Who says N*SYNC isn't Rock and Roll? - #2988

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees have been announced. Once again, the boy bands we all love have been snubbed. It's really tearin' up my heart.

If there's nothing on TV, you can always ride your motorcycle - #2987

Tony Price is back for his 71st Gold Star Ride. He also brings smooth jazz wherever he goes, apparently. The nice thing about hearing him tell his story on our show is that you don't have to pay a monthly fee to do so. Speaking of which, have you checked your subscriptions lately?

Something very bad is on TV - #2986

Alex was not a fan of Something Very Bad is Going to Happen. Andy was a fan of Super Mario Galaxy. Is there anything we all agree on? Yes: repairing a toilet sucks.

What do ketamine, Parkinson's, and 80s radio have in common? Today's episode! - #2985

The Ketamine Queen has been sentenced. Hers was not a light sentence. Somehow this segued into Parkinson's and Michael J Fox, who's had the disease for over 35 years now. And speaking of things that lasted forever, Tom's 40th anniversary of the KQ morning show is later this month. What a perfect opportunity to reminisce.

Gelfand returns from his busy day of pizza and horses - #2984

Some people retire and that's it. They're done doing things. Some people retire and end up roped into more activities than ever before. Personally, I hope to be the former, but it's rarely up to you how your life turns out. But no matter who you are, there's always pizza.

Expensive gas and Mario Galaxy are back from the mid 2000s - #2983

We've got Passolt and, less excitingly, a mission to the moon - #2982

Humans haven't passed the Van Allen radiation belt in over 50 years. In a few days, that changes. But that's just boring old space travel. The real news is that Passolt can still do his Burnsie impression on command.

Is the fence around Mar-a-Lago made of gold? - #2981

Tom and Kathryn were at Mar-a-Lago last night. What's it like in there? Gaudy? Yes, gaudy. We also have Ben Simon, owner of Shed and Fence on. Our listeners had a surprising volume of fence-related questions for him. Maybe if he sells enough fences he can afford one of those $20,000,000 condos in West Palm Beach. But that's a lot of fences.

The life of Tom, live on the air - #2980

Bob's got a new project: interviewing Tom. Every Tuesday, he'll be asking questions and fielding some from the audience. The ultimate goal is to compile a book's worth of answers. How long that'll take, who knows? Probably less time than it'll take to finish Grey's Anatomy.

Keep rollin' rollin' rollin' - #2979

Tiger Woods rolled his car again. Was he under the influence, or is he just a really bad driver? We can't say for sure, but we can certainly infer. We can also pine for the good old days of terrible local television. It wasn't all terrible, but in West Palm Beach there was a period where the overall quality was...lacking.

Let's take our superyachts to Cuba - #2978

Our new dream job is to be the guy who has to eat all the food on a yacht before it goes bad, then buy more food. Then do it again. Forever. If that's not available, being an albino squirrel seems like a pretty good gig. You get Facebook pages made for you and everything.

Jay Gabler reps Duluth while Kristyn reps New York City - #2977

It's a show of contrasts, and also of cities. Tom likes West Palm Beach. Kristyn likes NYC. Jay likes Duluth. Only one of those places has a book called 100 Things to Do in Duluth Before You Die written about it. Can you guess which one? Topics: YouTube/Meta lawsuit Gen Z can't find jobs College life Duluth

Ellen Jacoby: Casting Director Extraordinaire (and backgammon player) - #2976

She's been on film sets across the country. She's been partially in the space shuttle. She's even been to the Pompano Beach dump. This is the life one leads as a casting director. And now that Sora is winding down and Disney isn't putting a billion dollars into replacing actors with AI, it would appear the position is safe. Everybody wins.
