Hi.

Hi. There's Ace Crosby. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick. Looking forward to the NFL?
Chick McGee
Oh, you gotta be, man. You just have to be. Yeah. Our long national off season is finally over.
Tom Griswold
Ah, the singing. The singing white men.
Chick McGee
What is that, what is that thing.
Tom Griswold
They'Ve got going that you could just tell right away? It's of a certain era.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
I mean, that is who produced this and at the end said, yeah, we're not going to get one better than that. Just no feeling zero.
Tom Griswold
There's something about it that's really nice.
Chick McGee
Yeah. It's a different time.
Christy Lee
Yeah, a little.
Tom Griswold
But in any event, happy days are here again.
Christy Lee
It's like your Christmas Day, though. Is it?
Chick McGee
Yeah. Some would say it was a. From a better time. Some would say it was from uncomfortable time.
Tom Griswold
Well, it depends.
Chick McGee
There you go.
Josh Arnold
I think some things were great. Some things way worse.
Chick McGee
Yes, sure. But some things were great.
Tom Griswold
Well, my mother used to say that chicken tasted different when she was a kid.
Chick McGee
I've heard chicken tasted different and bananas tasted different.
Christy Lee
Really?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And I don't know how you could prove it.
Chick McGee
Evidently, bananas used to taste like. You guys know the banana.
Tom Griswold
Turn off her microphone.
Chick McGee
When did I say that? Eight years ago. They used to taste like banana flips. Have you seen these? The Hostess Banana Flip.
Tom Griswold
I remember those.
Chick McGee
Yeah, evidently bananas off the. Would taste like that. Oh, that's, that's the original taste of bananas.
Tom Griswold
But it still is a miracle that they can get a banana.
Chick McGee
Well, talk about your future business. Yeah, I mean, they gotta know they got it down.
Tom Griswold
They can get it on the boat, get it so that Right. By the time it hits the grocery store, it's just about to be ripe for short term.
Chick McGee
Just about.
Tom Griswold
It's amazing. Yep. And now we have a lot to get to today. But with respect to the NFL, I was asking this question yesterday. Oh, God, there's a Friday night NFL game.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And I thought the NFL had always stayed away from stepping on college. I mean, excuse me, on high school.
Chick McGee
Football for the last. In college actually from, well, the last couple seasons. There's been a foreign game on, on Friday night. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But apparently that's going to be.
Chick McGee
This is the Last one for quite a while because they evidently are usurping some sort of state and federal law that they announced yesterday, and they're not going to be able to do it anymore.
Tom Griswold
We'll find out about that. But I thought it was just a courtesy, you know, that there wouldn't be an NFL if there weren't high school football.
Chick McGee
Yeah. Because the NFL is. Is known for. Instead of making money, just showing people.
Josh Arnold
Curtis.
Tom Griswold
Well, I think they've got. They've got enough.
Chick McGee
You're right.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, they've got.
Chick McGee
If not, you know what?
Tom Griswold
And I think that all the money.
Chick McGee
I think they disagree that they don't have enough, I would think, but they.
Tom Griswold
Don'T have all the money because we have a story coming up from the NBA that is really funny.
Chick McGee
No, no, it's. It's weird and stupid, and we're going to do it because you want to, but no, it's.
Tom Griswold
It's about cheating.
Chick McGee
It's not about cheating. It's something that goes on with every team, and I don't know why this is. Well, then you're going to have to. You've got. Indict all the teams.
Tom Griswold
All right, well, we'll find out.
Josh Arnold
Christy and I will have to weigh in on how we handle.
Tom Griswold
Okay. We'll certainly look forward to that.
Chick McGee
How do you feel about Steve Ballmer? You like him?
Josh Arnold
Don't know who it is.
Chick McGee
He's the owner of.
Tom Griswold
The.
Chick McGee
Owner of the Clippers.
Tom Griswold
He had the famous quote. He sounded like he was living in a van by the river.
Chick McGee
Down by the river.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah, he was. He was pumping up his team.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Yeah. And he really. It. It was very, very funny. But he makes about a million dollars a second.
Chick McGee
No, no, no. Well, yeah. A billion dollars a year from his Microsoft stock. A billion in dividends.
Christy Lee
Whoa. Just on a. Oh, that's awesome.
Chick McGee
Just hanging out. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
So he can spread that money around. And apparently he's been doing it, but in a way that's not particularly legal with respect to the NBA.
Chick McGee
I want to marry him, have sex with him.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Speaking of a billion dollars, nobody won Powerball last night.
Tom Griswold
I got. I got my tickets right here, and.
Christy Lee
I did get 22. Do you have that at least?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I do.
Christy Lee
$4 back.
Chick McGee
Oh, really?
Josh Arnold
Nice.
Tom Griswold
My top ones are 22.
Christy Lee
There you go. Do you. If you match other numbers with your Powerball, you get even more money.
Chick McGee
You know, only you could. Could take a billion and a half dollar drawing and make $4 sound like a victory.
Tom Griswold
This is a victory.
Chick McGee
Oh, I got 22 right here.
Tom Griswold
So.
Chick McGee
Yeah, take that.
Tom Griswold
40 bucks on the tickets.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Still down 36. But that doesn't matter because my budget. My budget's a hundred dollars, and there's another drawing coming up. What, Saturday?
Christy Lee
Yep. So you still have a chance.
Tom Griswold
What's the. What's the payoff on Saturday?
Christy Lee
1.7 at right now, but.
Tom Griswold
1.7 billion.
Christy Lee
Yeah, but depending. The third largest jackpot ever. But depending on how many people buy tickets, that could go up, you know?
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, it's gonna go. It's going up, baby. Okay, well, we'll. We'll have to get in on this one. This time when we do a group buy in, everyone else can chip in.
Christy Lee
I chipped in.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I did, too, but we all had varying degrees.
Chick McGee
You didn't chip in.
Christy Lee
I gave you 20 chipage.
Chick McGee
When did you get it? Hang on, hang on. Tom, did you get a receipt?
Christy Lee
I did not.
Chick McGee
Well, buy or beware.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Christy Lee
Bought my own ticket. Just because I knew. Whoa.
Tom Griswold
Now we have make me sound like letters. Letters to get to today here in the Bob and Tom program and a.
Chick McGee
Tribute to Tom in the Bob and Tom letters.
Tom Griswold
Oh, really?
Chick McGee
Yes. Very nice.
Tom Griswold
Dear reprobates and the lovely Christy Lee.
Chick McGee
That's us.
Tom Griswold
I want to say thank you to Tom. I was listening to today's show where Tom went off on the Trash Nazis at the farmer's market.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Once again, I got yelled at by some guy for trying to dispose of something.
Chick McGee
You sure did.
Tom Griswold
This dictator that doesn't go in there. In any event, you've given him a.
Chick McGee
Slightly Eastern European accent.
Tom Griswold
Well, he goes. I was. Let's see. Oh, I was pulling out the recyclables from the rest of the trash. But tonight, I said, hey, thanks, Tom. Screw it. The lawless liberation was exhilarating as he just threw it in the trash.
Christy Lee
Okay, well, we set out both the cans, though, today. I don't give up on it.
Chick McGee
No.
Tom Griswold
It'S just. I do, but I. The percentage of that stuff that really gets recycled is extremely low.
Josh Arnold
You know, that's kind of not on us. I see a. I have a glass bottle. I see a glass recycling bin, and I put it in there, and it doesn't make its way. It's not my fault.
Christy Lee
It's not our fault.
Josh Arnold
I did my part.
Chick McGee
You tried.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that's the problem. Because you think you're doing something. Something.
Christy Lee
Well, that's not.
Josh Arnold
But they're making me think I'm doing.
Tom Griswold
So they just want you to feel well.
Chick McGee
But if I think I'm doing something. I'm doing something that's not my.
Josh Arnold
That's not our fault.
Chick McGee
Right?
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Yeah. But what you're doing really isn't working.
Christy Lee
Well, we'd like to. And what makes you rose colored world.
Chick McGee
The arbiter telling us what we're not. What we're not succeeding.
Tom Griswold
That's, that's, that's top secret. We. We need to push on here. What else is coming up in the world of sporting news?
Chick McGee
We got the US Open men's and women's semi final going on. Yeah. Only eight more weeks. You're going to get wnba. Last night Steve Ballmer and Kawhi Leonard are in. In Dutch with the NBA. Is that still like their synonym for trouble?
Tom Griswold
I haven't heard that in a long time and I always like that. And I wonder what the Dutch did to get that.
Chick McGee
They continue to tear down my beloved NFL Red Zone. First I have to put up with Scott Hansen instead of Siciliano. And now they're going to have commercials during Red Zone which is defeating the entire concept. And cornhole. You feel up for some cornhole and Christie?
Christy Lee
No, not today. Thank you.
Chick McGee
All right. Well, it's fun, isn't it? World record in cornhole and hemorrhoids in the news.
Tom Griswold
Not only are hemorrhoids in the news. I did. Did you see the second I found a interesting hemorrhoid thing that I was not aware of involving spirituality and religion.
Josh Arnold
Interesting.
Tom Griswold
And hemorrhoids and the same story. You're welcome. I think you'll really enjoy it when we get to it. We want to get your letters. Bob and Tom. Bobandtom.com we'd love to hear from you.
Chick McGee
No one said anything. And he said you're welcome.
Christy Lee
He's so excited about not a word.
Tom Griswold
What was I going to mention? Oh, I know we have. We are in the process of setting up a version of our pigskin pick em competition that has not yet been established. But NFL fans hang in there. We are working on something. A special project today.
Chick McGee
NFL Kickoff caught us by surprise. We really didn't hear about any of it. So we're kind of late to start. Josh, help me here.
Josh Arnold
I.
Chick McGee
No, no. Because of direct mail and carnivals. I mean I can understand a lot.
Tom Griswold
Of busyness behind right now. It's. It's quiz time. You like to start the show. Get your thinking cap on. It's from our friends at the Silac Insurance company. You've heard us talking about annuities. I didn't know what an annuity was until we started talking about these things. This is really interesting. And who are the new annuities experts? Of course, it's the Silac Insurance Company. So here's your quiz. It's something we call the McGee 3 now. Dear Chick Magee, I want to browse and read about all of the Silac annuity options. What is the Silac address, please?
Chick McGee
The Silac website is. I will tell you now. Silacins.com that's s I l a c I n s dot com.
Tom Griswold
Question two. By the way, you got the first one right now. I love. This is really interesting. A 20% bonus by going from a 401k to a Silac annuity. What is the story on that? What phone number can I call to get the information?
Chick McGee
Just dial pound250 on your cell and say bonus 20. That number again. 250 and say bonus 20.
Tom Griswold
Okay, last question. You're doing great. Two for two. Dear Mr. McGee, would it be too much to ask if you could read the Silac disclaimer?
Chick McGee
It is too much to ask. Please, Christy, if you don't mind.
Christy Lee
Premium bonus may vary by annuity product, premium band and surrender charge period selected and may be subject to a premium bonus recapture. Some products with bonuses may offer lower growth rates or capsules. Consult your financial advisor. Terms and conditions apply. See silacins.com indisclosures.
Tom Griswold
Oh, you were so close. I'm very good. Christy.
Chick McGee
Is playing again. Hey, I really like national football.
Christy Lee
You really like this?
Chick McGee
I don't find that surprising.
Christy Lee
It sounds like something would be played out the of funeral.
Tom Griswold
No, but it just is so dated and weird.
Josh Arnold
That was FDR's big election song, wasn't it?
Chick McGee
Happy Days are here Again. Yeah, that put him over the top.
Tom Griswold
I mean, that is such an odd, odd vocal. That's how they get that sound.
Josh Arnold
It's like they. Look, fellas, fellows, you're happy, but let's be gentlemen about it.
Chick McGee
Let's couch it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's got that Rudy Valley heavily affected Happy Days on here again.
Chick McGee
You can see all of them putting their hand to their ear and there's.
Tom Griswold
Some like, weird east coast accent.
Chick McGee
Not a straight man in the bunch.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, this time. This time, just the straight guys sing.
Chick McGee
Total Happy Days are here Again.
Tom Griswold
One of my favorite things is when bands have like the. The horn section off mic doing the background vocals.
Josh Arnold
Many of you could be convicted of butt foolery.
Tom Griswold
Don't make me laugh over here. I got a problem. Didn't they open at burning man. For once again, this is our show and we're going to come back with it. And we'll be here when we come back. And I hope you're here because when we're back here, we'll be here again in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios where we remain. The Bob and Tom show.
Chick McGee
Welcome back to the boba top show. There's Christy Lee. Hi, Josh Arnold. Hello. Ace Cosby. Hey, Pat Godwin on assignment. I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
I believe arriving later today, it'll be both Willie G. And Patty G. Wow, both.
Chick McGee
Are they related, the G's?
Tom Griswold
I think Patty G. May be Willie G's godfather.
Josh Arnold
How is he taking them? I like to think that it's a godfather. God. Son. Breakfast.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Enjoying.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Well, if it is, could I put in an order, please?
Chick McGee
I just like to add that whoever made that arrangement, that was a wise choice.
Josh Arnold
If something happens, I think Willie should have to move in with Pat.
Chick McGee
Absolutely.
Tom Griswold
Oh, that'd go well.
Chick McGee
Have some guidance.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that'd go well. I have. Never mind Willie. By the way, tonight, Louisville comedy club. Check out Willie G. Live it in person this evening. And then he's at the Summit city comedy club Saturday in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We'll talk to Willie and Patty G. Coming up. Now, we. It's traditionally at this time we go to the mailbag. You got anything over there?
Chick McGee
Well, actually, I do. It's a letter for the one, the only Tom Griswold. It goes like this, from Jake. Dear Bob and Tom show, I live in the Midwest. I've been listening to your show for years. For the first time I think ever, I was filling up my car and lo and behold, a tanker truck pulled up. Tom, I just want you to know if I don't make it out alive, please know I love you and I love your show. That is from Jacob. And I believe we have a. A lie. A live shot of what happened when he was trying to fill up his tank and a picture of him at the gas station.
Tom Griswold
Okay. But he made it out. The size of that thing made it out alive.
Chick McGee
That is a rather complicated gas pump there seemed to be getting more and more complicated with bigger and bigger video screens. Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
You get your Mario Lopez talking at you sometimes.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Oh, boy, that's a thrill.
Chick McGee
There's what you need.
Josh Arnold
He's keeping me informed on certain pop culture nuggets. That one might do you think we.
Chick McGee
Are we better as a community with Mario Lopez on the.
Tom Griswold
I like Mario.
Josh Arnold
He's a likable costume.
Tom Griswold
And Kit Hoover. Kit Hoover.
Josh Arnold
Is that another.
Chick McGee
I think Kit Hoover's.
Josh Arnold
They don't access daily.
Chick McGee
Correct.
Tom Griswold
They do access correctly named. You'd like her, Chrissy, because you're bigger than she is.
Josh Arnold
She's a cutie.
Christy Lee
Oh, really?
Tom Griswold
She's like miniature. She's a super good athlete.
Christy Lee
I had to work with Mario Lopez once.
Tom Griswold
How'd that go? Not well. Okay.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I'm sorry to hear it.
Chick McGee
Well, that's a. That's a real surprise.
Christy Lee
Yeah, right.
Tom Griswold
Well, now let's see. We have more letters over here. Let's see what's going on. Dear Bob and Tom show. You were talking about Burning Man.
Christy Lee
We had a couple stories from burning.
Tom Griswold
No need to wait in line to get out by a single roadway. You have to take a private jet and land in the desert for the event.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, that's the way to go.
Tom Griswold
Danica Patrick on social media is an annual attendee and posts about it.
Josh Arnold
Nice.
Christy Lee
Yeah, she's all over Instagram from Burning Man.
Chick McGee
Wow.
Christy Lee
She had like all these different outfits.
Chick McGee
Another reason not to go. Yes.
Tom Griswold
Well, from Green Bay. Thank you, Ron. Yeah. The big story, we had a couple of them. One of them was the orgy tent was destroyed by the. What was it called? The boob. Boob Dube.
Christy Lee
A boob.
Tom Griswold
A boob. The boob tube. The haboob winds tore down the orgy tent.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
And then the big story was a woman gave birth at the event and apparently she did not know she was pregnant. I was not aware of that.
Christy Lee
I didn't hear that part of the story.
Tom Griswold
And she was not apparently showing. Whoa.
Josh Arnold
So I hope her.
Chick McGee
Well, that's possible. Well, well, if you're really, really big.
Tom Griswold
I guess I don't think that was the case.
Chick McGee
You know, I didn't know I was pregnant. That TV show always starts out the same way. Yeah. I was on the bathroom. I was toilet and I tried to get up and I was still attached to the toilet. The umbilical cord. The baby's in the. In the toilet.
Josh Arnold
Water birth.
Chick McGee
Yeah. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
So that was that. That was the big story from Burning Man.
Josh Arnold
You guys remember yesterday? I created a. What's sure to be a best selling calendar.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
Spice season. We're in the beginnings of it. And I said, why not a. The pumpkin spice latte, of course, is probably the most famous thing when it comes to pumpkin spice. And I have created a calendar called the Pumpkin Spice Hottest.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Josh Arnold
Where it can be good looking men, good looking women, whatever your choice is. Maybe you like both you greedy bastards.
Tom Griswold
But what's the pumpkin spice connection? Huh?
Christy Lee
Are they gonna be.
Tom Griswold
Are they.
Chick McGee
What do you mean?
Josh Arnold
Oh, okay, that's a fair question.
Tom Griswold
I mean, in the photographs, are they holding pumpkin.
Josh Arnold
Some will be. Imagine a strapping muscly man among a pumpkin patch. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Christy Lee
With a strategically placed pumpkin.
Josh Arnold
Oh, boy. Well, that's where the letter comes in. Christy Shane from. Oh, I love the name of this town. Temecula.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah. California.
Josh Arnold
Yes. He says maybe you could have another version called Pumpkin Spice. Naughty. And that's where it gets a little more risque for those who need a little extras. Extra spice in there.
Tom Griswold
So the guy around his waist is holding. Is holding a pumpkin with one of those huge stems on it pointing towards the sky.
Josh Arnold
Oh, there you go. There you go. Or maybe he's.
Tom Griswold
What about a calendar for the heterosexual men? But in our audience.
Christy Lee
Yeah, little pumpkins. Those little mini pumpkins.
Josh Arnold
Oh, that's in front of a woman's.
Tom Griswold
But now this is just. How many months is this calendar?
Josh Arnold
October. Yeah, that's it.
Christy Lee
You'd have a latte a day.
Josh Arnold
That's right. Let me see my daily pumpkin spice. Nate.
Christy Lee
Yeah, this.
Tom Griswold
This actually might work.
Chick McGee
Does somebody come in and go, I'd like a lot of latte.
Josh Arnold
I know I would hope so.
Chick McGee
One of them. Yeah, but that gives him one of.
Tom Griswold
Them that gets an eye roll. What's your name?
Chick McGee
The closed mouth laugh. Always hilarious.
Tom Griswold
You always give your real name when you go to a coffee place like.
Chick McGee
Like that? Yes. No.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, but I should start getting more.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Cuz I. I never like to bother anybody at work. It's just easier.
Tom Griswold
Just.
Josh Arnold
Hey, I'm. Yeah, my name's Josh.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, Aloicious. I did. How do you spell that?
Chick McGee
They asked me for my name one day and I said for some reason, I said, chuck. I don't know, maybe I was time traveling. I don't know. And the lady said, doug, Doug. And I went, yes.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, it's Doug.
Chick McGee
But then you have to remember, I have to listen for Doug.
Tom Griswold
Now, we were talking about the Mile High Club. It was.
Chick McGee
And you passed judgment on it.
Tom Griswold
It was one of the. In that Reddit thing, that one of the most overrated sexual fantasies was joining the Mile High Club. But then we got into a discussion of what does that really constitute. Does it have to be on an airplane? I say no.
Josh Arnold
We all seem to have our own definition.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
It just means being alone.
Chick McGee
I say people in Denver are in the Mile High.
Christy Lee
No, you got to be on a plane.
Tom Griswold
There's got to be. It's got to be kind of in a public performance.
Chick McGee
You made the point. They have. They must be aloft.
Tom Griswold
Yes. So on a gondola at a ski resort. That's fine.
Chick McGee
That's fine.
Tom Griswold
Hot air balloon, perfectly acceptable.
Chick McGee
But the argument can be made that ski lift. They're not aloft. They're tethered.
Christy Lee
Right.
Tom Griswold
But I think the argument has to be made. If something goes wrong, they'd plummet to their deaths.
Chick McGee
All right.
Christy Lee
That's your definition. Huh?
Chick McGee
They'd have to fall just right to break a neck or something to actually die. That's. The snow's soft. Come on.
Tom Griswold
I don't think it's.
Josh Arnold
That something goes wrong at the top of a building in Denver. La Chick's Point.
Chick McGee
That's right.
Josh Arnold
And you could plummet to your death.
Chick McGee
I'm giving a tour up there on the balcony. What's going on? Yeah.
Christy Lee
Railing brakes. Whoa.
Josh Arnold
Boy, I hope you get to finish first, huh?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
You think you'd finish mid fall coming.
Tom Griswold
And going at the same time.
Chick McGee
There's nothing wrong with that. Hack old joke you tell people. That's an okay joke. Okay.
Tom Griswold
That's why I did it.
Chick McGee
All right.
Tom Griswold
It's one of the classics.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
This comes to us from Aurora, Missouri. Do you know where that is, Josh?
Josh Arnold
I don't.
Chick McGee
We're all experts on the Satan we're from.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Isn't that interesting that we all.
Josh Arnold
But I'm going to find out.
Tom Griswold
No matter where you're from, there's always a place you've never heard of.
Chick McGee
Mine are mostly up in Northeast Ohio. I've never heard of that. Any of those places.
Tom Griswold
But the only people that know every place are beautiful. The weather people are amazing.
Chick McGee
It's very impressive, too, that they know, you know, all the states. It's very impressive.
Tom Griswold
And all they have. They have that weird trick of. The weird trick of standing in front of them of the map, not looking at it, but pointing to the right.
Chick McGee
Place and the counties. They know the counties that they're not far from.
Josh Arnold
Springfield, Missouri.
Tom Griswold
Aurora. Yeah, this is Adam from Aurora. He's the crew chief of a hot air balloon.
Chick McGee
Oh, does that mean the hot air balloon lands and they change the basket real quick and send it back up a pit stop for the balloon?
Tom Griswold
Like all of your listeners, I hate to answer me.
Chick McGee
I'm sorry.
Tom Griswold
Like all of your listeners, I hate to agree with Tom, but the Mile High Club does include hot air balloons. I know another pilot who had that happen in his basket.
Chick McGee
I think Though the hot air balloon almost lends itself to having sex in it. I mean, there's plenty of room. There's. The lady can rest her hands on the railing.
Christy Lee
There's that sound of the.
Chick McGee
There's the whooshing sound.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but when the whooshing sound isn't. Isn't it just a wonderful quiet?
Christy Lee
Yes.
Chick McGee
You know the dirty little secret hot air balloons. And I maintain there's a dirty little secret to everything. And the hot air balloon one is when they go the whoosh, there's propane sprays everywhere, including on the passengers.
Tom Griswold
No.
Chick McGee
Yes, it does.
Christy Lee
Oh, it doesn't.
Tom Griswold
Where'd you get that dumb idea?
Chick McGee
I was in the hot air balloon and I got propane sprayed all over me.
Tom Griswold
You didn't catch on fire?
Chick McGee
No. There wasn't an igniter on my clothes.
Tom Griswold
Isn't there a giant flame right above.
Chick McGee
Your face right there?
Josh Arnold
But can you feel the heat when they do that?
Chick McGee
Oh, you can feel the heat, baby.
Tom Griswold
He goes. A few fun facts. The air temperature in the top of the balloon reaches 250 degrees.
Chick McGee
Nobody cares.
Tom Griswold
And you can fly up to 12,500ft. Whoa. So hello to Adam in his truck right now.
Christy Lee
Gets a little tough up there, but.
Josh Arnold
I'd like to eventually go up in one. So maybe I'll make my way to Aurora, Missouri.
Christy Lee
Say hello, get you up in a high.
Tom Griswold
I can get that done for you.
Josh Arnold
I want to do it in Aurora.
Tom Griswold
Well, okay.
Chick McGee
I always wanted to go in the hotter balloon up by my old house. I wanted to do that one, you know.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah. The one that's tethered.
Chick McGee
Yeah. The one that's covered.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
So the hot air balloon that's tethered, does that count for the hot mile?
Josh Arnold
There's no way that one goes a mile.
Christy Lee
No way.
Tom Griswold
It's counts the mile. The mile aspect of it is not important. It's the aloftness.
Chick McGee
The mile aspect. So then the very. The very name is not important.
Josh Arnold
It has to at least be a mile.
Tom Griswold
I have a question for you. What do our Canadian friends call it?
Josh Arnold
They're in the kilometer club.
Tom Griswold
I rest my case. It's about being.
Chick McGee
Do you think we'll ever switch over to metric?
Tom Griswold
No.
Josh Arnold
Canadians say mile because all here's the dirty little secret about Canadians.
Chick McGee
Yeah, here we go.
Josh Arnold
They all want to be American.
Chick McGee
That's right.
Tom Griswold
You know something? You're not the only one that feels that.
Chick McGee
Absolutely. He speaks.
Josh Arnold
I don't know that we've gotten your definition of the mile high club. What are your rules?
Tom Griswold
For it. It.
Christy Lee
I've never been in it.
Josh Arnold
Right. But what do you think are the parameters?
Christy Lee
I think the parameters are you have to be in an airplane and ask me a commercial airline.
Chick McGee
Commercial.
Josh Arnold
I agree.
Chick McGee
Not even a pj.
Josh Arnold
So you and I have the strictest rules.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Well.
Christy Lee
And with another person.
Tom Griswold
You know, it's. It's nice, too. I like the confidence that you have, even though you're wrong.
Chick McGee
I say orgasm needs to be achieved.
Josh Arnold
I do, too.
Chick McGee
However that's accomplished both.
Tom Griswold
Does it have.
Chick McGee
Not necessarily.
Tom Griswold
And it must be. What is it? What's it called? Flagrant delecto.
Josh Arnold
Whoever achieves is now in the club.
Chick McGee
Right.
Christy Lee
So if you don't, you're right.
Chick McGee
Well. And if you're getting a handy or a blowy, the facilitator is not in the club.
Christy Lee
No, that doesn't count. I just. It has to.
Chick McGee
No, no, no, no. It does count. Under a blanket.
Tom Griswold
You guys are really muddying the waters under a blanket.
Josh Arnold
In for Christina. It's very simple.
Christy Lee
Yeah, you have sex in the bathroom. Done.
Tom Griswold
Oh, no, it's got to be in one of the seats. See? No, I'm just kidding. Of course that's not one of the rules.
Chick McGee
Coitus in the seats.
Josh Arnold
That'd be quite an airline.
Tom Griswold
It's a matter. It's a matter of being. It really should be. Rename it. That's all there is to it. Please weigh in by getting a hold of us, Bob and tom@bobandtom.com Coming up, we have some sporting news. Some more letters from you. A. A religious connection to hemorrhoids.

Chick McGee

Josh Arnold

Chick McGee
That's a very good joke. Of course not.
Josh Arnold
He doesn't mean it. But that's a fine point.
Chick McGee
I don't mean it. That is a fine point.
Tom Griswold

Chick McGee

That's right. And the NFL season starts tonight, albeit the Cowboys and the Eagles. We have to suffer through that.
Tom Griswold
But still, that's got to be tough for you.
Chick McGee
Oh, Pu. Although, although the game tonight could, could. I don't know how, but somehow I think probably the Cowboys are going to be in it. Somehow, I don't know. But it could turn into Eagles 42, 10 real easy.
Josh Arnold
Oh, okay.
Tom Griswold
So are you going to pick it?
Chick McGee
I picked them all, man. The Chick McGee on Instagram. All the games are picked, baby.
Tom Griswold
I had no idea.
Chick McGee
That's great.
Tom Griswold
Okay, good chick.
Josh Arnold
Does Jerry Jones travel with a team?
Chick McGee
I'm sure he does. Yeah, because he's the only owner in the NFL, who has a post game news conference?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I was. Okay.
Chick McGee
After. After each and every game.
Tom Griswold
Does he. Does he sit there and tell the pilot how to drive?
Chick McGee
Well, see, I haven't actually flown a plane, but I've dug some whales. I can tell you that. I've been under the earth. And you don't want to end up.
Josh Arnold
See an interesting man.
Chick McGee
I guess he would have.
Josh Arnold
There's a two hour documentary about him. Is it worth a look?
Chick McGee
It is the biggest hand job you've ever watched.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
That's okay. So you don't necessarily.
Chick McGee
Well, he had total control and editorial.
Christy Lee
How do you make his money?
Chick McGee
Oil.
Christy Lee
Oil, Oil.
Chick McGee
Speculate old oil. Wild cat. You know, he. He calls Billy Bob Thornton. There's some sort of. Now Billy Bob Thornton's a fixer online.
Christy Lee
That's true.
Chick McGee
He's not actually out there. Wildcat. But Jerry refers to the bunghole. Oh, that is a term in oil speculation.
Tom Griswold
The bunghole.
Chick McGee
Sometimes bungholes dry. Oh. Sometimes it's filled with oil.
Tom Griswold
There's that one movie where there's a dry bung hole and the guy spits in his hand.
Chick McGee
What's that called?
Christy Lee
Oh, gosh.
Chick McGee
Jerry.
Josh Arnold
Brokeback Mountain. A lovely Jerry about two men. Just trying to figure it out.
Chick McGee
Your thoughts on possibly Tom Griswold.

Seriously.
Tom Griswold
I'd like to reduce the number of syllables in words. Seriously.
Chick McGee
Seriously.
Tom Griswold
I just said Halloween shortage. Halloween.
Josh Arnold
I don't remember if Ross Perot is still with us.
Chick McGee
Oh, I don't.
Josh Arnold
But I'd like to hear a conversation between those two men.
Tom Griswold
He already ruined our country one time.
Christy Lee
But you're right, they sound very similar.
Tom Griswold
No, I was just trying to.
Chick McGee
Not my campaign.
Tom Griswold
A couple could be. Well, if we're talking bungholes, I think we have to play this.
Josh Arnold
1, 2, 3.
Chick McGee

Tom Griswold
Bigger than about.
Christy Lee
As someone who lived in a trailer park. People that had the double wide were looked up to. I gotta tell.
Josh Arnold
Really?
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
It was like a class system.
Christy Lee
Oh, heck, yeah. Oh, double wide. Oh, my God. That's like a real house.
Josh Arnold
Did you have a deck that you could kind of go out on?
Christy Lee
We had a little pat. No, no. Just a little patio off the front.
Josh Arnold
Okay.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Like a little landing? More or less.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
It was kind of fun. Like a neighborhood. You had a pool, right?
Josh Arnold
I had plenty of friends who lived in trailers, and we. It was never a thing. It wasn't like we had a beautiful pool.
Christy Lee
We had a clubhouse. It was gorgeous.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Now, I don't want to get too personal here, so you don't have. Feel free not to answer this question. When you became an adult.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
You no longer lived in a trailer.
Christy Lee
No, I left when I was 18.
Chick McGee
You did not aspire to get a.
Tom Griswold
Nicer trailer, did you? Did you ever, in your experience as a lady about town, find yourself in a.
Chick McGee
Somehow you've made that sound dirtier. I know. That was.
Tom Griswold
No, no. As a young single gal, did I.
Christy Lee
Ever date anybody that had a trailer?
Tom Griswold
Did you ever find yourself. I don't want to be too direct. Having coitus in a trailer.
Christy Lee
Maybe that's a yes.
Tom Griswold
That's a yes, I think.
Chick McGee
Did you have propane? Did you have propane? Heat? You have a tank outside for your trailer?
Christy Lee
No.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Christy Lee
No, we didn't.
Tom Griswold
How did you heat it?
Christy Lee
I don't know. Electricity? I think it was electric. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was electric. It was tied down. That was a big deal.
Chick McGee
I almost rented a trailer in West Virginia when I First moved down there. And it had propane tank.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it was tied down.
Christy Lee
That means there are straps around the trailer to keep in case there's a tornado. It doesn't blow away.
Chick McGee
Oh, you gotta have the tie.
Christy Lee
Gotta have the tie down.
Chick McGee
You gotta have time.
Christy Lee
And it had to be skirted, too. We had a high class trailer park skirt.
Josh Arnold
Did you skirt it with like lattice or did it need to be.
Christy Lee
We had it matched the siding of ours.
Josh Arnold
Okay. Yeah.
Chick McGee
No, it looks like home. It looks like a duvet. It looks like a sheet on your bed skirt.
Christy Lee
Like a bed skirt.
Tom Griswold
So back to. Back to my larger point here. So you're a single lady about town. You meet some guy and you go back to the trailer.
Christy Lee
There's a shock. He was a musician. Are you happy now?
Chick McGee
Was he a bass player?
Tom Griswold
Make me laugh too hard.
Chick McGee
I got it. Was he a baseball?
Christy Lee
No, he was a lead singer this time.
Chick McGee
Oh, you know how you knew he's a lead singer? He had the Sweat bands on.
Tom Griswold
Please tell me it was the one who became the. The multi millionaire.
Christy Lee
No, it wasn't him.
Tom Griswold
Okay. That guy.
Josh Arnold
It wasn't Mumford.
Tom Griswold
No.
Christy Lee
So he became a tech multi millionaire.
Tom Griswold
Did you. Was it nostalgic going back into a trailer?
Christy Lee
I was. It was. You know, I was only three or four years out, so it wasn't a.
Tom Griswold
God, I thought you were gonna say three or four years ago and I would have high fived you.
Christy Lee
No. God, no.
Chick McGee
Before you met Andy, your husband. Yes.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Chick McGee
How many men have we gone through since?
Christy Lee
Are we really gonna talk about this?
Tom Griswold
Is not a fair question.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I mean, it's at least a baker's dozen. And by that I mean there have been at least a dozen bakers, but.
Tom Griswold
Well, just one that I know of. That is a. That's an inside joke. I apologize. That was just. Really. I blame you, Josh.
Chick McGee
When you're first getting to know someone and you ask about former yes, isn't the answer standard 5. Didn't we arrive on that one Morning.
Christy Lee
Has never asked me that. And we never.
Josh Arnold
Because he knows he's. He's with you.
Christy Lee
Yes. It's.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
The past doesn't matter.
Chick McGee
Here's the reason I don't ask her that question. Because she'd answer it and I don't have. Yes. I don't have that kind of time. I'm so sorry.
Tom Griswold
I just wanted to play the song that had the word bunghole in it and it got beeped.
Chick McGee
Yeah. What the hell?
Tom Griswold
So we were talking about Jerry Jones. He likes to Use the word bung.
Chick McGee
Bung hole. That's right.
Tom Griswold
Now that isn't a bung hole. Part of a barrel.
Chick McGee
A part of. Yeah, the bungholes.
Tom Griswold
Is that where they put the spout in a barrel?
Chick McGee
I'm going to say to speed things along, I'm going to say yes, a.

Tom Griswold
Yeah. Okay. It's very nice. What. What's going on in the world.
Chick McGee
Actually, this. This letter. Dear Bob and Tom show. You guys remember the Chuck E. Cheese mascot?
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
Journal Jones. He was arrested at a restaurant in Tallahassee July 23 for credit card theft and fraud. You remember he was in the mascot uniform. He was in the Chuck E. Cheese uniform.
Tom Griswold
There's a video of it, right?
Chick McGee
There's a. Well, there's not just any video of it. They've released the body cam video of. And here it is now. There he is. There he's doing the purple.
Christy Lee
The kids.
Chick McGee
Had to be everything you thought it would be. They're walking him out. He's got the mouse head on. They didn't give him a chance to take the head off. It just unbelievable. The old. And they take him out. Watch your. Then they took his head off to get him into the cruiser.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. And he was in possession of a stolen credit card.
Chick McGee
Yes, but we were. We were all thinking of the children.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Of course. You feel like they could have taken him out. They could have done something else.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. There have been a weighted. Discreetly go. Were they afraid he was gonna run?
Josh Arnold
I don't know. But you think they could coordinate with the manager in some way and go, hey, the next time he goes into the break room, we're gonna be in there and.
Christy Lee
Or make it funny.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah. He stole a piece of pizza.
Christy Lee
Kids, we gotta go talk to him about that.
Tom Griswold
Even though I think that's still a little rough.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, well, sure. But at least at some point, something.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Did you see over the weekend, the Oregon duck fell over and he lost his head as he fell over and he ran back into the tunnel. Yeah. It's nice. No, you don't see it.
Christy Lee
Did they fire him?
Chick McGee
But he did the right thing. No, they did the right thing. You immediately ran for cover. If you lose your head, you're not supposed to be seen. If you're.
Tom Griswold
Oh, did you know that mascot gear to be Purdue Pete you have.
Chick McGee
There he goes.
Tom Griswold
Unusually large head. Okay.
Josh Arnold
We just watched the video of the person running and.
Tom Griswold
Okay, I Mean, it's.
Josh Arnold
He really has to hustle back.
Tom Griswold
He does the right thing.
Chick McGee
Yeah, he does.
Tom Griswold
What, does somebody trip him?
Josh Arnold
No, he's, like, attached to, like, a big spring at one point.
Tom Griswold
I think it's.
Chick McGee
I think it was part of the bid. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
The giant feet, I think, are a problem. Sure.
Christy Lee
Running those.
Chick McGee
You think they would. When they design the suit, you. They can design anything they want. And I mean, they. Feet more conducive to running.
Josh Arnold
Well, when I was Foghorn Leghorn, I'm surprised this doesn't have. I had a chin strap so that the helmet really couldn't.
Chick McGee
No kidding.
Josh Arnold
That was affixed to the head. I'm surprised all mascots don't have that.
Tom Griswold
And now, when. And when you were Foghorn Leghorn to learn the dance moves, do they put you in front of a mirror so you can see what you're doing?
Josh Arnold
No, no, no. When you learn dance moves, you can just. You just dance.
Christy Lee
Do you have big feet? You had big feet, right, for the.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I. But they. Yeah. And I couldn't wear shoes in them. Yeah. So they were just like giant slippers, essentially.
Christy Lee
Okay. Were they hard to walk in?
Josh Arnold
Yeah. You. You learned to really step high. Yep. And then the funny thing was, after, like, a day of working, you kind of still step.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah. Because you're used to the giant cock feet.
Josh Arnold
Right, right, right. Yeah, yeah. Because, of course.
Tom Griswold
No, don't. He's baiting.
Josh Arnold
You don't like horn was a rooster. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Rooster.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Very good, Very good. But you're. So. What you're saying is it's that thing where you go down a pair of poorly built stairs where you get. You get that kind of rhythm of the steps, and then you get down to the last one and it's too short. Yeah. Do you have any photographs of you as Foghorn?
Josh Arnold
Like, yes. Somewhere. And I know there's. I think there's still video of a show.
Tom Griswold
That's my C material.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. I'll have to see.
Tom Griswold
Now, yesterday we did photo day here at the radio station.
Christy Lee
Yes, we did.
Tom Griswold
And have they posted any of them yet? I know that we. We have.
Chick McGee
No, I don't think they're.
Christy Lee
I think they were for internal use.
Tom Griswold
Have them posted. All right. Well, you all look very nice.
Chick McGee
Another surprise.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Everybody. Yeah.
Chick McGee
Hey, did you know South Carolina? You know what their mascot is? South Carolina are the Gamecocks. The Gamecocks, that's right. And they have a mascot who's a.
Tom Griswold
Gamecock, and that's a type of a Aviary.
Chick McGee
I'm guessing I don't. Aviary.
Josh Arnold
Probably one for hunting if it's game.
Chick McGee
But on his jersey it says cocky.
Josh Arnold
Cocky the gamecock.
Chick McGee
Cocky the game.
Tom Griswold
Makes sense.
Chick McGee
That is his. That is his name. And nobody says anything about it. It's kind of like reminded me of Octopussy. They just let it go.
Josh Arnold
Well, one can be cocky.
Chick McGee
Yeah, well, it's still borderline naughty, is it not? What about the children?
Tom Griswold
No, not at all. Okay, now let's move on. Here we have sporting news to get to.
Chick McGee
Well, no, we got one more letter. Dear Bob and Tom Show. As you talked about yesterday. Yes, I too, Tom. On my drive home, I passed the giant glass building where if you look over, you can see yourself driving your car on the highway.
Tom Griswold
Huh.
Chick McGee
And I've added that if you can also see yourself waving at yourself, it's going to be a great day. If you're doing in the morning, obviously.
Josh Arnold
You know when it's a bad day is when you wave at your reflection and it doesn't wave.
Chick McGee
Nothing there.
Josh Arnold
There's something wrong.
Tom Griswold
That means. That means you see dead people.
Chick McGee
And he said, thanks to you, Tom. Today for the first time, I indeed looked over and saw myself. When I saw my car, I quickly thought, oh, that's a cool car. Oh, wait a minute, that's my car. I looked back forward just in time to see slowing traffic ahead of me.
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Josh Arnold
Please be careful out there.
Chick McGee
It was a close one.
Tom Griswold
We were discussing, was it about. Not numerology, but. Oh, people that are believers in horoscopes and that sort of thing. And you asked me if I did it, any of that, and I. I don't. Except I do. When I drive by that mirrored building, I look to see myself and it's going to be a good day. If you see a reflection ever look at that building.
Christy Lee
I don't know what it is.
Tom Griswold
Maybe I don't want to start doing it.
Christy Lee
Do you think I want to hit somebody?
Chick McGee
A building like that has to file like a variance because it's. It's somewhat of a distraction.
Christy Lee
How many birds hit that thing?
Josh Arnold
And probably a lot.
Christy Lee
Yeah. You know, I would think you know.
Tom Griswold
The building I'm talking about.
Christy Lee
I know exactly.
Tom Griswold
A giant mirror.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. I can't look into it. Anytime I look in a mirror, I just want to make out with myself. So I've really. I had to remove all the mirrors.
Chick McGee
You know what? I'd like to speak on behalf of most of the people in this room. I don't blame you.
Josh Arnold
I'm Often making out with a mirror.
Chick McGee
You're amazing.
Tom Griswold
Thank you, Josh.
Chick McGee
Dear Bob at Top Show, One more. This is for Josh.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Chick McGee
We all know your take on Chef Boyardee.
Josh Arnold
I enjoy the ravioli very much.
Tom Griswold
Me too.
Chick McGee
If it wasn't an excellent product, it would not sell so well. Well, I believe you made that point. Josh, I'm waiting for. For you finally to realize all you have to do is fill Mason jars with Chef Boyardee product and then triple the price of the local farmer's market. There you go.
Josh Arnold
Done and done.
Tom Griswold
Can you imagine a refrigeration issue?
Chick McGee
That's from Josie.
Josh Arnold
There really isn't. I mean, the cans. Well, yeah, maybe if you.
Tom Griswold
I think once you open them, I don't think you can let them.
Josh Arnold
Well, I'll just call it, you know, botulism flavored ravioli or whatever.
Tom Griswold
You can taste it.
Chick McGee
So if you eat botulism, does it tighten up your skin?
Tom Griswold
No, I think it kills you.
Christy Lee
Yeah, you get very.
Josh Arnold
Even smelling it, I think can kill you.
Chick McGee
Oh, really?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Oh, did you have a letter over there? I thought you.
Tom Griswold
I do. I do.
Chick McGee
Oh, okay.
Tom Griswold
This begins all caps. Tom is so right on this one. Now this. We were talking about tipping.
Chick McGee
Oh, Lord.
Tom Griswold
And I mentioned that I do like to tip. I don't really carry cash anymore, but I've started to just like Josh, I mentioned that I particularly enjoy tipping when you have a contest for tips where you have two tip jars.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, and you'll. You. It's kind of like voting. This is from Kristen in Appleton, Wisconsin. I go to two coffee spots, one being a chain. They both have two tip jars asking you to pick your favorite. For example, one said favorite vacation, the beach or the mountains.
Josh Arnold
Oh, all right.
Tom Griswold
I forget. The most recent one I went to, it was particular rock and roll bands. Could be Beatles versus Stones.
Chick McGee
Oh, then I noticed the Dave Clark five and Moby Grace.
Tom Griswold
No, it was the Dave Clark five versus the Beatles.
Christy Lee
They really had that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. That's fun.
Chick McGee
I put if you'd heard of the bands. That's fun.
Christy Lee
How many people that went in there didn't know who Dave Clark 5 was?
Chick McGee
Many.
Tom Griswold
That's because they're just not musically literate. The Dave Clark five had some very nice songs.
Christy Lee
I feel sorry for the person that picked that band. They didn't get any tips that day.
Chick McGee
I bet I can go into that coffee shop and pick out the guy who put insisted the Dave Clark five was made part of that. He's the oldest guy in the building, sweeping up in the back.
Tom Griswold
But he was having fun. But doesn't that make you want to tip a little more because you want to be part of the. You want to be a voter?
Josh Arnold
Sure, yeah.
Tom Griswold
You want to be one of the guys voting?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
What would you put? What would your.
Josh Arnold
Oh, between two things.
Tom Griswold
If you could do two jars, what would you put? Maybe two Stephen King movies versus.
Josh Arnold
Oh, that's kind of fun.
Christy Lee
Vampires versus werewolves.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, sure. Yeah.
Chick McGee
Oh, boy, that's a tough one. The best Stephen King movie.
Josh Arnold
I mean, because you've got the great dramas that are based, you know, Shawshank and Green Mile, Misery. I mean those, some of those have supernatural elements. But the. Yeah, something. Halloween would be really fun every day.
Tom Griswold
Wouldn't it get you to vote though, if you walked in. And I'll. Wait a minute. I gotta. I gotta put in my three bucks here because I want to vote for Shawshank.
Josh Arnold
Right, right.
Chick McGee
I feel Josh is just going to say, you know, why don't I just walk into the place and hand him my wallet.
Tom Griswold
Wallet.
Chick McGee
And you just take whatever you want and then I'll just hand me my wallet back.
Josh Arnold
I really do enjoy tipping good service. I really do.
Tom Griswold
I think it's fun. It's fun. I just. I prefer being able to do it on the card now.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah, sure. Did the letter writer say that they have a. Oh, she just said that there are two places she goes that have that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah.
Josh Arnold
There's some great coffee places in Appleton.
Tom Griswold
And then she gave me some monitor names for girl dogs.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Because one of my children asked me the other day, what's a good name for a girl dog? And I made several suggestions. Then she goes, so we're gonna get one. And I explained we already have two boy dogs.
Josh Arnold
She goes, yeah, yeah, we need a girl.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Names Jordi, Calista, Sienna, Kit, Gemma, Tulip or Sutton. Those are all good names.
Josh Arnold
Jordy is so cute.
Chick McGee
No good.
Christy Lee
Jordy.
Chick McGee
Sylvia. Sylvia or Evelyn.
Christy Lee
Evelyn.
Chick McGee
Call her Evie. That's a cute name for a dog.
Christy Lee
I think of Evelyn Champagne.
Josh Arnold
How about May? Like May? M A E. Sure.
Chick McGee
I think of an old. Old lady. May. Old lady May.
Josh Arnold
May was my grandparents neighbor and I would often go over and visit her because she was a widow.
Chick McGee
Would she show you. Would she show you her boobs?
Josh Arnold
You know, she never did, no matter how often I begged.
Tom Griswold
Gravity not kind to them.
Josh Arnold
Ancient.
Tom Griswold
Well, on that note.
Chick McGee
And you were really young.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah, yeah. On that note, coming up, Willie G. Patty G. Joe Theisman, Al Jackson.

Tom Griswold
Because if you're gonna vote for the Dave Clark 5, it will make you.
Josh Arnold
I think this is a great song.
Chick McGee
Yeah, it's okay.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's fun. Kind of lost in the shuffle. That's why when you go to the coffee shop and they say, vote for the band. Today's the Dave Clark Five day. Why not have some. Some fun?
Chick McGee
To crash the Dave Clark 5 website. And they're just scratching their hair going, what the hell's going on? Give it a listen to. Maybe we should go on.
Tom Griswold
I'm not sure how many of the Dave Clark Five are six feet under.
Chick McGee
I would at least think it's down to the Dave Clark Two. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Or maybe one. I'm not even sure about Dave himself.
Chick McGee
Yeah, well, Dave Clark was the drummer.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Yeah, but fun band. We'll be moving on here coming up. Like I said, we got Al J, Joe T. Al J.
Chick McGee
And Joe T. Willie G. And that's.
Josh Arnold
Not Al Jolson and Patty G. Well, I just don't want the listener to be confused by all the Al Js. It's not Al Jardine.
Christy Lee
No.
Josh Arnold
And it's not Al Joel.
Tom Griswold
Al Jardine, of course, of the Beach Boys, whose birthday was just a couple days ago. The Beach Boys. Wonderful. Now, would you do Beach Boys vs Beatles? Who would you. Who do you put in the tip jar?
Josh Arnold
Do Beatles versus Alcho?
Chick McGee
I would. I would absolutely get in the ring. With Mike love you would and beat him to a point.
Josh Arnold
To do maybe. But a colossal break.
Chick McGee
Oh, just. I mean giant more and more stuff.
Josh Arnold
That comes out with him. Just be quiet, Mike.
Tom Griswold
Just enjoy the tunes.
Chick McGee
Yes, Mike, you're a beach boy.
Tom Griswold
Okay, calm down. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom.
Chick McGee
Hi. Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Chrissy Lee at the Silac Insurance news edition. Hi, Josh Arnold.
Josh Arnold
Hey, Chick.
Chick McGee
Ace Cosby.
Tom Griswold
Hello.
Chick McGee
Willie Griswold joins us.
Willie Griswold
What's going on, man? Good to see you.
Chick McGee
Good. Good morning. I am Chick. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Wilbur. Hello, everybody. Hey, Bob. It's good to be here.
Chick McGee
My favorite nickname for Willie. Wilbur.
Josh Arnold
Willie. We had picture day yesterday. Are you in town to get pictures today?
Willie Griswold
I am not in town to get pictures today.
Josh Arnold
But you look so good.
Willie Griswold
Oh, you do? You mean that? That is very nice. That is very nice.
Tom Griswold
I was just gonna say you're gonna be doing your picture today, but you got to decide if you want to keep the stash.
Willie Griswold
I'm keeping the stash.
Tom Griswold
Keeping the stash.
Willie Griswold
I got headshots without the stash. If you want those. Those shots exist. We got to get the new shots. The stash shots.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
We had a great time yesterday.
Josh Arnold
It was very nice.
Chick McGee
I was shocked and amazed.
Tom Griswold
I think we're gonna post a handful of them.
Josh Arnold
And Pauline, who was our photographer. Tom could teach a masterclass in patience.
Chick McGee
Imagine trying to corral idiots, her being Russian. We idiots, her being Russian. She's used to standing in line. Please mix smiled now. You know. I don't know where she got look excite. She's been here forever. I mean, what's with the accent?
Josh Arnold
She's a.
Tom Griswold
She's a Polish heritage.
Chick McGee
What's your problem?
Tom Griswold
We were lucky to get her because she usually bowls.
Chick McGee
Stock up Wednesdays.
Tom Griswold
Oh, sorry.
Chick McGee
What night does she bowl? I don't know.
Tom Griswold
I'm not sure she does.
Chick McGee
She needs to squirt out a baby.
Christy Lee
She's got great hair.
Chick McGee
Grandpa Tom.
Tom Griswold
So we'll see if we get some of those pictures posted.
Chick McGee
Oh, it's Tom Jr. Okay.
Tom Griswold
No, Willie's on his way to the Louisville Comedy Club tonight for some live comedy. Then Saturday it'll be Summit City Comedy Club in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Willie Griswold
Yes, sir. Thank you.
Chick McGee
Is that known as the Summit City? Oh, yeah, Fort Wayne.
Willie Griswold
Great skiing.
Tom Griswold
A lot of. A lot of towns have names we're not aware of.
Chick McGee
Like the Guardian City, Cleveland, Ohio.
Josh Arnold
Well, everybody knew that.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, right.
Chick McGee
But it was the Forest City. Didn't you make that point?
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Chick McGee
The home of a giant grove of trees.
Josh Arnold
Wasn't the forest city in Star Trek? Kelly.
Chick McGee
Kelly.
Tom Griswold
A common mistake. Let's just move forward here. Do we have anything of sporting interest over there?
Chick McGee
I knew you were going to ask sooner or later. The NBA is close to finalizing another new format for this season's All Star Game.
Josh Arnold
Is this the story Tom just loves?
Chick McGee
No.
Tom Griswold
No. Oh.
Chick McGee
This would include two eight man teams from the US and one eight man team composed of international players squaring off in a round robin tournament.
Josh Arnold
Filthy foreigners, I believe is what they want.
Chick McGee
That's exactly right.
Willie Griswold
If they really did that, if they lead in the filth, the jerseys would sell.
Chick McGee
They look so cool.
Josh Arnold
They just said filthy. Awesome.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. They're going to understand if the team loses it. So of course, off to Alcatraz in the Everglades.
Chick McGee
Of course. According to the NBA release news Release, there are 70% American players and 30% international. What they wanted to do was actually signify countries like from Cuba and Russia, but Russia and Ukraine.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Kind of screwed.
Tom Griswold
The first idea they were going to do it by racial makeup got very, very, very awkward. Wait a minute. This guy's mixed race. How much do we. How do we calculate that?
Josh Arnold
Does he have to run? Does he play for both teams?
Willie Griswold
Again, insensitive. It'd be a fun time.
Chick McGee
And the NBA has. You're on your own.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Chick McGee
The NBA has launched an investigation into whether the Los Angeles Clippers used an endorsement deal to get around the league salary cap. This is unheard of. At the center of the Probe is a 28 million dollar agreement between Star Kawhi Leonard and an environmental startup called Aspiration Fun Advisor Aspiration Fund. Oh, you know, it's.
Tom Griswold
You mean you think this is a fake shell of a company?
Chick McGee
Leonard was reportedly promised 7 million a year for four years. 28 mil. But there's no evidence he ever promoted the company.
Christy Lee
Duh.
Chick McGee
The Times says the firm partly funded by a $50 million investment from Clippers owner Steve Ballmer. This stinks from the head. Okay.
Christy Lee
This can't be legal, right?
Chick McGee
This might be a conflict of interest. The Clippers deny any wrongdoing and say they welcome the investigation if violations are found. Penalties could include a slap on the wrist, millions in fines. Although the last situation, this find, it ended up being a $250,000 fine.
Josh Arnold
No, I love. I'd like to think that he's standing outside the building going, well, we welcome the investigation and you just hear shredders.
Chick McGee
Coming from the windows and Papers flying.
Josh Arnold
Out of windows and people going good.
Tom Griswold
God, hurry up the media.
Willie Griswold
And back of the shot just 1,800shred.
Josh Arnold
Thousands of trucks pulling up.
Chick McGee
But seriously, what would $250,000 be to the third richest man in the world listed at $153 billion.
Christy Lee
Five bucks.
Tom Griswold
And he makes more than a billion a year.
Chick McGee
And on just on dividends from his Microsoft stock.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. So the fines are meaningless. But the problem is it's a no show job. Sure. So why Kwai is not actually doing anything. But they're paying him 7 million bucks.
Christy Lee
And other teams do this.
Chick McGee
Well, it's just like the. When the Astros got caught cheating in baseball. Thank God. Now we won't ever have. Or before then had cheating in baseball. Thank goodness we got the Astros.
Josh Arnold
The lawmakers who. I mean they're guilty of this all the time. People who said the NBA can't do this.
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Chick McGee
How do they say it was straight face.
Willie Griswold
No, I actually paying the players. But you know, some guys getting paid like that's. I'm not that mad about that to be honest.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
You know there's some senator going. But I just want to point out that the fine people at the Aspiration Fund Advisor. These gentlemen are beyond reproach.
Tom Griswold
I know because I'm on the board.
Chick McGee
I'll be at an honorary position.
Christy Lee
I mean that name is ridiculous. I mean think about it.
Tom Griswold
What is it again?
Chick McGee
Aspiration Fund Advisor.
Christy Lee
That doesn't even make sense.
Chick McGee
Afa. Wow. Okay.
Christy Lee
I'm gonna advise you how to have fun.
Tom Griswold
Okay, well, good for Kwai. That's some serious cash. And that's in addition to his regular salary which is dozens of hundreds of million.
Chick McGee
And Atlanta and Chicago went in the WNBA last night.
Tom Griswold
And.
Chick McGee
Scott Hansen has confirmed that he's not only going to be back as the announcer for the NFL Red Zone. I'm not joking.
Josh Arnold
I've never heard him so I constantly.
Willie Griswold
You think that chick is putting something on here? He sounds a little constipated. Maybe Scott sounds even worse.
Chick McGee
So anyway, let's look at Tampa Bay. You have have.
Tom Griswold
If you're.
Chick McGee
You have to mute it. You can't put up with it. The only thing hand Scott Hansen ever did worth a damn.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, he and his brothers, they were talented. Yeah. Hey, this was a catchy song. I don't care what anybody said.
Willie Griswold
It's such a good song.
Chick McGee
Boy, those are good looking kids. Except that one. He really. He's the ugly one.
Josh Arnold
I thought they were all hot. I mean.
Tom Griswold
Well, just when they were young though.
Chick McGee
You have Enough kids. One of them's going to be ugly anyway.
Willie Griswold
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Tom Griswold
Why are you looking over there?
Willie Griswold
I'm not the ugly kid.
Chick McGee
Oh. Instead of promising seven hours of commercial.
Josh Arnold
Free football and Willie, you're right. We saw Sam yesterday.
Chick McGee
Hanson will now open the broadcast by saying simply. Seven hours of red zone football are beginning. I can't tell you how accurate this is. If not.
Josh Arnold
Oh, you're always on these. I totally believe you. I think Tom's annoyed by it.
Chick McGee
The ads will not interfere. Scott says of course he yelled it. The show's mission of capturing every moment.
Josh Arnold
You think he's like that at the dinner table?
Chick McGee
Here's what I don't understand.
Tom Griswold
I always wonder that. That's. That's the question is I've always heard that about all those guys that talk like that.
Josh Arnold
What are you doing a great job.
Tom Griswold
Wow. Don't you pass the meatloaf? Brought to you by.
Chick McGee
And by the way, I'm anticipating sex later. Let's knock it out.
Tom Griswold
All right. Lap up the gravy, baby.
Chick McGee
Please someone explain this to me. I watched Unbothered and I enjoyed Red Zone for years with a gentleman named Andrew Siciliano. He hosted a Red Zone. I think it was on the NFL Max subscription. I got that instead of Scott Hanson. And I enjoyed Mr. Siciliano who works for the Browns now. I miss him terribly.
Tom Griswold
Well, he'll.
Chick McGee
But now it's the mute button. Can you help me, Tom?
Tom Griswold
They're gonna. They have to run commercials. They gotta make some money.
Chick McGee
They're getting paid.
Tom Griswold
I would expand on why they shouldn't run commercials, but we have to take a break right now.
Willie Griswold
And look at you go.
Tom Griswold
I'm surprised. I assume it'll be named. I wonder if they've gone after Red Bull. Make it the Red Bull Zone.
Chick McGee
Red Bull Red Zone.
Tom Griswold
Something like that. But yeah, it makes sense.
Josh Arnold
Or maybe Tampax.
Tom Griswold
All very good. Yeah.
Chick McGee
Feminine centric just brought an ass load of money. And they. There's no way we could say no. Brought to you by modest.
Willie Griswold
And it's not like football fans are sensitive at all. It's not like there's been 30 different scandals in the NFL in the last five years that people keep protesting or.
Josh Arnold
Whatever they want to deal with.
Tom Griswold
Ladies, if you're in the red zone, you need my doll. Is that what Midol's for?
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Do they still. Do they still advertise that?
Christy Lee
I don't know. I'm sure they still. They still have it. I don't.
Chick McGee
Can we find the Kathy Rigby commercial for Feminine. Feminine hygiene probably.
Tom Griswold
That's going to require quite a bit of a setup.
Christy Lee
Or am I singing my doll. Am I my doll. Did we do that bit?
Chick McGee
Wow.
Josh Arnold
There are a lot of scandals still in the NFL though. Yeah, I thought, I thought the whole kneeling thing went away, but the other day I saw Travis Kelsey kneeling in front of some chick. We're still doing this and everybody's celebrating. Move to Canada, Travis.
Tom Griswold
At least he cut off that dumb afro.
Chick McGee
What do see these. Son of a. Drummed out of the country, huh?
Tom Griswold
All right, we are in the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Chick McGee
Want to share something? Send us an email. Bob and tom. Bob and tom.com. this is the Bob and Tom Show. Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Chrissy Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk.
Josh Arnold
Hello.
Chick McGee
Willie Griswold's here. Morning. There's Josh Arnold. Hi, Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chick McGee.
Tom Griswold
Where?
Chick McGee
You're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick. Coming up, Joe Theisman. NFL. Great. Because the NFL season begins this evening.
Josh Arnold
It really does have a creep factor to it, doesn't it?
Chick McGee
Oh, really? This is playing in the background while Bill's sewing is.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Are you ready for bingo, Mother? And it cuts to a corpse upstairs.
Chick McGee
Mother, answer me.
Tom Griswold
Silly.
Willie Griswold
Silly. That's my marker.
Tom Griswold
That's great stuff. Now we also have Al Jackson will be joining us later this morning.
Chick McGee
Morning.
Tom Griswold
And I believe Patty G. Is coming back in. Willie G. Is here with us on his way to the Louisville Comedy Club tonight for a special show. And then Saturday, the Summit City Comedy Club with a guest set for Megan Gailey. It looks like. That'll be cool. Coming up on Saturday. Yeah. Gonna be fun in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Chick McGee
And would you like to cornhole Tom?
Josh Arnold
Are you asking me? Would I like to cornhole Tom?
Chick McGee
No, thank you.
Josh Arnold
Well, you don't. He asked me, but no thank you.
Chick McGee
Well, guess what? This is stupid. World record. Three friends, very good friends from Idaho have set a Guinness world record for the longest cornhole shot using a slingshot.
Josh Arnold
Oh, this is great.
Christy Lee
I love stuff like this slingshot.
Josh Arnold
So they have the beanbag and the slingshot.
Chick McGee
Joel Strasser, Luke Lorick and Garrett Smith launched beanbags for half a day.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, see, this is the. I mean eventually.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
At Meridian High School before finally landing the record breaking shot from 151ft away. Now they're calling this a toss. I don't think that.
Christy Lee
Not if it's a slingshot.
Chick McGee
Qualifies the toss.
Tom Griswold
No, it's sort of a kind of a catapult.
Christy Lee
Oh, there we go. Oh. Like they do with the pumpkins.
Josh Arnold
They sure do. Yeah.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
It's some kind of, what, like giant rubber band? They're just.
Chick McGee
They're just totally.
Josh Arnold
I. I have one of those slingshots, by the way.
Christy Lee
Oh, you do?
Josh Arnold
Yeah. We can do whatever we want with it.
Chick McGee
Can we shoot like apples out onto the road when cars go by?
Tom Griswold
Huh? Yeah, yeah.
Josh Arnold
I prefer rocks because no food's wasted.
Tom Griswold
It really has to land right in the hole.
Josh Arnold
It does because it's not gonna. If it hits the board.
Tom Griswold
It's the board. It bounces off.
Chick McGee
Off. Skip off.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. So when I saw the world's largest cornhole. Very concerned.
Josh Arnold
Oh, I thought maybe accommodate.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, for sure.
Josh Arnold
Andy Dick was involved.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
The longest cornhole, not sure.
Josh Arnold
Are you done back there?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I think. I think if you want to see the longest cornhole, you have to go to Thailand. I believe that's where they.
Chick McGee
Hey, but it's only like 3.
Tom Griswold
3 bucks to get in, I think.
Josh Arnold
Right. Does it have an intermission?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Desperately trying to change the situation. Oh, nope, that's not right.
Tom Griswold
No.
Chick McGee
NFL tonight and they're announcing some changes to the Red zone channel, including commercials this season for the first time.
Josh Arnold
What if we found out that like Bezos owns the right to that song and we. This show owes him like $10,000.
Chick McGee
And you guys were. I don't know if you're not believing my portrayal of Scott Hansen during the broadcast, what he's talking about.
Christy Lee
Yeah. I've never seen the Red Zone.
Chick McGee
Minnesota.
Tom Griswold
Do we have some of Mr. Hansen?
Chick McGee
We do. And what you'll hear is the actual play by play of the actual broadcast. And then Scott jumps in.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Chick McGee
And he feels. He feels the need to augment the broadcast in some way. It'll be pretty obvious when Scott comes in. Here we go. We'll go for two to make it.
Tom Griswold
A three point lead.
Chick McGee
Tough shotgun snap. Jaylen Herz feels heat, throws and incomplete. And the kick is no good.
Josh Arnold
In.
Tom Griswold
In the Green Bay game, Mason Crosby missed again.
Chick McGee
We are going into overtime between the Bengals and the Packers. The Vikings, bottom right hand corner of your screen.
Tom Griswold
Greg Joseph lines up for the game winning 54 yarder.
Chick McGee
And it's is good. And the Lions have their hearts broken. When's he breathing again? I don't know.
Josh Arnold
He must breathe through his ears.
Chick McGee
I don't get it.
Josh Arnold
I'm fast and he doesn't go to bathrooms.
Chick McGee
Muting is the only Muting is my only recourse.
Tom Griswold
Wait a minute. He doesn't go to the bathroom for.
Christy Lee
Seven hours, Holds it. Maybe he wears a diaper.
Tom Griswold
He probably. He must. But yeah.
Chick McGee
That'S so Nurban sits there.
Christy Lee
For seven hours and talks like that.
Chick McGee
Yep.
Josh Arnold
I mean that it is too much non stop.
Christy Lee
It is.
Tom Griswold
What does that say about our culture? I mean that is like the most add.
Willie Griswold
I liked it when I was in college and I didn't have like actual cable. You could get just that. So that's why I would watch the games.
Chick McGee
I feel sorry for people who watch the red zone and really aren't that clear on the NFL. And because I watch it muted and I can follow it. But I mean you rely on play by play something. But not on this clown's watch.
Josh Arnold
I mean he sounds, he's energetic. He's probably knows what he's talking about. But man, that's a lot.
Chick McGee
There is a lot. That's a tough for enthusiasm, I guess. Oh, you're going to defend.
Tom Griswold
I'm gonna defend him.
Chick McGee
Yeah. He.
Willie Griswold
But of course he loves him. His whole job is talking over other people after they explain something. And Tom Grizzle are one in the same.
Tom Griswold
I couldn't. I couldn't do what he does. That's a very difficult job. He's got to be paying attention to all those things at the same time. I can barely focus on one thing at a time.
Chick McGee
What's wrong with him going, okay, let's take a look at Green Bay. All right. Oh, that kick is good. And the Lions lose in overtime.
Tom Griswold
He doesn't want people to fall asleep.
Chick McGee
Well, yeah, yeah, I guess you're right again, Tom.
Tom Griswold
It's hard.
Josh Arnold
It's a curse, really.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, right.
Chick McGee
It's a burden standing up under the weight of my knowledge.
Tom Griswold
You're this guy now because they're going to be doing commercials, right?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Is this going to be like NASCAR where they pop the commercial in and leave the screen? That's what I kind of think.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I hope so.
Christy Lee
Maybe this is because he had to pee. They had to sell commercial.
Tom Griswold
But I was good. He probably would. Okay.
Chick McGee
Thank God they have had slides up in this. Like, you know, he'll be talking and the screen gets a little smaller in a subway or whatever up there on the screen. I thought that's all they were going to do.
Josh Arnold
But yeah, for a paid subscription type thing.
Chick McGee
Exactly.
Josh Arnold
And it's not a tiered deal. You can pay to have no ads.
Chick McGee
Well, here's the thing. I don't know. You can't right now. I don't like and you can't.
Josh Arnold
I don't like it.
Chick McGee
I'd pay extra for Noah.
Christy Lee
He's a blockhead looking guy, isn't he?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
You know what? Pile up in this point.
Chick McGee
No, no, no, no. Not only. Thank you, Christy. Not only is he loud, but he's ugly.
Christy Lee
He's not ugly. He's just Rectangle.
Josh Arnold
What' again?
Willie Griswold
Scott Hanson.
Christy Lee
Scott Hansen.
Chick McGee
And he gets handsy is what I've heard.
Josh Arnold
Now. Now it's just flat out.
Christy Lee
That's not the Dateline guy, right? Or.
Chick McGee
No, that's Chris.
Willie Griswold
Chris Hansen.
Tom Griswold
Okay, that'd be cool.
Willie Griswold
Scott Hansen. It's a red zone, but it's for all the guys that.
Chick McGee
Do you have any idea why you're here? Well, what's the six pack of beer for?
Josh Arnold
He look. Yeah. He looks like a motivational speaker.
Christy Lee
Yes. Yeah, that's a great.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, he's really. He's. I mean, I guess he's handsome, but. You think they call him Scott handsome?
Chick McGee
Oh, I bet they do.
Josh Arnold
I appreciate the compliment.
Chick McGee
Thanks, honey. How's that for later? How's that sex coming? Is that going to be delivered anytime tonight?
Josh Arnold
Tom, here he is. He's. He's. Two hot women as parentheses around him. Oh, he's really. He's encased there. Yeah. Good for Scotty.
Tom Griswold
Good. Yeah. Well, I think they have to make some money, right? It's the NFL.
Willie Griswold
I think that they're doing fine.
Tom Griswold
Oh, there. It's not like.
Willie Griswold
It's like a kid's like, lemonade stand.
Josh Arnold
It's not.
Willie Griswold
They're not raising money for books or for a basketball team. It's for the NFL.
Chick McGee
I think they could send every fan of every team to a game all season long and still make billions of dollars.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Christy Lee
54, never been married.
Chick McGee
No kidding.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
A confirmed bachelor.
Josh Arnold
I can't be tied down. This lone wolf must walk alone.
Tom Griswold
That number 44 is a sweet looking ass. I mean.
Chick McGee
And Scott, do you take Christy to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Josh Arnold
I don't. Not to be tethered.
Tom Griswold
Well, is that sports?
Chick McGee
He must have a lot of lozenges on hand.
Willie Griswold
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
Yes. That's.
Tom Griswold
That's a really tough gig for him, though.
Chick McGee
I think he should be some sort of award. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay. Okay. That's unbelievable.
Chick McGee
Well, does this.
Tom Griswold
Does the red zone take away from people actually watching the games?
Willie Griswold
I don't think so. I don't think anyone's not watching their game because they want to watch. Red zone.
Chick McGee
Absolutely. Yeah. I watch My game and then I.
Josh Arnold
Go to the red zone.
Chick McGee
So.
Willie Griswold
Yeah, or I'll have red zone on my phone or the laptop. That way I can see if, like my fantasy guys are doing well.
Chick McGee
I have a lot of people red zone on their iPad.
Josh Arnold
By fantasy guys, you mean your fantasy football?
Willie Griswold
All the men that I like to look at on my phone.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
They have all the games up all at once. Is that right?
Chick McGee
You can, you can choose that if you don't. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
I think we all secretly have fantasy guys.
Willie Griswold
Ryan Gosling.
Chick McGee
Sometimes they go. They have the red zone own quad box.
Willie Griswold
Oh, the quad box is crazy. That's when four things are happening at one time. Yeah. They start the gate the day with an octobox. It's all eight games during kickoff.
Tom Griswold
It's.
Willie Griswold
I mean, it's dumb, but I'm smiling like a kid right now. It does make me very happy.
Josh Arnold
I don't think, Tom, you'd care. You didn't like the three ring circuit?
Tom Griswold
No, I, I've been on. No, I, I went on record years ago. I, I can't focus. I can't focus on anything. But if a three ring circus way, you got a lady there hanging by her hair. Now we're being distracted by a gorilla over here.
Chick McGee
I.
Christy Lee
What am I to watch?
Tom Griswold
And I mean, you know, what am.
Chick McGee
I supposed to do?
Willie Griswold
That was so real.
Tom Griswold
An octobox sounds like a James Bond cheap knockoff.
Chick McGee
Wow.
Tom Griswold
We had octopus. Then we made octabox. You know, try to keep up with that, you know, feminine hygiene thing. Our theme here.
Chick McGee
I think they've done the concept with hockey. NHL has something similar red zone, red zone concept and they want to bring it to college football and major league baseball. Can I just say all at once.
Tom Griswold
Our culture doesn't know the word enough.
Chick McGee
I think it's fine.
Tom Griswold
No, it's enough. It's overwhelming too much.
Chick McGee
I'm.
Tom Griswold
But it's a distraction from the horrific reality we live in. We'll be right back. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Chick McGee
Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning. Catch any part of the show you missed later today on our YouTube channel? Channel.
Christy Lee
All of you.
Chick McGee
That really stump.
Christy Lee
It wasn't supposed to be there.
Chick McGee
I. Hi, welcome.
Tom Griswold
I'm sorry, it's on my thing over here.
Chick McGee
Bob and Tom show.
Tom Griswold
Okay, we got. Hey, look, as Chick McGee just said, there are a lot of words out there. How can we be expected to know all of them?
Christy Lee
Exactly.
Chick McGee
Come on, be realistic.
Tom Griswold
We all have A word we can't say properly. You can't say municipal.
Christy Lee
Municipal. Now I really think about it.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Christy Lee
I can't say not municipal like I used to say.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, bowl, bowl. No, you have a bowl of cereal and you're. And. And you go to Pamplona for the charging of the bowls.
Chick McGee
There's something still wrong with the way you're saying.
Tom Griswold
I don't know. It's my. Oh, broadcast quality voice.
Josh Arnold
I have trouble saying commitment. I do one of the words. I have trouble getting at him in mouth.
Tom Griswold
This one. It's kind of complicated. Heterosexual.
Josh Arnold
Well, it's like having a fourth brother.
Tom Griswold
Consider Josh. I consider Josh my. My little brother. Because I never had a little brother.
Christy Lee
Yeah, we know.
Tom Griswold
I have two older brothers and a sister, but I never. I'm the one that always got pounded.
Chick McGee
I thought you did have a little brother. No, it was like a Kennedy situation, though. They sent him away or something.
Willie Griswold
Lobotomized Josh, do you know what it's like when your dad makes a gay joke about you in front of your friends who are also 14? And then.
Josh Arnold
I absolutely do, but yes.
Tom Griswold
Oh, really?
Chick McGee
Okay.
Willie Griswold
I would get that so much. I'd be like, they're already calling me gay constantly.
Josh Arnold
I don't need you doing it in front of them.
Willie Griswold
That's not going to help my case at all.
Christy Lee
You bullied your own kids.
Tom Griswold
My dad was very. Never pass up an opportunity for a good joke, no matter who's.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Tom Griswold
It's going to. Of ruins.
Josh Arnold
And by the end of the very similar philosophy. He was a very tolerant man, of course, but he didn't often say gay. But he would do the. I haven't seen this in a long time. He would let his wrist go very low.
Chick McGee
Oh. He'd look at somebody and go, yeah, right. Do the wrist.
Josh Arnold
If I said something like, oh, yeah, you know, I've got show choir practice. He might look to somebody else and do the limp wrist.
Chick McGee
Oh, well, that's beautiful.
Willie Griswold
We were doing prom, folks, and everyone looks great in their tuxes.
Chick McGee
And you all are dressed in white, I think.
Willie Griswold
No, it's not one of those. We're all just here. We're all in our dresses, in our tuxes. And he goes, all right, everyone smile. And he goes, now hands up.
Josh Arnold
Very gay.
Willie Griswold
All the parents, about half the parents laughed. Two kind of.
Tom Griswold
Oh, gosh, what is that?
Josh Arnold
Right, right, right.
Tom Griswold
Trying to get everybody to chuckle.
Chick McGee
It's a good photo. That was like a mini focus group group. Some people go, hey, go get him, Tom. And others go, this is horrible.
Tom Griswold
Okay, go on. Now, we have a lot to get to today, but I want to remind you of a couple things. Willie G tonight, Louisville, Kentucky, the Louisville Comedy Club. Go check out the show live. Also, Summit City Comedy Club in Fort Wayne with special guest set with Megan Gailey coming this Saturday. And then you brought in a friend of yours, I want to say, in late February of this year.
Willie Griswold
Yeah, Tommy Brennan.
Tom Griswold
Tommy Brennan and I just saw a couple days ago he is going to be one of the new cast members of Saturday Night Live.
Willie Griswold
He did it, everybody. He did it.
Tom Griswold
I'll tell you something funny about this. When I saw the article I started, I just, you know, went down the rabbit hole and I noticed that in every picture of Tommy Brennan, he's wearing the same. What do you call a. Tracksuit? Yeah, kind of like windbreaker. Windbreaker, that's the word I'm looking for.
Chick McGee
For.
Tom Griswold
And so I went and I looked in my phone and when he was here, we took a picture with him. Same windbreaker, same windbreaker. I'm not kidding. It's. If you go to our social media, you can see a picture.
Christy Lee
Maybe that's his comfort blanket.
Tom Griswold
No, I thought it was just kind of funny. I think it's, it's. I'm sure he's decided that's his look and he just looks perfect for snl. But he's a young guy, really good looking guy.
Chick McGee
Hang on a second, Tom. You don't mean you think he might be poor?
Christy Lee
He can't afford anything but the one jacket.
Chick McGee
Is that possible? Just one shabby windbreaker?
Tom Griswold
You know, I hadn't thought of that possibility, but.
Chick McGee
What do you think, Josh? Could he be poor?
Josh Arnold
I don't, I, I don't want to think of something.
Chick McGee
I certainly don't want to suspect that of anyone.
Tom Griswold
He's a very successful young comedian. He could, I just. He has.
Josh Arnold
That'll be great.
Tom Griswold
He has his look.
Willie Griswold
He's got a look.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, we all have our look. And evidently I, I tend to dress the same. In the same stuff pretty much every day.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I'm with, With you.
Tom Griswold
It makes life a lot easier. Yeah, I'm with you. Whatever you say. I know you've got your. Of course, you've got your nice jacket on today.
Christy Lee
That's a great.
Tom Griswold
I thought we would hear a little bit of something from Tommy. Does that sound reasonable? Okay, here he is. He was in our. This is from February of this year. Tommy Brennan. We've learned a few things. You are from St. Paul, Minnesota, Dakota. You're 30 but you look 18. Interesting. Do you have a. I should. A girlfriend. Are you married? What's going on? I'm in a. Yeah, I've got a girlfriend. Just hit a year. All right.
Chick McGee
Oh, you. You've got to get out of that.
Josh Arnold
Hang in there.
Tom Griswold
That second year, we're fighting a lot, so.
Josh Arnold
Oh, okay.
Tom Griswold
We're gonna make it.
Chick McGee
Yeah, it's. It's good. Call her woman a lot.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Chick McGee
And try this one. You're not a. You're just acting like one. How about that?
Tom Griswold
Always say acting like I've thrown that out there.
Chick McGee
Try that.
Tom Griswold
So that's helping.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that's a great line. That always. Did you meet. Did you meet her in a. A traditional manner, or was this one of those Internet online. We did. We met in real life.
Chick McGee
Okay, good.
Tom Griswold
That's good.
Chick McGee
I think Internet might be traditional now.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Sadly. That's so weird. Sadly.
Josh Arnold
But, Tommy, you met yours in real.
Tom Griswold
Life, as you said, met mine in real life. I had gotten off the apps. Yeah. I didn't like the dating apps. I saw my cousin on Tinder.
Chick McGee
Oh, how was that date?
Tom Griswold
Well, yeah, it was. The problem is we. We had to see each other in person then. And then she was like, I saw you, and she was like, what if I accidentally swiped right? I was like, we would have matched balls in your court, Courtney. But no. So I deleted Tinder after that. We met in real life, me and my. At a bar, girlfriend, family reunion. But no, she's a. She's a comic as well. So.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. So we were friends for, like, four years, and then. And then. And then started things up when I moved to New York.
Chick McGee
Cool.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Does she fix your jokes for you? I would say she's the inspiration for some.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, that's a good answer to that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. We get in a fight, and then I walk away after I lose, and then I write it down. I just. It's never worth winning the fight, you know? Have you ever won an argument against your girlfriend or wife and then been like, wow, the vibes in here are great. I'm happy with my behavior. He's crying.
Willie Griswold
I'm calling my boys to celebrate. Yeah, I won this time.
Tom Griswold
She thinks all the points I made were really, really smart. Yeah. There you go. Tommy Brennan. He's going to be on snl.
Willie Griswold
Hell, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Great.
Josh Arnold
Very cool.
Christy Lee
So cool.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Very nice guy.
Josh Arnold
We'll never hear from him again.
Christy Lee
Had he auditioned when he had been in here in February, do you know?
Willie Griswold
I don't think so, but I texted him. I was like, hey, man, congratulations. And then he did text back. It was a nice guy, because I'm.
Josh Arnold
Sure you're getting 1 million of these.
Willie Griswold
Don't even feel the need to. He rules. I'm very happy for him.
Chick McGee
Yeah, he is.
Josh Arnold
He did reply, which is because he replied to me, too. A new phone. Who dis? But I. Yeah, I.
Chick McGee
Very, very nice who this is.
Tom Griswold
Let's see. Now. Look around the room, and I see. Coming up. Oh, we got. Joe Theisman's gonna be our guest. NFL. Great. NFL starts tonight. Comedian Al Jackson will be joining us a little bit later on.
Christy Lee
They have posted a picture of you in your cowboy hat from picture day last night.
Chick McGee
Yesterday.
Christy Lee
Look at that.
Josh Arnold
That picture is amazing.
Christy Lee
That picture is amazing.
Josh Arnold
Are you kidding me with that?
Christy Lee
Right? Tom, who the hell is that guy.
Chick McGee
That looks like Kevin Costner's double?
Willie Griswold
Is that for your book called Corral?
Tom Griswold
Oh, I like that title.
Chick McGee
Corralling the morons and paran. Herding cats. Yeah. Have you. Have you ever.
Josh Arnold
Has there ever been a hotter picture taken at Tom?
Christy Lee
Nope.
Josh Arnold
Come on. Christy doesn't even know what to do with it.
Christy Lee
I know. I shared it to my story, and I just put my boss. I didn't even know what to write.
Tom Griswold
I have that. I have that mean look because I currently have a medical issue that's really putting me in a lot of pain. So if I look like I'm in pain, I am.
Chick McGee
You look at that, and you automatically.
Christy Lee
Think, he's got up a rancho Montana.
Chick McGee
And 12 inches long. You know he is.
Tom Griswold
I didn't think you can tell that from the picture.
Chick McGee
These guys.
Josh Arnold
It looks like you're gonna sell me some low T meds. Just, oh, I want to be that guy.
Christy Lee
Kelly's got to put that on her nightstand.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah, that. That won't happen.
Josh Arnold
That's a great photo.
Tom Griswold
Last night, she had to go run out and do a bunch of stuff. Had to do an airport run and stuff. So I went to. I went to bed early because I'm not really feeling great, and I. And I wake up in the middle of the night, and I. Oh, there she's right next to me. I'm not kidding. It's a large, white golden retriever.
Josh Arnold
So did you stop kissing?
Tom Griswold
He's not supposed to be in the bed. Yeah, he's a little. Mr. Fletcher. Like, what are you doing here? But I didn't. I'm not in any condition to throw him off the bed, so I just go, okay, roll over and let her deal with it. Then I wake up this Morning. There's me, there's Mr. Fletcher, and there's Kelly. So she, she decided I'm too tired to deal with this too, so. And then our nine year old girl was sleeping in the dog bed on the floor and I'm not making any of that up.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, she loves that, doesn't she?
Tom Griswold
She loves that dog bed.
Josh Arnold
Have you gotten her one of the. They have human dog beds.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, we bought a human dog bed.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And it's. She keeps it up in a room, but when she wants to, she drags it downstairs, brings it into our room.
Chick McGee
It's wonderful.
Tom Griswold
And then if she's not in in it, the dog is in it, but she, then occasionally they're both in it.
Willie Griswold
She's a weird little girl.
Tom Griswold
She's very odd. Yeah. I told you. You didn't hear about this scam. So we're, we're.
Willie Griswold
Are the girls scamming you?
Tom Griswold
We're traveling over the weekend and this is brilliant. Hart says to me, what's a good name for a girl dog? You know, I love naming stuff so well, you know, and we were standing in line at the airport, oh, I got like a Kiki or Koki and then asked who your favorite TV people and got come up with all these names. And then she, I finally get. She goes, oh yeah, I like that one. Daddy. Hey, mom, we're getting another dog. What?
Chick McGee
Oh, my God.
Tom Griswold
I didn't agree to that.
Josh Arnold
I was surprised that when you asked who are your favorite TV people, she wanted to name her dog Hannity. She's only, she's only eight. She wants, she wants to start Fletcher and Friends at the house.
Willie Griswold
She thinks it'll be fun late night.
Tom Griswold
I just hope there aren't kids out there there that love that stuff. Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
I mean, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Wouldn't that be just awful? Yeah, you spent your childhood watching Meet the Press. Have some fun. For God's sake, turn the TV off. Don't let them watch that. I don't care what your politics.
Josh Arnold
No, don't let them watch any politics.
Tom Griswold
Oh, God, let them have some fun. Dogs, sleds, skiing, Anything? No. Now the NFL season is starting tonight. Do we have the official music? Yep.
Chick McGee
Well, of course we do. Somewhere. Oh, that's the official music.

Josh Arnold
Okay.
Tom Griswold
And how to avoid getting roids. We'll let you know when we return to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom.
Chick McGee
Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Christy Lee.
Christy Lee
Yo.
Chick McGee
Over there at the news desk, there's Willie Griswold. Hey, Josh. Arnold.
Josh Arnold
I'm about to do something I've never done in my life.
Chick McGee
All right, hold that thought.
Josh Arnold
Okay.
Chick McGee
Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. We're in the o'reilly Auto Parts Store.
Tom Griswold
Hold that thought. We should all. We should all come up with a joke.
Christy Lee
Yeah. What? You've never.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You've just, you've just set yourself up.
Chick McGee
To be like this. You said. What was your introduction?
Josh Arnold
I'm gonna. I'm gonna do something I've never done before in my life.
Tom Griswold
Look at a man and not lust after him.
Willie Griswold
Apologize to a woman.
Josh Arnold
We're on the board.
Chick McGee
I'm gonna say now, this isn't me. This is the format, okay? Wrap up leftovers. See, I don't this is all fair. This is all the same thing.
Willie Griswold
I was going a different route. But still mean, apologize to a woman.
Chick McGee
Yeah, there you go. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
No, I've spent too much time doing that.
Tom Griswold
Christy, you have one.
Christy Lee
Well, I was gonna say not eat this last piece of pizza.
Tom Griswold
All right, I see. I got. Wait a minute, I got one more, one more, one more. It's very obvious. It's. It's a hack, but go ahead. What's the setup again?
Josh Arnold
I'm going to try something I've never done before in my life.
Tom Griswold
Watch a porno to the end.
Chick McGee
Boy, those are. I get sleepy too. Do you?
Josh Arnold
Quite.
Tom Griswold
Quite.
Josh Arnold
Good.
Christy Lee
Does anyone do that?
Willie Griswold
I psychos. Honestly, if you're watching it to the end, there's a problem with you.
Tom Griswold
That does remind me of. Of something I was Talking to my 12 year old about taking tests. I will. This is kind of boring, but I'll try to make it quick. I will never forget this one exam where I was sitting. It was in Mr. Marks's room in junior high school. And they passed out this test. And you know, I sat down and it was kind of a surprise thing and I was really concerned about it. And the first question was, be sure to read the entire test before I of course did, didn't. And I sat there frantically filling it out and I kept seeing people walking up and handing him the test. And of course, if you read the whole thing, the last things was don't fill this out, just bring it up to the front. And that was always a lesson for me. If it says maybe if you follow the instructions.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Tom Griswold
And to this day, as you know, if you know me, I never follow instructions. And I never. I never read manuals.
Christy Lee
No. So you didn't learn a damn thing.
Tom Griswold
No, I didn't. I keep reminding myself, myself. Why don't I remember to do that?
Chick McGee
I follow. I. I have a follow up. This was the hurry up version of your story.
Tom Griswold
Yes. You're welcome. It's a lesson, though, to be learned.
Chick McGee
So anyway, Josh, what are you going to do that you've never done before in your life?
Josh Arnold
Oh, I. I was going dunk this toast into my coffee.
Willie Griswold
Wait a second. Are you sure you're ready for that?
Josh Arnold
I think I'm ready.
Willie Griswold
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
I mean, I've been waiting 47 years.
Christy Lee
You've been talking about this piece of toast for an hour.
Josh Arnold
It's been an excellent pizza.
Tom Griswold
Oh, wait a minute. No, no. You haven't had that piece of toast in your hand for an hour, have you?
Christy Lee
Kind of he toasted it about an hour.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
This is the. This is the longest time food has survived in front of you and ate.
Josh Arnold
It got a little stiff, I'll be honest. So I thought, oh, maybe I'll soften it up here with coffee. So I'm dunking.
Tom Griswold
You're crazy, right?
Josh Arnold
Not. Not many people do this.
Tom Griswold
You're ruining it.
Christy Lee
Yeah. You're getting crumbs in your coffee.
Tom Griswold
You're ruining it.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, there's no reason to do that.
Chick McGee
Yes. No, it's off now. You've ruined your toast and your coffee.
Willie Griswold
It's, like, crunchy and soggy at the same time. It's a texture nightmare.
Josh Arnold
It was a real mistake.

You go out, you can order anything you want. Oh, can I guess?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
A piece of avocado toast.
Josh Arnold
It really is good, though.
Christy Lee
It is good, but that wouldn't be.
Chick McGee
It toasted slightly.
Christy Lee
I use.
Chick McGee
And a virgin avocado.
Willie Griswold
He is being mean. But one time I walked in here, you were eating three Raisinets on a piece of paper.
Christy Lee
Oh, I always have four raisins. I only take four at a time.
Tom Griswold
Oh, four. What a pig. Four Raisinets. I was gonna take an hour at the gym.
Christy Lee
Two eggs over easy, sourdough toast and bacon and hash browns. Crispy bacon, hash brown casserole. I kind of like mine a little limper.
Chick McGee
Mmm. No, that's the wrong way to.
Christy Lee
Don't like crispy bacon.
Chick McGee
Josh, your favorite breakfast.
Josh Arnold
I'm gonna say scrambled eggs, two pieces of bacon, two sausage links.

Christy Lee
Belgian waffle.
Chick McGee
Yeah. Real thick. One over easy, two eggs over easy, and crispy bacon. Man, it was the best.
Tom Griswold
It's nice to rediscover something.
Chick McGee
Yeah, it is.
Tom Griswold
Off the air. I was just saying I'd had a toast for the first time in months over the weekend. It was. This is great. Really. I should do this all the time.
Josh Arnold
It really can be a treat.
Chick McGee
You know how to live, don't you?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Let me ask you something. On your toaster now, do you. Do you have to Push a lever down to get your toast to toast?
Christy Lee
No, I have a toaster. What do you mean? Conventional oven.
Tom Griswold
You don't have to push a lever down.
Chick McGee
No, I just put the toast in and it lowers it by. By itself.
Christy Lee
I don't have a toaster.
Willie Griswold
Can you adjust, like, how toasted it is on your phone?
Chick McGee
Oh, my God. Oh, yeah, yeah, we.
Tom Griswold
Our culture needed that. Yeah. Thank. Thank God I can take my phone to help me make my toast.
Chick McGee
Oh, you don't have one.
Tom Griswold
Is there. Is there. Let me ask you this. Is there a password for your toaster?
Chick McGee
Well, if you count the password to my WI fi, yes.
Josh Arnold
That's incredible, dude.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
You just put a WI FI enabled toaster.
Chick McGee
Well, yeah. It's 2025. It's hammer time. Damn right. Come on, you got to get on this. It's an imac and it's a magnificent. Every piece of toast is perfect.
Tom Griswold
I've never made.
Josh Arnold
I want to hear about it.
Chick McGee
Bagel. Boom. Never burned a piece of toast.
Tom Griswold
I know I don't have.
Christy Lee
Never made toast at your house.
Tom Griswold
Never.
Chick McGee
Toast is toast. Like coffee. It's out there.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Do you own a toaster?
Tom Griswold
Probably, but do I. Is there a toaster in my house?
Willie Griswold
No. Remember one time we wanted to make toaster strudel and then we didn't have a toaster and made in the microwave. And then my friend Eric beat me up and then you walked in the kitchen and he was beating me up because we didn't have a toaster.
Christy Lee
Oh, my God.
Josh Arnold
Because we didn't have a toaster.
Willie Griswold
Yeah. It was a really specific injury.
Chick McGee
Are you in a gang?
Willie Griswold
Me and him are kind of confused.
Christy Lee
Oven.
Tom Griswold
Hey, let me ask you something.
Chick McGee
You know, last time I was here, you didn't have a toaster. Did you learn any?
Tom Griswold
No. You guys convinced me. And I've got one of those. Air. Air.
Christy Lee
Air fryer.
Tom Griswold
Air fryer. That's great. I love it.
Christy Lee
You don't have a toaster oven?
Tom Griswold
I doubt it. I don't know. I never looked around. But that's nice. Everybody's had their nice toaster.
Christy Lee
I want to know what kind of.
Chick McGee
Toaster I'd rather not say on the air.
Josh Arnold
Tom, are you a biscuits and gravy man?
Tom Griswold
No.
Josh Arnold
Oh, interesting.
Chick McGee
Now, do you. Do you look down on biscuits and gravy? Do you consider that pedestrian? Do you consider that white trash?
Tom Griswold
No, but I mean, if you. You eat biscuits and gravy, when you look down, you can't see your penis because you're so fat.
Chick McGee
No, I Don't think that's ever enters into it.
Willie Griswold
Be a special treat.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I mean like once a year.
Josh Arnold
Maybe, but somewhere, some place had the lumberjack breakfast. And I would order it all the time. I forget what it was but. Or where it was, but it was called the lumberjack. And I would get it and it was just a ton of. It was essentially a breakfast buffet served to you. And I would get it and then I went, you know, this meal is appropriate for a lumberjack. I'm not doing. My problem is I'm not doing any of the lumberjack things during the rest of my day. And so it's just. I'm just saving it all in my body. You're not even chopping one tree down.
Chick McGee
Save a whole forest.
Josh Arnold
Like swinging anything.
Willie Griswold
Well, swinging syrup over some pancakes.
Josh Arnold
Making sure you get a good glaze.
Chick McGee
On top of there.
Tom Griswold
I can't. I've had it with the password thing. If your toaster needs a password, I'm out. Everything, everything needs a password.
Josh Arnold
I can't wait to. I will eventually own this toaster. I love toasting things.
Tom Griswold
Don't you have the hot dog toaster?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now explain how that works. It has two slots for buns and then it has four slots. Maybe it's just. I forget. But it has some cylindrical.
Tom Griswold
Cylindrical. Cylindrical slots for. So the hot dogs, do they fit in vertically?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you'd be surprised. They don't drip. Really? They don't. Yeah, everything's good.
Tom Griswold
Wow. That probably impresses the ladies.
Josh Arnold
They are often. I mean, I take them home. My hot dog toaster seals the deal.
Tom Griswold
It does the heavy lift and it does match. I'm sure there's like three hot dogs and three bun holders. I assume it's the.
Chick McGee
Unlike, you know, sometimes the buzz don't match up with the hot dog. Have you not notice this?
Tom Griswold
One of my favorite hack premises of all time.
Chick McGee
It is something, isn't it?
Tom Griswold
That's a good one. Time now to reveal a little bit of history before we get to Christy Lee News.
Chick McGee
Are you kidding?
Tom Griswold
I'm gonna, I'm gonna. I've got a quiz to start things off.
Chick McGee
Time now for today in History. And we have a quiz today to start things off.
Tom Griswold
And it's a.
Chick McGee
It's kind of a two parter, two part quiz. The first part is four.
Tom Griswold
September 1682, this astronomer discovered a comet that would be named after him. Christy, who is it?
Christy Lee

Chick McGee
Harold Hal.
Josh Arnold
That's right, Bill Haley.
Chick McGee
1, 2, 3 o', clock, 4 o'. Clock.
Tom Griswold
Except. Except it is pronounced Hal's comment. Yeah, everybody gets it wrong.
Josh Arnold
I just saw Haley's Comet. She down for that?
Willie Griswold

Chick McGee
Sir Edmund. Sir Edmund.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it. What is. It comes around. Whatever. He's 70 years or something.
Christy Lee

Tom Griswold
Okay, cool.
Willie Griswold
Do we really?
Tom Griswold
Okay, this is an easy one on 1988. Excuse me. 1888.
Chick McGee
Jesus. Can we give this to somebody who can read?
Christy Lee
You got the look.
Tom Griswold
Scott Hanson.
Chick McGee
Oh, no. 18rd, that's right.
Josh Arnold
What if you were replaced on this show by Scott?
Chick McGee
I would never.
Tom Griswold
You know, I understand he's very well versed in sports. This guy patented the first. First roll film camera. This is amazing.
Chick McGee
Oh, it's one of the land. At East.
Tom Griswold

Christy Lee
Yeah, I'm not as dumb as I look.
Willie Griswold
He also possibly. We talk about that.

Josh Arnold
The French.
Tom Griswold
I mean, where did that come from?
Josh Arnold
No, no, they said.
Tom Griswold
Can you go find out about that?
Willie Griswold
Probably the cheese lobby wanted to get introduced into society.
Tom Griswold
Does that work? That work if you say cheese?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, it makes a smile.
Tom Griswold
It does say cheese. No, you're. You didn't say cheese.
Christy Lee
Say cheese.
Josh Arnold
You know, it makes a smile.
Christy Lee
It makes us smile because we laugh because people say say cheese.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. It's such a hack. It's a hack premise.
Josh Arnold
It's because your mouth forms a smile.
Willie Griswold
Yeah, it's the E sound.
Tom Griswold
Go ahead, say cheese.
Chick McGee
Look, if you don't say cheese, when.
Josh Arnold
You go say cheese, people go, cheese, Cheese.
Chick McGee
Cheese.
Tom Griswold
And again with Chick. You can't see his teeth.
Josh Arnold
I saw them just fine.
Chick McGee
You're going to see your teeth. Put them in hand.
Josh Arnold
They're going to be scattered along a curb.
Chick McGee
Me and you and Edward Norton are going outside.

Tom Griswold
I knew it.
Chick McGee
I knew it would. I would be riveted. I'd watch every episode.

Tom Griswold
That'd be a terrific SNL skit.
Josh Arnold
I knew that. Everybody knows that.
Chick McGee
Oh, you're not going to give her the whole money? I should get some of the money.
Willie Griswold
I did know it.
Tom Griswold
You guys. You don't ever hear the name Beatrix. That's a great name.
Chick McGee
Oh, you could go. You can go B. Or you can go Trixie.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Josh Arnold
Beatrix is.
Tom Griswold
That'd be a good name for a dog.
Willie Griswold
Beatrix.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Beatrix.
Chick McGee
There's a character on Call the Midwife Trixie, and her name's Beatrix. You haven't ever watched Call the Mastery the most British show ever, actually, you know, the art of being a midwife is called midwifery.
Tom Griswold
It sounds like a bad smell, doesn't it?
Chick McGee
Midwifery.
Josh Arnold
I love it.
Chick McGee
Perhaps you don't want. You don't have what it takes to practice midwifery.
Christy Lee
You watch this show.

Tom Griswold
Who's the most famous Trixie out there?

Christy Lee
Yes. She's very good.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Never heard of Trixie Mattel?
Willie Griswold
Trixie Mattel. Girlfriends like her. If you've got. I know that sounds crazy to say, but if you like girlfriend, like, oh, my God, look at this funny video.
Christy Lee
I think I saw her. I think I saw her in concert, so to speak.
Willie Griswold
By the way, when I said girlfriends like her, it just sounded like I was lying and calling my boyfriend a girlfriend. Right when I was like, no, actually, all girls know about drag queens.
Tom Griswold
They do now.
Chick McGee
Are you sure this is a girl you're talking about?
Willie Griswold
That's what I was going with.
Tom Griswold
This will get chick angry. In 1950, in 12 newspapers, the comic strip Beetle Bailey debuted.
Josh Arnold
The gentle humor of Beetle.

I'm a huge fan.
Chick McGee
Not one laugh.
Christy Lee
Is he in the army?

Christy Lee
Otto.
Tom Griswold
Otto. You don't hear that? That's. That'd be another. That's a great dog name. Maybe we should get another dog.
Christy Lee
That's not a girl's Name Otto.
Tom Griswold
We can get a dog because we gotta get two.
Christy Lee
Nobody will say, oh, my gosh, your girlfriend just drove off the road.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, no, no, that. Trust me, that one.
Chick McGee
I thought you said. I said she was gonna.
Tom Griswold

Josh Arnold
Oh, news about piles.
Christy Lee
If you don't have them, we have. You may get them. If you don't do this.
Chick McGee
I. You know, they say you should be in the moment. Be here now. You should be grateful. I am grateful that I've never been men affected by hemorrhoids. And I don't know how, because I've. I've. I have a sedentary job.
Tom Griswold
Right.
Chick McGee
Basically very lazy and never had any.
Tom Griswold
Is that what causes roids?
Chick McGee
Well, you can. You said a lot.
Josh Arnold
Truck drivers will get them.

Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick. McGee. Now, we were doing kind of a quiz form of a today in history, and I want to get back to that, but I. Something was bugging me.
Josh Arnold
What's that?
Tom Griswold
And I'll try to make this clear. I was playing the game. I played the game Connections.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Online. It's from. It's. It's sort of like it's along with the same group with World wordle.
Christy Lee
Right.
Tom Griswold
I play it every day, and it's. It's obsessed. It's. I. I'm really.
Christy Lee
There are five words that all connect some way or something.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You have to make these connections, and I'm just really upset about one. I did get it. Yeah. There's four groups.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
And they, you. They, you. They give you all these words. You look at the words, you try to put them into groups of four. It's fairly simple.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
So, but if you get the first three, then you automatically get the last one, obviously, because. Okay, but here's the point. This was, this was one of the answers. Go ahead. And I want to see if anyone knows what this is about.
Chick McGee
Cool.
Tom Griswold
Go for. Said the answer was worn by Earring Magic Ken.
Christy Lee
Earring Magic Ken.
Tom Griswold
Do you know who Earring Magic Ken is?
Christy Lee
I have to be a Barbie doll Ken.
Tom Griswold
That's correct. Oh, but yeah, and it. That was the answer. Oh, the, the clues were earring, mesh shirt, necklace and pleather vest.
Chick McGee
Oh, so it was things worn by Ken. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
You would have gotten that.
Chick McGee
Yeah, I think I did get it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Willie Griswold
Chick wasn't listening until just now.
Chick McGee
He.
Willie Griswold
He kind of nailed it, actually.
Tom Griswold
So what, you were aware of Earring Magic Ken?
Chick McGee
Well, Ken gives it away, kind of. What else would it be?
Christy Lee
Right. Did you think it was? What?
Tom Griswold
No, no, no, no. Ken was the answer. It doesn't tell you. Ken. All the clues were. Were earring, mesh shirt, necklace and pleather vest.
Christy Lee
That's not how you present your wanted it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I know. I was. I didn't. I should have given it.
Chick McGee
Oh, well, it would have been more difficult.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
It would have been my time. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Did you get it, or was it just the last one?
Chick McGee
I think I did get it, but you're right. I think it was the last one. The purple one.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that. That's just A. Who would know what that. Apparently, that was like a. In the 60s, they released a Ken doll that became a gay icon. Huh.
Chick McGee
I'm not aware of that either.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, there's a whole story about it, but then it was pulled off the shelves and. What a weird clip. I didn't think anybody would know that. Well, back to our birthdays. This is a tougher one. Christian, that was.
Willie Griswold
That you just wanted to kind of complain about.
Josh Arnold
That's all that was.
Tom Griswold
I want someone to justify that.
Willie Griswold
Do you think that Will Shorts listens to this and he's gonna change wordle and change Sudoku, change connections by what you say on this?
Tom Griswold
Well, I. Yeah, he's the editor. Next time I see Will Shorts, I'm telling him for the 50th time the abbreviation for microphone is M I, C. Okay? Not M I, K, E. They got it wrong again two weeks ago. Come on, Will, get it right. I love that guy.
Josh Arnold
Life's a.
Tom Griswold
Okay. All right. Now, this is.

Chick McGee
Billy boy.
Christy Lee
Doesn't Peugeot have a lion as their logo or something?

Christy Lee
I think it did.
Josh Arnold
It may have recharged.
Christy Lee
The kids knew it then.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that's. It's. And it's weird now how stuff is recharging yeah. Particularly because of television shows. A bunch of stuff recharted because of Stranger Things.
Christy Lee

I don't. I. It's crushed ice and I hate crushed ice.
Josh Arnold
I hate the way you live.
Chick McGee
I do too.
Christy Lee
Doesn't your fancy ass refrigerator freezer make ice?
Tom Griswold
No, but it's.
Chick McGee
Can't you dial up the. Are you trying to tell me that you're. Your refrigerator. You have. You can't dial a specific type of ice to be dispensed?
Tom Griswold
If you can. I don't know how to do it. I go get gasoline right by Willie's school.
Josh Arnold
Oh, gasoline.
Tom Griswold
And then by my school where you used to go to high school.
Willie Griswold
The girls go there right now. I've been there since 2011.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Get a bag of ice, couple lottery tickets and fill her and fill it up.
Chick McGee
I go out there by Willie's school.
Willie Griswold
Do you go to the Gas station where the guy, the blind guy used to sell brooms at that gas station.
Chick McGee
I love that.
Willie Griswold
That's the gas station they bought cigarettes at for the first time.
Christy Lee
Man, what a nice.
Josh Arnold
Used to steal brooms from the blind guy.
Chick McGee
You resell them.
Tom Griswold
The blind guy, he's no longer with us, sadly.
Josh Arnold
Oh, he is. Cuz he used to sell him by a post office.
Christy Lee
Yes, he did, by the post.
Tom Griswold
And he was very grumpy. But I.
Chick McGee
Well, he got beaten with a. I would.
Tom Griswold
I would still buy his brooms.
Christy Lee
I bought his brooms too, but the paint always would come off. Did you notice that?
Tom Griswold
I still have one complaining about blind guy's broom. That's Adam. I shall have one of his brooms. Should I put it up on. Should I put it up on ebay for those that collect blind guy brooms?
Chick McGee
Sir, sir, can I. Sir.
Tom Griswold
Just take a look at this?
Chick McGee
The paint on your brooms comes off. You know what, though?
Tom Griswold
Chick is right. Whenever you see a blind person, talk louder. Right, Chick?
Josh Arnold
Don't blind people say that's like the biggest, most annoying thing? Yes, people yell at them.
Chick McGee
I'm sorry, you can't. You can't see.
Tom Griswold
Right?
Willie Griswold
And in reality, you should whisper to them because their. Their other senses get enhanced. Like the Daredevil. If you're familiar, let me show you.
Christy Lee
Wear deodorant because they can smell.
Chick McGee
Let me ask you something. What's the favorite song you play on the piano? All blind people can play the piano, right?
Tom Griswold
Okay. Well, yeah. So Saturday morning I'll get some more tickets and get some. Get my ice and fill up the car with gasoline.
Chick McGee
All right, so now will you also get toast? Toast and coffee?
Tom Griswold
No. Okay, I'll get coffee.
Josh Arnold
Asked and answered.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Willie Griswold
Will that be asked?
Tom Griswold
I told you I'd toast for the first time this year over the weekend.
Christy Lee
Meat. You know that.
Chick McGee
You're down to like no food, aren't you? I think that's a noble cause.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You know, you got to live long.
Willie Griswold
He's eating more salmon than a bear.
Tom Griswold
You don't see. You don't see old fat people. You ever notice that? Well, yeah.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Happy Humphrey didn't live to be 70. Ever notice that weighed 450 to died at 32. What a shock. Coming up, comedian L. Jackson.
Chick McGee
Yeah. I'm guessing you're not just randomly invited to funerals.
Tom Griswold
Well, that's what I went to. I'm surprised they could carry the casket. Coming up, Joe Theisman, NFL. Great. We'll be nice to join.
Chick McGee
Joe.
Tom Griswold
We're in the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show. Thanks for listening.
Chick McGee
Portions of the show brought to you by Champion Windows. This is the Bob and Tom Show. Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. At the SILAC Insurance news desk, it's Christy Lee. Hey, Willie Griswold's here. Hey, man, there's Josh Arnold.
Josh Arnold
Hi there.
Chick McGee
Ace Cosby.
Josh Arnold
Howdy.
Chick McGee
We are in the Orion Auto Parts studio. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick Magee. Now, a couple things happening here. We're going to be talking to NFL great Joe Theisman coming up in a few minutes, and I believe we're going to hook up at this point with. There he is. It's. It's Al Jackson.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Wearing the black hat.
Chick McGee
Cowboy hat.
Tom Griswold
The black cowboy.
Al Jackson
My lead in Joe Theisman. Like, you don't. That's like such a letdown. Like, we got Joe Theisman coming up, up. But first is a black man in his living room.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, sorry about that. I didn't mean it to be that way.
Al Jackson
I saw your. I saw your thirst trap cowboy hat pick.
Tom Griswold
I. I have the cowboy hat right here. Do you want me to. You want to see it, Al? Yes, sir.
Willie Griswold
It's weird. It made me say a sentence I've never said in my life, which is, oh, my dad looks so hot in that picture. That's a sentence I didn't think I was ever going to say, Willie.
Al Jackson
Okay, your dad is a zaddy.
Tom Griswold
What do you think, Al?
Chick McGee
Oh, my God.
Christy Lee
Oh, look at that.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Al Jackson
Yes, yes. That.
Tom Griswold
I got to wear that. My headphones on upside down.
Christy Lee
You were meant to wear that.
Al Jackson
Do they make headphones? There are. There have been country and western stations since the beginning of radio. They have to make headphones.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, they do.
Christy Lee
They do.
Al Jackson
Do they really?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's like the old earbuds with a cord. Yeah, that's how they go.
Al Jackson
Okay, now, how comfortable are you in that hat? Are you in that like you're putting it on and taking it off? Or is this like, when are you gonna be in the. This is what I'm wearing all day. I'm going to the grocery store with this. I'm picking the kids up with this. Like, when is it going to be.
Tom Griswold
It's my dog walking hat.
Willie Griswold
No, that's it.
Christy Lee
You only wear it when you walk the dog. Well, I bet it's hard to ride a bike on that with that on.
Tom Griswold
Let me put my headphones back on, Al. My dermatologist told me to wear hats that cover the tops of my ears because I'm having some. I'm having issues with too much sun and basil cells. It's too boring to explain, But I got to get top of my ear one of them.
Chick McGee
Are you worried that you don't want people to think you've just. You just want to start wearing cowboy hats? You have to come up with this extrapolated.
Tom Griswold
It's not an excuse. I'm not.
Chick McGee
Explanation.
Tom Griswold
I'm like, josh, I speak the truth. Truth. Why don't you just own it and.
Al Jackson
Become a full time. Because.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Al Jackson
Look, I feel like. And Chick, back me up on this. There's an age that every man gets to where you get to decide if you're going to wear a certain hat. Like, some guys do it with the. The captain's hat. Yeah, you're just like, once you're like 66 and retired, you're like, this guy just always has a captain's hat on, Even at happy hour.
Tom Griswold
That's the look Chick wants me to go with. I'm not going to do that.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Al Jackson
The captain's hat. You have to drink a lot to own that hat.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Al Jackson
So there's no sober captain's hat.
Tom Griswold
Guys, I've been told if you're gonna wear a cowboy, you need to wear the boots.
Christy Lee
Oh, do you have boots, too?
Tom Griswold
I. I don't. I. I don't think I'm gonna go that route. But I love the hat, though.
Chick McGee
Look. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
What about. And I'd also like to get a pickup truck. I've always wanted a pickup truck.
Chick McGee
Absolutely. Have you.
Al Jackson
Have you driven in one lately?
Tom Griswold
It's.
Al Jackson
It's pickup trucks. As soon as you get in the cab and you hit the gas, you're like. You feel the power. Like, I'm a. I'm a person. I love to drive. And like a pickup truck. It's like you. You kind of like, sit up because you're like, oh, this is like a v. A machine. They're like, serious. You should get one.
Chick McGee
Well, with the hat. Not only that. Luxurious tom pickup trucks.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I know. Goodness gracious. They didn't have a suburban. We went to rent one and they. So we ended up with a pick truck. My girls loved it. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. But I explained to them, well, there's only the one back seat. If your friends come, they're gonna have to be clinging to the truck bed back there.
Christy Lee
We all grew up that way. They don't allow it anymore. Sadly.
Tom Griswold
Sadly.
Christy Lee
Oh, it was fun to ride in the back of the pickup truck.
Chick McGee
Oh, sure.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, you're right.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Particularly when you got t boned and the kids bodies just flew across.
Josh Arnold
Never happened to me, so it was fun.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Chick McGee
Didn't you say you knew a guy who had a dog jumped out of the pickup truck when they were moving?
Tom Griswold
I do, I do, I do, I do. Yeah.
Christy Lee
My dog jumped out of my car. It was moving, so it was.
Tom Griswold
It was on i4 in Orlando. You're familiar.
Christy Lee
A little different.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
I can't tell you how fast I'd jump out of a car if you were driving, I can tell you that it was.
Tom Griswold
It was an Irish setter. Not the. Not the brightest breed apparently, but a cool dog.
Al Jackson
How'd that work out for the dog?
Tom Griswold
Let's just say I'm not going to tell you the end of the story. Story. But Irish setters are beautiful.
Christy Lee
Yes, they are.
Tom Griswold
I don't know. This one was really stupid, obviously.
Christy Lee
Maybe just wanted to chase a rabbit.
Tom Griswold
Well, yeah, from. In any event, the function of this program is for Al to educate me in the world of the street with the latest in street lingo. Al, what have you got for me today?
Al Jackson
Tom, I think this lingo is going to go great with your new look. I think you need to embrace it. You know, I. I want one day for you to be able to use this word in your everyday life. And Tom, that word is trill.
Tom Griswold
Trill. T, R, I, L, L. Yes, sir.
Al Jackson
What does that mean?
Tom Griswold
Well, in music it means like. Like if you're on a clarinet, a trill is like.
Chick McGee
Well explained.
Tom Griswold
Is that correct? I mean like a flute will trill extended note. No, no, no. Like a, like an up and like you're moving your fingers real quick. Quick. On a flute.
Josh Arnold
You also trill your tongue when you certain Spanish words.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, really? Is that what the teal day means?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
So is trill. What context are we talking about it?
Al Jackson
Al, I don't want to give it.
Tom Griswold
Away, but is it short? Is it short like, like Riz is? No. Okay. Because I know that one now.
Chick McGee
You know Riz now?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Are you using it all the time?
Tom Griswold
Never.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Like Al has a lot of Riz, meaning he's a charismatic guy. But when I say, when I say it, it sounds like he has a venereal disease. When I say Al has a lot of Riz, it sounds like he's got the clap.
Josh Arnold
Al is an Ohio Riz. They're kind of off. A little weird.
Al Jackson
Yes. But like it's likable.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Al Jackson
Like it's like, you don't know why, but, like, this guy is charming, even though, like, they shouldn't be. It's just like, oh, he's got a weird thing where everybody likes him, even though he's not traditionally, like, you know, charming, unconventional, charm.
Josh Arnold
Interesting.
Tom Griswold
So. So where we get back to Trill. Is it a smaller part of a larger word that's been.
Al Jackson
No.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Willie Griswold
It's not short for ventriloquist, if that's what you're asking.
Josh Arnold
I went to a Trill convention.
Chick McGee
I mean, I went to a Trill convention. A lot of.
Tom Griswold
Lot of intact hymens.
Chick McGee
It was a.
Willie Griswold
This might help. I have a question for Al that might be a clue. Al, are you familiar in beautiful Boulder, Colorado, on Pearl street, there's a weed shop called Trill Dispensary. It used to be my favorite dispensary. Does that help?
Al Jackson
No. But I am in Boulder this weekend performing, and I will go and take a picture and send it into the show.
Willie Griswold
All right. Very cool. That help at all, dad?
Tom Griswold
So Trill must. Is it a. So it's a drug reference? No. No. Oh, okay. Wow.
Josh Arnold
Oh, no. It didn't help. Will he just. Money.
Willie Griswold
It really didn't help at all.
Tom Griswold
Is it in any way related to something that is thrilling?
Josh Arnold
Oh, like Shoot to Trill.
Al Jackson
That would actually be a good spin off.
Chick McGee
Shoot to Trill.
Tom Griswold
Does anyone have any idea?
Christy Lee
I have no idea.
Josh Arnold
I don't.
Chick McGee
Yeah. No.
Al Jackson
Willie, you don't know?
Willie Griswold
No, I was. We would use. It's like. It's as like a sub for chill. Honestly, like, it's. That's so Trill. Something like that. It was just one of those words like steezy or just cool. It was one of those subs.
Al Jackson
Yeah. Like, the way that I've always heard it used. And like, I. I think it's one of those words that may have started one way and then went out of fashion, and then when it came back, it had a different meaning. But Trill is, like, kind of the. The. Like the combination of, like. I don't want to say true and real just because that sounds like it is, but it's just like it's. It's like a. A way to say that something's legit. Like, oh, we're gonna go to this party.
Tom Griswold
My.
Al Jackson
My boy Willie G throwing is gonna be Trill.
Tom Griswold
Like, all right.
Al Jackson
It's just like.
Tom Griswold
It's.
Al Jackson
It's like it's been minted or certified as being, like, a legitimate thing.
Christy Lee
It's been approved.
Chick McGee
True.
Tom Griswold
Wow.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Oh, that's.
Tom Griswold
That's interesting. I would never have guessed that.
Al Jackson
All right, so, Tom, can we hear you use it in a sentence, please?
Tom Griswold
Let's see now. So it's got to be something that's legit. Coming up all fall on this program, Chick McGee will be doing his sports picks. And if you follow them and bet on them every week, you're going to end up a big winner. Trill.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Willie Griswold
That was good. I thought you were trillionaire or something, but. No, that was nice.
Chick McGee
I thought you were going to mess it up. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
How did I do? Well, good.
Al Jackson
You got it in right there at the end.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah. And you notice. You notice I did use it in a sense. I just stopped.
Willie Griswold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And then just said it.
Josh Arnold
Oh, it was as natural.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah. It just floed right out of there.
Chick McGee
I thought. I thought Tupac was in the room.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You know, the same way I. I end most of my phrases by saying true, dad.
Chick McGee
Yeah, you do.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Oh, Al, we got to say goodbye. You're gonna be in Boulder this weekend. Am I getting this right?
Al Jackson
Yes, I'll be in Boulder this weekend. And I got some gigs with Willie G coming up in December in Syracuse and at the Dayton Funny Bone. So check us out if you're in that area. So, yeah, that's what's up. I love y'.

Thank you very Much Chick. Coming up, Joe Theisman will be our special guest. We are in the aurelioto part studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Chick McGee
Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk. Hello, Willie Griswold.
Tom Griswold
Hey man.
Chick McGee
Josh Arnold. Hi, Ace Cosby. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick McGee. I know you're a great mood because the NFL season is about to start.
Chick McGee
Our long national nightmare is finally over.
Tom Griswold
So we thought we'd actually check in with someone that knows what they're talking about. Rarity on this program, it is the great Joe Theisman joining us via satellite. Hi Joe. That's a great looking room you're in. Is that your house?
Chick McGee
Oh yeah, that's.
Joe Theisman
Yeah, that's one of them.
Chick McGee
Atta boy.
Willie Griswold
All right, that's awesome.
Joe Theisman
Before I go any further, you know I love Chick, but Christy, it's so great to talk to you again.
Christy Lee
Oh, well, thank you, Joe.
Joe Theisman
So long since we've had a chance to say hello and of course everybody else there but you know.
Tom Griswold
I feel like I'm watching the Gilligan's island theme and the rest.
Joe Theisman
And the rest of the crew.
Tom Griswold
Hey Joe, when you, when you watch games, do you like to watch by yourself so you can focus on them or do you have people around you that keep going? Hey Joe, what'd you think of that, Joe? Huh? Is that a good play? Joe?
Chick McGee
Go.
Joe Theisman
Actually, my wife and I watch it. Robin and I watch it together pretty much. I'm not big going into sports bars unless I go down to my restaurant in Alexandria. I'll sit around, but I don't really get a chance to watch a lot. You have to walk around and visit with people, which is great, but I sort of like just Robin and I watching it and she screams and yells at the TV and I question everything that everybody says. Why did you say that? You missed that? You saw where that receiver lined up. You know he closed the split down. You know they're going to run an out route. Why don't you tell me as that. So I'm, I'm the, I'm the announcer's critic, I guess you could say sometimes.
Tom Griswold
What are your thoughts right off the bat on some of the changes in the NFL, including the, the chain gang thing, etc. Etc.
Joe Theisman
It was eventually going to come, I think, you know, they're, they're working continually to make it better of fan experience, more accurate as far as that goes. There's There's a degree that's you're not going to be able to see the ball sometimes. I think that was one of the issues. But I'm curious to see how this is going to work out. I think it was eventually going to come because we see more and more technology coming into the game as it is. And I think it's a good idea because we've seen, like, you know, it's been this close to being a first down, and it all really depends on where the official wants to put their foot.
Tom Griswold
Not.
Joe Theisman
Not that it's their fault, but, you know, the accuracy element of it really wasn't quite there. And so, you know. But I feel sorry for all those people that were on the chain gang now that are going to lose their job jobs now.
Tom Griswold
Do you ever see any of the old referees from back in the day? Do they. Do they. Do they ever come to the reunions and were you on pretty good terms with any of them?
Joe Theisman
I. I was. I mean, you scream and yell at them, but then they laugh at you. So I guess you could call that good terms a little bit. Like your show.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's right.
Joe Theisman
People screaming. Everybody laughs. Everybody.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Joe Theisman
No, it's. Every now and then you see him. But not. Not a lot of the officials, most of them had other jobs.
Josh Arnold
Jobs.
Joe Theisman
Most of them still do have other jobs because, you know, the pay isn't great for officials, and they're in a very difficult situation. You know, now everything they do is scrutinized from the camera angle. So if somebody makes a call and they miss, it's like in baseball, you know, you've got that square that everybody. They bring it up after the umpires made a call and the ball is outside or inside. It was a strike. It wasn't a strike. You know, we're moving more and more towards technology and taking the human element out, which I'm not a really big fan of. I still think, you know, all of it, although I've been affected by human error as far as officials making calls. But, you know, it's like they say, it's part of the game.
Tom Griswold
Do you. Do you remember specific times you were robbed? Like a terrible call.
Chick McGee
Kidding me.
Tom Griswold
Very specific.
Joe Theisman
One specific. Against the St. Louis Cardinals. At that time, they were the St. Louis Cardinals. E.J. jr hit me late. He was a linebacker.
Josh Arnold
Theirs.
Joe Theisman
He hit me late. It was a game at RFK Stadium, and Ben Dr. Was the referee, I believe. And so he hits me really late. I turned around and I started screaming at Ben. I Said, for crying out loud, you know, I got rid of the ball. You know, I was standing there, you know, he knocked the living daylights out of me. Why don't you just throw the flag? He said, joe, you can sit and argue with me all day, but the clock's ticking. I'll give you a five yard penalty for delay a game if you don't get back in the puddle.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
But you still send him a Christmas card.
Joe Theisman
Yeah, I still remember it very specifically.
Tom Griswold
Oh, that's, that's so funny. What do you think about the, the state of college football with the, all the money flowing in? Do you.
Joe Theisman
It's a disaster. It's a disaster. It's been destroyed. College football does not exist anymore.
Chick McGee
Yep.
Joe Theisman
College athletics don't exist anymore. What it is, it's collegiates playing professional ball. That's all it is. And you know, and now it's seeping in in certain states of approved high schools to be able to compensate. It's really, I'm pretty sure that the Congress is going to step in pretty soon. I really do. I believe that something's coming down the road to try and stem the tide of this madness that we see. Now. I'm not saying that, you know, there isn't some type of possible compensation that could be given to people. Not at the high school level, I don't believe that at all. But at the collegiate level. Okay, okay, I'll relent in that area. I had a, what I thought was a pretty good solution a long time ago, well, not so long ago, about four or five years ago, is if everybody's clamoring about wanting a piece of the jersey sales, you know, the, the university, the program, football program makes so much money. What they forget is the football program funds so many other aspects of the university, both educational and athletic. So I said put, take, take a, let's say it's jersey sales all started really with, with Trevor Lawrence down at Clemson.
Josh Arnold
You're.
Joe Theisman
Well, you're not getting a piece of your jersey sales. Okay, fine, we'll give you the same deal we give the NFL players, we'll give you 10% of, of the net sales and you, we'll put that in a trust for you. And when you leave school, the money's yours. If you want to leave early, it's yours. You want to go the full term, it's yours. But that's your money and we'll put it in a trust for you. And that way you somewhat impre. Protected the integrity of what college football was before, for. And it's a, it's a slippery slope because there are young guys out there that, you know, the, the families that raise them, the, you know, they need the money. Okay, I, I can see that. So like I said, it's a, it's a very slippery slope when you get into it. But I, I think that with the portal and, and here's the portal, guys, this is the one that drives me crazy, is, you know, some committee sat around and decided on the portal in college football.
Chick McGee
Football.
Joe Theisman
Wasn't there anybody in that room that said, well, wait a second, we have two portal dates. One occurs in the middle of the college football playoffs. The other occurs in the middle of the NCAA basketball tournament. Don't you think that that would be a stupid time for players just to leave?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Joe Theisman
Wouldn't somebody, wouldn't somebody at whatever table they were sitting at say, maybe that's not such the best time timing for us to be able to do that? And I think that's going to change too. I think they're going to take that down to one date so that you can declare for the portal as opposed to two. So we, you know, changes are coming.
Tom Griswold
We're speaking with Joe, Joe Theisman, and I didn't mean to interrupt. Joe. Sorry, I. On a much, much lighter note, I'll often say to a comedian, was there a particular time you were on stage where suddenly everything worked for you and you realize, okay, I can do this this. Was there a particular time in your college career where you went, okay, this is going to work? I, I've got this. Were you, were you like nervous going in or were you just so great from high school on, you knew it was going to happen?
Joe Theisman
The reason I'm laughing is because I've been considered somewhat cocky. You know, for me, it's like, it's like, just give me the ball. I can do it. Just let me have the ball. Let me go do this. Let me go do my thing. That kind of a thing.
Tom Griswold
Let's it call. Great.
Joe Theisman
No, I was actually, it was my sophomore year, the seventh game of the season. Terry Hanr got hurt. He was our quarterback, Heisman Trophy candidate. There were three seniors on the team. Bob Belden, Cole o'. Brien. We just lost Kohi, God bless him, and myself and say, Bob Belden, Terry Coley and myself. I was the sophomore. Those were three seniors. Terry gets hurt and Eric comes to me, he says, you're up. And that's, you know, that's sort of a, a defining moment in your life because now you either have to get yourself mentally ready to play football and play at a level where, you know, two years prior to that they won the championship in 1966. So now it's 1968, basically the same team and all of a sudden I'm a sophomore quarterback. And if, you know, I've said this all the time. If you don't believe in who you are, who's going to believe in you? And so, you know, for me it was, that was sort of the, the moment that, you know, I made the decision that, hey, I can do, do this. I can, I can do this.
Tom Griswold
Wow, that's great.
Joe Theisman
I worked hard and I can do it.
Tom Griswold
Did it go well right from the get go? Oh, yeah.
Joe Theisman
We scored 49, I think in the first half and that'll count.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, we're done.
Joe Theisman
It went, it went pretty well through my, through the college career.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Do you have, do you have.
Chick McGee
He finished second in the Heisman Trophy. Okay. Was it Plunkett?
Joe Theisman
Thanks, Chick.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Joe Theisman
No, Jim Plunkett.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I just, I remember Hanratty and Seymour on the COVID of Sports Illustrated.
Chick McGee
You don't remember Theisman and Gatewood? Come on. The other ones. Yeah, the other ones. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But it's like Brewer and Shipley, Hanrandy and Seymour Crosby still snatching Young. They all go together. Joe Theisman is our guest.
Chick McGee
But Terry didn't do that well. And didn't. Wasn't he drafted by the Steelers and did not do that well?
Joe Theisman
Terry spent his entire career with the Steelers. Yeah, he played a fair amount of football at different times. Yeah, he was, it was a very. He was the guy they went to when things went a little crazy.
Chick McGee
He didn't win the super bowl, if that's what you're asking, Chick. That's what is what I'm asking.
Tom Griswold
Thank you, Chick. We have to. He. He talks to himself all morning long, Joe. It's sad.
Chick McGee
Joe, you have never, you have never told these guys a story about where you were almost drafted. You almost were sent to play with Miami Dolphins and you could have been a part of that undefeated team. Can you tell Tom what, what happened there?
Joe Theisman
Yeah, I, I am I thinking I was intelligent enough to be able to do my own contract. I didn't have an agent represent me, which was not a good idea at the age of 21. You make stupid. Not stupid decisions, but you make impulsive decisions. And so I decided to negotiate my own contract. I flew down to Miami, I drafted in the fourth round. I was their third Pick because they had to give up the first round pick to the Baltimore Colts because Coach Shula left Baltimore to go to Miami.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Joe Theisman
Lie down. I meet with Mr. Robbie. Their general manager was having surgery, so I met with the owner, and he said to me, what do you want? You'll love these numbers. I said, I want 35, 45, and $55,000.
Chick McGee
Wow.
Joe Theisman
And I want a $35,000 signing bonus, broken down 12, 12, and 11. He said, wow. You know, we sort of reserved that for our second round picks. And I'm thinking, okay. But then he said, fine, you got it. I flew back to South Bend, and the. The clause regarding my bonus, they had me paying it back if I didn't show up in any of those three years. I said it was wrong. And we haggled for a while, back and forth, back and and forth. In the meantime, I got a call from Leo Cahill, the coach of the Toronto Organ. I says, fly up to Toronto. We want to make you an offer. Flew up there, they made me an offer. 50, 50, 50, 50 us and then. And so I signed. I said, but if you leave the country, it's off the table. I signed the contract, flew back to South Bend. Eric calls me Eric Par was my coach, who was my consultant, whom I never consulted. He said, what in heaven's name have you done? I said, I signed with the Argonauts. He said, I know Shul is on a plane right now, and he's coming up here. So he flew to South Bend, read me the riot act, you know, I wound up spending three wonderful years in Toronto. Broke only one bone up there in 1972, and that was that. Miami went undefeated in the Super Bowl. It's funny how life runs in cycles. For example, you know, Miami beats Washington to be undefeated in the Super Bowl. So seven, we wind up playing the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl 17 and beating Coach Shula.
Chick McGee
Y.
Joe Theisman
Then we wind up then in broadcasting. See, people don't realize I broadcast Super Bowl 19 with Don Meredith and Frank Gifford.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Joe Theisman
I replaced O.J. in the booth.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Joe Theisman
And that was a game between The San Francisco 49ers and the Miami Dolphins in. In Palo Alto, California. So Coach Shula has seen me three times, and it hasn't gone very well. I'm really excited to see me.
Tom Griswold
All right.
Chick McGee
Right.
Tom Griswold
Graduate of John Carroll University. Very fun. Shula Jesuit College in Cleveland.
Chick McGee
Hey, we're real quick. What do you think about the. The kid from Colorado coming out and he's declared by gosh, Travis Hunter, he's going to play both ways. I mean is that a thing that can be done ever? Especially nowadays?
Joe Theisman
It can be done, but not at a. On a full time chick. I mean, I mean Travis has a terrific defensive back, terrific wide receiver. You're Talking about about 160, 150 plays a game.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Joe Theisman
His body's not going to hold up for 17 weeks. Even as wonderful as he is, as terrific an athlete as he is, your body's just going to go through wear and tear. I think he'll play some in particular instances on offense and I think he'll play probably predominantly on the defensive side and then just move them over to offense. It'd be of kind because you've got a lot. Not that he's incapable of learning the plays. I think he's mentally very able to handle all that stuff. It's just that the nuances are such that it takes time to learn. Like I said, the biggest thing is going to be body wear and tear. He's certainly capable of doing it, but I just don't see him being a full time guy on either. On both sides of the ball at the same time.
Tom Griswold
Joe Theisman, it's always a great pleasure. By the way. Joe is a very fine speaker. If you've got an organization looking for something, something. How do they find Joe Theisman? If they want to have him come and give a talk Joe.
Joe Theisman
They can log on to Joe TheIsman.com and we have places to get a hold of me there.
Tom Griswold
Okay, perfect. Highly recommend. It's always a great pleasure. I always appreciate your taking the time to talk to us. Do you want to give, do you want to give us like a top three picks for who's going to win this year?
Joe Theisman
You know, I still think you have to look at the top of the thing. Philadelphia. I think Washington was knocking on the door last year year in the AFC I Kansas City's still going to be a tough out. We know Baltimore with Lamar Jackson is going to be a tough one and Josh Allen in Buffalo is going to make it difficult. You know, Joe Burrow is, you know, they did something different in Cincinnati. They played their starters during the preseason which Zach hadn't done before. Hopefully they'll get off to a better start because they always finish strong. They just struggled early. So those are the teams I think that'll be knocking on the door.
Tom Griswold
Okay. Yes or no question. Do you care about who plays halftime at the super bowl poll?
Chick McGee
Oh, the, the, the Rock and roll D Entertainment no, that was a quick no.
Tom Griswold
That was a quick no. Thank you, Joe. It's always a great pleasure. Thank you so much, sir.
Joe Theisman
Great being with you all.
Tom Griswold
Take care.
Josh Arnold
Thanks, Joe.
Tom Griswold
Oh, God. He knows what he's talking about. That scares me.
Chick McGee
That's seven right there.
Tom Griswold
I just love the fact that he said he was really cocky. He went out there and then, oh yeah, we scored 49. Whatever it was. I guess you're pretty good at that.
Chick McGee
He was very good.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. But we all had those moments. He proceed. Guys like Joe probably. He was probably the best athlete in his high school, of course, was always really good.
Chick McGee
You know who his wide receiver was in high school? Who? Drew Pearson.
Tom Griswold
No kidding.
Chick McGee
Who played for the Cowboys.
Tom Griswold
Not the Columbus Washington Post.
Chick McGee
No, original number 88. Yeah.
Tom Griswold

Willie Griswold
Said that same moment on a football field where I realized that it wasn't for me. You know, I got pancaked. I'm on my ass and I go, I'm gonna go play in the pet band.
Josh Arnold
That's just as important, those moments.
Tom Griswold
Sure it is. Yeah. Defining.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. There's some comedians we know that should have said, you know something? This isn't for me.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I'm sitting right here.
