Let me ask you more about your dad. Now someone told me that your dad was a singer.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is that true? No, he's not a singer.

[Chick McGee]

He was one of those guys, I mean, not only being cheap, he was kind of guy who sit in front of the TV set and tried to.

[Bob Kevoian]

Sing everything on the tube. Oh Lord, what's wrong with him?

[Chick McGee]

Everything.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, but his whole thing was to.

[Chick McGee]

Jazz it up, whatever it was.

[Bob Kevoian]

And so one day we're watching Flipper. Uh huh. Right.

[Chick McGee]

And you know how that Flipper tune.

[Bob Kevoian]

They call him Flipper. Flipper Kids.

[Chick McGee]

We're just singing flipping faster than like my dad would just jazz it up. Come on.

[Bob Kevoian]

No one in the sea is smarter than he. And you know, Flipper lives in a world full of wonder. Flying here under the sea, talking about Flippers.

[Chick McGee]

You have a great voice. That's scary. You're so good at that. We backing up, you know. Go ahead daddy, sing that Flip A song. You sing beautifully.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's great.

[Chick McGee]

Great voice. Kind of a high voice, like kind of an Aaron Neville thing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, you know Aaron.

[Chick McGee]

Man, I love Aaron.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh yeah, yeah, I like that. Dude, he kind of ticked me off because he's singing that commercial now. I've forgotten.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I guess that's progr.

[Bob Kevoian]

Take that song out the air and go. Nothing touch not feeling it lingers all night long. The touch and that feel of cotton. Oh, I love this song.

[Chick McGee]

I'm thinking that's all right, man, but.

[Bob Kevoian]

We picked this stuff for 300 years.

[Tom Griswold]

Brother.

[Bob Kevoian]

Could have picked a better tune to sing. He's just as bad as that brother up there in Lake Aetna. For kfc, we do chicken, right.

[Chick McGee]

Nobody realized that's the only brother in.

[Bob Kevoian]

Lake Edna.

[Chick McGee]

Cooking chicken now.

[Bob Kevoian]

What kind of joke. Hey, good morning.

[Tom Griswold]

The comedy starts right away.

[Bob Kevoian]

Thumb down, fart noise. Hello, hello, hello. From the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios today. Every text you get, just reply. Thumb down, fart noise. It's the Bob and Tom show at the news desk today. Today, today in history. For sitting in for Christy Lee, it's Sarah Lashley.

[Tom Griswold]

We'll get your mic up there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Pat Godwin. Hey. Never ceases to amaze me. There's Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ace Cosby. I'm Chick and hello, Tom. How are you, bud?

[Tom Griswold]

Good.

[Chick McGee]

We got to get you to print out your. Your list of the best horror movies, Josh. Josh is certainly our resident expert.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought we did that.

[Chick McGee]

We talked about it in the air, but I wanted to get a print out of it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you do? Okay, I'll print something.

[Bob Kevoian]

You want a hard copy? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Halloween Night of the Living Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Exorcist.

[Tom Griswold]

Now that. Wait a second.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wait a minute, Wait a minute. What is the Exorcist?

[Chick McGee]

That's a version. It's a scary movie with chickens.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the sequel to Poultry.

[Bob Kevoian]

Guys, that's. We're done. Let's go.

[Chick McGee]

We got the brand new fart emoji, and now this. This show's been great. Thanks for listening. We'll see you later. All right. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

That was a list of five movies that somebody who has never watched horror movies should start with.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So if you want the list of my favorites, I can make that. If you want the list of what I consider the best, I would like.

[Chick McGee]

I'd love to see both those.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hereditary on that.

[Tom Griswold]

Hereditary is on.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, it was on the list.

[Bob Kevoian]

Top 10. The ones you should start with that was that.

[Tom Griswold]

You asked for some modern ones. Yeah. And that was. Those two were on there.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Well, I don't say.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know if I should, if I write necessarily said you asked me what's what scared me or disturbed me. Those were on the list. I wouldn't start with those. Those are not gateway horror movies.

[Shara Lashley]

What are the gateway ones?

[Tom Griswold]

I gave them to Tommy the.

[Chick McGee]

Well, Halloween Night of the Living Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Exorcist.

[Bob Kevoian]

Are you saying that you shouldn't start off with something that will absolutely terrify you?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Or ruin your week?

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, Poltergeist.

[Tom Griswold]

I put up there because it's. You can almost watch it with your family.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that's true.

[Tom Griswold]

Even though it'll, you know, scare everybody.

[Bob Kevoian]

The Spielberg touch. When you.

[Chick McGee]

When you were a little kid, what scared you was different?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, drunk daddy, right? Oh, that's terrifying.

[Chick McGee]

Coming home on a Friday night.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I mean, with regard. I mean, with regard to movies and television shows, I found the Frankenstein movie absolutely terrifying. And then I had terrible night, terrible nightmares about Creature from the Black Lagoon.

[Bob Kevoian]

Say, Creature from the.

[Chick McGee]

That's disturbing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because my Creature from the Black is a movie called Cyclops. It scared the hell out. He had. He was a cyclops, A monster.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that one got you terrified.

[Chick McGee]

But I think movies and television have done so much damage to culture, and I think the way certain people were portrayed in movies was really damaging. People perceive. And I've told you many times, this is very awkward, but there was an episode of Our Gang slash the Little Rascals in which.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, that is me signing the Wild.

[Chick McGee]

Man from Borneo was chasing kids around and going, yum, yum, eat them up. And that terrified me.

[Drew Powell]

And the seeds.

[Tom Griswold]

The seeds of xenophobia.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, exactly.

[Bob Kevoian]

I mean, I can't leave Shaker ever.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. I'm just saying we as a culture do a lot of damage to children with some of the movies that were made.

[Shara Lashley]

I'm still really afraid of vampires. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, vampires.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, yeah. I don't even know what specific movie maybe vampire wasn't. Or what was the Dracula in, like, the 90s?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. The Coppola version.

[Chick McGee]

How many have there been? 100.

[Tom Griswold]

It's got to be probably. If you count internationally. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And the sexiest one would be from the 70s, I think. Franklin, the Frank Langella Dracula.

[Bob Kevoian]

Never saw that one.

[Chick McGee]

That. That. I think probably the sexy.

[Bob Kevoian]

You think Frank Langella is sexy?

[Chick McGee]

I think he's got the best Hollywood book ever. The Frank Langella. Great actor. If you want to read a terrific book, read that one, the first chapter. I won't even. It's the most incredible thing that has probably ever happened to anybody in a sort of random, oh, there. Here's a famous person way. In any event, Josh can get to work on those lists, please.

[Tom Griswold]

You got it.

[Chick McGee]

All right. I'm looking forward to.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Are there special releases? I know a bunch of movie theaters right now are doing. They're bringing back classic movies every week. They just did the Godfather, I think a couple.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, the 25th and the 50th and all those are coming.

[Chick McGee]

Jaws. But a lot of the theaters at least around here. Every week they're doing. They're re releasing older movies. Do you know if they're doing any of the classic horror movies? Have you seen.

[Tom Griswold]

They are, yeah. One theater near. Well, a couple of them. But one theater particularly is doing one every day for the 31 days.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And some of them are obviously better seen in a. In a theater situation.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. In fact, I'm finally gonna see Friday the 13th Part 3 in 3D. In 3D.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Because I never got to see it. And that will be showings.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I maintain there's nothing funnier than watching a 3 originally released in 3D and watching it at home on your.

[Tom Griswold]

As they poke the knife at the screen.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh yeah. Well, this is surprising. And they. Right at the screen.

[Chick McGee]

Wasn't there an attempt. Am I hallucinating? To do 3D television that bond.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It just didn't quite look. Did you have one chick?

[Bob Kevoian]

I did not. Failed magnificently.

[Chick McGee]

I mean they've tried a bunch of stuff that didn't work. Quadraphonic. Never really took off. And I know we'll get a letter from some guy who has.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm sure you had this guy. I watch. I'll make the drums go around the room, man.

[Chick McGee]

No, I. But I never fell for that one. No, no, no, no. The digital cassette that didn't fly. There are a number of failed. Failed mini disc that didn't fly either, did it?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we've got some letters to get to and some of the recurring themes of our letters involve T shirts. And my contention that a lot of folks wearing T shirts have no idea what the shirt signifies. And I give you the example of the Nirvana T shirt that is everywhere. And I saw at one point both of my daughters had one on and I asked them if they knew what that meant and they had no idea. Got this letter from Harmony. She writes, my five year old daughter came home wearing a Rolling Stones T shirt. I said, cool shirt. She said, yeah, it's the lips and tongues.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Certainly one of the. That has to be the best rock and roll logo.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. There's a documentary about the guy who came up with that and he came up with a bunch of logos like that. It's really interesting.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's. That's certainly definitive. But. And it's a.

[Bob Kevoian]

That is iconic.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Unlike Frank Zappa's Phi Zappa. Crappa non iconic.

[Chick McGee]

I live in a world. I live in a world of the ultra hip and for the.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is that right?

[Chick McGee]

Yes. For hipsters. Such as myself.

[Bob Kevoian]

No kidding.

[Chick McGee]

The Frank Zappa Phi Zappa Crappa poster represents a certain era, a milestone. If you seen your face on Zappa's.

[Bob Kevoian]

Body in that poster.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's very funny.

[Chick McGee]

You got McDuffin.

[Bob Kevoian]

Good morning, Bob and Tom show. This is from Alex in Fresno, California. This might be regional, but at my son's school, the most popular shirt is the Phi Zappa crappa poster on the shirt.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, cool.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hope this helps.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Bob Kevoian]

It doesn't, but thanks. Alex.

[Chick McGee]

We should explain. Share. Frank Zappa, terrific artist. No longer with us. Great guitar player, arranger, composer.

[Bob Kevoian]

Never know from the music you release. A glong and a glockenspiel. Oh, man, that rocks.

[Chick McGee]

His name actually is Frank Zappa, and there is a famous poster. I say famous. Of him sitting on a toilet, and it said, fi Zappa crap. Other two different poses. Of course. I guess only the ultra hip would know that. But everyone around here contends that it doesn't exist.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, no. Not what we said.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Said it wasn't popular.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm coming to talk to you during the break. All right. Go nowhere.

[Chick McGee]

Here's why.

[Bob Kevoian]

Stay right here.

[Chick McGee]

Yesterday.

[Bob Kevoian]

Keep him here.

[Chick McGee]

We were talking about, should you put nitrogen in your tires?

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

This was a big thing a few years ago. I know. Yeah. One of the places I bought a car, the whole deal was. Oh, yeah. You get free nitrogen for the length of. You have your car, whatever. They folded that up about a year later. He said it was a NASCAR thing. When the temperatures in the tires go up, the circumference of the tires.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you got your.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. I just put air in my tires. The roundness of the. This is from Rick in Green Bay. This is interesting. He puts Green Bay. But I'm a Vikings fan.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's. That's a tough call. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

He goes, you guys were talking about things your dad would say to you. Whenever someone was talking foolish or being demanding, my dad would always say to them, go, flour your nuts.

[Tom Griswold]

Weird.

[Chick McGee]

He goes, I don't know what the hell it means, but I use it to this day.

[Tom Griswold]

Also glad to know that listener is 13 months behind on shows.

[Chick McGee]

You know what?

[Tom Griswold]

I just realized what's happening here. You're not fooling anybody. Tom, you have a stack? Yeah, he's pulling from a stack, April.

[Bob Kevoian]

And by the way, what happened to the new show? Tell me about this. You go over to Tom, you pick up something over there.

[Tom Griswold]

He didn't care for it. So it doesn't happen.

[Chick McGee]

No, you can do it.

[Tom Griswold]

I need to see that email. I want to see the.

[Chick McGee]

It is today. No, it's not.

[Bob Kevoian]

Tell me about this. Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. I just.

[Chick McGee]

I just. I just love the Go flour your nuts.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That is weird.

[Bob Kevoian]

Have you heard give your nuts a tug? That means sack up. More or less.

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, that one makes sense. I feel like the flour one. I don't really.

[Chick McGee]

Is there a Gold Bond reference? Is there a pro. Is there a process in cooking where you put flour on nuts?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Rocky Mountain oysters.

[Chick McGee]

Oh. Oh, there you go. I guess.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't imagine.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's. That's a stretch.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

What about chestnuts? Roast pine nuts on an open fire.

[Chick McGee]

Now, do you ever use Gold Bond in your. You know.

[Bob Kevoian]

No. I told you, I have fresh balls. It goes on as a lotion and it ends up as a powder.

[Chick McGee]

That's the product.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. They have fresh balls, they have fresh breasts, they have fresh buttocks.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that a daily or is it like a. Oh, it's a yard work day.

[Bob Kevoian]

Every morning. Wow.

[Chick McGee]

So wait a second.

[Bob Kevoian]

Good. Good morning.

[Chick McGee]

Is it in a squeeze tube?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. And by the way, do not get it mixed up with your toothpaste.

[Chick McGee]

I just did that with aquifer last week.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah, you did?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I had to. I have to put aquifer on my ear where I had the stitches, so I bought aquifer. It comes in a tube. And as you know, I get dressed in pitch blackness because I don't want to wake up Kelly. So I'm fumbling around.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, there's the Aquafresh. No fur.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, it's.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it. It's in a tube.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

So now I've. I've put that. It now goes in the other side of my drawer.

[Tom Griswold]

Smart.

[Chick McGee]

So I don't do that stupid thing again. By the way, not very tasty, but my. My teeth aren't scabbing over.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's always a plus.

[Bob Kevoian]

Aquaphor, I think, is just lubricant. It's like a water. Water based nothing.

[Chick McGee]

It says right here in my little list of recovery stuff, it's the only thing you're allowed to put on the. Well, you can't. You can't put any.

[Bob Kevoian]

And you are sickler for following a doctor's instructions, that's for sure. Yeah, the caffeine.

[Chick McGee]

Not usually I just decide on my own.

[Bob Kevoian]

I know.

[Chick McGee]

It's the American way. I do my own homework. I'm becoming a.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, she's in the UK somewhere today.

[Bob Kevoian]

She.

[Tom Griswold]

September's in Europe.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes. The best time.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello, Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Where do you September. Do you want to know anyone who.

[Bob Kevoian]

Would ask that question? It really is the best time to go. You must go. There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. Hello, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Is the. The ruffians have left town.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

It's hard to find a good waiter in August. Okay, now this is obscure. I know we're gonna go into this with something a little bit obscure.

[Bob Kevoian]

You're nervous and you're.

[Chick McGee]

I'm nervous. Sometimes we just have to do them for the intelligentsia. This goes. This is kind of an obscure track. For those of you that are fan, I'll do this kind of backwards. Fans of the great Peter Frampton.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's a track.

[Chick McGee]

Peter Frampton, of course, good friend of the show, terrific musician, a Grammy winner. He was not in this band. But prior to his, prior to his solo career, he was in the great band Humble Pie.

[Bob Kevoian]

Huh?

[Chick McGee]

And Humble Pie, before they were Humble Pie, there was a band called the Small Faces featuring Steve Marriott, who. They all had small faces and they would evolve into the Faces. Ronnie Lane, you're familiar with the Small. They did have one big hit in the United States and it's. It was called Itchy Coup. And by the way, the origins of it's an actual place where these guys would go when they were kids near London. And they called it that because there was a. There were bugs in the park and they would get all itchy. So they all called it Ichiku park. Kind of a Sweet story. I feel like Casey Kasem. I'm just gonna play a little bit of the song for you.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Bob Kevoian]

I remember this. Yes. Over bridge of sights to rest my eyes in shades of green and let it go because it gets really good.

[Chick McGee]

Nice organ in there. What did you do?

[Bob Kevoian]

There's all.

[Chick McGee]

You get the idea.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

And you recognize that voice of Steve Marriott. If you've ever gotten into Humble Pie, I'd recommend Live at the Fillmore. Great album. And like I said, that was kind of their only hit. Well, we had a news story yesterday from the Aspen Times. I believe Shara has it over there about another park here in the United States.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah. The city of Aspen is making improvements to Glory Hole Park. The Aspen Times reports that the project to enhance pedestrian safety and accessibility at Glory Hole park will run through October 3rd. Glory Hole park will soon be accessible to those in wheelchairs, on crutches or those who use other adaptive methods.

[Tom Griswold]

That's good.

[Chick McGee]

But the name Glory Hole.

[Shara Lashley]

Unbelievable. How did they get away with that?

[Chick McGee]

Well, I finally did some research on this, and as you. I think one of you guys figured it out. A Glory Hole actually has its origins in things other than what one might think it is in today's contemporary slaying. A Glory Hole is a.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's a lovely moment.

[Tom Griswold]

A hole between dividers.

[Chick McGee]

In a toilet.

[Bob Kevoian]

Between two men.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

A woman and a man.

[Tom Griswold]

It doesn't have to necessarily be in a bathroom. Well, it doesn't.

[Shara Lashley]

I don't think.

[Bob Kevoian]

No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Just a hole in the wall.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

Or just even a fake wall.

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Shara Lashley]

I think.

[Chick McGee]

And it's anonymous. In any event, Pat, you have developed a brilliant tribute to the Glory Hole.

[Tom Griswold]

I saw a lot of guys.

[Bob Kevoian]

To my eyes, the park was pickle green under sunny sky highs to Glory Hall Park.

[Greg Warren]

That's where I've been.

[Chick McGee]

Why did you go there?

[Bob Kevoian]

Can I tell you why? What did you see there? I closed my eyes.

[Chick McGee]

Were there girls?

[Bob Kevoian]

There might have been a guy. It's all anonymous like the back of a Greyhound bus. You could go there, too.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, there's a second verse.

[Bob Kevoian]

You could go there, too. Spring, summer, winter, fall here's what you do. Go to Glory Hole park and find a bathroom stall.

[Chick McGee]

And when you go there, park in the rear. What did you feel there?

[Bob Kevoian]

Have no fear. But were there girls? There might have been a guy. It's all anonymous like the back of a Greyhound bus.

[Greg Warren]

Isn't that pretty?

[Tom Griswold]

It is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Very nice.

[Shara Lashley]

Sweet.

[Bob Kevoian]

Lovely song. Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Now, this beautiful city of Aspen, Colorado, apparently the I Guess the, the people voted on Glory Hole park for the name in mining. A glory hole refers to a large open excavation. So. And then it's also a term in glass blowing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh.

[Chick McGee]

It refers to a high temperature furnace opening.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow. Well, that makes more sense.

[Chick McGee]

And then in contemporary slang it's a. It says here a wall or partition, often in bathrooms or adult theaters, used for anonymous encounters of the most intimate variety. But in any event, Glory hall park.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know, is part of the excitement, the absolute leap of faith that you must, you must go through and not.

[Tom Griswold]

Knowing who it is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Or not knowing what's going to happen.

[Chick McGee]

And who knows, facing potential death, the.

[Bob Kevoian]

Person on the other side might have a, have a hat pin or a big darning needle.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, the hat pin. That's the worst way to go.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

There are no good ways to die. That's got to be.

[Chick McGee]

And there was, when I was in college, there was a glory hole in the main library and the building at Columbia. Yeah, the low library. The main building had been, it was very, very old and the, and the partitions were solid oak, but right there. And I didn't know what it was, there was this hole and you could tell it had been primarily carved out with Bic pens. You know, there was kind of a.

[Bob Kevoian]

Are you telling me Alexander Hamilton might have taken advantage of this at Columbia?

[Chick McGee]

It was called King's College then. But I think they'd moved it. I forget the exact geographical location.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it at the right height?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, well, yeah, in. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Boy, I did not, I did not take part.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, sure, I'm glad you didn't.

[Chick McGee]

And I was, I was never, I never had an unpleasant encounter. I was never seated and suddenly.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, what's that hitting in the back of my head?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now traditionally the glory hole is aside, not in the back of your head.

[Tom Griswold]

Right, right. But if you were just sitting, this.

[Chick McGee]

Would, this would have been like just about eye level, but a little bit forward.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I actually, I actually had a very lengthy discussion about it with the dean of the college. Is that right, Mr. Peter Pouncey? Yes, Dr. Peter.

[Shara Lashley]

He was aware of it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh yeah. And he had a couple good stories about. He was a great guy. But it was. I'm sure it's probably been repaired by now.

[Bob Kevoian]

Was he now known to pounce on a Peter or two?

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no.

[Bob Kevoian]

Peter Pound.

[Chick McGee]

That was just his name. Great guy. Now we will move forward here. Do you have something of an audio nature also, I believe.

[Bob Kevoian]

What's your. What are you saying?

[Chick McGee]

Involving a song?

[Bob Kevoian]

We were Talking about these are. We've got two or three or 400 letters like this last night during the Monday night football games. First of all, Denver beat Cincinnati 28 to 3. Come on, Bengals. Gee, Chris. And Miami beats the Jets 27, 21. And Tyree Kill looks like he's out for the season, if not a career ending injury with that left dislocation, left knee dislocation. Here's what happened during the commercial last night. Monday night game for the new Google Pixel 10. And the song they're using for the new Google phone is. And people are losing their minds. They're blaming us.

[Chick McGee]

They think that I got some troubles.

[Bob Kevoian]

But they won't let down here in the grave. Alex said he knew the song because of us.

[Chick McGee]

It's growing on me.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah, Nancy Sinatra. I wonder how she got that record contract.

[Chick McGee]

Is that a guitar, Pat? Sounds like.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Electric guitar or a flute. Insight.

[Chick McGee]

We're gonna argue about this again.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you won.

[Greg Warren]

You won.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, the live recording. They were using a guitar in the studio production. I'm still convinced it's a food.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry. Let's get back to Sugar Town. So I did. I did not watch the game.

[Bob Kevoian]

So greetings from Phoenix tonight. I was watching Monday Night Football. Preoccupied. Immediately noticed a familiar song playing on the TV I've only heard on the Bob at Tom Show. None other than he writes Sugar Town.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

How weird, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, it's just a parallel development.

[Chick McGee]

We got into an argument last year when I mentioned how many classic rock and pop songs appear on commercials in the super bowl. And it's amazing.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think psychologically it probably makes. Somehow makes people feel better.

[Chick McGee]

And then Ace and I both heard the. That Ramones. What is it? Blitzkrieg Bop. Yeah, by the Ramones is currently on a commercial. Is it a pharmaceutical? Yes, Pfizer. Yeah. I mean, so you know, the. The CBGB punk scene now. Now selling pharmaceuticals, which is fine with me, by the way, but it's really.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's your target audience though, right? That age group?

[Chick McGee]

Probably, yeah. You know, stuff that was emerging in the mid-70s. Now the people that were 20 in the mid-70s need help going to the toilet. We should come up with a list of the worst possible toilet procedures. No, the worst possible songs. I mean, that. I've always hated that Alice Cooper song Only Women Bleed. And fortunately.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, that's a pretty song though, isn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I could get away with that. Yeah. But I just envision a bad Tampex commercial. Whatever the hell Billy Joel is. Doing weight watchers commercials.

[Bob Kevoian]

Was he? Yeah. Huh.

[Chick McGee]

Can you play one for.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I'll do one for you.

[Chick McGee]

I didn't really.

[Tom Griswold]

Joel.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Do we have to.

[Tom Griswold]

Billy Joe for a little Jenny Craig?

[Bob Kevoian]

She's got away.

[Tom Griswold]

250.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you had me.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dear Bob and Tom, show chick mentioned Lynda Carter. Should have had a role in the new wonder woman movies. I stand corrected. She was in Wonder Woman 1984. Oh, right at the end. It may have been an end credit scene, but she was portraying wonder woman's mom.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, all right.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then he goes on about inflating tires at a service station. Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Huh?

[Bob Kevoian]

He said, I was putting gas in someone's car, sort of watching across the drive. All of a sudden he yelled o s and took off running. He made it a couple steps before the entire tire exploded with a huge boom. No one was hurt. First time I heard a 12 letter swear word. It doesn't say what he used. Doesn't say what the 12 letters was.

[Chick McGee]

I'd have to sit down and go through my list.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'd have to.

[Chick McGee]

Now, Josh, you were putting a. Air on a bicycle tire over the weekend and it blew up in your face.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the tube blew up and. Yeah. Hurt.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hurt the.

[Tom Griswold]

Hurt the ear.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you have a mobile bike repair kit on your bike? Like with a. Like a long, thin handle pump or something like that?

[Tom Griswold]

I have a. What I was using to fill the tire.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

An air compressor. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yep.

[Bob Kevoian]

Technology. Tom, do you go out in the.

[Chick McGee]

Roads with a mini pump? Are you out there on this?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no. I don't take.

[Chick McGee]

No, I do. I do the same thing. I take a phone. It's the best way to fix a flat tire. Hello? Yeah, I. I'm. I'm halfway down the monon Wood triple.

[Bob Kevoian]

A, probably with a little bit of teasing. Would they come out and fix a bike tire?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know, man.

[Bob Kevoian]

I mean, and why shouldn't they?

[Tom Griswold]

So I. I think it's. I think it's easier to change a car tire than it is the bike tire with all the chains on it.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought. You're right. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think that's one of their services. While we. I've never had to call them for that. I've called them for many other things.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember trying to figure out the physics of getting the. Your chain back on your bike and then.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then discovering it. I thought you'd walk to the moon.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. But I could never remember. Like. But then if it happened again, I was like, all right. How did I do that?

[Bob Kevoian]

The last.

[Chick McGee]

The last time I got it back on, I was trying to use a stick and finally I gave up and got my fingers awful of grease. And then I had to kind of ride with my hands all crippled to find a place with racks. And I now carry in my little pouch in the back of the bike I have rubber gloves.

[Bob Kevoian]

How about that neighbor kid got his chain back on, but the tip of his left index finger was cut off.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, geez.

[Bob Kevoian]

In the chain and the sprocket? Yeah. Oh, wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you don't want to spin the tire while you're putting the chain on.

[Bob Kevoian]

You kind of have to chomped right down on it. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's rough.

[Chick McGee]

Coming up, we have a really cool car news. Also, do you guys know what profi is?

[Tom Griswold]

No. Is it a type of coffee?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. And it's apparently the latest thing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Frothy coffee.

[Tom Griswold]

Profit coffee for your prostate.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yes. Coffee for your professor.

[Chick McGee]

It sounds like the word profit. Profit sounds like someone you'd call.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, Prof. Hey.

[Chick McGee]

The cool guy. No, it's protein enriched coffee and it's like the new big thing. I've never heard of it, but apparently it's taking over the world. Also, we have a really odd story about peacocks. I'll need your peacock sound effect at some point. Thank you very much. And the election's over in New Zealand. Did you know that there are almost no mammals that are native to New Zealand?

[Tom Griswold]

Weird.

[Chick McGee]

Like there's some kind of a bat and some. That's it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is that right?

[Chick McGee]

So it's all birds. And then there are some. There are some mammals that were brought in.

[Bob Kevoian]

They have a bird of the year.

[Chick McGee]

Contest and I got the results.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, very good.

[Chick McGee]

It's huge. The bird, you know, the. The amount of people that participate in this thing.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a nine foot bird.

[Bob Kevoian]

I nominate whatever bird contest we're doing, I nominate the Shoe Bill Stork. You guys know this bird? I showed him to you one morning.

[Tom Griswold]

It looks like a puppet.

[Bob Kevoian]

It looks like an angry Muppet. That's exactly what it looks like.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we'll tell you who won.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right. It wasn't a shoebill stork, was it?

[Chick McGee]

No, it's. But it's a beautiful bird.

[Bob Kevoian]

Beautiful plumage.

[Chick McGee]

Good morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, chick.

[Bob Kevoian]

Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ace Cosby Hello, I am Chick McGee and we are in the listeners email section of the show. Got a couple more.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, go ahead. What do you got?

[Bob Kevoian]

Dear Bob and Top Show, My name is Joe and yes, I'm from Michigan. I was watching Return of the Pink Panther last night. During the fight scene with Kato and Inspector Clouso in his apartment, Cato sends Clouso flying through a Dutch door. Wasn't expecting that. And I also wasn't expecting Mr. Fong jump out of a refrigerator either.

[Drew Powell]

Remember?

[Bob Kevoian]

That's it?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ice on his face.

[Chick McGee]

That's so funny.

[Bob Kevoian]

Peter Sellers rocks. He certainly does.

[Tom Griswold]

They had a whole Sellers marathon last night.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, did they?

[Chick McGee]

Speaking of refrigerators, it ties right into this. All right, this comes to us from Alan. He says one of our dogs loves to eat ice cubes. I have two dogs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Evidently, it's not good for them.

[Chick McGee]

One of them loves ice cubes. The other sniffs them. Like, what is this? Okay, my dog meets us at the freezer whenever we open it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ice cube tax. I have to pay it with one of my dogs.

[Chick McGee]

My grandson was visiting early this summer and he said, grandpa, can I give Winnie a water cookie? That is great.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's great.

[Tom Griswold]

That is great.

[Chick McGee]

Good imagination. Good for you, buddy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dear Bob and Top Show.

[Chick McGee]

So wait a sec. We got to clarify. Is it bad for a dog to eat an ice cube?

[Bob Kevoian]

I think I read that. I think I read it. You shouldn't give them popcorn. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Popcorn and ice cubes are different.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, I know that.

[Chick McGee]

You don't go to a movie theater. Go. Would you like butter on your ice cubes?

[Bob Kevoian]

Was I trying to have a conversation?

[Tom Griswold]

Just so by the way, speak for yourself.

[Chick McGee]

You like butter on your know what.

[Bob Kevoian]

This Diet Coke needs? Can you squirt some butter in there, please?

[Tom Griswold]

You know, I worked in a theater for years. Thankfully, never had somebody request a little butter in their.

[Chick McGee]

Do you suppose there's somebody somewhere that has one of those fake butter machines at their house?

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, of course.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. With the home theater. Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Because what we poured in there was called butter flavored topping.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I hate to admit it, but I do kind of like it.

[Tom Griswold]

I did, too. I love it.

[Chick McGee]

I know. It's 99% preservative.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what it is. I always think, probably made a solid Mylar.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm sure I do. I spend way too much time at the butter topping station. I just.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sure I'll.

[Bob Kevoian]

I ladle it on, baby.

[Chick McGee]

They have heard this and they get annoyed when I repeat myself.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, no, no, don't roll. Shortcut.

[Shara Lashley]

Are you gonna do the straw trick? Is that what we're talking about?

[Chick McGee]

Look at that. Well, well, undercut again. Well, for those that are familiar with it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Take your bag of popcorn.

[Chick McGee]

Take your bag of popcorn. You take a straw, you shove it in that little nipple on the butter machine, and then you can. That way you can layer the fake butter because you can. You can have it go right down to the bottom there so you don't have to get up in the middle of the movie. Yes, the best, I must say, I typically find if I get to a movie on time, which I like to do, I like to sit there and have that transformation.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

I don't even mind watching commercials. I've usually finished the popcorn by the time the feature starts.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know, most places, the technician working at the theater will fill your popcorn bag half full, then you go butter it, then you bring it back and they fill it. The rest.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah, I've heard that.

[Tom Griswold]

I. Boy, I was the best at it.

[Chick McGee]

You would. You would do that as a courtesy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, because when I worked there, there was no option of the. The people didn't have access to the butter.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

We did it.

[Bob Kevoian]

You were checked out on the butter machine.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

So did you do a half? Like, when you got to the halfway point, you do a layer of butter and then fill.

[Tom Griswold]

Yep, I would. I'd do a layer of butter on the halfway. Give it a good shake.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Fill it again, give it a good shake, and then top her off. And, man, people raved.

[Shara Lashley]

We gotta get you back behind the concession stand. This sounds perfect.

[Bob Kevoian]

You are missing your calling, sir.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I was so proud of how I did it.

[Chick McGee]

But you really loved working at a movie theater.

[Tom Griswold]

Loved it. Yes. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

The same way I loved working at a Holiday Inn as a bellboy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Something about. But Chick, you never had, like, a job job like that, did you? You went right into radio.

[Bob Kevoian]

My first job was radio.

[Tom Griswold]

And it saddens me because I don't see that same sort of excitement when I. You know, when you see young people working at a fast food joint or a movie theater now, it's like, what happened?

[Shara Lashley]

Or anywhere. They don't have expression.

[Chick McGee]

It was so fun because they've been removed from their cell phones for more than one year.

[Bob Kevoian]

You want some water on your popcorn?

[Tom Griswold]

But we loved it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, we like it. I always have said, I want to go back and buy the state theater in London, Ohio, and show weird movies.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

And not care If I lose money.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

But you get that attitude. What's the, the movie. Oh, Fast Times the Ridgemont High. There was still that kind of gung ho, you know, working at the movie theater type thing. Working at fast food. Yeah, you could, you could sort of. You could sort of saw.

[Tom Griswold]

You saw your friends. You always. Yeah, it was awesome.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you fix your friends up with free. Free corn when they come to the.

[Tom Griswold]

Could do if they. So yeah, depending on them. If I asked the manager, you had.

[Bob Kevoian]

To do that first because you guys counted bags. Is that. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

So we could only. We had to use non. We had to use containers from home, that kind of thing. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

So you'd say to the manager, my buddy Roy's coming in. Can I give him a free popcorn?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. And so they would go, yeah, you can give them. What did he call them? Like goodie bag or something. And it was just a cheap paper bag and you would fill it. But we had a promotion there for a while where we were giving out Lion King buckets. So there was hard buck. And so many people would leave them in the theater. And if you asked them, hey, can I keep one of these? Then you could take it home, wash it, bring it in. Every time you went to the movie. I had a couple buddies.

[Chick McGee]

Were they plastic?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, with plastic Lion King buckets. That Lion King hadn't been out for seven years. Faded to hell.

[Bob Kevoian]

Those things. Those things have. The plastic bucket merchandise is really taken back. Yeah. With all the movies and everything. They.

[Chick McGee]

Wasn't there a thing where it was like 75 bucks for some. I'll find it. We have a story when we come back. We'll get to that. Also coming up, a couple of great stories about birds. And I'm gonna need, once again, the peacock. Your famous peacock sound effect, please.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's mine. And this is actually a peacock.

[Chick McGee]

And they tend to annoy people, in this case leading to death.

[Bob Kevoian]

We'll get to that.

[Chick McGee]

Go to bobandtom.com contest before the Thursday night game starts in the NFL, pick all the winners, and you could win yourself a $500 gift certificate from Stephen Singer Jewelers. Now, with us in the studio, sitting in for Christie, it's a Cheryl Asli. We were talking about Josh's job working at a movie theater, which you loved. Yeah, making the popcorn. Did you ever have any unusual jobs coming up?

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, my first job was a Dairy Queen. It was pretty great. Mostly restaurants.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, Tom has a story about working at Dairy Queen, don't you?

[Chick McGee]

Well, the soft ice cream machine followed up, so I just put the lump of ice cream on top of the cone, put my mouth over it, went, and handed it to him. Oh, delicious. Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

I gave him a treat. That's right.

[Chick McGee]

Did you have to do the upside down thing with the.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, yeah. Just to dip it in the, like, hard shell.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, were you. You hand them the blizzard and go upside down and.

[Shara Lashley]

I was never tested. I think my boss was 16, you know?

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah. But I was great at making the little perfect rings with the little dollop on top.

[Chick McGee]

Dq, I'm a big fan. I'm a big fan. Fortunately, since I moved, there's a Dairy Queen even closer to my house.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, boy. Those dipped cones get. I don't think they get enough highlight there at Dairy Queen. Those are really good, right? Butterscotch. You like that one?

[Chick McGee]

I like that. I like the chocolate.

[Shara Lashley]

I like the chocolate one, too.

[Chick McGee]

And they're messy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can you get them half and half. Can you dunk the butterscotch and then dunk a chocolate in there over the butterscotch? I bet you could.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah. Because it hardens, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Really?

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hits the air, it gets hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Chocolate, butterscotch. Go good together.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. That was. It was close to being a peanut butter cup. Butterscotch cup.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh. You know, I'm glad history went the way it went.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, whenever it hits the air, Tom, it gets hard. Do you have anything that hits the air? Hits the air? The butterscotch topping. The chocolate topping hits the air.

[Chick McGee]

No, not at all.

[Tom Griswold]

Get your nipples. I mean, that would happen.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that would happen.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm talking about your nipples, I guess.

[Chick McGee]

If I'm standing in front of the freezer. But I like.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what I do.

[Chick McGee]

Like to do that, you know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Men have nipples, too.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Don't ignore them, but I don't have a functioning freezer right now, so. What? I've made a freezer.

[Bob Kevoian]

I've got a freezer.

[Chick McGee]

I've got one. It just doesn't work right now.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, boy.

[Chick McGee]

We're waiting for a lot of food. Oh, I had three giant garbage bags I had to chuck.

[Bob Kevoian]

See?

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, man.

[Bob Kevoian]

Don't get me wrong. I like nice things, but if you buy a freezer from Norway and something.

[Chick McGee]

Goes wrong, it's a sub zero you get right now. It's giving me zero cold air.

[Bob Kevoian]

A Viking. You know, you're gonna have to.

[Chick McGee]

No, it's. Which I spoke with thought was the best made. Apparently not. So, yeah, we're waiting for some kind of.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought it was best made, too. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what went well. I had three giant garbage bags full of food I had to throw away.

[Bob Kevoian]

No kidding. And what about the body you had in the freezer? Do you have to get rid of that?

[Chick McGee]

I keep that in the garage.

[Bob Kevoian]

I can give you. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What's going on over there?

[Bob Kevoian]

Dear Bob at Top show, tell Tom and Jess that I've had many motorcycles since I was 10 years old. This is Grant. And quite a few Harleys. We used to call a person who wore hari Harley paraphernalia but no Harley motorcycle a sidewalk biker. You asked that question? Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. So I don't think.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

I'm not in favor of people wearing certain stuff that they're not really associated with.

[Bob Kevoian]

So if you don't know who the band Nirvana is, you shouldn't be able to wear the T shirt.

[Shara Lashley]

And you're mad if I wear scrubs out just casually.

[Chick McGee]

I think the thing about that with a young lady is that it's so incredibly hot that it's okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

Really.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, really?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes. No kidding.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

I have never.

[Tom Griswold]

There's.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's.

[Tom Griswold]

There is something there.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, is there? So it's a common.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, absolutely. Oh, yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, they're expensive, though. Scrubs aren't cheap. Or are they am.

[Shara Lashley]

I think they are.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They're not.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know, there's like a Scrubs and beyond is what.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. Exactly. They're proud of them.

[Chick McGee]

It's over near where you live, actually.

[Tom Griswold]

But I know they're not cheap.

[Chick McGee]

Don't. Do ladies find, like a guy in scrubs kind of hot?

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, I guess.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, most uniforms are kind of sexy, you know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wouldn't it be easiest to masquerade as a doctor?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Just go get a stethoscope and subscribe.

[Tom Griswold]

I Do it every other Sunday. You can come with me. It's a very effective. There are two white coats.

[Chick McGee]

Now, remember, Josh has the one thing he does called garaging, where you just. You just break into someone's garage. Well, the door has to be open.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, the door has to be open.

[Tom Griswold]

Right?

[Chick McGee]

You go and steal the beer from the garage fridge. Right, but do you have a name for it when you dress up as a. As a physician?

[Tom Griswold]

Healing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

You want to go healing with me?

[Chick McGee]

I think you're a big hypocrite.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't take the oath, so I'm not.

[Bob Kevoian]

We're talking about posters. What posters you had on the wall when you were.

[Chick McGee]

Well, let's ask our guest here, Shara. Did you have posters in your wall when you were in high school?

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah, sure. I had Jonathan Taylor Thomas poster.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, jtt, baby.

[Shara Lashley]

And I actually got to see him in a grocery store right after I moved to Los Angeles.

[Chick McGee]

Did you say something?

[Shara Lashley]

No, I got. I turned bright red.

[Tom Griswold]

And then you put money in his hat.

[Chick McGee]

Times are tough, huh? Cancel the show and all of a sudden the money stops coming in. Anybody else on your walls?

[Shara Lashley]

I think I had like a TLC poster. Maybe Aaliyah or something.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no. Boy bands.

[Bob Kevoian]

TLC.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah. No, probably not, I don't think.

[Bob Kevoian]

Maybe NSync, but I cannot pull a TLC song.

[Tom Griswold]

Scrubs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Scrubs? Yeah. I don't want no scrubs.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, a scrub is a guy who can't get no love, no love for me Hanging out the passenger side of.

[Shara Lashley]

His best friend's ride trying to holler it.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a second.

[Bob Kevoian]

What's that?

[Chick McGee]

What just happened? We have some kind of weird connection.

[Bob Kevoian]

Subscribed. Dear Bob at Top Show. My favorite poster while I was growing up. If you look at the video screens and you people at home use your radio. I had the Lang ski equipment poster and the pack. The caption was keep those tips up in my room.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yes. Yeah, that's a skier's mom allow that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Not sure how my mom allowed it.

[Chick McGee]

And we should explain. It's a beautiful young woman wearing a one piece yellow ski suit. And she's appears to be up in the air flying, doing a ski jump. Her skis parallel her.

[Tom Griswold]

He's looking at the skis. Her boobs are out.

[Chick McGee]

Well, she's wearing laying boots, I assume. Nice ski boots, high buckles.

Yeah. So you know, but if you criticism, we're zooming in.

[Tom Griswold]

Those aren't. Those aren't real.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't mean they're not. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't mean fake breasts. I mean they're not real.

They're airbrushed.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

And they've airbrushed it. So the nipples are gone.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, but they. They've airbrushed the nipples out.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you don't know. Maybe.

[Chick McGee]

Well, look, do you see nipples?

[Bob Kevoian]

No, but some women have those nipples.

[Chick McGee]

Are they on the side?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. All walleyed? Yeah. Some girls have that.

Oh, no. You were familiar with. Oh, absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Never seen that either.

[Bob Kevoian]

Never seen it.

[Chick McGee]

The one, the. Now that's a whole different category. Certain posters. Excuse me. Certain ads from magazines were made into posters because they were so great. The most. The one we talked about for the Maxell ad. Oh, yeah, for Maxell cassettes. And it showed the kids sitting in a chair and he was playing his stereo on him. And it was obviously the wind is blowing at him, the sound is so great. That was also a poster and a pretty good one. We have a number of other letters to get to. We have some sporting news to get to. We got a lot of bird news, including one ending in death. We'll get to that coming up shortly. Do you want to tell me what's coming up in the world of Sports?

[Bob Kevoian]

We had two Monday Night Football games last night. Denver wins 28 3. Miami over the Jets 27. 20, 21. And Tyreek Hill still in the hospital. Suffered a dislocated left knee. It could certainly his season if not his career ending injury last night. Major league baseball playoffs start today. We'll have all the details.

[Chick McGee]

We asked the question off the air just a few minutes ago. If you have a thousand dollars in cash, can you fit all the pumpkins into a car? I think you need a truck.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You're gonna want to.

[Bob Kevoian]

I want to say there was a. A time when the kids were small and I was just new to the weekend dad thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I paid like $35 for one pumpkin. Pumpkin. I swear you can. I swear that was the price point.

[Tom Griswold]

You can do it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because the kids wanted a pumpkin and that's what they charged. So I paid. That's what I paid. Where were you?

[Chick McGee]

Where were you? At Nordstrom? No, they were be dazzled.

[Bob Kevoian]

We were driving. We were driving past the church and that's. They had pumpkins out and selling pumpkins.

[Chick McGee]

The Church of the Holy Fleecing.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Fleecing would be much more biblical.

[Tom Griswold]

Our lady of the Flim flag was bamboozled.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I. Over.

[Bob Kevoian]

Over the weekend.

[Chick McGee]

Over the weekend, I went to the hardware store. As you're walking in there, the guy selling the popcorn.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah, Selling the popcorn.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

At the hardware store. Yeah. But away selling.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it's the Boy Scouts. Whatever.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, have. Have you just been.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, no, my hardware store. Well, my.

[Chick McGee]

I just make. I just make a donation.

[Bob Kevoian]

You used to have a hard. Used to have a popcorn machine. You go in and you grab your. Your corn and you shop and you take a walk around.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, that's great. Yeah, I love that. That place.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm all for the Boy Scouts, sure. But folks. Yeah, that popcorn.

[Chick McGee]

I literally.

[Tom Griswold]

The margins are insane.

[Chick McGee]

I just give them the money. Here's some cash. I don't need your popcorn.

[Bob Kevoian]

There is a. There is a part on Shark Tank every time where they go, now what? Well, we have this made for $8, and we sell it for 39.95. Well, the popcorn is $0.02, and they sell it for $189. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Now, when you're at home, we were talking about popcorn because you worked at a movie theater.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Home popcorn.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What is your go to?

[Tom Griswold]

I. I'm a mic. I would if I were to. Boy, I don't do it. I. That's the whole thing. I don't do it. But I would get microwave bags. Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Because it. I used to love the Jiffy Pop.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that.

[Chick McGee]

That was where you put it on the pan. You can say. And then. And then the aluminum foil thing expands and makes this beautiful globe.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, we never had that. We had a popcorn popper. We had a Couple versions of that.

[Chick McGee]

Or like the real thing where that spins with them.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it was a countertop deal.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. Mine. Mine is Wabash. Wabash Valley Farms. Whirly Pops. Sweet and easy snack machine is what mine is.

[Tom Griswold]

Yours actually looks like an old timey popcorn machine, doesn't it?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I had one of those.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

You put that on the stovetop with kernels and you crank the top of it. Yeah. Spin it. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's cool.

[Bob Kevoian]

Makes great popcorn.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice incredible popcorn.

[Chick McGee]

Now, are you. You can't eat popcorn anymore, is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

I've started to, very hesitantly. I was diagnosed with the diverticulosis, and they used. They used to say, hey, popcorn can cause diverticulitis, which is when it gets infected and stuff and inflamed. So I. But now that's all been debunked. So I have reintroduced nuts. I've reintroduced.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, Nuts.

[Tom Griswold]

And no. No issues with those.

[Chick McGee]

I'd like you to meet. I'd like you to meet nuts, Mr. Peanut.

[Tom Griswold]

And I've had no issues with those until recently. I've been. I had, you know, a handful of popcorn here and there, like out of the bags that we have here in the green room. And no issues. So.

[Bob Kevoian]

But there.

[Chick McGee]

But there is something about the joy that popcorn brings at a movie theater.

[Tom Griswold]

Love it.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think we have an actual. If you want to bring that in, I think we have an actual Jiffy Pop from your childhood, Tom. An actual. What do they call an apparatus that Jiffy Pop came in. You just put it on the stove like a roster.

[Chick McGee]

It looks like a little tiny frying pan.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And then they always end up looking like those metal things on top of roofs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

By the airport. They look like the things the radar's in at the air airport.

[Bob Kevoian]

Remember Jiffy Pop's slogan? As much fun to make as it is to eat? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It's cool.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm a set it and forget it guy. I don't want to have to do that.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah, it kind of scares me. Like, it's going to blow up or start on fire.

[Chick McGee]

But now, remember this new story about the guy that took his microwave popcorn out of the microwave and kind of huffed it?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

And burned the inside of his mouth.

[Tom Griswold]

Poor bastard.

[Chick McGee]

Doesn't that qualify you to be an idiot?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think you expect that that would do real damage. I mean, I burned my hand. What do you mean?

[Shara Lashley]

He huffed it. Like, he took the opening of the bag and like.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

Why?

[Chick McGee]

I mean, he.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't want to get sued but probably a smell.

[Shara Lashley]

Smell good, but like, bringing it into your mouth is supposed to, because I.

[Chick McGee]

Recall he burned the inside of his mouth.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. That's brutal.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, that's why they have the big now there's letters all over them.

[Tom Griswold]

Please don't huff.

[Chick McGee]

If you want a good laugh, go look at a ladder at the hardware store. They can barely fit all the legal disclaimers on it. Do not put this on piles of Jell O while on top of large buildings. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this a new Yo Mama so fat joke? Yo mama so fat she hyperventilates into a Pop secret bag.

[Bob Kevoian]

Does that work?

[Chick McGee]

It's a lengthy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Totally worked. Is it? No, it's not.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, I thought it was pretty.

[Bob Kevoian]

Your mama's so fat, when she sits around the house. She sits around the house. That's not.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the same way your mama's so fat it took Nationwide three years to get on her side.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

She's a fat lady. This one is a large one.

[Bob Kevoian]

What's the heaviest woman you ever dated? I'll, I'll wait for your answer. 12 stone.

[Chick McGee]

I don't, I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

I, I, I don't see you dating anyone over 110. 115. You like them rail thin and have the ass of a house cat. I know you do.

[Chick McGee]

And yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Okay. All right.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. Wow.

[Bob Kevoian]

That could be the most guy thing I've ever said. You like them?

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom show and this theme. I'm enjoying this. I know Joshua hate when this is from Tamara. You were talking about your girls wearing Nirvana T shirts and. Yeah, my daughter's 9 and 12 and how kids these days are wearing band. They have no clue who these bands are. I just don't get it. I kind of get it because they're great logos and they're cool. And I think the Nirvana one is. We just found out that's the most prominent T shirt of its kind out there right now. I was in the store with my teenager, writes Tamara. She was begging me to buy her an Aerosmith T shirt. I said, you don't even know who that is. She said, yes, I do. I love them. I said, can you name one song? Then I'll buy it. She goes, mind you, I consider this an easy win for her since I have brought up this artist with her in the past, especially watching Mr. Doubtfire and Armageddon movies she loves. Needless to say, I didn't have to buy the shirt. She had no clue.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow.

[Chick McGee]

But see, that's Aerosmith. That's a cool logo.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that is a great one.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think that's.

[Chick McGee]

We're kind of forgetting that a lot of those shirts are cool.

[Bob Kevoian]

I can't remember the Aerosmith logo.

[Chick McGee]

It's like Wings.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You'd reckon it'd come back to you.

[Shara Lashley]

I think it's cool to have something obscure like that's the feeling is like. Yeah, the logo might be cool, but it's also just this, like, it's cool to have a shirt that nobody might know of or, you know, I feel like that's the vibe where we all.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course, we all know it. We know Nirvana, we know Aerosmith.

[Shara Lashley]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, the young kids don't necessarily.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. But yeah, I think it is kind of cool to have stuff that no one knows what it is.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Unless you know.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You know, it's like having a watch that no one knows. Oh, that's really a cool watch. As opposed to having a Rolex where everyone knows what it is.

[Shara Lashley]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

But if you have a Shinola, I'm already impressed. No, Shinola is a watch company based in Detroit. Right. And really, they regret sending you this email so much. Well, no, it's true. They do. You know what shinola is? And you ever heard the phrase you don't know s word from shinola?

[Shara Lashley]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

It's okay that you have it. It's very old school.

[Chick McGee]

Any many out there right now? There's guy driving a truck going, come on.

[Shara Lashley]

Sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

They're older because.

[Chick McGee]

Because shinola was, I believe, a form of shoe polish that looked much like deficant. Ergo, you don't know the aforementioned S word from shinola meant. Boy, that'd be a bad choice to polish your shoes with fecal material. Hey, Josh, you're cordovans look nice, but they sure stink.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I got a dog.

[Chick McGee]

In any event, as I understand the story, the Shinola company bought the name and they make really nice watches.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. And they're very cool and they bags and other things.

[Chick McGee]

They even make a Petoskey Stone watch. But I'm not going to get that obscure on you. What we're going to do is we're going to move over to the sports page. Oh, I just want to say a quick hello to Ian in South Carolina. Ian, I'm glad you're doing so well. Thanks for listening. We really appreciate it. And you're doing great.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hello, Ian.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, Ian.

[Bob Kevoian]

Thank you very NFL Last night, Denver over Cincinnati 28 to 3. Of course, the Bengals without Joe Burrow for the rest of the season. And the Dolphins over the jets last night. New York jets continue to look for some answers. Dolphins went 27, 21. And in that game, Miami wide receiver Tyree Kill dislocated his left knee. Pretty gruesome. They've tried to take all the videos down on the Internet. Hurt. He made a catch, but. And he did complete the catch. Planted with his left foot. And you know how your knee goes back and forth? You bend it back and forth.

[Chick McGee]

Only that way.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Front to back. Well, his went to the side. Oh. Almost touching his side of his head. Major league.

[Chick McGee]

By the way, that reminds me of a nice letter.

[Bob Kevoian]

It reminded you of a nice letter? Go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

Well, the. I. I have to dig it up. It involves.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, you don't even have the letter. And you interrupted me.

[Chick McGee]

I. We were talking yesterday about the fact that your mother chewed her toenails.

[Bob Kevoian]

You were talking about that.

[Drew Powell]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Shara, can you touch your face with your foot?

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You can?

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm oddly flexible. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

God, I don't believe.

[Shara Lashley]

But I would never chew my tone in.

[Tom Griswold]

We should all be able to do it technically. Well, you know, you're meant to be so well stretched.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And well, your mobility is supposed to be of a level where you can do that. I can't get.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, man, you're close. Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

I bet if you did, like, five minutes of stretching, you'd be able to do it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. If I go make some popcorn and get a lawn chair and sit in front of you, can I watch you try to do that? I would like, put some scrubs on for me.

[Shara Lashley]

Get some butter out. You can use that to help.

[Bob Kevoian]

Go, Joshi. Oh, you almost got it that time. Well, we.

[Chick McGee]

I had a nice letter somewhere. I'll dig it up. About sticking your foot in your mouth. I'm sorry. I just put my foot in my mouth. Let's move on.

[Tom Griswold]

That's got to be one of the more popular things on Only Fans or something. A woman licking her own foot.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

You get the foot fetish. You get a woman. Yeah. Flexibility, oral something. You know what I mean?

[Chick McGee]

Scrubs and Scrubs to get the other fans.

[Tom Griswold]

I guarantee there's like a. Probably Scrubs Mama or whatever on Only.

[Chick McGee]

Fans and it wasn't one of the number one Halloween costumes. People dressed in various medical uniforms and.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, really Sexy. Oh, like sexy. Yeah, yeah, sure, sure.

[Chick McGee]

Because they've. That's the whole. They've sexy pretty much everything.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

They try to. They try to sex.

[Shara Lashley]

It I like to go as sexy inanimate objects. Like sexy toaster, sexy washing machine.

[Chick McGee]

What does a sexy toaster look like?

[Shara Lashley]

It's just a. To a box and then, you know. What was the sun? Suntime. Sunbeam.

[Chick McGee]

Sunbeam.

[Shara Lashley]

Sunbeam. Sunbeam. I've got two slots.

[Chick McGee]

Ah, okay. Who wants to take that? We're auctioning off this setup.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't really know. I don't know how litigious she is.

[Chick McGee]

The plaintiff suggested she had two slots. We're auctioning off this setup. We're not allowing it. Okay, I'm sorry. Wait a minute. The bailiff over. We're done.

[Tom Griswold]

Christina won't sue us because she knows we have nothing she wants at all.

[Bob Kevoian]

The only time people watch commercials is during live sporting events. Match. Yeah, there. There you go. Bruce Boi will not be returning as manager of the Texas Rangers. I'm not coming back as a three year stand. Actually, we have Bruce and his comments. Yeah, I got, I got the big Ziggy. I got. Got fired by the, by the Texas Rangers.

I don't know who the hell you think you're with. 70 damn year years old. I don't need this. Texas Rangers Kiss my. Hey. Anyway, there.

[Tom Griswold]

You did get mad, didn't he? A couple of those could have been longer.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Forget about speaking of lawsuits. The beep. That was more of a. More, more of a EEP than a beep. We needed a little more. A little more back there in the room.

[Bob Kevoian]

It. Love it.

[Chick McGee]

Today's some sheer trivia. One of Bruce. Bruce's best friends.

Amazing book. That's a wonderful book. Read it.

You cannot do that.

Want to share a letter or comment?

[Drew Powell]

Our email is bob and tomobandtom.com.

[Chick McGee]

And then.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. At the SILAC Insurance news desk is Cheryl Asli.

[Shara Lashley]

Good morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Chick.

[Bob Kevoian]

Josh Arnold Right here. Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. Hello, Tom. How are you?

[Chick McGee]

I'm doing fine. I just got lectured by Ms. Hooker.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Where'd she go? She was supposed to be.

[Chick McGee]

I have a bad habit sometimes. I'll order things for the station online and maybe. Maybe order too many.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that is Cups.

[Chick McGee]

I did it to myself the other day at home. Big package arrives and I wasn't sure what it was. I opened it up and this. I blame Chick for this. I ordered a couple pairs of shoelaces online. I now have about a hundred pair of black shoelaces.

[Bob Kevoian]

That seems about. How did this happen?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. I must have hit the wrong button.

[Greg Warren]

Yes, you must have.

[Chick McGee]

I ordered some special shoelaces and I got like a hundred. It's a huge box. I've got to return it. I don't know what I'm going to do with all these shoes, you know?

[Bob Kevoian]

And I. I returned something the other day. I was so proud of myself.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because I never return it.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm just like, ah, well, I just, you know, eat it or whatever. It's my own fault.

[Tom Griswold]

For a while there, Amazon was saying, hey, look, we'll just give you your money back, but don't return it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Don'T. They bury the stuff anyway, they were.

[Tom Griswold]

Essentially like, it costs us more money to process it when it comes back in. We. And then we don't know what to do with it.

[Bob Kevoian]

All you got to do is dump it off of ups.

[Tom Griswold]

And there it really is.

[Chick McGee]

Well, there was an incident. I ordered too many. What? Spoons.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then, you know, how many you want.

[Chick McGee]

You want to know how many boxes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Of spoons we have right now? I'm going to say, and these are.

[Tom Griswold]

Spoons he doesn't use.

[Shara Lashley]

These are ones he's decided he doesn't like.

[Bob Kevoian]

He doesn't want them.

[Shara Lashley]

And we just have them.

[Chick McGee]

I've rejected them. 14.

[Bob Kevoian]

Boxes. And how many are in a box, do you know right off top?

[Shara Lashley]

100 to 200.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I finally found one I like. See, I eat cereal when I come in in the morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

Finally found one that I like.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, yeah, that's a deep, wide.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's a. That's like a chowder spoon there. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Perfect for cereal. I don't like those. Crappy.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's a reason.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's no good.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I've settled on that one. But I forgot which ones they were so high. And.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, man, that's plastic. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

This is biodegradable.

[Bob Kevoian]

It is. It is.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Biodegradable.

[Bob Kevoian]

Slip that in on it.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm really proud of them.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And then. So are these things. These are biodegradable cereal bowls.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I. I'm sure.

[Shara Lashley]

Well, I came in here to tell.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, they're not.

[Shara Lashley]

I came in here to tell him.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, don't buy coffee cups.

[Shara Lashley]

I just bought three cases of coffee cups. And we buy regular coffee cups.

[Bob Kevoian]

We buy the recyclable ones, and then we buy Styrofoam.

[Tom Griswold]

So we cover everything wrong with a mug. You guys don't like a coffee mug?

[Chick McGee]

Filthy mug. There was an article.

[Bob Kevoian]

Filthy.

[Chick McGee]

I'll try to dig it up.

[Bob Kevoian]

There was an article an inch deep in E. Coli.

[Chick McGee]

One of those. Yeah, one of those TV shows did a thing and they tested coffee cups at various offices in the United States of America. And the filthiest ones were radio and TV stations.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's because they're animals that work in radio and tv.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

But not me.

[Bob Kevoian]

We're self evident. We wash our cups. Yes, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you just wash your own cup.

[Chick McGee]

But I did demand. And they put in a dishwasher in our green room.

[Shara Lashley]

We did.

[Bob Kevoian]

And that's where we wash all our cups.

[Drew Powell]

They're all clean.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but yes. What do you mean demand?

[Chick McGee]

You're the boss. You talking to yourself. That's right.

[Bob Kevoian]

My favorite thing is he'll be in here complaining about something. I don't know why, but I don't understand how that. And I go, yeah, if only we could get a hold of the guy who makes the decision. And then. Yeah, not.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. So I honestly don't know how I have 100 pairs of shoelaces. I think I'll just bring them in here.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you order from the place that I told you to?

[Chick McGee]

And I ordered, I ordered because I, I've got these. Remember those boots I had last winter that you guys all love?

[Tom Griswold]

All the boots that are made for walking.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I know. I think you're, we all commented on them, but I don't think you could call it love.

[Tom Griswold]

You haven't worn them since.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, I wear them all the time.

[Tom Griswold]

We were really proud of you for getting out of your comfort zone.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, exactly.

[Chick McGee]

The Ross and all the French ski company. Well, I found, I found stamp leap.

[Bob Kevoian]

To mind and kinky boots.

[Chick McGee]

I, I, I found another pair of them, but black. But I needed some colorful laces for them. So I ordered and now I've got like 100 plus pairs of black shoelaces.

[Shara Lashley]

What did you do this with the other day?

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, teabags.

[Tom Griswold]

We kept getting boxes every day for nine days straight. We got a box for Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

What is wrong with you? It was full of tea bags.

[Chick McGee]

I, I must have hit the wrong button.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought I was, I, I started to be a hoarder. Not by my. But the subscribe and save. You're like, I'm up to my armpits and toilet paper.

[Tom Griswold]

Are there two accountants at a table right now looking at all these expenses going, well, do we kill him or Ourselves. This has to end.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, there's a box here. Oh, it's paper towels. Oh. And more and more toilet paper. Thank goodness for that.

[Chick McGee]

And I inadvertently got the paper towels where you get the full sheet instead of the half sheet.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's hard to do because almost.

[Chick McGee]

All of them are the half sheet. That is hard to save a tree. I've also got a couple dozen of those.

[Tom Griswold]

You have a really inflated sense of your environmental heroics. I don't even notice.

[Chick McGee]

I have an inflated sense of everything.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, that's true.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, okay. Coming up, we're going to hang out with our friend. We got a bunch of them coming in. We got Drew Powell, Gastakia Kopos, who's going to gloat about his Atlanta Falcons.

[Bob Kevoian]

Shut up.

[Chick McGee]

And his forthcoming trip to Berlin. We have Berlin news kind of coming.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's going to be the band who.

[Tom Griswold]

Did take my breath away.

[Chick McGee]

No. You ever heard the Lou Reed song Berlin? I have an overlooked classic.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I. I do.

[Bob Kevoian]

Like, looked at just enough.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. But right now, are we gonna go back to the sports page?

[Bob Kevoian]

We have one more. Ladies and gentlemen, stupid world record.

[Tom Griswold]

But you like this one, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

I do. A Michigan man, other than that part, has broken the Guinness World record for the longest custom banana car.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's fun, huh?

[Chick McGee]

And you gotta see the thing. It's brilliant. It's. To describe it, it looks like a giant banana.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course, I saw a video of it peeling out than much.

[Bob Kevoian]

There it is.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I. I have to write it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Here's the thing about it.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's amazing.

[Chick McGee]

The guy sits in the front, and.

[Bob Kevoian]

That'S even cooler than I could imagine.

[Chick McGee]

And then behind him, there are three seats, but one at a time. It's kind of like a roller coaster. Exactly.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah. It looks like when you ride on the ocean, you know what I mean?

[Chick McGee]

Those big bananas boats. Yeah. It's so cool. And it's street legal, so we got to get the guy here.

[Tom Griswold]

How, how, how, how that street legal?

[Bob Kevoian]

How is that street legal?

[Chick McGee]

It has. Yeah, it's got all the lights and stuff. If you. The other shot I saw, but you could see the lights and stuff in front, but the guy was driving it around Manhattan, so you can imagine.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, my.

[Chick McGee]

The stairs.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I thought that was the Big Apple.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, oh, hey. Very good.

[Bob Kevoian]

One more time.

[Chick McGee]

The banana guy just split.

[Bob Kevoian]

Thank you. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

By the way, that's the license plate. Well, at least the vanity plate says split.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it does. All right.

[Bob Kevoian]

He's not causing any traffic problems driving it in Manhattan. No, he's thoughtful.

[Chick McGee]

He's bringing a little joy to people.

[Bob Kevoian]

Steve Braithwaite achieved the record title with his hand built banana vehicle. Measuring 22ft, 10 and a half inches long.

[Tom Griswold]

It's awesome.

[Bob Kevoian]

The banana car is built on a strip 1993 Ford F150 chassis. It's powered by a V8, can reach up to 85 miles an hour.

[Chick McGee]

You're. You're. The attitude. You're projecting with your dumb voice.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is cool.

[Tom Griswold]

Chick said he likes it.

[Bob Kevoian]

I like. Carries three passengers in line behind the driver.

[Chick McGee]

Who's this?

[Bob Kevoian]

This it's car. Enthusiastic? Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

Sounded like Harry Carey.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh. He estimates the project cost about 25. $25,000.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, well, I did the math on that. That's 166,000 bananas at correct current prices.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa, boy, that's a. What an insane calculation. Take the time.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you have a banana, by the way, when you.

[Chick McGee]

By the way, when he bought the banana car.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

It was green when he took it out of the showroom.

[Tom Griswold]

It's not always the way.

[Chick McGee]

By the time he got perfect yellow spots on it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Let it sit outside and then.

[Tom Griswold]

You like cutting up a banana into your cereal?

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's always nice.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I've got a banana in a cereal.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, it's terrific.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, it's so good for me.

[Chick McGee]

Banana, very short window.

[Bob Kevoian]

Never done.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay, you want it.

[Chick McGee]

And then. Yeah, yesterday I was about to throw some out and Kelly goes, no, because she uses them in banana bread.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, sure, sure.

[Chick McGee]

But, yeah, that got a very short window. They can't be too soft, my brother.

[Tom Griswold]

Like my family growing up, it was always good because I liked a certain window. My oldest brother wants them black and. Yeah. So. So if they went too far. Oh, here comes old Jeffy.

[Chick McGee]

And the science of getting the. I know, I've said the science of getting the Cavendish banana from. From where it's grown to the United States of America where it hits the shelves and becomes ripe. Amazing. Miraculous.

[Tom Griswold]

Sometimes you go in the grocery store and they're all so green. Go. You don't have two that are yellow.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. You can put them in a paper bag overnight and they'll be ready. No. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Can you imagine the difficulty of getting. Getting bananas from whatever. Where do they grow?

[Bob Kevoian]

Perfect.

[Chick McGee]

It's brilliant.

[Tom Griswold]

Florida now. They still, they still got work. Do they grow them here, Jess, in the States?

[Bob Kevoian]

No, not.

[Chick McGee]

Not that I think.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, I don't. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

No, they got them. They put them, of course, on the banana boats and then they bring Them here. It's miraculous. It's great. Coming up, we have.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why can't we have fake bananas? Where are those?

[Shara Lashley]

What we eat is fake bananas. That's our fan.

[Tom Griswold]

They grow bananas in the U. You've never had a nice South Dakota banana.

[Chick McGee]

The Idaho bananas, often mistaken for potatoes.

[Shara Lashley]

Potatoes.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Shara Lashley]

Like, a real banana, is actually very small.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Yeah. These are almost microscopic.

[Chick McGee]

This is. This is the famous Cavendish banana, which is. There's a whole DNA thing about these. And they were all dying off.

[Bob Kevoian]

But this can't be interesting to anybody. No.

[Chick McGee]

If I Google the Cavendish banana history, it's fascinating.

[Bob Kevoian]

Have you ever had a banana flip? It's a little pastry. Hostess makes it, I think. Hostess.

[Tom Griswold]

They're pretty good, man.

[Chick McGee]

But I will. I will say this. One of the great disappointments in my life was the first time I had a banana split.

[Shara Lashley]

You're wrong.

[Chick McGee]

Not good.

[Shara Lashley]

I agree with you.

[Bob Kevoian]

The pineapple.

[Chick McGee]

The pineapple.

[Bob Kevoian]

I like that. Yeah, I love pineapple.

[Tom Griswold]

Even on your banana split.

[Bob Kevoian]

100. Double pineapple. No strawberry. Double pineapple. Get strawberry out of here.

[Chick McGee]

No strawberries.

[Bob Kevoian]

No. Really?

[Chick McGee]

Well, you must have something else to go do.

[Tom Griswold]

That reminds me, those. Nevada.

[Chick McGee]

We're coming right back. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Bob Kevoian]

More of the show is on the way.

[Chick McGee]

You can find us on X at Bob and Tom or you can email.

[Drew Powell]

Us at Bob and tom bob and tom.com.

[Chick McGee]

Center.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. At the SILAC Insurance news desk, it's Sarah Lassley.

[Shara Lashley]

Good morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello, Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi, there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. We're in the o'reilly Auto Parts studio. Hello, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, Chick mcgee.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, sir.

[Chick McGee]

We're gonna grab, I think, our satellite link up here to Los Angeles, California. We have comedian Kostaki Economopoulos joining us. Kostaki, originally from Atlanta, is a Falcon fan, and I. I suppose you want to congratulate your team for beating Chick's team, the hapless Washington. Hapless. What do they. What do they call them again?

[Bob Kevoian]

Washington football team. In this room.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Okay. Very good. Hey, Kostaki, how are you?

[Tom Griswold]

Good morning. Guys, they're missing their two best players. It's not even.

[Drew Powell]

I don't know. I got mixed feelings about it, but I'll take it.

[Tom Griswold]

Send me a basket of red tape, Chick.

[Bob Kevoian]

Done, done and done. Although Washington beat him last year and we got in the playoffs because that win and. Yeah, right.

[Tom Griswold]

So we were all right much Better team.

[Drew Powell]

I think my team is just trying to suck me back in.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, they look. They certainly have a better defense.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, my team likes to drop the ball right near the. Right near the end zone.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Just about to score.

[Bob Kevoian]

Nah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What the hell?

[Bob Kevoian]

You forgot the ball for the second time.

[Chick McGee]

For the second time in a year.

[Bob Kevoian]

The second time? No, Jonathan Taylor did it last year.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Unbelievable. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's.

[Drew Powell]

That's dumb.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the dumbest play and the dumbest rule all in the same moment, right? The ball goes out of the end zone, you lose the ball.

[Bob Kevoian]

Kind of crazy. Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

They never had possession.

[Drew Powell]

That rule makes no sense.

[Bob Kevoian]

Does it still? I don't know. I, I, it used to go out to the 20, so I, I don't know if that's still the rule or not, but I didn't watch the end of that play.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. What a disaster.

[Tom Griswold]

You lose the ball.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. But at least we don't have.

[Tom Griswold]

We're not rooting for jets and Dolphins. That's, that's even worse.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Last night, the 03 Dolphins beat the 03 Jets. The jets now have lost 10 straight games in Miami. That's astounding, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

I had the same reaction. I was like, I can't believe that's the stat. We know Miami is the point in the Bermuda Triangle. That's bad for Jets. I watched some specials.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Homemade rafts have a better record in Miami. Tyreek's condoms have a better record.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Poor Tyreek. All the best to him.

[Drew Powell]

News broke this morning he tore his ACL last night.

[Tom Griswold]

Other ligaments.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

When he got to the locker room, he started calling his kids. And he's still on the phone.

[Chick McGee]

Densely populated, you see.

[Bob Kevoian]

Gosh, a lot of kids.

[Tom Griswold]

Jets, Jets, Dolphins was a division game. It divided the audience into those who are annoyed and those who don't care.

[Bob Kevoian]

Division.

[Tom Griswold]

Sunday night, we had Cowboys, Packers.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hell of a game.

[Tom Griswold]

Ended in a tie. It's like kissing your sister. I never had a sister. But how do you compare a mediocre moment to the gateway to incest?

[Greg Warren]

Weird.

[Tom Griswold]

Taylor Swift will not appear at the Super Bowl. See also the Dallas Cowboys.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh.

[Drew Powell]

This year, the super bowl halftime show.

[Tom Griswold]

Will feature Bad Bunny. And Monday night, Jets, Dolphins featured bed football.

[Drew Powell]

That's.

[Tom Griswold]

That's how it works.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Roger Goodell says there's some international markets that could support an NFL franchise. Possible spots include London and Mexico City. And someday they might even put a professional football team in Tennessee.

[Bob Kevoian]

Keep your fingers crossed.

[Tom Griswold]

The Titans shut out are 0 and 4. You know why they always say, remember the Titans?

[Drew Powell]

Because they're forgettable.

[Tom Griswold]

You got a little David Spade there with the they're forgettable.

[Bob Kevoian]

All you needed was. All you needed for that was a bye bye.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, Vikings got walloped in Dublin. Carson Wentz fit in well in Ireland. He's a redhead who falls down a lot.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's a good match, right?

[Tom Griswold]

While in Dublin, Steelers quarterback was jumped and robbed. Is this assault or just how the Irish watch their football?

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know. And did you see this story?

[Drew Powell]

This one's amazing to me.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, former Seahawks running back Sean Alexander, you remember him, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Sure. Yeah. Oh, absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

He announced his wife is pregnant with their 14th child. Wow.

[Bob Kevoian]

14, right.

[Tom Griswold]

He was a great running back. And he can still hit the hole, am I right? Oh, Kostaki, he parks on the street because he can't even pull out of the driveway. Even Philip Rivers is like, wtf? Get a hobby. Tom Griswold called him and said, try oral. A lot of kids, rabbits are stepping in.

[Bob Kevoian]

Take it easy, champ.

[Drew Powell]

Slow and steady.

[Tom Griswold]

Sean's total time in the NFL, nine years. Wife's total time pregnant, ten and a half years. Oh, 14 kids. It's not a uterus.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a clown car.

[Drew Powell]

We.

[Tom Griswold]

This is not even a legal playing football. You can't put 14 people in the box. That's too many people. Tooth fairy had to negotiate a group rate. A lot of children, I feel like at this point they should take a sex ed class. Oh, it's because of the.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

No idea.

[Tom Griswold]

If we put it in here. Not as.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, let's try that.

[Tom Griswold]

How do you parent bedtime with 14 kids? Well, it's not man on man. I could tell you that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, you gotta.

[Drew Powell]

You gotta play zone.

[Tom Griswold]

A lot of last minute glasses of water. Your only hope is cover zero. Bring everybody and hope for the best. For the birth announcements, they don't send little cute cards anymore. It's just a depth chart. This is 14 kids. The oldest is driving, the youngest is in the womb, and the rest are trying to figure out who pooped on the dog. That's a lot of kids.

[Chick McGee]

I didn't see that story.

[Tom Griswold]

He's a man of faith. He once met with Mother Teresa, knocked her up. Oh, man. The man can't help himself. You see?

[Bob Kevoian]

He can't.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a lot of. This reminds me, this is a true story. I don't know if you remember ever seeing this clip. There was a clip of Groucho Marx. He's got a woman on the show, had eight or nine kids. And he said, I like a good cigar, but I take it out once in a while. He said that on live television in the 50s. A lot of controversy about the conflict of interest for Tom Brady, who's now a commentator and part owner of the Raiders. What about earlier in his career? What about that conflict when he was a player and he completely owned the Bills, Dolphins and Jets?

[Chick McGee]

Very good.

[Tom Griswold]

What about nobody mentions that he was. He was a part owner.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we get it. Very good. I mean, how many kids did he have?

[Tom Griswold]

All right, I think I'm done.

[Chick McGee]

Kostaki Economopoulos, ladies and gentlemen. Gentlemen, thank you. Now, if people want to participate in the frivolity, how do they do that?

[Tom Griswold]

Kostaki, come join us, whatever your favorite social media platform is at all. Pro lines and follow me too.

[Drew Powell]

I'm a separate thing.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm at Kostaki Economopoulos. You get close, it'll fill in.

[Chick McGee]

You just get the Kostaki out there, it'll pop up. Yeah, you're good. C O S T A K I thank you very much, Kostaki. Great stuff.

Greg is going to be at Dr. Grins Comedy Club at the Bob Nice in Grand Rapids, Michigan, coming up Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and on Sunday, he's gonna be at Comedy on State in Madison, Wisconsin. That'll be great.

Awesome.

[Chick McGee]

Then a lot of other gigs. I'll get those coming up in a second. Hey, Greg. How are you?

[Bob Kevoian]

Good.

[Greg Warren]

How you guys doing?

[Tom Griswold]

Good, man. Good to see you.

[Greg Warren]

Good to see you guys.

[Tom Griswold]

I like your Goo Goo hat.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Does anybody remember the Goo Goo treat? The candy clusters, Right? Clusters. Yeah, absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

Absolutely.

[Greg Warren]

No, that's what it. That's what the hat is, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I know. I was asking people in this room if they.

[Chick McGee]

I'm not familiar with. I know the great band the Goo Goo Dolls. I'm a huge fan of that band. But the Goog. I'm not aware of the Goo Goo Cluster.

[Bob Kevoian]

But you're not. He's not wearing an actual Goo Goo Cluster. Josh, it's a hat.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You're good.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, Josh is just. It's just a hat that says Goo Goo Cluster.

[Tom Griswold]

Hang up on this fellow.

[Chick McGee]

Was this one. Was this a product that you sold when you were a salesman?

[Greg Warren]

No, no. I admire the product, but.

[Bob Kevoian]

You admire it?

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. We didn't have. We didn't spend a lot of our money on little tchotchkes and garbage like this. We put it into the product.

[Chick McGee]

I see. Now, what is our topic for today?

[Greg Warren]

Tom? I thought it was time we talked about leopards.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, they have colonies and a lot of times their arms fall off and their hands.

[Bob Kevoian]

Leopard. L, E, O, P, A, R, D, S. Yes, Leopards.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, Josh. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Bob Kevoian]

Not lepers, fortunately.

[Chick McGee]

Fortunately, it's leopards.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh. Oh.

[Greg Warren]

Mother Teresa did not do a lot of work with these large cats.

[Chick McGee]

That would have been funny. Wouldn't that have been funny? And a lady in a nun suit. In the middle of the Barnum and Bailey Circus with a whip and go with God.

[Greg Warren]

You guys know what the leopard spots are called?

[Bob Kevoian]

Called?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Bob Kevoian]

Pips.

[Greg Warren]

No. Good guess, though.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, now, pips are the holes and dice.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right? Right. Dominoes. Oh, and dice maybe, too. I'm not sure.

[Chick McGee]

What are the spots on leopards called?

[Greg Warren]

They're called rosettes.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, no kidding.

[Bob Kevoian]

And are they as distinctive as our fingerprints to each leopard?

[Greg Warren]

Man, I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

That.

[Greg Warren]

That's a really good question. Yeah, they, you know, they look sort of rose. Like. Like Rosette had a couple of hits back in the 90s.

[Bob Kevoian]

Rock set got the look that was.

[Chick McGee]

The Goo Goo Dolls.

[Greg Warren]

Must have been love.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, boy.

[Greg Warren]

Did you guys know that Rock said is the name of the band, not the name of that woman?

[Tom Griswold]

That's right. That is right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, you thought her name was a short long for Roxy, right?

[Tom Griswold]

I thought that.

[Greg Warren]

That her name was Roxette. That her name is Marie Frederickson. This is something I learned.

[Chick McGee]

Has she gone solo? Do I need to go get the.

[Greg Warren]

Well, I think she passed away, so.

[Chick McGee]

That'S about as solo as you can go.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

By myself.

[Tom Griswold]

I went to Radio City Music hall and I saw the Rockettes do rock set and they were all kicking to those songs.

[Bob Kevoian]

And weren't they doing. No, no, Nanette.

[Tom Griswold]

That was the night after Didn't Sting.

[Bob Kevoian]

Come out and do Roxanne then? Come on.

[Drew Powell]

That was okay.

[Chick McGee]

With an opening for Roxy Music. Okay, are we done with that?

[Tom Griswold]

And anywho, back to lepers.

[Greg Warren]

I kind of like where you're heading. Hit the d. They go 35 miles an hour or 36 miles an hour. I'm sorry. Which doesn't even put them in the top 20 animals.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa. Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

Up at the top, a lot of birds and fish.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I was going to say so. Land animals, though. I bet they're in the top 10 mammals.

[Greg Warren]

The number one is not the cheetah. The cheetah is number two. You know what the number one is?

[Bob Kevoian]

Is an animal. Is it the ostrich Is a bird considered an animal?

[Greg Warren]

No, mammal.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, mammal.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right, go ahead.

[Greg Warren]

The Mexican free tailed bat. Which? Man, that's got to make the cheetah angry.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, but that's flying.

[Chick McGee]

Not. That's not on the ground.

[Greg Warren]

If he was running, I would kill him. I kill him if he was running.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I think the peregrine falcon flies at like 150 miles an hour or something. But it's not a mammal. Yeah, right. Okay.

[Greg Warren]

No, no. Yeah. A lot a Lot of birds. A lot of. There's some fast fish too, guys. The swordfish.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, kids.

[Greg Warren]

Real fast.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, he's built for speed.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Greg Warren]

Streamlined, if you will.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. The. They have a varied diet. They. Basically anything. Relatively long, short gestation period, three months.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa.

[Greg Warren]

They make several noises like I just did. They. They may have a rasping cough like. Call that sounds like sawing wood.

[Tom Griswold]

Interesting, huh?

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. So some guy's like, hey, man, I heard you.

[Tom Griswold]

What.

[Greg Warren]

What's going on? Did. Did you. Oh, you're just actually sawing wood. Sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, you're making a. I see you're building a deck.

[Greg Warren]

He's like, I'm building a crib, man. Did you not hear about the short gestation period?

[Tom Griswold]

I gotta get going.

[Greg Warren]

Male leopards, not very involved in raising the babies.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah. Typical. Oh, yeah, I understand.

[Greg Warren]

They. They do take a lot of credit for the accomplishments of their children.

[Shara Lashley]

Also typical.

[Bob Kevoian]

So mother leopards are.

[Chick McGee]

Do we know how many they have in a litter?

[Bob Kevoian]

Single mother. Yeah, man.

[Greg Warren]

I think I. I read three is customary.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Because we just had a story about a guy who had a litter of kids. Who was that again? In the NFL? I forgot.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, Sean Alexander.

[Chick McGee]

Sean Alexander. What? He had 14 kids.

[Bob Kevoian]

14. Just had his 14th. Yeah, yeah. Well, Philip Rivers had like nine or something. Nine or ten.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. But then he stopped because the. The ref called roughing the snapper.

[Tom Griswold]

Snapper.

[Bob Kevoian]

I haven't heard it called snapper in a long. Not since I worked at the foundry and I heard it called snapper.

[Chick McGee]

Sorry.

[Greg Warren]

Felt like he was gonna try to get to that joke one way or the other.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah, he was. He was barreling toward it, wasn't he?

[Tom Griswold]

Frank, what made you do a deal?

[Bob Kevoian]

What?

[Greg Warren]

I said he was going to find a way to get there.

[Tom Griswold]

What made you do a deep dive on leopards? Are you a fan?

[Greg Warren]

Oh, yeah, I've always been a fan. I can't believe you don't know that. I love leopards.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I didn't know.

[Chick McGee]

Is there such a thing as a deaf leopard or is that just the name of the band?

[Greg Warren]

I know they spell it differently, but I would imagine. I mean, I'll tell you this, this I thought was fascinating. There are light skinned leopards with the. Where you can see the spots, of course. And then there are also black leopards that still have the spots. You just can't see the spots.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no kidding.

[Greg Warren]

Yes. And those are. They are basically leopards with a condition called melanism.

[Tom Griswold]

Michael Jackson.

[Greg Warren]

Those are. Those are also known as Black panthers.

[Shara Lashley]

I was just gonna ask what the difference.

[Greg Warren]

Yes. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Those.

[Greg Warren]

That's what a black panther is. It's a leper with melanism. And for a while, Marvel tested the name leopard with melanism for that movie.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right.

[Shara Lashley]

Doesn't have. Quite the same.

[Greg Warren]

It doesn't.

[Bob Kevoian]

You're right.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. It just. It just didn't pop, you know, I preferred it. It's more accurate. Yeah. They're very good climbers, guys, really. They can go know they can carry their heavy prey right up a tree and they can just hang out there in the tree with their prey.

[Bob Kevoian]

They also.

[Greg Warren]

They can adapt very well to urban environments, which is terrifying. They sort of live on the outskirts of Mumbai.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Greg Warren]

And they've, you know, worked their way into, you know, sort of outer urban society. I saw one of them when I was in Mumbai. It. He was at the Y on those climbing walls.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Greg Warren]

They have at the gyms. Just rocking up that thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Really showing everybody up.

[Greg Warren]

And people were. Yeah, the guy doesn't even have a harness.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's amazing.

[Greg Warren]

Leopards originated in Africa quite a while ago and. And some people say between 470,000 to 850,000 years ago, which, if you're a scientist, man, you think you could dial it in a little better.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Within 50,000 years, maybe.

[Chick McGee]

A lot of leeway there.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, I know. Yeah. So a long, long time ago now, Leopard print, that was in the. In the. In the 40s. Christian Dior. Oh, yeah, it was. It was basically for women to sort of say, you can't domesticate me. It was a fierce look.

[Tom Griswold]

Interesting.

[Greg Warren]

Which is why they made the. The leopard print apron.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. That was sort of a. Kind of a mixed message.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

Eartha Kit wore a lot of leopard print.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Greg Warren]

Her sister's Winda and Fire kit did not wear any leopard.

[Chick McGee]

Ortho window and fire. Oh, I'm sorry.

[Greg Warren]

Sorry, guys.

[Chick McGee]

Can we get back to roughing the snapper? If you want to talk about. About reaching.

[Tom Griswold]

I was gonna do it one way or the other.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

Wind a Kit. Wind a Kit.

[Greg Warren]

And Eartha Kit. Somewhat stupid, would you say?

[Bob Kevoian]

No, love it. Entirely stupid. Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

A lot of bad mothers wore leopard print in film. Anne Bancroft and the Graduate. Ann, Margaret and Tommy. Peg Bundy.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. They all.

[Greg Warren]

This look was sort of pioneered by punk rocker Poison Ivy from the Cramps. Guys. Familiar?

[Chick McGee]

No, I am not.

[Tom Griswold]

I have heard some Cramps. Yes.

[Greg Warren]

Have you? Yeah, yeah. It was in the. In the 60s and 70s. It was. It was sort of like counterculture punk.

[Tom Griswold]

Rock B52s may have had a little bit of leopard print as well every now and again.

[Greg Warren]

Oh, did they not, Fred?

[Tom Griswold]

But the. The women. Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

What was her name?

[Tom Griswold]

Sally Buffon.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think so.

[Shara Lashley]

That sounds right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, because she had a solo hit or something. Or maybe I forget what her name. Yeah, yeah. Rosemary.

[Greg Warren]

I think lions, tigers and hyenas will steal the leopard's prey. Oh, this is a thing in the animal kingdom known as klepto parasitism.

[Drew Powell]

Sure, sure, sure.

[Bob Kevoian]

And the bad thing about the hyenas, not only would they steal, but they'd laugh about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. Really rub it in.

[Greg Warren]

And that really burns you up, doesn't it? Insult to injury is what it is.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's exactly right.

[Greg Warren]

I don't like it. Yeah, they.

[Bob Kevoian]

They.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, they wait till you. You get something and then they just swoop on in.

[Bob Kevoian]

We used to.

[Greg Warren]

In wrestling practice in college, you know, we would wrestle live and then every now and then our coach would come in and wrestle after we'd been wrestling each other for a very long time. Let me jump in there. Which we sort of. We called that vulturizing, you know?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

We're already tired. We're already. Already feeling. But he was tough.

[Chick McGee]

He'd. He'd roll around with you guys.

[Greg Warren]

No, he. No, he would wrestle us.

[Chick McGee]

That's what I mean. I mean, touching and grabbing and kissing a little bit.

[Bob Kevoian]

You gotta. You gotta admit, he hugged you a couple times.

[Greg Warren]

He did not. I mean, there is a move called the bear hug.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's how it starts. I bet there is asking. Yes, sir.

[Chick McGee]

Now we're segueing into the homoerotic aspects of leopards.

[Greg Warren]

No, we're not.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Greg Warren]

Seven times better than humans in the. In the dark. Guys, say it again.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry, we interrupted.

[Tom Griswold]

What.

[Greg Warren]

Imagine that.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know, the only thing you got going for you is you're really nice. So watch it. Okay. Leopards can see seven times better than humans.

[Greg Warren]

See, somebody's listening. Seven times better than humans in the dark.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow. Wow. Cool.

[Greg Warren]

Yes, I've tested this.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah?

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, I had. Was with one of my leopard friends and another leopard was holding some. Some playing cards far off in the dark.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I said.

[Greg Warren]

I said, that's ace of clubs. That. He said, no, that's a seven of clubs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He saw it better.

[Greg Warren]

Guys, if they're. The tip of the tail starts twitching, watch out. That's when they're hunting.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, so that's a good sign. Hey.

[Chick McGee]

So they. They might Be hunting you.

[Greg Warren]

Well, I don't think they go after humans well too frequently.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is this one of the where they are scared? More scared of you than you are them Him?

[Greg Warren]

I don't know chick, but I really like this sort of the little slight lilt that you had in there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, that's a, it's a folksy saying.

[Shara Lashley]

I like it a lot.

[Bob Kevoian]

I wish you would do more of that.

[Chick McGee]

Said said to many people before they were attacked by a wild animal. Don't worry about that snake. He's more afraid of. Oh, by the way, Greg, I was doing some homework here. What does your hat say again?

[Greg Warren]

Goo goo cluster.

[Chick McGee]

Did you know that the band the Cramps, one of their big hits was called Goo Goo Muck?

[Greg Warren]

I did not know that.

[Chick McGee]

So it's all, it's all tying in.

[Greg Warren]

I, I didn't know. It feels as if when I was doing the report you were just looking at some stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

That is what he does.

[Chick McGee]

You know, I just, I did, I was not familiar with the cramps and I, I, I'll have to. He's easily listen to them every 28 days.

[Greg Warren]

Speaking of short gestation periods, do you know who has the shortest.

[Bob Kevoian]

Vermin? Eight weeks.

[Chick McGee]

Mouse.

[Shara Lashley]

Goldfish.

[Greg Warren]

A mouse sized animal. Mouse sized marsupial known as the stripe faced Dunner.

[Shara Lashley]

Ah, what's that?

[Greg Warren]

It's, it's like, it's just like your.

[Bob Kevoian]

Regular Dunner, only it has a striped thing. Oh, okay.

[Shara Lashley]

Thank you so much for clearing that up. Check.

[Bob Kevoian]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

It's like you're talking.

[Greg Warren]

It's like a, a mouse with the, like a, like a kangarooish mouse basically.

[Chick McGee]

And what is the gestation period?

[Greg Warren]

11 days.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow. Man. Was there anything funnier than when Sylvester and his little son would go out fighting the, the mouse and Sylvester got a hold of a kangaroo.

[Chick McGee]

That's my favorite, man. That favorite of all time.

[Bob Kevoian]

Boy, oh boy, that kangaroo. Rude kick Sylvester.

[Tom Griswold]

My father, the stripe face Dunner is adorable. Absolutely adorable.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Does he look like brave? Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

And you be careful when you think they're so adorable because if you guys, you know, get together, you're not gonna have a lot of time to get your life in order. Because 11 days later you're gonna have a child.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Holy heck. Really? Yeah. 11 days.

[Shara Lashley]

It's impressive.

[Bob Kevoian]

No time to build a room.

[Tom Griswold]

A baby room.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh no, exactly.

[Greg Warren]

You, you have a kid. It takes a lot of planning, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Barely get the crib together.

[Chick McGee]

Greg Warren is going to be at Dr. Grins in Grand Rapids beginning Thursday, running through Saturday. Then a special Event in Madison, Wisconsin this Sunday evening. It's Greg Warren at Comedy on State. And if I'm not mistaken, you've got. Do you have two shows, is that right in Madison?

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, we, we added, added a show, a matinee if you will.

[Tom Griswold]

Awesome.

[Chick McGee]

I know he appreciates you mentioning the one. That was three specials ago, but we should also mention the new.

[Chick McGee]

I was mentioning the good ones.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, I see.

[Greg Warren]

You thought the Champ was good, didn't you?

[Chick McGee]

I did. I was just kidding. Geez. Go see Greg live at him first. He's great. And it's.

[Greg Warren]

Man, there's some jokes in there, Tom, that I would say are exceed the Earth, window and fire.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that'll, that'll settle. Thanks, Greg.

[Shara Lashley]

Lastly, good morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello, Josh. Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ace Cosby. Andy, I'm Chick. Hello, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, Chick McGee. We certainly enjoyed Greg Warren.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, we did. Warren Report is sponsored by champion windows. Visit championsavenow.com all right, all right.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you, Champion Windows. Shara, sitting at the Silac Insurance news desk. We've been talking about birds and we've got the. We got some. We got some bird news coming to us, I guess. Well, two of them. I guess the happier story is the one from New Zealand. So let's start there.

[Shara Lashley]

Okay. A falcon has come out on top in New Zealand's Bird of the Year election this year.

[Bob Kevoian]

Election?

[Shara Lashley]

Yes. The Kare ria, the indigenous Maori name for the New Zealand falcon, was crowned bird of the Year in the annual poll run by conservation group group Forest and Bird.

[Chick McGee]

What's the name of it again?

[Shara Lashley]

Forest and Bird or the name of the bird?

[Chick McGee]

The bird is the word.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you just said it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Tom. It's New Zealand.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

A falcon, Tom. It's a karea cairia.

[Tom Griswold]

When you're flying into first and your wings are.

[Shara Lashley]

It's a fast and agile bird and it, it's celebrated for its hunting skills.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's fast, agile, hostile, mobile.

[Chick McGee]

And this is a huge thing in New Zealand. The bird, the bird election is gigantic. This is like the fat bear thing in Alaska. With that they get, you know, millions of votes. And because New Zealand is all about birds because there are no indigenous mammals except some kind of a bat, I think.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, hobbits. What about people?

[Chick McGee]

Well, there are people there too, of course. Kiwis, Maori.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then you know what bird should win next year? What the. I, ladies and gentlemen, I submit the shoe Bill Stork.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there we go.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, look at that thing.

[Chick McGee]

Look at that cartoon.

[Bob Kevoian]

And it's about 5ft tall, I'm not kidding.

[Chick McGee]

A gigantic nose or beak.

[Bob Kevoian]

And look, it's glaring at you.

[Shara Lashley]

It's a dinosaur.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

It is very prehistoric.

[Bob Kevoian]

And it makes some noise with its beak that sounds like, oh, when it gets mad, you're too close, it goes, how are you?

[Shara Lashley]

Always has a cigar with it.

[Chick McGee]

Talk about nice pecs.

[Bob Kevoian]

You got a big pecker. Look at that thing. What an odd creature, huh? How's that still alive?

[Tom Griswold]

It does look very Jim Henson.

[Bob Kevoian]

And there's a picture online. It has a baby monkey in its mouth. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

How tall is that bird?

[Bob Kevoian]

How big is that having dinner? Seems like five feet tall. Five feet tall. It's a monster.

[Chick McGee]

Is the bird called the blue footed?

[Bob Kevoian]

Blue footed booby.

[Chick McGee]

Is that in. Is that a New Zealand bird?

[Bob Kevoian]

I think it might be. And it's a glorious. It's a beautiful blue. It's really the blue footed booby. You see it and you can't name it anything else.

[Chick McGee]

But now we have another bird story. This one's a little rougher. I'm warning you. This is where you need one of those warnings. Where the following story contains the sound of gunshots.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah, this one's not cute. A man from Florida is facing animal cruelty charges after killing and eating his pet peeves.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's his own peacock. It's his own pet.

[Chick McGee]

I. I mean, I. But I would ask, what's the difference. What is the difference between eating a chicken and eating a peacock?

[Tom Griswold]

Right?

[Chick McGee]

I mean.

[Tom Griswold]

Or turkeys.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, but the story gets here. The story, it's a little bit sicker.

[Shara Lashley]

Okay. The 61 year old man told investigators that he had killed two of his peacocks because his neighbor kept feeding them. He had written the neighbor telling her that he would continue to kill his pet peacocks if she kept feeding them to prove a point.

[Bob Kevoian]

Weird.

[Shara Lashley]

I do not understand what the. That math.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, the guy's got a screw loose, apparently.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. That's very odd.

[Chick McGee]

Hope the neighbor didn't complain about his wife.

[Tom Griswold]

I see you get my wife an apple. Thanks a lot. Now I'm a widower.

[Bob Kevoian]

I told you. I gave you a warning.

[Chick McGee]

But I mean, is the. Is eating a peacock wrong?

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, this is rather ghoulish, I guess.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah, I feel like it's wrong, but it feels like it's because of their supposed intelligence level. So I don't know if that's.

[Chick McGee]

I know. I mean, Buffalo Wild Wings famously serves peacock wings during pride month.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

What. I mean, here's, here's, here's what I. I just want to ask. Are my co workers here, do we want to sift through that for comedy or do we want to move on to the next?

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, I have genuine questions. I don't know if they'll be.

[Chick McGee]

Peacock is rainbow like and it's colorful.

[Tom Griswold]

Just a lot of teal.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I was. Another joke I was considering.

[Bob Kevoian]

Was what another joke? I was considering Consider if you eat.

[Chick McGee]

Peacock, you'll have a. Have a glorious rainbow like, fecal event.

[Tom Griswold]

You're thinking of the NBC peacock. Actual peacocks aren't colored.

[Chick McGee]

Like, they're not. No, they're colored peacocks.

[Greg Warren]

Oh, boy.

[Bob Kevoian]

They're not peacocks of color.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Sorry. Okay, now Frank Sinatra has walked into the room. Frank, I can't believe you're here. Call me Old Blue Eyes, Chairman of.

[Bob Kevoian]

The Board, anything but Frank.

[Chick McGee]

We're Frank friends now. Okay, good. Hey, Blue Eyes, I know that you're a big fan of birds and few people realize this. When you lived in Palm Springs, you had an aviary attached to your. To your ranch house.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Try to keep the birds.

[Tom Griswold]

Try to keep them alive.

[Bob Kevoian]

Feed them, you know, give them love.

[Chick McGee]

Nothing.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, remember when Kennedy said he was going to stay at your place and then he didn't?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, that pissed me off.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I shouldn't bring that up, I guess.

[Chick McGee]

Still hurts. I can't help but notice you brought your keyboard player with you. Thank you, Quincy.

[Bob Kevoian]

No clams this time.

[Tom Griswold]

Queens sing to you about a little bird thing. Egrets.

[Chick McGee]

I've had a few.

[Tom Griswold]

Gonna swallow the first joke.

[Chick McGee]

Egrets. We all heard it, we all know it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Let's move on.

[Chick McGee]

Are you the egret is a bird? You know, Buffalo Wild Wings for Pride Month.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Hit the T. Boy, I've had a few.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Bob Kevoian]

And a cockatoo who needed too much attention.

[Chick McGee]

I put them in a dooby.

[Bob Kevoian]

Doobie zoo but they didn't like that form of attention. Oh, they want to live. Bring the piano up, Quincy.

[Tom Griswold]

Big ending a life that's full.

[Bob Kevoian]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

And crap on cars on the highway.

[Bob Kevoian]

So I opened up their cages and let them fly away.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, Chairman, thank you very much.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you very much.

[Bob Kevoian]

Gay Pride Month.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you very much.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, Frank, do you celebrate K Br?

[Bob Kevoian]

I sell Celebrate my own way.

[Chick McGee]

It's easy as end. I married Mia Farrell.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you hear what they did at Buffalo Wild Wings for Pride Month?

[Chick McGee]

I heard.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, they eat peacock. There's a couple other jokes in there if you dig deep enough.

[Tom Griswold]

Like I said, I don't know if we want to get our hands dirty with this or if we.

[Chick McGee]

Everybody calm down.

[Drew Powell]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

Coming up, our friend Adam, actor Drew Powell.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, not anymore. You're. You're not his friend.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Bob Kevoian]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and.

[Drew Powell]

Tom show this morning. The show is also out there for you on our YouTube channel. Watch and subscribe. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Bob Kevoian]

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

[Shara Lashley]

Good morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello. Hello. Josh Arnold. Hello. Ace Cosby.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm Chick McGee. And Tom, we have one of our favorite guests, Mr. Special, Mr. Tiger, joining.

[Chick McGee]

Us in the studio. Drew Powell, actor. And Drew is one of the performers in the great TV show, can you still call it a TV show called the Pit?

[Tom Griswold]

Pit series if you want.

[Bob Kevoian]

And America's villain.

[Chick McGee]

And the Pit won a number of, of Emmys. And Drew, I, I guess you were mad at me earlier when I kind of said what happened to his character.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you're very pro. Spoiler alert. I don't care.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, sorry.

[Drew Powell]

Oh, man. Yeah, I've gotten in a lot of trouble doing that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Tom.

[Drew Powell]

I'm right there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Although if you've watched the first season, you know, you know what happens.

[Drew Powell]

I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, yeah. It's been, it's been a minute, people.

[Chick McGee]

But it's a terrific show. And I actually, I've had a, recently a number of encounters with various professionals in the medical field.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow. Can you make that more confusing? Instead of, I went to the doctor.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I, but not only just the doctor, but I've had two surgeries in the last three weeks. So I've, I, no, no. And I would always ask them, hey, are you watching? And the Pit, they're all saying the exact same thing. It's the most accurate show of its kind ever made. Yeah, it's, it's about, in this case, it's about an emergency room. And you do not play a physician.

[Drew Powell]

I do not. No.

[Chick McGee]

Did you read for any of the roles of the physician or did.

[Drew Powell]

No, no, no, no. I, I, that's not the role I get to play. I don't get to be the doctor. I get to be the guy in the waiting room for nine hours. But I was working with Noah Wiley, the now Emmy winning star who also is a writer on the show.

[Chick McGee]

He's the executive producer. He's a brilliant, have you ever heard of. He's a brilliant guy.

[Drew Powell]

He's a buddy of mine. I've been to his house where he has. Spoiler alert. For anyone that goes to his house, a secret library. You pull, you pull the bookshelf and hit a book and then you go inside a lot of porn. But it's like, it's like old school.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Really classy stuff.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah, classy.

[Drew Powell]

That was When I worked with Pee Wee Herman, that was a whole different thing.

[Chick McGee]

Did you. Did. When you read for the role, did you do it in person or was it a video?

[Drew Powell]

It's funny you say that because, you know, acting now has gone to almost exclusively. Self tape, they call it. So you film it yourself and send it in, whereas it always used to be in person, which was way better for me. Anyway. This was one of the rare cases where it was in person. And John Wells, you know, the guy that's brought you West Wing and ER and a million things, was right there, like, right in front of me, like, I mean, three feet away, smiling up at me, you know, and, you know, you get out of practice, you know, not being in the room, doing this audition. So I was a little nervous, but. But it worked out. And the show is. I knew when he told me about it, we were doing a show called Leverage with some of your listeners. I know. And we were. He was working on that in the morning as an actor, and then the afternoon he would write with the writing crew. And so he's telling me about. I'm like, oh, man, this sounds pretty good. A Get me in there and be like, this could be a paradigm shift. Because the way that they tell the story is different. The way that they shoot it, even the technical technicalities of how they pay the actors and how they. Because they wanted to shoot it in la, but there's. You know, it's really expensive to shoot there, so they figured out a way to do it. I mean, it's. It's a very efficient show. They have doctors and nurses and people on set and. And the amount of work they do to make it look like it does. But even. Have you noticed, like, they don't have music, really, every once in a while they'll have some kind of. But, you know, they don't let music tell the story. They let the action on the screen. So it's a really. And when I tell you, usually you'll have like a second. They call it second team. You'll have a stand in come in for you, and you can go back while they. That's not happening in this show. I sat my butt in that waiting room and they give me a bathroom break every once every hour. And so, you know, you play.

[Chick McGee]

You play. I can say this with a disgruntled person in the waiting room, which I.

[Drew Powell]

Feel like we've all been there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right.

[Drew Powell]

I mean, that's pretty relatable. Yeah. When you're there and they're like, okay, yeah, we'll see. My character has heart pain or chest pain, and. And he's waiting. And then people keep coming in with, you know, more serious situations, and so they keep jumping, getting ahead of him in the line. And so, you know, by our three or four, you're starting to get a little miff. By hour nine, you know, you're ready to go crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

So, Drew, when you audition, do you like to walk in? You know, when you do do it in person?

[Drew Powell]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you like to walk in as you, or do you. If you're auditioning for a grumpy guy, do you walk in kind of grumpy? Do you want them to see the transformation or do you want them to see the character immediately?

[Drew Powell]

That's a good question, actually, because I've tried both ways. My natural ability is like, I think you hire a person to play a role, you don't hire the role. Although there's a lot of method people that want to, you know, I've got to be the guy. I gotta, you know, stay up all night. I tried it once with this crazy psychopathic killer. And so I came in, like, with like, a dirty shirt and my hair all messed up and I felt so stupid, and they looked at me like I was an idiot. I'm like, I'm never doing that again. So, yeah, I go in like, you're gonna hire me the person, and then let me show you what I can do as an actor. Actor, Cool. And sometimes I think if it's different enough from me, then they're like, oh, wow. I've never gotten more compliments than I have from the pit. Because this guy was. Is such a piece of work, people like, he couldn't possibly be that much of an asshole.

[Chick McGee]

He's not. He's not a nice man.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

We're gonna check in with Shara at the Silac. Insurance News to us. Got a couple more stories out of you. What have you got over there?

[Shara Lashley]

This one is pretty good. A new survey shows that a growing number of couples are getting custody agreements for their pets in the case of a breakup. Ah, these so called pet nups.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, that's. That's unfortunate.

[Shara Lashley]

Are on the rise.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, heck yeah.

[Shara Lashley]

Particularly among younger couples. 35% of Gen Z adults said that they have a pet nup in place. And 75% of Gen Z respondents said that they would take legal action regarding pet custody, compared to 60% of millennials.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, kind of makes sense.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

The dogs love it because it's just like being a kid when Your parents are divorced. You get double the treats.

[Bob Kevoian]

Two meals, probably. Did you feed him? Nobody fed me.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I. I guess, but, I mean.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm all for it.

[Shara Lashley]

I think it's.

[Tom Griswold]

They get a dog together, they get a cat together. They want to be able to spend some time if they. If they break up.

[Chick McGee]

But, I mean, do you. So right at the beginning, when you go out and get the dog with your new girlfriend, boyfriend, do you say, hey, by the way, if we break up, here's how this is going to work?

[Tom Griswold]

I hope that's not the case, but.

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, I think you have to. We got to go through it right away.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a little weird.

[Bob Kevoian]

Speaking of pets and relationships, do you let them. You let the dogs in the bedroom and, you know, one of my dogs.

[Chick McGee]

Sleeps in the bedroom.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, no. I mean, watch the action during a.

[Tom Griswold]

Transaction, like an audience.

[Bob Kevoian]

Tom.

[Drew Powell]

Why does that seem like the perfect word for Tom?

[Chick McGee]

That's ridiculous. He would knock over the tripod.

[Bob Kevoian]

And.

[Chick McGee]

You know, I try to do the three camera shoots every time Mr. Fletcher.

[Bob Kevoian]

Comes in because it's a comedy. Josh, you've had a dog. A pet watch, right? A cat.

[Tom Griswold]

Cat, yeah. I mean, not by choice.

[Bob Kevoian]

I see you had the cat on the headboard somewhere. You're just looking up and, hey, how am I doing? How am I doing? Gravy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I think it's important if you are breaking up that you let your dog know that it's not him.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Oftentimes the cats do think it's there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You gotta go ahead.

[Bob Kevoian]

Look.

[Tom Griswold]

We love you equally. And don't badmouth your. Your ex in front of the.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Let the. Let the. Let the dog discover on his own what a horrible person she is.

[Drew Powell]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

I. I knew a couple that had. This is.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is a huge deal to some people.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. This was a. This was a. I can't go into too much detail, but. But this couple had such a difficult divorce that they had a third party, an attorney, essentially, or someone that worked for the attorney, pick up the dogs. They would come to the neighborhood in a suburban suv, whatever you call, and they would pick up the dogs and then drive them. And they lived as far apart as you can live and still be in the same county.

[Drew Powell]

Oh, my God.

[Chick McGee]

And they were exchanging them on weekends.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

They would bring the dogs back.

[Tom Griswold]

He runs in different circles.

[Chick McGee]

They could not be. They could not be in each other's presence.

[Bob Kevoian]

Somebody from the attorney's office took care of the transit.

[Drew Powell]

That's some.4 paralegals like hey, they could not.

[Chick McGee]

These two people could not be around each other.

[Bob Kevoian]

So that's 300 an hour to drop.

[Drew Powell]

Think about that. One heck of an Uber.

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Goodness.

[Chick McGee]

But they were good dogs. They were good boys. They were good puppies. Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

By the way, speaking of sex.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Drew Powell]

There's a famous actor. I always heard a story from Australia. I'm not gonna say his name. Hugh, Jack, But.

[Chick McGee]

Mel Gibson.

[Drew Powell]

That when he was, you know, when he was going to town, he would cheer himself on.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Go, Russ, go. Oh, I said his name.

[Chick McGee]

Go, Russ, go.

[Bob Kevoian]

Go, Russ, go.

[Chick McGee]

It's Russell Crowe in the third person.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's a rumor.

[Drew Powell]

That's a rumor.

[Shara Lashley]

I mean, if you're doing that, you gotta know that the only reason you're getting any action is because you're like. Right.

[Drew Powell]

But that's the thing. This was before he was famous.

[Tom Griswold]

Does he ever get.

[Drew Powell]

That's the energy that I think got him famous.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, man.

[Shara Lashley]

It was before he was famous.

[Tom Griswold]

So he never got to yell. Are you not entertained? Yeah, I don't yell, but I do that thing where I put my hands together and.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Thank you.

[Drew Powell]

Thank you so much. That was three and a half minutes.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no, I'm on SSRIs. It's way longer than that. We're lucky if it even happens for me.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show.

[Drew Powell]

Perfect.

[Bob Kevoian]

We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios at the Silac Insurance News Desk, it's Sarah Lashley.

[Shara Lashley]

Good morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Pat Godwin. Hi, Chick. Josh Arnold. Hi, Ace Cosby. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom. We have a special guest.

[Chick McGee]

He's an actor, and he's.

[Bob Kevoian]

He's found the screaming goat. By the way.

[Chick McGee]

Drew Powell is here with us. You may have seen him on Curb you your enthusiasm. I first spotted him on Ray Donovan and not the show. I mean, he's currently.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, isn't that guy giving that other guy. Oh, that's Drew Pound.

[Chick McGee]

Malcolm in the Middle, the Pit, The Peewee Herman Broadway show.

[Tom Griswold]

I just saw him in 1408.

[Drew Powell]

That's a deep cut.

[Tom Griswold]

I saw it in the theater. And then I recently saw, like I said a week or two ago, Cusack. Yeah. And Samuel Jackson.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And he's. You're a hotel clerk. Oh, my God, I love that movie.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah, it was. That was. That was fun. My favorite thing was. Was working with. I was Sam Jackson's assistant. He was the hotel manager, and I was assistant. And just like, hanging out with that dude. My favorite thing was that he was.

[Bob Kevoian]

He.

[Drew Powell]

He had a. He has his own personal hair guy. Oh, the guy's got no hair.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. What.

[Drew Powell]

He puts on his wigs? I guess in that one, he had a wig, but that's a pretty good gig for that guy. He's been working with him his whole career. And funnily enough, my great uncle Bob was kind of a model actor in Atlanta back in the. In the early 80s, and there's a picture which I'll post on my Instagram, of him and Sam Jackson with a huge fro, like circa 1981 or something, in the. Like, the casting book. Book for the local. Yeah. Atlanta talent. It's great. It's fantastic.

[Chick McGee]

Was that a wig also?

[Drew Powell]

No, that. That was the real deal. That was the real deal.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, because I was disappointed to find out that the great Billy Preston featured with the Beatles that was a wig.

[Bob Kevoian]

No kidding.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

How do you know that was a wig?

[Chick McGee]

Because I was reading something about the Beatles, which is my hobby.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't believe.

[Chick McGee]

Let's bet $10,000.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a lot of hair.

[Chick McGee]

Why we have to bet it was a massive, massive fro.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. And he grew it out. He could. He's capable of growing hair. You hair obsessed tool. Everything is with you with hair.

[Chick McGee]

Billy Preston played the keyboards with the Beatles.

[Bob Kevoian]

You see?

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry. Well, now, Drew.

[Drew Powell]

Yes, sir?

[Chick McGee]

Are you auditioning for anything right now that you can talk about without getting.

[Drew Powell]

You know, I just auditioned for a movie that I probably. I won't get now because I'm talking about it. But it was about the American curling team. Remember that guy John Schuster? And they won gold in the Winter Olympics. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought curling was going to be the next sport to take the nation by storm. You know, like pickleball and curling. Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

But I don't think it has.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this kind of a Cool Runnings type?

[Drew Powell]

I think it's.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Like a, you know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Feel good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Underdog.

[Chick McGee]

Is this a made for TV thing or.

[Drew Powell]

I don't know. I think it's a. I think it's. It's a feature.

[Tom Griswold]

Like those movies?

[Drew Powell]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

The one where Jon Hamm goes to India to find a pitcher and he gets a cricket. That thing. I love that stuff.

[Drew Powell]

Did you see Touchback? That's one of my favorite ones.

[Tom Griswold]

I've not seen that.

[Drew Powell]

You should watch that then, for sure. That's Kurt Russell doing playing the coach. And it's like. It's kind of like It's a Wonderful Life meets Hoosiers, but on a football field in Ohio. And I had to. I think I maybe have told you this, but I.

[Chick McGee]

We.

[Drew Powell]

It's a flashback. So it starts in present day, and then we flash back to high school because the guy, the lead character, gets to go back and relive, like, the last week before this thing happens. And so in order to look like a high schooler, they said, well, you're gonna have to lose the chest hair. So I'm like, how do you recommend I do that? And, like. Well, we could wax it. I'm like, no. Or there's Nair. So here I am in a hotel in Grand Rapids, nairing off all of my chest hair.

[Chick McGee]

We've all been there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

Not you, Shara.

[Shara Lashley]

Oh, I've done it. Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

The smell of that. That burning chemical burning of your. And then it was like all of these hotel towels full of chest hair in the back. I tipped that housekeeper so much money, like, I am so sorry. She's like, what is going on? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

No. Were you playing a high school kid?

[Drew Powell]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

How many years ago was it?

[Drew Powell]

This was a while ago.

[Bob Kevoian]

What was the name?

[Drew Powell]

Touchback.

[Bob Kevoian]

Touchback.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah. It's streaming somewhere.

[Chick McGee]

Because if you're playing. If you were playing a high school good now, it'd be bad. Touch. Drew Powell is our guest.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hi, Mom.

[Chick McGee]

Hello to your mom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Every time we say something raunchy, I think of her sitting in her living room listening to this.

[Chick McGee]

That wasn't really raunchy.

[Drew Powell]

I know. Especially based on this show. That was nothing.

[Chick McGee]

What do you get recognized for the most?

[Drew Powell]

That's a good question. Gotham is a big one. Fun people.

[Chick McGee]

You still go to the conventions and signs?

[Drew Powell]

Not as much. You know, I did that a lot when the show was going. I think these things have, like, ebbs and flows. Like, you know, pretty soon it'll be nostalgic again. But I haven't done those for a while. But those are really fun. I mean, those are. Those are pretty insane. Like, them. The costumes that people come, like, dressed, the intensity of how much they know about the shows. It's. It's.

[Chick McGee]

They probably know more about it than you do. 100%.

[Drew Powell]

Absolutely. Yeah. They're like, did you know in episode 14 that they. I'm like, I had no idea. But it's impressive, you know, And. And I have a lot of respect for these. The. The fandoms. Man, I had no idea that was a thing until I got that job.

[Chick McGee]

But have you ever had a audition for something, you thought it was the perfect part for you, you didn't get it, and then the movie comes out on it bombs, and you go, yeah, that's that good.

[Drew Powell]

Oh, man. I'm not. I don't want to admit that, but I mean, the amount of shows that I can't. Or movies that I can't watch because I can't bring myself to because I'm like, that was my freaking role.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Because.

[Drew Powell]

Oh, because I just can't do it. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Then over time, you get over it, and I'm like, yeah, it's a great show.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's fine.

[Drew Powell]

But it's like, it is. Because I. I can't. Like, if I gave you a list of all this, the shows that I was like, second place in, like, I was supposed I was up for. What's the show with Tom Hanks? I'm the captain.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Captain Phillips.

[Drew Powell]

Captain Phillips. And to play this first, his first mate on the boat. And. And it was in real life, the guy was shorter than Captain Phillips and I was taller than Tom Hanks, and so I didn't get the job. Damn you, Tom Hanks. Put him on an apple box. So, like, those things where you're like, oh, I'm about to go to Morocco and film this incredible movie with Tom Hanks. Like, no, you're not. They're giving it to the short guy. He's great. I'm. Whoever it was, I'm Sure. He was great.

[Chick McGee]

Apparently the. That particular movie, there's some speculation that that's not how it went.

[Drew Powell]

Oh, is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, he. Apparently he was a grade a.

[Chick McGee]

A yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Idiot.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Like he had been warned numerous times.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh really?

[Tom Griswold]

By everybody. And he went no, no, no, we're going. Yeah, well there are pirates there. No, no, we'll be fine.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, that's the. I, I've read that.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right, right.

[Drew Powell]

Worked out for him. Made him look like a hero.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, what a great movie.

[Bob Kevoian]

That is a great movie.

[Drew Powell]

Especially to get non actors to do that like that guy did.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Greg Warren]

They were terrifying.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Chick McGee]

No, I had a story that I was going to do but I think in deference to your mom.

[Drew Powell]

She can take it. She can take it.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

This is a really complicated thing. I prefer. Maybe we'll skip it. Why don't we get share to do a story? Yesterday I was talking about leaf blowers because I asked the question of the room. What time on a Sunday morning is it okay to start using your leaf blower?

[Drew Powell]

Noon.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think the. I think we settled on 10am Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I was using it at 8am 8am.

[Bob Kevoian]

I jackass.

[Chick McGee]

And then my, then my leaf blower died on me.

[Bob Kevoian]

Good. Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

That's karma.

[Chick McGee]

That's what I think it is.

[Drew Powell]

And God.

[Chick McGee]

But we have a story out of Switzerland that actually came around.

[Bob Kevoian]

They don't have leaves in Switzerland. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What is this?

[Chick McGee]

They're not going to have leaf blowers pretty soon. Do you have the story?

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah. Residents of Zurich decided Sunday to severely restrict the use of leaf blowers and leaf vacuums. More than 61% of voters supported the restrictive rules which authorities said would limit noise and dust pollution. Gas powered leaf blowers and leaf vacuums will be fully banned in Zurich, Switzerland's most populous city only.

[Bob Kevoian]

Sorry.

[Shara Lashley]

No, you go ahead.

[Drew Powell]

No, that was really rude of me. I'm so sorry.

[Bob Kevoian]

These Hollywood types come in.

[Drew Powell]

I was just gonna say that they already did that in la and it's hilarious because I have a gardener. Raul. Shout out to Raul. And Raul's like, I have to increase the prices because I have to switch from a gas powered blower to a battery power. And for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is the exhaust. And they. It is like it's a, it's a desert in la. So it's just a dust bowl every day. So the law goes into effect. My, my, my guy Raul is the only one that switched everybody in the neighborhood's like, nah, whatever. But like. And I'm like, but that's a. They, you know, it makes a huge difference. I mean. Yeah, the difference in the sound like his just sounds like a little like hairdryer.

[Chick McGee]

In my defense, I myself, mine is electric, battery powered. But it's still.

[Bob Kevoian]

8Am why wait till 8? Why not 7?

[Chick McGee]

Well, I'm up at 5.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. On a Sunday, use a flashlight to blow leaves. You. Unbelievable.

[Drew Powell]

Did you see him? I could totally see him with the headlamp on.

[Chick McGee]

I have a headlamp.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, he does. Several.

[Chick McGee]

I, I have several caps. I have, I have clip on lights. I walk the dogs. I've got a flasher in the front, a flasher in the back and then a clip on light.

[Drew Powell]

I love it.

[Chick McGee]

Then I have a little wool cap with a built in light.

[Drew Powell]

Don't you live in the same neighborhood as many IndyCar drivers? That's probably. I mean you could get.

[Chick McGee]

I could get killed.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

So all those guys.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can you do me a favor and take your pants off and put one of those clip lights on your dong and take a picture of that. That would be really tall. But if you took a, if it was dark, you had a light, if you took the picture, I wouldn't see anything but the light.

[Tom Griswold]

Right, right.

[Drew Powell]

When you go to inspect the snapper.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah, right.

[Tom Griswold]

I like to think that you're out there blowing leaves around, scattering them more so that when your gardeners come over, they have some, they have to blow the leaves into a pile.

[Bob Kevoian]

Give them something to do.

[Tom Griswold]

They're not doing your own leaves.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I do everything. I blow them out of my garage.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's what you're doing at 8 in the morning? Sure.

[Chick McGee]

I hate having a dirty garage.

[Shara Lashley]

Do you have a broom?

[Chick McGee]

I have several brooms.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Shara Lashley]

I'm just saying, I'm just saying if it's like it has to be done at 8 in the morning and it's Sunday, maybe we broom it.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's not nearly as loud.

[Chick McGee]

He he, you gotta get underneath.

[Bob Kevoian]

Loud he coughs Loud. He yawns loud. I'm here. Here's my leaf blower. Boo. That's me. I love it.

[Chick McGee]

Do you have a leaf blower?

[Bob Kevoian]

I do.

[Chick McGee]

Do you ever use it?

[Bob Kevoian]

No. My, my guy Dave does all that.

[Chick McGee]

Dave.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dave, my man.

[Drew Powell]

That's the difference between Indiana and.

[Chick McGee]

There's no difference. He's got the one.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think he might. Well, no, it's all. It's a family kind of thing. Okay, good. Dave does. Dave, I think his last name might be Jesus.

[Chick McGee]

Good.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm not sure.

[Drew Powell]

I actually loved mowing the lawn because we lived out in the country, we had a couple of acres. So I get on, put the, put the CD man on. Show my age.

[Tom Griswold]

Not.

[Drew Powell]

Not a Walkman. I'm not that old, but. And I just let it run and, and it was.

[Chick McGee]

You have the bat, the gas powered backpack?

[Drew Powell]

No. Well, I had the, we had the John Deere, man. Oh, that tractor. Yeah, absolutely. But I would go way too fast.

[Bob Kevoian]

You thought you were driving on the tri bad?

[Drew Powell]

Absolutely, yeah. Felt like I was driving 100. I started when I was like 14. I thought that was the greatest thing in the world.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

We're hanging out with actor Drew Powell and Drew is currently playing a. I don't want to give too much away. He plays kind of a disgruntled person in the waiting room in the TV show the Pit, which is. What is that. Is that on hbo? I can. Hbo. Okay. Yeah. And it's, it's interesting show. It supposed to be the most realistic show ever about an er. Noah Wiley, who was in the show ER for years and whose mom was a nurse actually in real life.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wife.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, Wilma.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wilma Wiley. Yeah. And his dad, Walter.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's right.

[Chick McGee]

It's a great show. And. But you have, you have a very significant scene and I will just say this, the interaction you have with one of the actresses. That actress won the Emmy.

[Drew Powell]

She did. And she's awesome like that. What a great story. Here's somebody. That's Catherine Lanassa who's been doing this forever. She said she got her SAG card in the 80s and she. Listen to this. She's been married to three people.

[Bob Kevoian]

People.

[Drew Powell]

Dennis Hopper, French Stewart from 3rd Rock from the Sun. You remember that guy?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

Now married to Grant show. Very happily married there. But like, is that like three of the most different, really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

I think that's fascinating. But she is as cool as it gets. And it was so cool to see her win. And that, that, that show is like, it's been, it's been a fun journey. There's no doubt about that.

[Chick McGee]

Now they're, they're doing a second season. It's going to take place on July 4th because the show takes place each hour is one day of an actual hour.

[Drew Powell]

Y.

[Chick McGee]

Do you know if you're going to get a call back?

[Drew Powell]

I don't know. I mean, I feel like the, the people need to know what happened to Doug dress.

[Bob Kevoian]

They do.

[Chick McGee]

I think I. I can see you.

[Drew Powell]

In handcuffs or Better yet, what if he gets redeemed? What if he comes back, sees the era of his ways and changes his life, huh?

[Chick McGee]

What about.

[Bob Kevoian]

What about.

[Chick McGee]

What about karma? He gets run over by a steamroller.

[Bob Kevoian]

What about if the first episode is, I thought you got punched last year. Well, what happened? He was killed in a hail of gunfire and that's it. That was it.

[Tom Griswold]

I think they're married.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

There we go.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's a twist.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's. Hell of a twist.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hell of a twist.

[Chick McGee]

Well, let's squeeze another news story in here from the Silac Insurance news desk. Sherrod, did I give you the one about we have two loose animals, one bear and one a wallaby?

[Shara Lashley]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Now refresh my memory. Is the wallaby the. The Shetland sheepdog of kangaroo?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Drew Powell]

Wallaby'S a small. Listen, I know this because when we were shooting the Great American Western Ponderosa in Australia, I'm doing a very emotional scene. My stepmother has died, and I'm saying my goodbyes. The tears. I've been working it up all day, and I'm just to the good part and they're like, cut. I'm like, what? Like, turn around. And I turn around, there's a wallaby hopping behind me. It's a small kangaroo.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, so it's the Shetland sheepdog of kangaroo.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I see what you're saying.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, that's the Shetland sheepdog is the miniature collie.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, just.

[Chick McGee]

God, it's the illiterati.

[Tom Griswold]

Well.

[Drew Powell]

What a random connection.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, exactly.

[Bob Kevoian]

The word you need is disconnected prick.

[Tom Griswold]

That's exactly.

[Chick McGee]

Is that Dick for short?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, Cheryl, which one do you have over there?

[Shara Lashley]

I've got both of them here. You want to hear about the wallaby or you want to hear about the loose bear?

[Bob Kevoian]

I want to hear you read one and Josh reading at the same time. That's what I.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, go ahead. Do the bear first.

[Shara Lashley]

Okay. Shop wallaby.

[Tom Griswold]

And ready.

[Shara Lashley]

One, two, three. Shoppers in Oro Valley, Arizona, got a scare when a bear wandered into a local grocery store. Customer. Oh, hey, no big deal. Bananas are over there. Customers quickly alerted employees who called wildlife officials. The bear was tranquilized and safely relocated to the wild.

[Bob Kevoian]

Killed.

[Shara Lashley]

Officials say late summer often brings bears into populated areas as they search for food before hibernation. No injuries were reported.

[Chick McGee]

And I was looking. I was trying to see the name of the. Of the grocery store. It wasn't there. I'm assuming it was a Cub Foods regional joke.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you imagine?

[Bob Kevoian]

We. One of us. It's so much worse than I thought.

[Chick McGee]

But the honey selection is over there. We're getting. We're getting these bear stories every week now.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Of bears walking. And they're getting closer and closer to civilization.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, we're getting closer and closer to them.

[Drew Powell]

There you go. That's it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

By the way, I did read it deep enough into the story. I didn't leave that part in there. But in addition to the woods, the bears.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, also in aisle four.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

When we come back back, we'll have the wallaby.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can you imagine the smell of bear.

[Drew Powell]

Scat if a bear craps in the cub foods?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Nobody films.

[Drew Powell]

Nobody films it.

[Tom Griswold]

Is anybody there?

Fruits and nuts, am I right?

[Bob Kevoian]

I'll tell you.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah, buddy.

[Bob Kevoian]

You see, you go out there and you just look. It's unbelievable.

[Drew Powell]

That's right. I'm in my detective phase now, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

How so?

[Drew Powell]

That's all I do is play detectives. In fact, I've got two shows coming out, one called Criminal on Amazon, which is with every hot young actor like Emilia Clarke from Game of Thrones and Charlie Hunnam and Luke Evans. And I play an a hole detective.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right.

[Drew Powell]

Then I got a movie coming out 2-14-ish, something like that next year with Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry.

[Bob Kevoian]

Nick.

[Drew Powell]

Nick.

[Tom Griswold]

Anybody we've heard of Barry Keoge, a.

[Drew Powell]

Bunch of no name losers. And guess what I play a hole detective.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

And I'm doing a. I'm going to Syracuse, New York in a couple weeks to do a horror film. It's a sequel to the Wretched. Did you see the.

[Tom Griswold]

I did see the Wretched, which apparently.

[Drew Powell]

Was like the only show on during the Pandemic.

[Tom Griswold]

It was like this indie horror movie that came out in the beginning of the pandemic and somehow was number one at the box office. And everybody went, what the hell?

[Drew Powell]

There was nothing else, but it was apparently pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What do you play in that one?

[Drew Powell]

Not a detective, but a police officer.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, man.

[Drew Powell]

State sheriff.

[Chick McGee]

And what did I just.

[Drew Powell]

I don't know. He's just A guy.

[Chick McGee]

What were you. You were just a cop in something else.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah, there's been a lot of cop phases.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, cop. Copperson, the detective man.

[Bob Kevoian]

That was pretty good.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, it was copy my cop face.

[Tom Griswold]

Syracuse, make sure you go to Dinosaur Barbecue in Syracuse.

[Drew Powell]

Oh, is that the same as the one that's in the city? Dinosaur barbecue in New York City.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I don't know that.

[Drew Powell]

So did it start. Start in Syracuse and move to. Yeah, that place is amazing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, cool.

[Chick McGee]

Now, if you could write the ideal role for you, what would it be? Would you like to play?

[Drew Powell]

That's a great question.

[Chick McGee]

Realistically, I would like to do. Not like Peter.

[Drew Powell]

I would like to play George. I want to play Brad Pitt. I want to play Brad Pitt as Brad Pitt when he was shooting, you know, what was the. What's the one?

[Chick McGee]

Fight Club.

[Drew Powell]

Sure. Yeah, all of those. Oh, yeah, I would like to play. I would. I want to do comedy. You know, like I. I got a chance to go back early a few months ago and we. They doing a sequel to Malcolm in the middle. There's four episodes going to be on Disney and it's basically 25 years after the show had ended. And so we go back and Bryan Cranston's there, whose daughter is in the pit, by the way. Two, two. Two different actors I've worked with in my career. This is how I know.

[Chick McGee]

Is she the one that's on the spectrum?

[Drew Powell]

That's right. Taylor.

[Chick McGee]

Great.

[Drew Powell]

Yeah. Really good. And then I also work with Brad Dourif, who you might know as Billy Bibbit from. And the voice of Chucky.

[Bob Kevoian]

Sure.

[Drew Powell]

He was in the Ponderosa that I was talking about with me.

[Chick McGee]

Not the place you were having lunch, but Fiona.

[Drew Powell]

Fiona, his daughter is. It plays the one with the ankle bracelet in the pit.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, I wonder how those two got their job.

[Drew Powell]

Nepo babies.

[Chick McGee]

They're both terrific.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

We can't even be mad at him.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Now, Ace and I were working on a thing, a sequel. It's called Malcolm X in the Middle.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. A young Malcolm X was adopted by a lower middle class, white, white family.

[Drew Powell]

Malcolm, you get back in here.

[Chick McGee]

So the ideal role for you is.

[Drew Powell]

I just would like to play a comedy. It would be fun. Like, I always thought it'd be fun to play Babe Ruth. You know, like if you think about, like you could do that. Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You got the, the build little.

[Drew Powell]

Little stocky, the chest for it.

[Tom Griswold]

I wrote a script called Babe Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It's about a major league slugger who joins the Supreme Court.

[Drew Powell]

Brbg. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And his dissents. He just looks at somebody's argument and then hits it with a baseball bat. Strike three.

[Chick McGee]

Order in the court.

[Drew Powell]

Order in the court.

[Bob Kevoian]

Remember in the bay, in the big picture with Kevin Bacon and he. Somebody wrote Abe and the Babe or something.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't remember that part.

[Bob Kevoian]

They ran a focus group. The two most beloved characters, Abraham Lincoln and Babe Ruth.

[Drew Powell]

I mean, it feels like that's Hollywood, though. It's like nothing. You can't do anything new. Everything is regressed.

[Chick McGee]

You could be Babe Ruth toward the end.

[Drew Powell]

Okay. Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

What do you mean toward the end?

[Chick McGee]

You know, when he's playing the old timers games.

[Drew Powell]

This son of a.

[Bob Kevoian]

Don't you think you.

[Drew Powell]

I still play 35, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know who you think, but you. You.

[Drew Powell]

I just shave the beard.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wherever you are, you're 37 years old and have a full head of hair is where you are. Yeah. I don't know how you do it, but you do. It's amazing.

[Drew Powell]

I. I swear.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I swear.

[Drew Powell]

By the moon and the stars above. By the way, I had part of this concert that I'm doing this weekend. I. I'm gonna do an homage to my old boy band. Four for you.

[Bob Kevoian]

In high school.

[Chick McGee]

That was the name of your band.

[Drew Powell]

Yep. Four for you. And we were good until they lost the one member.

[Tom Griswold]

And then it was three for the.

[Chick McGee]

Are any of the other members my.

[Drew Powell]

The guy that sang bass. And you know, you remember in the 90s, everything, you'd always have this.

[Chick McGee]

Is he gonna sing. Is he gonna sing with you?

[Drew Powell]

Well, he's literally. I'm not kidding. He's out in the middle of Montana. He, like, hunts with dogs. So I haven't been able to talk to him for two weeks. So he's supposed to be there. And I'm gonna bring his butt up on stage if he is.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Drew Powell]

And then we'll make him talk like this.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, good.

[Drew Powell]

How you doing?

[Chick McGee]

We could probably use a voice lap. Does he know anything about sports? We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Todd Show.

[Bob Kevoian]

I hate that feeling. And if you're here for the wonderful Sarah Silverman.
