The Tom Barnard Show features local and national guests and is heavily focused on humor. Tom Barnard, host of the #1 local morning show in the United States since 1986, created the podcast with the goal of a show with more creativity and flexibility than radio. Tom hosts the show along with his wife Kathryn, daughter Alex, and son Andy. It airs live central time, Monday-Friday 10:30 to 11:45. You can stream it live at www.tombarnardshow.com, see it on Youtube, or search for our app - also called Tom Barnard Podcast. Email tombarnardpodcast@gmail.com at any time with questions.
This episode's a doozy. We've got talk of Epstein, musicians having inappropriate relationships, Kid Rock vs. Bad Bunny, billionaire taxes, the decline of education. We even say something positive about Mississippi. It's crazy. But what's even crazier is allowing your heating bill to skyrocket due to lack of insulation in your house. Stay warm, people.

Vinnie's back, and he's still crusading against obesity. It's a topic relevant to basically everyone, whether they themselves are obese or they're directly related to someone who is. Hence his success. Of course, you don't become a successful weight loss guru without results. Why not become a part of those results? We won't charge you for the hour.

Are you sick of hearing about football? Then you're in luck, because Costaki has been once again banished for seven months. And if you weren't, well the season is over anyway. But you know what's never, ever over? The Epstein files. Someone should really start talking about those.

Well, it happened. The Seahawks won, and in the process proved that the Vikings' biggest problem is that they don't know how to build a team. They also saved us from another year of smug Patriots gloating, so we can't be too mad. Especially after watching the Puppy Bowl.

If you're looking for a cozy read, how about the Epstein files? Apparently they're very popular at the moment. Then when you get tired of hearing about people in positions of power talking about things you'll wish you'd never read, you can watch yet another Dracula movie.

Picture this: everywhere you go, strangers congratulate you on the birth of your child. Years later, those same people are congratulating your child having a child. They know you, but you don't know them. Sounds creepy, but that's just the reality of life in the public eye. But hey, even if you're not in the public eye, corporations and the government know exactly where you are and what you buy at all times anyway, so ...
Did you ever think Minnesota would be the laughingstock of the country? If you've been paying attention, maybe you did. Well the day has come, and now it's time to clean up the mess and become a respectingstock once more. Perhaps the Moderate Majority Party is the way to go. Either way, make sure to make your voice heard on November Whatever Day The Election Is.

The Super Bowl is coming up, and you know what that means: chips. Also dip. And commercials. If there's time, perhaps some football as well. Next Tuesday it'll also mean Bob and Costaki get to gloat about the Patriots losing thanks to Minnesota talent. That's right, we're calling it now.

It's warming up up north, but it's so cold down south that the iguanas are freezing. And do you know what that reminds us of? The winter Olympics. And you know what winter reminds us of? All the people dying. Seriously, it's been quite a week.

Brad surprises Tom with a visit to West Palm Beach, which leads to a very high volume show. Kristyn and Tim both got their entertainment talk in, and Alex even managed to have a conversation about the NBA with him. Tom also got a call that his sister-in-law died today, so the cheerfulness was much needed.

Over half of Americans will break at least one bone at some point in their lives. As a result, there are plenty of broken bone stories out there, many of which are funny in retrospect. And yes, like everything else, there is a hate subreddit for people who've broken a bone. Although we suspect that one might be facetious.

NFL cheerleaders. They're ubiquitous, famous, and their pay ranges from six figures to the change they can scavenge from the stands after the game. And then you've got the refs who make 200k and are being slowly replaced with robots. The whole league makes no sense.

Would you pay $500,000 for a converted shack in the middle of nowhere? Would you accept $500,000 to climb a skyscraper with no ropes or nets? If you're a normal person, you answered 'no' to both of these. And you also didn't go hoard bread for this weekend. Because that is not a normal thing to do.

What would you do if you saw a bunch of toddlers on a highway? There are many possibilities, and most of them are bad. Luckily there are still good people out there, as evidenced by the dad who saved a couple of kids on A1A in Florida. What they were doing there is anyone's guess.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
