Frank Murphy is joined by his friend Mitch Moore, who is a freelance writer. They are using Frank & Friends Show pint glasses for the first time. Mitch thought Mo the tortoise was ceramic but Frank urges him to watch episode 0019 at https://youtu.be/_LmUlhl7Kdk for the whole story. 

Frank and Mitch are not offended by meat but Frank’s friend Bean does not eat meat from the types of animals he has owned as pets. Mitch makes animal noises to cats and dogs. Frank asks if he talks to all the animals like Doctor Dolittle. 

Frank and his wife Jere sent a metal detector as a birthday gift to their ten-year-old grandson Artie. It didn’t work properly and Frank was asked to send a return code, which he had never done before. Metal detectors are associated with old men who probably wish they had a metal detector when they were ten.

Frank interviewed Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat for his TV show, Up Close with Frank Murphy. The episode will air this summer on East Tennessee PBS. Frank met Ricky while hosting the Fair Food Throwdown at the Tennessee Valley Fair and recording a YouTube video that you can watch here: https://youtu.be/rFrvhW30-Bw 

Mitch often solves the New York Times Crossword Puzzle. Frank has a solving streak of over 2,100 consecutive days. A glitch in the crossword app caused Frank’s streak to be broken even though he correctly solved the puzzle on time. Jere told him how to contact the company to get his streak reinstated.
