Do You Know My Mommy? (Airdate 4/8/2026)

Coming to you from the Bob and Sherry Show Studios, sponsored by Kohl's. I just love you guys. It is my pleasure to present the Bob and Sherry Show. I love your show. I love your positivity. I love the jokes. It just makes my day. And now from the Bob and Sherry Studios, it's the Bob and Sherry Show. Oh, hello everyone. Let me just say that the entire show has something going on today. So you can hear Lamar. Lamar and Carla don't feel well. They woke up with, I think, Lamar, you have this weird respiratory virus that I've been reading about. Yeah, I got that rattling deal going on. Yeah, that Victorian, that sickly Victorian death rattle. um i didn't i didn't say anything yesterday because it was so touch and go but on monday afternoon my mom had to have emergency eye surgery the retina in her left eye detached so my mom was i was like mom i got out here late friday night so i'm in utah i got out here late friday night and i watched the vision in her eye deteriorate and i was like we have we've got to call the eye doctor first thing Monday morning. And she's like, well, I would really, when you finish work, I'd really rather go to Walmart and buy a toaster. I said, is that a fact? Well, let's call the eye doctor because you're blind in your left eye. And I'm a DJ, but from what I've seen on the internet, that's not a typical thing that you just have to happen, like where you just go randomly blind in one eye. So we call the doctor and she describes the symptoms and they're like, how long has this been going on? And she said, well, you know, it started a few days ago, but today I can't see anything. So they were like, how quickly can you get here? And my mom said, well, what do you have available this week? They were like, no, today, right now. Can you come in right now? Well, my daughter is here and she has a radio show and a podcast. You would love it. I was in an episode and she is working. These people are like, ma'am, you're having an emergency. You need to come in right now. Luckily it's, you know, show is over. So I slam her into the car and we go and I can tell almost right away, although I do not understand anything that's being said, I can tell this, whatever this is, it's so bad. The doctor walks into the room and he says to my mom, well, the bottom line is you need surgery right now. And so that is the story of how we ended up with emergency retina surgery. My mom, I had to bring her home with a giant eye patch and she has to be face down and looking at the floor. And she's only allowed to get up for 10 minutes, once an hour to like eat something or go to the bathroom and then back face down. She is not a good patient. She's very naughty. And I've had to yell at her a lot. So imagine my delight when I show up this morning and Lamar's like, and and carla just literally you guys as the show was beginning carla walked into the room and accused lamar of getting her sick is that not what just happened it is exactly and then turn it around walk closed the door went back to bed yeah i think if you get sick it's important to be able to blame somebody. Yeah. Oh, yeah. But poor Lamar, like, he just woke up like this. He has no one to blame. I don't know what to say. I don't know what to say. He has no idea where he – it's nasty, though. I've been reading about it. Like, did it hit you all at once? Like, your head felt like it was spilled with cement? Yeah. I went to sleep feeling great and woke up like, oh, my gosh. Yeah, it was crazy. It really was. well the the day before i flew out the day before i flew out to my mom's i have no i'm so uncoordinated and ungraceful and awful i'm trotting through my house and i ran into a column at full speed and my my left foot turned into a green and purple balloon and i had to i still had to like get here so i'm limping through the airport i'm putting ice on it yeah we're just the whole injured list is here with you today. But what a delight. We're all so excited. And because we didn't do it yesterday, and this is my fault why we didn't do it yesterday, you guys, I was so distracted. Trying to work with one ear, like the headphone off one ear so that I can hear my mom if she calls me or tries to get into mischief. Because she's going to lose her eye if she doesn't behave. So straight ahead, if you missed it, maybe you've seen something on your social media but you didn't get to hear it, we'll play Jim Lovell's message to the Artemis crew. How's that? This is cool. Yeah. It's so, so wonderful. I'm sorry. We should have done it yesterday. It's all my fault. Why don't you come kick me in my bad foot, poke my mother in her bad eye, and then make fun of Lamar's cough. Why don't you do that? That'll make you feel better. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. It's the Talkin' Lamar podcast with the Bob and Sherry Show's Lamar. What are you talking about? Talking food. What's he talking about? Great stories. You're still talking? Humorous takes on everything pop culture. That's what I'm talking about! And stuff that he couldn't do on the regular show. But why are we all standing here talking? The Talkin' Lamar podcast drops every Friday on the Bob and Sherry Show app and wherever you get your podcasts. Ha ha ha! He gets what I'm talking about! And now, see the Talkin' Lamar podcast on the Bob and Sherry Show YouTube channel. It's the stuff we wouldn't, couldn't, shouldn't do on the regular show. The Oddcast. Oddcast on the free Bob and Sherry app. So astronaut Jim Lovell, who died last August at the age of 97, he was the commander for the Apollo 13 mission. And a lot of people will know who he is because of the Apollo 13 movie. Well, Tom Hanks, Tom Hanks, right? Right. He had been following the ongoing preparations for the Artemis mission. And he, of course, passed away before it could launch. But to the surprise of the Artemis crew, he left them a little message. Hello, my heart of the two. This is Apollo astronaut Jim Lovell. Welcome to my old neighborhood. When Frank Foreman and Bill Andrews and I ordered the moon on Apollo 8, we got humanity's first up-close look at the moon and got a view of the home planet that inspired and united people around the world. I'm proud to pass that torch on to you as you swing around the moon and play the groundwork for missions to Mars. for the benefit of all. It's a historic day, and I know how busy you'll be, but don't forget to enjoy the view. So, Reed, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy, and all the great teams supporting you, good luck and Godspeed from all of us here on the good earth. That was an awesome message from Jim Lovell. Very cool to hear him. Welcome us to the neighborhood. It's going to be a great day. Thank you. This has been so thrilling. And the images that Artemis is sending back are breathtaking. Like your idea of the moon, this, you know, lifeless gray rock, when there are all these beautiful colors and textures. Have you guys just not been absolutely captivated? Yeah, that was the thing about it. I think there was a lot more color on the moon than anything that we've ever seen before as you're going by on that. I think that's the one thing. And it's when you see the moon from a different angle with the big blue marble that we're currently on is breathtaking. Our beautiful, magical, fragile little world that we are not taking awesome care of. Let's be so real. This has just been I'm in for a space nerd like me. This has just been so much fun and so incredible. And I have to say my pleasure at how the flat earthers must be losing their minds is almost embarrassing. Sure. The joy I take in that is almost shameful. The flat earthers and the deniers are still coming out going, no, it's not real. It's AI. I'm just like, oh, stop. I just want to say, like, I see a lot of posts about, well, you'll notice that, you know, blah, blah, blah. And they say that you can't do that in space. I'm seeing folks betraying that they didn't even pay attention in third grade, much less anywhere beyond that. Can we have, can we all agree that it's okay sometimes to have things that are wonderful and that inspire awe? Could we have that? Could we have it? Because we're having it right now at a moment when the world needs it. Yes. Morons in the News is next. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. Morons in the News is sponsored by Progressive Insurance. Protect your home and auto. Save when you bundle. Get a quote at Progressive.com. Here they are. You are a hybrid. Half idiot, half moron. It's the Bob and Sherry Show with morons in the news. There are a lot of possible stupid things that can be said at a board member meeting for a school board. This one just might take the cake. At a meeting of the Washington County Board of Education in Tennessee, board member Keith Irvin can be heard saying to a fellow student he was sitting next to, and she's like a student person on the board. He says, God, you're hot. Do you know that? Where do you go to school at? And everybody laughed. Why don't you let that comment set for a minute? Keith Irvin? His name is Keith Irvin? Irvin, not Irvin. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Because I was like, I know some people lose their mind after a divorce, but what? Oh, good. Oh, okay. So anyway, so actually says that, not long after the meeting, a couple of days, a petition was launched to remove not just Creepy Keith, but also Washington County School Superintendent Jerry Boyd. So far, it's garnered nearly 2,500 signatures. Nobody is laughing now. Now, an emergency meeting has been called to address the incident. The board released a statement saying, One of our colleagues, Keith Irvin, made a grossly inappropriate comment toward our student board member. Mr. Irvin has explained that he meant nothing offensive and that we have simply misunderstood his intentions. Mr. Irvin knows his own intentions, but the rest of us have to judge his words and his actions. What we saw was shocking. He objectified and diminished a young woman publicly. No explanation can justify that. They're set to consider a motion to censure, creepy Keith. But I don't think that censure is going to get it done. I think Keith's got to go. I mean, he's got to go. And he may be taking the head guy with him because, you know, come on now. No, I agree with you. I don't see how this guy keeps his job. No way. No, no. He has no way. Creepy man has to go. The good old boy network can't be that deep. I mean, he's got to go. Well, I think we're all relieved, though, that it wasn't country singer. Keith Urban doesn't need any more bad publicity at this time. All right. Today's moron of the day is Andres Cabrera Sanchez. He's 25 years old now. He was one of a large group of alleged narcotics. They call them candy men. he was selling drugs out of a restaurant in Brentwood. So he is arraigned and he has to go to court. I know that not everybody had the benefit of like adult mentors or parents even. Like I, you know, I know full well that not all of us come up, you know, with loving adults and stable households. But son, when you are in trouble for being a drug dealer and you show up for court in a black hoodie with an enormous marijuana leaf and the words roll up, you're not helping yourself at all. No, I would say no. This guy, the judge, the judge was like, what? You're here on marijuana. You're here on drug charges. You are being charged with selling drugs. And what you thought would be good to wear to court is your big roll-up hoodie. These are like the people that would show up in, if you ever watch Judge Judy, they would show up in Judge Judy's courtroom in offensive baseball hats and T-shirts. Judge Judy would rip them a new one. So he's not only charged with everything except for running a grow operation. he's also charged with possession of illegal firearms so you're in trouble for holding possessions selling using and illegal guns and it didn't occur to you to wear just a plain t-shirt to court we're gonna post it up on our facebook and when you see it you'll go oh this was a choice because that looks brand new. This was a decision that he made intentional. That's how you get to be the moron of the day. And this is the Bob and Sherry Show. Bob and Sherry books, swag, and the mother of all mothers merch.

And they're like, she said, we have an appointment with H&R Block as the doors close. So Lamar, I open her phone. There's nothing in the calendar on the phone. Who does that remind you of? And so the next thing I do is I Google H&R Block. and my mom lives in a pretty good sized little city. So there's a lot of H&R Block locations. And this is the story of how I began calling H&R Block offices. Hi, do you know my mommy? And who is your mommy? Well, this is my mommy's name. And she said, we have an appointment today to do her taxes. No, I'm sorry. We don't know your mommy. next H&R Block hi I'm wondering if you know my mommy third H&R Block office ding ding ding jackpot they know my mommy but the appointment is not for Monday the appointment is for today Wednesday which we can't go anyway because my mom cannot lift she has to be face down she's not allowed so I say to the woman all right well I'm her daughter we need to file an extension and the woman said well do you have her power of attorney I said yes ma'am but I'm I'm in a hospital where they just took her back for emergency surgery so I don't have it with me because I didn't expect that this was going to be the day that we were having so there's this pause and I said listen my mom is having emergency eye surgery because she's blind in that eye right now there's no way that anything can happen here pause pause pause well we'll file an extension thank you and i made an appointment for next month for her to go in and then i sat down i mean i'm in a sweat at this point because i don't i don't know i can't figure out anything that's happening then her phone rings and it's the dentist just reminding you of your appointment today oh no no no no there won't be so and which was also not anywhere written down so now i call I'm like, no, no, she can't come in. She's having emergency eye surgery. Oh, well, do you have her power of attorney? Yeah, I have it tattooed on my thigh because apparently I need it all the time now. So everything's good. Tax extension filed. Dentist appointment changed. Mom lying face down with her eye patch on. You guys. What a calm life you live. A calm life. guys. You just haven't lived until you've had to do something. It's just, it's crazy time. And everyone who's been in this position is like, oh yeah, I remember that. It's the Bob and Sherry show.

I never heard anything quite like that. Luck. The people in this room were so surprised by this because she was really one of all of our favorite characters on the show. We thought she was, Max said, but she was the most complex character. Lamar said it was a surprise every time. But Lisa Kudrow, Lisa Kudrow said she really struggled because even her own talent agency referred to her as the sixth friend. and she felt that she was the afterthought on that show, which is wild. So let's start with when you saw this, what was your first reaction? It just doesn't make any sense because it was like you couldn't. I never felt like I could define exactly who she was. Well, she's sort of goofy, but then again, she's not. And she's got, it's just like with the singing of the cats. she was a very remarkable she was not number six on my list i'll tell you she was not i really liked her character there was a super um interesting article that i read where they tried to break it down so of course rachel green's character jennifer aniston she was the breakout star right yeah 27 episodes had rachel's name in the title that's the most of any the set so she's the number one friend according to this number two is matt leblanc's joey and i and i know max is going to be like what because you thought he was the least interesting character right yeah i thought he was very one-dimensional i would have thought chandler would have been number two well who got the a spinoff he was the only character that had his own spinoff now didn't last no but he did number three shock and awe um david schwimmer ross's character and they say because of his chemistry with jennifer aniston he had the biggest plot lines of any of the actors he was my least if you think about that yeah but if you think about that look at how much of that show revolved around ross's life his relationship troubles his all of it ross was really central next up is chandler um chandler they said that he was stuck somewhere in the middle in the Friends universe, and it wasn't until the marriage to Monica that he really, that his character really elevated. Shock and awe, Monica Gellar, Courtney Cox, the fifth friend. The fifth friend. Her popularity, they said, did not stand the test of time like some of the other characters. And then in sixth place, Lisa Kudrow and Phoebe Buffay. I always felt that a lot of the comedy for her was she would surprisingly say things you didn't expect her to say or have an insight you didn't expect her to have. And I always thought that she was the most interesting of the characters. Yes. Well, listen to what this journalist said. Phoebe's lack of romance with another main cast member and Lisa Kudrow being out overshadowed by the other women on the show is what left her the sixth friend. And if you think about it, yeah, because it was Monica Chandler, Ross and Rachel, never Phoebe and anyone. Yeah, it's true. Not anybody on the show anyhow. And so when the show began, Courtney Cox was like the star. She was the star of the, she was the big actor that they hung the vehicle around. But it was Jennifer Aniston who became the breakout. Everyone had her hair cut, blah, blah, blah. And so Lisa Kudrow, who is brilliant and she's an Emmy winner. She's super talented. And every time you see her in something, you're like, oh, I love her. You're delighted. Yeah. She feels all these years later like, you know, I was just overlooked. She said, quote, I felt like the most expendable person on the cast. You know, it's a shame that she feels that way. Really is. Because that is, I mean, that's what she thinks about it, of course. But I'm hearing voices. Is anybody else hearing voices? You're hearing voices because Siri just activated a World War I newsreel on my tablet. And I can't figure out how to make it stop. Listen, Sherry, the only thing about it is I'm just happy other people are hearing the voices because sometimes I wonder. You guys, I just turned my tablet. I just turned my tablet off and it's still there. It finally just shut off. So we're going to pause here. Smooth, baby. We're going to pause here. I'm going to go check on my mom, and then I'm going to ring up an exorcist, and we'll be right back with everyone needs a laugh coming up. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. What was this?

Talkback. With the free Bob and Sherry app. Hi, everybody. It's Megan from New Hampshire. I'm listening to Thursday's show and the talk back about the woman who went to a Catholic school and the little boy who is misspelling the F word. Coming from personal experience with a little one who will exploit any loophole she finds, he knew how to spell that word. He was spelling it wrong on purpose because technically, if he doesn't spell it right, it's not the F word. so you know I could totally see my little one doing that not and out of any like mean-spiritedness but yeah if there's a loophole she'll find it um so just thought I'd throw that out there I'm also still worried for the youth of America but I do think that he definitely knew how to spell the f-word um I also went to a Catholic school but thankfully I was past the the physical punishment era. I was there when it was just, you know, they would abuse you with words and I was going to hell and, you know, they did real good with that Catholic guilt because it's still strong. So yeah, that's all. Just thought I'd throw it out there. Yeah, he totally knew how to spell that word. Talk to you all later. Bye. I love that I got past the, you know, the corporal punishment of Catholic schools. Now we're just hurting you with words. Verbal abuse. Which probably sticks with you longer than the physical. Oh my God, yeah. God. It's like they were teaching the nuns. Okay, fine. Now you're going to, sister, you're going to have to shift. No more rulers to the hand. What you're going to do now is we've got a list of appropriate insults that you're allowed, that the church has allowed for you to use on students. when I think how um we how diabolical some of this was and how casually we all just accept it that this was like this was just part of your school day and it's where it was worse for earlier generations when they were beaten with like my father was left-handed and so they beat him they hit his left hand until he would write with his right hand so he ended up with dextrous as an adult oh this is very common lamar this isn't even like just like an isolated incident one school right max yeah that's true my for men of my father's generation left-handedness was a mark of the devil and so it had to be it had to be beaten out of him but you i would like you to imagine going up to a person who's enrolling their child in first grade and saying oh oh hey we're going to just beat the snot out of this kid anytime we feel like it these today parents are outraged corrected. Back then the parents were going, yep, if he's out of line, go ahead and hit him. And I do want to say in defense of the nuns who beat my father into right-handedness, he was of the devil. They were not wrong. They just didn't beat him enough. They didn't hit him nearly hard enough or often enough. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. Instant access to the podcast, oddcast, and more with the free Bob and Sherry app. It's time for everyone needs a laugh. Here is comedian Jenny Tan. Hi, so I currently live in New York City, and what I've noticed about Americans is that they've never seen this combination of person before. Like, they've never seen an Asian-Australian. So sometimes what happens is I'll be walking down the street talking on my phone, an American will hear me. They'll turn around and go, was that an Australian accent I just heard? And when they look at me, I go And then I'm back on the phone again like, oh, these Americans are so bloody gullible. It's great, but I'm in America on the O-1 visa right now. It's an artist visa. And what I had to do for this was spend two entire years preparing paperwork, hire a lawyer, drop 15 grand, and now I finally get to live in America, I learned about this thing they have called undocumented migrants. I'm like, that was an option the entire time? And so I started reading up more on these undocumented migrants, and did you guys know that in America, there's 14 million undocumented migrants? Yeah, 14 million undocumented migrants. I'm like, that sounds documented. But I'm travelling all around the world as an Asian woman. I have noticed the way people perceive me, yeah? Like, I've noticed that as an Asian woman, no matter what I do, it kind of just comes across as cute. For example, here is me when I'm happy. here is me when I'm sad even when I'm angry I look cute like I was having an argument with my housemate the other day it looked like I was doing a k-pop dance I was like no it's your turn to take out the trash right now but I've been thinking a lot about this you know and I have a theory my theory is all Asians are cute. Yeah. I think all Asians are cute. And I think that's why no one takes Kim Jong-un's threats seriously. He is cute. He goes, we will attack. I'm like, oh really? With your little nicky wickies. What are you attacking? The dessert menu? But I've been thinking so much about this, you know, like what's your name up at the front here? Yeah. Jack? Jack, what do you think is the cutest ethnicity of all time? Asian Australians. Asian Australians? Wow. Yeah. That's very nice. What a good save. I have an answer. I think it's Japanese people, yeah? I think Japanese people are the cutest of all time because Japanese people are so cute, we've forgotten about their war crimes. I am going there. They go, sorry about the past. Here is Uniqlo. And we all go, wow, this heat tech is amazing. Japanese people are so good. Hey, you guys have been wonderful. Have a great night. I've been Jenny's here.

So I've been really busy with my mom and everything. but I was scrolling Facebook last night, Lamar, and I saw that Carla posted. I love my husband. We just had a wonderful camping trip and everything was so fun until he started hacking. So I'm guessing that her coming in earlier to accuse you of making her sick. She was actually suspicious of you before you got, you must've started off with just a tickle and a cough. because she's been suspicious of you for days now yeah she has she has and now i'm now i have to sleep in my office now but it's too late she's already got it so i don't know what else to say i mean i don't know listen she can't she can't you have to be punished you have to even though she already has it and it's too late you still have to be punished you know that well i think she's gonna punish me here's how her punishment goes like if i'm sick she takes care of me and She's like, you on a tuna fish sandwich? And I'm like, yeah. And she goes, but it's like I fixed a tuna fish sandwich. And I'm like, oh, my God. Okay, desperate times. I said, I know you're not going to put any broccoli in it. I know you're not going to put any this and that and whatever. I said, would it be too much trouble? I've already got them crushed. Could you drop a few walnuts in there? She goes, yeah, I guess. so you know dude you're lucky she opened the can crushed walnuts and broccoli this is carla the three ingredient queen the tuna the mayonnaise you might have gotten some celery and that's if she felt like chopping it yeah this is true this is true but see now this is fixing the reverse she's now i'm gonna i'm gonna start feeling better She's going to be sick. Now, I'm not going to – I'll feed her wonderful things. Wonderful things. Oh, we know you will. We know you will. But I live that – remember when I was sick, Kevin brought me a potato and a ramekin of peanut butter. So I feel your pain, brother. I feel it. I feel it. So just real quick, Lamar, tuna, mayonnaise, walnuts, broccoli. What else goes into your tuna salad when you make it? I like to do some jalapeno chopped up. And a little bit of cucumber. A little bit of cucumber. No celery, no onion, no. Oh, no onion, yes. Onion, yes. Purple onion, yes. No celery. Don't want the celery. Oh, purple onion, no celery. You'd dream if you thought that woman was going to make that. Oh, yeah. We know better. We know better. I'm lucky the candy hit me upside the head. Yeah, and you're lucky it was mayo and not miracle whip. You best count your blessings, Mr. Wall. You still have fingers to count with. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. Leave us a talkback with the free Bob and Sherry app. Hey, this is Darcy in Oregon, and I just listened to the episode on 122 about the guy getting so stoned he called the ambulance.

Just go to BobandSherry.com. All right, Miss Sherry, today would have been yesterday. I haven't heard today's show. But yesterday on the show, you talked to Max about the Scranton Second Sight. Please elaborate. My great-grandmother was a full-blooded Cherokee that walked the trail of tears. Her last name was Scranton. anyway um i'm just curious what what you meant by scranton second sight the only other thing i can think of is scranton pennsylvania all right hi guys okay so um it's scranton pennsylvania and this is the scranton second sight like i have the sicilian second sight which um is very spooky and max back me up here yes it really does work like sometimes i just know something before i should know it and it might be something simple like your name or it might be something more um detailed and it tends to be dark and spooky because you know it's the sicilian second sight now the scranton the scranton second sight is extremely practical max who possesses the scranton second sight can walk up to your car eyeball it and let you know how much longer you have before you should rotate or replace your tires. Okay. Okay. Here's another use for the Scranton Second Sight. Lesser men who don't have it, they need to rely on things like timers and thermometers and cookbooks. Whereas Max just knows at an instinctive psychic level, how much more time that meatloaf needs in the oven before it comes out. It's the Scranton Second Sight. It's practical. It's wholesome. It's useful. It's also known as the Lackawanna Visions. The Lackawanna Visions, yeah. Lackawanna. Here's a great example of Max's Lackawanna Vision. I don't care what the Weather Channel told you, and I don't care what the sky looks like. Son, you're going to need a hoodie. It's about to turn cold a little bit later today. Max has these uncanny gifts. he just can't monetize them no sure because like everything in my life anything that i have an ability you can't make money that's amazing there's just no way to make money with that like people will pay to have somebody read their palm and tell them when they're going to discover love but nobody even throws max a sausage if he reminds them that it's time for new tires and to get a sweater. It's a, it's a cruel world. And I'm sorry, Max, but you are the man with this grant in second sight. All right. Straight ahead on the show, the most unromantic truths about marriage and coming up later this week, people's movie critic is going to hack and wheeze his way through project. Hail Mary. It's the Bob and Sherry show. Can you believe this is sponsored by hair volume from new Nordic? You read it once. I don't believe that. And then you read it again. I can't believe this. It's Bob and Sherry's. I can't believe this. I can't believe this. Lamar, how long have you and Carla been married? How many years now? Married 17, been together for 24. We've been married 13. We've been together for, well, we got together in 2008. So someone else can have to do that math for me. We've been together a long time. We've been married 13 years. I stumbled across something about marriage, the unromantic truths that make long marriages work. So I thought I'd run some of these by you and by everyone else who's married, and we'll see if we agree. The first one made me laugh out loud. The first one was marriage is about having someone to calm you down. Sorry, I've never been married, but I certainly could see the humor in that. Or maybe it's about you having somebody to calm down. Either way. Either or, yeah. I, of course, cannot speak for all women, but let me speak for many women when I say having your husband tell you, you need to calm down, does not, in fact, make you calm down, does it? No, it does not. Has that been your experience? yes have you ever said to Carla calm down and get a grip and that went well for you I've never said it I've never said it I know better than to say that that's because you're a smart man that's and that explains your success in life is you know when to keep your thoughts yeah marriage now this one I would have to agree with um marriage is about having someone who loves you anyway. Meaning you're maybe not making all the best choices for your health or your wellness or in any area, but here's a person who loves you anyway. So I would agree with that. This next one, I do not agree with, and I don't think you're going to agree with it either. Marriage is about not feeling bad about being gross. I don't want to be gross. Oh, no, no, no. I don't want to inflict that on anybody. No gross. Where do you come down? There's no gross. Nobody can be gross. We're not doing gross. If there was any grossness, there wouldn't have been seven years, much less the last 17. No, no grossness. No. I mean, and I guess we have to define like one person's gross as another person's just mildly relaxed, I guess. But, like, just because I've been with Kevin for a long time doesn't mean I still don't take a shower. You know? Like, all of this. Yes. All of this. I use a fork for dinner. Like, I think that you can get too relaxed. Okay, manners. Yeah, manners. I don't think, no matter how long you've been together or how much you love each other, there's no excuse for not having manners for each other. There's manners. Privacy and manners. That makes a big difference. Now, this next one I think is fair, but it's also it can be unfair to your spouse. Marriage is about having a permanent plus one. Yeah, that's true. You're always going to have a date for so-and-so's wedding. but I think that you also have to keep in mind that just because this person's married to you and we deal with this a lot in our world just because Carla loves you she may not want to join you for the Frito pie judging contest 3,000 miles away on a Saturday yeah like she may not want to be your plus one for everything you have to know you have to know that like I have to know that everything she does she doesn't need me tagging along and vice versa there's some things that she goes and does yeah and she doesn't need me around and you know and it's okay and if and remember if you quarrel about that it's not helpful to tell her to calm down we've found that that is the opposite thing all right and then here's one more and then i'll post this marriage the real perk of marriage the real thing that makes long marriages work is give and take oh oh it's give and take that's all it is is give and take and if you have too much given and too much taken and not enough back and forth that's where things go sideways and that's that's where like you'll start yelling i have to do everything around here you don't do anything you need to calm down and that's when the police have to come so hey hey you know what i love to do this is the most fun for us she will say she wants to do something and i will look her dead in the eye and i say i forbid you from doing that and then we both wait for about three seconds and we laugh out loud a lot oh yeah a lot my my husband is unaware that there's a word called submission. He's unaware that word exists because he ain't never seen it. And you know what? That's how he likes it. Some of y'all like some feisty. Until you tell me to calm down. All right, I'm going to post this so that everybody can see these very unromantic truths about marriage. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. The Bob and Sherry website. The Oddcast. Contest info. BobandSherry.com. Not all cars, But most cars, new cars today that you buy, they come with keyless systems so that you can leave your key in your pocket or in your purse. And you walk out and when you get to your car, you can unlock it by just touching it with your hands and you get inside and you push the button. Yeah, yeah. Well, there are bad guys out there that are using these radio devices. and they can get the signals of your car keys when you get out and get in and lock and unlock your vehicles without you knowing it. And what they do is they use these relay amplifiers and transmitters and it extends the signal of the key. So it's not just in that little bit of area where you're standing. It comes far enough out that they can grab the key fob signal. They can copy it and then they have access to your car, even without the key fob. So a very simple way to protect yourself from car thieves like this is if you wrap the smart key fob in aluminum foil. Now, this is not a problem for the people I work with here and probably for a lot of our listeners, because we all have aluminum foil hats, tin foil hats. So you can take some of that aluminum foil off with your tinfoil hat and you can wrap up your keys. Because what will happen is, even with it wrapped in aluminum foil, if it's in your pocket or in your purse and you walk up to the car, it will read that and it will let you in. But the bad guys can't get the signal to go far enough out for them to capture it from a distance. So every one of the people that listen to us, those little hats that nobody knows you got that you wear. Just get a strip of the foil off of there and wrap your keys in it, and I think you'll be safe. You know, I saw something about wrapping your car keys in tinfoil, and I didn't read it, so I didn't know what it was for. This makes so much sense. I hate that we have to live in a world where we're all so paranoid and weird. The reason that I didn't click that link, Lamar, I'm going to be so honest with you, I already feel like such a walking bag of kookiness that I was afraid to fish some Reynolds wrap car keys out of my bag. But you've made me feel better about that. Are you going to do it? You don't even have to take them out. You can just leave them in your pocket. I think I might try that because it always bothers me that we have such easy access to our car that you can just... Listen, if I don't have my key to the car in my pocket and Carla's got hers, I can actually touch her arm and then touch the car and it'll unlock. So that tells me that there's a lot of stuff going on here. So I think that might be something I'm going to try. Yeah. Especially for like Carla in a parking lot, you know, alone. Yeah. That feels very scary. Okay. Yeah. I'm going to start wrapping. I'm going to wrap my head in tinfoil. I have my car keys. What was I thinking? I have never owned a car that had remote key. Every car I've owned, key only. Because they're so old. Well, honey, based on your taste, you never will. You like them. You like the vintage. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. The Bob and Sherry website. The Oddcast. Contest info. BobandSherry.com. So you guys, there's this author that I follow on threads named Authorist Rosie. And she posted something that just made my eyes fall right out of my head. And so we're going to discuss it, okay? Here it goes. She's 28 years old. She's lived in her house for 10 years. It's a quiet neighborhood, and she's never had any issues. She keeps to herself. The neighbors keep to themselves. Everything's fine. Okay, here we go. She writes, a few days ago, I was organizing and cleaning my home. My new neighbor, mid-30s, recently moved in with her husband, came over and introduced herself. The conversation started normally just basically small talk about the neighborhood. Then, out of nowhere, she told me that she feels uncomfortable because of how I present myself inside my own home. I was confused and asked, what do you mean? She explained that she's seen her husband looking out their window toward my house, and she believes he's been watching me while I'm inside. She specifically mentioned that I sometimes wear comfortable home clothes like a tank top and shorts while cleaning, and that this seems to be the issue from her perspective So Rosie said I paused for a moment because I honestly didn expect that to be brought up as a problem I told her that what I wear inside my own home isn't really something that I can control for other people's comfort. And that if her husband is looking into my property, that's something she might want to address with him. And I suggested that instead of confronting me, she should have a conversation with her husband about not watching other people through windows. She didn't take that well. she became physically visibly upset and said i was being dismissive and rude for quote not taking her concerns seriously i told her i'm not trying to be rude but i don't think it's fair to be held responsible for someone else's behavior in my own home the conversation ended awkwardly and she left annoyed now i'm wondering if i handled it wrong girl you did not handle it wrong her as i understand it her husband is you're inside your house vacuuming and your husband is peeping at you through your window her husband's a peeping and she's making it yeah as a sensible person lamar is a sensible decent hard-working honest man what the hell like you take this one on for me thanks so basically what i would be doing is i would be standing out in the yard or somewhere and I'm staring over into the neighbor's window and Carla, my wife comes up to me and says, what are you doing? I don't know what else to do. She's, you see how she's dressed in her house there. If you look, see, no, to put your head to the right, just a little bit. See, see how you see it. I don't know what else to do. What am I supposed to do? I'm standing out here trying to mind my own business, but all of a sudden I'm distracted by this well you want me to go talk to him yeah go talk to him what what what carl snatched me ball-headed it would be if if if kevin said to me well i can't i can't help it look what she's wearing that the problem would be him not the neighbor right the comment section the comment section was gold. One of my favorites was a woman who said, I've dealt with this before. I told the offended to not stare into my window. So I started cleaning my house naked and making coffee topless in the kitchen. My house is my house and I shall wear whatever I want. If you don't want to see a chubby little white lady running the vacuum, don't look. It's simple. Another person, another person said that's what we call a dictum someone who behaves like a t and then acts like a victim that's a great one that is great that is great oh my gosh and and so now now let me pivot to the neighbor who came over i don't know i can't imagine being in a world where you're so what is the word hypnotized that you that your husband is a voyeur peeping tom and you're blaming the person he's peeping at what's the what's the word for that condition you see you don't know because you can't even imagine i can't i can't even conjure a word for that sherry if if lamar lived across the street from three women who used to be in cirque de soleil who cleaned their house naked while swinging from the ceiling, and Carla caught him looking, she'd punch his face in and then bring them a cake. Sherry. That is how it needs to be done. He'd go from being the people's movie critic to the peeping movie critic. The peeping movie critic. And Carla would, because I know Carla. I would go to be the formerly known movie critic. That's what I would have been, the formerly known. He'd be the late Lamar Richardson. Yeah, the late movie. But I know Carla. Carla would, she'd march over to those Cirque du Soleil gymnasts and say, it is not y'all's fault that my husband is a disgusting pervert. Now I made you a king. She'll come right back over and hit you again. All right. Well, y'all, we have lost our minds as a species. It's the Bob and Sherry show. History is full of stories that don't fit neatly into any category. The True Weird Stuff podcast hosted by Sherry Lynch tells the strange, overlooked, and downright bizarre stories like Elmer McCurdy, the outlaw who became a sideshow attraction, or the hobo king, ruler of a world most people never see. If you love oddities, forgotten figures, and the kind of stories that make you say, how have I never heard this before? True Weird Stuff is the podcast for you. Listen to True Weird Stuff any way you get your podcasts. Leave us a talkback with the free Bob and Sherry app. Hi, Sherry, Max, Lamar, Doc. Hi, everyone. My name is Annika. I'm calling from Maine. And I've been listening for like 25 years. Thanks for making my commutes and my days a lot more fun. and I just wanted to say that I listened to you to such a degree that my son, who is five, and he has a lot to say, was in the car with me and he was just kind of quiet and then he asked me very seriously, does this podcast ever end? I just really like the idea that in his world, Bob and Sherry is just like an endless, just an endless stream that surrounds him whenever he's with me. All right. I hope you guys have a great rest of the month. I don't know. Have a lovely day. Okay, bye. Bye. No. Boy, from the mouths of babes. Tell your son that the podcast, like Max's Workday, never ends. There's no end. It's like the Infinity War in the Avengers. It just never ends. It has always been. it will always be even after we're all dead and gone you'll hear from uh six feet below max's grave him saying all right okay three two one i do it in my sleep i do it i have dreams about work i do you know i you know i don't know how like i don't know how normal people I don't know how normal people function like their lives are normal people have different lives than we do. Normal people live their lives and they don't like they just get up. What's it like to just get up and go to work and and just be silent and think your thoughts? Because if we were silent thinking our thoughts, the show would not exist. Right. Right. What's it? Yeah. What's it's kind of like Lamar, you don't know anybody that spends as much time as you do. Basically thinking about conversational icebreakers. That's kind of what it is. When he worked at the Budweiser warehouse, I'd call him and I'd go, how are you doing? He'd say, I'm counting trucks. Not exactly sure what that meant, but he was always counting trucks. Hey, did you ever, when you were counting trucks, come up short or extra? Like, oh, here's a truck we didn't know we had or we're missing to. Did that ever happen? No, counting. What I meant when I was counting trucks is the trucks pulled in or they're pulling out and I have to count what's on them. So we know what's on them and what comes back in. That's the tedious part of it. Well, that makes me realize that question I just asked you was really insulting. I didn't mean it that way. Sherry, it's okay. He never explained it to me. He just would say, I'm counting trucks and I never asked. All the trucks in, Lamar? Yup, they're all here. than one day. I don't know there's an extra. Okay, well, then it sounds like your job at Budweiser was a lot more complicated than we ever thought. It's the Bob and Sherry Show. Now, let's open up the Bob and Sherry Archive Vault. This is how sinister our phones are and our devices. They're listening to us. They're tracking us. So an hour ago, you were talking about how you had this cramp and mary's like you need to drink more water and go walk up and work your foot on the stairs right that happened and eat bananas and eat bananas yeah that happened an hour ago um my phone just served me up a notification that um when you live in a one floor house you could you're at risk of developing bungalow leg. What is bungalow leg? Well, yeah, that's so that's why we're doing this. And can you believe this today? So bungalow leg happens when you're not walking up and down the stairs. It happens to people who have moved to a home or apartment that's all on one level and they don't have stairs to climb and the muscles in your legs gradually weaken and become deconditioned and you get bungalow leg apparently it's a big problem in japan where people tend to live in these uh single-story homes yeah and they also have like um elevators and stuff so apparently bungalow leg is a really really serious thing but it was for people who weren't there it's the arch of my foot in the middle of the night woke up and like I was being stabbed like a charley horse or something it's in my I have bungalow foot you have bungalow foot Bob so hang on because Mary's well then you know possibly Mary's wrong with my having to drink 18 gallons of water a day and eat bananas like a monkey but she's right about she's in the kitchen working it yeah tell her hang on Mary, I have bungalow foot. Bungalow foot. It's nothing to do with the water. Listen to him turn on the sexy. She just walked away. I guess she had to do work. So here's the deal. Like, apparently, when you live in a house that has a lot of stairs, you're using your glutes, your hamstrings, your calves, your quads, and the muscles in your... But yes. Yeah. See, in the old house, in the old house, there were three floors. And I was up and down from the first to the bottom floor all day long. Probably, and I'm not exaggerating, probably 50 times a day. And then when we were at the old station, the men's room, of course, was downstairs. And I had to go down there all the time. And now you, because I've been to your house. now you basically only have to go up and down stairs when you come into the house once you're in there everything's on one level bob you have to you have to fight the menace of bungalow foot because that's what you're not kidding i do yeah you're not kidding hey the good thing is i don't have to drink so much water you know because that has nothing to do with bungalow foot well you still i mean she's right you're you know you still should be drinking water and go ahead and eat a banana it wouldn't kill you but the real issue here is your bungalow foot and you have to be very very careful to step up and down up and down up and down that's what this article about bungalow leg says step up and down up and down and um the daily burn that you know now you do on kind of a twice a month basis you probably need to bring your daily burn back and do it more than once every yeah it sounds like that doesn't it it's a great relief though thank you for telling me that that the problem has been addressed. Now, I don't think that later, you know, when you're telling your wife, I've come up with a plan to fix my bungalow foot. I don't think that's going to help in the romance area for you at all. No, I'm just really glad that I'm not single and out on the dating scene right now because I know me. And I know over dinner, I'd be thinking about it. Look what you did with Mandy Moore. Not right away. Like what I did when I had turf toe. When I had turf toe from golf and then she had that boot on her foot and I tried to relate to her and said that I had turf toe. Hey, Doc. Hey, Doc. Welcome to the family. Yeah. Doc. You've got to learn a lot. If I had given you a pop quiz that you hadn't studied for and said, we're going to talk about turf toe, would you not have thought the hobbits were somehow getting into this conversation? Pretty much. I didn't realize that Bob's foot was such a grand topic of discussion. Oh, it's a flashpoint. It's done very well for us over the years. Sherry used to call him the slew foot. The slew foot. Mandy Moore, Mandy Moore. Oh my gosh. She's so wonderful, beautiful. She's everything. If you're a fan of This Is Us, she's everything you imagined she would be, including how warm and concerned she was when bob wanted to discuss his foot situation well i was just trying to relate she she did something to her ankle and she had one of those big boots on you know so i went oh she's got a big boot on so according to this article that i read you not only need a banana but you you need to treat your bungalow foot with b vitamins do you take a b vitamin i take uh i take a c and a multivitamin so that's probably when you think of it like about twice a year, you need to get you a B vitamin according to this. I'm so tired of having to do things. I am. Now I got to worry about bungalow. Well, you don't have to worry about it. You actually, you're in the grip of it. We get the last kid out of the house and I get bungalow food. That's just my life. It's Bob and Sherry. Goodbye. Goodbye.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't want to grow up. I'm a Toys R Us kid. The guy with a million Toys R Us that I can play with. I don't want to grow up. I'm a Toys R Us kid. You got the best for so much less. You really flip your legs. From bikes to trends to video games. So you're not going to believe who wrote this. And you might already know this. I don't. But I just learned this. And it just made me laugh out loud. So this person did not write the music. Another person wrote the melody. But at the time that he wrote this song, he was working at an advertising agency. but today he's one of the best selling authors in the whole entire world and his name is James Patterson I knew you were going to say that that is crazy it's so crazy so was he working for an ad agency he was working for J. Walter Thompson and they got the Toys R Us account and he was working with another ad executive named Linda Thaler I guess she wrote the music and he wrote the words and um and he said that they did this back in 1982 and and he said um I'm real proud of it I thought it would be a one-time thing we had no idea that it would turn into what it did it was everywhere throughout the 80s and the 90s Absolutely. Yeah. It was really very effective. Oh, it was so good. I mean, it'll be in your head now. It's such an earworm. What's kind of amazing is you'll see one of these commercials from long, long ago, and you'll remember it. Oh, yeah. It has a permanent place. It's like hardwired into your brain. because it was everywhere. Remember, Toys R Us was all over TV all the time. Yeah. Toys R Us. God, when you were a kid, Toys R Us, you went to Kmart, but rich people went to Toys R Us. That's right. That is right. Yeah. That was the real deal. I hate that place. So did you make that place in the morning? God, I hated it. It took all my money. The only institution to take more money than Toys R Us was Clemson, university. I hate them both. I hate them both. And that was close. James Patterson. There's a little fun fact for you. It's the Bob and Sherry show. Thank you so much for listening to the Bob and Sherry podcast, the odd cast and talking Lamar.
