Bob and Zip Show with Ed Kelly – Mar 24, 2021 Mar 24, 2021

Show notes

The only show that tackles the biggest question facing all humanity… What is civilization? On Friday we’ll read your responses to that question.

Ed Kelly is a world renowned voice actor who specializes in Video Game characters, and we talk about what these games teach our children.

Bob gets a Covid test- it’s probably nothing. And we have a fool proof plan to get anti-vaxxers in line.

Things once free, now cost.. and once cost, now free. What comes to mind?

Show notes

Andrew Rivers is on fire once again, and we celebrate one year since he joined the Podcast.

Does unemployment insurance make you lazy?

We’ve introduced a new rule on the show: Try not to sound like you learned everything from Memes. It’s harder than you think. If the Meme alarm goes off, we are required to go in depth about our feelings.

Zip wants to find a business opportunity that will allow him to be a sponsor on the Podcast (like Bob & Lisa’s Maple syrup, available at BobRivers.blog)

Zip and Ed force Bob to talk about Maple Syrup… available at BobRivers.blog.

We pay Tribute to Larry King and Bob’s Mom, who both told him God gave you two ears for a reason.

Zip still patiently waits for a vaccine, and Ed’s GF drives a Smart Car – which he claims would be very safe in a crash (Maybe with Matchbox Cars?).

Plus, Spike & The Impalers’ [seriously kick-ass] cover of *Eruption/You Really Got Me* (1:20:18)

Bob and Zip Show with Ed Kelly – Mar 12, 2021 Mar 12, 2021

Bob thinks the term “Cancel Culture” should be cancelled. (This commentary is brought to you by Bob and Lisa’s Maple Syrup.. Now accepting pre-orders at BobRivers.blog!)

Drummer Jeff Kathan got his second Covid shot and it brought on a fever of 102.5. He still hits his drums hard, and decides to do some shots with Andrew Rivers. Rimshots that is…

Gomer Pyle is good friends with Ed Kelly, and surprisingly tech savvy, LMFAO.

Andrew Rivers is touring all the Red States with no-mask mandates. That’s where the open Comedy Clubs are.

Bob and Zip Show with Ed Kelly – Mar 10, 2021 Mar 10, 2021

Show notes

Deep Fakes come to TV. The Apple space race series “For All Mankind” uses it to make Ronald Reagan and Johnny Carson real in an alternate universe.

Lisa gets vaccinated, Bob makes an appointment, and Zip seems unconcerned like he’s procrastinating getting an oil change for his car!

We have a special guest who is a solid IT professional. Chuck Opperman works at Malware Bytes, and talks about how dangerous these cyberattacks really are, plus some great perspective on his time with Microsoft and Bill Gates.

Spike is going to school, excelling in every subject except one. And Joe finally gets his first Covid shot.

We interview one of rock’s great saxophone players, Deric Dyer (Tina Turner, Joe Cocker), and play what may be the catchiest song of the year. It’s a musical collaboration called “Hope”, by Perfect Strangers. It will lift your spirits… and after a few spins, it will play nonstop.

Show notes

Heart founding member and Bassist Steve Fossen visits to talk about how he’s spending the pandemic, and Andrew Rivers has had a Covid scare!

Can we cancel the phrase “Cancel Culture” instead of Dr Seuss?

Beware the Ides of March… an expression we still use without knowing why.

Plus a beautiful recording of a Canadian Acapella Group singing along with the CPAC National Anthem.

God Bless everyone!

Show notes

You told us you wanted a longer show, that you enjoy Zip and Ed, and also want to hear more Spike and Joe. This one clocks in at just under 2 hours!

Ed’s doorman is hitting on his girlfriend, Zip has a right wing sister and they each think the other is brainwashed. This causes Spike and Ed to do dueling Dr Phil impressions.

Ed got his first shot today. It took hours. Bob went through hell signing Lisa up, and Joe is considering driving 100’s of miles for a vaccine.

Plus, there’s a new brand of pet food that cats and dogs go crazy over.

Show notes

Trying to decide on our nicknames, Narcoleptic Ed is easy- he overslept again, and joins Bob and Zip late.

Tin Foil Bob believes in only the real conspiracies, and does not like the term “Woke”.

Zip has always had a Porn-stache, he explains why.

We read letters from listeners, who pull no punches about what they like and don’t like.

Why can some people get away with chain smoking into their 80’s? Is it just winning the DNA Lottery?

And we’ll give you a taste of the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame nominee you’ve never heard of, who deserves the honor.

Andrew Rivers performing in Seattle all weekend, check his website andrewjrivers.com for tickets.

The Jeep Cherokee is the next Cancel Culture target.

Texas has seceded from the power grid.. and how far would you go to get vaccinated?

Bob and Zip Show with Ed Kelly – Feb 19, 2021 Feb 19, 2021

Show notes

A bit of a mystery tonight. Ed Kelly is AWOL. Bob worries when something like this happens, just like a parent whose kid is out past curfew. Could it be Crime? Drugs? (Ed is in Detroit, just sayin).

Speaking of kids, Andrew calls from the broom closet of Tacoma Comedy Club.

Bob and Zip talk about our own battles with substances and mixed feelings about Rush Limbaugh.

And Ted Cruz, who is just tap dancing on political landmines in real time.

We close the show with Spike and the Impalers classic rendition of Eruption/You Really Got Me.
