Speaker 5 (03:03):
This is Bob and Tom extra.
Speaker 7 (03:05):
Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Chrissy
Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk.
Speaker 8 (03:13):
I'm news ready.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
They don't do that anymore. Yeah, what was that? Was
that Morse code?
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Tom? Or was that tell Star? Or was that spot neck? What?
What was that?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Remember the question tell Star? That was There was a
big hit song called tell Star.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
When I was little. That was the first one of
the first satellites, if not the first satellite.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
I can remember being a little boy and uh, standing
in the beach in Harbor Springs looking up and you
could see something going overhead called Echo.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
It was very scary.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Why satellite.
Speaker 7 (03:46):
You didn't see it as advancements in technology.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
I saw it as the Ruskies.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Uh, you saw it by going to sleep by the
light of a communist moon.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
I saw the guy saw those big missiles being a
ship to Cuba.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
I know what's going on.
Speaker 7 (04:05):
How many people got together of your age group would
say that John Kennedy just scarred them for the rest
of their lives.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, he didn't.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Well, he made the big announcements to do you know
the missiles there in Cuba.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Yeah, I went to boy years ago. I went down
that rabbit hole and read like three different books on
it and the Cuban missile crisis and all that stuff.
And I'm fairly convinced if anyone but JFK had been
in office, Oh yeah, because everyone was telling him to
do opposite what he ended up doing.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
I'm watching a sci fi series right now. It's they
have a time machine, but they use it for good
and it's it's it's not bad. But in their alternate reality,
the world did end in nineteen sixty three.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
Oh wow, with the Cuban missile crisis. Yeah and yeah, so.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
Then they backed the they backed time up before and
they try to stop it.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
It's pretty good. Wow, he must not have slept for
thirteen days.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Oh, now we are going to move forward here.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Do you think your generation has PTSD? I think a
slight case. I think everybody has PTS, you know, because
I think younger generations will have sort of a COVID
PTSD as well. There will be.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Everybody everybody's Yeah, as Mary Tyler Moore of HMOUS just said,
everybody's got something, yes, yeah, yeah, I look to her
to guide me. I mean, I mean even Jeff Bezos
probably wakes up in the middle of that every once
in a while.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
And there's a chance he knows way more than any
of us ever.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
So yeah, do you think he worries about reconciling his checkbook?
Speaker 5 (05:35):
No, I'm off nine cents.
Speaker 8 (05:38):
Do you do that balance your check book for me? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Oh god, no, me either. Hell no.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
He probably worries about the power of his erections and
if he keeps he keeps getting the CLIs ivy, if
it's going to eventually make his eyeballs explain.
Speaker 7 (05:52):
I think he should worry about what what face his
wife comes home with.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
That's what I was worried about about rying.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
I heard him he hurt his back. Oh really yeah, yeah,
he was picking up the pre nup off the ground,
and I'll blame somewhat weighty. How'd that conversation go? You're
gonna laugh? Okay, I got a document I need you
to sign. Well, yeah, they're no, it's standard. It's a
(06:21):
boiler plate, you.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Know, I know that's an M A B. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Right, Well, it's time to check in with your letters
here in the Bobbitton Program, coming to you from the
Oreli Auto Park studios. Many invaried letters over here today.
A lot of corn news.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
A lot of corn news, A lot I have a
lot of corn news. Matter of fact, let's start with
corn news. We're talking about fresh sweet corn yesterday, and that,
of course, if you talk about sweet corn, you always
end up talking about corn skewers. Oh yeah, and there
are many invaried as well. And let's see a picture
of the latest corn skewer. This is a docs and
(06:56):
on one end, his head on one end of the corn,
his tail on the other end.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
That's wonderful. Just wonder somebody stole the plates from a
Chinese buffet. That's possible, that's absolutely possible.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Did someone send us that.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
So sweet dots's funny. That's that's that's acceptable because I
pat I said, if they don't look like little corn
on the cobs, they're not corner on the cobs skewers. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Now, when you go to a Chinese restaurant and they
have those little mini corn on the cobs, Oh thank you?
Do you?
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (07:29):
I never eat them. Yeah, I don't like the flame.
Oh no, Tom, I admire Tom for this opinion.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
I just think it's the same reason I'm like ordering veal.
I like those corns have a full life, grow into
big corns. Please don't write a letter again saying.
Speaker 7 (07:45):
You think there's some corn conglomber out there.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
This is too large for the mini corn. Let it
grow too long? Go back?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Do they grow those things? And like they're like little
teeny corner I don't know has come from.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
Oh yeah, they're a little few sh taste like corn.
Does any other I've never eaten one. I don't think
they do taste an corn. There's a little bit of corn,
but it's I just don't care for what are.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
They I'm gonna look at that.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, does any other uh food type use those things?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Probably some kind of damn night shade or something. I
don't know. I only really see it in like Asian cuisine. Yeah,
we were talking.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
About maybe because I got some uh sweet corn over
the weekend. It was the first sweet corn that was
absolutely great that I've had this year. And we talk
about the seasonality of certain foods and corn is certainly
one of them, and that got us talking about our
friend Greg Warren, the great comedian. Greg has a comedy
(08:45):
special out there called Where the Field Corn Grows. Among
other things, he talks about the field corn, sweet corn,
et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Doesn't that sound funny?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Wells funny?
Speaker 5 (08:56):
God? I know he does. He's one of my best friends.
Stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
And I got a letter about that about eating field corn,
which I'll get to in a second.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Did you find the answer.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
Yes.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
Many corn, also known as baby corn, refers to the
immature ears of corn harvested before the kernels fully developed.
Speaker 5 (09:15):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 8 (09:16):
Essentially the same type of corn as the ears we
typically eat, but are picked at a much younger stage.
Speaker 7 (09:20):
No way, I was kidding. Yeah, that's the idea that
I thought it was some kind of beat or something.
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 8 (09:30):
Like corn I'm just.
Speaker 7 (09:31):
Saying, guys, pat, stop saying that your tasters are off.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
So who else uses that? What other cuisine has the.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
I like the way you say quiz cuisine.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
I don't know who. Essentially the same type of corn
as you eat yep, weird. Yeah, they're picked in a much
younger stage, typically when they're only a few inches long.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
Yeah, too long, and then throw them out and that
goes down on your permanent record as a tiny baby.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Nobody wants the teenage corn armisted.
Speaker 8 (10:01):
Before it's fully pollinated.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
The there's the.
Speaker 7 (10:04):
Full look at the docks it on one end and
and what.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
Are those call?
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Is that a hot dog on the corn?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Skewers skewers. Okay, so and that's k E W E
R s. And then I had a technical question. Is
it okay to eat your corn right to left or
left to right and and then you know, slip it
around a notch and then eat the next level?
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Of course, yeahlready you go. You were unfairly criticized.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
Wait a minute, you don't deep throat it and bite
and go halfway down like a cartoon cat with a fish.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
But the other technique, of course, is you take a
bite and then rotate and then take a bite, rotate
the bite, rotate.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
You've got me thinking, now I don't.
Speaker 8 (10:44):
Remember how you exactly me too. I gotta I'm gonna
have some corn, and I.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Do an old fashioned typewriter style.
Speaker 8 (10:49):
I thought I did. But now that you're talking.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Do you hum that song a little?
Speaker 6 (10:59):
But I do?
Speaker 5 (11:00):
I burn my hands. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
You don't have skewers at my apartment, wouldn't have nothing.
Do you even make corn?
Speaker 5 (11:08):
Though I did for Jimmy yet two weeks ago?
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Yeah? Okay, you you boiled it and I did.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Yeah, listen to this, oh.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
And Christy pointed, so I did not. I was not
aware of this. You you put sugar in the water
when you boil your sweet corn?
Speaker 5 (11:22):
I do, yes, it's according to taste.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Yeah, I mean some people put salt, some people put nothing.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
I use somebody. Some people dunk it in sugar and
then butter ANGI after it's made, She says, I just
wanted to share with you all. I grew up eating
sour cream on my corn on the cop Wow. Hell,
rather than buttering it. I think maybe she butters and
that sounds really good, says it's the best way to
enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
I've even thought and then I believe it's the movie,
the one about the bomb and the There We Go
where the beginning of the movie the mom takes the
someone takes a piece of bread, puts butter on it.
We've always done that, and then spins the corn in
it to put butter on it.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
We used to use the keel of the bread.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I think it's the movie War Games.
Speaker 8 (12:04):
The heel of the bread was what we used every time.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Oh with Matthew. Now, would somebody eat the bread if.
Speaker 8 (12:09):
You wanted to, you could eat the bread, but we
used it to butter the corn the whole time.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
But then, but somebody in your family didn't go not
give me that piece? Did you pass the bread around? Yeah,
you're just I've never seen it.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
You've never seen that. Never are you following the logic?
Here piece of bread, butter and the bread spin following
the logic. I got a brush that would get side
in the middle of the table.
Speaker 7 (12:27):
This question, but I asked this many times. I need
you to answer me. Please, Yes, how stupid do you
think we are? I was addressing Pat Pat. Were you
a carry Gold family or the Irish?
Speaker 5 (12:42):
No?
Speaker 7 (12:42):
No, I am now we didn't hear about that because
we used the cheap stuff.
Speaker 8 (12:46):
There's also a thing that a company called Pampered Chef
makes that's great. You put a pat of butter in
it and then it's kind of curved and you can
pull it push it around on your corn like that,
and then as the buttermell, you just pushed the little
plunger down and it puts.
Speaker 7 (13:02):
Look at the look at gilded age over there.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Would it be? Would it be great? But some family
had like some massive Rube Goldberg Goldberg device that had
like a spray paint thing.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Pick up like pee wee herns.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
We would have meals of just corn and kool aid.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
Swear to God, I we've all had.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
Then you also have a candy barn of bulls.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
Yeah, those end of the month meals were were pretty wild,
weren't They say?
Speaker 7 (13:39):
Sometimes the end of the month, there's more month than
more month than money.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
That's oh well, let's keep going. You got a letter
over there.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Here, Bob and Tom show, first time emailer. I've been
listening since seventh grade and nineteen ninety seven, Last Century kids.
I was listening today to Craig Warner and the Warner
report on phone booths. I had to mention he forgot
the phone booth references we use in blue collar trades.
(14:08):
The new kids don't get. I'm a field mechanic and
the coal mines of West Virginia.
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
When I was a new mechanic, I was messing with
the older guy training me, and he told me I
would rather shave a Bobcat's ass in a phone booth
than f with him. Now that I'm the old guy,
we changed it to a porta John because when we
say phone booth they have no idea what we're talking.
Thank you for all the laughs. Enjoyed seeing you in
Charleston last year of Charleston, West Virginia. Josh keeps supporting
(14:37):
new metal music. We'll do tomm You may want to
look into a three wheel bike. We would all feel
safer with you on wheel.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
No, thank you?
Speaker 3 (14:46):
What was the what was the expression again, I'd rather shave?
Speaker 5 (14:49):
What is it?
Speaker 7 (14:49):
I'd rather shave a Bobcat's ass in a phone booth
than f with him.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
That's a great, great story, or f with him? I
think another I'd rather shave a Bobcats asked a portage
on then that's a good one. Yeah, yeah, must get scratched. Yeah,
it's gonna be.
Speaker 7 (15:08):
Dear Bob and Tom Show. Do you need an air
horn for your bike? Not one of those prissy bike bells,
more bang for your buck, Tom.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Tom is a bike bell.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
We're talking about getting him one.
Speaker 5 (15:21):
If I buy you a La Cucaracha horn.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
Will you know they have tiny little programmable horse that
you attached to your handlebar, and that would that would
scare people? Is any tune you want?
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Because what you tradition when you when you come upon someone,
you go on your left. But yeah, I think would
be I think maybe getting some kind.
Speaker 5 (15:43):
Of a bell.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
The problem that my girls have them on their bikes,
but again there's girls.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
When I hear somebody on a bike, My habit though,
is to turn around and like inadvertent step into their
path right on your left. What was that bike? Hang
on a second before we break, here comes Tom on
his bike. Hang nice day today. I hope you're enjoying it.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Here, Bob a Tom Show as a fellow cyclist, Tom Jack,
I'm curious, can.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
You would you?
Speaker 7 (16:19):
Will you share what kind of bike you ride? That
Scott in Lansing, Michigan.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
It's a Huffy. I'm gonna go with Huffy whin it's track.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's a a hybrid.
Speaker 5 (16:32):
I have a track.
Speaker 8 (16:33):
I have a track.
Speaker 5 (16:34):
I have a trick.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
It started as gaelec. No, no, it's it's been modified drastically.
So what does that mean as an engine in the
it's like a Franken bike.
Speaker 8 (16:44):
You can just say, I don't know already put it
together for you at a bike No, no.
Speaker 5 (16:49):
It was one thing. Didn't you had it altered? Did
you put it together? Yeah? You did.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
I mean I had my friends at the bike line
do it.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
But yeah, So you didn't put it together.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Special brakes or something, just some exotic stuff.
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Yeah, yeah, the exotic except was a basket and those streamers,
you know, like like Peewee with the lions.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
I remember it when I was a little boy.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
If you had a basket on your bike, you would
just be mocked, of.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Course, Dorothy.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah, the kids are so awful in general and to
each other.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
If you were a girl with a basket, though, it
was fine. Isn't that interesting?
Speaker 3 (17:36):
But I had a paper route, so I had a
I had like this big double basket in the back
of my shwind Tornado. It was just relentlessly mocked.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
But yours was you had a reason, but you're still
going to get Yeah, hey, Tom, does your husband have
a bike.
Speaker 8 (17:52):
Oh you're not going to ride that bike down dirt
hills and ramps and jumps. No, no, I'm just saying
that's why they mocked you.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
Oh, there are a lot of reasons they mocked me.
You're not riding down dirt hills and jumps now.
Speaker 8 (18:05):
When he was a kid.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Yeah, no, that I had a I bought a like
a thirty dollars bike, and then I modified that and
I put the course the banana seat on it.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
Oh yeah, see you were mocked.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yes, yeah, Chick and I both wanted to get the
one that the sting ray that had the stick shift
on it, snick.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Shift and the leopard seat.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Yeah oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
It's a different time.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Yeah. In any event, my bike is that it's like
three different bikes thrown together.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
Of course it is. It's very hard to find. Would
you just buy one b.
Speaker 8 (18:45):
Why what's wrong with the one?
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I did have it, and then I kind of started
using it for different things and changed it like a cross.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Yeah, okay, it makes sense.
Speaker 7 (18:54):
I answer. I wouldn't have read the letter.
Speaker 5 (18:58):
Nobody liked that answer.
Speaker 7 (18:59):
All I know is we need a horn that can
be attached to a bike that makes this sound.

This is Bob and Tom extra.
Speaker 7 (03:05):
Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Chrissy
Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk.
Speaker 8 (03:13):
I'm news ready.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
They don't do that anymore. Yeah, what was that? Was
that Morse code?
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Tom? Or was that tell Star? Or was that spot neck? What?
What was that?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Remember the question tell Star? That was There was a
big hit song called tell Star.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
When I was little. That was the first one of
the first satellites, if not the first satellite.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
I can remember being a little boy and uh, standing
in the beach in Harbor Springs looking up and you
could see something going overhead called Echo.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
It was very scary.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Why satellite.
Speaker 7 (03:46):
You didn't see it as advancements in technology.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
I saw it as the Ruskies.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Uh, you saw it by going to sleep by the
light of a communist moon.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
I saw the guy saw those big missiles being a
ship to Cuba.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
I know what's going on.
Speaker 7 (04:05):
How many people got together of your age group would
say that John Kennedy just scarred them for the rest
of their lives.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, he didn't.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Well, he made the big announcements to do you know
the missiles there in Cuba.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Yeah, I went to boy years ago. I went down
that rabbit hole and read like three different books on
it and the Cuban missile crisis and all that stuff.
And I'm fairly convinced if anyone but JFK had been
in office, Oh yeah, because everyone was telling him to
do opposite what he ended up doing.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
I'm watching a sci fi series right now. It's they
have a time machine, but they use it for good
and it's it's it's not bad. But in their alternate reality,
the world did end in nineteen sixty three.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
Oh wow, with the Cuban missile crisis. Yeah and yeah, so.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
Then they backed the they backed time up before and
they try to stop it.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
It's pretty good. Wow, he must not have slept for
thirteen days.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Oh, now we are going to move forward here.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Do you think your generation has PTSD? I think a
slight case. I think everybody has PTS, you know, because
I think younger generations will have sort of a COVID
PTSD as well. There will be.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Everybody everybody's Yeah, as Mary Tyler Moore of HMOUS just said,
everybody's got something, yes, yeah, yeah, I look to her
to guide me. I mean, I mean even Jeff Bezos
probably wakes up in the middle of that every once
in a while.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
And there's a chance he knows way more than any
of us ever.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
So yeah, do you think he worries about reconciling his checkbook?
Speaker 5 (05:35):
No, I'm off nine cents.
Speaker 8 (05:38):
Do you do that balance your check book for me? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Oh god, no, me either. Hell no.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
He probably worries about the power of his erections and
if he keeps he keeps getting the CLIs ivy, if
it's going to eventually make his eyeballs explain.
Speaker 7 (05:52):
I think he should worry about what what face his
wife comes home with.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
That's what I was worried about about rying.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
I heard him he hurt his back. Oh really yeah, yeah,
he was picking up the pre nup off the ground,
and I'll blame somewhat weighty. How'd that conversation go? You're
gonna laugh? Okay, I got a document I need you
to sign. Well, yeah, they're no, it's standard. It's a
(06:21):
boiler plate, you.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Know, I know that's an M A B. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Right, Well, it's time to check in with your letters
here in the Bobbitton Program, coming to you from the
Oreli Auto Park studios. Many invaried letters over here today.
A lot of corn news.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
A lot of corn news, A lot I have a
lot of corn news. Matter of fact, let's start with
corn news. We're talking about fresh sweet corn yesterday, and that,
of course, if you talk about sweet corn, you always
end up talking about corn skewers. Oh yeah, and there
are many invaried as well. And let's see a picture
of the latest corn skewer. This is a docs and
(06:56):
on one end, his head on one end of the corn,
his tail on the other end.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
That's wonderful. Just wonder somebody stole the plates from a
Chinese buffet. That's possible, that's absolutely possible.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Did someone send us that.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
So sweet dots's funny. That's that's that's acceptable because I
pat I said, if they don't look like little corn
on the cobs, they're not corner on the cobs skewers. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Now, when you go to a Chinese restaurant and they
have those little mini corn on the cobs, Oh thank you?
Do you?
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (07:29):
I never eat them. Yeah, I don't like the flame.
Oh no, Tom, I admire Tom for this opinion.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
I just think it's the same reason I'm like ordering veal.
I like those corns have a full life, grow into
big corns. Please don't write a letter again saying.
Speaker 7 (07:45):
You think there's some corn conglomber out there.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
This is too large for the mini corn. Let it
grow too long? Go back?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Do they grow those things? And like they're like little
teeny corner I don't know has come from.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
Oh yeah, they're a little few sh taste like corn.
Does any other I've never eaten one. I don't think
they do taste an corn. There's a little bit of corn,
but it's I just don't care for what are.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
They I'm gonna look at that.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, does any other uh food type use those things?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Probably some kind of damn night shade or something. I
don't know. I only really see it in like Asian cuisine. Yeah,
we were talking.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
About maybe because I got some uh sweet corn over
the weekend. It was the first sweet corn that was
absolutely great that I've had this year. And we talk
about the seasonality of certain foods and corn is certainly
one of them, and that got us talking about our
friend Greg Warren, the great comedian. Greg has a comedy
(08:45):
special out there called Where the Field Corn Grows. Among
other things, he talks about the field corn, sweet corn,
et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Doesn't that sound funny?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Wells funny?
Speaker 5 (08:56):
God? I know he does. He's one of my best friends.
Stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
And I got a letter about that about eating field corn,
which I'll get to in a second.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Did you find the answer.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
Yes.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
Many corn, also known as baby corn, refers to the
immature ears of corn harvested before the kernels fully developed.
Speaker 5 (09:15):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 8 (09:16):
Essentially the same type of corn as the ears we
typically eat, but are picked at a much younger stage.
Speaker 7 (09:20):
No way, I was kidding. Yeah, that's the idea that
I thought it was some kind of beat or something.
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 8 (09:30):
Like corn I'm just.
Speaker 7 (09:31):
Saying, guys, pat, stop saying that your tasters are off.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
So who else uses that? What other cuisine has the.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
I like the way you say quiz cuisine.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
I don't know who. Essentially the same type of corn
as you eat yep, weird. Yeah, they're picked in a much
younger stage, typically when they're only a few inches long.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
Yeah, too long, and then throw them out and that
goes down on your permanent record as a tiny baby.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Nobody wants the teenage corn armisted.
Speaker 8 (10:01):
Before it's fully pollinated.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
The there's the.
Speaker 7 (10:04):
Full look at the docks it on one end and
and what.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
Are those call?
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Is that a hot dog on the corn?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Skewers skewers. Okay, so and that's k E W E
R s. And then I had a technical question. Is
it okay to eat your corn right to left or
left to right and and then you know, slip it
around a notch and then eat the next level?
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Of course, yeahlready you go. You were unfairly criticized.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
Wait a minute, you don't deep throat it and bite
and go halfway down like a cartoon cat with a fish.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
But the other technique, of course, is you take a
bite and then rotate and then take a bite, rotate
the bite, rotate.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
You've got me thinking, now I don't.
Speaker 8 (10:44):
Remember how you exactly me too. I gotta I'm gonna
have some corn, and I.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Do an old fashioned typewriter style.
Speaker 8 (10:49):
I thought I did. But now that you're talking.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Do you hum that song a little?
Speaker 6 (10:59):
But I do?
Speaker 5 (11:00):
I burn my hands. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
You don't have skewers at my apartment, wouldn't have nothing.
Do you even make corn?
Speaker 5 (11:08):
Though I did for Jimmy yet two weeks ago?
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Yeah? Okay, you you boiled it and I did.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Yeah, listen to this, oh.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
And Christy pointed, so I did not. I was not
aware of this. You you put sugar in the water
when you boil your sweet corn?
Speaker 5 (11:22):
I do, yes, it's according to taste.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Yeah, I mean some people put salt, some people put nothing.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
I use somebody. Some people dunk it in sugar and
then butter ANGI after it's made, She says, I just
wanted to share with you all. I grew up eating
sour cream on my corn on the cop Wow. Hell,
rather than buttering it. I think maybe she butters and
that sounds really good, says it's the best way to
enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
I've even thought and then I believe it's the movie,
the one about the bomb and the There We Go
where the beginning of the movie the mom takes the
someone takes a piece of bread, puts butter on it.
We've always done that, and then spins the corn in
it to put butter on it.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
We used to use the keel of the bread.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I think it's the movie War Games.
Speaker 8 (12:04):
The heel of the bread was what we used every time.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Oh with Matthew. Now, would somebody eat the bread if.
Speaker 8 (12:09):
You wanted to, you could eat the bread, but we
used it to butter the corn the whole time.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
But then, but somebody in your family didn't go not
give me that piece? Did you pass the bread around? Yeah,
you're just I've never seen it.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
You've never seen that. Never are you following the logic?
Here piece of bread, butter and the bread spin following
the logic. I got a brush that would get side
in the middle of the table.
Speaker 7 (12:27):
This question, but I asked this many times. I need
you to answer me. Please, Yes, how stupid do you
think we are? I was addressing Pat Pat. Were you
a carry Gold family or the Irish?
Speaker 5 (12:42):
No?
Speaker 7 (12:42):
No, I am now we didn't hear about that because
we used the cheap stuff.
Speaker 8 (12:46):
There's also a thing that a company called Pampered Chef
makes that's great. You put a pat of butter in
it and then it's kind of curved and you can
pull it push it around on your corn like that,
and then as the buttermell, you just pushed the little
plunger down and it puts.
Speaker 7 (13:02):
Look at the look at gilded age over there.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Would it be? Would it be great? But some family
had like some massive Rube Goldberg Goldberg device that had
like a spray paint thing.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Pick up like pee wee herns.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
We would have meals of just corn and kool aid.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
Swear to God, I we've all had.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
Then you also have a candy barn of bulls.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
Yeah, those end of the month meals were were pretty wild,
weren't They say?
Speaker 7 (13:39):
Sometimes the end of the month, there's more month than
more month than money.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
That's oh well, let's keep going. You got a letter
over there.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Here, Bob and Tom show, first time emailer. I've been
listening since seventh grade and nineteen ninety seven, Last Century kids.
I was listening today to Craig Warner and the Warner
report on phone booths. I had to mention he forgot
the phone booth references we use in blue collar trades.
(14:08):
The new kids don't get. I'm a field mechanic and
the coal mines of West Virginia.
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
When I was a new mechanic, I was messing with
the older guy training me, and he told me I
would rather shave a Bobcat's ass in a phone booth
than f with him. Now that I'm the old guy,
we changed it to a porta John because when we
say phone booth they have no idea what we're talking.
Thank you for all the laughs. Enjoyed seeing you in
Charleston last year of Charleston, West Virginia. Josh keeps supporting
(14:37):
new metal music. We'll do tomm You may want to
look into a three wheel bike. We would all feel
safer with you on wheel.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
No, thank you?
Speaker 3 (14:46):
What was the what was the expression again, I'd rather shave?
Speaker 5 (14:49):
What is it?
Speaker 7 (14:49):
I'd rather shave a Bobcat's ass in a phone booth
than f with him.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
That's a great, great story, or f with him? I
think another I'd rather shave a Bobcats asked a portage
on then that's a good one. Yeah, yeah, must get scratched. Yeah,
it's gonna be.
Speaker 7 (15:08):
Dear Bob and Tom Show. Do you need an air
horn for your bike? Not one of those prissy bike bells,
more bang for your buck, Tom.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Tom is a bike bell.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
We're talking about getting him one.
Speaker 5 (15:21):
If I buy you a La Cucaracha horn.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
Will you know they have tiny little programmable horse that
you attached to your handlebar, and that would that would
scare people? Is any tune you want?
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Because what you tradition when you when you come upon someone,
you go on your left. But yeah, I think would
be I think maybe getting some kind.
Speaker 5 (15:43):
Of a bell.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
The problem that my girls have them on their bikes,
but again there's girls.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
When I hear somebody on a bike, My habit though,
is to turn around and like inadvertent step into their
path right on your left. What was that bike? Hang
on a second before we break, here comes Tom on
his bike. Hang nice day today. I hope you're enjoying it.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Here, Bob a Tom Show as a fellow cyclist, Tom Jack,
I'm curious, can.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
You would you?
Speaker 7 (16:19):
Will you share what kind of bike you ride? That
Scott in Lansing, Michigan.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
It's a Huffy. I'm gonna go with Huffy whin it's track.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's a a hybrid.
Speaker 5 (16:32):
I have a track.
Speaker 8 (16:33):
I have a track.
Speaker 5 (16:34):
I have a trick.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
It started as gaelec. No, no, it's it's been modified drastically.
So what does that mean as an engine in the
it's like a Franken bike.
Speaker 8 (16:44):
You can just say, I don't know already put it
together for you at a bike No, no.
Speaker 5 (16:49):
It was one thing. Didn't you had it altered? Did
you put it together? Yeah? You did.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
I mean I had my friends at the bike line
do it.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
But yeah, So you didn't put it together.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Special brakes or something, just some exotic stuff.
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Yeah, yeah, the exotic except was a basket and those streamers,
you know, like like Peewee with the lions.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
I remember it when I was a little boy.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
If you had a basket on your bike, you would
just be mocked, of.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Course, Dorothy.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah, the kids are so awful in general and to
each other.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
If you were a girl with a basket, though, it
was fine. Isn't that interesting?
Speaker 3 (17:36):
But I had a paper route, so I had a
I had like this big double basket in the back
of my shwind Tornado. It was just relentlessly mocked.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
But yours was you had a reason, but you're still
going to get Yeah, hey, Tom, does your husband have
a bike.
Speaker 8 (17:52):
Oh you're not going to ride that bike down dirt
hills and ramps and jumps. No, no, I'm just saying
that's why they mocked you.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
Oh, there are a lot of reasons they mocked me.
You're not riding down dirt hills and jumps now.
Speaker 8 (18:05):
When he was a kid.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Yeah, no, that I had a I bought a like
a thirty dollars bike, and then I modified that and
I put the course the banana seat on it.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
Oh yeah, see you were mocked.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yes, yeah, Chick and I both wanted to get the
one that the sting ray that had the stick shift
on it, snick.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Shift and the leopard seat.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Yeah oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
It's a different time.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Yeah. In any event, my bike is that it's like
three different bikes thrown together.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
Of course it is. It's very hard to find. Would
you just buy one b.
Speaker 8 (18:45):
Why what's wrong with the one?
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I did have it, and then I kind of started
using it for different things and changed it like a cross.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Yeah, okay, it makes sense.
Speaker 7 (18:54):
I answer. I wouldn't have read the letter.
Speaker 5 (18:58):
Nobody liked that answer.
Speaker 7 (18:59):
All I know is we need a horn that can
be attached to a bike that makes this sound.
Speaker 5 (19:03):
That's all we need.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
