Oddball stories—a diamond in an artificial eye, a pig on a skateboard, NBA scandal, jazzed-up cows, and more—serve as springboards for banter, making this episode a prime example of the show’s enduring, fast-moving, participatory style.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the Bob and Tom Show. My favorite Gene Wilder movie is Young Frankenstein.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Oh, yeah. I can do anything you want.

[Tom Griswold]

I think the funniest scene in this of movies is when he says, whatever I do, if I go, no matter what, whatever I do, no matter what you hear, no matter what I say.

[Josh Arnold]

And I want you to listen to.

[Tom Griswold]

Me, no matter how bad it gets, do not open this door. Do you hear me? Do not open this door. Hey there, handsome.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, my God. Let me out.

[Tom Griswold]

Open the door. It was a joke. Stupid son of a. My favorite speech from the movie is. First of all, my favorite one word impression is said. Again said the dirty word. My favorite speech, because I've used this.

[Christy Lee]

I've.

[Tom Griswold]

I've lost some jobs in Hollywood. I was let go, offering 0911 and people say, how did you react? I said I was, you know, I was brave at first.

[Josh Arnold]

I was like Gene Wilder.

[Tom Griswold]

Like, no, no. Be of good cheer. If Hollywood teaches us anything, it teaches us that we must accept our successes as well as our failures with quiet dignity and grace. You son of a bitch. Bastian. What did you do to me? What did you do to me? I don't want to live. I do not want to live.

[Al Jackson]

Mama.

[Josh Arnold]

Ah, the great Carlos Elizrathi. Just heard him on a recent Family Guy Halloween episode. All right. Oh, that's right, ladies, it's the Bob and Tom show live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios.

[Tom Griswold]

Put your clothes back on, ladies. Come on.

[Josh Arnold]

You can sing without being nude. Oh, we know you argue that your Clothing is restrictive to your diaphragms. It isn't. You can sing just fine without it.

[Tom Griswold]

And by the way, please check your diaphragms at the door. We have birth control Bill.

[Josh Arnold]

Not those diaphragms, silly head. Are you happy now? Now I'm out of music. Is there a. I have to do the intros.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there a capella? Is there a video singing diaphragms?

[Josh Arnold]

I. I don't know. If not, will you get on it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, we could probably make one very quick.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Chris D. Lee at the Silac Insurance Company news desk.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat Godwin's there.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Look at Jeff Oskay over at the prize Pick sports desk.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, man, how are you?

[Josh Arnold]

I'm good. There's Ace Cosby. Hey, Josh. I'm Josh Arnold of the I Hate Steven Singer Sidekick chair. And Tom. We have a heck of a morning, I'm sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, we got a lot going on, of course, A lot happening in the world, so. That's unbelievable. We also have a lot of great letters helping us understand the complexity that is existence in contemporary, contemporary culture. This is not. It's not easy getting through all this. Carlos, Alice, Rocky was referencing the great movie Young Frankenstein, which is, to me, absolutely top 10. Just a brilliant, brilliant comedy. Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

They hold that close to the breast. It's kind of hard to find.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really? Like streaming and stuff?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well, look, look, go for it.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I know.

[Tom Griswold]

If you've never seen it, it's as funny as. Yeah, anything can be.

[Josh Arnold]

I own the physical media. If you'd like to borrow it, I.

[Christy Lee]

Have nothing to blame on. I'd have to come over and watch it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Let's have a movie night.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

You make the popcorn?

[Al Jackson]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

My husband's out of town this weekend.

[Tom Griswold]

And there's a new Frankenstein coming out.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. Guillermo del Toro gave his. Oh, gave a swing at it and apparent. I'm sure he did great. I love that guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yet another Frankenstein movie, then he's too modest to mention it. But Pat Godwin technically is related to the Frankenstein origin story, is that correct? Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Mary Shelley is actually Mary Godwin. She married the poet Percy Shelley and. Yeah, the rest is history. We get no money from that public domain. I think.

[Tom Griswold]

As a general rule, you get no money for much.

[Chick McGee]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

That seems to be the.

[Pat Godwin]

I just love the art form.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, of course.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, speaking of the artiste, Pat Godwin, a very exciting news. Pat's gonna be in Mason City, Illinois, on Saturday night. So if his arms are still working to play the guitar. There'll be music and comedy. I say that because Pat's been packing because he's moving 100 yards. And you think he was moving to Alaska, the way he's boxing everything up? What are you nuts?

[Josh Arnold]

No matter how much a move is, it's stressful.

[Chick McGee]

It's awful.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Hire out.

[Pat Godwin]

I did. I am. Yeah, but still, you got to put stuff in box.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, you hire that out, too. Then you get a big dumpster and you move. That's the key.

[Christy Lee]

Is that the key?

[Tom Griswold]

That's the key.

[Pat Godwin]

You are. I am throwing away a lot of stuff.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

One of my neighbors did that the other day.

[Christy Lee]

Hired a dumpster, and.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Dumpster at the end of the driveway.

[Christy Lee]

Nothing. Nothing.

[Tom Griswold]

Better three days in a row, just.

[Christy Lee]

Moving stuff in, cleaning out the garage.

[Tom Griswold]

First time I built a house, I. It's a. The short version is I lived about 200 yards away from where I was building the house. I was. You got that? Does that make sense? So they brought the dumpster in. After they took that, we're going to clear the lot and everything. And my builder, Mark goes, that dumpster will be full in a day. Full of what? There's nothing there. And literally, they put the dumpster in. I went down there that night, rode my bike down. There was a couch in it. Yeah. A dumpster is a gigantic magnet for other people's crap.

[Christy Lee]

Well, look right here at our work.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, sorry. Remember. Remember the memo?

[Pat Godwin]

Button down low.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, one day, a certain person in this building went to that dumpster, and it's got a. It's a big one. So it's got the slider on the side.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

The dumpster is, like, what, seven feet high?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But there's a slider on the side. Certain person, you're opened up the slider, and a raccoon came out. Almost took his face off.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You want to throw it over the top?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You don't want to open.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. You don't want to go through the side.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That's why I think I had to have shoulder surgery.

[Chick McGee]

I found that the dumpster here is usable as long as you use it before 5am oh, is that the key?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

The cameras can't see you. There's not enough light back there.

[Christy Lee]

Gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But for those of you that aren't familiar with dumpsters, just a little bit of. A little bit of a lesson for you this morning. This is an educational show. I heard that dumpster thing today. Now we have several things going in the world of quizzes today. Also a lot of letters. I'd like to get to this one right away. As you know, I mentioned this to the day. I've got a. I'm a big fan of the Otis Elevator Company.

[Christy Lee]

Of course.

[Tom Griswold]

In fact, they were kind enough to send me the official brass Otis elevator emblem. You can't see this. This is right, it's. But it's. It's a big. It's about the size of a softball. Very nice.

[Christy Lee]

And put that right next to your door like by the doorbell. Wouldn't that be beautiful as you walk into your house.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a nice logo. It old fashioned, really cute. This letter. For some reason my lovely daughter thinks Tom of all people believes the correct things about elevators. Went to the doctor's office and she asked me, is this elevator in Otis? I said no, she took the stairs. This guy actually has a photograph of his daughter standing on the stairway. Signed failed parent and lover of the show. Bob. Well, thank you, Bob. And your daughter looks absolutely lovely. And I'm glad she took the stairs. Probably better for her health. It's a shame that doctor's office was on the 25th floor. We will push ahead here. We have a lot of things coming up in the world of sports today where the world of sports meets the FBI. Oh yeah, big story yesterday. Very odd.

[Chick McGee]

And yeah, there's some people in big trouble.

[Tom Griswold]

The elaborate nature of the story.

[Christy Lee]

I had no idea you play poker that you could have X ray tables.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Come on. The, the essence of it was a certain NBA star was luring. They called them fish, luring gamblers to this poker game. And the poker game was rigged. This is according to the FBI. Among other things, they had an X ray table so they could. They had a. They had a shuffling machine.

[Chick McGee]

Altered card shuffling machines, hidden cameras and poker chip trays. Special sunglasses and X ray equipment built into the table to read cards off site.

[Christy Lee]

And they were sending signals and like.

[Tom Griswold]

In the beginning of the movie Goldfinger, remember. Where are they?

[Christy Lee]

I don't remember.

[Tom Griswold]

The ladies up on the balcony of the fountain. Blue. And Goldfinger's hearing aids are actually radio. It's. It's been around since the 60s, ladies and gentlemen.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you want to play poker with the big boys?

[Tom Griswold]

Here's what coolest part of this. And in some of the games, everybody at the table was in on the scam except the victim.

[Chick McGee]

I think that's how it works a lot of times on poker.

[Josh Arnold]

If you're scamming somebody.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I. I have a friend who's kind of connected to this. He's. I got to word this delicately.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you need to not say connected to this. He does play poker.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but he used to be part of a group of in Los Angeles that set up these big games. I mean, they'd have guys with machine guns at the door of the whole deal. Now, whether or not it wasn't one of these rigged ones, that's what I.

[Christy Lee]

Wanted you to say.

[Tom Griswold]

The point is there are huge poker games. Well, there are huge poker games everywhere.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

But yeah, this guy would be. He would. He was kind of coordinating some of the big ones and there were a lot of NBA guys involved.

[Josh Arnold]

These people are lucky that the FBI caught him. They're dead. I mean, there's a chance they're going to be dead anyway. This is a. You're killed for stuff like this. Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Apparently it was tied into the La Costa Nostra organized crime family, so. Yeah, you're dealing with some big people.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Who was the player?

[Chick McGee]

Well, the player was Miami heats Terry Rozier and then Portland's Trailblazers head coach, Chauncey Billups.

[Christy Lee]

Chauncey has had a great career in the NBA.

[Tom Griswold]

MVP and what was 2000 hall of Famer.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

The question is, what are these, what are these guys? What are these guys doing with all the money they're making?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. Because he made over $100 million in his playing career, not to mention his coaching career.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I'm guessing a lot of these guys. Not necessarily, Mr. Billups. A lot of these guys gamble all their money away way.

[Christy Lee]

That's true.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll tell a very quick story. A friend of mine was at a charity auction and one of the things that was auctioned off was the chance to go to an away game with a certain NBA team and you got to fly in the plane with them and they have a private jet that they've obviously chartered. And he went to the game in large cities elsewhere, and on the way back he was flying. He had to go to the men's room. And to get there, he said he had to step over several hundred thousand dollars in cash on the floor with a bunch of the guys throwing dice.

[Christy Lee]

So yeah, now we're talking.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, that's the milieu in which someone who's a mega millionaire can end up cheating at poker.

[Chick McGee]

Can you imagine playing craps on a plane with turbulence?

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

It's like, oh, you're out. Nope, you got it.

[Christy Lee]

That was hard. A. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. Well, again, a lot of these guys, sure, they went to a college to be. They didn't really attend a lot of the classes. Not necessarily the brightest bulbs. Now, a lot of other stuff going on today. Christy, what's happening in the world of news?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, we have a whole bunch of stuff. We have a jewelry store owner who's done a very interesting thing with his artificial eye. You'll find out about that. We have a couple of eye stories today.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, one of them really great. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

If you don't.

[Tom Griswold]

If you know someone that has macular degeneration, which is a really awful thing, my mom had that they've. There's been a lot of great work in that field, including something new that will conceivably help people that have it that are going blind still be able to see. Wow. Amazing story.

[Christy Lee]

And ladies, listen up. Testosterone could really be your friend. And you'll find out why.

[Tom Griswold]

I saw that.

[Christy Lee]

I've. I'm a big proponent.

[Tom Griswold]

I had never heard about this.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I've been taking supplements for 15 years.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, good for your husband.

[Christy Lee]

I know.

[Pat Godwin]

You're so saucy.

[Christy Lee]

That's right, baby.

[Tom Griswold]

One of the lines in that story is something like, I went from having sex with my husband never to six times a week at least, and I want. And then there's the line.

[Christy Lee]

Horny path.

[Tom Griswold]

There's the line of. There she goes. The lady goes. She goes. Well, I was having sex with my husband and all I could think of was the next time we could do it. Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's astonishing.

[Christy Lee]

And I don't take high doses, by the way.

[Tom Griswold]

There are some parents side effects.

[Christy Lee]

Well, there are side effects.

[Tom Griswold]

[Josh Arnold]

Hi there. It's the Bob and Tom show live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Look at you joining us this morning. We sure appreciate you. There's Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance Company news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Hi.

[Josh Arnold]

Fat Godwin across the way.

[Pat Godwin]

Hi, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello to Jeff Oscar at the Prize pick sports desk. Yes, sir, there's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Josh Arnold at the I hate Stephen Singer Jewelers Sidekick chair. Visit Steven Singer Jewelers at Steven Singer I hate Stephen Singer.com to be exact. I love find out why he's the most trusted jeweler in America. And Christie, you may love him, but he's the most hated jeweler in America by other jewelers.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I know.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't care for what he does. He has too good of deals. That's I hate Stephen Singer dot com. And Tom, what do want to talk about some letters from listeners.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And we do. We have letters. And of course our listener letters are brought to you by. Oh, it is this. What is that? To every song there's a season.

[Christy Lee]

Season. Turn, turn.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's what. It's what? That's. That's right it's about turning the stakes just the right time, because this is the steak cooking season. If you're grilling out before a game this weekend and you're not having steaks, turn off the radio. We don't want you as a listener.

[Josh Arnold]

He's not wrong, and that pretty much takes care of it. But we do have to do this verbatim. It says, get fired up. For fall grilling with Omaha steaks, visit Omaha steaks.com for 50% off site wide and for an extra $35 off, use promo code BTS at checkout. Thank you, Omaha Steaks.

[Tom Griswold]

You say you've got a brother and you have a rival team you're rooting for. Send him a box of stakes after your team is beaten them. Glorious in glorious. Victor. That's it. Almost sounds Latin, doesn't it? We have some letters to get to Josh. Do you want to start?

[Josh Arnold]

I have none.

[Tom Griswold]

Then I'll take over.

[Christy Lee]

I have one.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, go ahead.

[Christy Lee]

Good morning, gang. I've had a dream of spitting out my teeth. I usually wake up to a sore jaw because I was, in fact, grinding my teeth the whole time while I was asleep. Oh, yikes.

[Tom Griswold]

That was very high on our list, really?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, spitting out. You're losing your teeth.

[Tom Griswold]

Losing your teeth. In the world of dreams, that was a very popular one. I, fortunately, have not had that one.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, this is from Jeanne Mitchell in Ocala, Florida. She said, when I was married, I had the same dream, but when I woke up, it was actually my husband who was grinding his teeth, not me. So that's kind of crazy.

[Josh Arnold]

We used to do that as kids.

[Christy Lee]

You grinded your grind?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

The sound, if you've never heard. Have you heard it?

[Christy Lee]

It's awful.

[Josh Arnold]

It's a wild sound. It's tough to hear.

[Tom Griswold]

So do they give you some kind of appliance to put in your mouth to keep you.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

If it continues and starts damaging your teeth, luckily we either stopped or.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, I'm not trying to be mean. Is that. Are you dreaming about eating?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no. It's a. It's like your jaw.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I preface that by saying I'm not.

[Josh Arnold]

Once again, your jaw is just clenching, and it's just. And then what your jaw is trying to do is find a place, an even place. And so it's just sliding back and forth. It's how DM TMJ is caused most of the time.

[Christy Lee]

You know what that is, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's the. Where your jaws locks up. And there's. Isn't there actually A radio station, wtmj, where all the. All the announcers talk like this. Okay. We have a couple letters that reference this. I was complaining to a degree yesterday about team names where the team isn't really. Doesn't really reflect anything local. Yeah, there are a lot of really generic names, and we're the Raiders. No offense, Ace, but they didn't do any raiding necessarily. This goes. Hey, there, Tom writes. Mr. Mills, you indicated the University of Michigan shouldn't be allowed to be called the Wolverines because there's no such animal in the state of Michigan. Well, I didn't say that necessarily, but there's only, I guess, one wolverine ever spotted there, and it may have been planted. They don't know if they've ever had them in Michigan.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

But Mr. Mills is kind enough to point out, the last time I checked, there are no Spartans pillaging the streets of East Lansing. Good point.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, good point.

[Tom Griswold]

Then I've got another letter reminding me about the lack of bears in Chicago. I mean, the list kind of goes on.

[Christy Lee]

I bet there are bears in Chicago. There are bears in a lot of places.

[Tom Griswold]

We get a story every day. In fact, we have one today, another one today about a bear that wanders into a distillery in Bozeman. That's actually pretty funny.

[Christy Lee]

Well, now, Bozeman, Montana, you would expect.

[Tom Griswold]

A beer right now. There are no bears in Chicago. According to Steve, there are no Lions in Detroit. Oh. Oh, did you read this one, Christie? There are no Vikings in Minnesota.

[Christy Lee]

Vikings.

[Tom Griswold]

But there are thousands of fudge packers in Green Bay. Okay, someone's a Bears fan. I apologize. I didn't. I should have. I should have read ahead.

[Christy Lee]

And he's on his way to see the path. The packers and the Steelers. Sunday Night Football.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

How about that great hockey game tomorrow night? He's got a full schedule.

[Josh Arnold]

That's cool.

[Chick McGee]

Boy, he really wanted to get away from you. He left way early.

[Josh Arnold]

Does he have friends up there? Family?

[Christy Lee]

Yes, he has his high school buddies. There are four of them.

[Chick McGee]

Funny. Would it be if. No. Just. No.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, I know they have a happy marriage, but Christy likes you. Like your alone time, too.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, God, yes. Oh, did I say that?

[Chick McGee]

I would like to sign. I'd like to sign up for some alone time myself. I have a letter here. Dear People, in the wrong. Yesterday you were discussing if bathroom fans actually work in removing the smell. And it says, pushes up glasses and in an English accent. Actually, bathroom fans are mainly used to remove excess moisture from the room to prevent mold and mildew. Who said that this is from J.B. griswold Senior from Canada is what he signed it.

[Christy Lee]

That is actually true.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I was smell.

[Tom Griswold]

I was asking if they. I was asking if they're always vented.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know. Mine is. And it works very well. Removing the spot.

[Tom Griswold]

I kind of wonder sometimes if it's just up there.

[Christy Lee]

A lot of times they're just vented into your attic. And when you have your inspection for your house selling smells like crap out here show up. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Mine goes right outside because they had birds getting in and I had to replace the little thing that goes over.

[Christy Lee]

The whole vent cover.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, we had the story yesterday about the fire that was caused and an.

[Christy Lee]

Exhaust fan in a kitchen.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Somewhere in Michigan. And you know, scary.

[Josh Arnold]

You got to watch out for.

[Tom Griswold]

And they thought it was, you know, unfortunately it was something boring like caused by a chipmunk. As I said, it would have been a much cooler story if it. Apparently loose wolverines were blocking the.

[Josh Arnold]

The.

[Tom Griswold]

The air exits from dryers.

[Josh Arnold]

News stories could use more wolverines.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what I say.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. How about we release a couple in Congress?

[Tom Griswold]

There's nobody. There's nobody there now. Won't do anything. Well, if they ever figure out what's going on there, they can. They can go again. Okay. Do you have any more, Christy?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, no, I don't. Do you have any?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but this one of them needs a sound effect.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

So I'll have to dig for that now. Why don't we check into the sporting scene while I root around for the appropriate music.

[Chick McGee]

We got some big news. Recreational activities will no longer be a part of the Ravens locker room for the foreseeable future. Coach John Harbaugh made the decision to strip the room of video game consoles, ping pong tables, cornhole boards, and other.

[Josh Arnold]

Items because they stink. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

The decision was made following Ravens Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. They've dropped their next two games, bringing the team's losing skid to four. So they're getting rid of all the video games.

[Josh Arnold]

I wonder if it's for focus or if it's for like a punishment.

[Chick McGee]

Probably a little bit of both, wouldn't you think?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, maybe. I wonder if they'll get them back if they start winning. I mean, it's incentive.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, they just put them all up on the shelf.

[Christy Lee]

They sound like they're fine, but they are.

[Tom Griswold]

They're adult boys. And almost everyone in the NFL, no one has ever said no to them. Remember, every one of these guys Was, was the best athlete at his high school by 10 times the skill players. All of those guys are incredible athletes. The guys that are on the practice squads of the NFL are all tremendous athletes. So. But again, most of them, no one's ever said no to them. That's. There's. This is why you get guys in the NBA that are mega millionaires that are suddenly being indicted.

[Chick McGee]

Speaking of which, the head coach of the Portland Trailblazers and a player for the Miami Heat are among over 30 people facing charges in a takedown of two sprawling gambling operations. Portland coach Chauncey Billups was charged with participating in a conspiracy to fix high stake card games tied to the La Costa Nostra organized crime families that cheated unsuspecting gamblers out of at least $7 million. Heat guard Terry Rezear was accused in a separate scheme of exploiting private information about to win bets on NBA games. Both men face money laundering and wire fraud conspiracy charges. The NBA said it is cooperating with authorities. Now.

[Tom Griswold]

The 7 million is the old. That's the tip of the iceberg. It's going to be a lot more than that. But the cool stuff we were talking about a few minutes ago.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. It says the poker scheme lured unwitting players into rigged games with the chance to compete against former professional basketball players like Billups and Damon Jones. The games were fixed using sophisticated cheating technology such as altered card shuffling machines, hidden cameras and poker chip trays, special sunglasses, and even X ray equipment built into the table to read cards.

[Tom Griswold]

Isn't that amazing, man? Can you imagine? Okay, I'll raise you 50. And by the way, you might want to get that wrist looked at. I think you've got a fracture. X ray tables.

[Josh Arnold]

We don't need the law to investigate this. This will take care of itself. I say we save all the money. Just let this take care of itself. It'll be cleaned up.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, some of those very serious, what do they say, Casa Nostra families are apparently involved in this.

[Christy Lee]

I wouldn't want to get involved in that.

[Josh Arnold]

No way. First off, you're a total dirtbag if you're cheating at cards like that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And what really troubled me was they were saying last night in the news, everybody at the table except the. The poor guy that was getting screwed was in on the thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Socks.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you know, like the bartender.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's how, you know, like guys sitting there in New York, the three card Monty stuff. That's what they do. Like your first couple people that come up, they're part of it. With the Guy doing the cards and they're helping lure other people in by making it look like it's easy to win type thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, God.

[Josh Arnold]

Modest mouth said you got to learn some sleight of hand. Yes, it's kind of part of the thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

One of the. What's the word I'm looking for? Suspects Chauncey Billups again has made enough money to know better.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, well, all of them are super, super rich.

[Josh Arnold]

This is about a thrill.

[Christy Lee]

The kid from. Is it Miami? $26 million was his contract this year.

[Josh Arnold]

Money's aside, is icing on the cake. It's about the thrill.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I guess. But Chauncey Billups, if you're not familiar with him, he was part of the early 2000 bad boys from the Detroit Pistons. So. Oh, boy, 2004, I think. NBA championship.

[Christy Lee]

Do we get to hear a song?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that reminds me of my favorite song from one of my favorite human beings. Of course. I'm talking about the great Tim Cavanaug. Tim, would you mind serenading us, please? The Detroit Pistons, former champs of basketball.

[Chick McGee]

I have so many souvenirs, it's hard.

[Tom Griswold]

To list them all. I have piston pants, I have piston shorts.

[Chick McGee]

I have piston beer mugs.

[Tom Griswold]

Sometimes people don't even notice. I have piston ashtrays, I have piston shoes. I have piston basketball. When I dribble, they do.

[Christy Lee]

Today.

[Tom Griswold]

The Detroit Pistons. Thank you very much, Tim. And Tim's gone through some pretty serious scientific treatments for his illness, and he's doing great.

[Christy Lee]

So he had a little bit of a scare, but he's doing well now.

[Tom Griswold]

Get a chance to see Timmy live. He does a lot of work with the great Emo Phillips. But anyways, that's an amazing story in the world of the NBA. Some people are kind of wondering about the timing of this press conference because the NBA season started officially, what, two days ago? You know what I mean? Don't you think that it was a good time?

[Al Jackson]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just saying, during the off season. I don't know. To let Chauncey's coach a game and then go arrest him. Yikes. And have you seen any of the. Of the texts that they've published? What's the word? Damning? I believe so. We'll see. But Josh has nailed this. This is going to be handled by.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you got. You guys can stop.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Now that you've outed it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Save. Save all the taxpayers some money and just let this work itself out.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You know the scene in Goodfellas where he thinks he's Going to be a made man.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, we got a poker, poker game down in the basement.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, not. Not the face. My mom wants to go to the funeral. Okay, well, that's, that's all good to know. Christy, what's coming up in the world of news?

[Christy Lee]

Let's see what is coming up. We have. Do chimps have rights? We'll talk about that coming up.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe, yes, they have some, of course, animal rights, but they don't own photos they take. Remember that story?

[Tom Griswold]

I loved that one. The guy, the guy gave what? He gave like a. Or something, a camera that the thing took a picture and someone said that the. The animal owns it, not the guy who had the camera. Oh, come on.

[Christy Lee]

Is there anything funnier than an orang? They were out yesterday at the zoo hanging on those ropes. They were just hanging. They were just having the best time. I just love that. I love them. They're so funny. They're a funny animal.

[Josh Arnold]

But you kiss them on the mouth and you're not supposed to do that.

[Christy Lee]

I do not kiss them on the mouth.

[Tom Griswold]

I had a backstage tour there, and one of the guys handed one of the orangs a piece of chewing gum and the thing it was wrapped in, the little foil put in its mouth, started chewing, reached in, took the foil out and handed it back to him.

[Pat Godwin]

How is it pronounced now? What's their name now?

[Tom Griswold]

Orangutan.

[Pat Godwin]

Orangutan. I don't like it.

[Tom Griswold]

You like the orangutan?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, I'm used to that growing up.

[Josh Arnold]

Orangutan's better. Orangutan, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at the orangutan.

[Christy Lee]

It does have a better ring to it, if you will.

[Tom Griswold]

Did they name Tang the famous space drink because of orangutan? Because they're orange.

[Christy Lee]

Orange? I don't know. Good question. I think it's because it has a tangy flavor. Maybe.

[Josh Arnold]

Please stop saying things like good question to questions like that. It just encourages them.

[Pat Godwin]

You know, Josh indicates all of your theory.

[Christy Lee]

We sat here a long time, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a long show. They. They can't all be existential inquiries into the meaning of life. Some of them are overtly stupid.

[Christy Lee]

It had to be because it's got a tangy flavor.

[Tom Griswold]

But see, sometimes. Sometimes your assumptions could be wrong. For example, here's a very easy example in the NFL. Asil back me up on this. The formerly called San Diego Chargers was not because of electrical charges. It was because. Was it the guy that found that? It was a credit card thing.

[Christy Lee]

So Diners Club or something.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's just as likely that Tang was named after orangutan.

[Christy Lee]

No, it's not.

[Tom Griswold]

I expect someone to justify that with a somewhat, somewhat fictionalized essay. A treatise on. There's, you know, that thing. There's. There's no such thing as bad ideas. There are. There are no such thing as stupid questions. Yes, there are. Where do you find them on this program?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, don't worry, I'll ask plenty.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I found out some information. Tang is named after the Chinese character tang, which means sugar, to evoke sweetness and energy.

[Christy Lee]

Ah, we're all.

[Tom Griswold]

Keep reading. It's named after the famous orangutan.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Which Sugar at the.

[Chick McGee]

[Tom Griswold]

Orangutan.

Who knew?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Oh, also some World Series stuff coming up. And a pig on a skateboard.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, all right.

[Josh Arnold]

That sounds fun.

[Tom Griswold]

That sounds like an old idiom when pigs can skateboard. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios and this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Jeff OSU is at the prize pick sports desk.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, man.

[Josh Arnold]

Ace Cosby's at the board. Hello, I'm Josh Arnold at the I hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. And there is Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

I was thinking about this. We had a nice letter about my affinity for the Otis Elevator Company. And now if I go to a place and it's not an Otis, I take the stairs. That's kind of brand loyal guy. I am sure you ever notice on you like it in a really nice hotel or something. And they've got this little framed thing on the wall of the elevator that says the licensing information and safety inspection for this elevator is available at the front desk.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Does anyone in the history.

[Christy Lee]

I want to see your paperwork.

[Josh Arnold]

I may next time.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you imagine walking which anything wrong with your room, sir?

[Chick McGee]

No, no.

[Tom Griswold]

I'd like to see the the date of the inspection of the elevator before I get out.

[Josh Arnold]

If you don't Mind. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That guy has to exist legally.

[Josh Arnold]

You have to show me.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, right.

[Al Jackson]

Exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

Mr. Karen. Okay, here we go. Here is your. Got this letter. That requires a sound effect, by the way. This is about to get somebody in the room angry. All right, ready?

[Josh Arnold]

You think it'll be just one person or multiple?

[Tom Griswold]

Just one.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I think the rest of them can understand the. The big picture.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Let'S see. It goes. Sorry, that's the wrong one. Let me find it. Give me a second.

[Josh Arnold]

You're right. It did anger me.

[Chick McGee]

Do I have to look?

[Pat Godwin]

Do I have to look for the rectum of Ella Fitzgerald?

[Tom Griswold]

Although there is a new book out.

[Christy Lee]

Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

[Tom Griswold]

Sorry, Chris. About the Edmund Fitzgerald.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, just came out. The. The famous. The event made famous, even more famous by Gordon Lightfoot. I'll dig that.

[Chick McGee]

Why is there new knowledge like nothing's changed? Why are they writing new books?

[Tom Griswold]

It's the whole story about the family.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we all know the story.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it is a sad one, you're right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. But we can turn it into something rude and awful.

[Pat Godwin]

It's called Sink Fast.

[Tom Griswold]

The World We Live In. You can watch pretty much anything anytime. Although Christie was saying it's kind of hard to find. Young Frankenstein.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we were looking for it the other day. We couldn't find it. But it might be on a streaming service. I don't have. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Buy the dvd. It's one of the greatest movies ever.

[Christy Lee]

Then I have to buy a DVD.

[Tom Griswold]

Mr. Evans writes, I was watching the television show Dragnet the other day. Okay, now don't judge me here. He says, Friday's partner was shot and almost died.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no.

[Tom Griswold]

There were several scenes where people were visiting him in the hospital.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, would that be Henry Morgan?

[Christy Lee]

It was Gannon. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know which actor it was because I don't know which era of Dragnet it was.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Because it had two phases. Everyone brought him cartons of cigarettes as get well gifts in the hospital. At one point the doctor goes, haha. He'll be back to smoking soon.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

That's Mr. Evans from Wichita. How times have changed. And if you've never seen the show Dragnet. Of course.

[Josh Arnold]

Of course this doesn't help you because that's not the melon, that's not the melody.

[Christy Lee]

That's not it.

[Josh Arnold]

Nope. Some pussified theme made up.

[Tom Griswold]

Doesn't this sound like it's like Police Story?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it does. Sounds like Star Wars. That's right.

[Josh Arnold]

It is silly.

[Christy Lee]

And it's loud.

[Tom Griswold]

It's Loud.

[Al Jackson]

It's too loud.

[Josh Arnold]

I long everything about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you imagine? I wish they didn't do that again. Where the doctor goes, well, looks like you're gonna be okay. We'll be. You got a couple bullets in your belly and your lungs are fine. You'll be smoking against him. Would you like a Camel straight? Thanks, doc.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. You watch those old movies? They're smoking right there in their hospital beds.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And the doctors are too.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It's crazy.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought that was a nice, nice moment in the Pit where you actually saw health professionals go out for a smoke.

[Tom Griswold]

That's very realistic.

[Josh Arnold]

Of course. Yeah. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

That stress.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Heck, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You can see how unhealthy it is. She goes out for a smoke and.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you don't need. Spoiler alert. No, you don't need to spoil anything.

[Chick McGee]

I'm not there yet.

[Tom Griswold]

You're not?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Pat Godwin]

So good.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you watching the Pit?

[Chick McGee]

We are, but we're trying to line up times where me and her together at the same time to finish it. It's been an issue.

[Pat Godwin]

Don't cheat on.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't ruin.

[Chick McGee]

Don't ruin it for me.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And we talked about that yesterday. If you're watching something with your significant other, you have to ask permission. If, say, they go out of town, you go, hey, do you mind if I watch this episode of Task while you're gone?

[Josh Arnold]

I will never live that way, ever. Ever.

[Pat Godwin]

No, I watch everything by myself.

[Chick McGee]

It's respect.

[Josh Arnold]

I will never be in a respectful relationship. To me, true love is about disrespect.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Do we have. Are we digitally recording this? So when the day comes a few years down the road, Josh comes in.

[Christy Lee]

Well, hey, I married last night.

[Tom Griswold]

Had to sleep on the couch last night. Oh, how come? Well, I was watching one of those harm Hallmark movies that I'd been watching with Fill in the Blank, and I watched that ahead of her. I told her what happened.

[Josh Arnold]

You think I would ever come in here and admit something like that?

[Pat Godwin]

There was a time you might have, but not anymore.

[Christy Lee]

Ten years you've been here, you've learned.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this your 10th anniversary?

[Christy Lee]

Ninth, I think.

[Josh Arnold]

Isn't it 2016. Yeah. Nine. It's been nine in what, a month?

[Pat Godwin]

Number nine.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you going to keep your job? Nine. Coming up, we have a variety of things, including a special appearance from comedian Al Jackson. Speaking of stand up comedy, Willie G. And Greg Hahn go bananas.

[Christy Lee]

Hi.

[Josh Arnold]

Sitting in for Pat Godwin right now. It's a new gentleman we just met named Allergic Angelo.

[Pat Godwin]

It must have been a pollen.

[Josh Arnold]

Having some trouble over there.

[Pat Godwin]

I am indeed a sneeze. Sneeze.

[Tom Griswold]

That's my favorite of your songs. It must have been a fallen.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Jeff Oscar at the Prize Picks Sports desk.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, man.

[Josh Arnold]

Ace Cosby. Do you have allergies? Every now and then. Are you. What are you allergic to? Do you know that's a poison a little stronger. Josh Arnold, the IH Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, there are too many love songs. Maybe, Luigi, you should write songs about allergies.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, no kidding.

[Christy Lee]

I'm everybody's suffering right now.

[Pat Godwin]

Is that y'?

[Chick McGee]

All?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, man. I'm rubbing my eyes.

[Tom Griswold]

I have a. I know these are dumb questions, Josh. Is there a seasonality to the sale of Kleenex.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I would. They kind of.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, is there.

[Josh Arnold]

You'll see more. Yeah, you'll see more Kleenex ads or end caps during.

[Christy Lee]

Now in the fall when kids. Yeah, kids have to bring Kleenex to school sometimes for supplies.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

That might have been a tier two failure to get.

[Tom Griswold]

Failure to get into the sorority. Yeah. Okay. I'm just curious if things like that go. And, I mean, I guess everything goes in some kind of a cycle. Although I assume toilet paper is fairly steady.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe, you know, the day after Cinco de Mayo or something.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Because they always do that thing where they measure the super bowl by flushes. Flushes during commercial breaks and all that. You have to wonder. I know during COVID there was that whole thing where you couldn't get toilet.

[Josh Arnold]

Paper all over that was people overreacting to shortage of toilet paper.

[Tom Griswold]

There's probably still some jackass that has. He can't park in his garage because.

[Josh Arnold]

It'S full of toilet. Yeah, McGee admits it. He has tons of paper towels and toilet paper.

[Christy Lee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Certainly good to know. Well, welcome back to the Bob and Town program. Thanks very much for joining us. We're thrilled to have you here with us. Coming up a little bit later on, comedian Al Jackson.

[Josh Arnold]

But I have a weird thing with paper towels. I've never told anybody about this, but I'm interested to know. So, you know when you buy like an eight pack or a 12 pack or something.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

If you open it, sometimes those rolls are individually wrapped within the pack. Sometimes they're not. Sometimes they're in twos. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. When you open up a two pack and. Oh, I should also preface. I leave my paper towels in the garage. The big case.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay. Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

So when I take a roll and I put it inside, I really wrap up that second roll so that in my mind, it doesn't get stale. I feel like the paper towels would dry out and get really crispy.

[Tom Griswold]

They might. Actually, the opposite might happen. They might absorb a lot of moisture and get full of mold.

[Christy Lee]

I thought you were gonna say, I don't want the mice getting in there and making beds with it. Because I'll take your paper towels and.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's happened.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they'll take the. They'll pull out the paper towels to use as bedding.

[Pat Godwin]

I thought you were gonna say the four pack is. Is the way to go now because the two pack is dead.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, two pack secure.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute. Oh, stop the show. I. I'm out of a.

[Pat Godwin]

That's what I thought Josh was gonna say.

[Josh Arnold]

Bring the show to a grinding hall.

[Pat Godwin]

Not me.

[Tom Griswold]

I like this. I like this. Attributed. Why would I do a crappy joke to somebody else?

[Pat Godwin]

Why would I do a bad joke?

[Tom Griswold]

That's very good. Nice. Nicely done.

[Christy Lee]

I. I don't do that. No.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I. I insist on the paper towels that are the shorter. When you tear them you only get the 6 inches instead of getting the full foot.

[Christy Lee]

I do too.

[Josh Arnold]

I do.

[Christy Lee]

Select the size.

[Tom Griswold]

Select the size.

[Josh Arnold]

I think you're hard pressed finding the full sheet these days. But maybe I haven't looked hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh no. They're out there.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, I want a full sheet.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. I didn't purchase them. I don't think somebody did.

[Pat Godwin]

Guys are blowing my mind.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll take them if you want to get rid of.

[Tom Griswold]

I may. I don't like them. It's a waste.

[Josh Arnold]

But I like wasting.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Okay, let's. Have we finished? End of everything in the sporting scene.

[Chick McGee]

We have. No, actually we got a few more things. The Blue Jays manager. The World Series starts tonight. The Blue Jays manager John Schneider is waiting for Shohei Ohtani to return some items to the Toronto Blue Jays. Well, that guy Steve, apparently before signing his 700 million dollar contract with the Dodgers, he met with Blue Jay officials back in 23 in December he was given a jacket and a hat during their meeting which apparently his dog wears the jacket now. And they want the jacket and the hat back. Oh no, no.

[Josh Arnold]

Those were gifts. Whether or not he signed with them or not. In my opinion.

[Tom Griswold]

Anything to a dog.

[Al Jackson]

Is he at.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, a huge dog.

[Tom Griswold]

What's the famous Japanese dog in Akita? What is it?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Or the Sharpe.

[Tom Griswold]

Those are shinies. Oh, those are Chinese and those have gone into disfavor.

[Christy Lee]

I've the Sharpe.

[Chick McGee]

Too many wrinkles.

[Tom Griswold]

They were. They were everywhere in the. In the early 80s.

[Christy Lee]

Dogs are. Now it's the corgi. Everybody's getting a corgi. Have you noticed this? Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

See?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no. They're. They're sweet. I just.

[Josh Arnold]

They're very cute.

[Tom Griswold]

Not for me.

[Chick McGee]

I'm getting a corgi doodle.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh yeah? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you serious?

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Christy Lee]

It'd be nice to have a corgi doodle because that's the only problem I have. A cork with corgis is they shed so much.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a doodle of everything at the. These days.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

The big thing with doodles is.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

They're hypoallergenic.

[Chick McGee]

They don't shed but what they don't tell you when I got my two doodles you have they. Their hair grows. So I spend way more grip. Well, I spend way more grooming anything than myself.

[Tom Griswold]

But clearly.

[Chick McGee]

But hundreds of dollars a month goes to grooming these dogs because their hair continues to grow. And no one really tells you locked.

[Christy Lee]

In there because they were.

[Tom Griswold]

They were developed in Australia, I don't know, 30, 40 years ago to. Originally the idea was to create a dog that if someone needed a seeing eye dog for example. But they were allergic to dogs.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. So that took.

[Tom Griswold]

Poodles were so smart and they wanted the gentleness of a lab. And that's. That was the whole. I see beginning of the doodle. And now they're everywhere.

[Christy Lee]

Now there's a doodle of every kind. He's right. A doodle. A golden doodle.

[Tom Griswold]

The giraffe doodle. That's the one with the really long neck.

[Christy Lee]

The dock. A doodle.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But they are not necessarily by the way, just as a true thing. Not all of them are. If you have allergies, you got to kind of go test the dog.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm just trying to. I'm trying to understand the popularity of them.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Keep the ood a lot of my dog.

[Josh Arnold]

I like short hair dogs. So I'm not a. That's. That's why it's baffling.

[Chick McGee]

I like the no dog hair of my stuff.

[Christy Lee]

Me too.

[Tom Griswold]

That's.

[Chick McGee]

That was always my problem with any dog. I hate animal hair on my clothes.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't have that issue.

[Tom Griswold]

It's worth it though. You get a nice golden retriever and they're your best friend.

[Chick McGee]

I have a golden doodle. I have the best of both worlds.

[Tom Griswold]

My golden retriever agrees with everything I say. He thinks I'm a genius.

[Chick McGee]

Mine doesn't have too high a thoughts about me.

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, I win. What else is happening in sports? Stupid world record.

[Chick McGee]

A pet pig in Illinois has broken the Guinness world record with his skateboarding skills. The five year old mini pig named Norbert officially claimed the title for the fastest 10 meters pushing a skateboard by a pig after his 11.32 second long ride. I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

We have the video of this. There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

There's.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. He's a black pig with kind of a white face and he's on top of the skateboard and you can see.

[Josh Arnold]

The one foot would come down to help scoot him along.

[Chick McGee]

The pig's nickname, Tony Pork. Named after Tony Hawk.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a stretch.

[Tom Griswold]

They missed it.

[Josh Arnold]

No. Tony Hogg.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it should be Tony Hogg. Yeah, it's closer to Tony Hawk.

[Josh Arnold]

It is, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

According to the owner, Norbert's affinity for skateboarding began a few years ago. He said, I left my board from when I was a kid, so I figured I'd try it with him. I went outside, laid the board down, took out some unsalted peanuts as treats. In about 15 minutes, I had him standing on the board. After a couple more sessions, he was pushing himself down the street.

[Josh Arnold]

Immediately took to it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, pig's very smart. And there's a pig, a doodle right there.

[Chick McGee]

Must be.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But a skateboarding pig, doesn't that sound kind of like a. An expression where you'd go and tell you what, that chick, she's faster than a pig in a skateboard. You get her in the back of a car.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Tony Pork. Why wouldn't you go with Tony Hogg?

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

That's so much better.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, some people aren't us. That's the problem.

[Tom Griswold]

I wouldn't say that's the problem. I say that's, that's, that's a good thing.

[Chick McGee]

And that's sports.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, thank you very much. Pig on a skateboard. Well worth the digging up that photograph. And I think. I think they do have a video somewhere of this of Norbert. Norbert doing his. Norbert doing his skateboarding. What's coming up in the news, Christy Lee?

[Christy Lee]

Coming up, we have another survey about what Gen zers want to see. On screen, we have the interesting story. If you have macular degeneration, there could be a sight returning to your eye.

[Tom Griswold]

It's amazing.

[Christy Lee]

Mosquitoes have been found in Iceland for the first time.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. One of the. One of the few advantages of living in.

[Christy Lee]

Living in Iceland.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, there are no mosquitoes. We got that.

[Pat Godwin]

Iceland is green, though, and Greenland is ice.

[Tom Griswold]

Right?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They tried to trick you there.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, thank you very much.

[Christy Lee]

[Announcer]

So far we've discussed people we love.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't tell you guys. Cuban emailed.

[Chick McGee]

What are you wearing? Well, no, that's not.

[Tom Griswold]

Things we love. Got way into typewriters.

[Josh Arnold]

How many typewriters do you own?

[Tom Griswold]

Let's not podcast anymore.

[Chick McGee]

Guesstimate.

[Tom Griswold]

It's time to get really down and dirty. These are great ideas. Start a podcast and forget to promote it on social media.

[Josh Arnold]

So what is our podcast about?

[Pat Godwin]

You know, whatever we feel like.

[Announcer]

The musers the podcast. Follow and listen on your favorite platform.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi there. Bob and Tom Show. Here live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, there's Christy Lee in the Silac Insurance Company news desk. Hi, Pat Godwin's over there. Hey, get ready for a big move. Yeah, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

And by the way, this is a coincidence. I'll just be brief. I'm having a pizza party on Tuesday at 11:00am how are you?

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. That sounds so nice of you.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Do you have beer too?

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Josh Arnold]

No strings attached.

[Pat Godwin]

No, no.

[Tom Griswold]

All right. Maybe carry a couple boxes.

[Pat Godwin]

Just so happens.

[Josh Arnold]

Wait, what's this about the box? Oh, pizza boxes, of course, is what he means. Can I get mine to go?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go. Thank you.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Jeff. Oscar at the Price big sports ace. Cosby's getting his pizza to go.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm Josh Arnold, the I hate Stephen Singer sidekick chair. And there's Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, thank you very much. I had an interesting story yesterday, Pat. I don't remember this. It involved. Do we have the photograph still? It involved the connection between smiling and the purported length of one's womb. Yeah, yeah. Of the male member. It's apparently this, of course, is this. This particular science comes to us from the Internet where, let's just say a lot of bad, bad science is floating around. And the notion here is. Chris, did you remember that basically, it's this. This group claims you can judge the length of the male member.

[Christy Lee]

Basically, yeah. Can you tell the size of a male's. A man's male member? It's often described by looking at a picture and telling that a smirk that the guy has is both confident and a little smug. Like, yeah, I am. I'm a happy guy because I know what I got back here.

[Chick McGee]

So what does the puss on my face represent?

[Christy Lee]

Sadness.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, what?

[Pat Godwin]

Can't say that.

[Tom Griswold]

So there's a connection there. There you go. There's a photograph of. Oh, there's. That's. That's me and Pat.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you seem to be quite happy.

[Christy Lee]

Mr. Stephen Brenland helped feel the discussion online after posting a video explaining that quote, only a certain group of men can do this smile.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, there you go.

[Christy Lee]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

So by the way, there is a famous doctor, Dr. Rena Malik, who is a urologist, says there is no expression, posture or gesture that correlates with the size of the male member. So I guess you might want to believe this physician, but, Pat, you have a tribute to this.

[Pat Godwin]

Your pants are overflowing. Put on a smiley face. Your bulge is always showing. Put on a big D face. But if you're hung like a hamster, fake them out with a smile. Ladies will say, damn, sir, I'll bet you're packing like that guy in the three Mile.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

If you have a stub like Ken Jeong, put on a well hung face. A tiny dinkledger, small dong. Still, put on a happy face. Let your lower lip hang and they'll think you have a big wang. So put on a well hung face.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, thank you very much.

[Josh Arnold]

My Favorite two words in that song. Damn, sir. I just love the idea of a woman walking up to a man and kind of seeing a ball. Damn, sir.

[Christy Lee]

I'd be going damn, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

You know the, the, the source of that parody, Anybody put on a happy face. Yeah, from what I know this will be. You're gonna be mad when I tell you.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

If only Chick were here, he'd be really mad.

[Josh Arnold]

South Pacific.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's from.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's Happy Talk. Ah, that's where that song started. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Dick Van Dyke.

[Pat Godwin]

Didn't Judy Garland make it a hit though, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, she did a big hit of that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But great song. I've. We've just of course ruined it. Disrespected in the most profound way. But good to know. Thank you very much, Pat. By the way, did I mention this? Pat Godwin, live and in person, Saturday night only at the legendary Mason City Limits Comedy Club in Mason City, Illinois. One night only. You're gonna do music and comedy?

[Pat Godwin]

Yes, that's the way we're promoting it.

[Tom Griswold]

That.

[Pat Godwin]

I've never done comedy before. Greg Hahn is the best comedian I've ever seen.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat Godwin socks. Greg Hahn, by the way, with Willie G. Blue Ash, Ohio. The great go bananas tonight, tomorrow and Sunday. But right now we head over to the SILAC insurance news desk where one finds Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Let's do some more science. Some women out there are taking high doses of testosterone to supercharge their libidos. This according to the New York Times. Though there is no FDA approved therapy for women, a growing number of middle aged women are seeking out non traditional venues to obtain testosterone and are paying out of pocket for it.

[Tom Griswold]

When they say non traditional venues, do they mean they're buying it? It like you'd buy steroids at the gym with you got to know a.

[Christy Lee]

Guy, you might probably just go online and get it.

[Tom Griswold]

You can just buy. Is testosterone. I don't know. What is it?

[Christy Lee]

It's a controlled substance.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it a pill or is it like a.

[Christy Lee]

Mine comes in a. It depends. I know it is a certain controlled substance because my doctor had to call it in. And it. There's some way it works? I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

How do you take it?

[Christy Lee]

I take mine in a lozenge with estrogen and progesterone.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

And testosterone. All three.

[Tom Griswold]

Excuse me.

[Josh Arnold]

I gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

At least get four. But please let her get it out.

[Chick McGee]

Sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

So you. But you don't. You take relatively small doses?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. I don't take the butt. I don't Right off the. Take it up the butt.

[Pat Godwin]

You know, it's the one ingredients and one ingredient that makes a woman's libido really fire up.

[Josh Arnold]

What's that?

[Christy Lee]

A charge card?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. It's you.

[Al Jackson]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You need a dose of God. One baby. Take two of me and call me in the morning.

[Christy Lee]

Latin American Express, that always.

[Josh Arnold]

Take two of me and don't call me.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, please don't call.

[Tom Griswold]

So the. This.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. So the one woman told the Times, the New York Times, it's changed her marriage, adding sex with her hubby went from never to six times a week. Another woman said she rediscovered her attraction to her husband, adding, quote, my body would heat up just him walking in the room. Tammy Nelson, a sex therapist in California, though, said testosterone increased her libido, but made her so irritable. She said, I wanted to have sex with my husband, but I was just too pissed off at him to do it.

[Tom Griswold]

This is. Yeah, that guy. No kidding.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I know a lot of ladies don't need a testosterone for that.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right. That's a dosage issue. I believe it is. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. However, taking really high doses is not recommended because it does cause adverse side effects like hair loss, abnormal hair growth on the body, and voice changes. And some of those are not reversible. So be very careful. Go to a physician.

[Tom Griswold]

You've got a love stache, baby.

[Josh Arnold]

Love stache, baby.

[Tom Griswold]

That. So that you could grow sideburns in a mustache or something.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah. If you take it. I mean, you'd have to take a lot, I would think. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I want a girl who could do me and then go out and split a rick of wood.

[Tom Griswold]

Beat you in an arm wrestling match. Interesting.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it really does help. I mean, some people post menopause, but.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, the one lady said there was no sex at all, then all of a sudden, what was it, five.

[Josh Arnold]

Six times a week now you consulted a physician?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Yeah, absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe also do that if you're interested in this lady's.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, don't go. Don't go on the Internet.

[Tom Griswold]

What happens if. When men take it?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, a few things happen. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

That's why we have low T spots a lot. I mean, a lot of guys do.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they? But do they have the same side effect in terms of their. Excuse me, what's the technical term? Horniness. Is that right, Ace?

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Josh Arnold]

Low T definitely affects the libido. So if you have. If that gets better, your libido could go up. But synthetic testosterone will cause your body to stop creating its own Testosterone. So you're on it for life.

[Christy Lee]

You have to be very careful.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, I'm just asking. I don't know. Interesting stuff. Christy Lee is over there. You can see her at the SILAC insurance news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Our science hunk continues.

[Tom Griswold]

We have more.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. A new study out there created the first evidence based dietary guidelines for chronic constipation.

[Josh Arnold]

Chronic constipation.

[Christy Lee]

Scientists at King's College London found that kiwi rye bread and mineral rich water reduce the discomfort of chronic constipation.

[Josh Arnold]

So fiber and lubrication.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we didn't know that.

[Tom Griswold]

It has to be rye bread, apparently. Okay.

[Christy Lee]

The research also found supplements such as psyllium fiber, certain probiotics and magnesium oxide may provide additional.

[Josh Arnold]

These are all tried and true.

[Christy Lee]

Reading.

[Tom Griswold]

What I'm handed isn't psyllium husk, what Metamucil is. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

That's the ingredient.

[Christy Lee]

Psyllium fiber. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

I just think it's so funny that it's kiwis and rye bread. So if you're a New Zealander of the Jewish faith, you're flowing like Niagara Falls. Why rye bread is that.

[Christy Lee]

There must be something in the rye. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

And kiwis are. That's the fruit. Right.

[Josh Arnold]

And just so high in fiber.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that readily available here in the United.

[Christy Lee]

Kiwis.

[Pat Godwin]

Kiwis, yeah, I get them all. I eat those every other day.

[Tom Griswold]

I go to the store, but I have a limited vision to destroy. I know exactly where my stuff is and I don't look at anything.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

Do you guys eat the skin?

[Josh Arnold]

I do.

[Pat Godwin]

I love the skin.

[Josh Arnold]

It's very healthy for me.

[Pat Godwin]

I really like it.

[Christy Lee]

I do.

[Chick McGee]

I ate it. And then somebody's like, oh, you weren't supposed to be eating that. I was like, oh, oh, yeah, you're fine.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You really should. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What about my oranges?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. The body needs at least. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Four rinds a day. No matter what they are.

[Tom Griswold]

Make it work.

[Pat Godwin]

Make your body work.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Now a full watermelon rind. You don't need to. Oh, yeah, yeah. Just maybe half.

[Tom Griswold]

Every time we mention something like this, though, we get a letter and there's always somebody that they'll. There'll be something where they. I always eat the banana peel.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

There's always some weirdo that I wonder.

[Josh Arnold]

If there is anything in the banana peel that would be.

[Pat Godwin]

It doesn't taste good.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, that's. That's kind of your body's way of knowing, right? Yeah, yeah. There's a reason it doesn't taste good.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't chimps peel it, too?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they figured that out pretty early on, right? Out in the wild?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Are there places where they have chimps and real wild bananas, or do they have to get them at the store like we do?

[Pat Godwin]

That's a good question.

[Josh Arnold]

There must know. They have to be.

[Christy Lee]

The only time I've ever seen bananas growing in the wild was in St. Lucia. St. Lucia?

[Chick McGee]

I toured a banana plantation down in Zuatanejo on a little donkey.

[Christy Lee]

Where?

[Chick McGee]

Zuatanejo.

[Josh Arnold]

I've never been from. Shawshank Redemption.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

No kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That's where we had our honeymoon at.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

And were you on, like, whatever that stuff is. Ayahuasca. Were you high?

[Chick McGee]

No, I was on a. The day before. The night before, I had taken a Viagra for the honeymoon to get things kicked off. Right.

[Josh Arnold]

I see.

[Chick McGee]

That doesn't wear off in 24 hours. So the entire burrow ride, I was just. You were rigid to the point I had to tuck up because it was chafing on the saddle. Whoa.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah. That's some. That's. I don't think that's. That doesn't happen to everybody.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I don't think at the time, I should have been using it like I was 20 years younger.

[Tom Griswold]

You really didn't need it?

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

And, man. About five steps into the ride, he came to life, and I was like, this is going to be a long burrow, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Yikes.

[Josh Arnold]

How was the banana tour?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, it was cool.

[Josh Arnold]

Aren't they, like, just littered in tarantulas?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I didn't see any of this.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I know spiders like them.

[Christy Lee]

We're not done with our science hunk.

[Tom Griswold]

So this last one, though. So they're saying you're supposed. If you have chronic constipation, you're supposed to eat. What was it again?

[Christy Lee]

Fiber. You're supposed to eat fiber.

[Josh Arnold]

We all know magnesium's great for the digestive system as our probiotics.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Josh Arnold]

It's all about gut health, I think.

[Christy Lee]

I think those folks in London are just behind the times a little bit.

[Chick McGee]

Gas station sushi works really good, too, I've discovered.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that because you throw it all up or.

[Chick McGee]

No, it's coming out.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you know diarrhea can sometimes be a form of constipation? It's your body's way of trying to get whatever's stuck in there out, so it loosens as much, try to flush it out.

[Christy Lee]

Could we talk about anything else?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, Even weirded out Tom with that.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just wondering how they did this test, though. I mean, do they. Do they give some people. Is it a controlled situation where they give him the rye bread, you know, and give this guy cheese?

[Christy Lee]

That's not a fair.

[Tom Griswold]

Call him up the next morning. So, Earl, how did you do?

[Josh Arnold]

I have rye bread almost every weekend. And I dip it. I get rye toast and I dip it in my grits. Now it's delicious.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, that's interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

You immediately hated it.

[Christy Lee]

I don't like rye bread.

[Josh Arnold]

It's delicious.

[Chick McGee]

I've always found grits with a pastrami.

[Tom Griswold]

No, grits are tasteless.

[Josh Arnold]

No, they taste real good.

[Christy Lee]

They're very good.

[Pat Godwin]

Get a good Celtic salt on there.

[Christy Lee]

They'll make them in like 10 different flavors. Do you know what I'm talking about?

[Al Jackson]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And I don't get the flavored. I just like the plain with butter.

[Chick McGee]

Do you like savory or sweet?

[Pat Godwin]

I.

[Josh Arnold]

To me, the best grits. Have a little bit of both.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay.

[Pat Godwin]

Have you ever kissed someone's grits?

[Josh Arnold]

Kiss my grits.

[Tom Griswold]

I've heard it advertised. I'm sorry. Back to the science desk.

[Christy Lee]

An electronic chip developed by Stanford Medicine could help the blind see again. The tiny wireless chip placed at the back of your eye, combined with a pair of advanced smart glasses, was shown to partially restore vision to people suffering from an advanced form of age related macular degeneration.

[Josh Arnold]

This is what like Jordy had in Star Trek the Next Generation.

[Christy Lee]

In a clinical study, 27 of 32 participants regained the ability to read within a year of receiving the implant.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing.

[Christy Lee]

It's called Prima P R I M A. And it's the first prosthetic eye device to restore usable vision to individuals with otherwise untreatable vision loss. This is a big story.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. My mom had macular degeneration.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, she. Thank you, Josh. She ended up being blind.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And. Yeah, this is great. I mean, but it has kind of a James Bond feel.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, the. You can.

[Josh Arnold]

Like a villain would have.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The man with the diamond eye. The electron. That's right. The electronic. The electronic eye. That's really cool, though. Great technology. Is it available yet or is it still in the experimental stage?

[Christy Lee]

It sounds like it's still in the experimental stage, but.

[Tom Griswold]

But I heard the problem with it was if you get this, because it kind of. It's sort of like projecting onto the thing. It's sort of like cable tv and you. And you have to get the ads. So I heard that you can get the 4K Netflix. But it's an extra 10.99amonth worth it to get the. To get the ad free. It's just like the guac. Still extra. You know what I'm saying?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Okay, so scientists have figured out how to cure it is in a way, macular degeneration.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe the beginning of.

[Josh Arnold]

I wish they'd figure out how to create Macklemore degeneration. I would like to see that guy disappear.

[Tom Griswold]

I think he did. I think you got you.

[Josh Arnold]

What a douche.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now if you're. By the way, Josh.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, he's great.

[Josh Arnold]

That guy's a punk. Why? I just don't like the look of.

[Chick McGee]

Them and his rapid over beats. I am not a fan.

[Josh Arnold]

I know nothing about. Yeah, I don't either.

[Tom Griswold]

But I bet he's doing the super bowl the year after next. Josh, if you've been considering. If you're concerned about blindness, if you've been considering cutting back on your masturbation, this is a. This is a golden ticket for you. You're going to be all right. By the time you. You've gone blind, they'll have it cure and over. You're right.

[Josh Arnold]

If only they could cure my tennis elbow and my arthritic knuckles.

[Tom Griswold]

If only the cure were pizza consumption.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, wouldn't that be something?

[Tom Griswold]

You have the eyes of an eagle.

[Josh Arnold]

That's all right. Revenge doesn't have to come swiftly, my friend.

[Pat Godwin]

And it comes in many forms.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it going to come in in the form of a eulogy?

[Josh Arnold]

You think I would attend your funeral?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's contingent on you're getting a chunk of my will. We will return. We do have. I forgot about that. We have the story of the guy that has. I guess we'll call it Diamond Eye.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Plus, we gotta have a song from Pat Goddard and I can't tell you why, but it involves yet another highway spill. Oh, sure, it's a running gag on this show. Anytime a truck, a truck wrecks and spills something on the road, we've got a song about it. Plus, we have the interesting story. Do chimpanzees have the same rights as humans? Well, it was. There was a settlement in a court just the other day. We're gonna find out what it was here in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

Hey, thanks for listening this morning. Got something to say? Send us an email. Bob and [e-mail].

[Tom Griswold]

This Sunday. Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I like.

[Josh Arnold]

I watch Rocky Horror. So I just want to talk like Riff Raff all day. Yes, it's astounding. Christy Lee is at the Silac Insurance Company news desk.

[Christy Lee]

That's very good. It is good, man.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Pat Godwin at the music area.

[Tom Griswold]

I love this. Josh walking out on the diving board with a blindfold on. Jeff. Oscar at the Prize picks sports desk.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, man, let's do the time warp again. There's Ace Cosby. I'm Josh Arnold at the I Hate Steven Singer.

[Tom Griswold]

Could you introduce me as Peter Laurie?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I wonder if I can do a Peter Lawyer. A lawyer. Can we do Peter Laurie lawyer?

[Tom Griswold]

That's. That's right. Your Honor, would you approach the bench?

[Chick McGee]

Yes, please.

[Josh Arnold]

And Tom Greswold at the Master Control. What an astounding character actor.

[Tom Griswold]

What a weirdo.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, somebody was probably married to Peter Lorre. Of course, honey, we have dinner with the Richmonds tonight.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't bring the Falcon. Rick.

[Christy Lee]

We watched a movie the other night called Isle of the Dead.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. Val Lewton, I think.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. I didn't realize Boris Karloff. Was that his hair in that movie?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I'd have to.

[Christy Lee]

It was like a. It was gray and curly and just. I did. I was astounded by. I couldn't stop looking at it. It was amazing.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Have you seen Isle of the Dead?

[Tom Griswold]

No, but I'm a big Boris Karloff fan and I. I told you the story the other day that the. The great song Monster Mash, which still generates, by some estimates, a million bucks a year in royalties. But whatever it is, it's still every year makes Bobby. Boris Pickett based that voice on Boris Karloff and the Karloff family. And Mr. Karloff never got any money for it, but he thought it was cool. And there's actually. He actually performed the Monster Mash song a couple of times. The real Boris Carloff.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's cool.

[Tom Griswold]

And there is currently a terrific set of commercials that have the Karloff era Frankenstein monster from the famous Frankenstein movie. I get. Was that the first one at least? The most famous one, probably. Boris Karloff as the monster terrified me as a kid. There's a great set of commercials right now featuring the monster. And he's getting his bangs cut. It's very funny.

[Christy Lee]

Did you know that he had his own weekly children's radio show at one time?

[Tom Griswold]

Boris Karloff?

[Christy Lee]

Yep. It was called Boris Karloff's Treasure Chest. It was on WNEW New York in 1950. He played children's music and told stories and riddles.

[Josh Arnold]

That's Fun. He works for that. He was the narrator of the Grinch. So his voice works.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's the classic.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I forgot about that.

[Tom Griswold]

And with AI, maybe they'll be able to, I hope with the proper royalties, bring Mr. Karloff's voice back because there's nothing like it. It's so great.

[Christy Lee]

I enjoyed him in this. His hair was amazing. It was. It has one of my biggest fears in life. Being buried alive.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I thought you were gonna say having bad hair.

[Christy Lee]

No, I've always had bad hair.

[Tom Griswold]

You have great. Are you kidding? Well, you have great hair.

[Christy Lee]

You're very kind. Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute. Let's vote. Excellent.

[Chick McGee]

Great.

[Tom Griswold]

Hands up. She's got great hair.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you.

[Josh Arnold]

I'd have to see all of your hair.

[Tom Griswold]

Going down vulgar road. Ace. Apparently abstaining.

[Josh Arnold]

I.

[Tom Griswold]

This. That makes no sense to me.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You said great.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Very good.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good.

[Christy Lee]

I did get blessed by the color fairies because I don't have to do anything. It just does this.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way. You're saying you were blessed by the fairies. Call her. And she's not calling us.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Christy Lee]

You know what I meant.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I try to clear. I try to clarify the. The potentially damaging comments that made in this show that are always in. They're always offensive.

[Christy Lee]

You guys make them offensive because you did that.

[Josh Arnold]

Christie is innocent. We just make you look so guilty.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. What have you got over there?

[Christy Lee]

In the world of news, An Alabama jeweler. But a two carat diamond in his artificial eye. Mr. Slater Jones lost his right eye to illness and asked ocularist John Lim to design a one of a kind prosthetic. The results, an artificial eye with a real 2 carat diamond embedded in the center.

[Josh Arnold]

Why not? That's cool.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. He told Oddity Central, I lost my eye. But it brought new light into my life.

[Josh Arnold]

I see.

[Christy Lee]

What if somebody steals your eye?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I. I just googled this. Have you seen a picture of this?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Christy Lee]

We have a picture of this.

[Tom Griswold]

It's. God. How do I describe it? What. What's the black part of your eye though, in the middle? The dot?

[Josh Arnold]

Cornea. The pupil.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the pupil. Okay. It's. It's like a gigantic pupil. It's a huge diamond.

[Christy Lee]

Two carat is a big diamond. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

What shape is it? Round.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's round. And it's.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, I would have gone with something like an emerald.

[Tom Griswold]

It's kind of disturbing. I mean, I'm not sure I can. It's sort of distracting.

[Chick McGee]

It could be worse. At least the guy wasn't a plumber walking around with a brown aisle.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, yeah, but I get. Hey, you know, more power to him. But it's. It's. I'd be concerned someone would steal it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

What I said it'd be.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, it's undeniably a diamond, and right now it's bloodshot to all hell. Is that the picture you're seeing?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, I wonder if it stays like that.

[Josh Arnold]

It looks just bloody with a cool diamond in it, but hopefully it'll look better.

[Chick McGee]

Well, he shouldn't have went with a blood diamond.

[Josh Arnold]

This lady did 14 karat gold in her eye. And that looks awesome.

[Christy Lee]

There we go. This is probably a better.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Is that the picture you're looking at? But it's disturbed because it's not bloodshot. Here, Josh. Okay, take a look. Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Looks way better there. Yeah, Good.

[Tom Griswold]

And do you remember the story about Mick Jagger when he got. His daughter's name's Jade, so he had a jade stone put in his front tooth up here.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And everyone thought he always had, like, a piece of spinach in his mouth. So this is true. And so he had it taken out and had a diamond put in.

[Al Jackson]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And that was early, and that was in the 70s, so it was pre bling. Is that still a thing where they get the fake braces put on and.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, sure. The grill.

[Tom Griswold]

The grill, yeah. That's incredibly dumb. What's the point of that again?

[Chick McGee]

Just to show how much money you have.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a lot easier ways to do that.

[Christy Lee]

This is what it looks like outside of the eye. You would think it would be pretty easy to get. You could wrestle him to the ground and just.

[Josh Arnold]

I know you are kind of asked to be.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, right.

[Tom Griswold]

But it does also, to me, like I said, it's kind of like a James Bond villain. Well, Mr. Bond, I have all of your money because I am Diamond Eye.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what I would do? I would get the little. I would get a little tiny James Bond with the gun. Oh, cool. Like everybody beginning where that.

[Chick McGee]

That iris would.

[Tom Griswold]

Because eventually I'm sure they'll be able to have a video playing in there. Whoa.

[Josh Arnold]

In your glass eye.

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

They could put a chip in there of some sort that would just constantly.

[Josh Arnold]

Play look at the Earth spinning.

[Tom Griswold]

Or how nuts would it be talking to that guy? I'm sorry, could you please shut your one eye? I can't focus because I keep watching the show.

[Al Jackson]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

So anyway. Yeah, that's. That's Kind of cool. I understand it cost an arm and a leg. It's kind of.

[Josh Arnold]

Where's the where? Is there a joke there?

[Christy Lee]

There wasn't.

[Josh Arnold]

That was minus comment.

[Tom Griswold]

No, his eyes. He missing his eye cost an arm and a leg.

[Josh Arnold]

Just more body parts and you double down.

[Christy Lee]

He's saying it costs almost $2 million to make that. I don't believe that for a.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, how much is the diamond? I don't know. What was it?

[Christy Lee]

Well, a two karat diamond would run you probably around 50 grand. What I can't imagine the rest of it would be.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, the glass eyes don't cost a million dollars.

[Christy Lee]

No, I mean, it does have a, it does have beautiful cut and clarity. I will say.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you wouldn't want that if it, if the, if the diamond wasn't a good one. Hey, do you have cataracts? Your fake eye looks, looks kind of, kind of milky in there. What's coming up in the world of news, Christy Lee?

[Christy Lee]

Well, we're going to talk about gen zers and what they want to see more or less on screen. We have a jazz band and, and farm cows. Did you see this?

[Josh Arnold]

The same story.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, a gig is a gig, right? Where are you playing tonight?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, we had a guy that lost an eye and we have a bunny that has no ears. But we'll talk about how they helped that little guy.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I saw that. That's, that's a sweet story. Wooden spoons, little bunny with little bunny new ears.

[Josh Arnold]

Stay up three years.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, just staple them all on. That'll work. We are ruining lives everywhere. From the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios, this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, thank you very much.

[Christy Lee]

I know this isn't where we do our letter segment, but we missed a letter that I think we need to.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I got a bunch of. What do you.

[Christy Lee]

Go ahead. This is from Sean. Sean says, good morning, idiots. And Christy Lee.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Christy Lee]

I know how Tom loves a good wacky car. In New Hartford, New York, the new L.L. bean is having a grand opening. Big fan of the L.L. bean store.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

They have the Bootmobile on site.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that sounds fun.

[Christy Lee]

Have you seen the Bootmobile? It's probably in your email. Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

That's kick ass.

[Christy Lee]

Spectacular, right?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you, Sean, for sharing.

[Tom Griswold]

Could we get all those vehicles together just once?

[Josh Arnold]

That would be fun.

[Christy Lee]

And have a race.

[Tom Griswold]

The Wiener Mobile we are working on. Do we have any luck with the banana guy? We're trying to get the banana mobile here.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

And that's the one where the. The. How do I describe this? It's like in a. Like in a biplane where the pilots up front, then the passenger is right behind them. Yeah, but it's a giant banana. It's street legal.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean. Okay, I'll get the Wiener Mobile, the banana, the boot mobile.

[Christy Lee]

I wasn't familiar with the Bootmobile. This is pretty cool.

[Josh Arnold]

That is cool.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you, Sean.

[Tom Griswold]

They're all. They're all wonderful. Yeah. We have a couple more letters I suppose we could get to, but we also have to get to today in history and many more things. Have we finished our science segment today?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we have finished our science segment.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, let's. Let's go ahead. What else have you got over there?

[Christy Lee]

Iceland has long been one of the rare places on earth without mosquitoes. But mosquitoes have just been found for the very first time, I'm sure.

[Josh Arnold]

Climatologists.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's. Actually, I think it's. Aren't they saying it's from a boat?

[Josh Arnold]

The clouds are dying.

[Christy Lee]

Matthias's Alfonso, an entomologist, said three mosquitoes, two females and one male, were spotted around 20 miles north of Reynkovic.

[Josh Arnold]

They're just vacation, three of them.

[Christy Lee]

They want to see the northern region.

[Tom Griswold]

Some guys there, you see? He slaps it. No, no, there's only two left now.

[Christy Lee]

How do they know they didn't see the same one twice? He said their presence could indicate a recent introduction to the country, possibly via ships or containers. But more monitoring in the spring would be necessary to determine if they've spread further.

[Tom Griswold]

So they didn't get fooled by that Greenland, Iceland thing?

[Christy Lee]

Apparently.

[Josh Arnold]

Apparently not.

[Chick McGee]

Well, they. They got fooled a little. They were all wearing little parkas, so they. Them easier to spot them.

[Tom Griswold]

When I was. I remember being in school and hearing the Greenland ice, I think, and I thought they were putting me on.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, then when you heard that it.

[Christy Lee]

Was actually, I'm with you.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought they were going to. Tom is gullible enough to believe this. Everybody pretend this is the way it really happened.

[Chick McGee]

Was it a Viking thing?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Wasn't it? I believe, to keep them from being attacked. Yeah, they switched.

[Christy Lee]

Makes sense.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, you're not going to be able to pull that up on the. On the computer to see if they're.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, like. Here's what I like. What's his name? Like Epstein Island. I would have named it Snake Island. That way. That way. That'll keep the cops away and everybody else. Don't go there. At Snake Island. Oh, gee, that's scary.

[Christy Lee]

A farm in the uk, as she said really quickly, recently treated its cows to a jazz concert.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, how nice.

[Christy Lee]

According to the BBC, the Smith Hills Open Farm hired local band the Dixie Beats to play for their dairy cows.

[Pat Godwin]

They thought they were being booed, though. Did you hear the players?

[Christy Lee]

I did not know because it was.

[Pat Godwin]

Moo and they thought it was boo.

[Tom Griswold]

Then what happened? I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

John Percival said they've been a captive audience because they don't get away from us, but they seem to like it. He added, one or two of them even had a taste of my trumpet, so they'll need a good cleaning when I'll get home.

[Chick McGee]

Apparently, it's all about the cows. You don't milk when it comes to jazz.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There's a live album.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. For you Miles Davis fans, they covered a kind of moo.

[Christy Lee]

I thought you were gonna say they're in the moo.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's a culture. It's a Cold Train thing. Live at Herdland. Any jazz fans out there? Coltrane, you see? Oh, no. John Caltrain, they called it.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, Cow Train.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course. As my musician friends would say. Well, look, a gig is a gig. Even though you're playing for the Cows.

[Josh Arnold]

Why were they doing it?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

The.

[Tom Griswold]

The Cows like moooo. Sic anybody. Pat, come on. I. I can't help you. Ah. What would you have played for them? Well, not Jeff. Rhythm and Bulls.

[Josh Arnold]

I think I would have. Maybe a little Glenn Miller. Maybe some in the Mood.

[Christy Lee]

I just said that.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you did? When did you say it?

[Christy Lee]

Never mind.

[Josh Arnold]

I think you thought it.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, she said it.

[Christy Lee]

No, I said it.

[Tom Griswold]

The beauty of playing for cows, it's the. The only time the audience appreciates a bass solo. No.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, a Bunny Born without Ears received a crocheted pair to help him blend in with his siblings.

[Tom Griswold]

Do we have the picture of this thing? This is hilarious.

[Christy Lee]

The little baby rabbit named Van Guff or Van Gogh, was born at Smith Hills Open Farm in Bolton, England, where they had the damn band. Apparently, these people are in the news a lot. He was the only one of his litter without ears, so farmers wanted to make him replacements. Caitlin, a spokesperson for Smith Hills Open Farm told the news service. We crocheted him some ears for fun so that he could experience what it was like having ears, too. He only wears them for a short time when the farmers are there to supervise.

[Tom Griswold]

If we have a photo, look at the little guy. He looks like a guinea pig until they put the ears on him.

[Josh Arnold]

Him.

[Tom Griswold]

But I'm envisioning a situation in which the. All the buddies are out in the yard, and he looks around going, hey, guys. Where y'?

[Al Jackson]

All.

[Tom Griswold]

Where are y' all going? Because they hear a coyote coming. He's going, hey, what are you guys afraid of?

[Josh Arnold]

Or he does that thing where he's like, man, I sure hate that stupid coyote. Always. He's right behind me. Look at how cute that thing is.

[Tom Griswold]

Pretty cute.

[Josh Arnold]

Especially without the ears.

[Chick McGee]

I think without.

[Pat Godwin]

It's better.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, little guy.

[Josh Arnold]

I love him.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

They'll just keep him as a pet, right? Even though he's deaf.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you would hope so.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Well. And is he even.

[Christy Lee]

And is he deaf?

[Josh Arnold]

Right, Right.

[Christy Lee]

Question.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, no, I'd say it's just the ear flaps that are. What do you. The ear flaps that are missing.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. He's so cute.

[Josh Arnold]

Him's a sweethead.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Does he. You think he's being ostracized by the other rabbits?

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

Look who's wearing a hat. It's not Easter, you idiot.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, oh, boy. Well, it worked for Steve Martin, didn't it? Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, it looks just like that.

[Christy Lee]

A surprise visitor stopped by a downtown Bozeman watering hole this week. A black bear wandered through the outdoor seating area of Bozeman Spirits Distillery.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, how are you?

[Christy Lee]

Security footage shows the animal strolling past the patio tables before trotting across Main street and then disappearing into a nearby lot. The distillery posted the video online, joking that the bear was just looking for some huckleberry vodka to have back at his den for the winter. Wildlife officials say it's another reminder, though, that even in the heart of town, Montana is still bear country.

[Josh Arnold]

Ah.

[Tom Griswold]

I wrote a song.

[Josh Arnold]

You did?

[Tom Griswold]

B with an E and an A and an R. Bear run.

[Josh Arnold]

Bear run.

[Tom Griswold]

Grizzly. I gotta work on that.

[Josh Arnold]

He's a lion and tiger.

[Christy Lee]

Bears. Oh, my.

[Tom Griswold]

We can work on that. Pat, you know the old bear joke? The bear walks into a bar, bear walks in a barn, you go, let me get a. And the bartender says, why the big paws?

[Chick McGee]

I've never heard that one before. I love it either.

[Tom Griswold]

See the hesitation there? Why? Let get me a. Never mind.

[Josh Arnold]

Long pause.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, see? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Pause. Oh, you would go long pause. That joke I heard was long.

[Tom Griswold]

But he doesn't have long. But he has big paws. Why the big paws?

[Christy Lee]

He has long paws.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm going big.

[Tom Griswold]

They're huge.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm going big.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? Okay. If we're gonna be that way. I have a criticism of your song, Pat.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, many do.

[Tom Griswold]

So just jump on board, Dear, dear. I have a criticism. Dear Bob and Tom show. I heard Mr. Godwin's song about being well hung. That was a great song, by the way. A parody of the Judy Garland Bye Bye Birdie song. Bye Bye Birdie song put on a happy face. Apparently, there's the. Is the phrase in there hung like a hamster?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, out of curiosity, I googled hamster genitalia. By the way, I don't know who this guy is, but, sir, when the FBI work. When the FBI comes clear, your history. Comes your house. And then they. They look. You've been looking up hamsters, and I tell you, that's got to be a crime in some state. He go, I came across this. Male hamsters have disproportionately large testicles.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Those photos are out there, aren't they?

[Tom Griswold]

They are, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Just a big old bag on the back of a hamster.

[Chick McGee]

Big old bag.

[Christy Lee]

People are looking at hamster balls. Is that.

[Josh Arnold]

It was kind of.

[Chick McGee]

You can't miss them. You aren't trying to look. Exactly.

[Josh Arnold]

It was kind of a meme to type thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Apparently there's a thing like, you know, some fireman runs into a burning house to rescue a kid and go, well, that guy's got hamster balls. That's. Is that taken off yet?

[Josh Arnold]

But the song is about peni, not balls.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah. And you also have to use some poetic license to get hamster to rhyme with damn, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And that was so good. Can we have you play that again in a couple minutes? I love it.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it's good working with you, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

No, when we come back, well, we're gonna have. I'm just gonna throw out random words, and we'll allow Josh to opine two minutes for each. For each one.

[Josh Arnold]

I love that.

[Christy Lee]

Josh would be great.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, let's try it real quick. All right, first word. Alarm clock.

[Josh Arnold]

Go. Boy, don't you hate alarm clocks? Wake you up in the morning. Sometimes they go off on a TV show and it makes you sick to your stomach. That was a good 20 seconds.

[Tom Griswold]

Why would an alarm clock take sick? I have no idea. What have you got coming up? Chris Steele.

[Christy Lee]

Coming up, we have the court and a case about chimps whether they have human rights or not. We have a lady who went to a lot of trouble to kill a cockroach that caused a big problem. You've heard it before.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you read that whole story?

[Christy Lee]

No, I haven't.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably should have taken the part out about someone dying.

[Josh Arnold]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Christy Lee]

Well, I wouldn't have read that. Actually. I'm smart enough.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably a really bad idea.

[Josh Arnold]

Editorial and have you ever gone to.

[Christy Lee]

A restaurant and they have a secret recipe? You've always wondered what it. Well, there's a KFC who's in big trouble for selling or finding out about a secret recipe of a restaurant store.

[Tom Griswold]

I hope it's good right now. Speaking of great things, we have Mr. Godwin out on the road Saturday only. A one nighter. Mason city limits. Mason City, Illinois. While I'm at it, Willie G And the great Greg Hahn with some good comedy to take your mind off your troubles. That's happening this evening. And then what is it? I'm going to Saturday and Sunday Blue Ash Ohio at go bananas. Right now, I want to say about lean, going lean. What I'm talking about is something from Brick House Nutrition. Some doctors got together and they were working on a great way to lose weight because this is an interesting stat. The average American hit 60 and they've lost and regained several hundred pounds over the course of their lifetime time. We all do it. You put on five, you lose eight, then you put on 12, et cetera, et cetera. It's called weight cycling and you really need it to stop. It's a lot more healthy to just take the weight off slowly and carefully. That's where lean comes in. Developed by physicians at Brickhouse Nutrition. And the idea is to lose the weight. And by the way, this is not a injectable. It's not a GLP1 injectable. This is a. This is an oral supplement. Find out all about it by going to the website takelean.com. lean is designed to help maintain healthy blood sugar. Lean is designed to control your appetite and your food cravings. And lean is designed to help burn fat by converting it into energy and burning fat, of course, helps take the weight off.

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

[Josh Arnold]

Hi there. It's the Bob and Tom show. Live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, Chris D. Lees at the Silac Insurance Company news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Pat.

[Josh Arnold]

You would play, you would be a good. I, I, boy, I watched Rocky Horror and so I've, I've, I've been thinking about the Bob and Tom show version of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Who would play who? And I think I would have you play Dr. Scott. He's the guy in the wheelchair who sort of tries to out the, the evil plans of Frank and Furter.

[Chick McGee]

Great part.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, I think you're great. That'd be good. There's Jeff, Oscar at the Prize Picks sports desk.

[Tom Griswold]

The rest of us just, we're just extras. No, no.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Christy, would you rather be Magenta or Colombia? The magenta is a domestic. Yeah, Colombia is.

[Christy Lee]

Who's the one that had the meatloaf thing?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I liked her outfit better.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. Yeah, that's cool. Oscar, I think you're going to be Eddie, who was played by Meatloaf. Can you sing? Hot patootie? Bless my soul.

[Pat Godwin]

I really love that rock and roll.

[Chick McGee]

Yep.

[Christy Lee]

I'm really a Janet.

[Chick McGee]

Who am I?

[Josh Arnold]

Who am I? Who would Ace Cosby be? I mean, you would make an all right Frank N. Furter. You're just a sweet transvestite Jumbo size. Tom would be Brett. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, definitely.

[Josh Arnold]

And I, Josh Arnold at the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair, would love to play Riff Raff. I don't know that I'm right for it, but I would love to be.

[Tom Griswold]

And you can do the voice.

[Josh Arnold]

It's astounding. Time is fleeting. Madness takes its toll. Have you ever seen it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, when it came out. I saw it when it came out and there was no one in the theater.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right.

[Tom Griswold]

It was a double feature of that. And the Fillmore movie.

[Josh Arnold]

The Fillmore movie? Like.

[Tom Griswold]

Like the last. They filmed the last concert.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay. Wow.

[Christy Lee]

It's showing all over the country this coming Saturday at midnight. Various theaters around. Check your. Check local.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, with all the audience, participants.

[Chick McGee]

Did you used to do that?

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you've never done the audience participation?

[Josh Arnold]

I never actually have. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

So I'm due back in the day. Did you ever host one of those midnight shows?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I never did that. But I'll tell you what did happen when it was a stage play in London in the early days.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, no, this is true.

[Tom Griswold]

I was. I was over there. My sister kind of hung out with an odd crowd.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

And unbeknownst to me, I went to a cast party.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my gosh.

[Tom Griswold]

It was a rather bizarre group.

[Josh Arnold]

Must have been. Yeah, I saw it live in London and I'm trying to remember who played Frank N. Furter. If it was David Hasselhoff or somebody else. I'm gonna look it up. Up.

[Christy Lee]

David Hassel.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he played Frank N. Furter for a while. I just don't remember if I saw him.

[Christy Lee]

I would giggle. You didn't giggle.

[Josh Arnold]

We had a party watching it. Yeah. Everybody loved it.

[Christy Lee]

I would so giggle.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's time now, speaking of players, for the. The Bob and Tom players to return.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, it is.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you been. Have you been past a script?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I have. I didn't even realize.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This is what they call a cold reef.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So no one has a copy. Have seen a copy of this prior to right now. Now it's a new product apparently, and we're bringing Christopher in from the next room. Hey, Christopher. Morning. And you, I believe, are playing the announcer, Is that correct?

[Christopher]

That's true. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Do we have a nice. Do we have a nice level on our announcer?

[Christopher]

Sound familiar?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep. You just gotta really ride that mic. Mic, Christopher.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Let me teach you about radio. Yeah, please.

[Christopher]

I haven't been in it in much.

[Josh Arnold]

Five decades.

[Tom Griswold]

Five decades in. He sits down, the first thing he says is a curse word, you stupid F word. Oh, sorry. The mics are on. Apparently I start. Is that correct?

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know who looks like it. Yeah, you.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. Hi. I'm Clarence. Twice.

[Chick McGee]

Clarence. What?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm reading this. Hi, I'm Clarence Twaddle. With fall raining down on us, there's nothing I hate more than cleaning the leaves out of my gutters. It's gross, it's smelly, and it's dangerous. You're up two stories, slinging muck, balancing on a waddly ladder.

[Christy Lee]

Clarence, you better be careful up there. You better not die. I swear, if you fall and break your neck, I'll kill you myself.

[Christopher]

Sound familiar? Well, Mrs. Twaddle doesn't have to worry anymore because Clarence will be safe and sound, thanks to the newest invention from Frigama All Industries. Introducing gutter grenades. Frigamal Industries, in collaboration with the US Armed Forces, is pleased to bring you a revolution in gutter cleaning technology. With gutter grenades, there's no more fiddling with gloves, bags, stinky wet leaves and flimsy ladders. You just pull the pin and toss it in. Gutter grenades blow away the competition.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll tell you what, cleaning my gutters now is a cinch. I just pull the pin and toss it in.

[Josh Arnold]

Fire in the hole.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, hey, I'd rather deal with a little shrapnel than all those stupid leaves.

[Pat Godwin]

Wow, Clarence, you're done already? How long did it take you?

[Chick McGee]

Whoa.

[Pat Godwin]

What, Two minutes?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, Five minutes.

[Pat Godwin]

You're only holding up two fingers.

[Tom Griswold]

I just blew off the other three.

[Christopher]

And. Hey, Josh, Arnold, there's going to be no more tadpoles swimming around your gutters now. Your gutters will be so clean, you can eat pizza right out of them. We guarantee it.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Warning.

[Christopher]

Gutter grenades may result in hearing loss, flashbacks, ptsd, lock jaw tmj, loss of domicile or loss of loss life.

[Pat Godwin]

Man, your gutters look amazing, Clarence.

[Christy Lee]

Thanks.

[Tom Griswold]

It was super easy. All thanks to gutter grenades. I just pulled the pin and tossed it in. And.

[Pat Godwin]

Now those extra charts.

[Tom Griswold]

And now those pesky leaves are someone else's problem.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they're my problem. You were supposed to yell, fire in the hole. Damn it. I look like an oak tree just took a crap all over me.

[Christopher]

Call 1-800-Blown Away to get your gross of gutter grenades today. And coming to Backyards next summer, keep an eye out for our new Das Boot Pool Cleaning Torpedoes from the makers of the Run Silent Run Deep Septic and Toilet Depth Charge and the Crimson Tide Tampon Harpoon. Plus, be sure to ask about our new Bazooka Wasp and Hornet Killer. And don't forget our number one seller, the Napalm Fire Pit Starter thanks to.

[Christy Lee]

Gutter grenades, I don't have to pester Clarence to clean the gutters anymore. It's like he's back in Korea. He can't wait to pull the pin and toss it in.

[Tom Griswold]

What was once my most hated chore is now my favorite. Thanks. Gutter grenades.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Christopher.

[Christopher]

You're welcome.

[Tom Griswold]

Everyone's seeing it for the very first time.

[Al Jackson]

Not.

[Tom Griswold]

Not bad.

[Christy Lee]

And actually supposed to be real old.

[Tom Griswold]

That actually leads to a story in the news in which someone used the equivalent of a gutter grenade to get rid of some insects.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Authorities in South Korea say a woman set her apartment building on fire while trying to kill a cockroach. The resident tried to kill the best with a lighter and a flammable spray, a technique she had used in the past. But items in her home caught fire. The blaze spread, causing the. Oh. Eight other residents suffered from smoke inhalation. We won't talk about the one person who died. Police in Osan said the woman could be charged with accidentally starting a fire and causing a death by negligence.

[Josh Arnold]

One person died.

[Chick McGee]

It was in China. It's okay.

[Josh Arnold]

It was in Korea.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Korea. I wouldn't pay.

[Tom Griswold]

And the worst part is the cockroach made it.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Cockroach makes it out. So in my understanding, this is the deal where you take. Take a lighter and, like, Pam spray and you hold it in front of it, it turns into a flamethrower.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You do that.

[Tom Griswold]

I know it's a blast, but I'm not gonna do it, you know, in a place where the.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Maybe don't do it. If the cockroach is on the curtain.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. You gotta be. You know, if the cockroach is right there on your cooktop, it's perfectly acceptable. But that's a shame. Sorry about the lady dying at the end. I probably should have taken that out.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I kind of stumbled over it. That was my fault.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the problem. Problem with contemporary technology, though, you see, because back in the day, you'd have a magazine over there. You could get the magazine and whack the bug. Now. Yeah. You're not gonna hit it with your. Your iPad. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

She really did go. That's too far.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I hate cockroaches, but I'm not.

[Christy Lee]

I've never really had that pleasure.

[Tom Griswold]

You've never seen cockroach?

[Christy Lee]

I've seen them, but not in my home. I've been, well, fortunate enough, even in my dire circumstances.

[Al Jackson]

Days.

[Josh Arnold]

Luckily, cockroaches are very solitary creatures. So if you see One. That's it.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you're right.

[Josh Arnold]

On it.

[Christy Lee]

They're kind of like mice.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You have nothing to worry about.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good. Well, Christy Lee is at the SILAC Insurance news desk. What else is going on over there in California?

[Christy Lee]

Authorities say a truck full of blueberries lost its load. Blutes.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't you guys like when you get the labels for your blueberries? It has the French on there.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, Blutes.

[Josh Arnold]

Blutes.

[Christy Lee]

I call them bloobs.

[Josh Arnold]

I love saying blooms.

[Christy Lee]

I talk to my dogs, I go, you want some bloobs?

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

I believe bloobs is a term for the memories of smurfs.

[Josh Arnold]

What? Bloobs.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, nice blobs there, Mama Smurf.

[Christy Lee]

It led to the closure of a Fresno area interstate. California Highway Patrol warned drivers after the spill, which occurred Monday evening in the southbound lanes of Highway 99 near the Highway 180 interchange. CHB shared photos of berries on the road, as well as the sticky purple mess caused by the blueberries being run over by vehicles. The road was closed for cleanup efforts, but birds in the air. Very happy.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, you got a song for us?

[Pat Godwin]

Had a spill down Blueberry Hill by the landfill.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, the highways blue.

[Josh Arnold]

It's messy this.

[Pat Godwin]

Very icky that hill. And it will be until the cleaning crew comes through.

[Josh Arnold]

Those blueberries really stain.

[Pat Godwin]

Lose the load and you'll see. It looks like aliens crashed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Blue as blue could be.

[Josh Arnold]

In 20 years, there'll be blue on that hill.

[Pat Godwin]

And it will be until a beat truck has a spill. Beats beat.

[Christy Lee]

Blue.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what?

[Chick McGee]

They do.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much.

[Christy Lee]

That is lovely.

[Tom Griswold]

Talk about a traffic jam. Favorite type of jam. Go, go. Strawberry, Strawberry, Strawberry.

Hey, it's the Bob and Tom Show. Where the hell are we? Oh, the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Chris D. Lee at the Silac Insurance Company news desk. Hello, there's Pat Godwin. Hey, I just had a piece of cheesecake, so my brain is too happy to speak.

[Chick McGee]

There's.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Jeff Oscar at the prize peak. Yeah, that's where I'm at. At the prize pick sports desk.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

It's Cosby across the way. How was it? Just awesome. Just awesome.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a pumpkin cake, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Pumpkin cheesecake with fig Newman crust. Oh, yeah, I don't. It's all I want to do is just eat that until I pass away.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what the crust is. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

At the ice.

[Tom Griswold]

Those. Those crappy fig. Big Newmans that were all stale that.

[Josh Arnold]

You brought in for us. So you do admit they were crappy and stale.

[Tom Griswold]

I know. They all were. This. The first one I opened was crap.

[Josh Arnold]

Wisely.

[Tom Griswold]

I bought. I bought a six pack of them.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And they arrived stale. And then I. I bought them on Amazon. I got a letter from them because I wrote a bad review because I was upset.

[Christy Lee]

You got a letter back from Amazon?

[Tom Griswold]

But I didn't get my money money back.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you shouldn't. Jess is using them and we are eating well.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I didn't realize that you could take stale fig Newmans and make a nice crust out of them.

[Josh Arnold]

You gotta have a bite of that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I got a letter here. Your customer review was live on Amazon. Oh, we had millions of shoppers appreciate the time you took to share your opinion. Here's my review.

[Christy Lee]

Generated bs.

[Tom Griswold]

Here's my review. Not fresh, not edible. Hard as rock Arrived very stale. Inedible.

[Josh Arnold]

Edible gave way to my co workers.

[Tom Griswold]

Then Amazon wrote me, keep it up. Your opinion matters.

[Pat Godwin]

Well, very personal.

[Tom Griswold]

I've only done it once before. I wrote. I wrote a. I wrote a review about some sunglasses that were completely. When do you have time to do this? I was so pissed. No, no, no wonder.

[Chick McGee]

You're always so busy.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he's busy with nothing. He's always suggested that and I think it is true.

[Tom Griswold]

No, but the one with the. The sunglasses, I was furious.

[Christy Lee]

And what was wrong with the sunglasses?

[Tom Griswold]

They were crap.

[Josh Arnold]

They were.

[Tom Griswold]

They were.

[Christy Lee]

They were clear.

[Tom Griswold]

They were rubbery. They weren't what they were supposed to be. And in any of it's too boring to explain. Let's do today in history us.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

You and your. You and. You're just stuffing down a delightful piece of pumpkin. Pumpkin.

[Josh Arnold]

You're just jealous because you didn't have any.

[Tom Griswold]

I am.

[Josh Arnold]

As a matter of fact, I'm eating the rest and you can't have it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Thank you. Do we have the music for Today in History?

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, I'm not for Today in History. Tom doesn't get any cheesecake.

[Tom Griswold]

Happy birthday, 1915. Bob Kane. You know who that is? Chris?

[Christy Lee]

Bob Kane? No.

[Tom Griswold]

Creator of Batman. Although there's a backstory there. Apparently there's some.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. There's a gentleman whose last name is Finger. I don't remember his first name exactly. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

He also, like, created it and wasn't getting the credit for years.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now is a friend of the show. Happy birthday, 1939. The great F. Murray Abraham.

[Josh Arnold]

Good actor.

[Christy Lee]

Very good actor.

[Tom Griswold]

Currently in. What's that thing with the.

[Christy Lee]

Give me something.

[Tom Griswold]

They're at a resort and.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, White Lotus.

[Tom Griswold]

White Lotus, Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

He's very good in it.

[Tom Griswold]

He's great in everything.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he is.

[Tom Griswold]

Doesn't his name sound like an insult? A F. Murray Abraham.

[Josh Arnold]

What did Murray Abraham ever do to you?

[Tom Griswold]

He's the guy. He's.

[Christy Lee]

He.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't he get an Academy Award for Salieri?

[Pat Godwin]

Amadeus.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Amadeus. A terrific guy. He can. He can play almost any ethnicity.

[Josh Arnold]

He used to be able to. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know something? I apologize. We interviewed him. He was so nice. Just a great guy. Happy birthday. Kevin Klein, 1947.

[Josh Arnold]

A terrific actor. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

His own line of underwear.

[Christy Lee]

I think that's his brother Calvin.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay. I don't know who this is. Tila Tequila.

[Christy Lee]

You don't know Tila?

[Josh Arnold]

Was she big in the early 2000s?

[Christy Lee]

She was with Flavor Flav. Man.

[Josh Arnold]

I never really understood who she was either. I just want to hear her name.

[Pat Godwin]

An early influencer, really.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it kind of seemed like that.

[Christy Lee]

Dead yet mtv?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I don't think she's dead because.

[Tom Griswold]

You never know with these.

[Chick McGee]

No, that's just her career.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, let's see. I don't care about him. Oh, this is complicated. This guy. Is it pronounced Pewdiepie?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Got more than 100 million followers.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

What does he do exactly?

[Chick McGee]

He's a guy on YouTube that you would hate. He just comments on stuff and. Ah.

[Josh Arnold]

Is he funny?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

But I mean, probably if you were 19, you would think he was great.

[Josh Arnold]

Gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

How about events in 1901? This happened. That's right. I. You know, I have a fake ID. I took off the 1899 and changed it to 1901.

[Josh Arnold]

They're 124.

[Tom Griswold]

So. So I could be The Dick Clark of. Okay, Christy, what did this person do? Annie Edson Taylor in 1901.

[Christy Lee]

Annie Edson Taylor. She started making guitars.

[Tom Griswold]

A very good guess. No, she at the time claimed to be in her 40s. She was actually 63 years of age. She climbed into a barrel and went over Niagara Falls.

[Josh Arnold]

Did she survive it?

[Tom Griswold]

And she survived.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

She was known. This is true. I know this. It's not. She was called the Queen of the Mist. Oh, remember the.

[Josh Arnold]

Now there's the maiden of the.

[Tom Griswold]

The boat. Yeah, yeah. But she lived. Apparently someone had gone over the falls and lived prior to that. But not in a barrel.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Gotta be a rough descent, a rougher landing. Many have tried and not all. All have lived. And I believe it's illegal. I think you have to get a permit or something.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm sure.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, have you ever seen Niagara Falls?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, a couple times.

[Tom Griswold]

Terrifying.

[Josh Arnold]

It's awesome.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't get even close to the.

[Pat Godwin]

I can't either.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

I love it too.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Blows all over you.

[Tom Griswold]

And there's that little island there.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Like literally thinking, hey, I could come out to that island.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yes. Bukake island, where the mist just blows all over you.

[Pat Godwin]

Many, many this.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's see. Harry Houdini's final performance was in what city? Anybody?

[Pat Godwin]

Toronto.

[Christy Lee]

Philadelphia.

[Tom Griswold]

Detroit, 1925. And he famously died of a ruptured appendix after some idiot punched him in the stomach. Yeah, yeah, I hear. Because, let's see, this was. Yeah, this is the hundredth anniversary. I've heard that as spectacular show at the halftime of the super bowl is going to feature the return of Harry Houdini.

[Josh Arnold]

Really alive, I'm sure would be something.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember, he promised if it's possible to come back.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he did.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Pat Godwin]

You know his final words were what? Punching the stomach on three.

[Chick McGee]

1.

[Tom Griswold]

It's good PR for the city of Detroit, though, for someone to die there. Not from a stabbing or a gunshot warrant.

[Chick McGee]

There.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's see. Oh, Mick Jagger and Marianne Faithful were arrested on this date in 1968 for marijuana. Their bail. Their bail was 50 pounds, not a 50 pound bale of marijuana.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you're right.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. But in England they call. They call money pounds, Pat. I know these days.

[Pat Godwin]

I've been there with you.

[Tom Griswold]

These days the only bust that'll happen to Mick Jagger is just hip hop.

[Pat Godwin]

Because he's old.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm older than you, Mick. I was born in 1899.

[Josh Arnold]

Is he in his 80s?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I think he is. 80 or 81 isn't he amazing.

[Tom Griswold]

Lastly, this is important because in 1992, the Toronto Blue Jays won, what, the world series, right?

[Christy Lee]

30 years ago.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right. And interestingly enough, on that team, no Canadians.

[Al Jackson]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Huh? Are you making that up?

[Tom Griswold]

No, they had a number of, obviously a number of Americans and. But of course, there was a Jamaican, a couple of Dominicans. Of course, I believe. Huh. There were some Puerto Ricans, but they're Americans. Don't get me started on that. I don't want to get into a bad bunny fight.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't think anybody was saying anything. He started an argument with himself, resolved it.

[Chick McGee]

He won and lost. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And made a potentially hostile reference. I don't remember. And that's pretty much all the exciting stuff that happened on that data. And you're very welcome.

[Christy Lee]

Mick Jagger's 82, by the way. Yeah, he's in great shape.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, there was one cool thing that happened on this. I just remembered it. I don't have, I don't have it on my list. John Lennon released that, the great album Starting Over.

[Chick McGee]

It'll be.

[Tom Griswold]

You just lost Double Fantasy. Yeah. A great. Yeah. The song some of our friends play on that. Yeah, it's great. Okay, well, thank you very much. Coming up, what do we have coming up?

[Christy Lee]

We have Al Jackson.

[Chick McGee]

We have Al Jackson.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And.

[Chick McGee]

And after Al. Fail Dimension News.

[Tom Griswold]

I love Fail Dimension Jackson on a Friday.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I know they typically run late, but gee.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it is black.

[Christy Lee]

It's like Johnny Carson. He got bumped today.

[Tom Griswold]

Everything I said less offensive. Oh, we got, then we got the story about what young folks like to see on the screen. And it's, I think that was really, you hear, very surprising results.

[Christy Lee]

I agree.

[Tom Griswold]

Not, not a lot of sex.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Not a lot of sexy.

[Josh Arnold]

So no sex.

Thinker at the Prize Prep sports desk.

[Tom Griswold]

A thinker.

[Christy Lee]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

It's Al Jackson joining us.

[Al Jackson]

And I look like a depressed author in here.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it looks like you're. It looks like if the background was slightly different. It looks like you're trapped in a submarine begging us to get you oxygen. Yeah.

[Al Jackson]

You're not feeling the 7:00am turtleneck.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's nice. That looks. That looks very, very nice. Now you're playing tonight and tomorrow. What's happening here?

[Al Jackson]

I am. I'm at the 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festival out here in beautiful Minneapolis, having a good time. And then, you know, we continue with the travels. But this is great. Anybody in the Minneapolis area come out to the Pantages theater on Saturday and catch me and my boy Hannibal. We got a show.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, cool.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, Pantages, right?

[Al Jackson]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You say Pantages.

[Al Jackson]

Are Pantages in the song.

[Tom Griswold]

What is it? Ricky Lee Jones, Chucky's in Love. Chucky's in Love. Remember, she mentions the Pantages, right? Anybody?

[Josh Arnold]

Class? No, I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

That's all I know.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's Pantages. I don't know. Good question. Al, you're there.

[Al Jackson]

I do want to say this before we go further. I just want to let Josh know that I heard his comment about us running late. It was hurtful and hilarious, and I appreciate it.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you're. You. You and your people are welcome. Go ahead, cancel me. I'll just fish more.

[Pat Godwin]

That should be a bumper sticker.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that would be ye.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I want to get clear here. You're with the Hannibal Burris, Is that right? And is it just tomorrow? I didn't understand.

[Al Jackson]

I'm with Hannibal Burris Saturday night at 7pm and I have my own show tonight at 7:30.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, so everything all.

[Al Jackson]

You know, my. My ticket and everything is on my. In my bio, on my Instagram. So. Yeah, come through.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now, Al, I. Before we get to our. The point of our segment, which is learning me some slang. I think it's working. Yeah. Thank you very much. Are you following this NBA thing at all with Chauncey Billups? This is pretty funny. What I'm talking about is the. The FBI press conference yesterday. Did you see that? They accused. That they accused these people of having an X ray table where they could see the cards. They'd bring some sucker in and everybody at the table knew they were scamming. They got, it's, I mean it's amazing.

[Al Jackson]

I, I, I always assume anytime I'm gambling that I'm being ripped off. I don't know. Like when you go to the carnival and you're shooting jump shots. Have you ever looked at that hoop from the side? It looks like it's like the shape of a watermelon. Like it's not supposed, you're not supposed to win. Like I think when we were little kids, everybody's like, you know, life is about fair and a good game. Everybody is trying to get the advantage and we all know that. But yet casino still exists. Now I don't know what was going on with the. I heard something about some contact lenses and I don't know if somebody went to that extent to rip me off, I feel I'd be like, I made it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I mean they, the accusation is that certain people said hey man, you want to play cards with some NBA greats? And supposedly they're, the accusation is they were in on it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean they had a shuffling machine that was rigged. Rigged. They had. Yeah, some glasses thing.

[Christy Lee]

And there was somebody that was in an off site location that was able to feed inflation and information to other players.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Al Jackson]

And there's also the bad guys from Die Hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Al Jackson]

Like it's just insane.

[Tom Griswold]

They also say that they use the words Cosa Nostra.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Mafia of involving. It didn't seem to be point shaving but it was like guys would fake being being fake being sick or fake being her amazing story. But what I'm wondering is do you think they did the press release the day after the NBA season started? Is the timing suspect?

[Al Jackson]

Absolutely. You know it's funny is like I think when you are not in the media you just think, oh this thing just broke. Look, you are trying to especially any administration. But this administration wants good press like anybody else. And the idea of going after the Mafia, you think back to like Giuliani in the 80s. It's just a, it's a good look. And it makes your justice department look like they're doing the right thing. And so like to drop this the day of the NBA, you know, major star Chauncey Bills for like, I don't know what his like implication is and like where are the mafia people? I just see like a third string point guard and Chauncey Billups just standing there. So I don't know like who all Is involved.

[Tom Griswold]

It'll be interesting. See?

[Al Jackson]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm curious, but I mean, when you're making 30 million bucks a year, do you really have to cheat to make more? What do you. I, I don't understand that.

[Al Jackson]

That's. That is. That's what. It was shocking. When I heard he had a $26 million contract. I'm like, I wouldn't be doing anything right. I would not be jaywalking. I'd be like, I got one more year. We will be in the Bahamas surrounded by food and hot chicks. Like, what are you doing?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's time now to become. Al is a former teacher and is now helping me. He's teaching me the. The. The. The lingo, if you will. The. The. Yes.

[Al Jackson]

Tom, I'm writing a book. It's called My Last Student.

[Tom Griswold]

The. The. The vocabulary of the Street. What have you got for me, Al?

[Al Jackson]

Tom, we, we talked about one. And I really like that. You did well last week we talked about putting your foot in it, which is like, you know, you. You get some, some spices. You really flavored up your food. So this week I want to. I really am a fan of slang that I heard from like my aunties and grandmothers in the early 80s. And I wonder if any, Any. Any y' all will get this. Tom, what does it mean to say that somebody is fast?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow. That can have a lot. I know back in the day, you mean like for.

[Al Jackson]

Yeah, let's take it back to like 87.

[Tom Griswold]

I think that would be. If a woman was fast, it meant that she was of loose morals.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Round, healed.

[Chick McGee]

That.

[Tom Griswold]

That she's. She's fast.

[Al Jackson]

That's Tom. I was curious to see if it crossed over, like racial demographics because that I just, like, I just. You explained it well. But I could just hear my aunts and my friends moms going, you guys, guys run around here with those fast ass girls. You need to be like, I just heard that so many times. So many times. And then it just went away. Like, I don't know. It's like, not even insulting. It's just like such an interesting word calling a woman fast.

[Tom Griswold]

That reminds me, I, I have. I. I guess I can tell this story now. Everyone's deceased.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, geez.

[Tom Griswold]

My. My aunt. I had. I had an aunt who was like a second mom to me. And we were walking near the beach at nine Mile Point and on Lake Michigan.

[Christy Lee]

I was an eye roll for you for dick.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. And we. This is on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan and up There, it's all sand. It looks like you're in the Bahamas. And there, there was uh, there was a young lady, uh, there was a young lady who was in kind of back where the, the, the, the, the grass is, you know, the, the high beach cross dress. And she was, my aunt at the time was quite elderly and I was probably 22 or something. And she was being vigorously serviced by a fellow. And I mean it was absolutely, what is the flagrant delecto, whatever the term.

[Josh Arnold]

Was the guy, were they having sex.

[Tom Griswold]

Or was he face down abs? The guy? They were, he was on top of pumping away.

[Al Jackson]

Okay, all right, wait, what time was this, Tom? Was this in the morning?

[Tom Griswold]

At night it was probably three in the afternoon. Beautiful sunny day. I'm walking with my ex. It's a great beach to walk on. I'm walking with my energy. She looks over, I look over and I mean it is the most graphic. And she goes, well that's what I call intimacy. To this day on the show, I will, I will often say say intimate moments or just based as a little tribute to my aunt who gonna say.

[Christy Lee]

Never married, never had children, probably never.

[Tom Griswold]

And then instantly the, the, the, the, the punchline to that is a couple hours later that couple walked by on the beach.

[Al Jackson]

Did you, wait, did your aunt say anything?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, I, I found it rather interesting. And by the way, congratulations to the both them. Of, of them and that night did a very nice job.

[Al Jackson]

Did it turn you on at all? Be honest.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, of course. So we now do we have another old fashioned word like fast?

[Al Jackson]

I, I, I kind of like this one. It's kind of based on something we've talked about. It's not as old school but. Tom, what does it mean when somebody's got whole meal energy?

[Tom Griswold]

Whole meal energy? I don't know. That's a tough one. Anybody never heard of that? Sure. Does it mean that you've been well fed and you're ready to rock and go on and do whatever you want to do that day?

[Al Jackson]

No, but I'll give everybody a hint. Just think. Yeah, I don't know if this will give it away, but remember we talked about this word a long time ago. A snack. When somebody's cute, you'd be like, oh, that Josh, he's a snack. Like so like think about giving off whole mill energy.

[Christy Lee]

Then that means like they're like the best, like hot.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, package. They're the appetizer, they're the main entree.

[Tom Griswold]

And this is, this is from your, your elderly aunt.

[Al Jackson]

No, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Al Jackson]

It's from this generation.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I'm sorry. I thought we were still visiting and Florence back.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

She thought Ben Vereen gave off whole meal energy.

[Christy Lee]

She's the whole meal.

[Tom Griswold]

Did your elderly. The folks you were talking about earlier, did they ever, like, racial components to their advice to you? Like, I'm trying to think.

[Al Jackson]

You know, I keep it a hunted. I'm trying to think because there's nothing like, just like the unfiltered advice of people that were born in the 30s and 40s.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Al Jackson]

Because they didn't. They didn't mince words. I'm trying to think what would. What would my parents like? My parents didn't really go with the racial stuff. They were really. Just. Because my sister was. She was wild. So, like, I didn't have. I just really just constantly heard them yelling at her to just like, she. This. There was a thing where, like, parents that are. That raised my generation, they would just, like, prognosticate what was going to happen. Oh, you're out here with your boyfriend Tom. Let me tell you this. You're going to be pregnant in a year, and then after that, you're going to try and join the army, because what you can't. Could you have a baby? And now what? You're on the street and you're like, that was a leap.

[Tom Griswold]

How did we get here?

[Al Jackson]

Yeah. They would just, like, really go down these whole paths, and you'd be like, dad, I got it. It. So my kids won't. Like, they don't. They don't suffer fools like. You got to get your information out in like a minute or they're gone.

[Tom Griswold]

That's funny. That's great. Oh, Al, I just looked at the clock. We got to move. Move along here. Now, once again, where are you playing exactly tonight? What is the name of the place tonight?

[Al Jackson]

Tonight I am at a brewery that whose name I do not know.

[Tom Griswold]

Where can they find the.

[Al Jackson]

Yeah, just go on my Instagram. I'm in Minneapolis tonight night. And next week on the 14th, I will be at Yellow and Coal Yellow and Company in Muhammad, Illinois. So come out and see me there. And then I'll be in Greenwood, Indiana. I'm gonna come in and kick it with y' all in a couple weeks.

Not the. Not the vampire kind.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no. Those are out and about though, because as we know, it is vampire season.

[Christy Lee]

Can you use a T bone? Never mind.

[Chick McGee]

You.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, I don't know. As a steak, I guess so.

[Christy Lee]

Steak and then use the T bone part as a steak.

[Josh Arnold]

[Josh Arnold]

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you know who it might be? It might be fans of Dracula because you cannot take on a vampire with a stake made of anything but wood.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I have seen movies where they've died with something else.

[Tom Griswold]

According to the classic tradition in Eastern Europe, it calls for, quote, a wooden stake made from ash, hawthorne, oak or maple.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right. But some of those vampires have evolved.

[Pat Godwin]

How large does it have to be?

[Tom Griswold]

I haven't gotten that deep into.

[Pat Godwin]

There's stakes out there.

[Chick McGee]

This big.

[Josh Arnold]

Reward for loyal listeners.

[Tom Griswold]

It says they've experimented with other materials, silver, iron or even carbon fiber. But only wooden stakes count. And they are acknowledging the pun there as truly lethal for vampires.

[Christy Lee]

All right, we learned something today.

[Tom Griswold]

There we go.

[Josh Arnold]

So hard. There's different lore out there, but I'm gonna say go wooden.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay. But don't take the T. But just enjoy the T bone on your own. Thank you very much. Wow. Are we off track? When we get back, we're going to visit with Mr. Oskay one of my favorite features every week, news we failed to mention from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, hello. My gosh, you're surprised to be. Welcome to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance Company news desk.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat Godwin over there.

[Chick McGee]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Ace Cosby at the board. Hey, I'm Josh Arnold at the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. And Tom, I believe it's time for a very special moment.

[Tom Griswold]

Our own Jeff Oskay is here and.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, there he is.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, there you see it.

[Pat Godwin]

There you go.

[Chick McGee]

How's it going, everybody?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you're at the prize pick sports desk. How about that?

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's time now for a special feature. Do you want to do the intro?

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Josh Arnold]

Let me.

[Chick McGee]

Let's do this now. Oh, I can't get the mouse to go where. There we go.

[Tom Griswold]

Here's Jeff Osu with failed to mention.

[Chick McGee]

News because we give you a lot of the news each week. We don't give you all the news. So I'm here to give you the news that we failed to mention. Oh, by the way, this tie. I have a nice new mushroom tie.

[Josh Arnold]

Very nice.

[Chick McGee]

That's from Greg B. Thanks, Greg. Greg for the tie.

[Josh Arnold]

I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

And they call you Papa Shroom MAU MAU. Is that correct?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, they do now.

[Chick McGee]

From now on, they do. We learned the benefits of walking backwards while working out. What you failed to mention. The best benefit. Your neighbors no longer talk to you. That's a win. A man was caught faking blind this for 50 years. What you failed to mention. Apparently his new scene idog turned him in.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, this guy doesn't need me at all.

[Chick McGee]

I think he's faking. We learned yesterday about zip coding when it comes to deciding on who to date. Well, you failed to mention. If you ever want to ruin a date. Zip lining. Oh, boy, what a bore.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Christy Lee]

Have you never ziplined?

[Tom Griswold]

It's awesome.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I think it's exciting too.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't like zip lining?

[Christy Lee]

Ah, it's awful.

[Chick McGee]

Not a fan.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well, what are you a fan of?

[Josh Arnold]

You and I'll go zipline.

[Tom Griswold]

Not fan of the smoking up in a tree. Smoking the reefer.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's all I do. I just smoke the reefer on my dates.

[Christy Lee]

No, Ziplining is dangerous and scary.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You're flying through the trees.

[Chick McGee]

Not a fan.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Chick McGee]

A man was found guilty of assault and battery for a drive by cheeseburger attack. What you failed to mention. He's currently waiting for a pardon for Mayor McCheese.

[Josh Arnold]

Ah, you hope that phone call comes.

[Chick McGee]

You do. Oh, here's one of the. I'm going to let you guys pick the punchline, okay. Because they're both equally bad. We learned a man has a name that is. Is 20 minutes long. 20 minutes long. Pat. What you failed to mention. I'd like to get to know you. I just don't have that kind of time. Or Ghost by Mike.

[Josh Arnold]

I like that. That's. I like that.

[Chick McGee]

All right, so act like you didn't hear the setup. We learned of a man whose name is 20 minutes long. What you failed to mention Ghost by Mike.

[Josh Arnold]

Just so silly.

[Tom Griswold]

Workshop. Very good.

[Josh Arnold]

The perfect way to do that would be if you could memorize that name somehow.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there's no way.

[Tom Griswold]

And then.

[Josh Arnold]

And just. It would be like the new Aristocrats. And then you just. You say the whole thing. The whole thing. And then finally goes by Mike.

[Tom Griswold]

Would it be worth it?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, but that's the humor is it's.

[Chick McGee]

We learned a bishop got in trouble after the church Learned he has 17 lovers. Yeah. Well, you failed to mention. If God was good enough to bless this brother in Christ with a bountiful bevy of beautiful babes, who are we to judge?

[Christy Lee]

Or.

[Chick McGee]

Let thee without side pieces cast the first stone?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that. That.

[Tom Griswold]

You think so?

[Josh Arnold]

The alliteration really distracted me in the first one.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, well, maybe I didn't do it right. Let's try it again.

[Tom Griswold]

I like the first one better.

[Chick McGee]

If God was good enough to bless this brother in Christ with a bountiful bevy of beautiful babes, who are we to judge?

[Josh Arnold]

You're out immediately. Yeah. Direct during that. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the writer showing.

[Chick McGee]

That's why I do. Okay, maybe you'll hate this one. There's a new movie coming out based on the Magic 8 ball from your childhood. What you failed to mention. All signs point to failure.

[Pat Godwin]

Very good.

[Tom Griswold]

That's perfect.

[Chick McGee]

And two more. We learned that early Europeans used to hunt elephants. What you failed to mention. And based on only King Charles's ears. Apparently they weren't just hunting them.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yes, very much.

[Chick McGee]

I'm going to end on a another choose your own adventure joke. Okay, only one in ten kids now venture outside to play, which sounds bad. Well, you failed to mention a. On a positive spin, 9 out of 10 kids now have no chance of being kidnapped while playing outside because they're inside.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What you failed to mention. Have you played video games?

[Josh Arnold]

They're awesome.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Or this one. Hey, on a positive note, way less chance of getting hit by my car.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm just going with the car one, because.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, only one in ten kids now venture outside to play, which sounds bad. What you failed to mention. Hey, on a positive, way less chance of me hitting one with my car.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think so.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, don't get me wrong, too. Zero comedy there.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, we all pick something. Yeah. 9 out of 10 want to go ziplining. And that other. That other punk just gonna stay inside and play video.

[Chick McGee]

And that was the news we failed to mention.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Jeffrey.

[Josh Arnold]

Very nice, Jeff.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, Patty G. Pat Godwin on the road this weekend. One show only. Saturday night. Night. Mason city limits. Mason City, Illinois. Now, typically, people drive pretty far to go to these shows.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, it's the middle of nowhere, but it's an oasis. It's a wonderful club. Very New York style, Low ceilings.

[Josh Arnold]

It's cool.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, very cool.

[Tom Griswold]

And you're gonna be doing the comedy and the music I understand putting them both together. Okay, I see. Do you want to play a song for us right now?

[Pat Godwin]

I'll do whatever you'd like. Hey, I am like a bad Broadway musical. I start talking and then I just break into song. What would you like to hear?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, speaking of Broadway musicals, perhaps that song based on the. On the greatest song from Bye Bye Birdie. Oh, I love that musical. Now this. This needs. This needs a small setup. This is based on another falsehood flying all over the Internet. It involves the. The. The dimensions of the male member, if you will. And some clown out there decided that. What is it again?

[Christy Lee]

You could judge by a guy's smile whether.

[Tom Griswold]

Judging by someone's smile, you can tell if they're well hung. So a big, happy smiling face that exudes confidence. And apparently a large member. Do we have the photograph of someone with a big smile on their face?

[Josh Arnold]

Nope. It's radio.

[Tom Griswold]

I just want to see it again. It makes me so happy.

[Pat Godwin]

It's gonna be here any second. Up on the screen for us to.

[Tom Griswold]

See where this is the part of the setup. There we go.

[Chick McGee]

Before.

[Josh Arnold]

He must have a huge win.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

Isn't that something? Look at you.

[Tom Griswold]

Crazed Patty G. What do you got?

[Pat Godwin]

Ah, your pants are overflowing. Put on a smiley face. Your bulge is always showing. Put on a big D face. But if you are home like a hamster, fake them out with a smile. Ladies will say damn, sir, I'll bet you're packing like that guy in the Three Mile. If you want to stop like Ken.

[Josh Arnold]

John, the Green Mile.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

I say the Three Mile.

[Tom Griswold]

Damn. I was using the radiation from Three Mile Island. Made it grow Huge breaking dick.

[Pat Godwin]

But if you are hung like a hamster, fake a mouth with a smile. You see, I backed up a little bit. Ladies will say, damn, sir, I'll bet you're packing like that guy in the green.

[Chick McGee]

My.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

If.

[Pat Godwin]

Christy is always staring, I'll show her my big fat wong. Let your lower lips. They'll think you have a big wang. So put on a well hung face.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We don't need any more letters. We understand hamsters are disproportionately large in the genitalia area. Now, we promised the chimp story. You have it?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I have it.

[Tom Griswold]

This is really interesting. So you're a big fan of the anthropoid apes?

[Christy Lee]

I'm a big fan of animals in general, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, what do you got?

[Christy Lee]

A court has ruled that chimpanzees do not have human rights and can remain at a Michigan Zoo.

[Josh Arnold]

Although Stacey Abrams is trying to get them the right to vote in Georgia.

[Christy Lee]

Legal battle began when the Non Human Rights Project filed a complaint. It stated that the chimpanzees at the de Young family zoo should be considered autonomous beings or persons whose confinement must be justified by the zoo. They ultimately wanted to see the chips released to a sanctuary.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I see.

[Christy Lee]

In its decision decision, the court said chimpanzees are animals which previous courts have said should be treated as property and no exception exists for intelligent animals.

[Josh Arnold]

Are they being mistreated at all?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know if they are, but I mean this. They plan to appeal to the Supreme Court.

[Pat Godwin]

By the way, it's called a banana appeal.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I liked it.

[Chick McGee]

I liked it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry I stepped on it. Very good pet. I stepped on a banana and slipped and ruined it. I am, I, I'm opposed to saying that they're humans though.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, of course.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And I, in fact, I'm interested in taking away the rights of many humans.

[Josh Arnold]

You take away the rights of a gym.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, wow. Is that really going to go that well?

[Christy Lee]

I mean, maybe it's the state Supreme Court. I don't know if it'll go to the Supreme Supreme Court. Okay, so it doesn't seem like a lot of money to go.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it sounds like a made up problem to me. They're okay. They're fine. Right.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know the condition of these chimpanzees. I can't.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I mean, if it's bad, get them out of there, Right?

[Christy Lee]

Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't scientists say that if you give, if you have a thousand chimpanzees and you give them all typewriters, eventually one of them is going to throw poop at you?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, they do say that.

[Tom Griswold]

Isn't that an old philosophical argument?

[Christy Lee]

Okay, there's that.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you imagine that? Well, we've been waiting for 5, 000 years. Finally one of them wrote Macbeth. Wait a minute, there's a typo on the last, like, oh, keep typing, fellas.

[Christy Lee]

No, you know how closely they are to us DNA.

[Josh Arnold]

That's why they kind of creep me out.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they are.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't like that?

[Christy Lee]

You don't like that little baby chimpanzees have that little cute little baby face that are just like, oh my God.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I don't, I don't like monkeys very much so. I don't, I like gorillas a lot, but I don't know, like, you know, I champs. I don't like baboons. Or ranges or anything like that. I must have been torn asunder by one in a past life.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, obviously.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't like that big red ass and a bad boy.

[Josh Arnold]

I think they're. I think they're absolutely disgusting. I don't go to the monkey house at a zoo. I don't like it.

[Christy Lee]

In fact, when we were. We were watching the Omen the other night, and that baboon scene is just frightening.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. The animals don't care for old Damien.

[Christy Lee]

No, they don't.

[Josh Arnold]

They can sense the baboon, those teeth.

[Tom Griswold]

And the baboons are. Those are scary.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Those red butts.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that should be in a commercial for roids. Hi, Bill. Baboon for even helped me. You think you got it rough? Take a look at this. This thing itches. It hurts. Well, anyway, guys, so we'll see what happens. But I mean, I hope the chimps are being well treated.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, of course.

[Tom Griswold]

But I don't think we have to go to the point of actually saying that they're. They have rights.

[Josh Arnold]

They have rights as animals. They're which are important because if they.

[Tom Griswold]

Have rights, then they're going to start smoking and people are going to go, hey, don't give cigarettes to the chimps. Hey, listen, it's their decision.

[Josh Arnold]

They like it.

[Tom Griswold]

You see, Wash. Washo over here, he decided not to get vaccinated. He did his own homework.

[Josh Arnold]

I was having fun with that.

[Tom Griswold]

Washer did his own research. Research. So 10,000 kids get polio. Washoe decided for himself.

[Josh Arnold]

You have to shut up.

[Tom Griswold]

What's coming up, Christy Lee?

[Christy Lee]

Coming up, we have a guy who stole a. Crashed a fire truck. Isn't this like our second fire truck stolen in a week?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know what's going on there.

[Josh Arnold]

It's got to be fun.

[Christy Lee]

And it's got to be in what state?

[Josh Arnold]

Florida.

[Christy Lee]

Yep. You got it. Oh, yeah. Coming up.

[Tom Griswold]

It's probably pretty tricky stealing a fire.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it must be.

[Christy Lee]

It has to be, right? Driving it.

[Tom Griswold]

Just check it out.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, it's the Bob and Tom show live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. We are a week away from Halloween. There's Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance Company news desk. Pat Godwin's over there on his way to Mason City Limits this weekend. Saturday night. Only get [e-mail] mclimits.com There's Jeff Oscar at the prize pick Sports desk.

[Chick McGee]

What was your best Halloween costume?

[Josh Arnold]

My favorite was the Joker when I was like 10 or 11. It was based on the Jack Nicholson Joker. That movie had just come out that year.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

I loved it. Yeah, had like a purple suit and the makeup. Nice. There's Ace Cosby. I'm Josh Arnold of the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. Tom, did you have a favorite costume that you can remember?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, probably Charlie McCarthy. Very quite dated at the time.

[Christy Lee]

This ought to be good.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, it's fair.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, there was a, there was a person by the name, the name of Renee Richards.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember this? Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

The tennis player.

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

She was one of the first.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Friends.

[Tom Griswold]

Friends. Yes. Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

These were. You probably. I probably shouldn't even tell you probably shouldn't. Yeah. No, no, no, no.

[Josh Arnold]

This went way better than I even thought.

[Pat Godwin]

Don't tell me you dressed as Renee Richards.

[Christy Lee]

Went as Renee Richards.

[Tom Griswold]

I did.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, did you have a tennis skirt?

[Tom Griswold]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

It got. It gets better. Better. I had. I had a lot of hair then, and my sister, who is, of course, a famous fashion model and an expert at that, so she did my hair for me.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

And I had two tennis balls made into a necklace. It was great. Everything you can't do today without getting canceled. At the time, though, that was like, a huge news story.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's great.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm surprised there hasn't been a biopic on that. Maybe there has and I missed out.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it could be. I think. I think the person's name actually was, like, Dr. Dick Raskin, who's some famous eye surgeon or something. And a really good tennis player.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So that was like the. No. No harm intended, just.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, no, of course not.

[Tom Griswold]

You're being so pat. Your best costume ever.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, my best costume was supposed to be Batman, but it kind of got ruined at the end because it was cold, so my mom made me put a jack jacket on.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure.

[Pat Godwin]

That was the best Batman, actually.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Was it Adam West? Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

TV Batman. Plaster. Plaster Paris mask and everything.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow.

[Pat Godwin]

Mom spent a lot of time on.

[Christy Lee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Mr. Oskar. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I went as Bob Ross.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, cool.

[Chick McGee]

I had a nice leisure suit and I had my hair all fro out and carried a little easel.

[Christy Lee]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

Everyone. Everyone enjoyed it.

[Tom Griswold]

That's still a good costume.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, when was. We had the story about the Bob Ross auction. Has that taken place?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. I'd have to look it up. It's. We don't.

[Tom Griswold]

You might have been on vacation. The. Bob Ross is the guy on PBS for who had. I know. You do. I just. He was a former, like. Like army drill sergeant or something, and. But he had this very quiet manner.

[Christy Lee]

About him, very nice voice.

[Tom Griswold]

And he filmed a couple hundred episodes of the show and they still air it. But his paintings, he did thousands of them. Almost all of them are in a warehouse somewhere, I think in Virginia. But they were releasing, I don't know, six or whatever. Not very many of them to sell for PBS.

[Josh Arnold]

The auction begins November 11th.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Christy, your best costume.

[Christy Lee]

My ex and I went as Boris and Natasha one time.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's fine.

[Christy Lee]

And I Was Boris obviously, because he's 64 and I'm 5ft and he was Natasha. Russia.

[Al Jackson]

Oh cool.

[Christy Lee]

We won the prize. That. Oh cool. I got to carry the little bomb.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way, if you. I, I've actually seen this at an airport. When you say the little bomb, you mean the one that's. It looks like a globe with a few sticking out of the top. And they had a thing with a picture of one of those with a line through it. Like that's, that's how we make bombs today.

[Christy Lee]

I don't think we ever made bombs like that, did we?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know. But that's, that's. I guess that's the universal.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I mean everyone knows that. So.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Ace, did you ever go as a kiss member?

[Josh Arnold]

No, it was alf.

[Chick McGee]

I dyed my hair. Oh yeah, that's awesome.

[Christy Lee]

Fur coat. Smart. Depending on the check local listings.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good. Now we mentioned the story about this is I believe our second stolen fire truck this week.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. This is a guy, this time in Florida. He's been arrested after he allegedly stole and crashed a fire truck. According to Tampa Police, the 59 year old Warren Scudder drove off with a Tampa fire rescue engine that had been parked outside St. Joseph's Hospital at 9:25am during his little joyride, he crashed into a Lexus SUV before police caught up with the suspect, blocked the engine's path and took him into custody. He now faces numerous charges, as you can imagine, including burglary of an unoccupied conveyance, grand theft of emergency medical equipment and DUI with property damage. He had a blood alcohol of 0.197 by the way.

[Tom Griswold]

9:30 in the morning?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Or as we call it, Florida last call. You're hammered at 9:30 in the morning. I mean, we've all maybe been a little tipsy, but. Have you ever been I'm gonna steal a fire truck drunk?

[Christy Lee]

No, not at 9 in the morning.

[Josh Arnold]

Anytime I was, I know I've been, I'm gonna steal a golf cart drunk. Because once I got drunk and stole a golf cart, my buddy and I laughed and laughed.

[Chick McGee]

You know you could get a DUI in a golf cart. Like how embarrassing that one.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Lose your license?

[Christy Lee]

Did you crash?

[Josh Arnold]

No, we just cruised around the St Patrick's Day parade and just had a.

[Pat Godwin]

Ball.

[Tom Griswold]

And I just found the previous drunk one was a lady.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, right.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, and also, also apparently. Apparently drunk. Yeah, so. But she actually didn't crash. She just ditched the fire truck at an intersection yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

At an intersection.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Ironically, like, I was just thinking about this. After you steal a fire truck, usually you get to have a ride in a police car for free. Oh, sure, you might cough.

[Josh Arnold]

It's two for one, but.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Where's the funniest place to drive a stolen fire truck?

[Christy Lee]

Funniest place.

[Josh Arnold]

Like the funniest place to pull a.

[Chick McGee]

Fire truck into another firehouse or a McDonald's drive thru.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, you might get stuck.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you're not. Yeah, you're gonna get stuck. A fair question. We'll give it some thought and come back on Monday. Thanks so much for joining us.
