Tom Barnard Podcast

Google is slow. Bob can't get into Streamyard, and his 1980s computer equipment is on the fritz. Tom's camera is turning itself off. Makes you feel like you're in the Twilight Zone. But not all is lost: the Tony awards were apparently surprisingly watchable. You know, if you actually like broadway theater.

Remember when we had Bill on our show back in 2020? Well, technically it was Car Selling Secrets, but who's counting. You may recall he also started a podcast shortly after that ran for about a year. He's back, it's back, and we're ready to start releasing new episodes in about a month. Until then, you'll have to settle for this show.

We've known Dave for a long time. We've known Cassie, his wife, even longer. And as it turns out, ten years is a long time. We just found out recently. But not everything changes despite the passage of time, at least not right away: Dave is still out there hunting ghosts, we're still doing our podcast, and people are still greedy.

Ever been in a 50 lane traffic jam? How about stuck in your car for 5 days? No? That must make you proud to be an American. Or anything but someone from Hong Kong, really. Maybe you're a little less proud lately what with all the smoke in the air, but at least we live in the future where we have personal air purifiers. The Jetsons would be jealous.

You know how the Lowry tunnel is a major slowdown on a good day? Have you ever wondered how slow it would be if a semi truck wrapped itself around the divider wall? Wonder no more! Simply visit today and see for yourself. Then when you're done, why not visit Tommy at Laugh Camp tonight and tomorrow? Go see both to make sure you don't miss anything.

You know what's bad? People who take what isn't theirs. You know, scammers, fraudsters, hoodwinkers, gleepsters. I may have made that last one up. What's even worse though is having to drive your own car. Think of how much you could get done during your daily commute. Not that we as Minnesotans ever have any chance of that happening, but we're very happy for Texas in a passive aggressive way.

Remember almost ten years ago when Tyson was on talking about his new business, the Skaalvenn Distillery? It's still going strong despite all that's happened since then. Unfortunately, he also urgently needs a double lung transplant. Odds are he's gonna get one, but it's still not what you want to be doing with your free time.

The Lilo and Stitch remake beat Mission Impossible. Is it because it was just that great, or because after thirty years and eight movies we're a bit sick of Ethan Hunt? According to a few of our listeners, it's both. And speaking of being sick of things for decades, we've been sick of Minnesota sports since the Twins last won the world series in the 14th century.

Never mind. I found a good Memorial Day episode. And by "I", I mean it definitely wasn't Louisville Joe who came up with the idea and found the episode number for me. Nope, all me. Anyway, Tig, Oz, and Tanto were all present at the attacks in Benghazi in 2012. Can't get much more military than that. Surprisingly, for people who recently saw direct combat, they're fairly upbeat.

It's Memorial Day, which means we're too busy remembering to do a show. I tried to find an old episode where we interviewed someone military-related, but I came up blank, so instead how about one where we talk about that one time we interviewed someone military-related? It's like remembering twice.

Have you got the basketball jones? Sage certainly does. Mike, less so, but he's still probably the #2 fan in the room. We don't know Liz's basketball status, but we do know her news status, and that status is Alpha. I mean Alpha News, not like an alpha in the way the manosphere uses it. Although she might be able to outlift you. We'll never know.

Sometimes life can be hard. The internet goes out. Your steak isn't done to your exacting specifications. Those kids in the park are being slightly too loud. And then of course there's veterans who died and can't get a proper military funeral because nobody shows up, but those people don't complain on TikTok so that problem largely goes unnoticed. That's why Gary joined Bugles Across America. That and because bugle i...

Steroids are a relatively recent thing. So is being a gigantic mass of muscles who can tear a steel beam in half. That's probably a coincidence though. What's not a coincidence is that Minnesota made the questionable decision to build a roofless stadium and now games are getting cancelled all the time. If only we had discovered meteorology prior to 2010.
