The Tom Barnard Show

The questionable candle is the gift that keeps on giving this holiday season. What do you mean "it's still October"? There are Christmas decorations in every store. I think you've had too much ranch dressing. We'll put a pin in it and circle back once the Easter stuff is on shelves, which should be sometime in early November. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Columbus Day, which has recently become a lot more controversial than it used to be. But let's be fair - the guy sailed the ocean blue like eight times before they knew what vitamin deficiency was. It shouldn't be a surprise that he was a complete lunatic by the end. That's why we're focusing on the positive, like how cool 15th century boats are. I bet you wish you had one. Not sure where you'd park something like that though. Learn more about your ad choices.

Frosting. It's good, right? Just a little bit, of course. Imagine eating a spoonful of just frosting. Now you feel sick. Or how about money?

Tim and Tony remain for a more informal discussion of the world and the people who live in it, none of whom are doing voice acting work. Not a lot of them are doing standup comedy either.

Is there a job you wouldn't do for double the pay? If you said "no", you've either got an iron constitution or you haven't thought about it hard enough.

Apparently October 7th was a big deal. Something about all this hatred of one another. We were too busy practicing our endzone celebrations to notice. But wouldn't you know it, now you're not even allowed to do those anymore. It might have something to do with the Middle East apparently buying all our athletes. I guess finger guns don't translate well across cultural lines. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Remember when you could walk around downtown in Minneapolis? Me either. But apparently in the days of yore, that was a thing people did.
