Josh Arnold
I believe that's the best gooseberry pie
Christy Lee
I ever did eat.
Tom Griswold
Oh, no, I did. It's CSI Mayberry. Yeah. Yes, sir, he ain't be. I do believe that pie could have
Josh Arnold
won a blue ribbon.
Tom Griswold
I really do. Andy. Andy. Hey, we got a dead body down by the filling station. Well, I'll be dog.
Josh Arnold
Let's get in the squad car and take a look.
Tom Griswold
See? CSI Mayberry, Andy and Barney are put to the test each week with a new crime scene to investigate.
Christy Lee
Oh, there it is. Andy. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
I told you.
Pat Godwin
I told you there was a dead body.
Tom Griswold
Oh, boy, this thing beats everything. I hope I got my bullet right here in my pocket. Now, Barney, just calm down. Hey, Gomer.
Josh Arnold
What in the dickens happened here?
Tom Griswold
Golly.
Christy Lee
Hi, Andy. Hi, Barney. Well, you see that feller over there? I shot him.
Josh Arnold
Gomer.
Tom Griswold
Well, you just beat everything, you know that?
Christy Lee
You beat everything.
Tom Griswold
Why'd you do it, Gomer?
Christy Lee
He was my lover. Andy. It was a crime of passion.
Josh Arnold
All right, Gomer, get in the squad car.
Tom Griswold
You're going to prison. Oh, yeah. You're gonna love it in there, Gome. Hey, Gomer. Yeah?
Josh Arnold
When you get there, they.
Tom Griswold
They'll probably take you right to the. To the barber shop. Oh, hey, little tip for you.
Josh Arnold
If someone comes up to you and asks you if you want it long
Tom Griswold
in the back, you might want to say no. Hey, why don't you sing us a
Josh Arnold
song on the way, Gome?
Christy Lee
Alrighty.
Al Jackson
Oh, my papa to be so wonderful CSI Mayberry.
Tom Griswold
Only Bob Television.
Josh Arnold
Well, I. I missed that one.
Tom Griswold
I hope.
Josh Arnold
Hopefully it's streaming somewhere in the waste basket. I hope that's right. It is the Bob and Tom Show. There's Christy Lee at the news desk.
Pat Godwin
Hello.
Josh Arnold
There's Pat. God, Wendy, Josh, Jeff Oskay at the sports desk. Hey, Bad Ace Cosby's there. Hey, I am Josh Arnold and Tom.
Tom Griswold
Where.
Josh Arnold
What state was Mayberry in? Did they ever say North Carolina?
Pat Godwin
North Carolina.
Tom Griswold
All right. Randy Griffith.
Josh Arnold
So it was just based on wherever hell he was from, huh?
Pat Godwin
Mount Aries, where he's from.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
So wherever the hell.
Tom Griswold
We have a. Several. Several copies of the latest Andy Griffith newsletter. Like one right there. I.
Josh Arnold
Well, no wonder you knew where Mayberry was.
Tom Griswold
I. I keep.
Christy Lee
We have the foremost authority on Mayberry sitting in the other room.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, don't get him started.
Christy Lee
Don't get Alan started.
Tom Griswold
Oh, it's a fine, fine show.
Christy Lee
My husband's the same way. He watches it almost every day.
Tom Griswold
Really?
Christy Lee
Yes. It's a relaxed thing. You know how you just want to.
Tom Griswold
The better piece we have is the one called Andy's the Sheriff.
Christy Lee
Yeah, that's a good one.
Tom Griswold
Remember that one? I'll try to dig that one up for another day.
Josh Arnold
I mean, we do what we.
Tom Griswold
I didn't pick that. I need to put that one in the circular file. I don't know where that came from.
Jeff Oskay
That newsletter. Is it printed on a old time printing press or is that a modern day.
Tom Griswold
You mean this one?
Jeff Oskay
Oh, my gosh. Has staples and everything.
Tom Griswold
This is the Andy Griffith Show. Ambassador magazine.
Christy Lee
Oh, yes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I, I have several copies if you'd like one.
Jeff Oskay
Probably everyone in circulation, they just send to you.
Christy Lee
I'm going to out him. Aaron requested that this morning. I overheard him talking to Mark. That's one of my favorites.
Jeff Oskay
Tom did not care for that.
Josh Arnold
Nope.
Tom Griswold
There's a lot of problems on various levels with that one. That will review off the air. Well, it's great to be here. Thank you very much for joining us. We have a lot to get to this morning, of course, including in the world of sports. I know the Cavs win that. That series will continue. Also coming up in the world of. This is really odd. The return of the hacky sack back up. Yeah, it's. And I was aware of this because it's. I have young kids and this has become a huge thing in. In school and high schools again.
Josh Arnold
Oh.
Tom Griswold
And at first I thought. I just was observing and thinking that's interesting. And. But now it's a. It's kind of a national phenomenon. It's been. It's been written up as something that's actually happening out there.
Al Jackson
All right.
Tom Griswold
So also, we've got a great peeping Tom story. And for those named Tom out there, I know it's always awkward. You've got your. Your Uncle Tom, your. Your Peeping Tom. I'm not sure. Are there any.
Christy Lee
Don't you.
Tom Griswold
Tom Thumb, three Mom Tom. Yeah, three Mom Tom.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But I'm just saying we. Do we have a genuine peeping Tom in the news. What I like about the story is it's old school.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I hope.
Tom Griswold
Old school. Peeping Tom, Sure.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. He really worked for it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Yeah. When I was in high school,
Josh Arnold
I
Christy Lee
was on an overnight at my girlfriend's house. And you know how they have those windows that are like floor length and they used to crank out. And we were in her bedroom. We were just hanging out, you know, like girls do. We're teenagers. And this guy was creeping and he was inside the wind. He tried to, like, get through the window.
Josh Arnold
Oh, geez.
Christy Lee
It was awful.
Josh Arnold
Whoa.
Christy Lee
Terrible.
Tom Griswold
But again, he's out there.
Christy Lee
He's out there watching us for a while. We don't know how long he was
Tom Griswold
out there, but you got to give him some credit. All that was sort of in the pre digital age.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, sure.
Tom Griswold
These days, most creeps just do it with their phone.
Christy Lee
And I thought it had to be somebody we knew, right?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
It's not just some stranger walking around neighborhoods trying to look in windows.
Pat Godwin
We had a guy in my neighborhood, Carverton Heights.
Christy Lee
Really?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
When I was a senior in high
Jeff Oskay
school, at our grade school, we had a reoccurring flasher who would come up on the playground to the girls, the old school trench coat just. And then go running. And I think he got away with it three times. I don't think they ever caught him.
Josh Arnold
What a creeper. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Wow. But again, old school.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Taking a risk.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
So up close and personal, the way it should be.
Tom Griswold
Analog flashing. We'll be. We'll be covering that.
Pat Godwin
It sounds warmer.
Tom Griswold
Coming up.
Christy Lee
Analog flashing. Yeah, it does.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. So it's pure.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah. Getting back, like I said, getting back to the old school stuff that's coming up. And we have something in the news that. Pat, this is sort of funny. You mentioned this a couple days ago, and here it is in the Associated Press headline, Adults relive the musical Camaraderie of their youth at Band camps. Yeah. And you said you're gonna go to one this summer. You think?
Pat Godwin
Tommy Emanuel. Yeah. Down in Austin.
Tom Griswold
Wow.
Pat Godwin
Into August.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. That's really cool. But we'll figure we'll hear about this, that this is a thing now. I, I kind of wish I could go back to camp, any kind of camp.
Christy Lee
Well, they've had like the all star camps, like the rock and roll all star camp that you could fantasy.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, the fantasy camps have been around. This is more of a. There are all kinds of camps. They've got camps for brass players and you know, if you played in the high school band but you're, you know, 50 years old now and want to relive those days.
Pat Godwin
The trumpet again.
Christy Lee
The article says one time at band camp. Yeah, yeah, of course.
Tom Griswold
Now when you now at band camp, when you sneak out to smoke, it's not because you're cool, it's because you're embarrassed and ashamed you couldn't quit. But these are different times. But I think that's really cool.
Jeff Oskay
Do they have flag girl camp where the girls go and I don't know, the flags?
Josh Arnold
Probably.
Tom Griswold
You mean for young? Of course.
Jeff Oskay
No, like you know, you know the old people that be flagged that miss twirling the, the old flag on the football.
Tom Griswold
Oh, like the baton twirlers?
Christy Lee
Yeah, the flag girls.
Tom Griswold
Well that's a little specific. There may be one.
Christy Lee
No, there's crazy.
Jeff Oskay
A team of them.
Christy Lee
Team of flag girls.
Tom Griswold
It's like cheerleaders of middle aged flag girls.
Josh Arnold
No, no, no, they weren't. We were taking the. Your, your concept, my bad of being young once and then going back and reliving your youth camaraderie of the flag. The mistake you made was trying to engage him in conversation. We've all made that.
Tom Griswold
Let's come back around to the beginning of this conversation. Is there a flasher camp? You know, you know there's some guy out there who's 85 years old. I used to be a flasher back when I could. Back when I could run.
Jeff Oskay
Or if there's just some guy at Burlington Coat factory and the mayor trying on different ones, seeing which one flails open the best.
Tom Griswold
You always have to think about like you read about these arch criminals and you know they, or the, or the mass murderers, they do have to go to the hardware.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Yes.
Tom Griswold
Is there, what is it called? Is there like an algorithm? If somebody goes and buys lie Visqueen shovel, does it send it right to the FBI? This is somewhat suspicious.
Jeff Oskay
I watch a lot of murder shows and I'll tell you this, the cameras at Walmart are amazing. They catch so many people on those Walmart cameras self checking out A shovel or whatever. Like, oh, here's Tim two hours before the murder behind this queen.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, Mass murders. Garage sales. Garage sales are your answer. Yes. Cash transaction.
Tom Griswold
That'll be pretty rare pretty soon. Anyway.
Jeff Oskay
They catch a lot of people at Walmart.
Christy Lee
Oh, the self service.
Tom Griswold
No cash transactions. Not because cash is. No one's gonna have any money the way things are going. But that's all coming up on the show. I was certainly looking forward to that part.
Josh Arnold
And then I have not getting deeper into that.
Tom Griswold
We have.
Pat Godwin
It's all coming up.
Tom Griswold
We have a tribute coming up to
Josh Arnold
stuff we say for the green room and during the commercial, Al's Bar and Grill coming up where he says something just so backward ass. And then we're. And then, hey, we're back and just have to stew in it and pretend like we're not.
Tom Griswold
And then. Which one of you was talking about Tarzan Boy song yesterday?
Josh Arnold
Oh, I was. It was in my head.
Tom Griswold
Got a letter.
Josh Arnold
Okay.
Tom Griswold
And I'm not familiar with Tarzan Boy, so I'm gonna, I wonder if when
Josh Arnold
you'll hear it, you'll, you'll recognize it.
Tom Griswold
We'll, we'll, we'll dig that one up.
Josh Arnold
Okay. Kind of a silly song from the 80s.
Tom Griswold
A great, a great theme song. Now, Christy Lee's right over there and she got here on time. Yes, I did, as usual. Because you came in your usual punctual manner in your beautiful Hyundai. Tell me more.
Christy Lee
My Tucson Hybrid, which I love. It comes with America's best warranty. It has lane assist, driver assist. It has heated seats, cooling seats, wonderful stereo. Can I tell you, it's just like driving in heaven. That's got to be. It's got to be like that. And when you hit an ev, it's like you're floating on air. I love it. Or you can get the Santa Fe Hybrid, which is a little bit more rugged, a little bit bigger, and you can take that off roading. If you'd like the hybrids from Hyundai, you can get the best of both Worlds by visiting HyundaiUSA.com or, or give them a call 562-314-4603 for more details or simply visit your Hyundai dealer. They're. They're nice people. They'll take care of you.
Tom Griswold
You talk about driving in heaven.
Christy Lee
It's like driving in heaven.
Tom Griswold
I hope the driver's license restrictions are a little steeper.
Christy Lee
You have a trouble this morning?
Tom Griswold
No, just there are so many people out there that have no idea how to drive. It's a green light, sir. Well, this morning Anytime now.
Christy Lee
I can't wait to see what rush hours like. Check local listings. The exit that I take, it's changed again. And I could, I didn't know where to get off. It was like, do I go here? Do I go it? Very confusing. I wonder how many people are going to take the wrong one.
Tom Griswold
With major events coming, they're trying to make it as confusing and difficult as possible. Also coming up today, comedian Al Jackson. We're going to return to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show. The United States Soccer Federation presents the U.S. soccer Podcast. My name is David Goss and I'm
Jeff Oskay
joined by my co host Megan Kleinenberg.
Christy Lee
And now we're giving people an inside look at the World Cup. Time's ticking.
Tom Griswold
I think you can feel the intensity. All the guys are wanting to really stake their claim and they want to be on that World cup roster. There's no doubt about it. Hosting the World cup on home soil
Jeff Oskay
comes with its pressures.
Tom Griswold
But we're just really excited just as the people are.
Christy Lee
The U.S. soccer Podcast, presented by Henkel. Follow and listen on your favorite platform.
Josh Arnold
Hey, it's the Bob and Tom Show. We are live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Thank you so much for being here with us. There's Christy Lee.
Christy Lee
Hi.
Josh Arnold
She's at the news desk. And next to her it's Mr. Pat Godwin. Hello. Jeff Oskay's there.
Jeff Oskay
That's right.
Josh Arnold
And right next to him is Ace Cosby. Hey, Josh. I'm Josh Arnold and Tom, you want to get to some listener letters?
Tom Griswold
I would love to.
Josh Arnold
Well, they are brought to you by Sleep Number. It's the Everything is on Sale Memorial Day event from Sleep Number. Every bed and every base is on sale for personalized comfort night after night only at a Sleep Number store or Sleep number dot com.
Tom Griswold
Thank you very much, Josh.
Josh Arnold
We all love ours, don't we?
Tom Griswold
We begin with, oh, I do love my Sleep Number. Bet I wish I were still in it. I this comes to us from Al. He writes, I enjoyed your discussion about ballpark hot dogs. Reminded me of a famous quote from Humphrey Bogart. I'd never heard this, but I do like it. A hot dog at the ballpark beats roast beef at the Ritz.
Josh Arnold
I agree. Yes.
Tom Griswold
That's why we've been talking about. I just had this romance with a hot dog over the weekend and reminded me how much I like them. Al owns Al's Bar and Grill in Kansas City. Not only do we have a hot dog on the menu, we Also served. We also serve fried bologna and onions. It's a slab of bologna about half an inch thick. Whoa. There's a young boy who comes in with his parents all the time. He asked for the bologna sandwich by ordering the hot dog. Hamburger.
Josh Arnold
That's exactly what it is. That's hilarious. I wonder how they fry it.
Christy Lee
Oh, Ace, come on.
Tom Griswold
Well, now, this is a. This is a thick slab of bologna. Really, Ace. Not.
Christy Lee
It's not going to curl.
Tom Griswold
Not. Yeah, the thin sliced bony of baloney, of course, will dome. As you know, Pat, when you're frying. That's why you. You make small slices at 12 o', clock, 3 o', clock, 6 o' clock and 9 o'. Clock. And that won't happen. You're welcome. But by the way, Al points out that he deliberately spells baloney B A L O, N E, Y. Yeah, why not? And he goes a. P.S. i know I spelled baloney wrong, but baloney should end in a Y. I mean, this, this is the thing. Can you imagine trying to learn English?
Christy Lee
No.
Tom Griswold
And you encounter things like the word baloney.
Josh Arnold
That's not an English word.
Tom Griswold
Or the word colonel.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
I remember I used to read the word colonel in the sad sack comic books and I thought it was colonel because it's. See, what is it? C, O, L, O, N, E, L. Yes. These words, they don't make sense. English is impossible. How would you spell.
Josh Arnold
Go learn Mandarin. See how you do.
Tom Griswold
How would you spell. How would you spell the word yacht? I mean, what is it?
Christy Lee
Y, A C, H, T. Yeah, it
Tom Griswold
should be Y, O, T. Well, why is there an acid island?
Christy Lee
Oh, boy. Hey, I heard Christy mentioned dog and suds yesterday. There is a dog and suds in Tomahawk, Wisconsin with your choice of having a car hop or eating on a picnic table. Very nostalgic. This is from Serena. She says, come on up, I'll buy.
Josh Arnold
Well, that's fun.
Christy Lee
Well, thank you, Serena.
Jeff Oskay
Speaking of hot dogs, Williams says radio royalty, I'm hoping we can continue hearing stories about hot dogs both Thursday and Friday. That would be a fitting conclusion to what I'm calling Wiener week on the Bob and Tom Show. I would also suggest in the future you save all hot dog related news until midweek so you can have a reoccurring Wiener Wednesday. That is from Bill.
Josh Arnold
That's a pretty good suggestion. Wiener Wednesday. Give us all your hot dog tips.
Tom Griswold
Christy.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Weren't you saying the wiener mobiles are going to be at the Indy 500?
Christy Lee
They will be on carb day. They're going to have their little wiener race.
Josh Arnold
Please tell me they have a wieners circle.
Christy Lee
Oh, I hope so.
Josh Arnold
Yes. Otherwise.
Christy Lee
And then they have that little halo of wieners that they put around like they put the wreath of flowers.
Tom Griswold
A halo of wieners. How are we not.
Josh Arnold
A wiener reef?
Christy Lee
A wiener reef.
Tom Griswold
That is great. Okay, now, I do not remember this song, Tarzan Boy, but Chris in Bakersfield, California, took the time to write us a letter. Dear Bob and Tom, it's a distant memory. Tarzan Boy was actually on Teenage mutant Ninja Turtles 3. The soundtrack.
Josh Arnold
You know, I never saw part three where they turtles in Time. I never saw that one.
Christy Lee
But you knew.
Tom Griswold
I'd like to say that typically, I say the most obscure things on the air, but not today. You know the title.
Josh Arnold
Well, I was like 14. Of course. I mean, it was like.
Tom Griswold
It was great, huh?
Jeff Oskay
But.
Josh Arnold
I know, but I never heard. I never saw the third one. I'll have to see it. I know they go back in time.
Tom Griswold
I hear it's like Godfather 3. You don't want to see it. In any event, he said I had Tarzan Boy on the cassette tape of Teenager mutant Ninja Turtles 3. What was the subtitle again? Turtles of Time on a cassette tape. I wore it out playing it over and over.
Josh Arnold
It's a fun one.
Tom Griswold
That's Chris in Bakersfield. He says he loves the show. Thank you, Chris. Is this the. I don't know.
Josh Arnold
Which version of this Baltimore is the. The original.
Tom Griswold
Wait a minute.
Christy Lee
That's not it.
Jeff Oskay
This is it.
Tom Griswold
Is it? This is it.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah. What year? I don't remember, but it's certainly 80s, isn't it?
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Kind of a long intro. Must be. The credits roll in here.
Josh Arnold
It's been four seconds. It's a little long.
Christy Lee
I remember this. Sure.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I gotta tell you, I'm enjoying this.
Josh Arnold
It's a fun one.
Tom Griswold
This really isn't bad. You know, this reminds me. You know what this reminds me of? Horrible. Remember that John Parr song?
Christy Lee
A little bit, yeah.
Tom Griswold
What was that called? Yeah, Naughty, Naughty. Do you agree with me that it has that same. That same 80s keyboard thing going on with the rhythmic track?
Christy Lee
I love that song.
Tom Griswold
Song. Naughty, Naughty.
Christy Lee
Yeah, you. I know you didn't like John Power, but that's okay.
Tom Griswold
What do you mean?
Christy Lee
Did you.
Josh Arnold
He was average.
Tom Griswold
I just said how much I like that song.
Christy Lee
I totally remember that song now. I never knew it was called Tarzan Boy.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, that's.
Jeff Oskay
That's a good.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, makes sense now.
Christy Lee
Well, sure makes sense.
Tom Griswold
Well, this is Naughty Naughty. See, if you Think. See if you agree. This sounds similar.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, they've all got that.
Tom Griswold
Especially the part coming up.
Jeff Oskay
Right here.
Josh Arnold
How many wine coolers got slammed to that song?
Christy Lee
Boy, I danced my ass off to.
Jeff Oskay
That boy was just shaking it.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Remember he played a parking lot?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, he was here. We had him. The.
Josh Arnold
He was John park that day.
Jeff Oskay
I thought you said Paige.
Tom Griswold
That's the second killer line of the day. We got Teenage Newton mutant Ninja Turtles 3. And now John park, the wine cooler. Boy, that came and went so fast.
Christy Lee
California coolers.
Tom Griswold
Then followed by Bartles and James.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, they were delicious when I was 7 and would take a sip for my mom's.
Tom Griswold
Do they even make them anymore?
Josh Arnold
I don't know.
Christy Lee
Well, now they have all those High noons and.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Seltzers.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but I mean, the wine coolers were. That was everything.
Jeff Oskay
Mom.
Christy Lee
Water.
Tom Griswold
Many a person listening right now was conceived due to excessive wine cooler consumption.
Josh Arnold
There's no doubt.
Tom Griswold
Why'd you name your kid Bartles? Funny you'd ask.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, we were listening to John Barr.
Tom Griswold
It was either gonna be Barb Bartles or Marlborough. We figured. We figured we'd go with the booze rather than the cigarettes.
Josh Arnold
Now, where's your brother? Oldsmobile.
Tom Griswold
No, you mean truck bed.
Josh Arnold
Oh, summer. Yeah, A summer baby.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah. I'm thinking about truck bed sex all the time now because of.
Josh Arnold
Pretty good.
Tom Griswold
No, I'm glad.
Christy Lee
Because you got married and everything.
Tom Griswold
No, no, no, no. Because I'm listening to this song called 20 cigarettes.
Christy Lee
Oh.
Tom Griswold
And there's a little bit of hanky panky in the truck, but. Oh, it's a great song.
Christy Lee
My Oldsmobile was big enough to do it in the back seat.
Josh Arnold
Most. Yeah, they were a big car.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, but you're like 4 foot 2. You can do it in the backseat of any car.
Pat Godwin
The backseat of a Bug.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Glove compartment. Okay. Okay. That might be a little small. Where were we? And by the way, does anybody ever put gloves in the glove compartment?
Christy Lee
I do.
Josh Arnold
Oh, you have gloves in there?
Christy Lee
Sometimes, yeah.
Josh Arnold
Nice.
Tom Griswold
And now they call it the glove box.
Christy Lee
Right, so. Well, now they put that thing in the middle, though, between the. You know, the. Between the seats, so you can put stuff in there. So a little handier than putting glove box.
Tom Griswold
How many people. The last thing they did in their life before they slammed into the. To the brick wall was reach for something in that glove compartment halfway across the Oldsmobile dashboard.
Christy Lee
Well, yeah, I don't think you do that.
Tom Griswold
They hadn't thought of putting that console right there. Although I still don't get the radio controls on the steering wheel. I mean, really, I love it.
Christy Lee
What are you talking.
Josh Arnold
I like them, too.
Christy Lee
I use it every day.
Jeff Oskay
Really?
Tom Griswold
You can't reach the 12 inches over.
Josh Arnold
I'm sure you can, but it's.
Christy Lee
You want to take your eyes off the road.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, you probably. You probably valet park at a place where the lots right there.
Christy Lee
No, I don't. But I like my radio.
Tom Griswold
I don't.
Christy Lee
You like to take your eyes off the road.
Tom Griswold
I never look at the room.
Jeff Oskay
He doesn't look.
Josh Arnold
I never look at the road.
Jeff Oskay
He doesn't.
Tom Griswold
I don't have to because Kelly's backseat driving so much. I just follow her instructions. I want to hit the brakes. Okay.
Josh Arnold
Oh, you make a ride in the back seat.
Tom Griswold
And that's another thing. Backseat driving. Wrong name.
Christy Lee
Yeah, it should be passenger seat.
Tom Griswold
Passenger seat driving is what it really is. We're fixing a lot of stuff today. Yeah, we've already fixed the word yacht.
Josh Arnold
It started with taxi drivers. That's why it was backseat driving.
Tom Griswold
Really?
Josh Arnold
That's just my guess. I figured if I said it confidently enough.
Christy Lee
That's logical. It does make sense.
Tom Griswold
That's my trick. If you say things with confidence, no matter how wrong you are.
Josh Arnold
But we learned that from watching C Span.
Tom Griswold
In any event, we heard Tarzan Boy and John Parr. To me, I'm probably the same producer.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. All those 80s guys. Well, they all have the same dealer. And then they would. They would meet up and talk.
Tom Griswold
Now I forget why. I brought up car repossession yesterday. And we got a nice story out of Mr. Oskar.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Again, you want to do the short version of it for us?
Jeff Oskay
I came out one day and I thought my car was stolen, and come to find out it was stolen by the bank.
Christy Lee
They don't tell you they're coming to repo your car.
Jeff Oskay
They may. Maybe that's what one of those envelopes that I never opened was about.
Tom Griswold
How many payments behind were you.
Jeff Oskay
I don't know, like seven months.
Tom Griswold
And you just weren't thinking?
Christy Lee
I think that's. That's.
Jeff Oskay
I thought that they were like, hey, that car's a piece of crap anyway. We don't need it. We'll just let them have it.
Tom Griswold
Dear Bob and Tom writes, Michael, during my first marriage, my wife assured me she had been making the car payments. One Sunday morning, I opened the front door of my home. No car. She had lied to me. Oh, we got divorced. Short story, that happened to a friend of mine, except it wasn't his car that was repossessed.
Christy Lee
Was it his house?
Tom Griswold
Yep. Oh, whoa. Long story.
Christy Lee
She said she was making the payments and wasn't.
Tom Griswold
Oh yeah.
Jeff Oskay
I follow a car repossessor guy on the socials.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
And people, they try a bunch of tricks to not get their car repossessed. Like they'll park their other car behind their car in the driveway. So now they'll just pick up the other car and drag it out into the street and then grab the car they want and take it.
Christy Lee
Oh my God.
Tom Griswold
Is that a freelance gig? I mean, do you get paid by the car?
Jeff Oskay
I think so.
Tom Griswold
Do you work for a company?
Jeff Oskay
I think it's like bail bonds type thing.
Josh Arnold
Gotcha.
Jeff Oskay
Get a bed for it.
Tom Griswold
That'd be scary though.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Oh no. People shoot at you.
Christy Lee
People don't want you to take their car.
Jeff Oskay
Oh yeah. There's people who will get in the car and drive it off the flatbed, which is hilarious as they're just nose. Oh, my front nose into the road. Just destroyed their car.
Tom Griswold
I said something funny yesterday. I felt bad for the guy driving. It was. It was a car with one of those trucks that had like eight cars on it.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And the poor guy was confused at a certain intersection on the freeway. I won't go into too much detail, but I can't say I blame him. And he had. He was trying to turn around in a gas station parking lot back to the right freeway. That took a while.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
It's a 59 point turn, isn't it?
Tom Griswold
I don't know. Just felt bad. Looked up. I was watching my girls lacrosse game about this poor guy. Man is going to take a week to get the.
Josh Arnold
Hopefully people gave him some grace. But they. They don't know.
Tom Griswold
It's not easy driving.
Jeff Oskay
You pulled a trailer before, right, Josh?
Josh Arnold
Sure.
Jeff Oskay
Back with Raleigh. Like it's a. During rush hour. Trying to get on a crowded. Nothing more terrible.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. No. And people don't like trucks. They're. They. And they let you know it. Which is. Which is insane.
Tom Griswold
This poor guy dealing with a situation where the signage is terrible. There's a construction thing and they haven't put up the right signs.
Josh Arnold
Ye.
Jeff Oskay
That's a bummer.
Christy Lee
So I'm always afraid one of those cars is going to come off of those.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
You know, do you ever feel like that? They do, sure.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh really?
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, you mean while you're.
Jeff Oskay
You're.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Like the freeway. Yeah. I've always worried about that.
Tom Griswold
Remember they're. They're going the same speed you are.
Christy Lee
If a car flies off the back. It's going to.
Jeff Oskay
Well, they're gonna.
Tom Griswold
They're gonna have a little bit of forward, I guess. Not a lot.
Josh Arnold
I've always wondered if they were set in neutral so that. So that if it's did go off, at least if you hit it, it sort of bumped out of the way. I mean, I know you're still going to feel it. It's better than if it's just sitting there and park.
Tom Griswold
Oh, they have to be in park, don't they?
Josh Arnold
Probably.
Christy Lee
But wow. Either way, we're tackling some tough objects.
Tom Griswold
This is why you don't want to be too close behind. No, I want a special salute to the men and women driving those big trucks. We certainly appreciate it. And I don't know how you do it.
Josh Arnold
And when they have their blinker on,
Jeff Oskay
let them over
Josh Arnold
and then don't pass them on the right because now the rest of us are stuck behind it in the left lane.
Jeff Oskay
Exactly.
Tom Griswold
Driving tips from the Bob and Tom program.
Jeff Oskay
I have an apology to Josh. We got a letter yesterday. We were talking about Jim Jones and the Kool Aid and all that. And I had made a Kool Aid man joke, Right. And this person wrote in. I want to call out a comedic injustice in the highest regard. Earlier this week, the beloved Jeff Oscar.
Christy Lee
Oh, okay.
Josh Arnold
Beloved.
Jeff Oskay
Made a humorous joke about the Kool Aid man walking in on a member of Jonestown. He specifically mentioned the line the Kool Aid man said. Oh, my God. Funny joke. Had it not already been perfectly executed a couple years ago by Josh Arnold.
Al Jackson
Oh.
Jeff Oskay
I specifically remember him making the exact same joke as when Josh hit the punchline. I was bench pressing alone and laughed so hard I crushed myself under the weight.
Josh Arnold
Oh, my goodness.
Jeff Oskay
Nice try, Jeff. Josh beat you to it. So I apologize, Josh, for.
Josh Arnold
You know, Jeff, I did not remember.
Tom Griswold
Was a fine joke.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah.
Jeff Oskay
It was good enough that it went into my subconscious and I repeated it.
Josh Arnold
Welcome to it.
Tom Griswold
Because. And the. The problem was Jim Jones, who was. What was it? Guyana? Where did that take place? It was some.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Some weird place where everyone. That's where the phrase drank the Kool Aid came from. But it wasn't Kool Aid.
Christy Lee
No, it was Flavor Aid. His son is still out there. That poor guy. Can you imagine?
Tom Griswold
Jim Jones son.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Josh Arnold
Wow.
Christy Lee
I've watched a lot of documentaries on that. It's a. But terrifying.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. So that. So that it wasn't the Kool Aid Man. But has Kool Aid recovered from that?
Christy Lee
I don't think Kool Aid ever really suffered. They still do A very nice product.
Tom Griswold
Oh, okay.
Christy Lee
You guys don't have Kool Aid in your house. You got kids, for God's sake.
Tom Griswold
I don't think we have any Kool Aid.
Christy Lee
I loved making Kool Aid as a kid. That was such a treat.
Tom Griswold
Only thing I put, only powder I put in stir is Metamucil. Maybe they should make. Remember we talked about kids, adults going to band camp? Maybe it's time the Metamucil people stepped up. And, hey, it's grape Metamucil. What does the Kool Aid guy say in that case?
Josh Arnold
Go, yeah, dad, can we get more of that orange blobby Kool Aid? Well, you make a Metamucil and you forget for two minutes, you come back, it is a milkshake. Yep, that does thicken quite. Which is it, really? When I see that, I go, oh, that is absolutely getting everything out.
Tom Griswold
That reminds me of something. Coming up in the news. Today is the anniversary of the patent for Vaseline petroleum jelly. Oh, but I don't know if you guys know this, if this has ever happened to you. My vet told me, when your dog eats something that it shouldn't eat and you want to assist your dog in throwing up, take a dog biscuit and covered in Vaseline petroleum jelly and give it to him. Maybe there's a vet out there that can tell me not to do that. But that's what I was told by my vet. So whenever I think of Vaseline, I think of. Well, there's a couple things I think of, but one of them is coating a dog biscuit and giving it to him. So a little trick there. Your today's dog. Dog, dog tip. Okay, you're welcome. Right now, I want to talk. Here's a tip for you about taking advantage of the really odd housing market right now. If you own your own home, it's probably worth a lot more than it was when you bought it. It depends on your circumstance. Of course, American Financing has an idea for you. If you'd like to take advantage of the fact that your house is worth a lot more, but you don't want to sell your house, you might want to refinance it. The idea being you can pull some cash out and maybe pay off some heavy credit card debt or, I don't know, get new kitchen appliances, it's your money. Do whatever you want. American Financing, this is their specialty, the refi. It's called America's Home for Home Loans. Now, what I'm talking about is making, you know, give them a call, and in about 10 minutes. They can tell you if this might work out for you. A way to kind of reclaim your budget problems, if you will. No upfront fees, no pressure. This is you'll be talking to salary based consultants. They sent me these stats on average saving about 800 bucks a month on that mortgage payment. And they also have a program, at least for now, that might be able to delay two mortgage payments that might really help you get your head above water once again. It's called American Financing. You can reach them@American financing.net as a favor to us. Why don't you put slash Bob and Tom so they know that we sent you American financing dot net. You can even call them 866-889-2611. It's a lot easier to remember American financing dot net grab the phone number, call them up and see if this might work out for you.

Christy Lee
Hi there.
Josh Arnold
Wearing some nice spring colors.
Christy Lee
Thank you.
Josh Arnold
There's Pat Godwin.
Pat Godwin
Don't talk to me until I've had my coffee.
Josh Arnold
Oh, boy, you know how he gets. There's Jeff Oskay. Ace Cosby's there. Howdy, Ace. Do you drink coffee?
Al Jackson
No.
Josh Arnold
I'm Josh. Arnold. And there's Tom. What do you. What gets you going in the morning? Ice water. Okay.
Christy Lee
My niece does that.
Josh Arnold
Water?
Christy Lee
I drink hot water. Yeah, right.
Tom Griswold
That sounds great.
Christy Lee
I know you don't drink water.
Josh Arnold
I have about 32 ounces when I first get up. Of water.
Christy Lee
Really?
Josh Arnold
Oh, yes. 32 a gallon a day. Bunch. Yeah. Plus.
Christy Lee
Yeah, I drink a lot of water, too. All day long.
Josh Arnold
I love it.
Tom Griswold
Carry that big jug around.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, man.
Jeff Oskay
Love that.
Tom Griswold
Okay, now, I usually. How many ounces when you first wake up?
Josh Arnold
About 32.
Christy Lee
That's a lot. That's a lot.
Tom Griswold
That's about what I pee.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Even though there have been several side trips during the evening.
Josh Arnold
Right, right. Still amazing.
Tom Griswold
Okay. It's just all it. All exits. Well, thank you very much.
Josh Arnold
How long can you be in a movie before? Did you have to take at least one bathroom break?
Tom Griswold
Never during a movie.
Josh Arnold
You. Oh, you. Oh, dude, I haven't been able to.
Christy Lee
Are you serious?
Josh Arnold
I have to pee now? During movies? Yeah, at least once.
Tom Griswold
How about during airplane flights?
Josh Arnold
You know, somehow I'm okay there. Yeah. I can go a couple hours.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. I do not like to pee on a plane.
Christy Lee
Yeah, we know.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah. It's a hassle.
Josh Arnold
Tom, how many times a night do you get up?
Tom Griswold
Usually about three.
Christy Lee
Really?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
That's about me too.
Tom Griswold
And I have a chat with my dog.
Pat Godwin
Hey.
Tom Griswold
Really? I thought you were supposed to be sleeping on the floor. Oh, no, no, no, no.
Josh Arnold
Why would I do that? You sleep on the floor. See, if you wouldn't prefer this.
Tom Griswold
Then he says, why are you getting up so early? I'm gonna go back to sleep. Okay. I gotta get a tough day ahead. You got a nap. Taste a squirrel for five minutes and then move on.
Christy Lee
I have a letter.
Tom Griswold
Let's go. Let's hear it.
Christy Lee
This is from Trevor. Hi, Trevor. Dear Bob and Tom, Tom is exactly right about cowboy churches. There are hundreds of them. And some wild horse ministries do travel to churches around the country. They quote, unquote, gentle the horses more than quote, break them. And depending on the horse and trainer, a previously unridden horse can be ridden in less than an hour or two. It's pretty amazing to see.
Josh Arnold
That is amazing.
Tom Griswold
We had a news story about it and I was just saying there's. There are. They're called cowboy churches. They're not. It's not like they're affiliated with each other necessarily, but there are just a lot of churches that have a different approach. It's very interesting.
Christy Lee
Yeah. This one is from Randy. He says our cowboy church in Kansas, he's a member of. There are three in a couple hundred mile area. They do barrel races, ropings, lots of events. That sounds like fun.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
I might go back to church if there's barrel racing.
Tom Griswold
It's A lot more fun getting people together.
Christy Lee
Well, thank you, Randy.
Tom Griswold
I forget why we were talking about them, but you were quite surprised.
Christy Lee
Well, because a friend of mine who goes to a church near Jeff and I's home, which is a big Christian church, they had someone come and break a horse on their stage.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Christy Lee
And I was just a little shocked, but I never heard.
Tom Griswold
A lot of the cowboy churches are in barns and.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
And they're in the West. A little less. A little less formal, but they're all over the place. I sent you a big art.
Christy Lee
You did. I read that. Thank you.
Tom Griswold
And once again, I want to read this quote. I had never heard this before, and I. This is from Al. From Al's Bar and Grill. Humphrey Bogart apparently said, a hot dog at the ballpark beats roast beef at the Ritz. Boy, that is. That's that on Mr. Bogart.
Josh Arnold
Not just culinarily, but socially as well. That's how I feel.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. I'd much rather be.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Whenever I go to a fancy restaurant, I always think I'd rather be working. Washing dishes in the back.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Or making food.
Josh Arnold
No business being here. Yeah. Yeah. I guess if it's one of those places where the guy comes over with that table scraper and gets crumbs, I have. You kick me out now.
Christy Lee
Oh, you don't like that.
Tom Griswold
Although there. There was an era. I think it may be over with the ever expanding pepper grinders by size.
Christy Lee
Yeah, I think that's over.
Tom Griswold
I was waiting for a moment where they had to have three guys carrying it like. Like they're. Like they're pallbearers. Would you like some pepper on your Caesar salad?
Josh Arnold
Oh, please.
Tom Griswold
You know what I'm saying? They got. They got pretty big there for a while. I'd also like. I also just like the salt and pepper shakers. You. I had one the other day at a place, and it was. They were both in the same thing.
Christy Lee
Can't figure out how it works.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. And it looked like that yin yang thing.
Josh Arnold
I don't care for that.
Tom Griswold
Staring at it and. Okay, I give up.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Where does it come out? And which is which?
Jeff Oskay
Boy.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
Even the salt and shaker papers. Pronouns are they.
Tom Griswold
Well, thank you very much. Is that. Does that conclude our letter segment? Anybody got any more letters over there?
Christy Lee
I do not.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
I do not.
Tom Griswold
I have to read this first. This is probably a little bit too rough to read. No, no, we're not going to read that.
Christy Lee
All right.
Tom Griswold
It does involve apparently an epic event while hunting.
Josh Arnold
Oh, you have some dude wipes there.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, precisely. That's. That's where it's going. A Dear Bob and Tom show. I want to invite you all again to our annual urine contest. Oh, okay. These are the guys.
Christy Lee
Urine contest.
Tom Griswold
These are the guys that put on adult diapers. And then they start at noon, and then they eat lunch and drink a bunch of beer and then they put on depends at 2. Oh, and then at 4 o' clock they weigh them.
Christy Lee
No, no.
Tom Griswold
And the winner gets a nice prize. I had suggested we try that in here. It was.
Josh Arnold
We got too close. The diapers were in the building.
Christy Lee
There's no way we're doing that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Went on way too long. We were doing that.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, we were doing it.
Christy Lee
Until we finally stood up to him and said, no, no, that is not.
Josh Arnold
We had a fair amount of listeners go, hey, that's not you. You guys.
Christy Lee
That isn't us.
Tom Griswold
I'd just be curious because with all the water you drink, Josh, I'm thinking you might be a winner if you're curious.
Josh Arnold
Maybe, you know, are you truly a winner at something like that?
Tom Griswold
You know something? I. I guess you're not, so. Well, we'll push forward here. Give me a preview of what's coming up in the world of sports. Oh, man.
Jeff Oskay
We have a new state record. We have the Cavaliers coming back, and we have a hacky sack talk.
Tom Griswold
And yesterday in the show, this is posted. Now, I ordinarily don't recommend stuff necessarily from this show, but we had a chance to interview the world record holder in the half court shooting, Dr. Buckets. Dr. Buckets. It was a delight talking to him. We've got it posted. This guy's going for another record. He has the record for the most. The most free throws in an hour. The most three pointers at the pro distance.
Christy Lee
Right.
Tom Griswold
In an hour. Right. And the most half court shots in an hour. And in the half court thing, he got almost exactly 33%.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah. He made 272 shots and 60 minutes. His free throws. He made 2,494 in one hour.
Christy Lee
Yeah, he said it was 94%.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
And then 1086 from the three point line.
Tom Griswold
And he's such a nice guy. He's in his late 30s. Right.
Christy Lee
He's a 37 and he's going for the 3.24 hours.
Josh Arnold
You know, something's up here, though.
Christy Lee
Why?
Josh Arnold
Because I saw a picture of his office and around his trash can, just crumbled paper. I don't know.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I've got a thing about that.
Christy Lee
Brian Martin Dr.
Tom Griswold
In the coffee room. I have certain things I have to heaven go in the waste basket before I can leave. And you gotta leave on a winter. But this guy was really nice and like you said, I think. Isn't he going for that half court May 31st?
Christy Lee
No, he's going for the three point.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah. 24 hour record.
Christy Lee
May 31st through June 1st.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, one every eight seconds, he said.
Christy Lee
Yep.
Tom Griswold
That's just amazing.
Christy Lee
We'll have to follow up on June 2nd.
Tom Griswold
And he, he played college hoops, played in Canada as a pro, and was offered a gig with the Washington Generals to take on the Globetrotters. Turned it down. That would have been a dream job for me playing in the Washington job.
Christy Lee
Not too late.
Tom Griswold
I think so I think I'm done. When we come back, we'll explore many other things. Happy to have you along with us and we certainly appreciate it. You can reach us with more mail at Bob and Tom. Bob and Tom.com Coming up, we have old school peeping Toms in the news. A something called a monster wolf robot and they can't make them fast enough and it involves a life and death issue. Pretty scary. We'll find out about those babies from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Show Announcer
Hey, thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning. Get a look at today's show on our YouTube channel.
Josh Arnold
Hey, it's the Bob and Tom Show. Thank you for being here with us. There's Christy Lee at the news desk.
Christy Lee
Hello.
Josh Arnold
Pat Godwin's there.
Pat Godwin
Hey, Josh.
Josh Arnold
Jeff Oskay.
Jeff Oskay
Hey, Josh.
Josh Arnold
There's Ace Cosby.
Jeff Oskay
Hello.
Josh Arnold
I am Josh Arnold, and we're all live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Think O'Reilly Auto Parts. For all your car care needs, get the parts and service you need fast from the professional parts people at O'Reilly Auto Parts. And there's Tom.
Tom Griswold
Well, thank you very much, Josh Arnold.
Josh Arnold
Quite welcome.
Tom Griswold
If you're just joining us, you've missed a couple of revelatory moments on the show, I think.
Christy Lee
Oh, like what?
Tom Griswold
Well, we. We learned that the. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 subtitle is what? Josh?
Josh Arnold
Turtles in time. Yes, and I haven't seen that one. Of course, I've seen Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to the secret of the ooze. But I have not seen Turtles in time. Let me know if I should watch Turtles in Time.
Christy Lee
What color was the ooze?
Josh Arnold
Green.
Tom Griswold
Ooh.
Josh Arnold
Now, it was radioactive fluid that became. That's how they became and we were
Tom Griswold
talking about it because of the song Tarzan Boy, which apparently appears on the cassette soundtrack to the. That movie.
Josh Arnold
Oh, to the third. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
It says we continue obscurity. Coming up. Speaking of things in threes, the Godfather is about to release the. The estate of Mario Puzo is going to be releasing a. Another Godfather novel. We'll have some interesting news about that. If you're a big fan of the. The books of the Godfather.
Christy Lee
Have you read those?
Tom Griswold
No.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Tom Griswold
I went. I saw the movie.
Jeff Oskay
Just one.
Josh Arnold
I mean, it's really just. I mean, there's the last Don. There's. There's some other things that are semi related, but the Godfather is essentially the movies Godfather and Godfather 2.
Christy Lee
And you enjoyed the book very much.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But the estate, they license the rights
Christy Lee
for another writer to come in.
Tom Griswold
And there's a. There's a new one on the way.
Josh Arnold
All right.
Tom Griswold
This time it's from the point of view of Connie. So we'll get to that. Coming up in the news. We're going to touch base a little bit with the sporting scene right now. Sitting For Chick McGee, it's Jeff Oskay.
Josh Arnold
Jeff.
Jeff Oskay
That's right. Hey, Josh, this one's for you. A Tennessee wildlife resource agency confirmed this week a new state record largemouth bass has officially been established after angler Darren Nunley reeled in a monster earlier this year. His fish weighed 15 pounds, 7 1/2 ounces and measured 27, 78 inches long, breaking the state record that stood for more than 11 years. He was using a jackhammer chatterbait lure of fishing.
Josh Arnold
Don't say that.
Jeff Oskay
The check.
Josh Arnold
The jackhammer is already 20 bucks, and now it's probably just gone up to 25.
Jeff Oskay
Yes, and he beat the old record by more than 7 ounces.
Tom Griswold
Where did he catch it? I didn't hear the.
Jeff Oskay
Down in Tennessee at the. Oh.
Tom Griswold
Do they mark a fish like that, Nick?
Jeff Oskay
A jack reservoir?
Josh Arnold
Oh, sure, yeah. Yeah, that's really popular.
Tom Griswold
After they weigh it, do they, like, put a little tag on it or something so somebody else finds it?
Josh Arnold
No, they won't tag it. They will test it. They'll. They'll swab it. They'll do all kinds of things. But usually they don't tag it and
Tom Griswold
they throw it back in.
Josh Arnold
Ideally, yeah, because now you can get. Let's say he wanted to get that mounted. They can do such great 3D printing with a fake bass that, no, you don't have to kill the bass anymore. And it looks just like the.
Tom Griswold
But will it still sing?
Josh Arnold
You can get that. That's an option. Yeah, for 50 bucks.
Tom Griswold
Because only the real one sing. I know. I'm not an idiot. I know that. Look at me like I'm some kind of moron. What's this fishing lure called again?
Josh Arnold
Oh, the jackhammer Chatterbait. Yeah, you can get there. You have baby jacks. And then they have the jackhammer as well. The baby jacks. That might actually be price. Price here.
Christy Lee
Does it jump up and down or.
Jeff Oskay
I think it moves.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, it just.
Tom Griswold
Ah.
Pat Godwin
Top of the water.
Josh Arnold
Right.
Pat Godwin
Top of the water.
Tom Griswold
No, to me, jackhammer bait sounds like something Epstein's talking about in the plane and the way to the island with a couple of cheerleaders.
Josh Arnold
Oh, he tells. He tells the cheerleaders. What's going to happen.
Jeff Oskay
James Harden scored a playoff best 30 points, helping the Cleveland Cavaliers come back from a nine point deficit late in regulation to beat the Detroit Pistons 117 to 113 and overtime to take a 3 to 2 lead and their Eastern Conference semifinal series. The Pistons led 103 to 94 with two minutes left. Cleveland then. Or, I'm sorry, the Pistons were then. Cleveland went on a 13 oh run and held Detroit scoreless for five minutes to win the game.
Tom Griswold
Go Detroit. I want to play the Detroit Pistons song again. Come on.
Jeff Oskay
And Josh. National Hockey League playoffs. Colorado 4, Minnesota 3.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Yeah. They're. They're. They're poor. Wild. I was rooting for Minnesota.
Tom Griswold
Oh, why is that?
Josh Arnold
I like them better as a team.
Christy Lee
They have nicer uniforms.
Josh Arnold
Yes, I like those. I like the green.
Jeff Oskay
And the hacky sack is making a comeback with Gen Z. According to the New York Times, high school students around the country are freshly enthusiastic about the crocheted bean bags, technically called foot bags, since hacky sack is a brand name.
Tom Griswold
Did you know that?
Christy Lee
Yeah, I did.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, but I. Yeah, but Hacky sacks way better than football.
Christy Lee
Yeah, that sounds terrible.
Tom Griswold
Frisbee golf.
Jeff Oskay
Okay, let's be serious this time around. Hacky sack mania appears to have taken off in the Northeast before spreading nationally with the help of social media online, Hacky sack has become an elaborate inside joke. With hundreds of accounts cheekily treating the game as a varsity sport. They post rankings and announce when students commit to fictional hacky sack Division one college.
Christy Lee
Oh, that's funny.
Tom Griswold
Don't you associate hacky sacks with kind of the parking lot at a Grateful Dead concert and smoking pot?
Christy Lee
Absolutely.
Josh Arnold
I love the Hacky sacks.
Tom Griswold
So this is, well, case closed.
Josh Arnold
But I mean, my brothers and I had one. Everybody at school had one.
Jeff Oskay
Did you have the crocheted or did you have the leather?
Josh Arnold
We had like a pleather, I think. Yeah. Because I remember it didn't last long, but. Yeah, everybody at school had different kinds.
Tom Griswold
So this is sober hacky sacking.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah. I mean, I was like in fifth grade.
Josh Arnold
It's pretty great for hand, eye, foot coordination.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Pat Godwin
You just kick it to yourself or
Josh Arnold
you can, you can. And then you can go around in a circle. And a lot of hockey players do it before game and just to get all their.
Jeff Oskay
Were you good?
Josh Arnold
No, not, not. I mean, I could do the occasional knee to the foot. To the knee, but it was always sort of an accident.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. The weird thing is I can do that with my balls now as you age, it's why older folks don't. Older dudes don't. Hacky sack. You might.
Jeff Oskay
Is that why you go with the boxer brief to hold those?
Tom Griswold
Might get the wrong. Wrong. Wrong sack. The. The hacky sack is like a little mini bean bag.
Christy Lee
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
But it's. Yeah. I. And I just had recently observed that. Wow, look at all these kids doing that. Wow. And it's. But now it's. It's official.
Josh Arnold
Your girls have them.
Tom Griswold
Not yet. This. I noticed a bunch of the high school got kids doing it when I was picking up my girls at school.
Jeff Oskay
It's a lot of pressure when you're in the hacky sack circle and everyone's doing real good. It's like, oh, you almost don't want them to kick it to you because you don't want to be the one to mess it up.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. I think the main difference now between. Back in the day, the primary difference, this is any. Anyone else I'm sure would observe this, instead of hitting joints, they're hitting vape pens. So it just shows that the, The. The contemporary difference.
Jeff Oskay
Have you ever heard of the Penjamin Franklin? It's a actual vape marijuana dispenser pen called the Penjamin Franklin, and it's a marijuana pen that has stolen Benjamin Franklin's name.
Tom Griswold
And is there something Franklin esque about it?
Jeff Oskay
No, they just call it. But the kids will be like, do you want to hit the Penjamin?
Christy Lee
Ah.
Jeff Oskay
I was like, oh, early to bed
Josh Arnold
and early to wake and bake makes a man.
Tom Griswold
This was a failure and lucky to get a gig doing anything.
Jeff Oskay
I hope that's on the packaging.
Tom Griswold
Do they at least have like a Franklin type of.
Jeff Oskay
I. I don't know. I just had somebody was like, you want to hit the Benjamin? I go, the Benjamin they go, yeah, the Benjamin Franklin. And I looked it up, and it's an actual vape brand.
Josh Arnold
Okay. Because a lot of people that, like, they would nickname their bongs.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
So it's not that this is an actual brand. Yeah. Nice.
Tom Griswold
Hmm.
Josh Arnold
Did you have a nickname for a bong ever?
Jeff Oskay
Did you?
Josh Arnold
No, no, But, I mean, I knew friends who.
Tom Griswold
Did. You ever own one, Josh?
Josh Arnold
I never owned it.
Tom Griswold
I didn't know you. Yeah, I have one.
Jeff Oskay
I have a glass one. Actually, a listener here blew it for me and sent it to me.
Christy Lee
Oh, nice.
Jeff Oskay
It's about this tall and it's radio.
Tom Griswold
How tall is this tall?
Jeff Oskay
You're right. It's about a foot tall. And it's actually a Game of Thrones. It looks like a. An egg. One of the eggs from Game of Thrones and Dragon egg.
Tom Griswold
There was a lot of nudity in that show. For a second, I was gonna say it looks like the king's.
Pat Godwin
Someone blew it.
Josh Arnold
So you wouldn't call it, like, the Peter Danklidge, because now I am Game of Thrones.
Pat Godwin
Is that what pot is? Dank?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, wow. Josh, you're very well done.
Jeff Oskay
From now on, I'm hitting the Peter Danklage and the Penjamin, the Benjamin Franklin.
Tom Griswold
I'm going to look it up and see what if they've got an interesting logo on it, if they've gone to any trouble to do it. Right. What else is coming up in sports?
Jeff Oskay
Oh, that's it.
Christy Lee
Oh, no. World record today. All right.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I'll try to dig one up here.
Jeff Oskay
Well, I guess it was a state record.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay, but after yesterday, the basketball again. If you missed yesterday's show, man, you
Jeff Oskay
can't beat Dr. Buckets.
Tom Griswold
We talked to Dr. Buckets. Great guy. He's a gym teacher in Maine.
Christy Lee
Hello, Ryan.
Josh Arnold
I can't decide if I should play the chick role or not.
Tom Griswold
Oh, you mean to be. Oh, the guy was so nice and so.
Josh Arnold
I know. That's why I can't decide.
Tom Griswold
And again, shooting 33% from half court for an hour.
Josh Arnold
I really like the guy and I'm impressed by him, but comedically, somebody's got to go. Are you kidding me?
Tom Griswold
He's gonna do. What is it, the three pointer marathon for 24 hours?
Christy Lee
Correct.
Tom Griswold
He's gonna go for the world record in a couple weeks. I don't think I could stand up and move my arm that much for 24 hours. Even I couldn't do that with layups.
Christy Lee
The average is hitting a shot every eight seconds.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, that's crazy.
Josh Arnold
Your legs are in it, too. I don't know how he's not gonna be so sore. Well, he practices all the time.
Tom Griswold
Well, anyway, we have an interview with him that we've posted. It's really funny. I would highly recommend it. Now, let's move forward here. Coming up in the news, as mentioned, we do have some interesting stuff about old school peeping Toms in the news. And monster wolf robots, they can't make them fast enough.
Josh Arnold
Well, just the name alone makes me want one.
Tom Griswold
And they're involved in a particular thing that involves death.
Josh Arnold
Geez.
Tom Griswold
For real. So we'll get to that coming up. Right now, I want to talk about Brickhouse Nutrition. The physicians at Brickhouse Nutrition would like to help you lose some weight.

Josh Arnold
There's Christy Lee at the news desk.
Tom Griswold
Oh, hello.
Josh Arnold
Hi, Pat Godwin's there.
Pat Godwin
I didn't see you there. You're sneaking up on me.
Josh Arnold
I have a proposition for you, Pat. In just a second. There's Jeff Oskay.
Jeff Oskay
Hey, Pat.
Josh Arnold
There's Ace Cosby. Hello. I'm Josh Arnold. And Tom, you're also invited to this. Anybody who would like to go, let's go to a production. Let's start going to plays.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Josh Arnold
And anytime they do that thing where the first character walks out on stage and then turns to the audience, oh, I didn't see you there. We all just go, boo.
Pat Godwin
You know how many times I've seen that in my life?
Josh Arnold
Unless you're Thornton Wilder.
Pat Godwin
Always. Children. Children's theater.
Tom Griswold
You'd see that.
Josh Arnold
Yes, but Our Town. And that's it. No more. No other plays can do that.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I didn't see. It's sort of the adult version of peekaboo. Right, Right.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I did.
Tom Griswold
Isn't. Isn't playing peekaboo great with a little kid? Little baby.
Josh Arnold
How overd. Yeah. Yes.
Tom Griswold
It's like, then they finally realize, and that's the end. It's over.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. They get object permanence. And then they go, okay, yeah, fine.
Tom Griswold
I don't think. I know you're there. Then. Then you do the pull. Then you do the pull the thumb off trick. That holds them for a while.
Josh Arnold
I'm telling you, my grandpa was so good at that. That amazed me. At the age of 16, I couldn't believe how good he was.
Jeff Oskay
Tom's really good.
Josh Arnold
Yes. Tom's got a real. Yeah, well, my thumb was never. This is not a good shape. It just clearly doesn't match my other fingers.
Tom Griswold
I'm not sure I can do it.
Pat Godwin
That is really good.
Josh Arnold
It's pretty good.
Tom Griswold
It is the dumbest trick. Honor.
Christy Lee
Yeah, but I'm mystified. I've never seen that before.
Tom Griswold
The pulling off the tip of your thumb.
Christy Lee
Joe.
Pat Godwin
No, no, no.
Tom Griswold
Where have you been?
Josh Arnold
You just.
Al Jackson
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
You're a terrible version, but.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
But I've got your nose. Never.
Christy Lee
I got your nose. I fell for that.
Josh Arnold
I never did. I was like, what? That's clearly your thumb, sir.
Tom Griswold
I like that. I did like the bachelor uncle that pulled the half dollar from behind your ear.
Josh Arnold
Oh, you had a very different bachelor uncle.
Pat Godwin
You got your nose, but it wasn't your nose.
Tom Griswold
Okay. I'm so sorry. Coming up in the news, we do have old fashioned pervs.
Christy Lee
My bachelor uncle pulled earrings from the back of my ear. Uncle Klem.
Josh Arnold
I mean, was he actually removing your earring?
Christy Lee
No, he Was gay earrings instead.
Josh Arnold
You never.
Tom Griswold
This is fast.
Josh Arnold
There's a lot of things going on here that are interesting, but one thing is really I've. Is.
Tom Griswold
Was.
Josh Arnold
He's a great uncle, first and only gay guy named Clem.
Christy Lee
Maybe he was my grandmother's brother. Yes. Yeah. So he was my great uncle.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
But yeah, he.
Josh Arnold
I bet he was wonderful though.
Christy Lee
And he was. He was a haberdasher, so he had great hats. And he passed away when I was probably 12. 11 or 12 years old.
Josh Arnold
Was he out?
Pat Godwin
Was he out at that time?
Christy Lee
Well, back then, you know, he would have parties upstairs in his home that were private. Yeah. But my aunt was telling me a story just the other night about how he came out to California to visit her. And he was dressed in copper satin hot pants and a gold silk shirt and long gloves and boots. And they went to the mall shopping and she was in high school and her girlfriend from high school had to wait on them and she was, you know, it was very awkward situation.
Josh Arnold
Did he kept asking people where Rock Hudson's house was?
Christy Lee
No, but she did pick out some wonderful outfits for her.
Josh Arnold
Oh, how nice.
Christy Lee
Yeah, it turned out well.
Tom Griswold
He's like a good guy.
Christy Lee
Yeah, Uncle Clem was a great guy. He. He was wonderful. I barely remember him, but I do remember when he passed away, a lot of the ladies in the family were going after all of his jewelry and his hats.
Jeff Oskay
I get the boas,
Josh Arnold
I get the butt plugs.
Christy Lee
But you're right, there are. Clem is a very unusual name for.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, that's my grandfather's name.
Christy Lee
Is that your grandfather's name? They would have been about the same age.
Josh Arnold
Is it short for anything?
Christy Lee
I don't think so.
Pat Godwin
Clement.
Christy Lee
Clement.
Pat Godwin
My grandfather's name is.
Christy Lee
Maybe it's Clem's first name too. I don't know.
Tom Griswold
Clemens. Very distinguished. Very, very Supreme Court like. Christy Lee is at the news desk. What do you got over there?
Christy Lee
A Japanese company that builds robotic monster wolves says demand is surging as Japan deals with a record number of deadly bear attacks.
Josh Arnold
I gotta look at one of these.
Christy Lee
The animatronic wolves feature flashing red eyes, artificial fur and loud howling sounds designed to scare wildlife away. The manufacturer, Otasiaki, says it has a three month waiting list for the roughly four thousand dollar devices. It's also developing a portable version for hikers, anglers and school children.
Josh Arnold
They look insane.
Tom Griswold
This is designed to keep bears away.
Christy Lee
Right. And they are actually putting it on wheels now to chase animals or patrol specific paths if you want the upgrade.
Tom Griswold
Wow. I'M kind of surprised they didn't go with a Godzilla. Whoa.
Christy Lee
That is a scary wolf.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. It looks like a giant wolf with glowing red eyes.
Josh Arnold
Looks like the thing. One of those things that spirit Halloween where you have to step on the circle.
Christy Lee
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
I would think one of those $200 spirit Halloween things would work just as well as this $4,000 robot.
Tom Griswold
I don't know.
Christy Lee
I wonder if it's remote control. Like motion detected.
Jeff Oskay
Right.
Christy Lee
If a bear comes near it, it'll.
Josh Arnold
So are the bears killing cattle or are they going after.
Pat Godwin
No, no.
Tom Griswold
They've killed a dozen people.
Josh Arnold
Bears in Japan.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Wow.
Tom Griswold
It's been a real big problem lately. And it seems like we get a bear story almost every day here. We have. We had two this week out of Gatlinburg.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Where, you know, bears just. They're. Hey, the food's here.
Christy Lee
Well, yeah. They're out of hibernation. The cubs are out. They're having fun.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. They're stretching their legs.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
With those giant skeletons they sell at Home Depot at Halloween. Would they.
Christy Lee
They scare people? I don't know.
Tom Griswold
Do they scare? I guess the bears wouldn't care.
Josh Arnold
No. And that's why they didn't go with Godzilla, Tom. Is because they would want something that the bears knew were sort of a natural predator.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I guess. If they. I don't just. That'd be funnier if it was a big Godzilla with red eyes. Be more kind of in line with my knowledge of Japanese culture. Wow. That. They're pretty scary. And I guess I hope they're working for them.
Christy Lee
Yeah, well, it seems to be. If they're on a wait list, band camps are cropping up for adults.
Tom Griswold
Pat.
Pat Godwin
All right, I'm going.
Christy Lee
There are now a variety of summer music programs across the United States, ranging from electronic folk, rock and roll, and jazz to chamber and even opera. For many adults, Band Camp offers a way to relive the nostalgic musical experience of their youth and make new social connections. Lee Hertz, who directs Band Camp for adult musicians at Susquehanna University, told the AP that attendees include retirees, full time professionals, mothers, even people who, quote, sold their tuba for a couch in college so they could have a couch. And 20 years later, they're like, I need a tuba again.
Tom Griswold
By the way, if you've priced a tuba lately, you can get a quite a nice couch.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Trumpets are 1300 bucks, so I don't know what a tuba is. There's a lot more metal.
Tom Griswold
Real pricey.
Christy Lee
Really?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but. Yeah, but this is really fun. And it's so odd that. Pat, you mentioned that you are indeed going to a band camp.
Pat Godwin
I'm talking about it.
Tom Griswold
I want to go.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
This summer.
Pat Godwin
I'm looking for a sponsor.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
I'd like to go to Tommy Emanuels in Austin. Yeah. In August.
Jeff Oskay
Cool.
Tom Griswold
And Tommy is one of the greatest guitar players in the world. He's been in our studio several times. My favorite. Yeah, he's a great guy. Just a super nice guy. And I. I was mentioning the day and I got confused. There's a famous version of the Chick's Not Here. Almond Brothers song. Little Martha Mac McInally does it it by himself. Usually a twin. Twin guitar piece. And Tommy Emanuels, he's famous for, among other things, this version of. See if you recognize this song.
Josh Arnold
I love this. Can you play this, Pat?
Pat Godwin
I can play.
Al Jackson
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
I'll play it for you when this is done.
Josh Arnold
I've always wanted somebody to do Classical Gas with their gas.
Tom Griswold
Really?
Pat Godwin
My joke can't be done yet.
Tom Griswold
You don't want to hear. You don't want to hear.
Josh Arnold
I don't like that version.
Christy Lee
I don't either. Whose version is.
Josh Arnold
Who rocked it up like that?
Tom Griswold
Tommy Emanuel. Okay. I'm sure.
Christy Lee
All right.
Pat Godwin
You have a version of Classical Gas. Yes.
Josh Arnold
Oh, that's good. Yeah.
Pat Godwin
See a little Beethoven in the armpit farm.
Tom Griswold
Classical Gas was. Was made famous by the head writer of the Smothers Brothers Show.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
It's a great song, Christy. What's brown and sits on a piano bench?
Christy Lee
I don't know what?
Josh Arnold
Beethoven's last movement.
Tom Griswold
There it goes.
Pat Godwin
Or was it the turd movement?
Tom Griswold
That's a hell of a segment for you.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I'm sorry. We can talk more about the head writer of the Smothers Brothers. We can go back to haunted.
Tom Griswold
That was a hint.
Josh Arnold
We know that Classical Gas was a hit.
Tom Griswold
Classical Gas was a hit.
Christy Lee
Yeah. That was from the head writer of the Smothers Brothers.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Nobody needs to know that.
Tom Griswold
That's an interesting fact. I think that's better, more interesting than the. The subtitle of Teenage mutant Ninja Turtles 3 the movie.
Josh Arnold
I wasn't trying to teach anybody anything. I just said it.
Christy Lee
I guess I would bet more people know that than they knew the head writer of the Smothers Brothers Show.
Tom Griswold
This was the hit version.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Mason Williams.
Tom Griswold
Mason Williams.
Josh Arnold
Anson Williams.
Tom Griswold
Yes. Friend of Steve Martin. Right?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
It's beautiful.
Josh Arnold
You know this one? You might. When it kicks in, it's really.
Tom Griswold
It kicks in in a minute. There's a big orchestra no.
Christy Lee
Never heard this, huh?
Jeff Oskay
I don't think so.
Josh Arnold
What do you think?
Tom Griswold
Never mind. I. I try to educate the film.
Josh Arnold
Just go eat your house on his
Tom Griswold
plea hot dogs and smoke your smoke your weed.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, speaking of the weed smoke, I mentioned Benjamin Franklin.
Tom Griswold
It's a vape thing called Penjamin Franklin. Yes.
Jeff Oskay
There are some other names that another stoner here at work reminded me of. There's the John F. Kennedy.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yes.
Jeff Oskay
There's the Penny G, the Jimi Pendricks, the Pen Shapiro, and the Obi Wan Pinobi.
Christy Lee
Are they made by the same company?
Jeff Oskay
No, it's just what kids call it.
Tom Griswold
Oh, these are all vape pens. But the pen, the one you mentioned,
Jeff Oskay
the penchipen, is actually a brand and
Tom Griswold
we saw the logo and it's a poor rendition of Benjamin Franklin.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, is it?
Tom Griswold
It looks like a tumor on his head. And that's apparently smoke, which I thought
Josh Arnold
was befitting, because to me it looked like something a stoner would scribble in his notebook. Well, instead of listening to class.
Christy Lee
There you go.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's like a frizzy haired Ben Franklin. That's pretty funny with his eyes all blurry.
Josh Arnold
Well, yeah, his glasses are gone because he's bifocal gun.
Tom Griswold
What's the thing on top of his head?
Christy Lee
That's what I was thinking.
Tom Griswold
Oh, oh, okay.
Jeff Oskay
That's what you put in your mouth.
Josh Arnold
It's like the cigarillo part.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it looks like a. It looks like a half crushed fez. Okay. All right, well, what's coming up, Christy Lee?
Josh Arnold
Pen Shapiro.
Christy Lee
Well, we have time to do it.
Tom Griswold
That's.
Josh Arnold
That's my favorite.
Pat Godwin
I want to know.
Josh Arnold
Venn diagram.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Well, yeah, no kidding. Yeah. Stoner on the right. I wonder what he would think of that if you knew that. But that. Is that an actual brand?
Jeff Oskay
No, that's just what the kids.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, he might have a case on his hands. I don't know. I'm not sure how that works. If you can trademark Pen Shapiro. What's coming up, Christy Lee?
Christy Lee
Coming up, we have a new Godfather novel. We have a bachelorette party that was interrupted by someone. Halley's comet is in the news. And more from space.
Tom Griswold
And it is Halley's. All these years I've heard Haley's comet.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I've been a Haley's guy.
Jeff Oskay
How about that?
Tom Griswold
It's Halley's.
Josh Arnold
Halley's. All right.
Tom Griswold
You want to go back to Halo?
Jeff Oskay
Oh, I'm keeping it. Haley. So I don't care.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, we grew up with I'm still
Jeff Oskay
calling it the Gulf of Mexico.
Josh Arnold
So don't.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, well, they, they, interestingly enough, they want to change it from Halle's comment to something else.
Josh Arnold
Really?
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
Boy, I hope it's along the lines of what you just said.
Tom Griswold
We'll find out when we return to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

Josh Arnold
Welcome back to the Bob and Tom show, live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Rusty Lee's at the news desk. Hi, there's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Jeff.
Josh Arnold
Oscar is there.
Jeff Oskay
Yes, sir.
Josh Arnold
And next to him, Mr. Ace Cosby. Hey, Josh. I am Josh Arnold. And there's Tom Griswold.
Tom Griswold
I'm going to get something here somewhat. I'll take the long road here. I was talking to my niece who's a video editor, among other things, and she was in England and she was saying that that particular day she had to go edit something. But, but the way they edit things now is a little different. And then this came up. We were in a discussion we were having. They know that people are watching television, holding a phone, and they're sort of half paying attention. So now if you certain things on TV now, the dialogue will reset up what they were talking about 15 minutes earlier on the show, which is what we do all the time in radio because we're revisiting a topic. But if you, if you pay close attention, sometimes you'll be, you'll be thinking, wait a minute, why are they saying this all over again? I know that from. But it's because people are doing two things at the same time, much like people driving.
Josh Arnold
Sure.
Tom Griswold
In this case, I want to go back to a topic we were discussing earlier, which is band camp.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
For adults, because there was some confusion in the room during the break. We were talking about it, what exactly band camp is. And this is an opportunity for people that are no longer in high school or college to kind of revisit their, the fun camaraderie they had in the band. Yeah.
Christy Lee
And revisit what they, the instrument they played. A lot of people don't play if you Played the trumpet or the tuba or whatever. A lot of those people don't. You don't play that as an adult, really, sitting in your room.
Josh Arnold
So are they. Is it all a trumpet camp? And then if you play drums, you go to a drum camp or do you.
Tom Griswold
Multiple instruments.
Christy Lee
Multiple. And then I bet they put a band together at the end, maybe, and do a production. I would think.
Josh Arnold
You would think, but they're all over.
Tom Griswold
But during this discussion, you blurted out, well, I don't.
Josh Arnold
I'm not interested in this band camp thing. For me, that's just for nerds and losers. I remember when I was in show choir camp, we would really make fun of those kids.
Tom Griswold
So you really were in a show choir camp?
Josh Arnold
One year for a week in Orlando. I went to the show choir camps of America. Yeah, that's right. Fine organization that would take kids from show choir camps all across the country. And. And we'd all go down to the Orlando, and we performed in front of the magic. The Cinderella's castle there in the magic kingdom.
Christy Lee
That sounds fun.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Christy Lee
And you got to meet girls from others.
Josh Arnold
But I was gonna see so many hot girls.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. See, that's the thing. The. The band camp movies and whatever you. That's the whole thing was those are the kids that are really having fun.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, we had a blast because we also got to go to the parks when we weren't rehearsing. That was part of the package deal.
Tom Griswold
And that's great.
Josh Arnold
So that was great. And. Yeah, it was.
Christy Lee
Your odds were in your favor.
Tom Griswold
You know what? These. These adult. These adult band camps I did. I don't know if you kept reading, but they're so realistic that when you're at band camp, they bring in the jocks from high school to beat you up. So. Yeah, just. Yeah. So they can call you nerds and pound you.
Josh Arnold
You know, I was kind of the nerd of the show choir camp, only because I was there for. I was there for the fun and the girls, and I wasn't as hardcore into the. Learning the new choreography and stuff. And so they didn't. Yeah, some of the. Because I wasn't with that. What they did was you went there, and then you. You had to audition within the camp. So I had to do a solo song, which I. I failed. I bombed him. Instrumental. So I had been practicing one of my favorite songs, who knows how long I loved you. And I've been practicing and practicing, and I pretty much nailed it. And I had my teacher at school, she was like, that's great. You're gonna kill it. And I go. And I had been practicing in a completely different key than apparently the song is in, because when the pianist there's had the sheet music, I could not hit whatever register they were playing in. Does that make sense to you? God, when I.
Pat Godwin
Absolutely.
Josh Arnold
And so finally, I had to do it acapella.
Tom Griswold
Like an alfalfa moment.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Tom Griswold
I'm in the mood for love.
Josh Arnold
Exactly right.
Pat Godwin
Original is an F. And it's a little high.
Josh Arnold
Okay. Yeah, it's too high for me.
Tom Griswold
Well, Josh, you're not aware of this, but I was aware of this story. And we are about to join on the phone the woman that failed your audition. No.
Josh Arnold
So I didn't get, like, a. A big. And so they. What they do is then they put you in groups away from your own. Like, because I went with six other people from my show choir, but I was pretty much with strangers then because they take. You know, and so I was like, an extra. Like. And I'd be in the background for. And they were all Disney songs that we had to do. So I just can't wait to be king.
Tom Griswold
You just do the chorus and throw your arm down.
Josh Arnold
Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jeff Oskay
What was your dad's expression on his face when you said, dad, I want to go to show choir camp Once
Tom Griswold
again, your dad, Vietnam, two tours of duty in Nam, combat veteran Badass Larry.
Josh Arnold
That said he loved, like, musicals and things.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, really?
Josh Arnold
He was very supportive, and he knew all. He also knew.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
But he goes, we don't have the money. We don't have. You can't go. I'm sorry. We just simply can't afford it. And listen to this. The other parents knew that I was interested in going in the show choir, and they all chipped in, like, 200 bucks. Whoa. Like, for me to go. It was like, one of the.
Jeff Oskay
And then fail.
Christy Lee
So sweet.
Tom Griswold
I'm sure they were. Now you have someone else besides your parents to say, we're disappointed.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. I disappointed 12 families.
Jeff Oskay
And so, like, you weren't taking it as serious as you should while you were. They, like, like, hey, Josh, we noticed you missed the Spirit fingers session. What were you doing? You aren't taking these jazz hands. I'm not seeing the jazz in the hands.
Pat Godwin
Was it like, Pitch Perfect? The movies, show choir
Jeff Oskay
that.
Josh Arnold
With. I don't remember if in Pitch Perfect they dance.
Tom Griswold
Oh, they dance.
Josh Arnold
Okay. I only saw, like, the cop scene or whatever. I didn't see all of Pitch Perfect, but. But, yeah, man. I mean, it was fun, but I. There Was there always was a little part of my dad that was like, you know, we have four boys, odds are. And it's probably that one.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I saw him with the inline skates and the tight shorts.
Josh Arnold
Oh, well, there were plenty of jokes flying. Yes, but.
Tom Griswold
But this. This is what this adult band camp thing it's all about. Because people that did this stuff like that had so much fun.
Christy Lee
Do you think there's adult show choir camp?
Tom Griswold
I'm wondering. I bet there is. I bet there's something similar, probably. Why wouldn't there?
Jeff Oskay
I heard, Tom, that you were holding out for DJ camp. Oh, you just show up with a laptop. That's a lot.
Tom Griswold
Oh, you mean like dj, like music dj?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that'd be.
Josh Arnold
I bet there's a radio camp.
Christy Lee
Oh, there is.
Pat Godwin
Oh, there's. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Boot camp radio.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Ham radio.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Don't go knocking the ham people. I get letters every time you do that.
Jeff Oskay
I know. I'm gonna have Drew Terry up my ass after the show.
Tom Griswold
Hey, I'm radio. Radio is cool. I mean, you got your Joe Walsh. Never mind. Yeah. The radio camp I've done. I've spoken at those things.
Josh Arnold
Oh, okay.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, that's great.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. That's not what camp. Kind of nerdy. The radio. Because you've got a bunch of guys that. And ladies that walk around going. They all talk like they're, you know, the old boss jocks put their hand out. Hey.
Josh Arnold
Hi, Josh. Oh, they just can't help themselves.
Tom Griswold
It's. Oh, God.
Pat Godwin
A lot of that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
I heard Wolfman Jack talking to. It's in the movie American Graffiti. There are scenes where he's just talking, and it's not. He's not Wolf manning it up. You can still tell it's Wolfman, but he's. It's always fascinating to hear that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Wolfman Jack. I've met him a couple times, and my favorite Wolfman story is we were at. I think it was the one in Orlando, and Bob and I were down there hosting. I. And for some reason, I forget, it was sort of a cafeteria or like a buffet thing after one of the shows, and I was standing next to Wolfman Jack, and I will never forget this. He's holding a tray, and he was gigantic at that point. This was like a year before he died. He got huge, and he was all black, and he was wearing a cape, and he had that hat with the dingleberries on it, whatever they're called. But it's.
Josh Arnold
That's exactly who you want him to be.
Tom Griswold
But It's. You're in a building full of radio geeks and it's Wolfman Jack. Yeah, I mean, it's like. It's Wolfman Jack. Everyone loves Wolfman Jack. So we're in line at this cafeteria thing and he's holding a tray with, I might point out, an inordinate amount of food. And I'm not joking. He was smoking a non filter cigarette while holding a tray. So it was either a Lucky or a Camel. I'm guessing.
Christy Lee
In line.
Tom Griswold
In line. So awesome.
Christy Lee
Oh, my.
Tom Griswold
But again, it's Wolf Man.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And everybody that I don't know, they just blurt out when they see him. Wolf Man.
Josh Arnold
So did he wolf man it up or did he go, hey, how are you?
Tom Griswold
He was cool.
Josh Arnold
I know, but.
Tom Griswold
Yes. Yeah. No, no, he. He. You know, he'd talk a little bit, but even his normal voice was great.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, you could tell it was still him.
Tom Griswold
But then he would every once in a while, throw in a little bit of the wall. Wolfman. Yeah. If you're not familiar with Wolfman Jack, obviously he plays himself on American Graffiti.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. There's a clap for the wolf man.
Josh Arnold
Oh, guess who? Yeah, that's a good one.
Tom Griswold
There's a bunch of videos of the. The. He hosted a rock show.
Josh Arnold
They gotta make a movie. They have to do a bio. I mean, because he broadcast out of Mexico and.
Christy Lee
Yeah, and he hosted Midnight Special for years in the 70s, but he had that.
Tom Griswold
Had that great voice.
Josh Arnold
Half the population thought he was a black guy. Yeah, there's like a really interesting.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah, cool stuff. But again, at the cafeteria, smoking a cool. Carrying a tray.
Jeff Oskay
Man, a cape is a bold choice.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, man, that's the thing.
Tom Griswold
He's Wolfman Jack. We've discussed capes before. Who else could pull that off?
Josh Arnold
No, right.
Christy Lee
I think you have confidence you can pull it off.
Josh Arnold
That's the key. You have to have some kind of personality.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Could you do a cape, Josh?
Josh Arnold
I don't think so.
Christy Lee
I love capes.
Tom Griswold
I'll tell you what, Christy. Carb day, why don't you and your husband show up and have Andy wear a cape and get back to me. Get back to me.
Christy Lee
Andy's not wearing a cape.
Tom Griswold
I know, because I. I wouldn't. I couldn't pull it off either.
Christy Lee
Andy's not a cape guy.
Tom Griswold
You've got to be.
Christy Lee
Yeah, well, there are.
Josh Arnold
You're gonna see checkered flag capes, probably.
Tom Griswold
That would be cool.
Josh Arnold
But what.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Where can you wear a cape where people would really have to question, like, oh, that guy's trying to pull off a cape.
Tom Griswold
Cape?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Gay bath house.
Josh Arnold
I don't know.
Jeff Oskay
Your dad wore capes, right?
Pat Godwin
Yeah. He didn't pull it off, did he? Cousin's wedding.
Jeff Oskay
Did he have multiple capes or just one?
Pat Godwin
Just the one, because it was made for, like, it was a part of a costume, but he wore it out. One time at my cousin's wedding, she sent me photos. I showed Josh. I think I showed you.
Tom Griswold
I like it, but that's a mistake. You don't want to draw attention away from the bride at a wedding.
Josh Arnold
Oh, sure, yeah. That's a big mistake.
Tom Griswold
Oh, look, look. There's Pat's dad with a purple cape on.
Christy Lee
No, I think you could wear. I should shut up.
Josh Arnold
It would have been worse.
Christy Lee
I think it would be cool to wear a very nice looking cape over a tuxedo at an event, like a high class event.
Tom Griswold
You could do it if you were a movie star. Elton John could pull it off.
Josh Arnold
Would cape himself in like a fur coat.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
And walk around kind of with a fur coat like that.
Tom Griswold
But I told you, one of the coolest things I ever saw in my life. I was at the airport and I saw this group of gents walking my way. And in the middle was Duke Ellington. And he had a beautiful overcoat on, but his arms weren't in the sleeves.
Christy Lee
That's a cool way to wear it. Yeah, absolutely.
Tom Griswold
I mean, it was like Superman was walking by. And of course, Duke Ellington. Perfectly groomed, even as a kid.
Jeff Oskay
Did he have a cane, like one of the.
Tom Griswold
I don't remember. I don't think so. He might have walking. All I know is I was. I. Oh, my God, that's Duke Ellington.
Jeff Oskay
How cool.
Tom Griswold
And that was, in effect, kind of a cape made out of a.
Christy Lee
Would it have to be a full length cape or could you do a short cape?
Jeff Oskay
I think a lady could.
Josh Arnold
A lady could do the short cape.
Christy Lee
Yeah, but a guy.
Josh Arnold
Couldn't the Sherlock Holmes wear a cape? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Christy Lee
Vampires wear capes. They're cool.
Jeff Oskay
Like, where do you. Is there a Capes R Us that you can.
Josh Arnold
I don't know. I don't know if you could go online.
Christy Lee
Oh, you can buy a cape. I can buy you.
Josh Arnold
Yes. But I want to go. Really?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Where, where, where, Pat?
Pat Godwin
Cape Town. But you can't go there.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah, yeah. That's a long haul. Yeah, yeah.
Josh Arnold
I don't know if there's a capery or.
Christy Lee
Oh, I like that word.
Tom Griswold
Well, we're. We're going to move forward Coming up, we have another attire thing in the news. Have you ever heard of the Sombrero Galaxy?
Josh Arnold
No.
Tom Griswold
It's a big thing and it's in the news. And we'll find out why it's called the Sombrero galaxy. From the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, this is the Bob and Tom Show.
Show Announcer

I'm raring to go.
Josh Arnold
There's Jeff Oskay. Yes, Ace Cosby's there. Hello, I'm Josh Arnold and there's Tom.
Tom Griswold
We were talking about capes. Who can wear one? I bet your Uncle Clem could have worn one.
Christy Lee
Oh, gosh, yes. Probably had one.
Tom Griswold
Okay, very good. Oh, Christy Lee is at the news says we haven't heard any songs from you today. Pat, ready to go.
Christy Lee
Do you have a cape song?
Pat Godwin
No.
Christy Lee
I did look up cape capes. A lot of the capes are cosplay kind of capes, like medieval. There was the fur lined or the fur collared one. Not a lot of serious everyday capes, if you will.
Josh Arnold
My grandmother had a cape that she would wear to the theater, the movies, because it was always chilly in there.
Christy Lee
I have three capes, but they're short for winter, you know, kind of a fall.
Josh Arnold
But it's nice. So they're practical.
Tom Griswold
It's not just showy.
Josh Arnold
Right.
Christy Lee
Practical. Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Does Andy ever go just put on the cape?
Pat Godwin
No, that'd be a cool look.
Jeff Oskay
Only cape and heels.
Tom Griswold
Cape on, cape off. Have you noticed how a lot of the stuff that Jeff asked really tells more about him? Well, Patty, you have a song for us. I want to point something out. Your dry bar special is being. Can you announce it now?
Pat Godwin
I think so. First week of June.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, first week of June coming. Right.
Josh Arnold
That's a. That's blockbuster season. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Pat Godwin
We drop in the summer.
Tom Griswold
Well, good. We'll look forward to it. And we'll make sure to tell everybody when it's out there floating around in the ether. So you can see Pat's live show from a year more than a year ago.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, year and three months.
Tom Griswold
But itself, it's finally being released. Well, what have you got for us right now?
Pat Godwin
Well, I have 20 things on this iPad that I use as a monitor. I put all my lyrics on number 11. No, no, no. I'm gonna. Oh, wait a minute. One through 20. You want 11?
Josh Arnold
Yes, please. All right.
Pat Godwin
Karaoke night.
Christy Lee
All right.
Josh Arnold
All right, here we go.
Pat Godwin
Are you ready?
Christy Lee
Yes.
Pat Godwin
What could ruin such a pleasant scene? What's more annoying than a drunk Marine? What's louder than a busted muffler on a souped up car? What's irritating when you're trying to. Thank. You know it sucks when you just want to drink. It's karaoke night at your local bar if I want to hear a drunk guy butcher Post Malone, I'll go to sea Post Malone. Not everyone's Mariah or Daryl Hall Some folks are meant just to work at the mall Pearl harbor was bad but the Japanese have gone too far
Josh Arnold
I'd
Pat Godwin
rather take a pool cue right in the eye Than hear some wasted fool sing American Pie it's karaoke night at my low. Who is this American Idol wannabe thinking he could sing Bohemian Rhapsody? Ah, plick a, pick a key or plick a key or pluck a key.
Tom Griswold
Whatever you want.
Pat Godwin
If I hear one more version of Friends in Low Places Some local yokels gonna need some braces. You ruin Uptown Funk and I'm gonna go and no Delta Donner, I want a new drug. One more love shack and I'm pulling the plug. It's Karaoke 9 at my local bar.
Tom Griswold
Pat.
Pat Godwin
Yes, sir.
Tom Griswold
You're a good singer. Do you ever. Have you ever been at a karaoke bar? Gotten up there and once liquored up
Pat Godwin
with Carrot Top and another prop comedian called the Legendary Widow. And they knew of this thing I used to do, which is I would take my way, the song my Way. And they would. I would do the dirty drunk version of My Way where I would just, you know, kind of Don Rickles the crowd. It's like regrets.
Tom Griswold
Look at this lady over.
Pat Godwin
You know, I would just be filthy. And we got kicked out. That's the only thing I've ever done in Las Vegas at a club.
Christy Lee
I saw Henry Phillips one time kill at a karaoke bar. It was so fun.
Josh Arnold
Remember the song?
Christy Lee
It was a Frank Sinatra song.
Pat Godwin
My Way is pretty easy.
Christy Lee
Might have been My Way, actually.
Josh Arnold
My buddy Mark could bring the house down with a pitch perfect version of Take on Me. Oh, he really hit the notes.
Christy Lee
That's impressive.
Josh Arnold
And, I mean, that's a hard one.
Tom Griswold
I just looked this up. The number one. Is it pronounced karaoke?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Pat Godwin
Karoki, actually.
Josh Arnold
Oh, they say karoki.
Tom Griswold
Okay. The number One. I'll just. Just be an American. The number one karaoke song is,
Christy Lee
boy,
Tom Griswold
as soon as you hear it, you're gonna go. Of course.
Josh Arnold
That's a good guess.
Al Jackson
The.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, the duo Sweet Caroline.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, okay.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
That didn't used to be. That's. That's got to be new, right?
Christy Lee
And that's not even a I.
Josh Arnold
You get the whole place singing, though.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Don't Stop Believing from Journey.
Christy Lee
That's big.
Tom Griswold
Friends in Low Places. That's a big one.
Josh Arnold
That's a fun one. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Piano Summer nights.
Christy Lee
Yeah, that's the grease.
Tom Griswold
There's your grease. And rounding them up. It's Bohemian Rhapsody.
Christy Lee
That's way too long for a karaoke.
Josh Arnold
I've never heard it at a karaoke place.
Christy Lee
That should not be a bold move.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, I've heard it a lot. Yeah, that. In paradise by the Dashboard.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
No, that's a hard one.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, you're right. Under five minutes.
Christy Lee
Right under five. It should be like three minutes max.
Al Jackson
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Get people in, get people out.
Jeff Oskay
Do you have a go to Josh?
Josh Arnold
Mine was always Brandy or I did a metal version. I would medal up. You Ought to know by Alanis Morissette.
Christy Lee
I like that.
Tom Griswold
I'd like to see that.
Pat Godwin
I saw my brother. Somebody asked my brother. My brother is a nice voice. Jimmy. Jimmy Godwin there. And he. Someone asked him to get up to karaoke and he. He goes to make. Watch this. And he goes up. He does the divine owls hit I Touch Myself.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Now when a man sings that, it takes on a whole new.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Well, that actually leads us to a news story. Old school flasher in the news. You don't hear about these much anymore, but the word peeping Tom.
Christy Lee
Yeah, that's true. Police in Florida say a bachelorette party at a West Palm Beach Airbnb took a terrifying turn when a peeping Tom exposed himself. Hey, WPEC reports officers were called to the Airbnb where an unknown man had been hiding behind bushes near the home watching Women in the pool.
Tom Griswold
Now, what's. Does anyone see something about this that is sort of funny? So it's a bachelorette party. So they've got. They've got the giant penis thing you hit with a hammer. What are those called? They got that penis pinata. They've got the penis straws, the penis earrings, the cake shaped like a penis. Some guy flashes a real one, and now they're mad.
Christy Lee
Apparently, he had his pants pulled down. Officers located the man matching the subs, the suspect's description and arrested him on Charges of voyeurism and exposing his sexual organs.
Tom Griswold
But, I mean, you gotta hand it to the guy. It's kind of unplugged. He's off the grid. He's not just home by himself looking at a screen. He's out there.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah. He did the work. Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
What if he was dressed as a police officer and then he could say he was just a stripper for the party. Sorry, I got started early.
Josh Arnold
I was told to go to a bachelorette party on this street. Is this not it?
Tom Griswold
That would have been the way to go. Is that the number one bachelorette stripper gag? The policeman?
Christy Lee
I have never seen it live and in person.
Tom Griswold
Have you been.
Josh Arnold
Have you seen a stripper at a bachelorette party?
Christy Lee
No, I've never seen that. But I'm at that age where we didn't really have. A lot of the bachelorette parties were pretty tame when I was doing the bachelorette thing.
Tom Griswold
As comedians, you guys know, you'll.
Christy Lee
I've been to Thunder down under and I've seen the guys dressed, but they're the. The Australian.
Tom Griswold
The bachelorette parties at a comedy show.
Christy Lee
Oh, I've seen that.
Tom Griswold
And they've got the penis straws.
Pat Godwin
And that's every week.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Nothing will ruin a comedy show like a bachelorette.
Josh Arnold
It can get bad, but now I lean into it. It's. You know what? It's not their fault. They thought this was going to be the right thing to do. It isn't. But I can't get mad at them for thinking that this was a lot of.
Tom Griswold
A lot of heckling.
Josh Arnold
Because what the person who planned it doesn't realize is that's an hour plus of the bride getting zero attention. That's not what you do for a bachelorette party. Right. And so when they show up to a comedy show and she expects to get some attention and isn't they're going to scream out and yell and ruin it.
Jeff Oskay
My favorite is the MC that does the hacking. So who planned the bachelorette party?
Josh Arnold
And. Oh, it was me.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, it's usually the slutty one.
Josh Arnold
Oh, dude, you're right. Oh, yeah, that is. That's like. How does every mc know to do that?
Jeff Oskay
I love that. I laugh every time.
Tom Griswold
Ever want to. I know. Right now the president's in China. It's a real big deal. But you know that all those penis straws are made in China for sure.
Josh Arnold
Probably. Or Thailand. Or.
Tom Griswold
Wouldn't it be funny? Wouldn't it be funny if they took the president a factory tour? And I don't want to see those cars. We're not importing those. Take me to the building next door. And it's the penis straw place. And what a gig that would be. Take your dad to work day. My dad works at the penis straw factory. We send them all over the world. They come in two colors. You want the big one or the small one?
Josh Arnold
I always like the. When bachelorette parties. Do the scavenger hunt type thing. Hey, can I get a selfie of you?
Al Jackson
I guess.
Pat Godwin
I'm the comedian.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Drinking out of my cleavage or whatever. It's always something like that.
Jeff Oskay
Or the. They put the Lifesavers on the shirt, you get the suck for a buck.
Josh Arnold
I never took part in that.
Tom Griswold
Wait a minute.
Josh Arnold
I've seen it plenty of times. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
What is it now?
Josh Arnold
They wear a kind of a sash sometimes, or it's on the.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, yeah, sure. And they just. The individually wrapped lifesavers, they tape them all over and you give the chick a buck and you get to have a suck.
Josh Arnold
Suck the lifesaver off of her shirt.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah. Real. Yeah, I've seen it multiple times.
Pat Godwin
We've seen it all.
Josh Arnold
It's every way to get a cold for us. Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Right. Late show Friday.
Josh Arnold
So now you. I give them a little bit of attention.
Pat Godwin
You have to.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah. Instead of fighting it, just. Okay. Talk to them for a little bit and then give them all the attention.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah.
Christy Lee
I bet you do.
Tom Griswold
Now, coming up in the news. Chrissy, what have you got over there?
Christy Lee
Coming up, we have a dog trapped on a roof. We have three UPS workers in trouble for stealing, and a sombrero in the news. Kind of.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah. This is kind of cool. We have two stories about outer space.
Christy Lee
Yep.
Tom Griswold
One involving Halley's Comet and the other involving the Sombrero Galaxy.
Josh Arnold
And Halley's comet hits the ear Wrong.
Tom Griswold
But it. It was Edmund. Holly.
Josh Arnold
You know what, though? We changed it.
Tom Griswold
I'm thinking of the department store in Cleveland.
Josh Arnold
We changed it, and I think we got to stick with how we changed it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Sorry, Hallie, you're long dead. It's Haley's.
Tom Griswold
You know that gerrymander technically should be gerrymander.
Christy Lee
You taught us that. I was.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but no one does that.
Christy Lee
No.
Tom Griswold
And we're doing it, apparently all over the country right now.
Josh Arnold
Isn't it wonderful?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
My gosh.
Pat Godwin
A lot of the green room is seeping out into the actual show, and I'm freaking into it.
Tom Griswold
Christy Lee.
Christy Lee
Well, speaking of that, no one really likes to choose, do we? No, no, no. But when it comes to driving your car, pick one of the wonderful hybrids from Hyundai. It's an easy choice to make. They're reliable, they're efficient, and they come with America's best warranty. I prefer the Tucson hybrid. The gas mileage is unbelievable. 37 miles to the gallon, and these days everybody's talking about gas prices. Why not jump into a hybrid? If you're a little bit more adventurous and you go off roading, you might want the Santa Fe hybrid. Bit bigger, but a lot of power and it has a lot of room to take all your stuff. Hybrids from Hyundai. You get the best of both Worlds by visiting HyundaiUSA.com or calling 562-314-4603 or visit your local Hyundai dealer. Good men and women working there. Hyundai hybrid. Check them out.
Tom Griswold
Thanks very much. Christy. Have you ever been to one of these bachelorette parties where they have the cake in the shape of a penis?
Christy Lee
I wish I could say yes, but no.
Tom Griswold
Have you seen the penis straws?
Christy Lee
I have seen the penis straws. I have actually emceed comedy shows. Dayton was a big one for me. Whenever I was over there, it seemed like there was a bachelorette party in the audience. So I have seen it.
Tom Griswold
You know what's weird to me is the uncircumcised pena straws. The. They, they leave the paper on the top. Kind of a. Kind of a weird. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

A lot of options Ace had. He chose to go with that one.
Josh Arnold
North. I'm Josh Arnold. My dad was adopted, so we don't know what weirdo country I'm from. And there's.
Tom Griswold
Didn't you take. Didn't you do the 23andMe test?
Josh Arnold
I did. I regret it every day now.
Tom Griswold
Oh, really?
Josh Arnold
The FBI and CIA have my blood and DNA files. Well, I mean, easily.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but you were a touring comedian. Name me one Holiday Inn that doesn't have a semen sample.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I. I would never do it in such a classy joint as Holly.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, there's, there's Tom Griswold. Well, do you mind if I. What was the result of your, your 23andMe DNA?
Josh Arnold
My mom's side, it was like 98% British English. And we wish I knew because I'd actually, when I was in England went and visited the graves of like my great, great, great grandparents and stuff.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, that's cool.
Josh Arnold
But my dad.
Tom Griswold
What was your mother's maiden name?
Josh Arnold
Starkey. And there is, there is apparently down the line a relation to Ringo. Yes.
Christy Lee
Oh, that's cool.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that explains. So starkey69 is your password.
Josh Arnold
That's right. It's grandma. Starkey69.
Tom Griswold
I'm sorry, your dad was what?
Josh Arnold
Now we kind of don't. Honestly we kind of don't know, so. Because he was adopted and we're not too sure.
Tom Griswold
But when you did, the DNA doesn't show that.
Josh Arnold
I am like 98% English and there was some like, like 1% Middle Eastern or something. Oh yeah, Yeah.
Christy Lee
I had Turkish in mind, which really kind of surprised me like 10%. It was a pretty substantial.
Josh Arnold
That's why we call you the Turkish Delight.
Christy Lee
Really?
Tom Griswold
Now Pat, are you a full blooded Irish?
Pat Godwin
No, my mom is. Her maiden name's Cost, which is short for Costenbacher, which was German. So she's Irish and German, half Irish and half German.
Christy Lee
Yeah, most of my mom is German.
Josh Arnold
Britain and I, Tom and I are big fans of the. What is considered a hack equation.
Tom Griswold
It's one of my favorite hack equation jokes.
Josh Arnold
And I, I don't. Yeah, I, I'm Irish and German, so, you know, I invade myself on weekends.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
I invade the bars, every. Whatever the hell. I, I'm a sucker for it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Bob. Bob. Yeah, Bob would do. What is it? I'm halfway Armenian, I'm half Irish, so I steal my Guinness. Yeah, I love the premise.
Josh Arnold
I do too.
Jeff Oskay
One of my first jokes was my son is half Polish, half Mexican. So he's going to be a really, really, really good worker, but really, really, really stupid. First down the job site. The former is going to show up. Hey, Jorge. Oscar. Good job planting the trees. Too bad you planted them all. Upside.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that was your first one, so you needed a little work.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, it was open minded.
Tom Griswold
But that leads us right to a story in the news today about a galaxy. I mean, think about this galaxy. Pretty big. I never heard of it. I thought it was kind of fun. Just the name of it.
Christy Lee
A telescope in Chile has captured stunning new imagery of the sombrero Galaxy, Huh? The US National Science Foundation Nor Lab released the latest photo of the popular hat shaped galaxy, which is located approximately 30 million light years away.
Josh Arnold
And ironically or coincidentally, Galaxy Sombrero was my favorite Tijuana stripper.
Tom Griswold
Well, they. And they spotted it using one of those radio telescopes. And we have the sound.
Josh Arnold
Oh,
Jeff Oskay
Thank you. You just saved me.
Christy Lee
You guys captured an incredible detail. The galaxy's stellar halo appears to be triple the size of the sombrero itself.
Tom Griswold
I want to apologize to any stoners out there because you mentioned that the galaxy is 50, 000 light years across.
Christy Lee
30 million.
Josh Arnold
Oh, that's a huge difference.
Christy Lee
You said 30 million light years away.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, no, across.
Christy Lee
I don't have that in my.
Tom Griswold
I know, and I'm. But because this. If this will blow your mind.
Christy Lee
Okay, okay.
Tom Griswold
It's 50,000 light years across. One light year is 6 trillion miles.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah. This is baffling.
Tom Griswold
So it's. I mean, it's too much for me to even comprehend.
Josh Arnold
Is it semi shaped like a sombrero?
Christy Lee
There it is.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I. I see. You can exact. You can totally see why it's called that.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But again, the radar telescope, You know,
Josh Arnold
you're killing behind the scenes.
Tom Griswold
I just love that music.
Josh Arnold
What is the name of that song?
Tom Griswold
Mexican Hat Dance, I think. I think. Okay, if it's not, I'm really an idiot.
Christy Lee
It'd be really great if it was filled with guacamole, wouldn't it?
Tom Griswold
You mentioned what that would cost. Another hack premise, the extra guac. But again, true.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
A lot of hack premises are really funny.
Josh Arnold
They can. There's a reason they became hacked.
Tom Griswold
You don't remember my idea of doing an evening where you. You issue like 10 comedians, five hack premises that they have to go with difference between dogs and cats, L.A. new York, whatever they might be. And because you're gonna get some great new stuff, make it funny.
Josh Arnold
We used to challenge ourselves with. Okay, you have to do a pro such and such joke. So how much you love airline food, why Nickelback is a great band, that kind of thing.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
And some hilarious stuff came out of it. If you just challenge yourself a little bit more. It was awesome.
Tom Griswold
I can't do it out loud. A really funny racist premise.
Pat Godwin
Oh, no, don't, don't. Go ahead.
Tom Griswold
Why I love. Then fill in the blank.
Josh Arnold
You're keeping this one to yourself.
Jeff Oskay
That's
Tom Griswold
why I love.
Josh Arnold
All right.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Like my how and how smart my Polish grandfather is or whatever. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Wow.
Tom Griswold
Well, thank you.
Josh Arnold
Although he was dumb, wasn't he? Yeah, he was a big dummy.
Tom Griswold
What was your. Your night? Your real name is Oscar, though, right?
Jeff Oskay
Originally it was Asha Housekenauskonowski, which sounds hilarious.
Tom Griswold
There's too many syllables.
Jeff Oskay
No, that's what I thought.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Ashkenazkanashkanashki.
Jeff Oskay
Asha Housekenowskinowski.
Christy Lee
Wow, man, that's a lot.
Josh Arnold
Don't they sell little boys jeans?
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
You know something? Can you go. But on your birth certificate, does it say Oscar?
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
No.
Jeff Oskay
When my grandfather came over, he got it changed because no one wanted.
Josh Arnold
He got it changed or they told him it was changed.
Tom Griswold
I mean, can you imagine? You're working at Ellis Island. Guy walks up and says that, and you go, seriously, welcome to America.
Christy Lee
How would you even spell that? I wouldn't even know how to spell it.
Jeff Oskay
Well, what's funny is we have, like, all the old documents from Ellis Island. My uncle went and copied them all.
Tom Griswold
Wow.
Josh Arnold
And.
Jeff Oskay
And three different ones came over at three different times. And the last name spelled differently on all three.
Christy Lee
Oh, I bet.
Jeff Oskay
So my own family didn't even know how to spell that last name.
Pat Godwin
Imagine. Imagine if Josh had your last name. That would go like. Like this Josh, if you had your full last name.
Josh Arnold
No. So my name would be Josh and House.
Jeff Oskay
I'm so confused.
Tom Griswold
Josh Ashkenazz at the front of what?
Pat Godwin
It'd be Josh Osha.
Tom Griswold
And the guy. Spit it out. Come on, get rid of it.
Jeff Oskay
My question about the guac, does that
Tom Griswold
translate into something though, right?
Jeff Oskay
No. Crappy comic. I don't know.
Tom Griswold
No, I. Yeah, it must. Eleventh frame strike.
Josh Arnold
Shooter force. Man on the light bulb.
Christy Lee
Ah, yeah. Now we're back to the Polish.
Jeff Oskay
That's very good.
Tom Griswold
Some of the greatest scientists, of course, in the world, Polish.
Josh Arnold
You had a guacamole question?
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
So if I go to the store and buy an avocado. $0.89, right. You mash it up, and it just drops some lemon juice in it. And now it's $3.
Josh Arnold
Like, no, it's $10.
Jeff Oskay
How's the upcharge for that?
Christy Lee
People are lazy and don't want to cut up their avocados.
Josh Arnold
Right.
Jeff Oskay
But all you're doing is mashing an avocado.
Tom Griswold
It's all about. It's all also about the timing. You got a time just right.
Christy Lee
Oh, for avocados.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah.
Christy Lee
With the prepackaged. You know, it's ready.
Josh Arnold
Oh, prepackaged guac is usually ready. Yeah. Yeah.
Christy Lee
That's what I'm saying. You don't guess.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. And then it turns brown rather quickly.
Josh Arnold
I Think that's just how good it is. They know they can get away with charging an extra.
Jeff Oskay
It's ridiculous.
Josh Arnold
Six bucks.
Tom Griswold
Delightful.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Do you like it? Love it. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
There was a natural segue I think we had here.
Christy Lee
No, we're going to talk about Halley's comet now, because we're talking about.
Tom Griswold
That's exactly what it was.
Josh Arnold
Outer space.
Tom Griswold
And it is. It is Halley's. I. Because I. I've always heard Haley's Comet. But I thought, wait a minute. And I looked it up this morning.
Josh Arnold
Now, is. Is it Bill Holly as well?
Tom Griswold
Technically, it should be Bill Halley and the comets. We're going to get that done.
Christy Lee
Scientists say.
Tom Griswold
Imagine getting part of the Rock and Roll hall of Fame anal routine. Bill Halley.
Christy Lee
Scientists say Halley's Comet may be named after the wrong person.
Josh Arnold
Oh.
Christy Lee
The comet was named after 18th century mathematician Edmond Halley, who concluded that comets recorded in 1531, 1607 and 1682 were actually the same object, returning roughly every 76 years. However, researchers studying accounts written by the 12th century historian William of Malmesbury discovered that a monk named Elimer of Malmesbury had witnessed the comet during two separate appearances and understood they were connected events.
Tom Griswold
That's a mouthful, though. Elmer of Malmsbury of Malmesbury Common.
Christy Lee
Scientists believe that realization raises questions about whether the comet should continue carrying Hallie's name.
Tom Griswold
I forgot to look it up. When's it coming back?
Christy Lee
We just had it not too long ago, didn't we? I don't know.
Tom Griswold
And, Jeff, you said in Washington they're renaming it the Comet of America?
Jeff Oskay
Yes,
Tom Griswold
it's. And it's not Elmer. It's. It's E I I, Limer of Moms of Malumsbury. Sounds Malmsbury sounds like a jam.
Al Jackson
It does.
Christy Lee
Malmsbury. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Probably be delightful.
Jeff Oskay
Go back to the naming like that. I want to be Jeffrey of Wanamaker.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, exactly right.
Jeff Oskay
Who would you be, Josh?
Josh Arnold
I'd be Joshua Fenton, technically.
Jeff Oskay
Oh. What do.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Is that where you were born?
Josh Arnold
I suppose I was born in. Boy, it was real close to Fenton, but, yeah, I mean, that's where I was raised. So.
Jeff Oskay
Is that where fentanyl comes from?
Josh Arnold
Fentanyl? Oh, Fenton. No, I'm not. I'm not saying that there isn't some there, but I. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Can you do. You could name it after the hospital where you're born.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I'd be Joshua of St. Anthony's oh, that's good.
Tom Griswold
I'd be Thomas St. Luke.
Christy Lee
I'd be Christie of method. Methodist.
Tom Griswold
That's ironic, though. You're a Catholic.
Christy Lee
I know, right? July 28, 2061 is when Halle's comment comes back.
Pat Godwin
Joseph of St. Joe's oh, look.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, that's fun.
Tom Griswold
So wait a second. 2061?
Christy Lee
Yep.
Tom Griswold
Hang on one second.
Christy Lee
You're gonna be around.
Tom Griswold
I'm gonna. I'm gonna be missing that one.
Josh Arnold
You don't know, man.
Tom Griswold
Give up.
Josh Arnold
I may be here, but I doubt I'll see it.
Christy Lee
I definitely won't.
Tom Griswold
Josh will still be single. Yeah, I. I tell you what. Someday I'm a thorough and thorough and something.
Pat Godwin
Venomous lover. I don't know what I am.
Tom Griswold
They're in Venomous lover. That's it.
Josh Arnold
You turn this pizza into pudding.
Tom Griswold
Well, what's coming up in the news, Christy Lee?
Christy Lee
Coming up, we have a dog trapped on a roof. We have a new Godfather novel. We have a.
Tom Griswold
What else do we have, by the way?
Christy Lee
We have Al Jackson coming up. We have history.
Tom Griswold
I have a. I'm in a couple of different things. These sort of forums where people ask questions.
Christy Lee
Yes, sir.
Tom Griswold
They'll ask questions about all kinds of things, but for some reason, people are obsessed with the Godfather movies, and they'll ask these, how come so and so did so and so to so and so? Like, it really happened?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, well. And they get into the. They really go deep, and they'll go, this wasn't in the movie, but it's in the book. This is a new Godfather novel that has been, I guess, commissioned by the family by Mario Puzo's son, and it's being written by a woman from a woman's perspective. And. But I read an article about Mario's. Puzo's son was saying he can remember his dad telling him that the major characters in the Godfather that were doing all the thinking were based on his grandmother. Oh, interesting that there were women who were doing all the planning behind. Because in the movie, the women are, for the most part, props.
Josh Arnold
I mean, it's even made clear you don't ask me about my business.
Tom Griswold
Which is interesting because the door closes
Josh Arnold
right in her face.
Tom Griswold
But apparently, the reality of the. Of whatever you want to call it, Cosa Nostra, was a little bit different.
Christy Lee
We all know women rule the world. Come on.
Josh Arnold
We also have all met Italian women. No.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah.
Josh Arnold
They. You. The whole mess.
Tom Griswold
You boss around Tammy Pescatelli and get back to me without. Without your groin in place. I'm just saying we'll be talking about that, and among other things, I think we're going to come back with a really exciting day in history. All right, I know you're thinking, I don't want to go to history class. Oh, yes, you're okay. We have some very important things coming up, and right now I want to ask you something, and I don't know the answer to this, but for those of us that own homes, if maybe you had a neighbor sell their house, this just happened to me, and I went, they got how much for it? Houses are worth a lot more than they were just a few years ago, for the most part. It may not apply to you, but it probably does. And what am I talking about it for? Because you don't have to sell your house to take advantage of that. You can refinance it and pull some cash out. Maybe you want to pay off some serious credit card debt because they're charging a 20% interest. Plus maybe you want to redo the kitchen, build a deck. I know, Christy. Just put in a nice concrete deck, porch. Whatever you want to do, it's your money. But you can maybe access it by talking to our friends at American Financing. The idea here is you refinance it, pull some cash out and reduce your mortgage payment at the same time. Grab a little money. And the stats they were just sending me last week, their average client is saving about 800 bucks a month. Also, they have a thing for now. I'm not sure how much longer they're gonna have this where you can, depending on your situation, of course, delay two mortgage payments. So talk to the pros. And by the way, there's no high pressure. There's no. It's just, you know, folks that are on salary, they're not. They're not gonna come after you to do this if you don't wanna do it. But they can spend about 10 minutes with you and figure out if this might work for you. So give them a call. It's American financing.net I'll give you the phone number quickly. It's 866-889-2611. It's easier to remember the phone number. No, it's easy to remember this. American financing.net and if you would do me a favor, put Slash, Bob and Tom. That'll let them know that we.

Tom Griswold
Hello.
Josh Arnold
I like you very much. Really a lot.
Christy Lee
You're very good or something.
Jeff Oskay
Yes, yes.
Josh Arnold
We were just talking about brain farts. There's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hello.
Josh Arnold
Jeff Oskay's there.
Jeff Oskay
Hey, man.
Josh Arnold
And there's Ace Cosby. I am Josh Arnold. I just switched to decaf. Tom, I feel like I could shingle a house in 20 minutes. Oh, I have. I'm flying. I don't know why I haven't done anything differently today.
Tom Griswold
Well, I'm happy to have you here.
Josh Arnold
Yes. Thank you.
Tom Griswold
And I. I mentioned this yesterday and after many years of doing this, I don't know why I never thought of it before. If you say something stupid and you're drunk, you're forgiven.
Christy Lee
Right?
Tom Griswold
But when we say something stupid at five in the morning on this show, people don't realize.
Christy Lee
Hey, they call us out immediately.
Tom Griswold
It's five in the morning.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah. They don't realize I'm still drunk.
Tom Griswold
Well, there's. In your case. Yeah. Okay. But, yeah, we need. We need to give us a little bit of a wiggle room here. It's early.
Josh Arnold
Also, we're morons.
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Josh Arnold
Never underestimate the power of super. You put a microphone in front of an idiot.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
You don't just have to go to Washington to do that. You can do it everywhere. Okay, where was. Oh, history. History. Wait a minute. Okay. What?
Christy Lee
Dave, Learn us.
Tom Griswold
All right, hold on.
Josh Arnold
You know what? It's a. There's a special birthday today.
Tom Griswold
Sing along with the band. Go ahead.
Josh Arnold
My older brother Jeff. It's his birthday today. Happy birthday, Jeff. I love you.
Tom Griswold
The handsome one.
Josh Arnold
He is the hot favorite. He's not the. Well, no, the joke is that John is the favorite with my mom. And by joke, I mean the fact.
Tom Griswold
And he falls where in the four brothers, John.
Josh Arnold
He is third.
Tom Griswold
Oh, okay.
Josh Arnold
So it's Jeff, Josh, John, Joe.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Is Jeff a Jeff or a Geo?
Josh Arnold
Jeff J. Oh, yes. Yeah, Jeffrey.
Tom Griswold
Okay, now. Well, happy birthday. They have the same birthday as the great Walden Casoto.
Christy Lee
Who the hell's that?
Tom Griswold
Anyone? No,
Pat Godwin
I don't know.
Tom Griswold
Better known as Bobby Darren. I love Bobby Darren.
Josh Arnold
I do, too, man. What?
Pat Godwin
He's great, Matt.
Christy Lee
The nice guy.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
He's really, really good, though.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. But Splish Splash. I was taking a bath.
Josh Arnold
Right?
Pat Godwin
Beyond the sea.
Josh Arnold
Beyond the Seas.
Christy Lee
Wonderful.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Pat Godwin
Great live performance.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. It died in the bathtub.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. He was flushing in a splash.
Josh Arnold
I think it was long. About a Saturday night. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I was gonna say at the age of 37, but apparently no respect whatsoever.
Josh Arnold
The Spacey movie is not terrible, but it's. It's so clearly a vanity project that sort of gets in the way, but it's. It's worth a watch.
Christy Lee
Timeout. Bobby Darin died when he was 37.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Oh, I didn't know that.
Josh Arnold
Space. He played him when he was 54.
Tom Griswold
I know. Spacey's got his. He's a great actor.
Josh Arnold
Of course. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Stand back. Suri had some issues, but who doesn't? Come on.
Josh Arnold
Learn to take a compliment, Fell.
Tom Griswold
This is something I thought of just for Josh, I hope. This may not work, but 1943, Jack Bruce, who we met in the studio, sadly gone, of course. Famous as the bassist for Christy Lee Cream. Yes, yes. And he famously toured with Jonathan Davis on the Cream Corn tour.
Josh Arnold
Isn't that something?
Tom Griswold
Wow. Yeah. Anyone?
Jeff Oskay
I loved it.
Tom Griswold
Was it worth it?
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Okay.
Tom Griswold
If you're a fan of the band Corn, and whenever we talk about Corn, I always remember the contest at the other radio station in this building where the. The winner got a corn tattoo. And the guy got it because they spell it K, O, R. He got it on the back of his neck.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Badass.
Josh Arnold
You can still get hired.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah. But it's gonna be hard to explain when you go to the doctor. Do you warn the doctor? Jeffrey. Do you warn the doctor that you've got the weird tattoo on your. You have? Well, you got the one. Isn't it like a I?
Jeff Oskay
Well, on my neck, I have my astrological sign.
Tom Griswold
Right.
Jeff Oskay
Because at one time I was a teen unwed mother of three, so I had to get that. And then. No, I don't warn the.
Tom Griswold
You don't?
Jeff Oskay
No, no.
Christy Lee
They've seen it all.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but, I mean, I don't know. I would think some of them, you'd have to warn the doctor. Especially some of the ones like. They've got the Pink Panther mowing the pubes. That one.
Christy Lee
Well,
Tom Griswold
let's see now. Happy birthday, George Lucas, you nerd. If you want to give George Lucas a present, the guy's worth billions of dollars. You know what he wants today?
Christy Lee
What?
Tom Griswold
He wants to Go one day without some nerd coming up and. And saying he ruined Star Wars. For God's sake, just calm down.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
David Byrne, brilliant musician.
Christy Lee
I love him. And I can't believe I missed him in concert.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Somewhere like a week ago.
Josh Arnold
He's wearing his giant birthday suit.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. A friend of mine said that was the best concert he's ever seen.
Christy Lee
I. I heard that too.
Jeff Oskay
He needs a new Taylor.
Christy Lee
So upset.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, he does need a new Taylor.
Tom Griswold
It's never the Talking Heads.
Christy Lee
Yep.
Josh Arnold
You know who hates him? I mean hate. Well, we'll send me texts randomly with it's Chick McGee.
Christy Lee
David.
Josh Arnold
He just hates the way he dances and that's. Oh, like, look at this weirdo.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Oh, that's a surprise. He has no joy in his life.
Josh Arnold
I love him and I love the talking. Are you a fan of Burn?
Pat Godwin
Oh, I love you.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
That's one of my favorite bits that you have.
Pat Godwin
Which one?
Josh Arnold
Oh, psycho.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah, you do. A knockoff of Psycho Killer.
Pat Godwin
Seven versions.
Josh Arnold
Does cascase mean anything?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah.
Josh Arnold
What?
Tom Griswold
It's a very common phrase in French.
Josh Arnold
Oh. Do you know what it means?
Pat Godwin
What are you talking about?
Tom Griswold
I think I hear it all the time.
Josh Arnold
Oh, okay.
Tom Griswold
I don't know what it means. You know.
Jeff Oskay
Where do you hear it all the time at?
Christy Lee
Yeah. Thank you.
Pat Godwin
France.
Tom Griswold
When I've traveled. You hear these French people talk. Every word's different. It's totally weird. What does it mean? What does it mean? What'd you say? Or something? Ah, Casca. Say Casa. David Byrne. Talking Heads.
Jeff Oskay
Right.
Tom Griswold
Not Talking Head. That's a podcast with Alex Cooper on the Sirius XM dial. Happy birthday. Robert Zemeckis, anyone?
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Back to the Future. Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Tom Griswold
That's what comes her Horace Gump flight.
Josh Arnold
Polar Express
Christy Lee
means. That's right. That's it. That's right.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Polar Express.
Tom Griswold
I don't like that movie.
Josh Arnold
Neither do I. I don't like the feel of it.
Christy Lee
A lot of my kids hated.
Josh Arnold
I like the story.
Jeff Oskay
What's the weird.
Tom Griswold
I think uncanny valley or whatever it is. I think the problem. I think it's a terrible story.
Josh Arnold
I do, too. It's not interesting and it lasts forever.
Tom Griswold
I had to go see it in 3D widescreen. Happy birthday. Tim Roth, very fine actor. Famous for Pulp Fiction. And he's the famous monkey guy, Right?
Josh Arnold
I don't know what that monkey guy,
Tom Griswold
he was the scary monkey in one of those.
Josh Arnold
Oh, he wasn't. It was a Planet of the Apes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Terrifying.
Josh Arnold
And the Tim Burton, Planet of the Apes.
Christy Lee
Monkeys and apes are not.
Tom Griswold
Happy birthday. 1969. Cate Blanchett.
Josh Arnold
Wonderful. Isn't she beautiful?
Tom Griswold
Spells Kate with a C the way you spell Christie with a K. What does that mean? Who are you trying to fool?

Really?
Tom Griswold
Sorry, I didn't rush it. Have written that down. 83. Amber Tamblyn, the daughter of one of my favorite people, Russ Tamblyn.
Josh Arnold
I believe she's a member of the. Is she a member of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants?
Christy Lee
I believe you're correct.

Married to David Cross, the comedian.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
She's a good poet, too. 1984. Mark Zuckerberg.
Christy Lee
He's rich.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Starting. He's starting to look more like that guy from Data from Spiner.
Josh Arnold
He is looking like.
Jeff Oskay
That's a good call.
Tom Griswold
But he looks. He. He looks like he's Data in. What's it called? Kabuki makeup.
Josh Arnold
Well, Data kind of had the Kabuki.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Because Zuckerberg. I know Zuckerberg's been trying to do. He's doing a bunch of what, martial arts and stuff.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Trying to get a little bit more.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah. He wants to fight Musk, doesn't he?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I'd watch that.
Josh Arnold
What? I just. The sissiest slap fight.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I think Musk would just kick his ass.
Josh Arnold
No, they probably do.
Jeff Oskay
Wait, you think Musk would. No, it's the other.
Tom Griswold
Isn't Musk real tall?
Jeff Oskay
Zuckerberg, like, trains, like eight days a week. Yeah, he's a monster.

Yeah. Clay Matthews. Anybody know who that is?
Josh Arnold
Football player.
Tom Griswold
Football. Thank you. Ace packers hall of Fame.
Christy Lee
Yep.
Tom Griswold
Looks like Thor. Yeah, right. Oh, yeah. Oh, here we go. That's follows this one. Happy birthday, 89. Ron Gronkowski.
Josh Arnold
Ron.
Tom Griswold
What did I say? Did I say Ron? Rob. Excuse me, Rob.
Josh Arnold
I don't know if Ron was like, his stepdad or something.
Christy Lee
Gronk. Just go.
Tom Griswold
Gronk. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Josh Arnold
He's fond, isn't he?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Grun.
Tom Griswold
I think he's. Wherever he is, he's having a good time, but every birthday he goes, am I 69 yet? Oh, get it.
Josh Arnold
Oh, geez. You either like him or you don't.
Tom Griswold
On a serious note, Pat, you're. You spent a lot of time in Philadelphia.
Pat Godwin
Yes, I did.
Tom Griswold
In 1787, delegates gathered in Philly to drop the United States Constitution. Yeah. Took them forever because they kept ordering out for those cheesesteaks. They were really delightful. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Who Spilled cheese on the document.
Tom Griswold
Jefferson. Oh, this is one of my favorites. 1804, Lewis and Clark set out from St. Louis for the Pacific Coast.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, they started underneath the arch.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And just like the Rams, just like the St. Louis Rams, they went west.
Jeff Oskay
I was so disappointed that the arch didn't go over the river.
Tom Griswold
Me, too.
Christy Lee
Me, too. I thought.
Tom Griswold
I thought it did.
Pat Godwin
It doesn't.
Tom Griswold
No, I honestly thought it did.
Christy Lee
I did, too.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
I was a kid.
Josh Arnold
I did. Once a year for one week, they have it step over, across, and then it comes back.
Tom Griswold
I would say one of the greatest shows we ever did. Mississippi nights right on the river. Did you go to that show, Josh?
Josh Arnold
I did.
Tom Griswold
It was amazing.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. I love.
Jeff Oskay
Man.
Josh Arnold
That venue was fantastic.
Tom Griswold
That was a great venue and a great show. It sure was a lot of fun. And here we go. I mentioned this earlier.
Josh Arnold
I remember Bob came out and he. The first thing he said to the crowd was, do these pants make my d look big?
Tom Griswold
1878, Vaseline is granted a. A patent.
Christy Lee
Stick around.
Tom Griswold
And I mentioned this earlier, and I hope this is okay, but I was told by a vet, if your dog eats something that they shouldn't and you want it to pass, obviously you can use hydrogen peroxide to get him to throw up. But if you haven't caught him to take a dog biscuit and coat it in Vaseline petroleum jelly and give it to them and they'll eat it and it'll kind of. I need to get that verified by a veterinarian before I give bad advice.
Josh Arnold
Remember the Flaming Lips? Sure. She uses vag.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. I don't recommend peanut butter and petroleum jelly.
Josh Arnold
No.
Tom Griswold
Although that might be good for the dog to eat. Lastly, the space station Skylab launched. Wow. In 1973.
Josh Arnold
Is that the thing that fell back to Earth?
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Yeah. Although so did Sky Mall. Think about it. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
That had a slower collapse.
Tom Griswold
Boy, that had a. Oh, and this is sad. Frank Sinatra died on this date in 98. And this was also the series finale in 98 of Seinfeld. So that's death.
Josh Arnold
Oh, that's death. Hey, that's what all the people say.
Tom Griswold
It was a very bad year. Sorry, Frank.
Christy Lee
Coming up, we have Al Jackson.
Tom Griswold
I'm leaving today.
Josh Arnold
Old, Old exile lives.
Tom Griswold
Old blue skin. Okay. We will return to the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Show Announcer
More of the show is on the way. You can find us on X at Bob and Tom or you can email us at Bob and Tom. Bob and Tom.com
Tom Griswold
this morning.
Josh Arnold
Oh, my Gosh, sometimes I forget I have responsibilities here. It's the Bob and Tom Show. We are live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. You can tell we're live, otherwise we would have gone back and fixed that in post. There's Christy Lee.
Christy Lee
Hello.
Josh Arnold
Pat Godwin's there.
Pat Godwin
Hey, boy.
Josh Arnold
I was deep in a daydream.
Christy Lee
You were daydreaming?
Josh Arnold
No. I couldn't even tell you what I was. Actually, I could tell you, but it was. It's so boring. There's Jeff. Oscar.
Pat Godwin
Hey, man.
Josh Arnold
Ace Cosby's there. I am Josh Arnold. Tom. We're joined on the zoom.
Tom Griswold
There we go. It's a comedian. Al Jackson. Looks like he's.
Christy Lee
Are you in the garage, Al? What are you doing?
Tom Griswold
Are you welding? What are those glasses?
Al Jackson
I am in a different location. My buddy Rojo, very funny comic from New York City, is crashing with me. So he's on the couch, and you would have seen him. And in the corner of my normal shot, it would have been that shot where, like, you know, like, a famous businessman is putting his suit on and there's, like, a super hot chick in the bed. It would have been like that shot in a movie, except it was my buddy. So I was like, we're just gonna do it this way.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it would have been a little weird.
Al Jackson
Yeah. Lots of explanation. You know what's weird is Josh is like, my daydream is so boring. Everybody wants to hear it. I. I really find the older I get, it's just the little things that I'm really interested in, like, just, like, any kind of drama that's happening at my girl's job. All the guys I used to know growing up were like, I don't want to hear about my girl's day at work. That's all I want to hear about. I want to hear about the. I like the little drama everywhere. So I like. I want to hear. Josh, what were you daydreaming about? It cannot be too boring.
Josh Arnold
Okay. I was daydreaming about a. I was in a sketch group in the early 2000s, and we had this sketch, and I was literally daydreaming about how we could have made it funnier.
Tom Griswold
Okay, what was the premise?
Josh Arnold
The premise was based on a true story. My buddy who was in the sketch group, his uncle, was a gambler, loved going to casinos. Well, when he died, he was cremated, and they would take his urn to the casino and sit it on, like, the slot machines while they played.
Tom Griswold
Oh.
Josh Arnold
And so the sketch was based on this guy's you know how they would go to casinos with this urn?
Tom Griswold
Okay, so now when your daydream. How did you fix it?
Josh Arnold
We. What? We. So for no one, we kind of turned it into like a faux sitcom where we had fake canned laughter and all this stuff. And, And I was just thinking about how we could have played it a little straighter and made it fun. I'm telling you, this is not interesting. You don't have an.
Al Jackson
I'm very interested.
Josh Arnold
Well, you write comedy.
Jeff Oskay
And what was the name of your sketch group? I'm more interested in that Left at
Pat Godwin
the Light as a second name.
Josh Arnold
Left at the Light worked.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
What was it called?
Josh Arnold
Left at the Light. As in, like. Yeah, you make a left at the light and then you go down two miles, then you make a right.
Jeff Oskay
No, we heard you.
Josh Arnold
What the hell did you want it to be funny?
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
Everybody howls at Mr. Show and Kids in the hall and Saturday Night Live sure has a wonderful pun in it.
Al Jackson
I, I, I like it, Josh.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, thanks. That's what you did. It was always something not. It's not a joke. Nobody goes to see sketch pad McQuack.
Pat Godwin
I go see that
Josh Arnold
improv.
Tom Griswold
MC improv.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
That's awful.
Al Jackson
You know what?
Josh Arnold
I. In St. Louis, ladies and gentlemen, Left
Tom Griswold
at the Light, just not that night.
Al Jackson
Sketch Pad McQuack is going to be how I check in the hotels.
Tom Griswold
Does anybody else. Anybody else have any cool daydreams they were having during the break?
Josh Arnold
I tried to not talk about it.
Al Jackson
Josh. No. Josh. I'm still thinking about it because. Especially when you said you could have played it straighter. Because I see a movie where it starts out as this funny thing where, yeah, uncle like to gamble, blah, blah, blah. And so you get the things, you get them cremated. And you take the urn because you have little urns. I actually have my dad in a little urn. You can take a little urn and the first machine, these three friends take it to the casino with it hits, and then another one hits. And at first it's good, but then human greed takes over. And now they're like, there. This is a magic urn. We can't all share it. We all gotta go start killing each other.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Movies called He Earned It.
Josh Arnold
There you go. You gotta throw a pun in there starring Sketchpad McQueen.
Tom Griswold
Maybe go a little more direct as the world earns. Okay, sorry.
Jeff Oskay
I.
Tom Griswold
My day, my daydream. I don't understand mine either. I was driving the. The famous Oscar Meyer wiener mobile. Oh, here we go through a tunnel.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Then I. I crashed. I crashed into something, and all the airbags went off and there was a big oil spill. It makes. It makes. Makes no sense.
Josh Arnold
I don't know what that could be about.
Tom Griswold
I don't know. Al Jackson is our guest. We were talking about words earlier this morning, and I think learning English has to be particularly difficult if you're an adult and you move here. But there's so much stuff.
Al Jackson
I taught English as a second language when I lived in Providence. I used to volunteer at the public library there. And it's weird. My biggest partying years. I was also in big brother's big sisters for years. I don't know if just my life needed balance. I was a big brother, and I volunteered to teach English at the library there. And I didn't realize until you start when you. Because we speak it. So you're like, what's so hard about it? There are, I believe, 88 uses of the word run. Like a run in the stocking. A run in the stocking. Running a race. You know, there are just so many diff.
Tom Griswold
Runs in your pants. Yes.
Al Jackson
Runs in your family.
Tom Griswold
Oh, that's awful. I got it on grandma.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Al Jackson
First of all, that's probably a sub genre of porn, so don't hate. Yeah, it's.
Josh Arnold
Oh.
Al Jackson
And I want to talk about only fans before we get off here, but, yeah, I just. It's. It's extremely difficult to learn. So I. I definitely, you know, tip of the cap to anybody that's trying.
Tom Griswold
We had a letter about baloney and how the word baloney is spelled. Balagna.
Christy Lee
Right.
Tom Griswold
Then I mentioned the word colonel. That makes no sense. Debt with a silent B. Of course people can't understand English and learn how to write it. It's impossible. So confusing.
Al Jackson
Lincoln's got an L randomly in there.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
It's weird.
Tom Griswold
But we talk about language on this show with you, and your goal is to hit me up a little bit, if you will, with some street. Street talk. What have you got for me today?
Al Jackson
I wanted to get into the world of food a little bit, Tom, because there's a lot of slang that comes from food. I wanted to know. Let's see where you take this. Tom, what is an herb or herb.
Tom Griswold
An herb in the real world? Well, herb. I'm aware of it. As Jeffrey Oskay would say, I was smoking some herb last night, and was it your Benjamin Franklin bong vapor. Yeah, I know that that means herb. And then, of course, herb would be like herbs and spices. Is there another meaning to herb?
Al Jackson
There is I'd like to hear your guess.
Tom Griswold
What the. What is the context? Dating.
Al Jackson
No, it would be an adjective.
Josh Arnold
Is it a nerdy old man? Like, look at this herb.
Al Jackson
That. That is 100 the use. I mean, I guess it could be an old man, but just a nerdy person. But you said it with an H.100. Yeah, a hundred percent. How it is said like, look at this herbal. Like a hundred.
Tom Griswold
You said it with an H though.
Josh Arnold
You said a herb.
Al Jackson
You could say it either way.
Tom Griswold
Herb or herb.
Al Jackson
But yeah, you, you or I would just hear because it would be such a dismissive thing that girls would say. And I was like, I hope girls never say that about me when I'm not around. They'd be like, ah, he's a herb. And I'd be like, oh, it was just so like, you have no chance. It wasn't even like they took enough time to use a curse word.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but of course, the most famous herb, of course, is Herbert Hoover. So if you said she's a Hoover, that wouldn't necessarily be negative.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, that would be a whole different thing. Yeah, that would.
Tom Griswold
Look at her, she's a round heeled Hoover.
Christy Lee
I thought of Herb Tarleck.
Pat Godwin
That's what I thought I was gonna say.
Christy Lee
I thought he was the most popular herb.
Al Jackson
Yeah, I mean, if you think about like, it's. I, I think curse words are overused just because people tune them out and they don't mean anything. But if, like, if a girl broke up with me and she said, I don't care about you, you blanking blank, whatever. Okay, fine. But if a girl broke up with me and she was like, that's why your elbows are ashy. And then she left the apartment. Like, I would think about that for the rest of my life. I'm like, am I hydrating? It would kill. Wouldn't like, that's why your dishes are. Don't match each other. And you're like, what? The specific dis is way worse than like any kind of general. Even if it's like a bunch of bad words together. It's like you could. A five year old would say that.
Tom Griswold
That.
Al Jackson
But if you said that with your Viennese glasses, you'd be like, whoa, no, that would hurt.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that's great. Yeah. Precision insults and breakups. Makes perfect sense.
Al Jackson
My genre.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, makes perfect sense. Al Jackson, are you on the road this week doing any comedy? What's going on?
Al Jackson
I'm not on the road this week. I'm in Eugene, Oregon, next week with my buddy Hannibal Burris. We're doing a bunch of shows out there this weekend. I am chilling. I have a show tomorrow here locally in Denver at Denver Comedy Works South. And when I say tomorrow, I mean today. I'm sure there are other Bob and Tom listeners that have the condition where, like, dates and times mean nothing. So, like, I don't know. I thought the show tonight was yesterday, so. Yeah, apparently it is today, so come on. And I'll. I'll definitely be in Eugene, Oregon, with Hannibal Burris next weekend. And that Sunday, I'll be in Carbondale, Colorado as well.
Tom Griswold
So now do you ever. Have you ever done. Have you ever done the full Heywood Banks?
Josh Arnold
Where's the full Heywood?
Tom Griswold
You go to the wrong city a week early.
Pat Godwin
Usually it's Bloomington.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, he calls me and calls me on a Friday and, hey, you want to have dinner? What are you doing around here? Oh, I thought I had a gig in Columbus, Ohio. It's next week.
Al Jackson
He was just chilling.
Tom Griswold
No, no, he was in the wrong state and he thought he'd come over.
Christy Lee
Yeah, he kind of has to go this way to get home, I guess.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
So.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, you've never done that, Gone to the wrong place, showed up for the club and. What do you mean? I'm here next week.
Al Jackson
You know what, though? That would kind of be a dream to me. If I, If. If I had that weekend open, I was like, oh, you just need to find a hotel motel and just. Just crash for four days with no responsibilities. That would be my dream. I would love it to just sit and be. I am an isolationist. I have to fight it. So, like, yeah, that wouldn't be that bad for me.
Tom Griswold
Okay. Okay. Just asking. Thanks, Al.
Al Jackson
Love y'.
Josh Arnold
All.
Tom Griswold
We're gonna push forward here. Now, what's coming up in the news, Christy Lee?
Christy Lee
Coming up, we have a new Godfather novel. We also have a very disturbing story. If you are the parent of a teen boy, you might want to listen up.
Tom Griswold
Well, if you're the parent of a teen boy or girl, God bless you.
Pat Godwin
That's me.
Tom Griswold
Hope you make it through the day. It can be rough out there. We. We all know that. Right now I want to remind you of a couple things.

Josh Arnold
Hey, it's the Bob and Tom show. Live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee's delivering the news from her desk.
Christy Lee
Yes, I am.
Josh Arnold
Pat Godwin's singing the blues. Jeff, Oskar is wearing shoes at his desk.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, sure.
Josh Arnold
Ace Cosby. What am I doing? What am I doing? Is on the ones and twos at his desk. I'm Josh Arnold.
Tom Griswold
Is that like the sixes and sevens?
Josh Arnold
No, no. I'm Josh Arnold. What rhymes here? Let's see with what you haven't noticed what I'm doing. New blues, Shoes, Twos. Will you pay a modicum of attention?
Tom Griswold
Oh, I like the word modicum. Rhyme with that one.
Josh Arnold
I'm Josh Arnold.
Tom Griswold
You got news blues.
Josh Arnold
No, I abandoned it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, Shoes. What'd you have for race? The ones and twos are very clever.
Josh Arnold
I wish I had chosen or choose something else. I wish I had continued to snooze. This morning.
Tom Griswold
Momentum. Well, thank you for that nice introduction. Once again, we have Christy Lee going through some papers over there. What's written on them?
Pat Godwin
Yeah, give him a look he deserves.
Christy Lee
A new Godfather novel told from the perspective of Connie Corleone, will be released next year.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, that's what the world's been clamoring for.
Christy Lee
Random House.
Josh Arnold
Hey, you want to hear about the mobsters and the gift? No, no. Tell us about the bitch in the corner.
Christy Lee
Random House reports that it acquired the novel authorized by the estate of Mario Puzo and written by best selling author Adriana Trigiani. Connie. The third Godfather book approved by the estate and the first written by a woman, will center on the Corleone family member played by Talia Shire. As we all remember in the Godfather films, it's scheduled for a fall 2027 release.
Tom Griswold
Every time I think I'm done reading the Godfather sequels, they pull me back in.
Christy Lee
Ms. Triggiani, a million selling author who wrote of her own Italian roots in the novel the Shoemaker's Wife is also known for favorites like Is it Lucia? Lucia and the Queen of the Big Time. I'm not familiar with her.
Josh Arnold
Also the Shoemaker's Wife. Hey, do you want to hear a fascinating story about a guy and how he's a cobbler and he helps all these people with their shoes? No, no. How about it was the story of his wife who nags that he works too many hours.
Tom Griswold
A little deeper than that. Anthony Puzo, Mario's son. Yes, I got a quote from. He goes, Adriana was knocked out when I told her that the character of Vito Corleone, which is Brando and De Niro in the movies, was actually based on my grandmother. So that's kind of cool. So you got the. The ladies out there should be fun. I mean, in the movie, the women
Josh Arnold
are always woke up. The Godfather, that's what we all wanted.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, okay. Sorry. Hey, Mario Puza. That crappy first Superman movie.
Josh Arnold
The wildly successful and popular Superman.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's so dumb. Brando after he let himself go.
Josh Arnold
I'm gonna have to re see it. I haven't watched that in decades.
Christy Lee
This will make him mad. The cast in the the Fast and the Furious rolled into the Cannes Film festival yesterday for a 25th anniversary celebration.
Tom Griswold
Hope the brakes work this time.
Christy Lee
The French festival is going to host
Tom Griswold
a midnight watch out for that tree
Christy Lee
of the first release in the 10 movie series.
Josh Arnold
A lot of comedy there.
Christy Lee
Yeah, especially.
Josh Arnold
No, it's your fault that you're bringing it up,
Tom Griswold
especially since Live by the sword.
Christy Lee
His daughter was there. And there was a very emotional reunion. Of course, there was Vin Diesel, which is very special. Ah, boy, he burned him.
Tom Griswold
So let's cash in on him.
Christy Lee
Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster were all on hand in France.
Josh Arnold
It's weird that they went to the Cannes Film Festival, though, isn't it?
Christy Lee
Yeah, it is kind of weird, but. And they're showing.
Tom Griswold
But I'm sure Truffaut would be.
Christy Lee
Well, and they're showing the first one at a midnight showing. It's the worst one, I think, of the whole series.
Josh Arnold
Part two is the worst one. Have you seen all of them?
Christy Lee
I think one was pretty bad.
Josh Arnold
They continue to get. I thought they continue to get better and better.
Christy Lee
I did, too.
Jeff Oskay
How many are there now?
Christy Lee
10.
Jeff Oskay
Are you serious?
Josh Arnold
Tokyo Drift count. Yeah, I think Tokyo Drift is much better than part two. Yes. And it's bad.
Christy Lee
I'll tell you who's watching those movies. Teen boys. And they're in the news today. Experts are sounding the alarm as more teenage boys are turning to AI. Girlfriends. Researchers have found a quarter of boys aged 12 to 16.
Josh Arnold
Fathers everywhere announce, fine with us. Yeah.
Christy Lee
Say they prefer the attention they get from a chatbot over a real person.
Tom Griswold
Less. Less. Teen pregnancy, I'm guessing. Got that going for you.
Christy Lee
60%.
Tom Griswold
Although it might. It might gum up the keyboard.
Christy Lee
An AI relationship is easier because they can, quote, control the conversation. One professor told Fortune magazine the appeal for boys is obvious. Quote, maximum control, zero rejection. However, experts warn that this preference for AI will not only affect their relationship, it will lead to young men becoming unemployable. Unemployable? Yeah, due to underdeveloped social and soft skills. One researcher noted boys are unconsciously training themselves to expect relationships that never push back, never need tending, and never require genuine compromise.
Josh Arnold
Are we getting any specific numbers in that story?
Christy Lee
Said 60%. Saying AI is better is easier.
Josh Arnold
No, no. How many boys?
Christy Lee
Oh, I don't know.
Josh Arnold
This could be 1%.
Tom Griswold
I don't think so.
Josh Arnold
Well, we have no idea, though.
Jeff Oskay
Do you remember back in, like, grade school or high school, you would have the person like, yeah, I'm dating a girl.
Josh Arnold
Oh, what's.
Jeff Oskay
Who? Oh, she goes to a different school or she goes to, you know, they would do that kind of thing. And now it's like, who's your egg? Or, oh, you don't know her. She goes. She's on a different processor
Josh Arnold
up in Canada.
Tom Griswold
Went through my phone.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, she is my phone.
Tom Griswold
Wait a minute. Of course she did. Because she is My phone. Yeah, I guess she didn't set up that very well, did I?
Josh Arnold
No, no. You.
Tom Griswold
Does it make sense? That's ridiculous.
Josh Arnold
I'm not worried until that. The. The fact that the story doesn't have numbers in it tells me this isn't anything to worry about.
Christy Lee
I wish I had. I don't have the full story. I could maybe get you.
Josh Arnold
No, I'm not.
Tom Griswold
But.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's just. But this is why you do these things. Are they programmed to maybe reject somebody? That would make it a little more accurate.
Josh Arnold
I mean, doesn't this story tell. Hey, women, step it up.
Christy Lee
Is that what you're getting at?
Tom Griswold
Yes. Really?
Josh Arnold
Be nicer and let men control you.
Jeff Oskay
Start saying yes more.
Josh Arnold
Come on, ladies, step it up a little bit.
Tom Griswold
Once again, teen pregnancy just went up in your scenario.
Christy Lee
A new dating trend taking over social media has singles using slideshow presentations to find a potential match. According to dating news, the so called PowerPoint dating event crops up around the world with one leading organizer. Date my mate. Calling it a global movement.
Tom Griswold
So is this a group thing?
Christy Lee
Yes. You go to a group thing and you show your slideshow at the event.
Jeff Oskay
You present yourself during these slideshow events.
Christy Lee
Friends tend to give presentations for each each other or on behalf of a single friend.
Josh Arnold
So I'd be like, dude, you gotta meet my buddy Jeff here. Look at how great he is. He's a great family man. He's.
Jeff Oskay
Then you flip to the next slide.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
So you do it in person.
Christy Lee
Yes. Presenters have three to five minutes to convey their friend's eligibility and personality as effectively as possible.
Josh Arnold
I bet people. I'm choosing to believe that they're having fun with this and it's. Yeah.
Christy Lee
And they're saying that it's trying to help with that dating app fatigue that a lot of people are suffering from.
Tom Griswold
Be funnier if it was like Shark Tank.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Oh, yeah, people.
Tom Griswold
Well, I'm looking at him. Beard's too long, eyes are too close, nose is too big.
Josh Arnold
We're learning a lot about Tom's opinion.
Tom Griswold
Nose is too hairy. And for that reason, I'm out.
Christy Lee
I don't. That I don't know if they actually make matches at the end.
Jeff Oskay
I think that's great though because some your friends are who. Who pump you up the best.
Christy Lee
Well, back in the old days, that's how you met people was through your friends.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. You know who the worst wingman in the history of friends. And I put in quotes, Greg Warren. Greg Warren will ruin any opportunity you have with a woman.
Jeff Oskay
He's the on purpose for fun.
Josh Arnold
I almost just got. No.
Tom Griswold
Angry. Are you.
Josh Arnold
He sucks.
Christy Lee
He is.
Josh Arnold
So I remember I was talking to a girl one time, and he comes over. What are you talking to this idiot for? What's boring you with? I have a Chucky doll. And it's all. I go, craig, just because you can't talk to girls and I can doesn't mean you have to try to ruin it for me.
Jeff Oskay
No, but that's how. That's how he talks to women.
Christy Lee
We have a whole bit called the
Josh Arnold
uncle, where he doesn't even realize that it makes him way more attractive. He goes, oh, you know what? You were talking to the right guy here. This guy is so great because. Because what it tells women is, oh, you hang out with people you think are dumb. If you hang out with people, it really does. Like, there's a whole study on that. You push, like, whoever you're with, you make them seem like the best person ever, because that shows people that you hang out with only good people.
Tom Griswold
Now, you want the other Greg. Greg Hahn.
Christy Lee
Oh, my God.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. He wouldn't do that.
Tom Griswold
No, he's the greatest. Because if you just take what he spills, you've got. You've got. So. But this is interesting to me. So this is. This is sort of old school, kind of.
Josh Arnold
And then they're probably, you know, after the slideshows, people can be mingling. All mingling. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
This is kind of like you've got your vinyl. You know, vinyl albums are coming back, picking up, women in bars coming back.
Josh Arnold
It's all cyclical.
Christy Lee
Everything old is new again.
Tom Griswold
Landline phones.
Josh Arnold
Pretty soon, crabs will be back.
Tom Griswold
You know, it is back in a big way. What is syphilis?
Pat Godwin
Really?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues.
Christy Lee
Yeah. And you just got married. That's so sad.
Josh Arnold
Is that one that can be easily treated and cured?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it was almost gone. I'll. I'll get the story for tomorrow. I was reading about it yesterday. It's back and it's big.
Josh Arnold
Huh?
Christy Lee
Is it big amongst old people because they're not using condoms?
Tom Griswold
It's big amongst everybody. The sif making a big comeback.
Josh Arnold
All right.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, we got a lot of. Of diseases on the way back.
Josh Arnold
Oh, Jesus.
Tom Griswold
Build a ramp.
Christy Lee
Oh, my.
Josh Arnold
It's not only uninformed, it's boring. Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
I was paging through my diseases weekly.
Josh Arnold
That is a good read. Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Have you seen. Have you seen the COVID of this week? That is. I thought that was a map of China. It was Just a shanker. There was no. There was no scale. Of course. Course. Yeah. Sif making a big comeback.
Christy Lee
Okay, we can.
Tom Griswold
We can talk about it tomorrow if you want.
Josh Arnold
All right.
Tom Griswold
Anybody ever had it?
Josh Arnold
No.
Tom Griswold
Nope. Okay. Me neither. I just know it's. I. Snow. It's coming back.
Josh Arnold
What's. I mean, that's got to be good news for the medicine people, whoever, whatever. Sif.
Christy Lee
Is that a penicillin product? That takes care of that.
Tom Griswold
I know. It's. It bugs me, though, because they're calling it an STI now.
Christy Lee
It's like Sexually transmitted infection.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's like, yesterday I heard this thing about UFOs. They don't call them UFOs anymore. Now that's some other dumb thing to take to distract us from the fact that we have aliens living among us.
Josh Arnold
That's exactly right.
Tom Griswold
It's an STI now.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Infection instead of disease. There's a difference.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but everybody knows the std, though.
Josh Arnold
I wish you would. Your platforms wobble like. Like a 4x4 on a rubber ball. It's. Now we have to say how these comet around this guy.
Tom Griswold
I want my brontosaurus. I want STDs. Right. I want all the old things.
Josh Arnold
But.
Tom Griswold
But I want.
Christy Lee
I want to say Hallie's, but you
Josh Arnold
also want us to say Van Huff instead of Van Gogh.
Tom Griswold
And I want ashtrays and those little kitty cars. Teach the kids the way it used to be.
Josh Arnold
Candy cigarettes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, candy cigarettes are great.
Christy Lee
Oh, my God.
Pat Godwin
So what is that orangutan now?
Tom Griswold
It's not orangutan.
Pat Godwin
Right.
Tom Griswold
Okay. And it's also Pat. We got to get another song out of you.
Pat Godwin
I'm here.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah.
Pat Godwin
For your pleasure.
Tom Griswold
Okay, when we come back, we'll get a song out of Patty Garrett right now. She likes to sing in her car. And a nice car it is. Christy, what is it again?
Christy Lee
Yes, it's my Tucson Hyundai. Not Hyundai, Hyundai. The Tucson Hybrid. It has America's best warranty. It's got amazing stereo in it. The cabin is just so peaceful. You know how sometimes you're driving on the freeway and it's loud and you just roll up your windows and it's just silence. It's so nice. Oh, I love it. You could have a Santa Fe Hybrid as well. If you like to go off roading and need a little more power to navigate some tough terrain, then you might want to check out that Santa Fe Hybrid. Tucson Hybrid. Santa Fe Hybrid. They are the best of both worlds and you'll find them at Your local Hyundai dealership. And did I talk about great gas mileage? Trust me, it's awesome. Hyundaiusa.com or 562-314-4603 those are the places to find all the details on the wonderful hybrids from Hyundai.
Tom Griswold
Thank you very much. Christy Lee. We're coming back with a song from Patty G. Have you ever had an AI girlfriend?
Pat Godwin
Have you ever an AI girlfriend?
Tom Griswold
No. Do you ever talk to an AI chat bot, if you will?
Pat Godwin
No, but AI is all around us, you know, with the music and stuff and the art. Myself.
Tom Griswold
You ever talked to one of those chatbots?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I'm sorry, I have not.
Christy Lee
I have texted with the chatbot about my.
Tom Griswold
Wait a minute, here it comes.
Christy Lee
Well, about. I have. I decided to put a shower plant in my shower, and I wanted to know of what kind of plant and where, and I send it a picture and she's like, oh, I don't know if it's a she or he, but that looks wonderful there. That plant should be great. It'll flourish.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yes.
Christy Lee
I'm not lying. I could read you the chats if you'd like.
Josh Arnold
No, you have.
Jeff Oskay
You just don't realize. Yeah, like, anytime you've, like, message online, like a customer support, chances are.
Josh Arnold
Right. But I've never actually spoken to a chat bot.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, I don't really talk to. I mean, I talk, text, and then.
Josh Arnold
Oh, you weren't talking.
Christy Lee
No, they text back.
Josh Arnold
I think you were talking, talking, right?
Tom Griswold
Oh, no, you can. No, it's you. You go. It's typing back and forth, you. Oh, okay, you're talking to your AI AI girlfriend. One of my buddies wants to know if you have a sister. Stuff like that.
Christy Lee
She said, oh, that's a beautiful setup. It looks designer level already. That riser would just make it behind the scenes.
Tom Griswold
If you'd asked me, I would have said, first of all, it's dumb. Second of all, you're putting in the wrong place.
Christy Lee
That looks nice, doesn't it?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I wouldn't judge it. In reality, I would just do that so you felt inferior.
Pat Godwin
Beautiful, Christy.
Christy Lee
Thank you, Pat.
Pat Godwin
It is beautiful.
Tom Griswold

Tom Griswold
I see him riding his bicycle around Manhattan the time. Really?

It's.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Very elaborate.
Josh Arnold
Oh, we gotta go.
Tom Griswold
Tremendous musicians and.
Josh Arnold
But I'll travel. We gotta go.
Tom Griswold
But, Pat, you have a disrespectful knockoff to one of David Burns songs.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, I do. For a while there, we had the story about someone going crazy on a plane. At least ten of those stories.
Tom Griswold
We get them all the time.
Pat Godwin
And I've taken all of those and I kind of put them into one little song. Here, for you.
Josh Arnold

Christy Lee
Was that in a movie or something? Or did we just sing that as kids?

It was one of those things. Yeah, it was the Buckle up for Safety jingle. But Rubber up is just as appropriate and could be involving more safety. And we're still going to call it an STD tomorrow because we're old school. Okay, it drips either way, but we're old school. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Tom Show.

This episode of The BOB & TOM Show is a classic blend of irreverent comedy, pop culture chat, sports updates, and listener interaction. The crew riffs on everything from throwback TV parodies and nostalgia for past trends, to bizarre news stories about peeping Toms and the resurgence of hacky sack. There are segments on band camp for adults, AI girlfriends, new Godfather novels, and a tour through language oddities and classic rock memories. The banter is fast-paced, self-aware, often edgy, but always rooted in the show’s trademark silliness and wit.
[00:30–03:31]
“Well, you just beat everything, you know that?... Why’d you do it, Gomer?” – Tom, Christy, and Josh
[03:33–05:13]
[05:25–06:16; 41:56–43:48]

[15:01–18:17]

[19:00–22:07]
[25:02–27:19]
[12:26–24:28]
[91:28–98:30]

The show’s tone is a buoyant mix of sarcastic and self-aware. They bounce between nostalgia and contemporary absurdity, poking fun at themselves and pop culture with equal relish. The humor is at times edgy and irreverent, but always rooted in relatable daily experience—whether riffing on hot dog sandwiches, lamenting new dating trends, or playfully undermining one another.
Much of the show’s appeal comes from the ensemble: Tom’s obsessive curiosity blends with Christy’s dry wit, Josh’s self-deprecating rambles, Pat’s musical comedy, and Jeff’s “everyman” asides. Listener letters and recurring in-jokes make the whole thing feel like a jovial, slightly unhinged family breakfast.
This episode highlights why The BOB & TOM Show remains a staple of American morning radio. It’s as much about the chemistry of its hosts as about topical jokes or news, using personal stories, running gags, and a constant stream of comic invention to turn even the most ordinary topics—driving, hot dogs, or the English language—into riotous, memorable moments. Whether you tune in for nostalgia, sports, dumb criminals, or deep dives into the oddities of modern life, you’re guaranteed fast laughs and sharp cultural commentary.
