Slafkin, Darren Swimmer. I really

1:39

liked this episode and I'm surprised that you don't

1:41

like it as much as you thought you did.

1:43

I actually respect your opinion more than I respect

1:45

my own in general. When

1:48

you say things are good and I check

2:00

television we found 20 very gullible money-grubbing

2:02

women and told them that they have

2:04

a chance to meet and marry a

2:06

guy who recently had inherited 50 million

2:09

dollars. Forget Joe millionaire. It's chick millionaire.

2:11

Yes you won't want to miss a

2:13

second as chick gets to know the

2:16

women and slowly begins the weeding out

2:18

process to determine which woman shares his

2:20

interests. Okay I'm going to

2:23

put on this diaper. I want you to

2:25

smack my behind and tell me no no

2:27

no and then suckle me until I drift

2:29

off to sleep. Oh

2:32

well I guess you don't have to do

2:34

it if you don't want to. Each week

2:36

chick will eliminate one of the finalists until

2:44

only one woman remains. Who will it be? Today

2:46

I'm going to lay flat on the couch and

2:48

each of you will have the opportunity to massage

2:51

my feet while I watch the Redskins game then

2:53

I'd like you to clean my house while wearing

2:55

nothing but a new pair of Nike. That's a

2:57

little weird. Really? Well I'm so sorry you feel

2:59

that way. Hey come here a

3:02

second let me get a closer look at your body.

3:04

Hmm. What are you looking for? I'm

3:06

looking for one of those little pop-up

3:09

timers because you are done. Don't miss

3:11

all of the excitement, all of the

3:13

tears. Don't miss chick millionaire. Only on

3:16

Bob and Tom television. To hell with

3:18

the women. It's that old British butler

3:20

that's making me hot. If

3:26

you missed something yesterday maybe you'll hear

3:28

it now. This is Bob and Tom.

3:33

And that brings us to Stupid

3:35

World Record. This is a stupid

3:37

world record. This is cool. A

3:41

Russian cosmonaut has set the

3:43

new record for the most time spent in space.

3:46

What's wrong with this story? It's

3:48

a Russian cosmonaut? It's a Russian. It doesn't

3:51

count in America. Please take

3:53

me home. I am so

3:55

sick of space. I hate

3:57

space. My

4:02

back is shredded. Russia's

4:05

space agency, Roscosmos.

4:10

Is that right? ROS, Cosmos. You

4:12

say you have the right or

4:14

you're dead. Roscosmos. I always uncover

4:17

of Roscosmopolitan. You were? Oleg

4:20

Kononenko has now spent more than 878

4:22

days and 12 hours in space. You

4:27

can't tell me. How many? You

4:29

have 78 days, 12 hours. You

4:31

can't tell me this has changed his

4:34

entire physiology. He's not going to

4:36

be able to walk for a year. How

4:39

many trips to the space station? A

4:42

59-year-old surpasses Russia's

4:45

state news. I fly into space to do what

4:48

I love, not to set records. I've

4:51

dreamt of and aspired to become a cosmonaut

4:53

since I was a child. He's

4:56

made five journeys to the international

4:58

space station.

5:00

My bones are pudding now. Yes.

5:03

You ever see my wife's picture? You'd go to

5:06

space too. Keep

5:08

me up here if she is still lip-shoot. How

5:10

real. How real Bowser. Oh, face look like Gorilla's

5:12

ass. Good Lord, feel that. We

5:16

have terrible toilet paper on our face. I'm not going to be able

5:18

to do that. I'm not going to be able to do that. I'm

5:20

not going to be able to do that. I'm not going to be

5:22

able to do that. I'm not going to be able to do that.

5:24

I'm not going to be able to do that. I'm not going to

5:26

be able to do that. It's a terrible toilet paper on our face.

5:28

You said to sand my new boat. My ass is redder

5:30

than Gorbachev's head. When

5:33

I say I need some space, I need to go to outer

5:36

space. Shall I mention my wife, ugly?

5:39

Take my wife, please. I

5:42

told her to go somewhere she's never been before. How

5:44

about the kitchen? My wife

5:46

said she wanted to be seen in

5:48

something long and flowing. I threw her

5:50

in river. That

5:55

actually leads to a story in the news.

5:57

A river story? I have 15 more minutes

5:59

of comedy. Police in Washington

6:01

states say a Cold

6:04

War era rocket was

6:06

discovered in the garage of a deceased

6:08

resident. Bellevue Police said an Air Force

6:10

museum in Dayton, Ohio. The

6:13

Air Force museum. Yeah, right back, by the way.

6:15

Right back. Reported an offer to

6:17

donate a military-grade rocket, which a neighbor said

6:19

had been purchased at an estate sale. Officers

6:23

responded to the home where Bomb Squad

6:25

members founded Douglas AIR2Gne.

6:29

Who's a state sale? Oliver Norton? No, no.

6:32

An unguided air-to-air rocket designed

6:34

to carry a one and a half, some

6:37

kind of nuclear warhead. Killaton,

6:39

I think. Killaton. Yeah.

6:42

Police said there was no warhead attached, thankfully.

6:44

Yeah, that's badass. And there was no rocket

6:46

fuel, essentially meaning the item was

6:48

an artifact with no explosive hazard.

6:51

They had it because the item was inert and the military

6:53

did not request it back. Police

6:55

left the item with the neighbor to be restored

6:57

for display in a museum. Wow. Why

7:00

would a guy want that to scratch? It's pretty badass. Hey,

7:02

you want to see my rocket? Yeah. Hey,

7:05

I took the nuclear warhead off. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

7:07

It's in the tiny room. It beats you want to

7:09

come see my painting. Man. I'd

7:12

do that. You

7:14

would go see a rocket, wouldn't you? I'd be

7:16

real nervous if you'd fall for that. I

7:19

would. I'd like to see a rocket,

7:21

sure. You want to go see my rocket? You want to come see

7:23

my rocket? I fell for worse. You want to come see

7:25

my rocket? Oh, I mean, me too. We also

7:27

have an interesting story in

7:30

the world of rescues. I find

7:32

this absolutely fascinating. Guests aboard a floating sauna and

7:34

a Norwegian fjord helped rescue two people whose car

7:36

plunged into

7:40

the water. The Norwegian VG newspaper.

7:42

Hey, Luke. How you doing?

7:45

I hope your day is going there. Reported

7:48

a driver accidentally drove off the road. He

7:51

is. Reported a

7:53

driver accidentally drove off a dock in

7:55

Oslo after hitting the accelerator pad

7:57

when they thought the vehicle was in park. The

8:00

car's two occupants escaped the sinking vehicle and were

8:02

on the roof of the car as a

8:04

sauna raft headed toward them. First of all,

8:07

would you get a sauna raft? That sounds

8:09

like a fun time. It kind of reminds me of those... Like

8:12

a party bar. Yeah, exactly. But it looks like

8:14

those bicycles that people have

8:16

along there. Yeah. They're in

8:19

this big floating sauna drifting down the

8:21

river. Skipper Nikolai Nordal

8:23

threw the sauna into full throttle and

8:25

managed to reach them just as the

8:27

car went under. He said with

8:29

good help from two of the guests who got

8:31

them up, warmed them up in the sauna, dressed

8:33

only in towels by the way. Oh yeah.

8:37

Time for the three way. Oh.

8:39

Wow. Alright. Yeah.

8:43

So they're fine. Did you see the picture? They're fine.

8:46

I did not. Oh yeah. It's

8:48

a truck pickup truck. It is? What kind?

8:51

It's a Fjord F-150. That's

8:54

one of my favorite words, Fjord. Fjord. Fun

8:56

to say, isn't it? Fjord. Fjord,

8:59

give us one back. Hey, Pat, it sounds like... I

9:03

once had a sauna. It's

9:05

a dry heat that isn't

9:07

seen. Naked,

9:10

sitting on a raft,

9:12

welcome aboard Norwegian Fjord.

9:16

And out of nowhere, a car flew

9:18

off of the street. Plunged

9:23

in the water, was it a Ford

9:25

in the Fjord so deep? I

9:31

threw on a towel, put

9:33

down my wine, jumped in

9:35

the brine. Saved a frozen

9:37

couple from drowning, stiff as

9:40

a board, Norwegian Fjord. Oh,

9:42

very nice. It

9:46

looks like fun. Yeah. Thrown down

9:48

the river in a sauna. I

9:50

wonder if you...are you supposed to like jump out of the sauna

9:52

into the river and then go back? Probably. You're

9:55

supposed to do a cold plunge or shower after a sauna?

9:57

That's exhilarating. Weren't we talking about last night? week

10:00

remember those for lack

10:03

of a better term boxes that had a

10:05

circle cut in the top of them you

10:07

10:09

10:11

the three Stuages movies. Yeah and then you

10:13

know it was always the same thing there'd

10:15

be a big fat guy in this thing

10:17

and then the Stuages would run by one

10:19

of them would take a broom handle stick

10:21

it in there the guy gets stuck there

10:24

you see steam coming out of his ears

10:26

10:28

13:21

hat to help keep the heat and make it

13:23

sweat faster. I wear hoodie in sometimes. It

13:25

looks ridiculous. Yeah but it's beneficial. Yeah. All

13:27

13:31

I don't have it. My car's in my gym bag.

13:33

Okay okay thank you very much. You

13:38

feel dismissed? Yeah I know.

13:41

Veterinarians in Maryland say they removed a

13:43

gear shift knob from a

13:45

snake's stomach. The

13:47

Second Chance Wildlife Center in Gaithersburg

13:50

said it was apparent that the rat snake

13:52

had ingested a foreign object when it was

13:54

brought in. Staff initially thought it might be

13:56

a golf ball. Which

13:58

snakes often mistakes. for fresh chicken eggs.

14:01

However, when the reptile underwent surgery to remove

14:03

the object, the vet discovered a

14:06

gear shift knob in its stomach. It was successfully

14:08

removed. What kind of car was it

14:10

from? Cobra. Hey!

14:12

It's on a cobra. The

14:16

snake is now recovering at the Wildlife Center. It will

14:18

be returned to the wild in the spring. Better

14:21

than Aaron called that a knob job, by the way. I'm

14:24

having a good deal. How

14:27

about this? This is a Disney

14:29

movie waiting to happen called Snakes.

14:31

There's a near-sighted snake who thinks

14:33

these are chicken eggs and they're

14:35

not. They're all golf balls. And

14:37

he tries and tries and tries to get a chicken

14:40

egg. And he does

14:42

that. And at the end, finally, he gets a

14:44

chicken egg. Alright, sir. Thank you for coming. We

14:46

have other pictures to hear. Josh,

14:48

thank you for your patience. And through

14:51

the love of a good female. It

14:53

sounds real cute. Josh, did this snake

14:55

eat the shifter knob from a... Now, Josh, your

14:58

snake was an automatic, right? That's

15:00

exactly right. I didn't

15:02

own a drive manual. How

15:04

did I know you were a snake owner before

15:06

you told us? I could just tell. Yeah,

15:09

I've got some dirt back in me, don't I?

15:11

It's a snake-owned-looking guy.

15:15

Police in India have cleared a

15:17

suspected Chinese spy pigeon

15:19

after it spent eight months in a

15:21

so-called bird lockup. Wait

15:24

a minute. A pigeon? An actual pigeon is a

15:26

spy for the Chinese. That's what they're saying.

15:28

According to the Press Trust of India,

15:30

the pigeon's ordeal began in May when

15:32

it was captured near a port in

15:34

Mumbai with two rings tied to its

15:37

legs carrying words that look like Chinese.

15:40

Police suspected it was involved in espionage

15:42

and took it in. Wow. The

15:44

pigeon was eventually found... They

15:47

use balloons and not pigeons. What

15:50

with the pigeon? Why would they have

15:53

to secret away something on

15:55

a pigeon? I don't know. Something like

15:57

that happens during World War II, maybe.

16:00

I mean, don't they use them right carrier

16:03

pigeons. Well sure carrier pigeons were yeah,

16:05

they carried things Did you know the

16:07

CIA this is absolutely true the CIA

16:09

spent 20 million dollars training

16:11

a cat to be a spy and They

16:14

did all these studies on cats and they finally picked

16:16

this cat out and they did a surgery Where

16:19

they put like this antenna in the spine of

16:21

the cat and a listening device in its

16:23

ear surgically so that it could go

16:25

into this room and listen in

16:27

and then take back the

16:30

recordings and So the day they were

16:32

going to test this cat this van pulls

16:34

up They have two guys sitting on a bench and the

16:36

cat supposed to go up listen to the guys and record

16:38

them and then go Back to the van. Well, they pull

16:40

up. They open the door of

16:42

the van cat runs out 20 million dollars

16:44

immediately hit by a car I Know

16:49

that's true story. Yes true story.

16:51

Really? Yes. Our CIA spent 20

16:53

million training a spy cat. No,

16:55

that's our tax dollars Why

16:58

would the cat walk up to the bench? They

17:00

was rained in through? Yeah, they trained it

17:03

to go up to certain areas and certain

17:05

people and stuff But they

17:07

didn't park on the right side of the street.

17:09

They could make a part exactly Think

17:12

to drop it off on the side This

17:16

pigeon was eventually found to be an

17:18

open water racing bird from Taiwan And

17:20

escaped and made its way to India

17:22

that has now since been released back

17:24

into the wild. I doubt

17:27

it Chick

17:31

to go with your idea. This is

the first Pixar film featuring waterboarding and

17:36

17:45

balls what A

17:49

Georgia family was driven out of their home by a

17:51

colony of bats recently Monica and

17:53

Isaiah Grant told the Savannah Morning News

17:55

that they spotted the first bat on

17:57

the evening of January 18 first

18:00

bat. There's a murder

18:03

in Savannah! And

18:06

like everyone, used a blank

18:09

to scoot the bat outside. A broom.

18:11

I'm going to say a fine broom

18:13

of some sort. How about a tennis

18:15

racket? Tennis racket. Where? Well,

18:17

we don't play tennis. It's hot. Damn. It's

18:20

a pickle ball. It's two. Within

18:23

a few days they encountered several more bats,

18:26

including one instance when a friend came running

18:28

out of the bathroom with their pants down

18:30

and scurrying. Man. As

18:32

the situation developed into a

18:34

full-fledged infestation. And her full

18:37

bush was on display. Right

18:39

there for everyone. Good lord, I

18:41

screamed. Put that away. Two

18:45

small children moved to a hotel and

18:47

began rabies treatment. Your pubic shrub

18:49

is visible. God. Then

18:52

I said, you bear it, we'll

18:54

all share it. A

18:57

witticism that did not go unnoticed.

19:00

Thank you. They have also

19:02

started a GoFundMe campaign to raise enough money

19:04

to cover the treatments as well as those

19:06

elbows. They didn't have rabies shots? Yes. That's

19:08

good. Oh, you asked them. A filthy woman. You'd

19:10

have to have rabies shots to be exposed to

19:13

that bush. Told

19:15

them that in the 43 years they've been

19:17

in business, they'd never seen that many bats

19:19

living in a space. Wow. Wonder

19:22

what kind of superpowers the kids are going

19:24

to get. Yeah. Oh, girl. It's my bat.

19:26

Yeah. That's awful. Wow. Yes.

19:29

I've had bats in a place before.

19:31

Oh, I've had bats in my house, sure. Not

19:33

bat, no. Getting a bat out of the garage.

19:35

You take a flashlight. No, I was the hummingbird.

19:38

The hummingbird. Remember? I ain't

19:40

got a bat. I got the most

19:42

terrifying, terrifying hummingbird. I got it. You

19:44

got to get him out of your house. That's

19:47

Binge with Melissa Joan Hart and

her friend Amanda Lee. We have

20:06

Lauren Bauber with us. Yay! The

20:09

help. So what is like your number one question

20:12

from fans? The primary question I still get asked

20:14

was, what is it real? In

20:17

2024, to me, it was a surprising question

20:19

to get because I feel like everybody has

20:21

been through the reality TV gauntlet

at this point. What Women
