The Tom Barnard Show

Water puts out fire.  Rain is water.  So as you might imagine, firefighters in the rainiest city in the country often don't have a lot to do.  I mean, they do, but this is TV so we're making some concessions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can a cat be a spy?  Can a bat be a bomb?  Can a human be a chimpanzee?  The answer to all these questions is "kind of, possibly".  You'll see.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The PGA Championship is over and Brooks Koepka is the new champ, or as the average person calls it, the new Tiger Woods.  Will he become the new face of golf?  Maybe if he changes his name to be spelled phonetically.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wrigley.  First a man, then a gum, then a field.  Now it's a book by Kevin Cook, whose name also is many things.  It's a profession, a hobby, and even a captain.  Perhaps there's some relation.

Ten thousand years will give you such a kink in the neck.  27 years will give you a remake.  200 packets of cocaine will give you an early death no matter how you ingest them.  You'd think that last one would be pretty obvious.  Evidently, it is not.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We tried our best to tie Myq's presence in with another coincidence, but unfortunately he's a week early for Jerusalem Day and a day late for Lag BaOmer.  Isn't that always the way?  Stay tuned to see what we have in store for next week's Ascension of Jesus Day, whatever that is.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Ramadan, which is completely unrelated to Ali being in studio.  It's also not really a coincidence because we barely talk about it.  And get this: he's not even a sultan.  He's a viscount.  Nothing is as it seems.

We're a show of many faiths.  They're all branches of Christianity, but to be fair there are more of those than there are people.  We're not, however, Navy SEALs.  To say we're all unqualified would be a major understatement.

We talk about how bad Minneapolis has gotten a lot, but it's actually been pretty bad for quite a while.  It comes and goes.  The upside is that it makes for some great stories for the survivors to tell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's nothing Tom likes more than a college dropout.  It's just one of many positive attributes of John's.  He was also exiled from Canada, which may or may not be a good thing depending on who you ask.

They say prohibition doesn't work.  That's why Minneapolis has recently decided that making crime illegal is a waste of time.  Or maybe it's because they're lazy and/or in denial.  Either way we're sure that things will turn out fine.  I mean, there's only so much crime a city can fit in a day, right?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scott is American and he's also unearthed.  That's not why his show is named American Unearthed though.  He's unearthing America, you see.  Specifically on May 28th at 9PM CST.  And speaking of the past, remember Hitler?  Stan's mother certainly does, and he wrote a book about it.

Michele Tafoya won an Emmy, but she doesn't believe what she's supposed to believe so we're not allowed to talk about it.  Instead we talk about 9/11 with Scott Wolter.  It's a much less controversial topic somehow.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
