He's either gonna take the lap around the veranda.

Not the veranda. What do you call it? It's a thing.

A round thing and you sit in it?

That might have been the oldest man, like, old man mistake I've ever heard you make.

The veranda?

It's not a veranda.

It's a...

That's the best part.

I know.

You just had that word in your wheelhouse.

Yeah, that's the word I can think of.

That's not the one I forgot.

That's the one that's at the tip of my tongue.

He goes to the thing that's not a veranda.

What is it that's not a veranda?

Okay, a veranda.

Synonyms for veranda are porch, gallery,

palcony, lanai, sun porch, or stoop.

So what are you thinking?

It's not a veranda that you're thinking.

No, it's not a veranda.

You're thinking almost like,

not cul-de-sac, but...

No, no.

It's a structure.

It's an octagonal structure with a roof and benches inside.

No, like a...

Not a pergola.

Now who's old?

Pergola.

Well, there's lots of pergolas here, so...

You should spray for them.

Oh, my God.

No, I know...

You know exactly what I'm thinking of, right?

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

It's a...

There's a...

Oh, man.

Shoot.

There's a... Oh, man. Shoot. Now I have to get up the Google machine. Yeah, and I don't even know what to Google. Gazebo. Gazebo! Woo! God bless you! As it is phonetically spelled, gazebo. Gazebo! That's such a great word. Yeah, and that's where Linus goes, sometimes. Oh. And then smiles at me. Hey, Dad. Gazebo! And with that, we start the show. Okay. All right, so here... Let's start the show. Well, I've been trying to. Hold on. Right, gazebo. It's not a veranda. Mike O'Meara, Radio Entertainment. We should start doing the horn live. We should. You want to do it now? I'll replay the element if you want to. No, because there's a delay. It won't work. What if you... What if you allow for it? Okay. Okay, here we go. Ready? Dude. Cake and cookies. It comes after this. Rob and Katie. It's the Rob and Katie Show. Mike O'Meara, Radio Entertainment. Wow, there is a delay. How bad was it? What? The show's already over. I didn't even get to the start. It's Cake and Cookies. I'm Cake. I'm Cookie. And we're here for another episode. Katie, feeling well, ready to go back to a regular schedule, and we're loving life. Yes. So things are good. Hope you're having a good one. It's Memorial Day. Weekend. And you're applying lip gloss? Yeah. Just for me, because it's not like we're doing a video stream. Oh, no. I'm parched. Oh, on the front parched or the back parched? Or maybe on the lanai. The balcony. Balcony? The stoop? Gazebo! See, there you go. You love yelling that word. So, it's a big... Give it a shot. Give it a try. Go for it. Should I try? Yes. Okay, here we go. Veranda! Oh, I messed up. No. No. Gazebo. Gazebo. Gazebo. Gazebo. Gazunite. Gazebo. Gazebo. Now my father's calling the landline. Okay, I think you need to pick up. All right, hold on. Hello? Hello? I just want to warn you, the reason I couldn't grab your cell phone call before is that we're doing cake and cookies right now, and Katie insisted I put you on the air. I did not. You insisted. I'm on the air right now? Yes, you are. So, say hi to all the cake and cookie people. Well, hello, crumbs. How you doing? I'm on my way to the pet store because Tegan found two fledgling sparrows, and I need to go get some fledgling sparrow food to feed them. What a good project for your weekend. Yeah, it's exactly what I had planned. I know you love to be out and about buying bird food at 9.54 in the morning. Do you have to chew it first? And with birds sitting on a towel in my living room going, tweet, tweet, tweet. They're keeping their tweets down to 140 characters. Katie wants to know. That's a funny bird joke. I get it. Katie wants to know if you have to chew the food before you feed it to the sparrows. No, actually, what you do is you take cat food and soak it in water and then add a little bit of parrot vitamin juice and then feed them very slowly so they don't choke. How did you figure this out? I bet he went on the internet. Did you go on the internet for that? Oh, yeah. Well, I'm not going to say that you sound like a defeated man right now because I'm rooting for you. As a good friend of mine once said, birds of a feather flock together. This is so true. Let me go and I will call you in an hour or so and I'll get the full story. Okay, guys. And goodbye, crumbs. And they say goodbye, Grandpa Bob. Talk to you later. That's my dad. That was fun. Hot bird update. Now, my father is a lover of all things, the animal, vegetable and mineral. And I'm sure that if the grandkids had not been there, he still would have taken strides towards saving those fledgling sparrows. However, I agree. However, I'm not sure that the plan if he had been flying solo would have been going into town before 10 a.m. to soak bird food and buy parrot juice. And how much juice can you get out of one parrot anyway? I don't know. Well, parrots can get pretty big. I don't like them. They live too long. Creeps me out. I was just going to say they live like 30 years. 80 years. 80? 80. Especially the Norwegian blue. Beautiful plumage. You made that up, right? What? The Norwegian blue? Mm-hmm. That's from a Monty Python routine. The dead parrot routine. Oh, okay. He says, I'm not talking about the bloody plumage. The bird is stone dead. Because like every- My first jaw doctor had a parrot that would ride to work with him every day. Yes? So he could use the carpool lane? I don't know that it counts. It's a half a bird. Half a person. Unfortunately, he passed while I was going through like procedures. The man or the parrot? The parrot. Oh, thank God. And he was very, very sad. Yeah. The man. I guess, yeah. And waited about six months and got a new baby bird. But the baby bird was full of sass. Hello there, baby bird. That was a, there was a horror movie where, I think it was John Voight. He used that really weird accent. Hello, baby bird. I think. So did it, was it a talking bird? Yes. I don't like them either. But the original talking bird that he had was just very sweet and would like do little snuggle things. Yeah. And just very sweet. The baby bird that he got, though, different personality. Well, I mean, are birds more nature or nurture? I don't know. Because like a dog is all, I believe, almost entirely nurture. It's how you bring the dog up that's going to determine the personality. But maybe this was just a bad seed. Oh, my God. If that's true, what did we do with Presley? Depressly. Unimpressly. The movie Anaconda with John Voight, in which he battled a massive killer snake in a lake. And he would say, where are you, baby bird? I just, I had to get that out. Okay. But that's not the reason I called. I don't believe I've taken in that picture. You hadn't head down to the cinema? Mm-mm. Go down to the multiplex, buy yourself a nickel bag of popcorn and see John Voight say baby bird. It's a great way to spend an afternoon. I saw Solo, by the way. What? I saw Solo. Oh, okay. And no. My sister liked it. Why? Why? There's nothing in it to like. I haven't seen it. I don't know. It's too long. It's uneven. There are no good jokes. jokes. I had to look at Chewbacca. Jokes? Well, I mean, you know, like funny lines, something like that. And Chewbacca is, I didn't mind knowing the backstory of how Han and Chewbacca met, which was nice. But when he met Chewbacca, Chewbacca was all muddy and his fur was matted. And I'm thinking, can we please get this Wookiee a shampoo? Something. A style and set? Something. Anyway. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do. When a movie opens with essentially 30 minutes of chasing and fighting, should you nod off? No. It's like when the lion gets to the... It's the Land of Oz. The castle. That's the Land of Oz. Yeah. It's more than a castle. The castle is within the Land of Oz. Well, they needed to... Ho, ho, ho, ha, ha, ha, and a couple of la-di-da's. Certain air of savoir-faire in the wonderful Land of Oz. Ha! My God, you know the words. I know all the words. But I also have to give this caveat. Bert Lahr was a broken man. Very sad, the man who played the cowardly lion. Okay. A constant complainer, nervous tics, hated the business. Sad. Really. So think about that the next time you watch the movie, kids. I... Rob... Are we disjointed today? Why? You just keep throwing me off. I don't even know what to say. First, it was... What? The gazebo. And then you were talking about the doors and... Well, all right. Seeing it with your mom. And then now, I don't... I don't know. I don't understand. I don't understand. Man. I don't... Okay. What we need to do is reset. Our lead topic today, hooray for the Chubbicks. Yeah. Okay. Let's steer this boat correctly. We need a good boat dog. Um, why do you have three refrigerators? I have three refrigerators because one of them has been slowly dying. The one... Okay. So I'm assuming it's the one in the basement that has been slowly dying. Yeah. Now, that was your beverage. That was a Bev fridge. And you know what? That's okay as a rule. Did you just call it a Bev fridge? Bev fridge. Yeah. That was your old DJ name, wasn't it? Short for Beverly. You can call me Beverly. That's of course. So when we moved into the house, this is a long and tedious backstory. So if you need to go and like wax your car, now's the time to do it. But if you're going to stick around... I'll be back in about 30, 35 minutes. Use the power buffer, Bev. So what you do is this. Punch it out. When we moved into the house, there was a utility room in the basement. Okay. And in the utility room, there's like... It's still there. Okay. That's true. When we moved in the house is when we first realized that the ever-present utility room was there. Mm-hmm. And it remains omnipresent and omnibenevolent. This is a good utility room. So in there is the water heater. There was also like one of those sinks that's like a... Maybe a slop sink or a laundry sink. Like a big deep sink. A slop sink? Yeah. I don't know. It's not like we're slaughtering hogs down here, but I don't know what to call it. Is it a gazebo? It's probably a laundry sink. Okay. A laundry sink. Well, I'm equally as likely to slaughter hogs in my basement as I am to do laundry in my basement because the machines are up two floors. But anyway, this was taking up quite a bit of room because this slop sink where I slaughter all the pigs is like two by three feet, right? Right? Right. Don't tune out on me. Please help me out. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm not sorry. I'm really not sorry. I know. You're sorry not sorry. I wasn't even sorry not sorrying you. I just am not sorry. All right. Do you have regrets at all about it? I mean, is there any level of sadness? No. Okay. So now I know where I stand. No regrets. That's good. So helps me find my equal footing. So I said, you know what about this slop sink? It's taking up a lot of room. And this is where I want to put my shelves for my albums. Now, this is a very important fact. Back left corner? Yeah. Okay. I have about 12. I have about 36 feet of albums in storage that aren't
