John Boy and Billy, what you just said is one

even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought.

great big sip of old Stan's data ade any tankers
at the moment, apparently no one is thirsty. But I've
only worked my way through the room five times. But
I'll wear them down, dismantled their defense, erode their reluctance
to deconstruct their denials.

Speaker 19 (16:06):
If you will. I am a patient man, Jan Boy,
I am a very veritable peragan perseverance. What a paragan
perseverance this Christmas season? I will not be denied.

I requested, right here is what Brian did at a
hunch Fell, Alabama yesterday at the word he word.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
All right, Lake Bama, you tell him about Brian. Here
you go.

Speaker 14 (33:21):
The big metal door opened for just a second, and
a cold, bracing wind rushed down the long hallway like
a greyhound chasing a rabbit. The mild temperatures of fall
had finally given way to the chill of winter, and
the days were as flat and gray as the paint
on the walls. He sat up on his bed and
stretched his worn joints, ached from the temperature, creaking like

(33:43):
rusty hinges. Oh how he missed the feel of the
warm sun on his face. But he hadn't seen that
in a while. The only thing he had to look
at were the bars that kept him prisoner. He got
up and strolled around his small room. It was part
of his routine, and something he'd done every day for well.

(34:03):
He couldn't remember how long. He let out a loud
sigh and sat back on his bed. Nothing really mattered
much anymore, other than eat and sleep. What he did
most was think. He wondered how he ever came to
find himself in this situation. He didn't remember for a
certainty why he was here. Whatever he did, it must

(34:25):
have been pretty bad. He missed being free. When he
was young, he and his brothers ran like the wind,
played in the big pond, tried to catch the chickens.
Every day was joyful. Those were the good old days.
But those memories were dimming by the day, but he
did remember that once upon a time he had a

(34:46):
family that loved him. He even had a name, but
it had been so long he couldn't recall. Everyone just
called him Old Timer. He heard familiar footsteps on the
cold concrete morning, Old Timer. It was Andy, the new guard.
He liked Andy much more than the last guy. Andy

(35:09):
was a bright spot in his day. Got your breakfast,
Old Timer, and something special. Andy placed a big square
of cornbread on his dish. My wife made sure to
see that you got this while it was still warm.
Eat up, Old Timer. The chow here was passable, but
Andy's wife put them to shame. Fried chicken pot roast hamburgers.

(35:30):
It was against the rules, but that didn't keep Andy
from delivering the goods. Christmas is tomorrow. Get ready for
something special, and off he went. The sun was getting
low in the sky, and Old Timer awoke to the
sound of his cell door opening. He sat up, surprised.
It was Andy. Hey, old Timer, you ready. Old Timer

(35:52):
stood up and watched Andy hold the door open. What
was happening. You're coming home with me, spend Christmas with
me and my family. It sounded good, but Old Timer
was skeptical, but what did he have to lose. He
tentatively followed Andy down the hall. He was certain this
was just a joke, but the farther they got, the

(36:13):
more excited he became. Then the door opened. He was
outside the walls for the first time in years, and
right on cue, the great clouds parted and the sun
hit Old Timers squarely in the face. He stopped dead
in his tracks and soaked it in. Come on, old Timer,
my wife will be mad if we're late. Old Timer

(36:36):
settled into the passenger seat of Andy's car, his first
adventure in many years. When they got to Andy's house,
his wife, Amy and the two little girls, Jennifer and Eliza,
were there to greet them. Amy handed Old Timer a
big slice of corn bread. Just a little something to
hold you over till dinner, she said. The little girls
went right up to Old Timer and hugged his neck. Hello,

(36:58):
old Timer, Oh, how wonderful it felt. Andy showed him
around the house. How cozy it looked like something out
of a dream. At the end of the hall, Andy
opened the door.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
This is your room.

Speaker 14 (37:12):
It took Old Timer's breath away. A brand new, soft
and comfortable bed. He couldn't wait to sleep in it,
even if only for one night. Dinner was a feast, turkey, potatoes,
fresh vegetables, and corn bread, that wonderful corn bread. Then
it was time to open presents. Old Timer watched as

(37:34):
the family exchanged gifts. Don't worry, old Timer, we haven't
forgotten about you. Old Timer didn't need a gift. This
was all more than he could ever have hoped for.
But he knew something was up. Amy was smiling broadly.
The little girls giggled. Andy stood up, old Timer. You're
not going back to that awful place. You're going to

(37:57):
live here with us. You're going to be part of
our fam What do you think about that? Old Timer
was in shock, and that's when he did something he
hadn't done in a very long time. He wagged his
tail and he put a brand new collar on him.
You're not old Timer anymore. Merry Christmas, and welcome home, Charlie.

(38:23):
He remembered that name, and it was good to hear
it again, especially from his new family. That night, Charlie
fell asleep in front of the fireplace with a little
girl on either side. He was finally home. The greatest

(38:45):
gift of all.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
God well, I don't have time to sing right now.

Speaker 8 (39:40):
I was waiting for you to scat. It was going
so well.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
You liked it when I scattered earlier. Yeah yeah, if
y'all miss it, I'll tell you how you can relive
it in just minutes. First, as promised, another big Yell
Christmas classic.

Speaker 6 (39:58):
Welcome Dude, Boy and Billy Playhouse Today's episode How the
Grump Stole Christmas. All the cast of the Big Show
liked Christmas a lot, but the Grump, their curmudgeon at large,
he did not. The Grump had a tude about the

(40:20):
whole Christmas season. Now, please don't ask why. No one
quite knows the reason. Some say his head wasn't screwed
on just right. It could be perhaps that his shoes
were too tight, but the most likely reason that he
wasn't tickled may have been that his liver was totally pickled.
But whatever his liver, his head, or his shoes, he

(40:43):
sat home on Christmas Eve guzzling booze. He grumbled and
grumped to his long suffering honey.

Speaker 22 (40:52):
Christmas just a big scam to make money, wife, and
I on the seventy two years, I've put up with it. Now,
I must stop this Christmas from coming.

Speaker 6 (41:03):
But wow, then he got an idea, an awful idea.
The Grump got a wonderful, awful idea.

Speaker 22 (41:11):
I will make a fake Santa Claus outfit with spots,
and I'll go to the mall.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
And the rass all the brats.

Speaker 22 (41:19):
I'll make sure that every last shopper is dissed. Next
time they see Santa Claus, they'll be pissed.

Speaker 6 (41:27):
His wife said crazy.

Speaker 22 (41:30):
He said, quit your benching, hush, now, get yourself back
in the cushion.

Speaker 6 (41:36):
So Grumpy Claws wore his disguise that was fake and
waited till Maul Santa went on his break. He went
to the fountain to mal Santa's castle, three sheets to
the wind and ready to hassle. He invited the kids
to come sit on his throne and said.

Speaker 7 (41:53):
Keep your list short and then leave me alone.

Speaker 6 (41:56):
Then Grumpy Claws started up quite a to do. He
dissed Fervy and Elmo and Pokemon too. Some kids were fooled,
but one kid was quicker.

Speaker 19 (42:06):
Hey, Daddy, both Santa smells just like a cheap liquor.

Speaker 6 (42:11):
His dad knew the Grump wasn't like Santa's passed he said.

Speaker 8 (42:15):
You're right, Jeffrey, this sena his guess.

Speaker 6 (42:19):
The mall cop said, wawser oh senna is face, and
quick as a flash, sprayed him down with some mace.
The fake Santa Wobble then dropped into Dreamland. The cops
dragged him out past the gap and ice cream Land.
They got in their jeep and drove to his house
and handed him over to his loving spouse. His wife said,

(42:42):
I'm just glad. They said they won't sue and waited
for him to dry out and come too. And what
happened next, Well, eyewitnesses say that the Grump's liver grew
by three sizes. That did his holiday brainstorm came out
as a bust, and from that Chris is On he
held in his disgust. But the very next Christmas he

(43:04):
hatched a new scheme and he he himself the Grump
guzzled jim Bean the moral. Most stories like this have
all got one, but in this particular case, well there's
not one. And that is the tale of the Grump
who got soused a Christmas time. John Boy and Billy

(43:25):
