married to a man named.

[Pat Godwin]

And Alec Breen's good looking. So hump sexy baby, I'm your guy. And this is sexy.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, about hump sexy baby. What did you say?

[Josh Arnold]

That's right.

[Ali Breen]

You heard him.

[Tom Griswold]

I had eight minutes.

[Chick McGee]

And don't forget, I'm your guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Hump I think. Hump sexy baby. If. If anyone has ever uttered that they

[Josh Arnold]

are alone or a Vietnamese.

[Chick McGee]

No, no. Pardon me, man. I have a piece of chess, right.

[Pat Godwin]

Don't mind my Hump sexy baby.

[Tom Griswold]

Me love you long time. Hump sexy baby.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that what you're saying, American Joe? Hump sexy baby.

[Christy Lee]

That was.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you. Thank you, Patty. Maybe you can polish that by next week. Let's see now. The name of the show is Sexy Time, and Ali Breen is our host. The way this works is you can reach her on your favorite social media platform, A L L I B R E E N. Send your love troubles. We'll try to fix them with this panel of idiots, including yours truly. What have we got, Ali?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Allie, my husband and I are both on our second marriages and we both have two kids. His ex has custody of his, so he fully supports her. And I'm the main breadwinner in our family. We get all the kids really nice gifts and the best clothes. Really whatever they want on my dime for the most part. But his kids always just thank their mom and dad. No one tells them it's mostly coming from me. Am I wrong for wanting some credit? Especially when their mom literally adds $0 to the. The kids are 11 and 14, so it's not like she can't work.

[Christy Lee]

Whoa.

[Chick McGee]

No, but.

[Tom Griswold]

So the essence of the letter is that she wants a little bit of credit for.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Sounds like they're really in love.

[Jess Hooker]

No, I don't think I.

[Tom Griswold]

But, I mean, he should. He should make the presence. They should say, hey, this is for me. And whatever.

[Jess Hooker]

That's on the dad. Yeah. But. But if I could be serious for a split second, let. Let time pass, and the kids will eventually figure it out. Like, it. It's not necessary for right now.

[Josh Arnold]

I've always heard parents, particularly divorced parents, say that.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Kids figure it out.

[Jess Hooker]

They figure it out. And I don't mean that like there's no trauma, but I mean that, like, you don't need to talk crap about the other parents.

[Christy Lee]

No, they.

[Jess Hooker]

The parent. The kids will grow up, they will become adults, and they'll go, oh, my gosh. That was actually my stepmom that was buying all that stuff for us. That's awesome. Like, let's. It'll. It'll figure itself out.

[Tom Griswold]

I think you're probably right on that.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. They're smarter than you think.

[Jess Hooker]

Yep.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah. Much like the parents who try to be cool when kids grow up, they realize, like, they're terrible parents. Yeah. Yeah. The parents who are like, just have a drink.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a second. There's nothing wrong with parents trying to be cool. And in my experience, you will. You are informed constantly how cool you aren't. Believe me, I. I find that out every day.

[Ali Breen]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

You can.

[Chick McGee]

You can't. You can't not be cool.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah, Tom. You've got to be cool.

[Chick McGee]

Dad.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

You say yes to everything. How could they not think you're cool?

[Tom Griswold]

Because they've got eyes.

[Chick McGee]

I'm so sick of you saying yes to everything.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's get to our next letter. Ali Breen. Once again. A L, L, I, B, R, E, E, N. I. Spell it out so you can find her on your favorite social media platform. Allie, what do you got?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Allie, I just found out my brother in law got a BJ at his bachelor party. There's no way my sister knows this. This. They've already been married for three years and have a little girl. If it gets back to her that I knew about this and didn't tell her, I don't think she'll ever speak to me again. And I also feel like I can't look at him the same way. And I need to say something. How do I handle it?

[Chick McGee]

Well, wait a minute.

[Christy Lee]

Did you say.

[Chick McGee]

Did you say BJ or dj?

[Pat Godwin]

B. Bj.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, this is where you need to leave the country. Yeah. There's nothing you can do.

[Christy Lee]

You gotta give.

[Tom Griswold]

Just shut up.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, she's not going to. I don't know you. I don't know why you wrote us. You've already made up your mind. You're gonna tell, right?

[Ali Breen]

Yep.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You're telling somebody.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Well, you told us.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You simply have.

[Ali Breen]

You.

[Jess Hooker]

You want us to give you permission to tell. And we're not exact.

[Josh Arnold]

No, we're not. You have no chill.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Ali Breen]

You.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Worry about your life.

[Josh Arnold]

So go ahead, blow things up.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

So to speak. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This is a mess.

[Christy Lee]

This happens. This happens at bachelor parties. That's.

[Josh Arnold]

No, it doesn't. That's what also pisses me off. This is so rare.

[Christy Lee]

All women think that.

[Chick McGee]

All women do think.

[Christy Lee]

All women do, don't they?

[Josh Arnold]

I know, and it's ridiculous. This is as rare as it gets.

[Christy Lee]

Really.

[Chick McGee]

Here's the average bachelor party. What you gonna do when they blow you?

[Josh Arnold]

I'm surprised that this is the first time I've actually heard of any sexual activity happening at a bachelor party involving the groom.

[Jess Hooker]

But I'm curious. We don't know who it. We don't know if it was a stripper.

[Christy Lee]

It wasn't the groomer.

[Tom Griswold]

I haven't been to one in about 40 years because the last one I went to, my buddy Ricky and I Both left after 10 minutes because there was.

[Christy Lee]

There.

[Chick McGee]

It wasn't the. So crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

It was the bride's father.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

On the floor with a stripper. What's the. How can I worded this delicately? She had borrowed some eggs from the refrigerator which she was emitting. You know something.

[Josh Arnold]

And what was the dad doing?

[Tom Griswold]

He was lying in his. Lying down on the floor, sucking on

[Chick McGee]

the eggs and then having some eggs.

[Tom Griswold]

This was. This was like at 5:30.

[Josh Arnold]

But there was no sex.

[Tom Griswold]

I had just got.

[Chick McGee]

Well.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I mean I left.

[Josh Arnold]

No, see, Chris, you're one of the women who think that this stuff happens at bachelor parties.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I did.

[Josh Arnold]

It doesn't. Well, I'm with Josh. Every time I've been doing the entertainers have security. Exactly. It's never. This stuff doesn't. This rarely happens.

[Ali Breen]

Don't they have the ability to do some extracurricular stuff if they want to? Or is that also a mess being watched? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, no, it doesn't. I mean yes, there probably are bachelor parties where a whore has come and banged the groom. But I'm telling you that's. That is one out of 100.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, maybe that was the one that this guy went to. Let's move on.

[Chick McGee]

You know what else, Josh? You guys like you cause Woodstock 90. Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

It's the same argument.

[Chick McGee]

You're damn right.

[Tom Griswold]

Now would this change it? I have a technical question.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Without getting too graphic, was the recipient was her brother in law. Is that correct?

[Ali Breen]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. What if the giver had been the groom?

[Josh Arnold]

The groom was the recipient. The groom is her brother in law.

[Ali Breen]

But if they.

[Christy Lee]

I understood it that her brother in law had been married for three years and has a kid.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

So.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, at his bachelor party. She said at his bachelor party three years ago.

[Christy Lee]

Three years ago.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

And she's just finding out about. I thought this guy was at somebody else.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, so did I.

[Pat Godwin]

No, his.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, so then for God's sake, keep your mouth shut.

[Tom Griswold]

What if it had. What if it had been his dad? Never. Never mind.

[Chick McGee]

Well, how did she. How did she finally find out?

[Josh Arnold]

Who knows?

[Chick McGee]

That's the easiest thing to watch.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't realize this was three year old history.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but she came down, she can't wait to tell somebody directly involved.

[Tom Griswold]

Just waited three years. I think the time she just found out the statute of limitations is over. Just blather it all over town. Let's get to our next letter, Ali Breen.

[Ali Breen]

Dear Allie, my girlfriend has a cat and the cat tries to sleep on my head every night and wakes us up at 6am every morning. She refuses to lock her out, and I've asked her repeatedly. I feel like she's choosing my cat over me and she says I sound like a bit baby. Who's right?

[Josh Arnold]

You do sound like a baby. But there's nothing. There's. There's. Locking the cat out will not help. It'll make the situation worse.

[Christy Lee]

Cat will meow the whole time and

[Ali Breen]

throw itself against the door.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, this is what cats do. If you hate it, you got to

[Tom Griswold]

break up, get catnip and secretly rub it all over her hair and then

[Chick McGee]

the cat will sleep on her head. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Am I right? What's the matter?

[Josh Arnold]

I'm listening.

[Christy Lee]

Not a bad solution.

[Tom Griswold]

See, that way the cat just spends all its time lying on her face. It doesn't work.

[Chick McGee]

No, this why.

[Tom Griswold]

This is why I have dogs, Okay?

[Ali Breen]

A dog like a cat or a dog sleeping.

[Christy Lee]

The dogs take up way much, way, much more space than the cat does.

[Tom Griswold]

I had a dog in my face last night because there was some thunder, and every time it thunders, all of a sudden I've got. Got a two dogs and a golden retriever in my bed.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm terror. I'll sacrifice good night's sleep for the pets to sleep.

[Christy Lee]

So will I. Yeah, I'm not.

[Josh Arnold]

And I.

[Jess Hooker]

It's because I have an allergy and I have an essential oil that I put on the corners of my bed sheets and it keeps the cat out of my bed.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, there you go. There's real advice.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, sorry. Hey, in Josh's case, on his bed, the essential oil is mola.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I wish I knew what mola was.

[Christy Lee]

Oil.

[Pat Godwin]

Cooking oil.

[Josh Arnold]

Should I say a joke because I'm overweight?

[Christy Lee]

No, no.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a joke because you want to have sex with slippery stuff all over the place.

[Christy Lee]

You should have said, like, Crisco or something.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, Crisco would have been because you eat pizza. And either way, the joke doesn't work. Which, by the way, Ali, has been our theme today. If you have any jokes that aren't working in your act, try them now because they're still going to be better than anything we have said.

[Ali Breen]

Love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, once again, we have Ali Breen, comedian, on the line with us with the show Sexy Time on the line. What else have you got?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Allie, my wife and I have not been getting along for the past six months or so. Everything becomes an argument. We started going to therapy, and it kind of helped, but I also started a flirty relationship at work. My wife, therapy's working. And said that she thinks that we can stop and I'm totally fine with quitting, even though that's not the real reason I'm happier. Do you think I'm being unethical, allowing her to stop therapy with me? I still don't see anything wrong. What do you think?

[Josh Arnold]

What? I think it's over.

[Tom Griswold]

As Josh said a few minutes ago, this guy just wants permission.

[Chick McGee]

Have you thought about going to a bachelor party at some point?

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, oh, boy, man.

[Christy Lee]

Dude.

[Ali Breen]

Wow. Yeah, I mean, I think in his mind, he thinks it's not gonna go further than flirting, and that's enough to help him.

[Chick McGee]

I like the way he put it, though.

[Ali Breen]

It's a flirty relationship I've just embarked upon.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

It's over. Next.

[Ali Breen]

Dear Ally, my girlfriend has recently had trouble with her skin, and her friend convinced her that a semen mask would help.

[Josh Arnold]

And you're telling us why?

[Chick McGee]

Cause I'm telling everybody.

[Tom Griswold]

We just want to know, how much did you pay her friends to tell her that?

[Ali Breen]

You would think, but that's not where it. So now I was super excited. I get a BJ every night before bed, but then she collects my serum and puts it all over her face before you go to sleep.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my. It's like sleeping with a gallon of Clorox.

[Ali Breen]

Maybe some people would be into this, but it really grosses me out. I get that. I'm lucky to be getting

[Jess Hooker]

ruined, man.

[Josh Arnold]

The mask really ruins it. He says.

[Tom Griswold]

I would recommend maybe Googling, get a little bit of factual information and demonstrate to her that that is not, in fact, a.

[Chick McGee]

So the. The friend that convinced her she needed a semen mask, is it just like

[Christy Lee]

a practical joke or was it a guy?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this. This sounds like something right off. Right off the Internet.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

They say that this is. This is a legit, like, Internet thing right now.

[Tom Griswold]

And, you know, some dude thought of this.

[Christy Lee]

Of course.

[Josh Arnold]

I say don't look a gift horse in the mouth. That's doing you a favor. Just. Yeah, get over. It's not. Unless she's using your pillow. Who cares?

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, I. I honestly, I. I thought this was going to go a different direction.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we all did.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I thought it was going to be somebody else's seat that was like. Like store bought.

[Christy Lee]

No, we weren't thinking that.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, you go to the.

[Ali Breen]

Oh, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

You go to the Health food store. And they have, you know, male seed from some company. And she's like, I heard rearrange. There's some jacketorium in Malaysia where they're bottling the stuff.

[Ali Breen]

Oh, God. Yeah. I don't think anyone thought.

[Christy Lee]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

Or was it Malaysia?

[Tom Griswold]

A jacketorium in Malaysia, that'd be a thing for Shark Tank. Where do you get that?

[Ali Breen]

Last thing is she's now ruining BJ's completely for me. He's having an association situation.

[Christy Lee]

Well, the most important question to ask here is how does her skin look?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. You didn't tell us what her complexion is like.

[Christy Lee]

Right, right.

[Ali Breen]

Until we hear the results, we can't judge.

[Josh Arnold]

Did it remove brown spots? Did it help with eye wrinkles?

[Tom Griswold]

I mean. Well, yeah, that's the point. I mean, she's losing her wrinkles and taking the ones out of. Nevermind. Time for us to go. Thank you very much. Ally, are you working this weekend in the city?

[Ali Breen]

I'm in the city this weekend. I'm at the Comedy Village in Midtown. And then at the end of the month, I'm back in Reno. On March 28, I'm at the Golden Nugget.

[Josh Arnold]

They couldn't get enough of you.

[Tom Griswold]

How'd that happen?

[Ali Breen]

Apparently, I'm a big act in Reno now.

[Tom Griswold]

How did that go last time you were there?

[Christy Lee]

Biggest little act in Reno.

[Ali Breen]

Much fun. It was just outside of Reno where I was performing. So now I'll be in Reno when I go back there. But it was great. The people were so. Yeah.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Fun.

[Ali Breen]

And they were like drunk cowboys. They were really fun.

[Josh Arnold]

That is fun.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, well, thanks. Thanks, Ally. We always appreciate it.

[Ali Breen]

Thanks, guys.

[Chick McGee]

See you next week.

[Tom Griswold]

Right now, I want to talk to you about something I'm very excited about. It's the aura frame. There's one right behind Josh kissing a girl.

[Jess Hooker]

It's me.

[Josh Arnold]

Me.

[Christy Lee]

That's you?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's me. That's. Is that. Is that Christie on the left?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. That was you?

[Ali Breen]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

We were in Orlando.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, wow.

[Tom Griswold]

At a bar. And there's.

[Christy Lee]

Is that Jeff Oskar dressed as Barbie?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Barbie in real life.

[Tom Griswold]

In the old days, they'd call this a slideshow. Today, it's like a PowerPoint, but it's fun. We have loaded the aura frame with a bunch of pictures. There's Willie G on stage and they rotate. Is that the word I'm looking for? The pictures cycle through, if you will.

[Chick McGee]

You must have been over here 11 or 12 last night Loading these pictures onto your. This frame.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

I think Ms. Hooker loaded a bunch of those and it's, you can load it from a remote location. I loaded some of them on there that I got at my house. The aura frame is so cool.

[Chick McGee]

No way.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's a great gift. You can put lots and lots of I pretty much unlimited photographs and videos on there.

[Chick McGee]

Photographs and memories.

This was named number one by Wirecutter. This is a really cool device. It's a handsome frame. Be a great gift for maybe for your mom.

[Christy Lee]

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, very good. And once you got it loaded, you can keep loading it. There's a nice picture of Josh Arnold with all kinds of hands on his head. That's weird. But you can put any kind of photographs you want on there. Weird ones or nice ones.

[Josh Arnold]

Those are your daughter in law's hands.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good to know.

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts studios. Think O'Reilly 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. the news desk, it's Christy Lee. Hello, there's Pat Godwin Hey, Chick. There's Jess Hooker.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom. What are you looking at over there?

[Tom Griswold]

A couple quick things. Pat, I enjoyed your song about Ali Breen.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, I tried my best.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe give a little polish.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Touch it up a little bit. Punch up.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it was good.

[Christy Lee]

Would you like to hear another song from Pat?

[Tom Griswold]

I certainly would.

[Christy Lee]

Well, we have a story that would go with it.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

A meteorite crashed through the roof of a home in Germany.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, sir.

[Christy Lee]

The New York Times reports that the bright fireball was spotted burning through the skies of northwestern Europe early last Sunday morning. During the fiery light show, several buildings in Germany's Rhineland station state were damaged by falling debris. One house in Koblenz had been punctured by at least one larger meteorite. The space rock crashed into an unoccupied bedroom. No injuries were reported.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, Tom. It was space rock.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just. I just googled this. This. This looks so cool. There's a.

[Chick McGee]

They've got it.

[Tom Griswold]

There's this thing going across the sky, flashing.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

It's really amazing, the opportunity to see

[Christy Lee]

one of those live.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, I have a dumb question. What? Maybe someone can answer this for me. Does the average homeowner's policy cover, A, natural meteors falling and B, space junk?

[Chick McGee]

Would that be considered.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat Godwin song actually answers that question? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just curious if in the real world, or you have to get a separate policy? Because I know that they're saying that in the next few years, the amount of space junk that's going to be falling.

[Christy Lee]

So instead of flood insurance, you'll have space junk insurance.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just wondering if it's part of a standard homeowner's policy.

[Josh Arnold]

Not sure.

[Pat Godwin]

Christy, what are the details again?

[Tom Griswold]

Quickly.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm right. I'm writing on the fly.

[Christy Lee]

A meteorite in Germany falls through a unoccupied bedroom. Got it.

[Tom Griswold]

Here we go.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Wake up in the morning with a hole in the roof. Like a bombed out village in 1939. No, it's on meteorite. Seeing flames in the skies brings back such memories we'd like you to forget. But the world remembers these. Oh, no. I swear to God, this time it's just oud meteorite. He blew up the beer hall but toasted the brats. I like mine with un sauerkraut.

[Daniel Buckspan]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, no, it's spicy mustard tonight.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. Our apologies to everyone involved in the meteorite song.

[Chick McGee]

Spicy mustard on pretzel Town.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I was hoping that they'd have. Oh, no. No, thank you.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I do love those pretzels at the airport.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, they make thick auntie hands the workhorse of the industry.

[Tom Griswold]

And I understand they're. They're calorie free, right, Christy?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well, yeah. You're in the airport. Okay. That's another vacation.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. None of the calories count.

[Tom Griswold]

I was hoping there'd be a picture of this. Of this house that had been hit. I've been able to find it yet. But there is. There's some pretty cool shots of this meteorite flying over Europe Sunday morning. Very, very interesting stuff. Now, I mentioned the. The space debris.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Scientists at NASA say a planetary defense test that deliberately crashed a spacecraft into an asteroid successfully changed the asteroid's orbit.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Researchers report the experiment marked the first time humans intentionally altered the path of a celestial body in space. The asteroid struck by NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection test was never a threat to Earth. By the way, they call it dart. But scientists say the results could help provide a method to deflect a potentially dangerous asteroid in the future.

[Josh Arnold]

That's.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the whole premise of which movie is that?

[Josh Arnold]

Armageddon. They actually land on it.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Josh Arnold]

Start drilling into it so that they can.

[Tom Griswold]

But they did it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This is like billiards or curling in space.

[Josh Arnold]

Pretty cool.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I'm surprised it didn't get more publicity.

[Josh Arnold]

Glad it worked.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah, that's. That's good to know.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Next time it'll be armed with a nuclear warhead. We'll blow that baby to smithereens.

[Christy Lee]

And I would like to writing a movie.

[Tom Griswold]

And please someone email me and find. I want to find out if. If media rights are covered by the average homeowner's insurance and is space junk. That's, you know, obviously man made because they say a lot of it's going to start raining down on Earth.

[Christy Lee]

Raining down.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

And they're unavoidable.

[Chick McGee]

It sounds like something I should be worried about.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you know how many satellites.

[Christy Lee]

Are you gonna start walking around with a big umbrella of tin or something?

[Tom Griswold]

You know what the big concern is?

[Chick McGee]

Tell me, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

It hits an airplane.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, Jesus.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. If you're sitting there in row six and the guy in row four gets clocked by a.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, a softball sized chunk of metal. It's over.

[Josh Arnold]

If that happens. It was your time.

[Christy Lee]

How do you get out of bed in the morning? You're afraid of.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I'm not walking around fearful of that. If it happens, it happens.

[Tom Griswold]

If there is a guy. God, your. Your house is gonna get. Your garage is gonna be taken up by a meteorite, and you're gonna walk in Monday. I can't believe the insurance didn't cover it.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't have insurance.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, don't tell your mortgage people about that. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, and this is the Bob and Tom Show.
