Tom Barnard Podcast
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.

Crash and Burn is here for the 14th year in a row, which makes it only slightly older than our own show. Back then, people were less into watching shows about psychotic murderers or sex traffickers. It was a much more optimistic time. It could be argued we need comedy now more than then, so go check it out lest you too fall into the true crime rabbit hole.

Mark Malkoff joins us today to determine who's more obsessed with Carson - him or Tom. Considering he's written a book and hosted a podcast specifically on the topic, it's safe to say it's him. But we've done almost 3000 episodes of this show and Carson comes up in approximately half of them, so maybe it's closer than you think.

Have you ever watched a football game so bad you started thinking about race relations of the 1930s and invasive medical procedures to cope? If so, you might be a Falcons fan. Or a Vikings fan. And while we're on the subject of much-needed change, Minnetonka's getting a new mayor in two weeks. One candidate, Ellen Cousins, joins us today to talk about what she'd bring to the city.

Tom and Kathryn watched a John Candy documentary. Similarities were noticed. Kind of like how boy bands and k-pop are similar. Or how the red carpet is similar to certain circles of hell. Life is full of comparisons.

They're doing more stuff in Riyadh, which means more celebrities making millions of dollars and people being very unhappy about that. Ace Frehley made his money the legitimate way by rocking and rolling all night, so nobody's mad at him.

Apparently motorcycles break a lot. At least they do when you ride them across the country nonstop. Motorcycles aren't exactly the safest machines to begin with, but when you add "catastrophic axle damage" to the equation you've got a real problem. That's why we recommend divine intervention. It works great if you can get it.

When you think of someone who wants to change Minnesota, you think of positions of fame. Governor, mayor of a big city, state senator, and so forth. But what about auditor? Lack of oversight on our spending is arguably one of our biggest issues. Being able to fix that would go a long way toward fixing everything else. That's what Nate's all about. We'll start with the budget and work our way from there.
On the show:
We've got an investment opportunity for you. $100,000 can get you $10,000,000, and it's a sure thing. All we need is a time machine. It doesn't have to be a great one. Even just 20 years back will suffice. Failing that, we suggest shorting the Jets. Can you short an NFL team?

Tom and Kathryn are in Florida once more, the hostages have been freed, and Bob's about to be a grandpa. All is well in the world. For the five people on today's show, anyway. Plus when you have a sore throat you have an excuse to drink whiskey all day. What's there to complain about?

Not everyone, not even the very rich, often make it to 100. Most of us do make it to the age where you need reading glasses though. That's pretty scary. Even scarier than a giant green guy lumbering around going "rrrrr". But not scarier than Ed Gein.

If you've ever wanted to lose 220 million dollars, you should have gotten into Minneapolis commercial real estate about ten years ago. But hey, it's not too late. There's plenty of money left to lose in that city, unless things start changing in a hurry. And speaking of changing in a hurry, when are all of these hundred year old former NFL players getting into the hall of fame? When, I ask you?

First Kathryn is incapacitated, now Andy. That's okay though. How hard could running all that equipment really be? Besides, we've got Kristyn and Tim, so we can't just abandon them or their loyal fans.

No, he's not running for governor. Sorry, we've asked. That goes for both our guests today. Being governor is a lot of pressure. You've got the mansion, the speeches, the top hat. It's just too much. Plus when would they have time to make booya or do stand-up comedy?

Diana fills in for Kathryn today, which works well because she's got 40 years of KARE history to go through with Tom, give or take. She's also using her skill set as a reporter in the pursuit of nature photography. Apparently Jeffrey Dahmer's apartment has been given back to nature, but it's probably still not the kind of place you go to take pictures.

Has your neighbor ever tried to make you relapse? Have you ever had fourteen children? Are you an obese O-10? The answer to all of these is probably "no", which is what makes them interesting. A real man bites dog situation, as Chris may or may not say. It's a news thing.

Kathryn and Alex are out, which means we have two sad guys on the show today. No, not those two; guess again. Kristyn notices and suggests Tom do some self care. Brittany also notices but instead we start talking about bad touch in public places. It's good not to dwell on one topic for too long, you know.
