Episode Overview

This episode of The BOB & TOM Show delivers the show's trademark mix of offbeat humor, personal banter, listener letters, sports talk, and strange news stories. The crew kicks off with Pat Godwin's underwhelming $3 birthday cake, digresses through topics both mundane and bizarre (from Hobby Lobby trips to micro phallus awareness), tackles sports oddities (NFL Combine standout mullets, scoreboard failures), and features a lively interview with a professional radio tower climber. Quirky musical interludes, escalating innuendo, and listener correspondence add layers to the lively, conversational style the show is known for.

[Josh Arnold]

Look at that. Just a plain chocolate store bought cake for Patty.

He doesn't get one from the cake lady. Well, Pat, last year I didn't get one at all. This year I get a store bought cake.

[Chick McGee]

Well, lady retires.

[Tom Griswold]

In our. In our defense, since you hadn't been here for the last 10 days. Yeah, I didn't want to have Amy make a really.

[Pat Godwin]

I had a hang.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't want like a Betty Ford logo on a cake, so I.

[Pat Godwin]

You don't need to go there. That was my ex wife listening.

[Christy Lee]

So uncomfortable right now.

I don't want to go to court.

It was a. That's a nice little cake.

Grateful? Well, let's cut into that enemy can you?

Don't. Don't blow those candles out. No, don't blow them out because I don't want to get your germs all over the cake.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's true. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No, that's how it goes in the COVID era.

[Josh Arnold]

Chantilly cake, I get a crappy one.

A Scott, a nice cake. $400 cake, I get a $3 cake.

[Josh Arnold]

The candles cost more than the damn cake.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, hey, the plate cost more than.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, just kick it into the sewer.

[Chick McGee]

We're not eating it.

[Pat Godwin]

I ain't touching that.

[Josh Arnold]

Remember earlier when I said about pills?

[Chick McGee]

See you in hell before I take a taste of that crap.

[Josh Arnold]

Rather eat worms.

[Christy Lee]

What is happening here?

[Tom Griswold]

Real bad. See Christy with her long needles?

[Josh Arnold]

We'll be lucky if this time next year Spam sponsors us.

[Pat Godwin]

It tastes better than that cake.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you see the writing in the. On the cake?

[Pat Godwin]

There was no writing in the cake.

[Tom Griswold]

He said, happy birthday, Pat Goodwin. But I wasn't going to spend three bucks for a second cake.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, why didn't we just throw a Twinkie at him? Happy birthday, you son of a. Hit you right in the chest with

[Chick McGee]

thanks for stopping by. Go back to Ireland. Maybe I'll see you tomorrow. I don't know.

[Pat Godwin]

Everybody else gets a $50k.

[Tom Griswold]

50.

[Pat Godwin]

It's more than that.

[Chick McGee]

That's too way low. From the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, the Bob and Tom show starts now. That's like a news thing. See a lot of news over the weekend. Oh, my gosh. They all say that the such and such news starts now.

[Tom Griswold]

All the weekday anchors had to come back.

[Chick McGee]

Starts now. Oh, yeah. Hello, Christy.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

She's over there at the news center. Speaking of news there. And it's not news, it's news. There's Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Hartles.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Wow. Ace Cosby. He's wiping his glasses. I know the struggle. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom. Hello. You're not gonna last long in those short sleeves in this room, pal.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I'm just a little toasty. All right.

[Chick McGee]

I. Oh, hey, I know you're hot. Yeah, I've got a.

[Tom Griswold]

What is this called? A fleece. Just in case. All right, sir, Check local listings.

[Chick McGee]

Shacket.

[Tom Griswold]

And I don't like the word shacket.

[Josh Arnold]

Love it.

[Chick McGee]

Really. Shack it. I'm up to my hips and shackets.

[Christy Lee]

Are you obsession?

[Chick McGee]

I love shack. No, no, not a new obsession at all.

[Tom Griswold]

Technically, what is a shacket?

[Chick McGee]

A shirt, jacket, Shacket. Okay, you really have a jerk. Maybe, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, that sounds like something like a commercial with Shaquille o'. Neal. Hey, shack it.

[Chick McGee]

No, just like you. Yeah, I got a shacket. Okay, it's a 5x, but I have a shack.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up, we have a huge news. In the world of scoreboards, you'll be.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we all know how. We all know how fascinated Tom is with the scoreboard.

[Christy Lee]

That's true.

[Tom Griswold]

Scoreboard technology is just amazing.

[Christy Lee]

It's come a long way.

[Chick McGee]

It just took off. You actually really noticed it. What? Last year, late last year, you went to a WWA game and I lost your mind. The scoreboard, you said, keeps you up to date on everything.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, everything.

[Chick McGee]

Everything.

[Tom Griswold]

They got everything up there. I mean, when I grew up, the scoreboard at Cleveland Stadium, there were two guys sweating, but with metal numbers trying to keep up.

[Christy Lee]

And it's at home. Visitor, Right?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, pretty sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly. They were too cheap to even put up.

[Josh Arnold]

Cleese.

[Tom Griswold]

Cle.

[Chick McGee]

Wrigley Field.

[Tom Griswold]

Still.

[Chick McGee]

Still has.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's, of course, classic.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, right.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean, just unbelievable stats. It's great. Now, that's, of course, to accommodate the betting on every play, but we have an oddball story from the NBA about something involving a scoreboard.

[Chick McGee]

If you say so.

[Tom Griswold]

It's an anomaly in the Something, something on the sporting.

[Chick McGee]

Something on the scoreboard got stuck and they just had to unplug.

[Tom Griswold]

No need to give away the whole story. This is called a teaser.

[Chick McGee]

It's not a big damn deal. But I know you're excited about it. You're excited world. I think. Fascinating.

[Tom Griswold]

I think, let's face it, the NBA has gotten so boring. This is the most exciting story.

[Chick McGee]

No, that is. That is a actual point that you're making there. Believe it or not, that's one of the problems. The WNBA guys are saying they up and down the court and they shoot a three. America likes the three, but they don't like. They want to see drives to the bucket. They want to see slam dunks. They don't want to see some guy that looks like Christy Lee out there on the. See, that's the way it used to be, right? John Paxton, three point shot. That's your job. Steve Kirk, a three point. That's your job. But now Victor Wembanyama can drain the 3. He's 7 4.

[Christy Lee]

Also, he should be driving the arts there.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't we discover that there are young men at the NFL combine that are actually faster off the line than a. Than John Force? I can a race car.

[Christy Lee]

That's a good enough.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's a dragster guy.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Six five, 244 pounds. That's Ohio State linebacker Sonny Stiles. Six five two four four. Ran a 4.4 40.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, that shouldn't be possible.

[Chick McGee]

He's coming at you. Here he comes. He's going to tackle you.

[Tom Griswold]

Good luck.

[Chick McGee]

He's running. And that's just a drill game speed, probably a tick faster.

[Christy Lee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

You could drop me from an airplane. I wouldn't do the first 40 yards that fast.

[Chick McGee]

You know the. But you'll like this story from the combine over the weekend. Did you watch the combine at all like I did? Did you?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I had a great weekend.

[Chick McGee]

Did you turn the sound down and play music that you hadn't heard before and watch combine?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I got everything done.

[Josh Arnold]

You got.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

I went to. I went to the hardware store at least three times. I went to Hobby Lobby. I got it all done.

[Christy Lee]

What were you making?

[Tom Griswold]

All kinds.

[Chick McGee]

I just fixed everything up, Tom. Oh, you say I hit the lobby.

[Tom Griswold]

I hit the lobby, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You don't say. You don't say Hobby and lobby.

[Tom Griswold]

I'd never been there before. Before.

[Chick McGee]

You'd never been to the lobby? No, the lobby is. I needed some stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

I Had to do some sewing. And my. Yes.

[Chick McGee]

As.

[Tom Griswold]

And as the only heterosexual man that used to frequent Joanne Fabrics.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my God. I.

[Tom Griswold]

They closed.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't know what to do.

[Chick McGee]

If you want a. A fish standing up on its fin with a clock in its belly, the lobby has it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. I didn't realize what they had. I didn't. Needed a bunch of other stuff.

[Chick McGee]

So if you want a gnome that spins his head toward the direction of the wind with a big red cap, he puts you your front yard. The lobby has it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I got all kinds of stuff, but I had a great weekend. It just got every little task at my house.

[Christy Lee]

Making a little jumper. What were you.

[Chick McGee]

No, I had to do your dress for the spring formal.

[Tom Griswold]

I had to fix some curtains. It's too boring to explain.

[Christy Lee]

Point. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

I had to fix.

[Tom Griswold]

I fixed my garage door opener. Just everything I had had to get done, I got done. It was great.

[Chick McGee]

Now, does that mean you put batteries in the remote, or what does that mean when you said you fix your garage door opener because you could take your hand off trying to do something like that?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, the remote code thing, you know, you pump the code in, it opens the garage door.

[Christy Lee]

You had to put a new battery in that.

[Pat Godwin]

Pump the code in.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. It's quite tricky, Chris.

[Chick McGee]

You know what I've done? You know what I'. There's a button on my rear view mirror. I push that button after I'd programmed it. Push that button, garage door comes up. Josh, you got a. One of those. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You push. You program it, right? Push the button.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep. You don't need the. The remote that it came with.

[Tom Griswold]

But, Josh, if you go on a walk.

[Chick McGee]

Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You get back to your house and you want to go in the garage.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I can hit that code.

[Tom Griswold]

Hit that little code thing.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, right.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, those things eventually burn up.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm surprised yours burned up so quickly.

[Tom Griswold]

So.

[Chick McGee]

But how long you been in your house? What, 20, 25 years?

[Tom Griswold]

Two.

[Chick McGee]

Two years.

[Josh Arnold]

Two years seems pretty. That seems too soon to have to change that.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, but.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, and then. But when you do, then you got to get on a ladder, you got to climb up, and you got to hit one button, get down from the ladder, run out to the thing, hit the code.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's the learning. It's learning. Yeah, because you got a rolling code.

[Tom Griswold]

I got that done.

[Josh Arnold]

One of those. Oh, that's good. It's nice to have that done.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a minute. Hold it. You're saying you got it done?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Oh, that was. I got the curtain thing done.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I got so much done.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Got some sewing done.

[Christy Lee]

I like it.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right. I can so.

[Chick McGee]

But you didn't have time to watch combine.

[Tom Griswold]

I couldn't care less, man.

[Chick McGee]

You're just not a fan, are you?

[Tom Griswold]

Not that much. I've got a life I lead on my own.

[Chick McGee]

I tell you, I tried to watch it with the sound up, and those guys were driving me nuts, so I had to turn it down and play regular.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, there's only so much NFL I can take. It's. I enjoy watching a game occasionally, but I don't have to know the jockstrap size of some goon from Ohio State.

[Chick McGee]

What did you just say? A goon?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

He's eight feet tall. You can run the 40 in two seconds.

[Chick McGee]

What was a guy? Six, nine.

[Tom Griswold]

Three.

[Chick McGee]

46. Nine. 346. Ran like a five.

[Tom Griswold]

One.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. See, physics tells us that that man should fall apart as he's going that fast. 9. But there's an arm and you would

[Tom Griswold]

be the first one to tell me, though sometimes the young men who perform the best at the combine end up being total busts.

[Chick McGee]

Certainly that's the thing. They have been trying a surefire way to find out who is going to be successful in the NFL for decades. As long as. As long as the league's been alive.

[Tom Griswold]

And a certain would be quarterback did a backflip at the combine, got drafted early, and he's been a complete disaster.

[Chick McGee]

Brock Purdy, the last guy chosen the starting quarterback for the Niners. Who would have thought our good buddy

[Tom Griswold]

Jeff Saturday, last guy. Last guy picked, ends up being a tremendous athlete.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that makes sense. Saturday's kind of squat and slow and not real smart.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, God, Jeff, please come and pound him.

[Josh Arnold]

Chick. We have a surprise for you.

[Tom Griswold]

He's only the nicest, most honest, great guy.

[Chick McGee]

I haven't seen him in forever.

[Tom Griswold]

As charitable a man, a tremendous broadcaster.

[Chick McGee]

If irritating him makes him show up and punch me, I. At least it's worth it. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Got a signed jersey out there from Jeff. What they should do to make the combine more fun is award prizes. Like, big ones. Because some of these guys, some of these guys aren't going to get drafted, but they're great. Like best. Best 40 yard dash and by weight class, you win 100 grand. Come on, incentivize it.

[Chick McGee]

100 grand, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

People could bet on it.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my gosh.

[Tom Griswold]

This is. This is. Wait a minute. This is a great. I can't believe I'm giving this idea to the NFL for free. Being able to bet on the combine,

[Chick McGee]

that would be impossible. There's too many variables. Or I. I guess you could top 40 time, stuff like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I thought you could. Oh, can you? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Beats me. I'm just saying they. They're not giving guys prizes though, are they?

[Chick McGee]

It seems ridiculous.

[Pat Godwin]

They gave one guy a toaster, I think.

[Christy Lee]

Did they?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Toaster. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Pretty nice.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, nice. Four slicer.

[Chick McGee]

There was a guy who were on one best mullet. You'll see him later.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, good.

[Chick McGee]

Gorgeous red mullet.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up, we have your letters. Some exciting stuff. In the. In the world of news today, we have a huge thing about natural laxatives. In the news, we have what you. What your kid might find in his lunchbox that contains alcohol.

[Chick McGee]

Did you say natural accident?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Celestial news coming up. This is a cool story.

[Josh Arnold]

Everything is still where it should be, right? The sun is.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, but. Oh, but there's a whole thing in the. In the. In the world of extraterrestrials. No. What do they call people who believe in astrology?

[Chick McGee]

Astrologers.

[Tom Griswold]

Astrologists. Okay, good. There's a whole big thing about astrology, about the planets. They're like seven of them are visible or something.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. Tonight, all kinds of cool stuff. Six, I think.

[Tom Griswold]

And we. We have candy that's infused with Viagra.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Illegally. That's out there. You may have have one of those in your beds at the end. We'll find out about that.

[Josh Arnold]

Talk about hard candy.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yes. By definition. Thank you very much.

[Chick McGee]

And speaking of Josh, what's sitting behind Josh there?

[Tom Griswold]

Tom, that is a beautiful aura frame. I am a huge fan of aura frames and what it's like. It's. Right now. I can't see who that is. Oh, that's a Nick Griffin and Ali Breen. And that's switching to a picture of us dressed as presidents. I'm Franklin Roosevelt in the wheelchair.

[Chick McGee]

Is that me as Grant?

[Tom Griswold]

Is Christy Truman in that?

[Chick McGee]

Kids.

[Christy Lee]

No, I wasn't here that year.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Who is that?

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Who you.

[Josh Arnold]

Who you. Look. That is you in the picture.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, maybe it is. Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

In any event, it's rotating pictures there. These beautiful photographs.

[Chick McGee]

You're talking about when she was dressed as Teddy Roosevelt.

[Christy Lee]

That's the only one I remember.

[Chick McGee]

And had the mustache.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I just. It's. It's. The aura frame is a little too far away. But the point is that it contains lots of pictures and you can load this remotely. It's a great gift. I'm a huge fan. When they first brought one in here, I immediately got one and I have one at my house in the hallway when you first walk in by the garage where I just of course installed that new thing I told you about earlier. This is a great gift. You preloaded if you want and then just say you give one to your mom. You could send her a new picture every day. And even if she lives in a different state, free unlimited storage no matter where she lives. Yeah, there might be certain exceptions, I would imagine. I think they're legal in every state and it's a great way to share photos. It's really cool. And it also stores videos. It's been named number one by Wirecutter. You can save on this great gift if you visit auraframes.com and use the promo code.

[Tom Griswold]

hey.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Christy Lee]

Hey.

[Chick McGee]

At the news desk, there's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. Hello. I'm Chick McGee. Hello. Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

I. It's. This is kind of odd to mention this, but I know Josh does not like it when I mention dreams. I try not to very often, except I had the weirdest dream and Josh was in it.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I think you get an exception because you don't abuse it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, this. I have no explanation for this because I. Josh is someone who's got a very even temper, tends not to get extremely angry unless it's. It's appropriate. Okay, so in the stream, we're doing a special broadcast. We're all in here, and we have sent Josh out on a fishing boat. And he's by himself on a bass boat. And it's incredibly hot and the sun is shining. And he starts screaming at me because his face is burning. And then in my dream, of course, I can see him and his face, he's got these huge patches of skin fall. Oh, this terrible, terrible sunburn. And he's just cursing me out on the radio. And then I woke up.

[Christy Lee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course, I had a full erection, but the. No, no, I mean, I. That I woke up one. What? How about, what is happening to me? Why would I dream that?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, the brain does something.

[Tom Griswold]

I know you love to fish, but the fact that we were making you do it, the fish weren't biting and you were frying.

[Christy Lee]

That's because you're a bully.

[Tom Griswold]

Even when I'm dreaming.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, well, you bully in your dream.

[Christy Lee]

Did you guys make it to the boat show?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Went to a boat show last week. It was great.

[Christy Lee]

Did you buy a boat?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no. Stole one.

[Christy Lee]

Did you?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

They're just sitting there.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

There were a bunch of them. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Do you buy some tackle? You buy a whizzer or a climber Nelly or something?

[Josh Arnold]

What is it? Oh, yeah, you can get yourself a Whopper Plopper.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Who names those?

[Chick McGee]

We could do it.

[Tom Griswold]

We could do a thing. Is this the name of a horse running in the Kentucky Derby? Or a fishing lure?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And the clubhouse turned as Whopper Clopper.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You got the old slobber knocker there.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, slobber knocker.

[Tom Griswold]

Naming things is really interesting. There's a. There are. There are firms that do that for various businesses. It's real tricky giving things cool names, but I always love the one of. Is it a alternate alternative band or a Kentucky Derby entry? We'll be looking forward to the derby just around the corner way. Now. Someone's gonna have to do an impression for me in a second here.

[Announcer]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Is it Raymond Burr?

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's not. It's. It's Greg Warren meeting Greg Warren. By the way, I watched Greg on Nate Bradzi's new game show.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. And how was it? I didn't get to see.

[Tom Griswold]

And Greg had a great line, by the way. Really terrific ad lib. And what is the show called? The Average American Something.

[Josh Arnold]

The greatest average.

[Tom Griswold]

The greatest Average American was fun. It was on ABC with Nate. Great stuff. Anyway, when Greg was on. On a Friday, he did something that this letter will acknowledge. Dear morning kings and queen of radio.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

This is from Joe. I work for Casey's as a pizza maker. So first of all, God bless you. God bless the pizza.

[Chick McGee]

Casey's got some great pizza, by the way.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Is there a patron saint of pizza making, by the way?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I don't know. I'll have to look that up.

[Tom Griswold]

I assume he's would be Italian, right?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yes.

[Chick McGee]

Well, a lot of your. A lot of your saints are Italian, Tom.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Seems to be a disproportionate. Disproportionate number of Italian.

[Chick McGee]

I'm just saying.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it seems a little odd to me too. Okay, I'm sorry. Well, Jesus was Italian, right?

[Christy Lee]

I think so.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good.

[Chick McGee]

Good. Way of Bethlehem.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, okay, sure.

[Chick McGee]

Hello?

[Tom Griswold]

He goes. This is once again Joe the pizza maker. I got an order yesterday. The customer's name was Dan Gardner.

[Josh Arnold]

No way.

[Tom Griswold]

All I could hear in my head was Greg Warren answering the phone as his old client, Dan Gardner.

[Chick McGee]

I can't do it justice.

[Josh Arnold]

I can't help but think that maybe that person also listened. That coincidence is too strong.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that's.

[Chick McGee]

We need to have Greg isolated doing Dan Gardner because I don't think anything.

[Tom Griswold]

Do we have it? We're getting.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll give you my best one and then we'll.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Dan Gardner.

[Tom Griswold]

That's pretty good.

[Chick McGee]

Pretty darn close.

[Tom Griswold]

And Dan Gardner was a client of Greg's and he. And when he was in sales and this. That's how he would answer his phone. Oh, and it was so special. Just right in the solid Place where you want it to be. Not too weird, but not ordinary.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Just had that sauce on it. Dan Gardner. It's pretty good. You got to give it a knee.

[Chick McGee]

Gardner.

[Tom Griswold]

There are certain broadcasters that have that where they. When they identify themselves, they have a certain way they pitch it that's just extra special. They put a pause in it or a little. A little sauce of some. Of some sort. I don't think any of us here have that necessarily.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if we don't need

[Josh Arnold]

that affectation, but I don't know if

[Chick McGee]

people say they put sauce on it. I thought it was flavor. You put some flavor.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's similar.

[Chick McGee]

I. I think it's yours.

[Christy Lee]

Flavors.

[Chick McGee]

And so. Yeah, but he came up with sauce, and there's nothing he's ever come up with. Has been cutting edge, hip. You know that. Thank you. No, it's just.

[Tom Griswold]

It's original and to the point.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Solid analogous to genius. Thank you.

[Chick McGee]

You know, longer the day they're gone that. I thought you were kidding when you said stuff like that. Yeah, I thought that was charming. Dear Bob and Tom show. Stop bothering me at work.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, our apology.

[Chick McGee]

Holy hell. This is from Craig. Over the weekend, he was listening to a best of driving across I90 in South Dakota. Listening on the podcast. Took a big swig of coffee, and I heard Christy say to Tom, I'll drive a semi up your ass.

[Christy Lee]

I did say that.

[Chick McGee]

I had to pull over and wipe coffee off my windshield.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, at one point, Craig from Sioux Falls, we went to one of those driving schools.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we did.

[Tom Griswold]

And Christy got to drive one of the big rigs.

[Christy Lee]

Sure did. Loved it.

[Tom Griswold]

Very tricky.

[Chick McGee]

We were in the parking lot, but we were driving the big rigs.

[Christy Lee]

We were.

[Tom Griswold]

I had a parallel park Saturday night. I was.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, troublesome.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't. It's. I hate it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there's a trick.

[Tom Griswold]

I know there's a trick, but whatever

[Chick McGee]

it is, rear view mirror.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know what it is.

[Chick McGee]

Look at my lineup. The driver's side, tail light to the curbside headlight and whipper in there.

[Tom Griswold]

Dear Bob and Tom show.

[Chick McGee]

What am I, invisible?

[Tom Griswold]

Comes. This comes to us from Chris in Bakersfield, California.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, and the home of Buck Owens, of course. Oh, yeah, that sounds Susan Ray. Is that her name?

[Christy Lee]

Had some fun in Bakersfield.

[Josh Arnold]

Does Chris have to say, I've always

[Tom Griswold]

wondered, Pat, you and I. I've always wondered what it must have been like for Buck Owens. He's a young singer, songwriter. He gets on a Beatles album way Early.

[Pat Godwin]

No kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That had to be a gigantic chick.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Lots of money, great songs. Okay, I agree.

[Chick McGee]

Only the exact opposite. Go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't like that song.

[Chick McGee]

Act Naturally.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

That was a Ringo. They gave it to Ringo. You know, he has a song.

[Tom Griswold]

If people that don't like Ringo, he's great.

[Josh Arnold]

Who's listening to Buck Owens in the Creedence song? What. What Creature? Or what? My Back Door?

[Chick McGee]

That's something to accounting. Flowers on the Wall. No, that's the Statler Brothers.

[Josh Arnold]

But yeah, the. He references Buck Owens in that song, but I can't remember who he says is listening to it or doing something.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, that's good reference to Buck Owens. Right, that part.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Recently you were discussing that there was only one year that the Grammys awarded Best Disco Album, which I thought was really odd. They had a new category and then they abandoned it almost immediately. Well, I recently was running through some older materials on your show and I heard your tribute to Disco with Sammy Davis Jr. Now, this was a television show. No one believed me that this existed.

[Chick McGee]

I still don't believe it.

[Tom Griswold]

The Disco Lifestyle Awards, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right, right.

[Tom Griswold]

It was an award show and they actually gave Sammy Davis Jr. The Lifetime Achievement award. Now, this show, because when you think

[Christy Lee]

disco, you think Sammy Davis Jr. Well,

[Tom Griswold]

this show is not. I have been unable to find it anywhere in the world of the Internet. You think it'd be floating around. It was a Dick Clark production.

[Josh Arnold]

You saw some reference to it in a.

[Tom Griswold]

And then. Yes. Someone sent us a copy of Jet magazine that has the. It's a. Got a TV Guide in it. And it has the Disco Lifestyle.

[Josh Arnold]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

And if you Google it, what you'll find is a reference to this. This piece that we created with satiric intent. And it goes as follows.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, performing a musical number

[Tom Griswold]

written especially for this evening, the Disco

[Chick McGee]

Lifestyle Award are proud to present Sammy Davis Jr. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you, man.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, man. Let's hit it for me.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go. I like to live but there's no light lifestyle I like to build an art disco world I want to disco marry you and have a disco family and we'll all live in a disco. I love the disco lifestyle I love

[Pat Godwin]

the disco lifestyle all right, let's.

[Tom Griswold]

You know. Disco has always.

[Chick McGee]

Man, I have lost my eye.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that is just fantastic.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that an actual song he is singing?

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's.

[Josh Arnold]

You guys just made it up.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Ricky. Oh, God, that's.

[Chick McGee]

You know, he lost his Eye in a car crash, the center, the center of the steering wheel jutted out, hit

[Josh Arnold]

him right now it was he and Sandy Duncan, right?

[Chick McGee]

They're in the same yard, same car. What are the options?

[Christy Lee]

He was sitting on his lap.

[Chick McGee]

Sitting on his lap.

[Tom Griswold]

And Shenan, is there a go to person with one eye now?

[Chick McGee]

I think it ended with Sandy Duncan. I don't think there is a one eyed famous public.

[Josh Arnold]

Somebody must.

[Christy Lee]

Somebody.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sure.

[Chick McGee]

But maybe, yeah, keep it on the down low. You think maybe, you know, is there

[Tom Griswold]

a famous star with.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

The glass.

[Chick McGee]

You think Hosier just has one eye or whatever the hell his name is. Somebody like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Somber, by the way, ladies and gentlemen,

[Chick McGee]

without any dua, Lipa only has one eye.

[Tom Griswold]

Further ado, please. Here it comes from Greg Warren.

[Chick McGee]

Ben Gardner. Oh, that's nice, man. That's gorgeous.

[Josh Arnold]

I go, greg, are you prepared for the next three years for that to be your life? You walking around and people just shouting, Dan Gardner. And he goes, me. Do you think Dan Gardner's prepared?

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, if you get a chance, watch Greg on our show from Friday and the Dan Gardner hunter.

[Chick McGee]

Georgia.

[Christy Lee]

I'm gonna have to do that.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't tell you how it is so funny, but there's no reason is it's so great. He does such a tremendous job. Now, on a completely different note, we were talking about that guy whose name I'm forgetting, the guy that climbed the tower in Taipei or whatever it was. And there's a great interview with him. I forget where it was.

[Christy Lee]

Taiwan, wasn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

I think it was in Taiwan.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's one of the tallest buildings in the world. The guy climbs it free climbs and.

[Chick McGee]

Well, if it's in Dubai, they better hurry.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, shrapnel makes it a little more difficult. We're going to talk to a guy today that is a former professional tower climber.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Because we just had the. We just had one of the bulbs on one of the towers where we are at the radio station. We were wondering what it costs.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And what was it like something a square foot.

[Chick McGee]

Something a foot.

[Josh Arnold]

Not a square foot.

[Tom Griswold]

A vertical foot.

[Josh Arnold]

Vertical foot, yeah, it was something.

[Christy Lee]

$15. It wasn't as much as I thought. $15.

[Tom Griswold]

It was like doing this one would be like 1500 bucks. One of the ones out here. We're going to talk to someone who does that.

[Chick McGee]

That's not enough.

[Christy Lee]

That's what we said.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We're going to find out.

[Chick McGee]

It'd be flat fee, $25,000. If you want me to. To Climb up and change a light? No.

[Tom Griswold]

What happens if you're on the tower that gets hit by lightning?

[Christy Lee]

You get hit by lightning, you're gonna be in trouble.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, that's gotta be tricky.

[Christy Lee]

Unless you're grounded some way.

[Josh Arnold]

Those things hit by lightning? More than we know.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Anything tall like that, they're just constantly being hit by light.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're here, you'll see.

[Chick McGee]

You think Victor Wembanyama gets hit by lightning?

[Josh Arnold]

I think at least seven feet, four times a year.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you ever seen the. Because some of. Some of the towers have. Have guy wires that rather than being freestanding, the ones that look like the Eiffel Tower are freestanding. But the ones that have the wires that go down to the ground. You ever see. Been here and the. You see those balls of electricity go up the wires.

[Josh Arnold]

That's got to be cool.

[Tom Griswold]

You've seen that, right?

[Chick McGee]

I remember when the tower fell down.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, one of them fell down. That was. That was because of the wind. It was a tornado. But yeah, you see the electricity going back up. It's very cool.

[Josh Arnold]

That must be cool.

[Chick McGee]

Is it. Is it guy wire or guide wire?

[Christy Lee]

I always thought it was guide.

[Chick McGee]

And if it's guy wire, I'm. I'm sorry. I'm changing my name from Chick McGee to Guy Wire.

[Josh Arnold]

I like it a lot.

[Chick McGee]

Guy wire and sports.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it guide wire?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

It's a guide wire, right?

[Tom Griswold]

I have no idea. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

I think it might be Guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Huh.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I don't know. Let's. I'll just look it up too.

[Josh Arnold]

The Guy is a guide now.

[Tom Griswold]

We're just.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, this is.

[Chick McGee]

We would be lost without our guide. Guy Wire. How about that?

[Tom Griswold]

There's probably some DJ name.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, Guy, you know what?

[Christy Lee]

Tom's right. They're called guy wires.

[Chick McGee]

Gui.

[Christy Lee]

Gui for guy lines. Guys. These tension galvanized steel cables run from the tower to anchored spots on the ground.

[Chick McGee]

Well, hi. I'm Guy Wire. Sports coming up. Yeah, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, why not? Chick hasn't worked out.

[Christy Lee]

No idea.

[Chick McGee]

It's time to try something else.

[Tom Griswold]

Right now I want to talk about something brand new for the show. Have you looked at your credit card statement lately? What?

[Chick McGee]

Why do you say stuff like that?

[Josh Arnold]

I try not to.

[Tom Griswold]

You're working 40, 50 hours a week just to get groceries and gas up and running. And in your gut and in your

[Chick McGee]

house, sometimes there's more month than money.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Very good. Very good. The credit card companies, they could be charging you over 20% interest for the privilege of leaving a lot on that card. So over 20% interest, that's gonna keep you underwater. I think American Financing is doing something the credit card companies hate. They're actually helping people. They have mortgage rates in the fives. They're showing homeowners how to use their equity to wipe out that high interest debt. The average savings is $800 a month from American Financing. If you start today, you could delay two mortgage payments. Call their salary based mortgage consultants today. You can call them at 866-889-2611. That's 866-889-2611. Or go to American financing.net bobandtom Once again, that's Americanfinancing.net bobandtom and find out all the details. NMLS 182334 this is kind a name I'm going to give you. NMIS consumeraccess.org for more information. APR for rates in the fives start at 5.196% for well qualified Bowers borrowers. Excuse me. Call 866-889-2611 for the details, credit costs and terms or just visit. It's much easier just to go to american financing.net Bob and Tom. Coming up, we have Sporting News. We have more of your letters.

There we go. Watch my dog get shot.

[Justin Scott]

Hi.

[Christy Lee]

Hey.

[Chick McGee]

Hi. There's Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

My mom used to leave us messages on Our. All of our birthdays, my brothers and I. And we always cringed and made fun of her because.

[Chick McGee]

Happy birthday.

[Josh Arnold]

What are you doing? She was like, well, it was 5:30am When I did, and I just wanted to stay quiet. We were like, well, you can't do it.

[Tom Griswold]

That Marilyn Monroe spin. Oh, God, that is very creepy.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that was some dress too she was wearing, huh? That was a hell of a dress.

[Tom Griswold]

How pissed was Jackie?

[Chick McGee]

How about that? Assuming there's Ace Cosby, I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

I want to catch up with something we were talking about a few minutes ago. We got a nice letter from Bakersfield, California. And of course,

[Chick McGee]

Tiger by the tail,

[Josh Arnold]

it's plain to say.

[Tom Griswold]

And I was mentioning Buck Owens, of course, fine songwriter.

[Chick McGee]

And the Buckaroos.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And Buck became even more famous.

[Chick McGee]

The fabulous Don Rich on Hee Hawkins. And my favorite he haw to this day is if you watch it now because they, they, they. I don't know how many they filmed, but they just dropped. You know, they just all put it all, mashed them all together. And they go to Buck and he goes, here's Susan Ray. I. It's just he. He's not laughing at anything, right?

[Josh Arnold]

He's supposed to be laughing at, like the sketch that just ended.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. And you know that. You know that he's.

[Chick McGee]

Grandpa. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He was able to show up for four hours. They filmed the next six months of the show.

[Chick McGee]

Exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

But, yeah, but great songwriter. I was. Pat and I were kind of thinking about the fact that, you know, he. Buck Owens had a song on one of the early Beatles albums that out of nowhere, he must have gotten a check for a billion dollars as the songwriter because they covered one of his tunes. But. This is one of his famous songs. Now, I. I've got the one you asked. Asked about, which is the. The song Out, Out My Back Door.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. Ccr. And they reference Buck Owens.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And the lyric is. I think this is a song about a guy taking acid.

[Josh Arnold]

It sure seems like it. He sees some wild things out. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He goes. He just got home from Illinois Locked the front door oh, boy. Gotta sit down and take a rest on the porch.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Imagination sets in pretty soon. Pretty soon I'm singing doo doo doo Looking out my back door. And then he says that he. Here's what he's seeing. A giant doing cartwheels A statue wearing high heels. Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. So these seem to be visions of some sort. And then a dinosaur Victrola and That's

[Josh Arnold]

listening to Buck Owens.

[Tom Griswold]

Listening to Buck Owens. Here's a little bit of it, but it's. Yeah, a dinosaur Victrola. Listening to Buck Owens. Do, do, do. Looking out my back door.

[Chick McGee]

Listening to buck owens.

[Tom Griswold]

You gotta hand it to him. The near rhyme of Victrola and Buck Owens.

[Josh Arnold]

Not bad.

[Christy Lee]

I never knew that was a dinosaur Victrola.

[Tom Griswold]

I, I never knew that I did, but I, I.

[Josh Arnold]

What do you guys think it is? I've always pictured a big sort of brontosaurus looking thing laying kind of on his back. And his belly is actually a Victrola. And he just sort of of controls it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I think he kind of means like a really old. Like an old.

[Josh Arnold]

The dinosaur.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But the thing is, I think this. I think he was on acid.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, he claims it's just his imagination.

[Chick McGee]

You forget how popular CCR was.

[Tom Griswold]

For a good reason.

[Chick McGee]

They were crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a great argument to be made that I think in one year they released three albums. All of them are perfect.

[Chick McGee]

That cosmos is.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe the Beatles did the same thing. To be that good for in that burst of incredible sweet hitch.

[Chick McGee]

A high count.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, that's great.

[Josh Arnold]

I think the dinosaur's there, guys.

[Christy Lee]

You think the dinosaurs are there?

[Josh Arnold]

We're already talking about giants doing cartwheels. Happy creatures.

[Chick McGee]

Not that it's a really old Victrola.

[Josh Arnold]

No, it's. He means there's a dinosaur with a Victrola.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's like in the Flintstones where the bird puts its beak on the. On the spinning stone.

[Josh Arnold]

I hope so. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

That's one of my favorite. I wish I could have been in the staff writing for the Flintstones. Trying to think of things you could have animals doing. That's so funny. Just absolute classic stuff. In any event, that was our tribute to Bakersfield and the great Buck Owens. He owned a bunch of radio stations.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, he did. I tried to get a job at one of them.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you know?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you're not quite qualified to work. Well, Ms. Jo.

[Chick McGee]

Just last week and

[Tom Griswold]

now. Oh, you got a letter over there.

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Top show. My name is Mike.

[Christy Lee]

Hi, Mike.

[Chick McGee]

I'm from Van Buren, Arkansas.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, the Van Buren Boys.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. 13th President of the United States. If I recall, there are drive through liquor stores on every corner in Van Buren, Arkansas you and I were talking about. Yeah, liquor stores in our. Our home state, Ohio now.

[Tom Griswold]

But can they give you an open drink is the question.

[Chick McGee]

He doesn't say that. But he says they are open 7am to 1am and they even sell Moonshine.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

And without revealing too much, I know that CVS will not sell you liquor before 7am I know that. No matter, no matter how hard, how hard you try, no matter how you are, or I forget which one of

[Tom Griswold]

you mentioned this, but you walked into a cvs, you couldn't find a clerk.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's, that's anybody you talk to.

[Tom Griswold]

Sunday morning I drove to cvs and I had to. I had to. I had purchased something that was defective.

[Chick McGee]

You better not get me in CVS sideways, pal.

[Tom Griswold]

No, so, so I walk in.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

If they want to check the camera. I walk through the entire store, every aisle, looking around. Hello? I don't see anybody.

[Pat Godwin]

Nope.

[Tom Griswold]

So I just walk over to the section where I got the thing that was defective. I took the good one, put it in my bag, took the bad one, stuck it on a different shelf, bought a couple packs of gum and walked out.

[Chick McGee]

And you self checked?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You did not shoplift.

[Tom Griswold]

No, because the one that they sold me was defective.

[Josh Arnold]

Greg Warren says in a brilliant bit about this, you have every right to do what you did.

[Tom Griswold]

But I was happy to walk up to the clerk and go, there was a soul in there. And then as I was leaving, five or six people walked in and I looked back and they were all looking around for somebody. What time of day was when they first opened? Probably eight o' clock on a Sunday.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it happens.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But I had better things to do. But I did buy some watermelon chewing gum. My favorite.

[Chick McGee]

Here's my contention. I think all the CVS's are on some sort of timer lock and they open up rather whether whether anybody's in the, in the, in the store or not.

[Tom Griswold]

I see 8am coming up. We have a guy who climbs towers for a living.

[Christy Lee]

Shouldn't you call them and tell them you put a bad one there so they'll know?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, no, I put it, you know, I put it right by the cash register.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't put a word.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it was.

[Chick McGee]

I, I would have found it hard not to fling it back at the, you know, just throw it and hit the back wall. Were you not irritated in the lease?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I'm sure someone's working hard. They must have been in the back.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, must have been working hard.

[Josh Arnold]

Doing what?

[Tom Griswold]

They need sleeping, they need to have a bell or something.

[Pat Godwin]

But I don't think they can get enough employees.

[Tom Griswold]

And they've cut back on the length of the receipts because there were innumerable jokes about how long the receipts were there.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. They still spit them out pretty good lengths.

[Tom Griswold]

Not like back in the day, you could buy three items and make yourself a mummy costume. Coming up, we have exploding telephones in the news.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, no.

[Tom Griswold]

We have could your phone kill you? We have something very interesting. I was not aware that March 10th is, ladies and gentlemen, National Ranch Dressing Day. It has its own day.

[Chick McGee]

It's about time.

[Tom Griswold]

[Chick McGee]

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

[Christy Lee]

Hi.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, man. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

Hi indeed. There's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Chick.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't, don't, don't come in my back door.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, he's being naughty.

[Chick McGee]

Your back door's locked, is that what you're saying?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Sorry.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, look what I've got over here. Ready then, gardener? Yes, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, you must take, take some time today when you get a moment and watch, watch Greg Warren on our show Friday and tribute to one of his former clients when he was a salesman. It's wonderful and it just certainly a little spin on the name Dan Gardner.

[Chick McGee]

That was pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I, I can't do it as,

[Chick McGee]

not as good as the original though.

[Tom Griswold]

Dan Gardner right from the get go. It's got a twist, whatever you want to call it. Perfect. Now time to move forward here. Are you ready for a little bit of a little bit of sporting news?

[Chick McGee]

Certainly. Let's do that. Tyler Redick became the first driver in NASCAR cup series history to win the first three races of the season. A victory yesterday at the Circuit of America's of course that's the Toyota team co owned by 23, Michael Jordan and Alex Palau.

[Christy Lee]

Alex Palo.

[Chick McGee]

Palo is one in St. Pete. And Nico Echeverrio won the Cognizant Classic where everyone's very aware.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Meltdown by Shane Lowry on the closing stretch of the PGA national there in West Palm and a game between the Detroit Pistons and the Cleveland Cavaliers delayed nearly 20 minutes due to a blaring horn that disrupted the proceedings after a power surge caused the overhead scoreboard to malfunction.

[Josh Arnold]

Would it not go off? Oh, no, that's awful.

[Chick McGee]

A timeout in the third quarter of the Friday game between the House between the the Clippers and the Pistons. The horn sounded to signal the teams to return to the floor and kept horning or sounding or whatever I want to say.

[Josh Arnold]

That's brutal.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. And it sounded like this a lot of time.

[Justin Scott]

And we're gonna check it with George Sedano, find out what's going on with his horn.

[Chick McGee]

George. So, guys, I'm here at the scorers

[Josh Arnold]

table and there was a complete malfunction here. Electric, electrical wise here at the scores table. You see this gentleman here working frantically to try to get everything reset.

[Chick McGee]

The clocks went out, the score went

[Josh Arnold]

out across the building.

[Tom Griswold]

And clearly you hear the people holding their ears.

[Christy Lee]

Yikes. How long was it like that?

[Chick McGee]

20 minutes.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a special kind of torture.

[Pat Godwin]

20 minutes.

[Chick McGee]

Hang on. After 13 minutes, staff at Little Caesar's arena shut down the entire scoreboard and the horn stopped, of course. Loud sarcastic cheers.

[Tom Griswold]

Ironic that. Let's see now. Am I correct in saying. Yeah, the Pistons and the Cavaliers both car related.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Chevy Cavalier.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Your standard pistons and piston engine.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Engine. Are they the only names in the NBA? Curiosity.

[Chick McGee]

Well, there was the Fort Wayne U.

[Christy Lee]

Joint Pacers. There was. There was a Pacer.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, very good.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good, Christy.

[Pat Godwin]

Of course.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Forgot about that.

[Chick McGee]

Everybody forgets about the Fort Wayne U joints.

[Christy Lee]

It's fine.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, whenever we talk, whenever we talk about the Pistons, I have to play my favorite Tim Cavanaugh song.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. The Detroit Pistons, former champs of basketball. I have so many souvenirs, it's hard to list them all.

[Tom Griswold]

I have piston pants.

[Chick McGee]

I have piston shorts.

[Tom Griswold]

I have piston beer mugs. Sometimes people don't even notice.

[Christy Lee]

I have piston ashtrays.

[Tom Griswold]

I have piston shoes.

[Chick McGee]

I have piston basketball.

[Tom Griswold]

When I dribble, they do too, like a little Timmy Cavanaugh. An absolute modern classic. That's, it's, it's poetry, Josh. Every word in the right Place. Not too many words. Is short and to the point. The Detroit Pistons. Thank you very much.

[Chick McGee]

That brings us to the NFL combine. And I don't know how much you watch the combine over the weekend, Tom, but zero. Pretty big news, pretty popular broadcast. That's not true. And none of that's true. But. But you know us and you know me. And there's an offensive lineman from Iowa projected to be selected somewhere, possibly third, fourth round. He's. His name is Jennings Dunker. I think that it's G, E, N, N I, N G S or it could be Kennings Dunker. I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure it's Jennings. He ran a 5.18 40 yard dash, which isn't. And that's standard pretty much for an offensive line. But if I tell you what's not standard, ladies and gentlemen.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my.

[Chick McGee]

His gorgeous mullet. And that thing. Look at the magnificence of that.

[Josh Arnold]

It's one of the finest I've ever seen.

[Chick McGee]

That is business up front. Party, party in the back, man.

[Josh Arnold]

And he also has an accompanying mustache.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, a red mustache.

[Tom Griswold]

And. And arms the size of my thighs. My thighs, maybe.

[Chick McGee]

No, no. Christie's being. His arms are the size of Christie's torso, is what they are.

[Tom Griswold]

Heavily tatted.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. He's a beast.

[Chick McGee]

He. Does he.

[Josh Arnold]

See, I look at that guy and I don't see anything silly about him. Like, I don't. I don't look at that mullet and go, oh, that doesn't work. It totally works on him.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely. Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Who was the. Was Mark Gastonau, the famous. Was that the best mullet in the NFL for a while there.

[Chick McGee]

I think he still has it.

[Christy Lee]

Does he really?

[Chick McGee]

More or less, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Kind of his trademark. There was an era in hockey in which in the 80s, in which every one of them had a mullet.

[Chick McGee]

Six, five, 319 pounds.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow.

[Chick McGee]

They say his frame is a frame built for Sunday.

[Christy Lee]

I like that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's poetic.

[Christy Lee]

When is the draft?

[Chick McGee]

April 7, or something like that.

[Pat Godwin]

Did I ask you a dumb question?

[Chick McGee]

I wish you would. That's all I get.

[Pat Godwin]

But what does combine? What does that mean? Where did that come from? That's a farm.

[Tom Griswold]

No, the combined teams. So each team doesn't have to try out each player.

[Chick McGee]

If you'd like to know, Pat, there used to be. A long time ago in the NFL and I was very young, there was a scouting system called Blesto, and that stood for, I think, Baltimore, the Lions, Eagles, the Steelers. And they got together and they compiled their information and to make more informed choices of college talent. And that muted mutated into the NFL combine. No one really still knows how to pick an NFL player, but this is the closest that they can.

[Tom Griswold]

And the team that has the first draft pick also gets a very nice combine.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. And if you attended the proceedings in Indianapolis, the combines were on display. John Deere, International Harvester, the gorgeous equipment.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, that's a fair question, Pat, because if it's about combining, you would think it'd be called the combine.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Not the combine.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, we've always called it the combine.

[Josh Arnold]

Are you going to the combine? Because that's how you would say that.

[Chick McGee]

Well, if you pronounce it like that,

[Tom Griswold]

it's like, why do they call it the offense, not the offense? These are all great questions. Thank you very much. Coming up, more sports.

[Chick McGee]

If you say so.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good. Right now I'm looking at my car girl. She's right over there. It's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Boy, she came in handy this morning. Check local listings. I had to flip her to snow mode.

[Chick McGee]

You do have a snow button.

[Christy Lee]

I absolutely do on my Hyundai Tucson Hybrid.

[Tom Griswold]

And once again, to clarify, when you hit the snow button, it doesn't start snowing inside your car, which would be a great feature.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

If you kids don't shut up, I'm turning on my snowball.

[Chick McGee]

Don't you touch this button.

[Tom Griswold]

The getaway sales event is happening right now at Hyundai. Check out your local Hyundai dealer. And they call it that because you can get away with the deal. So. Right. It almost feels wrong. Right now you can get great deals on the most popular Hyundai models. Christy Lee, tell me more.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Like the Hyundai Santa Fe or the Santa Fe hybrid or as I mentioned, my favorite car, my Tucson hybrid. Plus there's the Hyundai bold and stylish Elantra, loaded with the latest technology. And if you haven't checked out their all electric cars, the Ioniq 5 or Ioniq 9, you need to do yourself a favor. They are so sleek. They look like something out of Tron to me. Like, this is the future. Get down to your local Hyundai dealer, find out for yourself and get away with a deal you'll love during the Hyundai Getaway sales event. Visit Hyundai USA.com for details. That's Hyundai USA.com and once again, it's

[Tom Griswold]

the Hyundai getaway because you can get away with a great deal right now. Thank you very much, Hyundai. Coming up, we have a little bit of news about astronomy on the way. Kind of a cool thing that's Going to be happening all over the world and all over the non earth portions of our broadcast audience. Also coming up, elephant birth control.

[Chick McGee]

Are you okay?

[Tom Griswold]

That is one big rubber, buddy. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

Square up a new podcast from Andre Berto.

[Chick McGee]

Yo, what's going on, man? It's Andre Berto, two time world champ

[Announcer]

behind the scenes of life as a professional boxer.

[Tom Griswold]

People want to see more.

[Justin Scott]

They want to see who you are as a fighter.

[Chick McGee]

Like I said, the time is now. I really wanted to do that. Sit down from a fighter's perspective.

[Tom Griswold]

Find out what it really means to

[Announcer]

be a fighter inside and outside the ring.

[Chick McGee]

This fight game is such a.

[Tom Griswold]

A roller coaster.

[Chick McGee]

Square up, follow and listen on your favorite platform. Let's go. Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Hello, we're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee. Hi, there's Pat Godwin. Hey, Pat, your air keyboard playing over

[Pat Godwin]

there, it's gotten so much better.

[Chick McGee]

Perhaps you could, you could play the real keyboard at some point.

[Pat Godwin]

Today I have a brand new keyboard too.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

I say we try it right now.

[Chick McGee]

I'm very excited. There's Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Give it a shot here.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom. And now here's Pat.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat and our great engineer Eddie have been working on this keyboard.

[Chick McGee]

Bless Eddie's heart. Check local listening listings.

[Tom Griswold]

They're very good.

[Chick McGee]

Pat made Eddie get the Drill driver out at 5:20am Eastern Daylight Time this morning. Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

Is it one of those keyboards too that has fun sound effects?

[Chick McGee]

It's a little bit funny.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

[Chick McGee]

That's feeling inside.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat looked at me very seriously, put his finger up and said, excuse me, he was playing. I didn't.

[Pat Godwin]

That's got everything. No, it's jam packed with sounds. Got all my favorite accordions.

[Christy Lee]

What was wrong with the other one?

[Pat Godwin]

The other one?

[Josh Arnold]

Dated.

[Chick McGee]

Dated. Very dated.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You couldn't get parts for the other one.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I see.

[Pat Godwin]

It was a 37 keyboard that didn't have.

[Tom Griswold]

That one had the colors on it. Green, blue, purpl, black, chartreuse.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Can I. Can I guess?

[Christy Lee]

Casio makes a fine product.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, hey, listen.

[Pat Godwin]

This is a Casio.

[Chick McGee]

You like the action on that?

[Josh Arnold]

I love it.

[Chick McGee]

I love it.

[Josh Arnold]

There you go.

[Chick McGee]

That's what you said.

[Tom Griswold]

All I'm getting.

[Josh Arnold]

He knows the terms.

[Tom Griswold]

Hot cross buns. My, my 10 year old has the. The recorder.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the first Song that I think universally. Yes, they learn Hot Cross Buns.

[Christy Lee]

The recorder.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, do you have a song you're going to play for. I don't know if I'm in the

[Pat Godwin]

right key for this one, but we had the mullet thing going on all with. If you cut it in the front, it's a mullet. Keep it long and party in the bag. If you have a job, try and tuck it. It's not in fashion. Oh, man, that style has passed.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

What's that?

[Pat Godwin]

Did I read today that the mullet is back? It never went away with the circus. Carny carney. If you cut it in the.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that's very nice. Very nice.

[Chick McGee]

Tribute to Iowa offensive lineman at the combine over the weekend, Jennings Dunker, who has a glorious red mullet. A red mustache.

[Tom Griswold]

I like that guy. He's committed to it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah. That's a.

[Tom Griswold]

Looks like a badass.

[Chick McGee]

He can't ever cut it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that guy's scary looking now. Oh, thank you, Pat. Well, do you have another. Maybe in a few minutes you can play one of your classics that employs the. The keyboard. Now that you're so excited about this new keyboard. Gone.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm gonna be playing it all the time. I've been driving you nuts and I apologize. But I was in the.

[Josh Arnold]

I was.

[Pat Godwin]

In a moment.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, you're in an el.

[Josh Arnold]

I apologize.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I'd apologize for this boring conversation, but I'm busy. Could we move on? What are you getting?

[Chick McGee]

You two lovers want to take it to a room? Huh? You know what time it is, Tom? Ask me what time it is.

[Christy Lee]

What time is it?

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

What time is it?

[Chick McGee]

Stupid world record. Like we just started working together. Thousands of people have helped break the Guinness World record for the largest polar bear dip.

[Tom Griswold]

And I object to this record.

[Christy Lee]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you'll see.

[Chick McGee]

A total of 3,100. A total of 3,134 people from around the world brave the frigid waters of Norway's Heberg beach.

[Josh Arnold]

That gets very cold, doesn't it?

[Chick McGee]

To achieve the record title. It's colder than cold there. Batta Glade a local swimming group. I don't know. Translated to baby, that means bathing pleasure in nor Norwegian talk it to count as an official polar bear dip, participants had to stand in waist deep water.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm with you tomorrow, Val. Invalid over the shoulders.

[Christy Lee]

You have to go all the way up to your neck.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

The highest, the warmest the water can be. Oh, let's start the guesses. What do you Think.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, it's got to be above 32, the warmest.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

That would be very special. The people are. They're frozen from the waist down. They're in ice. That might. That might kill you. I'm not sure how long it would take.

[Christy Lee]

35.

[Chick McGee]

We got a 35, Pat.

[Pat Godwin]

37.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm going 40, 50 degrees. Oh, that's still real cold. I'll still shrink your weenie.

[Tom Griswold]

But they're not underwater, and you have

[Chick McGee]

to stay in there for at least.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what, though?

[Chick McGee]

A minute.

[Josh Arnold]

Pudenda is that taint is. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

More sensitive to man.

[Christy Lee]

Look at that. That's a lot of people. Some of them are up to their neck.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what I'm gonna say? Most, actually. No, not most.

[Tom Griswold]

No. They're all you can be.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah. They're all standing there, aren't they? It's a mess of people, though.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Looks like an island of flesh.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, don't be confused by the way. Polar bear dip. How do I get. It's the same as. What is that? It's the same as buffalo wings. The wings aren't made of buffalo, and they don't. They're not serving dip made of polar bear.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

The dip they're using is made of baby seals.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, I'm. And it's also not like sheep dip.

[Chick McGee]

Why wouldn't you, for a party, put out a bowl of dip and have a polar bear hand?

[Tom Griswold]

That'd be fun.

[Chick McGee]

Enjoy our polar bear dip. It could be ham salad or something, you know. But you tell people it's polar bear.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, just your. So your point is the shrinkage? Because if you're up to your waist.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, man.

[Tom Griswold]

That's gonna.

[Chick McGee]

That's.

[Pat Godwin]

You know, I'm doing the plunge every day.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Down at the gym. Yeah. I'm real proud of you. Because that is a commitment treatment.

[Pat Godwin]

Five minutes up to the next 45 degrees.

[Christy Lee]

45 degrees.

[Josh Arnold]

That's huge. 45 degrees.

[Tom Griswold]

Has anybody ever seized right there on the.

[Pat Godwin]

No, but I think you have to be careful.

[Josh Arnold]

You have to be healthy.

[Christy Lee]

You do with a bunch of people.

[Pat Godwin]

Not really. It's maybe one other person sometimes.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you asked a qualified physician if that's a good idea to do that?

[Pat Godwin]

I have, indeed.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What'd they say?

[Pat Godwin]

I talked to Josh. He said it was okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Have you had an EKG recently, just for the fun of it?

[Pat Godwin]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat, I have no doubt that you talked to your profession or your professional doctor.

[Tom Griswold]

I do.

[Pat Godwin]

To be honest with you. My doctor just left for another. He Left the state again

[Tom Griswold]

for another profession, I believe, as requested by the American Medical Association.

[Pat Godwin]

One doctor quit.

[Chick McGee]

He went back to his first love, small engine repair.

[Christy Lee]

Well, it's almost lawnmower season.

[Tom Griswold]

Did he leave you. Did he leave you a Dear John letter? Pat, it's not you.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm sorry to think it is me.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you think you're the guy that he'd look at his roster of clients for the day and go, oh, God,

[Pat Godwin]

we're at that age where our doctors are retiring now, you know.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Mine retired years ago. I had to find a new one.

[Chick McGee]

It's.

[Christy Lee]

That's hard.

[Josh Arnold]

I know.

[Chick McGee]

Well, life is hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Speaking of hard, coming up, we have.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, tell me about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Elephant birth control in the news.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, elephant. I'm sure getting the condom on is really tough. Don't they have funny phalluses? The elephant?

[Josh Arnold]

What? Corkscrews.

[Christy Lee]

You mean, is that a corkscrew?

[Tom Griswold]

That's a pig.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no, no. Elephants. Units move like their trunk. That's exactly right.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

It's hard to pick things up.

[Tom Griswold]

You mean they're like prehensile tails on a monkey?

[Chick McGee]

Possibly. Yes.

[Christy Lee]

No, I have no idea.

[Chick McGee]

One morning a long time ago, Christy and I stumbled into the Bob and Tom office and there was a video playing on the tv, and it had animals having sex, and there was everything. And they all did it doggy style. And when the elephants came, the trunk and the unit, the unit went.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. It kind of searches for it, doesn't it?

[Chick McGee]

Kind of searches?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Like. Like a divining rod.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, a little bit.

[Chick McGee]

Elephants do it doggy style. Think about it. They don't have that poor fingers back

[Christy Lee]

hurts for a month.

[Tom Griswold]

I believe they call it elephant style.

[Chick McGee]

They can't reach down there and move it around. That would have to have some sort of ability to find.

[Josh Arnold]

Right?

[Tom Griswold]

Could you get Jumbo on the phone?

[Josh Arnold]

Mine kind of can. Right. You guys can. You can kind of flex yours a little bit.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

If you're off by half an inch, you can kind of.

[Chick McGee]

Tell you what. No, no, I'll tell you what. I'm flexing mine right now.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you ever do a little puppet show with yours, Josh?

[Josh Arnold]

Always. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, boy.

[Josh Arnold]

So are you ready to have a great day?

[Tom Griswold]

You want me to get your hat?

[Christy Lee]

Do you guys talk to it like that?

[Chick McGee]

Sure. Yeah,

[Pat Godwin]

sometimes it'd be like a snake.

[Christy Lee]

Wait, wait, wait. So you have a. You don't have a dog voice for it. You have a dick voice when he talks back. Hello, boss.

[Chick McGee]

What's happening?

[Josh Arnold]

Today.

[Pat Godwin]

All right, now, you ready to go inside?

[Josh Arnold]

It's a hell of an act together.

[Tom Griswold]

Last time I did that, I burned.

[Chick McGee]

You know, when I was in like third grade, I heard that joke on the playground. Yeah, funniest thing.

[Josh Arnold]

I made it do push ups until three. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's been so long since I've been able to use it.

[Chick McGee]

It's always the same, you know, he's a little dirty.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that sports?

[Josh Arnold]

Not his fault. The adults around him are just.

[Chick McGee]

Exactly.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Very free. Very, very free.

[Christy Lee]

This story kind of fits in with what we're talking about. A North Carolina man believes he has the world's smallest male member. Oh, Mr. Michael Phillips told TMZ.

[Chick McGee]

Is it possible I could move up? This is exciting.

[Christy Lee]

He's been medically diagnosed with a condition known as micro phallus with a member measuring 38 inches.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, do we know flaccid or erect?

[Christy Lee]

He likened his erect penis to his pinky fingernail. Whoa, ho, ho, ho. 38 year old is said to be sleeping.

[Chick McGee]

All of a sudden you've been struck with such sadness. I can't.

[Tom Griswold]

I've had zits bigger than that.

[Christy Lee]

Ah, to a raise. To raise aware. My nipples.

[Tom Griswold]

Bigger than that.

[Josh Arnold]

Raise awareness. We gotta get this guy a gofundme.

[Chick McGee]

Hang on a second. Hang on a second.

[Tom Griswold]

I heard it.

[Chick McGee]

It got lost.

[Christy Lee]

Well, come on. About microphalluses and to fight the stigma and encourage early medical intervention. What can they do?

[Josh Arnold]

But I'm with you. Early medical intervention. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a pill. There's a pill for that.

[Christy Lee]

Can. There's a pill for that?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's called cyanide.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you would off yourself. Yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Can they stretch it out or what can they do?

[Josh Arnold]

Some sort of implant would have to occur.

[Tom Griswold]

And this guy, this guy in the article, he's asking people to. He's challenging them to see if anyone has a smaller one, which is.

[Chick McGee]

Well, who the hell's gonna say it

[Tom Griswold]

sounds like this guy wants to see a lot of men's small male members. Yikes.

[Christy Lee]

Does he have children?

[Josh Arnold]

Who knows?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

And if so, maybe they had to be sort of in vitro type.

[Christy Lee]

Right?

[Tom Griswold]

I hope he has at least a Corvette.

[Josh Arnold]

What if he. What if just that stereotype. He had like the longest. Tallest Corvette.

[Christy Lee]

On that note.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Poor guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, so it's. That's less. That's. That's less than half an inch.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, 0.38.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, I mean, he said his erection was like his pinky.

[Justin Scott]

Nail.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Nail. Not the pinky.

[Christy Lee]

No. The nail.

[Pat Godwin]

I know. That's crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's.

[Christy Lee]

Wonder what his girth is.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, jeez.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you know, there you go. You'll see. You're thinking pancake. So it's. Well, what I lack in length, I make up for.

[Josh Arnold]

And girth.

[Tom Griswold]

That really wouldn't be very helpful.

[Chick McGee]

That is really depressing.

[Christy Lee]

It really is. I'm sorry, sir.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, man.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, he's raising awareness.

[Christy Lee]

Good for him. I guess.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I mean, I would look into every possible avenue of surgery. Some sort of implant.

[Chick McGee]

I. I think Tom had the lead on this cyanide that I. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Figure something out.

[Pat Godwin]

I think sex is off the table. You can finally get some work done.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, he might be the. It's worth $3 billion.

[Chick McGee]

The erect unit is the size of his pinky fingernail.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that. I mean, that's.

[Chick McGee]

How would you even know?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

Are his testicles regular sized?

[Christy Lee]

We have a lot of questions.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the only.

[Chick McGee]

That's the only thing that would make it okay if there were really tiny testicles too. That would kind of make it fun.

[Christy Lee]

All right, enough of that.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sick of you guys making fun of me.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, we're just.

[Tom Griswold]

But the guy's gone public with it.

[Christy Lee]

I know, sure.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, he's trying to erase the stigma and I get it. That makes sense.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. How's that gonna help?

[Chick McGee]

Well, the guy wants.

[Josh Arnold]

He's like, hey, look, I'm still a dude and I need to live my life, not just worry about it.

[Christy Lee]

I want a date.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. What can we do?

[Tom Griswold]

Is there. Maybe there's women that would be interested in that?

[Christy Lee]

Sure there are.

[Chick McGee]

That's their thing. Really small guy.

[Tom Griswold]

They're hassle to be.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe they just want oral.

[Tom Griswold]

That's all they need now I have a. I'm. This. This will not seem connected until we get to the end. That's all I'm saying. So bear with me. You will see the connection, but it doesn't. It's not apparent at the beginning. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, we now listen to a fine comedian. Well, you'll. I'll let him introduce himself here. Comedian Rick Schreider.

[Chick McGee]

You're talking about your ex wife?

[Tom Griswold]

You'd ever see her anymore? No, no, not. I don't know what she's. The cord is severed.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I know.

[Tom Griswold]

Did she like your comedy? Did she come see you? You do your stand up comedy at all? Yeah, yeah, sure. She enjoyed it.

[Chick McGee]

I guess come to think of it, she wasn't that bad after all. What Was I thinking,

[Tom Griswold]

well, can we? She was not big on approval. This is what I'm getting at in a roundabout way. Make sure you find the right person before you get married. Because the first time I got married, I looked and I looked and I thought I found that person who would tell me those five words every man longs to hear. Get off me. You're heavy. But are you done yet? That's one of us should be enjoying this.

[Josh Arnold]

Of course, my personal favorite.

[Tom Griswold]

When you're inside me, I feel nothing.

[Christy Lee]

I

[Tom Griswold]

tell you this to bring up

[Christy Lee]

this

[Tom Griswold]

little bit of Rick Schrader arcane trivia.

[Josh Arnold]

She said every, every one of those to me in bed at one time.

[Tom Griswold]

I swear to God.

[Christy Lee]

No, she did.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, she did.

[Josh Arnold]

Every single one of those

[Tom Griswold]

six years.

[Josh Arnold]

I.

[Tom Griswold]

What kind of a schmuck am I?

[Christy Lee]

I had to have at one point said, I love this woman. Right?

[Tom Griswold]

Huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't get enough of this. More stress. You remember the word for word? Oh, yeah. When things that catch your attention when you're inside me, I feel I have.

[Josh Arnold]

That is a direct quote because we're working up there. I'm trying, you know,

[Tom Griswold]

I did myself

[Josh Arnold]

that time, you know, I think I'm

[Chick McGee]

on a, on a roll here, you know?

[Tom Griswold]

You know, it's not fair. I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

I shouldn't, you know, women have such a hard time achieving orgasm.

[Tom Griswold]

I. Maybe it's cuz you got a big fat sweaty guy on top. I would break my concentration.

[Chick McGee]

I'm trying, you know.

[Josh Arnold]

Feels very doughboy, you know, I can't feel my legs.

[Tom Griswold]

You're the one, baby. You know, Dear God, let it in. You know, Rick Schrader. A little bit of Rick Schrader arcane trivia. What's coming up in the news, Christy Lee?

[Christy Lee]

Coming up, we have Boner Bears. Chocolate. We'll talk about that. We have sex toys.

[Chick McGee]

Did you say Boner Bears?

[Christy Lee]

I sure did.

[Tom Griswold]

And they're in trouble.

[Christy Lee]

They are in trouble.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

Yep. We have sex toys being hacked and the number one fruit that makes you poop.

[Tom Griswold]

The number one fruit that makes you poop.

[Josh Arnold]

Richard Simmons.

[Tom Griswold]

That's an odd choice, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

That would be a fiber rich diet he would promote.

[Tom Griswold]

So not just a photograph of him, okay?

[Josh Arnold]

No, you want him there encouraging you.

[Tom Griswold]

I see, I see. Well, once again, we'll try to get back on the track. These tracks run through the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios and this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

Want to share a letter or comment? Our email is bobandtomobandtom.com.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee at the News Center. Hello. There's Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And his new organ. It's very exciting. Not though. Not to mention his keyboard is exciting, too.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Chick McGee. We have completed your sports broadcast. Thank you very much. Coming up, we're going to talk with a guy who was a tower climber, used to change the light bulbs on top of radio and TV towers. Wow. I want to find out what that gig is like, but right now we turn to Christy Lee at the Bob and Tom news desk. What's happening?

[Christy Lee]

The Food and Drug Administration has recalled a product that's named Boner Bear's Chocolate. The candy has been found to contain an erectile dysfunction drug, apparently.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my.

[Christy Lee]

The agency said its laboratory analysis confirmed that Boner Bears chocolate bars and Boner Bears chocolate syrup contained sildenafil, which is the active ingredient in the FDA approved drug Viagra.

[Tom Griswold]

Chocolate syrup.

[Christy Lee]

Chocolate syrup.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Do you eat that with nuts?

[Christy Lee]

Add your own nuts, you eat that with tacos.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you.

[Christy Lee]

Officials warned that the undeclared ingredient may interact with nitrates and some prescription drugs which could cause a problem and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. The recalled products were sold on Elixir.com and lockout supplements.com. so be aware, if you're a Boner Bears chocolate laying around with the name

[Tom Griswold]

Boner Bears, they, they have to know

[Christy Lee]

that's what it's for.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, there's. Okay, then we just have just got a picture of it.

[Christy Lee]

Look at the bears. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, wait a minute.

[Josh Arnold]

I tell you what, though. There's no mention of, at least on the front, no mention of it in containing any sort of erectile dysfunction.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that would be because it would be illegal because that would be a prescription medication. Right.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, but even if, even if it were somehow legal, I mean, they would have to market it as such. So that's. Yeah, it's a problem. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I wonder if it's. I never go to Dairy Queen and get the, the. You get a vanilla cone and then they dip it in chocolate.

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

And the chocolate hardens. Yes, that's probably the same thing.

[Christy Lee]

You think this hardens on the.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's not how it works.

[Christy Lee]

I don't think that's how it works.

[Tom Griswold]

I, I don't get that. One of those cones often enough.

[Josh Arnold]

By the way, the dip cone.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, those are great.

[Christy Lee]

You ever get the butterscotch dipped cone one?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, those are good.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, come on.

[Josh Arnold]

Butterscotch and chocolate go together. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

You know, like a chocolate caramel filled chocolate.

[Tom Griswold]

You get a chocolate phone and dip it.

[Christy Lee]

No. Vanilla cone. And they dip it in butterscotch.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, they do.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay. I much prefer.

[Chick McGee]

Or you could get a chocolate ice cream cone.

[Christy Lee]

You get the chocolate sauce.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

It was only a chocolate deal. That's nice. They have different flavors.

[Chick McGee]

Well, sometimes they're out of one butterscotch because it's so popular. Popular.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know about that. So this is called. This is called bone. What is it? Boner Bear.

[Chick McGee]

I think your seniors enjoy the butterscotch.

[Christy Lee]

I wonder why seniors like butterscotch.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

I've always liked butterscotch. Even as a kid.

[Tom Griswold]

I love.

[Josh Arnold]

I've liked Werther since I was a kid.

[Chick McGee]

Butterscotch pudding. Yeah, it's my favorite pudding.

[Tom Griswold]

Werther's got a bad name.

[Josh Arnold]

They do.

[Tom Griswold]

It's time Gen X steps up.

[Josh Arnold]

And they could rebrand those start.

[Tom Griswold]

Starts wearing, like, a Werther's T shirt.

[Chick McGee]

Are you worthy of a Werther's? You guys can use that. Go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's. I'm sorry. It's Boner Bears.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

They have the syrup and the old. The old chocolate bar there.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. By the way, you know that it's. It's the Berenstain Bears.

[Josh Arnold]

I know, man.

[Chick McGee]

This is the Mandela effect thing. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It's not Bernstein.

[Josh Arnold]

I would have sworn there was a time where I would have lost a million dollars thinking it was Berenstein.

[Christy Lee]

Berenstein Bears.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but it's stain, and it always has been. And isn't it wild?

[Chick McGee]

Berenstain.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a glitch in the Matrix.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go. A little bit of actual facts for you today.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

And by the way, if you have any. Whatever it's called Boner Bear Chocolate.

[Pat Godwin]

How expensive is that chocolate? Because the medication itself is extremely expensive.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, Maybe the chocolate is cheaper.

[Pat Godwin]

You want to know how to take those wisely? Would you like to hear a song about it?

[Christy Lee]

I would love it. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

So what they're saying is this has Viagra granted, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Pat Godwin]

This Tinder date has gone horribly wrong. She's sloppy drunk and singing karaoke songs. She looks nothing like her Facebook page and tells me she doesn't usually date men my age.

[Tom Griswold]

Ouch.

[Pat Godwin]

I can't believe I wasted A Viagra on you? I'm out there Than bucks I'm. My balls are blue I'll be up all night with no one to do. I can't believe I wasted a Viagra on you. I popped a pill in sweet anticipation that I was gonna make sweet love to you. Insurance doesn't cover this kind of medication. These flowers were pretty darn expensive, too. Yeah, I can't believe I was. I wasted a Viagra on you. I'm hard as a rock and no rendezvous My best laid plans have fallen through I can't believe I wasted a Viagra on you. Then she said this to me can't believe you wasted a Viagra on me. I only came out tonight Cause dinner was free. I'm a woman in my prime and you up past 63 I can't believe you wasted a Viagra on me. Well, I can't believe I wasted a Viagra on us. Here's money for an Uber. You can take the bus. This date is over. Nothing left to discuss. Can't believe I wasted a Viagra on us.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, thank you very much, Pat Guy. Hey, is your special on.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, God.

[Chick McGee]

Dry bar comedy?

[Pat Godwin]

I'll find out when it's coming out. I don't. I don't know just yet. It takes them a long time. Put these together.

[Tom Griswold]

When did you film it?

[Pat Godwin]

A year ago this week, I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. All right. Any of the jokes dated?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

I have a Monica Lewis hunk.

[Chick McGee]

Once again, for everyone listening Obama jokes. I'd like to tell you that Tom and Pat are best friends. I know it doesn't sound.

[Tom Griswold]

We're just building up the anticipation.

[Christy Lee]

Every day. Pat says don't bring up the dry bar special.

[Chick McGee]

Every day.

[Christy Lee]

Every day.

[Chick McGee]

And Tom. And every day gotten more joy? No, just wondering.

[Pat Godwin]

I keep looking.

[Tom Griswold]

Get up there.

[Pat Godwin]

I send emails. And I'm a bit of a pest lately.

[Tom Griswold]

How about that fdr, huh?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, he's a ramp.

[Christy Lee]

Hey. The sex toy distributor known as Tanga reports a hacker has stolen their customer information in a data breach. The message sent to customers. The company says that an unauthorized party gained access to the professional email account of one of their employees. The hacker was able to see and steal customer names, email addresses and historical email correspondence, which may include order details or customer service inquiries. Tenga is the latest in a long list of sex toy makers, such as. Lovense. Lovense.

[Chick McGee]

Hold it. What's the name of the adult?

[Christy Lee]

Tenga.

[Chick McGee]

Tenga.

[Christy Lee]

L O V E N S E. Lovense. Lovense. How do you say that?

[Josh Arnold]

I'm John Lovin.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you need a dildo? So this is. This place sells sex toys. And what they're saying is if you bought one there, your name is going to be circulating on maybe.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, on the Dark Web or something.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

A Tanga Sounds like a.

[Christy Lee]

Sounds like a car to me.

[Tom Griswold]

It sounds like a place to go to learn Spanish.

[Christy Lee]

Tanga. Yes, I see the Porsche. Tanga.

[Josh Arnold]

I wanted to order a lady something from Tanga, but she had to go on the website the exact same time as me because apparently it takes two to Tanga.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you. That's.

[Josh Arnold]

There's no reason that Chicken Tom should be standing.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm gonna stand too, because I'm not. I couldn't tell the way. The way. The hesitancy of your delivery was unnecessary because the punchline cometh, and it was great.

[Christy Lee]

I thought you were actually telling a story. I fell for it.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, I think there are many listeners who still think I just told the story.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's like the. It's like the nuclear code keys. You've got to switch it at the same time. So if you want to order from Tenga, you've both got to be online.

[Josh Arnold]

I had to approve what I ordered.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, I've had that with my. On occasion.

[Josh Arnold]

It takes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, baby, get in the line. It takes two to Tenga.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

So if you recently bought a. Some kind of extravagant dildo, your name might be on the Dark Web.

[Christy Lee]

Doesn't have to be extravagant. It could be just a dildo.

[Josh Arnold]

Wouldn't make me nervous. But I feel like had you purchased them, you would be nervous.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you're like, oh, my God, they're gonna find out.

[Josh Arnold]

They can now publish what I purchased.

[Christy Lee]

It's the Tenga files. Tom's on it.

[Tom Griswold]

He got the. The only Ash prober with a camera. I can't believe it.

[Chick McGee]

We got to do something. Tenga and Jenga, too, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you know, building.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, go ahead. No, I got nothing. I'm just. I'm in awe.

[Josh Arnold]

There's something about them not taking a credit card and only taking paper money. So there's a Tanga and Cash joke there.

[Justin Scott]

Oh,

[Chick McGee]

Tango and Cash.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's really good. That's so obscure.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

One of Sylvester Stallone's is that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. And Kurt Russell.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, one of their lesser films, Tanga. I thought they said Jenga. Boy, does my ass hurt.

[Chick McGee]

We have a last minute. Dear Bob and Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Go ahead, go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

Email from Griffith. That's like Andy Griffith, only that's his first name.

[Tom Griswold]

Griffith.

[Chick McGee]

I tried Josh's I don't kiss on the first date technique on Thursday night.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, quick reminder. I would on a first date. I would very early on just go. Just so you know, I don't kiss on a first date. And quite often that led to me kissing on a first.

[Christy Lee]

Or were they kissing you?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So they. In other words, they're going, I will. I will meet this gem.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

I tried Josh's I don't kiss on the first date technique on Thursday night.

[Tom Griswold]

Night.

[Chick McGee]

All bold print. Worked like a charm.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, now, Pat, you were famous for saying I don't pay in the first date. Did that ever work?

[Chick McGee]

No, that never seemed to work.

[Pat Godwin]

You know, I don't pay on any dates.

[Chick McGee]

You. You still remember Nick Griffin's story to us? He was dating on one of the apps and he said he decided that every first date he was going to kiss the woman at the end of the day.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And he famously, on a Sunday morning,

[Chick McGee]

in a Sunday morning, outside a car coffee place, they're making out like the plane's going down. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Coffee breath in the park,

[Christy Lee]

stranger.

[Tom Griswold]

I think I have. I think I may be able to out obscure your Tanga joke.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, please, Pat. I'm ready.

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, Tanga is the sex toy store.

[Christy Lee]

Tanga.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And they've. They've been breached.

[Christy Lee]

They've been hacked. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember that Bob Dylan saw Tanga up in brown.

[Chick McGee]

Up and brown.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the story of the hurricane. Wait a minute. It's the wrong. But we are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

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

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. First day back on the air, brand new month. Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit. Forgotten all about it.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

I apologize. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Chick.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. Hello. I am Chick McGee. And Tom is looking at something intently.

[Tom Griswold]

A letter.

[Chick McGee]

I see.

[Tom Griswold]

I would not read that. Read this. Ordinarily, but since Christy brought it.

[Chick McGee]

Up. Up.

[Christy Lee]

My fault.

[Tom Griswold]

I feel I. It's okay to read it.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, so you're asking us not to blame.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't blame me.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Earlier in the show, we were discussing a fellow who has gone public with the fact that he suffers from something called micro phallus.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

His male members, extraordinarily small, described as the size of his. What was it? Pinky fingernail.

[Christy Lee]

And that's erect.

[Chick McGee]

Erect, yes, erect.

[Christy Lee]

It's less than 38 inches is what he says it is.

[Tom Griswold]

38. So it's less than half an inch, right? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Yikes.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This comes to us from Tony. Tony, I've listened to your show for more than 30 years.

[Chick McGee]

Uhhuh.

[Tom Griswold]

Christie mentioned her nipples on the show today. Oh, here we care to re.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, well, he said that erect it was not the size of his what? Pinky fingernail. And I go, my nipples are that big.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, no need to elaborate. He goes, there was a show many years ago in which you created a recipe called Christie Nips.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yes. That's very famous.

[Tom Griswold]

And you came up with snacks that were that size. Do you remember how that went, Christy?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it was something like a Ritz cracker, ironically.

[Tom Griswold]

Sorry.

[Christy Lee]

With some kind of cheese spread and then a little tiny smoky thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I would not approve of such an activity.

[Chick McGee]

I believe they're called little. Yeah, well, we talked about those little smokies. We.

[Christy Lee]

Because we. Remember, we used the ratchet set, and

[Chick McGee]

we were measuring, and we decided three.

[Christy Lee]

Eight, I think it was.

[Chick McGee]

Or was it metric?

[Christy Lee]

I don't remember.

[Tom Griswold]

I forgot all of this, fortunately. That's right. You did get off the ratchet set.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we got the ratchet.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you for the letter, Tony. We will not be recreating that recipe.

[Chick McGee]

A lot of guys did. A lot of guys wanted to know what the size of and what they look like.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. These are different times. That would be completely inappropriate. However, we will now turn back to Christy.

[Chick McGee]

At you like a big nipple.

[Tom Griswold]

Bob and Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I'm a less is more man.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Christy Lee]

And I'm talking about this nipple part, not the areola part.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Josh Arnold]

In fact, my ideal boobs are totally nippleless. I just like the round. The. The flesh round. I. I want. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Is that right?

[Josh Arnold]

If there's a woman out there with no nipples, I'm interested.

[Chick McGee]

See, I like one. You can hang your hat on him. That's what I like.

[Josh Arnold]

I want. I know. I. I apparently imprinted on a Barbie,

[Tom Griswold]

and I understand that you're pretty. Pretty close to having your 500th woman. So that will be the. The Indian nipples 500. You know,

[Chick McGee]

the last thing we want to do is make this sort of thing like a competition, okay. And I think we have stupidest punchlines. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You're welcome.

[Josh Arnold]

We are rewarding.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

It takes two to tanga. Come on. We're better than that.

[Tom Griswold]

Brilliant.

[Christy Lee]

No, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

That doesn't get any better than that. Why don't we do an early edition of Today in History? Let's see. Oh, happy birthday.

[Chick McGee]

March 2, number two.

[Christy Lee]

Happy birthday. To whom?

[Tom Griswold]

Sam Houston, the first president of the Republic of Texas, lived in Dallas.

[Josh Arnold]

Quite odd.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now, this one is interesting because if you want to get technical, he should be called Dr. Saus. No, I'm sorry. No, that's wrong. So sorry. Technically, it's Dr. Seuss.

[Chick McGee]

Sois.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Dr. Seuss.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if that what you're saying.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I looked this up because I knew that it really wasn't Seuss. His real name. His real middle name was Seuss, spelled S, E, U, S, S. And after he became. But he just gave up because people kept saying Dr. Seuss. So we just let that fly. But his colleagues from. I think he went to Cornell, made a big deal out of it.

[Chick McGee]

But his last name is Geisel or something.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Theodore Sois geisel. Born in 1904. I also, when I did this deep dive, you know what I found out, Josh?

[Josh Arnold]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

He was not an actual physician.

[Josh Arnold]

Not at all.

[Tom Griswold]

No. And you know who else?

[Josh Arnold]

Who?

[Tom Griswold]

Dr. Dre.

[Christy Lee]

He's not a physician.

[Tom Griswold]

Not a physician. This is a scandal.

[Josh Arnold]

Not a. A credit of medical school. No.

[Chick McGee]

What about.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe he has a Ph.D. you don't know?

[Chick McGee]

What about Julius Irving?

[Tom Griswold]

Dr. J. Oh, he's a physician.

[Chick McGee]

That's what I thought. Yeah. He's a podiatrist. Yeah. I thought I was right on that. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Happy birthday. 1917. Desi Arnaz.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God. The original one, like, not the junior he had.

[Tom Griswold]

Lucille Ball invented the three camera, actually. Live sitcom.

[Chick McGee]

Actually, I think Desi had more to do with it than Lucy actually realized.

[Christy Lee]

Very funny.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, by the way, speaking of Dr. J, there's a great documentary on prime called Soul Power. Four episodes about the aba.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, cool.

[Chick McGee]

Very good.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I gotta check that out. 1931. Mikhail Gorbachev. Happy birthday.

[Chick McGee]

I thought you were gonna say something about Mikhail's Navy.

[Christy Lee]

I did, too.

[Josh Arnold]

Remember when Lieutenant Frank Drebin took his handkerchief and washed that birthmark right off of Gorbachev? Said he looked at the camera and goes, I knew.

[Tom Griswold]

Happy birthday. One of my favorite. Lou Reed. Born on this date in 1942.

[Christy Lee]

I have a friend whose dog's name's Lou Reed.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I love that.

[Christy Lee]

Isn't that great? I love that name.

[Chick McGee]

How long has it been since he had a job?

[Josh Arnold]

Waiting for my walk. No, no, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm waiting for my walk. A little bit of waiting for my man, maybe. What would it be instead of heroin?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy.

[Tom Griswold]

Any dog treats? No.

[Chick McGee]

See, we're. We're pitiful.

[Josh Arnold]

I love Lou Reed, but I heard. I recently read that he was a terrible interview. Is that. Do you guys.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. We spoke and he was off.

[Josh Arnold]

Got you.

[Chick McGee]

Monotone. But it was a real, like, not

[Josh Arnold]

easy to talk to.

[Chick McGee]

But in Lou's response, it was. What do I want to say in his defense? His defense? He was so. So uninterested.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Happy birthday, Daniel Craig.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, James Bond.

[Tom Griswold]

Not anymore.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I mean,

[Chick McGee]

Benoit blanc.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Once you're a Bond, you're always a Bond.

[Tom Griswold]

Come on, let's see. Ben Roethlisberger,

[Christy Lee]

not a Bond. You're right. He's a football player. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

I suppose the Wahlbergs have already done. Since they've done Wahlbergers. Roethlisberger is not going to take off.

[Pat Godwin]

Give it a shot if you want.

[Tom Griswold]

How about this one? Napoleon Bonaparte, appointed commander in chief of the French army.

[Chick McGee]

How'd that work out?

[Tom Griswold]

1796.

[Josh Arnold]

They did all right for a while. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Did a hell of a job.

[Tom Griswold]

Why is it always commander and chief? That's kind of redundant.

[Chick McGee]

I thought it was commander in chief.

[Josh Arnold]

It is for the president, isn't it? Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's commander in chief.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, I am. Yeah. And there's a lot of hyphens in there.

[Tom Griswold]

Still, it seems redundant,

[Chick McGee]

huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Are you a commander?

[Chick McGee]

I have a question. Is there any way I can get out of this conversation?

[Tom Griswold]

That wouldn't work in the NFL.

[Chick McGee]

No, you're darn right.

[Tom Griswold]

With the Washington commander in Chiefs. That'd be super confusing. There's already a team. Never mind. Okay, okay. 1933. What movie premiered at Radio City Music hall?

[Chick McGee]

What year?

[Christy Lee]

1933.

[Tom Griswold]

This is a quiz. This movie premiered at Radio City Music hall in New York City. The climatic scene of the movie takes place only a few miles away.

[Josh Arnold]

I know. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good, Christie. King Kong.

[Josh Arnold]

That thing holds up.

[Chick McGee]

Is it King Kong? Yeah. I thought it was Ding Dong.

[Josh Arnold]

There might be a joke there somewhere, but I don't know. The old giants. I asked for ping pong balls. Isn't that what we are?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's a classic.

[Chick McGee]

Classic wizard of Oz. That all the farmhand they were. It was a dream.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, Jake, you'll get this one. 1935, the premiere of the cartoon entitled I Haven't Got a Hat starring.

[Chick McGee]

You know my rule about the word hat.

[Tom Griswold]

A punchline starring Porky Pig.

[Christy Lee]

I haven't got a Hat.

[Josh Arnold]

There was a while where he wore a sailor's hat. Isn't there some Where Porky Pig wore.

[Chick McGee]

So that was Porky's debut.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Was called I haven't got. Got a pair of pants. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You know, being a stutterer as a child, I thought. And Porky Pig was. I thought he was my hero. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, very funny. Very funny.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he wore a beanie every now and again kind of thing.

[Chick McGee]

A sassy beret. You think?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, he's got all kinds of hats.

[Tom Griswold]

It wasn't a. Maybe it was a yamaka. Because he heard about the proscription on eating pork.

[Josh Arnold]

You can't enjoy me.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. That's all fol.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I'll be safe here.

[Tom Griswold]

Here's a. Here's a great crime story. In 1978, grave robbers. Grave robbers stole the corpse of Charlie Chaplin.

[Christy Lee]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

They did. They didn't get away with it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh. Oh, I thought you were going to say they still have it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, but who's going to go? I mean, come on.

[Josh Arnold]

Why did they do that?

[Christy Lee]

Why did they do that?

[Pat Godwin]

Probably made him walk like that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, exactly like they did the potato thing the chaplain did with his chaplain's legs.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Did they think that he had something buried in there?

[Tom Griswold]

No. They want. They wanted. They demanded money from his. His widow, and she said no. What are they gonna do? Yeah. Kill him. He's already dead.

[Chick McGee]

You know, that's a bad crime all the way around.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you're right.

[Tom Griswold]

They ended up.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, she said, keep him. I'm a Buster Keaton fan.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. They. They got the fellows and got the body back, and then they buried him with a giant concrete slab so the next. So some other idiot couldn't do it. Well, thank you very much. Now, what's coming up in the world of news, Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Coming up, what car habits drive you

[Josh Arnold]

crazy when there are other cars on the road? Yeah, that kind of bothers me.

[Tom Griswold]

Backseat driving?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, actually, I mean, your passenger. If you have a passenger in your car, what habits do they have that drive you crazy?

[Chick McGee]

They reach up and open their glove box for no reason.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I'm sorry. I do that when I'm in another car. I'm sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

When they don't give me H.J. that's annoying.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Chick McGee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And his brand new Oregon.

[Pat Godwin]

A lot going on over here.

[Christy Lee]

Is that a new shirt? That's a nice jacket thing. Whatever.

[Pat Godwin]

You're wearing shacket, right?

[Chick McGee]

It is a shacket.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's nice.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you. Love the shacket. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

I'm being stared at. What Daggers from Tom right now. There's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Chick McGee. What's your, what's your Beef with shacket Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Do haberdashers refer to that as a shacket?

[Chick McGee]

Possibly. I bet Sid would say shacket as well.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? You think Sid would say that?

[Chick McGee]

Sid Mashburn. He has a nice product.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the shacket. Yep. Okay. All right, now we have Christy Lee at her post. Coming up, we're going to talk with Mr. Justin Scott, a guy who made a living climbing radio towers and changing light bulbs, et cetera, et cetera.

[Christy Lee]

I bet you retire young from that job.

[Tom Griswold]

No kidding, man.

[Chick McGee]

All right, Is this a first part of our new series here on the bottom of time? Fools in the workforce. Is that what we're doing?

[Tom Griswold]

It's brave people in the work.

[Chick McGee]

Brave. We're gonna come brave?

[Tom Griswold]

I think so. All right, well, Christie's brave coming in here every day.

[Chick McGee]

Can you imagine? I know a client, the tower, and he's hooked with a safety. Slipping and flying.

[Christy Lee]

He'd be.

[Chick McGee]

He hang there.

[Christy Lee]

He had to have done that.

[Josh Arnold]

How would you get.

[Chick McGee]

How would you get yourself down?

[Tom Griswold]

We're gonna find out.

[Christy Lee]

Find out all those questions.

[Chick McGee]

Hell, what an idiot.

[Christy Lee]

Write that down.

[Tom Griswold]

You see his phone dropping to the ground?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, hey. Clang.

[Josh Arnold]

I didn't tell anybody I was doing this.

[Tom Griswold]

This remote location.

[Christy Lee]

Let's face it, that's not the first question you're gonna ask him.

[Chick McGee]

I had to cut my arm off to. Oh, no, that's the other.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I'll let you ask him.

[Christy Lee]

I'm not asking.

[Pat Godwin]

We know what you're gonna ask.

[Christy Lee]

You're gonna ask him. Speaking of that, dietitians say the fruit with the most laxative like effect is. Anyone want to guess?

[Josh Arnold]

Avocado.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

Kiwi.

[Josh Arnold]

Kiwi.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry, what was the question?

[Christy Lee]

Dietitian Kelsey Russell Murray told the Internet magazine Eating well that kiwi is packed with fiber that can help your bowels stay regular.

[Josh Arnold]

When a woman hyphenated name, don't you immediately go difficult? I can't help it.

[Chick McGee]

I think that's where the big H screwed the pooch. Once she started to put Rodham in there, it was not turn out the lights. Well, then I had somebody killed. But still, I mean, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

He raised a good point.

[Christy Lee]

Kiwi also contains an enzyme called actin, which helps break down protein and may have a laxative effect.

[Chick McGee]

You mean like I slipped on the ice? I had an actin.

[Tom Griswold]

This has got to be causing problems in the prune community.

[Josh Arnold]

They were known for it, Right?

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I'd much rather eat prunes than kiwi.

[Christy Lee]

What's wrong?

[Josh Arnold]

With you. That's interesting.

[Christy Lee]

I love kiwis.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

Have you ever had a kiwi? Let's be honest.

[Tom Griswold]

Our kiwis.

[Chick McGee]

Incredible. Very sexual.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that right?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

I've always heard that this cuz prunes aren't.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, they're poopy. Would make you poopy.

[Christy Lee]

They like poop. That's why.

[Chick McGee]

Ever see a prune up close? It's disgusting.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember the famous commercial about the pitted.

[Chick McGee]

Today the pits, tomorrow the wrinkles. Suneet marches on.

[Josh Arnold]

Tom, do you prefer stewed prunes?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, those aren't bad.

[Chick McGee]

Why would they. I'm sorry.

[Christy Lee]

Old men.

[Chick McGee]

Grandpa wants to add. Yeah. Yes. Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat. Those are pretty delicious.

[Tom Griswold]

This says. This is interesting. Dragon fruit has the most fiber.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

And there was a tik tock challenge in which people would eat two dragon fruit and then time it to see how long it came before took before.

[Chick McGee]

I have to go to the bathroom.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's.

[Christy Lee]

Look at you.

[Tom Griswold]

You've got to be really bored.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah man.

[Chick McGee]

And what is the joke of dragonfruit and testicles or dragon balls?

[Josh Arnold]

Remember?

[Chick McGee]

You remember this? I had too much dragon fruit for my balls.

[Tom Griswold]

Dragon. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

I.

[Tom Griswold]

This is.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't. I don't know that I've had dragon fruit. Have you guys?

[Christy Lee]

I have not.

[Tom Griswold]

I have not.

[Chick McGee]

Did you ever find.

[Christy Lee]

Seen it in the store and thought what do you do with that?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Today's the anniversary of the debut of the. The original movie King Kong.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you find it unrealistic that he was on top of the Empire State Building and not heaving his own poop?

[Josh Arnold]

God, Tom, I wasn't sure.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, come on.

[Chick McGee]

You know when they made the remake they didn't address that either.

[Josh Arnold]

If gorillas do that. If it was a. If they were a superior monkey.

[Chick McGee]

Is it true that they thought. They thought gorillas were make believe until like 1907? Isn't that right? What? Something like that? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Same with back in the day. Didn't they thought elephants were mythical?

[Chick McGee]

Elephant and pandas were like mythical.

[Tom Griswold]

They didn't think they can you imagine in.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

1850 and all of a sudden an elephant walks by.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that would be.

[Tom Griswold]

And you're. And you're in Kansas. I don't see one of these before.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, circus is in town. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I. I don't know. Well, let's move forward here.

[Josh Arnold]

What else is going on?

[Christy Lee]

Speaking of food, the Great Wolf Lodge is announced it will soon be offering a.

[Josh Arnold]

A dry elevator. Go to one of those places and Try to find a dry elevator.

[Christy Lee]

Well, it's an indoor water.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm not complaining. I think it's a fun place.

[Chick McGee]

I'm just saying it sounds like you're complaining.

[Josh Arnold]

Every. A little bit. Every. Every elevator. Because it's just.

[Chick McGee]

With algae.

[Josh Arnold]

A family of six standing there dripping as they go up to their room.

[Chick McGee]

I've never heard of these places. Oh, yeah? Never heard of them.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, they're great, huh? We used to go there a lot with the kids. There's one at Cedar Point.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, my kids just went there, I don't know, three weeks, weeks ago.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really? You didn't go with them?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Why would they name a water park after a terrestrial animal?

[Christy Lee]

That's a great question.

[Tom Griswold]

Other exciting things. So what are they doing there?

[Christy Lee]

They're gonna offer a ranch dressing milkshake.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, hang on, let her talk.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

New shake is included among the limited time food items that will be available during the great.

[Tom Griswold]

The kids that drink those are wearing T shirts when they swim, there's no doubt.

[Christy Lee]

During the Great Wolf Lodge Spring Splash Fest.

[Josh Arnold]

Man, this is awful.

[Christy Lee]

Great Wolf Lodge describes the beverage as a sweet and tangy vanilla ranch shake. Wait, it gets better. Topped with fried chicken, carrots and celery.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, come on.

[Christy Lee]

There's one finished with a sweet and salty lime rim and whipped cream.

[Tom Griswold]

So it looks kind of like one of those exotic Bloody Marys that has all the stuff in them, except it's. What is that? What is that, a tater tot?

[Josh Arnold]

You said chicken. Chicken nugget.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, a chicken nugget. Even funnier.

[Chick McGee]

That's your nug. Yep.

[Christy Lee]

The milkshakes release coincides with the arrival of National Ranch Dressing day coming up March 10th.

[Tom Griswold]

The ranch dressing milkshake.

[Chick McGee]

And by the way, let's get a jump on this ranch dressing invented in the early 1950s by Nebraska born plumber turned cowboy. Oh, Steve Henson. While working in Alaska. He perfected the buttermilk while working in

[Josh Arnold]

Alaska late one night.

[Chick McGee]

Buttermilk based herb dressing. Herb dressing. And later in 1954, moved to California with his wife, Gail. Did I say 60s? I meant 50s. To open Hidden Valley Ranch. They opened it in 1954.

[Christy Lee]

They're the ones.

[Chick McGee]

They're the ones.

[Josh Arnold]

Can you visit Hidden Valley Ranch?

[Chick McGee]

And then I. I think we all love ranch dressing.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that correct?

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it has its place. Oh, yeah, that's right. Christy's not a fan.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

They sold Hidden Valley Ranch to Clorox in 1972.

[Tom Griswold]

That why it's white.

[Chick McGee]

And yes, somebody Touch them.

[Tom Griswold]

Touch a bleach for.

[Chick McGee]

For $8 million in 1970. And now Hidden Valley Ranch worth almost $9 million. Yeah. Probably billions.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

So I'm. So it's. Is there ice cream in it or

[Josh Arnold]

is it just crispy? I mean, it is a milkshake.

[Christy Lee]

Didn't say, but I would assume vanilla. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Can't be very.

[Chick McGee]

Is it the most popular salad dressing?

[Josh Arnold]

I bet it is.

[Christy Lee]

I bet it is.

[Chick McGee]

Is.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

No. What about Willie?

[Tom Griswold]

Lives about an hour from one of the great wolf lodges. We could maybe have him do a remote.

[Chick McGee]

When they maybe do a field.

[Tom Griswold]

Field report trying one of the milkshakes.

[Christy Lee]

So you would not try this?

[Josh Arnold]

No. Well, I might have a sip just to say I did, but I wouldn't order it.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

I guess Culver's is doing a cream of mushroom concrete mixer just to respond on to this.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, man.

[Pat Godwin]

I love ranch dressing more than all of you.

[Christy Lee]

You do?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you have a song about it? I do. Oh.

[Pat Godwin]

Little intro.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Pat Godwin]

Dear ranch dressing, I love you so I wrote this letter I know that you're bad for me but everything dipped in you tastes better. Broccoli, better. Carrots, much better. Dry salads, practically inedible but with you on top, it's incredible. Celery would be healthy and depressing without you Ranch dressing. Ranch ranch dressing. Your tasty ranch dressing straight from the bottle. You ought to try it. I miss you on a pizza slice those two days in May when I'm on a diet. Wings better I lick it off my sweater. My jealous girlfriend Sally can't compete with your hidden valley that creamy goodness I savor Even on kale, you enhance the flavor so my love for you I'm confessing Dear ranch dressing.

[Christy Lee]

Ah.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. Christy.

[Josh Arnold]

Have you ever had a Caesar salad?

[Christy Lee]

No. Yeah, I have, but without the dressing.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it's not a Caesar salad.

[Tom Griswold]

What

[Chick McGee]

closer were you smacking in the face?

[Christy Lee]

I do I get a Caesar salad without the dress?

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know, because the dressing really does make the Caesar salad. It's all in the dressing there.

[Christy Lee]

Well, it's. It can be really good with, you know, some nice shaved parmesan, you know where that's from? Some croutons.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go. Somewhere in Cleveland.

[Tom Griswold]

Mexico.

[Josh Arnold]

Mexico invented the Caesar salad.

[Tom Griswold]

Yep. Guy. You know what the guy's name was?

[Christy Lee]

Caesar.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep.

[Pat Godwin]

Cesar.

[Tom Griswold]

So it should be a Cesar salad.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, is that true?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Are you messing with me?

[Tom Griswold]

I'll have to look it up. I. I'm buying that from memory. I Think that's what it was.

[Christy Lee]

Can a salad have too much dressing?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

You ruin it.

[Christy Lee]

That's why I have to get it on the side. I have to get dressing on the side.

[Chick McGee]

You cannot have now are. You never have to.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you the one that. You take your fork and.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I do that.

[Tom Griswold]

Touch the dressing. Dressing. Then to take a piece of lettuce when you order.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll do that every now and again.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? French on the side?

[Christy Lee]

I do so on the side.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Well, on a different note, in case you missed that, there was a sort of a revelatory piece of comedy from Josh this morning. Oh, involving, is it? Was it Tenga?

[Christy Lee]

Tenga, which is a sex toy company, was hacked.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a sex toy company. They were hacked. So they had to tell all the people that had bought stuff from them that your name and address and phone number, whatever, it's. It's out there. And so we were talking about the. The Tanga company, and Josh opined a couple of very fine jokes, one of them involving some movie stars and a movie they were in. Do you recall what the joke was?

[Josh Arnold]

They do not. That website does not take credit cards. You have to send them bills. You have to send them paper money.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

It's a Tanga and cash.

[Tom Griswold]

Tanga and cash. Something along those lines, referencing a. A semi obscure.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know why. I liked it more before.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well. Yeah, well, when one starts to dissect.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Gossamer. That's true. Yeah. You can't catch a moment like that. I have.

[Josh Arnold]

Let's see.

[Tom Griswold]

This is from. From Jonathan, fan of Tango and Cash.

[Josh Arnold]

I am too. Honestly.

[Tom Griswold]

He goes. I was driving and my car broke down and I had to wait inside a sex toy shop. Sure you did, because it was snowing and it was freezing outside. I went inside the sex toy shop. I was browsing around. I came across a very large dildo.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you're not supposed to do that

[Christy Lee]

until you buy it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, don't come across anything until you buy it.

[Tom Griswold]

I came across a very large dildo with a picture of Sylvester Stallone on it. It was called the Rambone. No, I. I don't think it was properly licensed.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Jonathan.

[Josh Arnold]

The John Rambo man.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Thank you very much. I enjoyed Tenga and Cash.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I like it, too.

[Tom Griswold]

And it. And the simultaneous calling with your girlfriend because it takes two to tango. Also stellar work. I will always remember where I was when I heard that. Now, what's coming up in the news, Christy Lee?

[Christy Lee]

We have a lunar eclipse Coming up, ladies and gentlemen. And we have an exploding phone in the news.

[Josh Arnold]

Should we have led with that? Are our phones gonna blow up?

[Tom Griswold]

Our.

[Josh Arnold]

Wesley, we're.

[Chick McGee]

You got a story like that, you should tell us first.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And is this. Is the moon thing tonight?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's Tuesday morning. So Monday night into Tuesday morning.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. And it's a.

[Chick McGee]

You get to midnight. I. I get thrown.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I know.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a lunar eclipse, right?

[Christy Lee]

Correct.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Okay, we'll get to that coming up. Right now, I want to remind you about something that's a terrific gift even for yourself. It's the aura frame. A U R A. It's a picture frame. I love the thing, but it's electronic. And right now I'm looking at this picture of Josh as a picture of Pat. It rotates through these photographs and is electronic and videos. There's a picture of me in the original studio here in this building,

[Chick McGee]

1937.

[Tom Griswold]

I can tell because black and white behind me. Behind me are what they used to call carts with.

[Chick McGee]

And I believe to your. To your. Right behind you was the helium tank.

[Tom Griswold]

A huge tank of helium. Helium. The aura frame. You can preload it and you can add to it whenever you want. You can be in a different state and add. Say you get one for your mom. You can send her pictures every morning. She can wake up, go out, walk out to her desk and there's a picture of Jeff Oskay in a hot tub or me in a cowboy hat.

[Chick McGee]

We should do one day a week helium sports. We should bring that back. And I know you had a headache, but I'd be willing to see if it would cause a headache. I don't think it would me.

[Tom Griswold]

We would inhale helium and then talk real funny. Yeah. Or I could just say I took helium. They were doing that on Saturday night on cnn. I thought it was inappropriate.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it would have been inappropriate.

[Chick McGee]

Saturday night, about 3 or 4 in the morning. Is that when they were doing it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the aura. The aura frame. These are great. I love this. As soon as we started talking about them, I ended up going out and getting one. It's been named number one by Wirecutter. You can share your photos and videos. As I said, it's the perfect gift every time. And just get one by visiting auraframes.com It's a U R.

[Tom Griswold]

Blessing from me.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom show. In the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, there's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi there.

[Chick McGee]

Ace Cosby's here.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

I'm Chick and hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

We were just talking about ranch drop dressing and there's a. I didn't. There is an official ranch dressing day.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. March 10th.

[Tom Griswold]

March 10th. A little tribute. And we've had stories about ranch dressing. There's a place that had a ranch dressing fountain, a big one. I guess they that's kind of common now at weddings and stuff.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Instead of instead of a chocolate fountain, you have a ranch dressing?

[Christy Lee]

I've never seen that.

[Tom Griswold]

Does anybody have a salad bar anymore? We were to trying, trying to determine. Oh, are there any restaurants that have a salad bar anymore?

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, your Golden Corral. They've still got one. I don't know about Ruby Tuesdays.

[Chick McGee]

I thought it was coming. It was making a big comeback recently, the salad bar in general.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought, did you know this for those of you that are interested in modern slash contemporary art, that it was on a trip to a salad bar bar that Jackson Pollock.

[Christy Lee]

I knew this was.

[Tom Griswold]

He got to the end of the salad bar and someone had put the Thousand island ladle in the ranch. And he went, oh, my God.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, that's not bad.

[Tom Griswold]

He rushed home, smoked a couple filterless cigarettes and began work.

[Josh Arnold]

How about that?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's amazing, isn't it? But that's actually how they invented that whirly art they used to have at the state fair.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember that?

[Chick McGee]

Did you ever do one of those

[Tom Griswold]

swirl art so it spins around? Oh, that's great. There's a great variation on that that Josh got for my kids. A Few years ago for Easter eggs.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, it's coming up.

[Tom Griswold]

Crayons and it spins the eggs. Wonderful. Thank you, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Welcome.

[Christy Lee]

Do you have a spirograph when you were a kid?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sure, absolutely.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Did you have one of those chick. The Spiderography.

[Chick McGee]

I loved it.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that the thing that would turn. You would put your pencil in it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Justin Scott]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And it had different kind of wheels,

[Chick McGee]

hollow gear, and you're inside and.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I liked that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And now we have, coming up, a discussion with a gent who climbed radio towers for a living.

[Chick McGee]

Our week long celebration of idiots in the workforce.

[Christy Lee]

Now, we're not going to call him an idiot today. Fearless.

[Tom Griswold]

I wonder if he ever got people in the workforce. Suppose he ever got up there and forgot the bulb. These are. These are valid questions.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Did he have a walkie talkie to go? Lloyd? Yeah, I forgot the bulb.

[Christy Lee]

They have a big bucket that you

[Tom Griswold]

could like under some gag. He sends the bucket down, but, you know, never.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Got a present for you, Lloyd. What have you got, Christy?

[Christy Lee]

A cell phone exploded in the pocket of a guy, but it may have saved his life. This happened to a man in Brazil. He was attacked by two large dogs while walking to work.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that sucks. Yeah, what a day I'm having.

[Christy Lee]

One of the dogs lunged at his throat. When it went for his leg, it bit down on the phone in his pocket, causing the battery to explode.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

The blast burned through his shorts and left him with minor birds, but burns. But it did scare the dogs away.

[Chick McGee]

What type of jaw strength do you have to have. Have to crunch on a cell phone?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, big dog, big dogs. So it was a burner phone?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, it turned out to be.

[Tom Griswold]

My phone blows up. It means I'm just getting too many texts, but this is serious business.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow, it's that. That, by the way, is the new iPhone C4. They've just come out with that. Is it a Samsung C4? I'm sorry.

[Christy Lee]

On a lighter note, the total lunar eclipse will turn the moon blood red across several continents this week. The spectacle will be visible early Tuesday morning in North America, Central America and the western part of South America, while in Australia and eastern Asia, it will be seen on Tuesday night. Now, during a total lunar eclipse, the Earth, of course, is between the sun and a full moon, casting a shadow that covers the moon, if you believe

[Josh Arnold]

that kind of thing.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, and the so called blood moon is red because of stray bits of sunlight filtering through the earth's atmosphere and pollution. Christy, Tuesday's Total eclipse of the moon comes two weeks after a ring of fire. Solar eclipse. Eclipse that dazzled people and penguins. The penguins were dazzled. Were they?

[Tom Griswold]

I left that in there. This is a. From the Associated Press. The last line. It dazzled people and penguins in Antarctica. Really?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

The penguins looked up.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I think they

[Tom Griswold]

could. Really.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, hey, Bert, you hear that?

[Josh Arnold]

Huh? What's that?

[Chick McGee]

Something's going on up in the sky there.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I don't think you. Whoa.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, you know something, by the way?

[Chick McGee]

Is it me, or are you cold, too? Aren't you cold?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm looking forward. The frog Friday. I hear it's casual Friday. Get rid of the tux.

[Chick McGee]

And what?

[Josh Arnold]

Dazzled.

[Chick McGee]

What about this? Is there a rumor on the Internet? I saw this come across the timeline. Something's heading toward the Earth for 27, and it seems to be guided by some. It's one of these gigantic rumors. Did you see this?

[Josh Arnold]

I have seen it, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So you're telling me that idiots get a hold of things, they can type them out and have them go on the Internet?

[Josh Arnold]

It's interesting because there. There are actually scientists going, we don't know why this is moving the way it is.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, They've.

[Christy Lee]

That's.

[Chick McGee]

I think that's what started it.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right. And then. And then people took off with it. But, yeah, they were like, it's not supposed to be moving this way.

[Chick McGee]

And I. I think this is how something real bad might happen is that we go, that's ridiculous.

[Tom Griswold]

Is anyone suggesting sacrificing virgins? Not yet, because that would be the way to go. And by the way, now both male and female, female versions.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

That's the politically correct way to do human sacrifice?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You got to do both male and female.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, just suppose back in the day that some, what we would consider somewhat primitive group would see one of these eclipses and go, whoa, we angered them.

[Josh Arnold]

Some. Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We have to sacrifice gods.

[Chick McGee]

Well, think about it. When they saw eclipses, they did that, and the sun came back.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, exactly. I mean, like the coincidences.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Kind of worked in their favor, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Chief, you know your idea about the virgin? I think it worked.

[Chick McGee]

Thank God.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way, that was my niece. You.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God. There was an interesting story over the weekend about. I found a mummy of a girl that was one of these sacrificial virgins, but she was. She was sitting with her arms crossed. She was. She froze to death. They left her out to freeze rather than putting her on an altar.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy.

[Christy Lee]

Many, many, many, many years ago. And she's almost completely. I mean, it's. It's as if she was. Had woke up yesterday. I mean, you know what? She's just so preserved. It's pretty incredible.

[Josh Arnold]

Weird.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So they wrapped her up after she froze.

[Christy Lee]

She wasn't mummied. She. They just left her. She just. The ice and snow covered her while she was sitting there, and. And they found her many thousands of years later. And she had been preserved that way. She wasn't a mummy. I guess I shouldn't have said that way.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry.

[Christy Lee]

She was mummified.

[Tom Griswold]

So they didn't throw off a cliff and she did a cannonball.

[Christy Lee]

No, but.

[Chick McGee]

Newscast.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, frozen that way.

[Chick McGee]

Newscast then, though, said, we don't know if this worked, but we. One thing's for sure. We. We never will find a solution. Back to you, Chris.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up, we're gonna talk with Mr. Justin Scott, radio tower climber, and find out what. What it's like to do something that dangerous. And we certainly appreciate your presence.

[Chick McGee]

Our hairbrained employment week continues.

[Tom Griswold]

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

[Announcer]

Got a comment to share, text us at 888-262-8661. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Her.

[Christy Lee]

Howdy.

[Chick McGee]

Howdy. There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Chick McGee. We're gonna do something special right now. We're gonna talk with Mr. Justin Scott. I think we have him on the line. Justin, can you hear me?

[Justin Scott]

I can.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, it's great talking to you, sir. It's my understanding you formerly were a radio tower climber. Is that correct?

[Justin Scott]

It is, it is, unfortunately.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, what do you say? That you didn't get hurt, did you?

[Justin Scott]

No, no, no, no. It's just a young man's game. I fell in love with the industry at a young age, being just one of those guys. And nobody tells you when you're younger that your body is going to slowly fall apart on you later. Just. Just a job that I love and I miss, dear.

[Tom Griswold]

So when you climb these towers, are you. Is it primarily to change light bulbs?

[Justin Scott]

Primarily? No. Those light bulbs very rarely burn out. Generally, you're climbing up there to maintain one of the several systems they have, whether it's the communications with Microwave all your DirecTV signals come from there now and then. Of course, cell phones is the primary game.

[Tom Griswold]

Aha. We. The reason I brought it up that way was because we just had someone come here to climb our tower, one of the towers where we are, and change the light bulb that was on top.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't want to tell you your business, but we got a microwave in the break room. I don't know what you're talking about. As far as if I want popcorn, I'm not climbing to the top of that tower. Am I right, everybody?

[Tom Griswold]

Justin, when you're climbing one of these, do you, like, have a safety line that you hook up every couple feet? Feet?

[Justin Scott]

Absolutely. OSHA laws are very strict. Obviously with this job. The older towers do not have a safety strand on them, so you have to hook up every couple of feet, unhook, hook again, and so forth. The new towers have a 3,8 inch steel strand cable that goes from the bottom all the way to the top. You got a little mechanism that's on your chest. It clicks to it, it goes up, it goes down. If you go down too fast, it locks and catches you.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you ever climb a tower with the more primitive safety feature and slip and have it be dangling there?

[Justin Scott]

A few times? Yeah, a lot of the old.

[Chick McGee]

A few times.

[Justin Scott]

Well, Chick, you know, there is things like wind and rain.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my gosh, I don't know. The first half time I'd stop.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Wouldn't take me a full time.

[Tom Griswold]

So when you're dangling there, then what do you do? Do you have a radio to tell someone to come get you or.

[Justin Scott]

Well, hopefully you didn't take too much of a spill and you can just pick yourself up and go on about your day. Yeah, you do have a radio on you. And you know, if you not say you knock yourself unconscious, there's a guy on the ground that should be able to see you dang in there. Just blow it in the breeze.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

What a great job.

[Josh Arnold]

On average, how long does it take you to get from the bottom to the top? Top?

[Justin Scott]

It depends on the height of the tower. Thousand foot tower. A couple of hours.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay,

[Tom Griswold]

this. This is going to sound stupid, but it's because I'm asking it. Do you ever hear in your, like, in your fillings in your mouth, do you ever hear like an AM radio signal from the tower you're climbing?

[Chick McGee]

Yes, please tell.

[Josh Arnold]

Or is it like a weird feeling, like, can you tell that you're being

[Justin Scott]

bombarded with some sort of radiation with Radioactive violation.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

I asked this because during an interview,

[Chick McGee]

if you ever wanted to punch anyone more. That's my question.

[Tom Griswold]

My toaster used to get the AM radio signal from this building where we are, the tower. Because I lived like a thousand yards away and I could literally hear the sports broadcast.

[Christy Lee]

Would it only when you had to turn the toaster on in your feelings.

[Justin Scott]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

No, you didn't. Never heard that. Okay, I understand. It's a phenomenon that happens to many.

[Announcer]

Can you.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there. This is another stupid question. If you touch a radio tower, can you get electrocuted?

[Justin Scott]

If it's an AM tower, absolutely.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Justin Scott]

If you touch an FM tower, you're fine. If you touch an AM tower, you are going to get a very, very large jolt and you're not going to like it at all.

[Tom Griswold]

That's currently happening in the financing of radio.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah,

[Josh Arnold]

We're all terrified.

[Chick McGee]

So we have a couple weeks of employment.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. So once again, we're speaking with Justin Scott, a man who at one point was a tower climber. Professionally now.

[Josh Arnold]

Tom, go ahead, ask him what you've been dying to. No, no, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

I have other questions before we get to the big one.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Were you just. When you retired from that?

[Justin Scott]

I was about 37, 38 when I was just. It hurt. The climb. Every day soldiers are the first to get.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you have to wait? You couldn't do in the rain, I assume.

[Justin Scott]

365 days a year.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow. Did you ever encounter like a surprise bird up there where you're kind of climbing and all of a sudden right in your face.

[Justin Scott]

Oh, God. Yeah. So when generally you climb through and you open the hatch to the. To the top platform and sometimes there's a bird nice enough to scare the crap out of you.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Justin Scott]

Unless you're in southern Florida. Then it's a snake or a large iguana.

[Tom Griswold]

How'd they get up there?

[Christy Lee]

Same way he did.

[Chick McGee]

Hey.

[Justin Scott]

I've been whipped in the face by iguanas and I literally grabbed snakes and just threw them off the tower. Slowly float in the breeze until they hit the canopy below.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you watch the recent tower or I guess, building climb of that free famous Free Climb climber? Did you see any of that?

[Justin Scott]

Alex is amazing. I've also watched his other solo climb that he does his other documentaries. It's older.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, the Free Solo.

[Chick McGee]

Free Solo, Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I had trouble watching that. It's so scary. I watched the most recent one, but I was thinking, what if he reached up and there was some kind of metal flange and Sliced his hand open.

[Justin Scott]

Right. That's because attached properly.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Or the whole hunk of metal fell off.

[Justin Scott]

Very impressive to watch. And even as a tower climber, I'm watching free solo. I was very sick to my stomach because I know. I know how important safety is and I know the cost of one mistake. So it was very hard for me to watch that, as enjoyable as it was.

[Josh Arnold]

Would you dream about falling?

[Justin Scott]

All the time.

[Josh Arnold]

All the time?

[Tom Griswold]

Time

[Chick McGee]

especially.

[Justin Scott]

We had a partial tower collapse on us one time. That was a really fun day. 600 foot tower. The top hundred feet had broke away in the middle of the night and become weak. And we're up there working at 400ft in the air, and all of a sudden you hear a lot of noise and you feel a lot of jumping around and your instinct is to look down and then you look up and that's, you know, generally when you evacuate all of your.

[Chick McGee]

That brings us to Tom's favorite question.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, if it takes you two hours to get up there and nature calls, obviously, you certainly have peed off the top of a tower.

[Justin Scott]

Oh, yeah, those just fine.

[Tom Griswold]

And we were introduced to the term mud falcon, referencing a more significant bowel issue number two.

[Christy Lee]

Just say it.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you ever have to do that while you're up there?

[Justin Scott]

Unfortunately, yes.

[Josh Arnold]

So please walk us through that.

[Tom Griswold]

What I assume you radio down to Lloyd and go, lloyd, mud Falcon. You might want to get 100 yards away.

[Justin Scott]

Yeah. So. So basically the process of it is. Yeah, of course, first, first off, you radio down, down. Not only are there guys on the ground, there's guys on the tower below you.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Justin Scott]

The second most important thing is to find which direction the wind is blowing towards. Of course you want to. You want to go downwind, downwind side of tower so that hopefully there's enough of a breeze to carry the weight.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Justin Scott]

To track it away from the tower somewhere. What?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Justin Scott]

In the case of my poor friend Andy. One day we had. We had been out the night before and we'd been drinking a lot and we were at a Mexican restaurant. So. So about 10:00 o'clock the next morning, poor Andy starts squirming around and he's like, you guys have got to get to the other side. Call it in. Let them know, you know, stage two cleaner. And Andy had not given enough thought to all of the Mexican food and tequila. And there was. There was nothing solid about it.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Justin Scott]

Unfortunately for him, there's a little bit of a circular wind that day onto his legs and his pants. And we made Andy Abruptly climb down the tower because he was not allowed to work with us anymore.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. I would think you'd want to do a lot of prep. So did you have to know a lot about engineering and that sort of thing? Because once you were up there, you've actually, you've got a lot of stuff you got to do.

[Justin Scott]

Presumably terrifyingly, no monkey with a wrench.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Well, Justin, thanks for talking to us. Justin Scott used to climb towers for a living. And what do you happen to know in today's world, what would it cost for a man or a woman to climb a 1,000 foot tower? Tower? Is it based on height or length of time up there fixing it? What's the.

[Justin Scott]

Generally, it's an hourly rate, anywhere from 75 to $125 an hour. Plus there's a fee associated with coming out to the tower in the first place. So if you've got a thousand foot tower, you got a couple of hours to climb it. So that's probably, you know, $250, $300 and $300 to come out.

[Josh Arnold]

So that's way low, dude.

[Justin Scott]

That much of an extent? It is very low.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Let me ask you this. If you were, say, a fighter pilot and you're in a. In a tavern of some sort and you meet some young lady, that's kind of impressive. Did. Were there. Were there ladies that were impressed with the tower climbers and is there a name for those groupies?

[Justin Scott]

Unfortunately, the ladies are not impressed. It's always the younger guys that are impressed. Which, depending on which way you're going, I suppose is a good or a bad thing.

[Chick McGee]

Sure, yeah.

[Justin Scott]

I mean, in today's world, I don't judge anybody. It's your life. You do what makes you happy.

[Chick McGee]

And oddly enough, they call those gentlemen tower climbers. Oh, yeah. Same thing they do.

[Justin Scott]

Ask how you get into this industry, and my answer has always been it starts with a lot of bad decisions at a young age.

[Tom Griswold]

I see. I see. Well, Justin, you sound like a great guy. Thanks so much for your time. And stay off the towers.

[Justin Scott]

Yes, sir. Tom, thank you so much. I love this show. Been listening a long time. Over 30 years now. Keep doing what you guys are doing.

[Tom Griswold]

That's very kind of you.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow, man, we learned a lot.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we did.

[Tom Griswold]

So next time you see a guy up in that tower, it could be

[Josh Arnold]

he may have had tequila in Mexican the night before. You hope the wind wasn't blowing toward the parking lot a lot, don't you?

[Tom Griswold]

Also, you hope you don't lose Focus. That's the other thing.

[Chick McGee]

Now see there's another great joke. The guy comes out and sees that on his windshield. What kind of bird flew over something like that? Right?

[Tom Griswold]

I see the hell.

[Chick McGee]

What's that bird eat?

[Tom Griswold]

We urge you to stay safe when you're climbing a tower or changing your. Changing out your tire or and peace

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom show in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee at the News D desk. Hello, Pat Godwin at the music thing.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey Chick.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, the music thing.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold at the snarky comments.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, sidekick.

[Chick McGee]

Cheer I believe there's Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chick. Hello, Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

He likes sidekick because it marginalizes my

[Tom Griswold]

role on the show.

[Josh Arnold]

Just so you remember Josh, you're not really a part of the show. You're just the sidekick. Makes Tom feel better.

[Pat Godwin]

He calls me Fifth Banana.

[Tom Griswold]

Trying to think if that's the reason. Let's see now. Oh, I know we have a request, Pat. Oh, let's see. This comes to us from Slow Joe.

[Josh Arnold]

Slow Joe.

[Chick McGee]

Slow Joe.

[Tom Griswold]

He calls himself slow Joe from St. Joe.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Wow. I'd like to get to know him. Said no one ever, but go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's just mean.

[Chick McGee]

What? Hi, I'm Slow Joe.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? Really.

[Chick McGee]

All night.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't want to be. Come on.

[Josh Arnold]

All night with this?

[Chick McGee]

You know, it's my thing.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, there's certain things. You want to be slow though, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You're talking about sex?

[Tom Griswold]

Her?

[Chick McGee]

Are you talking about sex? You talking about the sex?

[Christy Lee]

Talking about the sex?

[Chick McGee]

Go ahead, say what's on your mind.

[Tom Griswold]

Who's this guy?

[Pat Godwin]

I like it.

[Chick McGee]

It's Donovan Franken Reader. I went down his hole over the weekend.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, you went down his hole.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Slow or fast? Say.

[Chick McGee]

Say what's on your mind, he says.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Mr. Godwin. You are phenomenal talent.

[Pat Godwin]

Say it louder.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, and then he's complaining. I. I mentioned the Metallica show. The shows that are set for the sphere. Oh, right, yeah. Coming up this fall. That should should be great.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, they should be.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Not guaranteed.

[Tom Griswold]

It should be, but I said at their age. When the Sandman enters, it's 5:30 in the afternoon.

[Josh Arnold]

I like that show.

[Tom Griswold]

He gets kind of in there early, apparently. That upset at Slow Joe. Sorry, Joe. I thought rather amusing. I'm older. I'm older than those guys, so I can't complain.

[Chick McGee]

I'll get right in Slow Joe's face about that. Yeah. Come on.

[Josh Arnold]

That joke's valid.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I mean, they still got it.

[Chick McGee]

Sure, it starts earlier, but he wants

[Tom Griswold]

to hear your song. I told you which one it was. I don't want to give away the punchline. That's kind of in the title. You know what I'm talking about. Remember the one I requested a few.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, I'm already.

[Tom Griswold]

Go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

God.

[Tom Griswold]

You can start now.

[Chick McGee]

Better way to do this. There's got to be some way you two can get along when we're broadcasting into people's cars and homes about to

[Tom Griswold]

become the Sixth Man.

[Pat Godwin]

This is what he wants to hear. We've said the title before. We don't have to say it now. We'll just do the song.

[Josh Arnold]

All right?

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Pat Godwin]

Really enjoy it.

[Chick McGee]

Sing along friggin guitar, will you?

[Pat Godwin]

If you want to Be a cheater, go out of state to meet her. Don't make a trip, just a Facebook friend. Don't film your love making or text your picture taking. No emails, think before you send. Clear your history, control, alt, delete. Use the hotel's computer on the slide. And if you get asked, just stand there aghast. And deny, deny, deny. Everybody now. Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. If the picture's incriminating, the two of you fornicating, just tell your wife it's photoshopped, she'll buy it. If someone saw you banger, blame it on a doppelganger. Anger that wasn't me there in the park. If you get caught red handed kissing someone else, just say it was mouth to mouth or she would die. If you're at the hospital and your mistress shows up, deny, deny, deny. You know how it goes. Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. Don't go to sporting events that have a jumbo screen. If she confronts you, blame it on AI. Check her clothes for hair and the car for underwear. And deny, deny, deny one more time now. Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny.

[Tom Griswold]

Check the car for underwear. Thank you very much, Pat. You're well once again going out to

[Christy Lee]

slow in the car.

[Tom Griswold]

Lots of people what now leaves their

[Christy Lee]

underwear in the car.

[Tom Griswold]

You have never removed underwear while in an automobile?

[Christy Lee]

I don't believe so.

[Tom Griswold]

You just did the sideways tuck.

[Chick McGee]

Wow, thanks for that, Tom. All right, that does down the old side.

[Tom Griswold]

The old hook and talk.

[Chick McGee]

You know, you would think on. On radio you wouldn't have to audio and visually.

[Josh Arnold]

But apparently the old hook and talk sideways.

[Christy Lee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

If you've ever lost your underwear having some kind of adventure, by all means write us a letter. Bob and tom.com.

[Chick McGee]

hook and Scoop, you numb skull.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sorry.

[Chick McGee]

I am watching the pit as well. Did you watch that episode?

[Tom Griswold]

I think I may be behind by one.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, the older lady was had. Was constipated.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that. I saw that one. That was rough.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they have to hook and scoop.

[Chick McGee]

Hook and scoop.

[Tom Griswold]

How about the guy that. How about the guy that won the hot dog eating contest?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's rough. Yeah. Yikes, huh? Yeah. By the way, I mentioned this earlier. Eric Clapton has just announced some American dates for his tour. So those of you that are Clapton fans, such as yours truly interested. He'll be in Detroit, Cincinnati, Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Kansas City. Those are the only ones I've seen. I know he's touring this summer in. In September.

[Chick McGee]

In September. He's in those events.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

How many of you have seen him?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow.

[Josh Arnold]

And in any iteration, probably about 10. Oh, nice. Would you say that's the most of any musician that you've seen their concert?

[Tom Griswold]

Very good question, and I'm not sure of the answer.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe I've never seen him live with you guys.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

I have saw him, met him. He signed my guitar.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's amazing.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

I went with Tom to see. See Cream in London. That was amazing.

[Tom Griswold]

I've seen him. I've seen him in London, Dallas, New York. Wow. Lots of places.

[Josh Arnold]

If he played my. If he played Crossroads first, I would. I think I would be like. Because. Because that's. That's really what I would really love to hear and play. I might be okay. I'm good.

[Christy Lee]

I'm good.

[Tom Griswold]

Gotta go.

[Josh Arnold]

Even though I'd want to stay for the rest. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I'll never forget I saw him and I. This was a long time ago and I took a date who happened to be in medical school and he said, we're going to see who. And I go, eric Clapton. Never heard of him. He never heard of Eric Clapton.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's fine. I mean, he's. I'm glad he knows the difference between a split clean.

[Chick McGee]

There are stupid people. Doctor.

[Christy Lee]

He wasn't very. He wasn't into music much.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you. Was he into you? No. Was the date successful? Did you.

[Christy Lee]

We dated for a while.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

That's a very famous cardiologist.

[Chick McGee]

Did you have, you know, go all the way.

[Christy Lee]

None of your business.

[Pat Godwin]

Do the slide and tuck.

[Christy Lee]

How is the slide and tuck, huh?

[Josh Arnold]

Think about. He may not have known who Clapton was, but did. Did he know? A little slow hand.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, wow.

[Christy Lee]

Well, he.

[Chick McGee]

Did you lay down? Did you lay. Lay down, Sally, Lay down.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, now we return to Christy Lee at the Bob and Tom news desk.

[Justin Scott]

Scared me.

[Chick McGee]

I thought you were gonna say sport. I've got. I've got my. My whole little stand over here packed up.

[Tom Griswold]

He does.

[Josh Arnold]

I can see your desk.

[Chick McGee]

It's.

[Josh Arnold]

It's ready for tomorrow to go.

[Chick McGee]

I'm out the door.

[Pat Godwin]

His.

[Josh Arnold]

His computer's folded. He's got his paper stacked for tomorrow.

[Chick McGee]

I'm this close to putting. Putting the scarf on.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we usually get till 10 till.

[Chick McGee]

Well, here's some sports.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Thailand has begun using a birth control vaccine on wild elephants to curb the population near expanding farms.

[Chick McGee]

Wild elephants, aren't they.

[Christy Lee]

As farmers cut down forest to make more farmland, elephants are forced to venture out of their shrinking habitats in search of Food. Which is very sad.

[Josh Arnold]

Chick, didn't you once go hunting for elephants in your pajamas?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, and how those elephants got in my pajamas, I'll never know. Thank you, Groucho.

[Christy Lee]

Often leading to danger, dangerous and even deadly confrontations.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, what was that?

[Chick McGee]

What the hell?

[Josh Arnold]

Hit that cough button a little sooner.

[Chick McGee]

Huh?

[Tom Griswold]

My God, I hit the cough button. Thank you very much.

[Christy Lee]

One wildlife official told the Associated Press that the new vaccine aims to reduce the wild elephant population in areas with the highest rates of violent human elephant conflict. Oh yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's an injectable meaning. Because back in the day it was a suppository. Boy, that's. That is a rough gig. Because you don't want to get them mad. They can kick you. Boy, you've heard about the guys that have to inseminate cows.

[Josh Arnold]

That's really. That's quite a gig, isn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

That's a, that's a glove that goes up to your shoulder.

[Chick McGee]

No, absolutely, they have that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. And they're called semen jockeys. Right? You think, you think, you think the guys at the Kentucky Derby are small? The semen jockey.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, how are you?

[Pat Godwin]

The old slide and duck man.

[Tom Griswold]

So, so this is a. It's an ant. So it's a birth control vaccine for elephants.

[Josh Arnold]

You think they shoot them from afar?

[Christy Lee]

Like they have to. Like a gun.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And there are a lot of, you know, pesky anti vax elephant people.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I tell you something. New vaccine. Make you tick.

[Tom Griswold]

Jumbo Kennedy is his name.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, I, I want another one minute of silence.

[Pat Godwin]

Vacuum.

[Chick McGee]

No, not silent. It's reflection.

[Josh Arnold]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's right.

[Christy Lee]

He loved it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Of introspective analysis.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they have, do they have that? Do they have that?

[Chick McGee]

Hang on. Still taking a moment. Hang on.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they have that for humans yet?

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

A birth control injection? Yeah, they do.

[Chick McGee]

It's like nor plant.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, Nor plant. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember that. Okay, but. Okay, but it's not like a shot.

[Christy Lee]

Oh no.

[Chick McGee]

Well, but that's how they get it into your well source.

[Christy Lee]

Sorta, kinda kind of sorta.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh no. I bet if you shot any freeze into your balls, they probably wouldn't work anymore.

[Chick McGee]

You know how you make it?

[Tom Griswold]

You know something? I beg to differ. Yeah, go ahead. Hey, Tom, you know how the first time I tried it though it was windshield wiper fluid. I've got to mark that stuff better in my garage.

[Chick McGee]

You know how to make antifreeze, don't you, John? Hydra nightgown.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, very good.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you very much.

[Christy Lee]

A toucan that has been seen flying around Las Vegas for months has finally been captured. Sam the Toucan was living in Vegas since November.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, first off, it's toucan Sam.

[Christy Lee]

Well, it's called Sam the Toucan.

[Josh Arnold]

Are they afraid of being sued by Kellogg?

[Pat Godwin]

That's exactly.

[Chick McGee]

I'm Bernard Schweizer representing Froot Loops.

[Christy Lee]

And though popular with locals, bird experts expressed worry over his health. Sky Marsh from Southwest Exotic Aven Rescue told the AP that Sam had recently flown into a garage and the homeowners were able to shut the door so he could not escape. Gotcha, Sam.

[Chick McGee]

They put the end of their problem.

[Christy Lee]

The rescue group was able to take him to a veterinarian. Despite some wear and tear, Sam appears to be okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, what a Daffy Duck. Teach us, chick. It's if you get shot in the beak, it just spins around to the back of your head.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Cartoon anatomy is the greatest.

[Chick McGee]

Let's try this.

[Tom Griswold]

That again. You get a shovel in the face.

[Chick McGee]

Shoot him now. Shoot him now. You don't have to shoot him now. Oh.

[Christy Lee]

It might still be winter in Minnesota, but spring is in the air for folks who lined up at the Dairy Queen in Morehead, Minnesota for their annual opening. Did you see this? The event is a community tradition, no matter what the weather.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, tell me about this. Leave anything out.

[Christy Lee]

Heritage store has operated for 77 years. Chicken.

[Chick McGee]

Yep.

[Christy Lee]

And people bundled up in coats, hats and gloves and freezing cold to line up Sunday for ice cream treats.

[Tom Griswold]

I went to DQ on Friday night with the. It was. We were watching some movie and Hart comes in and she goes, daddy, can we go to Dairy Queen? And I said, no, it's 9:15. They're closed. No, they're not. They're open till 10. I checked. This is the problem with the Internet.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Was that Hart?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah, there's. It's a wonderful. It's a great dq. Great people, right on it.

[Christy Lee]

So I know which one you're talking about.

[Josh Arnold]

What'd you get?

[Tom Griswold]

I got a vanilla cone.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, a vanilla cone.

[Tom Griswold]

I regret. And I should have gotten a call.

[Chick McGee]

Why would you get anything? As long as the Buster Bar continues to exist, why would you get anything but that? When you go to the dairy bar,

[Tom Griswold]

I get a nice vanilla cone. Although we were talking earlier, I would like to get those ones where they dip it in chocolate. Again.

[Christy Lee]

That's called a dipped cone.

[Chick McGee]

Dilly bars are low rent.

[Christy Lee]

No, they're not.

[Chick McGee]

Buster bars are amazing.

[Josh Arnold]

All right, now are you talking the peanut Buster parfait.

[Chick McGee]

No, no. There's a Buster bar there. Yes. There's chocolate and peanuts and then ice cream and chocolate and peanuts. And they dunk it in chocolate. Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

That sounds amazing.

[Chick McGee]

I don't get.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't get you.

[Christy Lee]

What's heart's go to for Dairy Queen? She gets the blizzard, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Eminem Blizzard.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, fine choice.

[Christy Lee]

Good choice.

[Tom Griswold]

And I wasn't. They just. They. The girls wanted to order. They were in the back seat. So I. It's a drive thru.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they wanted to shout.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. And so I wasn't really paying attention.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And they got the gigantic size. So when I got home, they walk in and Kelly goes, what is that

[Josh Arnold]

at like 9:45 at night? These massive.

[Tom Griswold]

These massive.

[Josh Arnold]

That's awesome.

[Tom Griswold]

Blizzards. And they. They always turn it upside down. The whole deal. They. They give them the whole show. Supposed to get. You're supposed to get the mini.

[Pat Godwin]

Whatever it's called in the car.

[Chick McGee]

Tell everybody what size you get when you go, Christy, you get a mini Mini. Yeah, I get the mini blizzard.

[Christy Lee]

It's just. It's enough.

[Chick McGee]

Why even effing bother?

[Tom Griswold]

No, this thing is the size of a bucket, you know, with the.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, the big one's big.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Delightful. But yeah. So Dairy Queen, they have. It's a special. Where's this place?

[Christy Lee]

This is in Morehead, Minnesota. It's a very special day. It's like, you know, spring is around the corner and everybody lines up. I think it's a really cute.

[Tom Griswold]

I love Dairy Queen.

[Christy Lee]

I love the Dairy Queens that are like that. That kind of close in the winter because they're very regional and very family

[Tom Griswold]

and mom and I'm not in favor of that. I think they should be open 24 hours a day.

[Chick McGee]

It brings us all closer.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you imagine if you're dry? I'm driving into work at three in the morning and I'm gonna go get a Dairy Queen.

[Chick McGee]

You know, urban unrest wouldn't have been bad at all. Would have opened and we could have gone.

[Josh Arnold]

That's right.

[Christy Lee]

Covid killed the 24 hour everything. Thanks, Covet.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right.

[Josh Arnold]

Covid also killed a lot of people.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Pat Godwin]

I didn't mean to video the radio.

[Josh Arnold]

You can say all you want about the 24 hour.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Yeah. I miss my friends, but not as much as I miss a Dilly Bar.

[Josh Arnold]

An alarming amount.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Glattus, we were talking about your dead husband today, but it's funny story.

[Josh Arnold]

We know, we know.

[Tom Griswold]

It just. It just sound.

[Josh Arnold]

Let us not forget Covid Killed a lot of ice.

[Chick McGee]

Put a name on.

[Tom Griswold]

I usually like going to Kroger on my way into work at 3 in the morning. I'll just stop by and visit the cemetery tomorrow. Well, look what you've done, Christy. I'll let you redeem yourself by talking about your favorite car. You've got that Hyundai.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I do. I have a Tucson hybrid and I love it, especially this morning. Check local listings. I was able to put it in the snow mode and get to work safely. And they also have the Santa Fe or Santa Fe hybrid. Hybrid. And don't forget Hyundai's bold and a stylish Elantra that's loaded with the latest tech. And then their go to electric cars, the Ionic 5 and the Ionic 9. Those cars are so cool and literally when you're in them, you feel like you're floating on air. And you also may be like in a Tron movie. So futuristic.

[Tom Griswold]

And if you're poetic, they have the, the Ionic pentameter.

[Christy Lee]

Oh my God. And don't forget the beautiful stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

It's got five wheels, seven passenger Palisade.

[Christy Lee]

Get down to your local Hyundai dealer and get away with a deal you'll love during the Hyundai Getaway sales event. Visit HyundaiUSA.com for details. That's Hyundai USA.com if you're a family

[Tom Griswold]

man, you want to get that Hyundai Palisade hybrid that's got no cleats on the seats because it's got those captain's chairs for the back seats. Then the way back you can stow three there, two in the back and then a passenger complaining about your driving next to you. When we come back, are we going

[Christy Lee]

to talk about that?

[Tom Griswold]

Talk about complaint. What people hate when they're in their car and there's someone. What is someone else doing in your car while you're driving? I've got a lot of complaints about this. We'll get to them. Oh, boy, do I ever. Yikes. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Tom Griswold]

Freddy's bo is stronger than dirt. Okay, Sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

You sure bullied your buddy.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't start it.

[Chick McGee]

I think you did. I think you might have been not only a bully, you might have been king bully when you went to school.

[Tom Griswold]

No, not at all.

[Christy Lee]

No, he was the bullied.

[Tom Griswold]

That was the.

[Christy Lee]

That's why you're a bully now.

[Tom Griswold]

It was the slogan, freddy's bo is stronger than. Than dirt. There's a great door song that ends with the stronger than dirt.

[Chick McGee]

Who came up with that? Who came up with that?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, at the time, there was a. A jingle. I don't know if they still use it.

[Chick McGee]

Well, if it was Mr. Clean or who was stronger than that.

[Josh Arnold]

Was it the scrub and bubbles?

[Chick McGee]

No. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

No, those were. Those were a much later development.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, great guess, but no, I like those scrub bubbles.

[Christy Lee]

Who didn't? They were cute.

[Chick McGee]

I like. You know what I like? Mr. Bubble.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, we grew up with Mr.

[Josh Arnold]

Bubble.

[Christy Lee]

Did you have Mr. Bubble as a kid?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I. I've seen the old. Like a vintage.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Thing because you guys were talking about

[Christy Lee]

that was a big deal for us to get Mr. Bubble and not use Ivory soap.

[Chick McGee]

Ajax stronger than dirt.

[Josh Arnold]

Ah, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Laundry detergent and cleanser.

[Tom Griswold]

Ajax is stronger than dirt. At the end of which door song is it?

[Chick McGee]

Touch Me.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that was Ajax with the white knight around the white horse and the big glance and there would be a dirty thing and zap it.

[Tom Griswold]

And then we heard last week there was a news release that Mr. Clean is being retired. I. Very skeptical.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, well, we'll keep an eye on that.

[Chick McGee]

Boy, that doesn't sound old at all.

[Christy Lee]

Yikes.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

That hurts your ears.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you.

[Christy Lee]

Did you hear that?

[Tom Griswold]

What? Yeah, that's just an old recording.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if it was an accurate recording of how it sounded then. And it's old.

[Justin Scott]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know if they're. Are they still using that slogan?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. I don't even know if it exists as a laundry detergent.

[Tom Griswold]

Ajax.

[Christy Lee]

Ajax.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it does.

[Tom Griswold]

Absolutely.

[Christy Lee]

As a laundry detergent.

[Chick McGee]

How do you know?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I have it as a. I have the powder cleanser, like Comet.

[Christy Lee]

Ajax. Comet.

[Tom Griswold]

I would imagine they still make the laundry detergent. What brand do you use?

[Chick McGee]

Tide. I'm a Tide. I'm a Tide pod guy. I do my clothes in Thai.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you?

[Chick McGee]

Why? It's too cold to do them out. Ty. Thank you very much. You know, I don't. Jokes and I don't get along. You know that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I do that because my mom used Tide. Now do we have time to do this car thing?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. Do we? Do I just do it?

[Chick McGee]

Do it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I do something else. We'll save it for tomorrow.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

You know what? We do have time to hear Ben Gardner.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Hoffy enhanced it one more time. Ben

[Tom Griswold]

Gardner.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't eat it. Christy.

[Christy Lee]

Sorry. Something in front of me and. Yeah. A growing number of Americans are pressing pause on their careers for what's being called an adult gap year. Have you heard about this?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I don't. If I could talk to the person.

[Tom Griswold]

Gap decade.

[Chick McGee]

They're going, you know, there's going to be, there's going to be lots of gaps in your life.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Why take one specifically to nevermind.

[Christy Lee]

Some step away after layoffs or burnout while others use the time to travel, launch passion projects or explore new career paths.

[Tom Griswold]

How do they get the money?

[Christy Lee]

Thank you. Researchers from the University of Washington identifies three main types working holidays focused on projects, free dives that mix adventure with rest and deeper quests taken after burnout to reassess life goals. Some workers are even negotiating many sabbaticals as a long term lifestyle. Tom, could I talk to you?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Christy Lee]

Supporters, including leaders at Harvard Business School, argue structured sabbaticals can help employers recruit, retain and recharge talented employees.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, but a year, that's a long time.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I don't, I don't know. You'd have to have a very specific type of job where that's okay. Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Take a year off.

[Tom Griswold]

Better have an independent income to do whatever you want. What would you do if you had nothing to do for a year?

[Chick McGee]

I'm kind of doing that now.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Sorry. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What do you want? You ask the wrong guy.

[Christy Lee]

Wait a minute.

[Tom Griswold]

What would you do differently?

[Chick McGee]

I can't think of it. I wouldn't get up as early and come in and do nothing to. I go anywhere and do nothing. What?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, very good.

[Chick McGee]

That's kind of my job. Now.

[Tom Griswold]

Tomorrow we're going to talk about things that annoy you when you're driving your car and there are other people, people in it and what they are doing to you or saying to you or dropping on your nice clean seats in your automobile, etc. Etc. We'll get to all that tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
