It's a DAMNED CRIME that they can't play practically 90% of their recorded bits and commerical parodies because of the STUPIDITY of the FCC, ain't it?

Big fan here. I listen every morning, in the car and at work. Kevin Pollack is a phenomenon, ain't he? His take on Peter Falk is unbelievable! Tim Wilson and Drew Hastings, along with so many more of their guests, make Bob and Tom MUST LISTENING. They're just one more reason why I love my home-state; Indiana. I get so homesick at times, living out here on the East Coast aka "Hell", and Bob and Tom bring a nice, fun chunk of home to my ears everyday.

Just relax people... jesus! It's not that hard.

Yep, good thing they got booted from the air. It was dreadfully boring.

Wicked, Wicked. Jungle is Massiv!

Our radio station, 93.5, kicked off a really good team, called Coffee and the Jammer, to put Bob and Tom on.

I'm expressing my own opinion here and I speak for no one else in the greater Harrisburg area. I don't like them because I don't find them that funny. They're not really all that "shocking" and when they laugh, which is what I find most annoying, it sounds like someone is pushing a button to a laugh track... and they laugh all the time. There's nothing that funny but they're laughing... I don't get it! Like I said this is my opinion....

And they kicked a really good morning comedy team to air these guys... that also bothers me.

But oh well... I just turn the station. If you don't like it... turn the channel!

Just relax people... jesus! It's not that hard.

"Johnny Damon, looks like Jesus, acts like Judas, throws like Mary."

Agreed, they'll laugh at anything. Super annoying.

Bob and Tom aren't for everybody, but I sure am glad they're around. I've come to love them, and they're a part of my day everyday. As someone above mentioned, the Donnie Baker character they talk with is a SCREAM , and I always eagerly anticipate the next time Kevin Pollack drops in. That guy is is devastatingly funny, especially when he does his Christopher Walken or Peter Falk bits.

These people (Bob, Tom, Chick, and Christie) laugh a lot on-air because, well, they're having a good time, they're genuinely funny, and also because laughter is infectious. Think what you like, I LOVE 'em.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned "Beer Run", or "It's a Great Day For Me To Kick Somebody's Ass".

i can't stand hearing them laugh at their own jokes and stupid skits. they're about as funny as "Click and Clack" and their laugh is just as 'wonderful' to listen to. hence this thread:

i should specify that the "Bloater Brothers" skit on SNL was hilarious because they showed you just how stupid people look when they spend all their time laughing at their own jokes. when people actually do this in real life, it's just sad. it's even worse when they get paid to do it daily and it's not just a comedy act.

You probably did not think that Napoleon Dynamite was funny either as them laughing at their own jokes is part of what makes them so funny.

They were on a radio station here locally and about two months ago they were pulled off as the station they were on was a more christian oriented station, which I could not figure out why they would purchase their show in the first place?

I love Mr. Obvious, and I can't remember the hick guy that comes on all the time, and remember hearing the first time I heard the song keepin your poop in a jar by Hayseed Dixie. I had to pull over as I was laughing so hard I almost crashed.

Note to Obin: I don't know if you go to the Indianapolis 500. I attended every one from '72 to '95, and it became a central part of my life. On Memorial Day Sunday Morning (VWLarry's most holy day of the year ), the Bob and Tom Show broadcasts (their home station only) their Indianapolis 500 special program (they are located in Indianapolis). It's an integral part of the Indy Experience, just like waking up in the dirt smelling like ass and drinking a six-pack of beer before 8AM and buying tickets from scalpers at 16th and Georgetown Road at the crack of dawn . Bob and Tom are devoted racing enthusiasts. 'Just thought you'd like to know that.

by "their own jokes" i mean their jokes and skits that they make together. it's like one guy has the "applause/laugh/make commotion" light tattooed to his head and it glows whenever he's talking.

they would be 1000x funnier if they could just toss out the humour deadpan and decide that the audience was smart enough to laugh at the jokes and skits they think are funny. i don't need a running laugh track to remind me of what someone else in a studio thinks is funny, thank you.
