The Tom Barnard Show

It's no secret that talk shows are dying, especially now that Trump is out of office and they find themselves suddenly having to actually write material.  Those who've been watching for decades - which apparently is the vast majority of the audience - are probably saddened by this news.  The other 99% of us, not so much.  It's like smoking.  Sometimes change is good.  Only sometimes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What do you call the study of animal behavior?  No, seriously.  I have no idea.  Well whatever the word is, we're doing it today.  Okay, it's less of a "study" and more of a random spew of potentially incorrect animal facts.  But that's what you came here for, right?  That and the big announcement.  You'll just have to listen for that one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The apocalypse is over (in some places).  The cracked, dry dust that was once soil is giving way to flowers and grass.  Animals are emerging from their dens.  And most importantly, comedians are returning to the clubs.  Even in today's No Fun Allowed society, stand-ups are more than happy to perform.  For example, Kevin and Gayle are more than happy to perform at Bogart's TONIGHT in Apple Valley at 8 PM.

It goes without saying that moving sucks.  We're saying it anyway because while it goes without saying, it also bears repeating.  Somehow.  Regardless, one way to make moving slightly less awful is to have someone do it for you.  No, not your immediate family.  Would you trust them not to break stuff?  Put your trust in AAA Movers.  They used to move pianos, so they can move pretty much anything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Get out your bible, because it's time to learn some virtues.  Specifically humility.  There's a lot of self-worship going on these days, which leads to entitlement, narcissism, and just being an annoying jackass.  Don't be a jackass; be a badass.  A spiritual badass.  Step one is to become so humble you'd never consider yourself a badass.  It's a complicated process.

Brand loyalty has been the name of the game for the past several decades, if not longer.  And by "the game" I mean "the entire world".  Everything is a brand.  Your favorite celebrities are their own brands.  British royalty are moving to America to create a brand.  Even something like getting a vaccine is being branded and sold as a product to obsess over.  That's why we're so inconsistent with the name of our show.  We don't want to trick people into cultish brand loyalty.  No other reason.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fans of retrials rejoice, because every day another page gets added to the appeal document on the Chauvin case, and today is no different.  Almost makes you wonder if that was the idea to begin with.  But crazier things have happened.  For example, not knowing you're pregnant and giving birth on an airplane.  That's pretty crazy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You've got the MLB, the NFL, and the PGA all in one show.  You'd have the full set if only we had mentioned the NBA and the NHL.  We or anyone else on earth.  Sorry, but it's true.  We also brought up the philosophy of paying a hooker a lot for some reason.  We don't think they have a league, but we're not the experts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They say demography is destiny.  In that case, TV's destiny is to be old.  Not just live TV either.  Even streaming is largely represented by people over 65.  So why are they still focusing on those young kids in their 50s?  Because they are dumb.  That's why.  And speaking of dumb, have you heard about those clowns in congress?  What a bunch of clowns.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you invented something worth billions of dollars?  Lucky you.  Just make sure not to leave your children a lump sum.  It seems that being handed infinite money for zero effort tends to turn people into lunatics.  Weird, right?  And speaking of lunatics with infinite money, the politicians we complain about so frequently seem to be getting dumber.  Is it something in the water?  I mean the special water they drink out of their jewel-encrusted chalices?  Maybe chalice water is bad for the brain.  More research needs to be done.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
