Hold on.

You hate it, don't you?

Hate what?

My hair!

I looked at the picture.

I showed your picture around last night to all the old women.

Why?

That's weird.

They liked it.

You know that's odd, right?

I said, here's Katie.

They said, oh, that's nice.

My mom is, what, 60?

She'll be 68 in October.

So she's 67 and a half.

So they're kids.

Wait, I think she's the same age as my mom.

Who went in a fight?

Yours?

Yeah.

She worked in the public school system and in a regional jail for quite a while as a teacher.

I'm afraid she'd destroy my mother.

She scares me.

All right, let's start because I still have lots to do.

Okay.

And your hair does look great.

It does make you look young and hip.

Pleasant.

Excuse me?

Can the surgeon do something about that?

How dare you?

I know.

That was horrible, wasn't it?

I don't know.

All right.

Hold on.

Mike O'Mara, Radio Entertainment.

What is the, uh...

You just going to talk?

No, what model horn was used in that recording?

Oh, that one?

Yeah.

That's the Acme ZL250?

Oh.

Sure.

Yours is an Ajax, isn't it?

Yes, mine's an Ajax.

I thought so.

Hey, let this guy talk.

Acme ZL250?

That's what I said.

Didn't stutter, did I?

You may want to write it down because the answer may change if you ask me later.

That's what I'm...

I'm banking on that.

I'm pretty...

That's what I am actually writing.

Here's a man that, uh, never changes what he has to say.

Cake and cookies.

Rob and Katie.

It's cookie. I'm cookie. Yeah, I'm saying it's us, it's cake, and it's cookie, and we are here for you. Why, yes. You know what it is? It's a show. It's our springtime spectacular. Welcome to our spring fling on cake and cookies. A little early, maybe, but with global climate change, who knows? Who knows? The crocuses are poking their heads through the ground. I am just back from Virginia Beach, which is located in Virginia, near the ocean, and the... Near the beach? Yes. And you know what? The daffodils are standing proud. The daffy daffodil. The fescue is turning green! It's exciting. And this is Cake and Cookies, a semi-annual thing where we get together and, you know, do the thing, and you listen, and we talk, and we prove that your life... Boy, Rob, this is the straightest intro you've ever done. I'm getting to a... I'm driving to a point. And that we prove, through sound logic and intrinsic analogies, that your life in comparison isn't that bad. I'm Rob Spiewak, but you can call me Cake. And I'm Katie Von Herman, and you can call me Cookie. When is the cookie surgery? The cookie-ectomy? Wait, wait, wait, wait. What? You might need a button ready. Oh, really? Yeah. Okay, go ahead. It's Tuesday. Tuesday. Tuesday. Tuesday. Tuesday is a real good news day. Have a story after this song. Today is Tuesday. You know what that means. We're gonna have a special guest. Special guest. So get out the broom. Sweep the plates clean. And dust off the mat so the welcome can be seen. Roll out the carpet. Strike up the band. And let out with a hip hooray. Hip hooray. Wiggle your ears like good mouths get tears. We're gonna have our guest today. Because Tuesday is guest star day. Tuesday. Tuesday. Tuesday. Tuesday is guest star day. Before we get to the cookie-ectomy, I have to say that I'm just back from a rather lengthy road trip with my mother. And we listened to the entire Mickey Mouse Club album that that comes from in the car. Are you kidding me? And it really reinforced something that I hadn't thought about in a few months. And that is this. Jimmy Dodd is such a dick. But we knew this. We knew it. But it really reinforced it. I mean, there are songs where he's sliding full octaves on those elephants. And I just want to kill him. Wiggle your ears. Wiggle like good mouse get tears. And also clear favoritism. There's one song where there's clear favoritism with Doreen over another one. Darlene. Darlene is preferred to Doreen five to one in all musketeer surveys. Mouseketeer surveys. What about Annette? Protected by contract on her own level. But when you get down to the second tier, you have your Annette and your cubby. And I think Bobby sort of tests out. Kind of like when you don't have to take algebra. The top tier ones. But then you get down to your Sharons, your Darlene's. Then there's some really tough mouseketeer competition. And it got to a point where my mom and I were making fun of all aspects that we weren't even calling it the Mickey Mouse Club. We're just calling it Mouse Club. Mouse Club. I cannot. Okay. So I apparently, we share some sort of brainwave. Why? Because I knew you were going to ask me when it was. Right. Sometime during this show. Sure. And I was just hoping that you would have that song cued up. And the fact is what's scary, not, it's scary enough that I had it cued up and ready to go. But not three hours ago, I was listening to it in the car going, this damn stupid song. Dick Jimmy Dodd on Tuesday. I hate Jimmy Dodd. Mouseketeer's circus. Yeah. It's circus time. All this damn stuff. Anything can happen today. Bite my ass. I didn't actually say that to my, with my mother in the car, but I was thinking it. I have no earthly idea because the timing is always going to be a little bit off. Sure. With our platform here. So I hope my belling and honking. Not bad. Okay. Well, thank you. As a matter of fact, much more precise than Jimmy Dodd's sliding vocal notes. I was trying to stay ahead of the beat because I knew there'd be a delay, but you know, it's kind of hard to figure out how much of it. You did much better than Doreen or Sharon or any of those second tier Mouseketeers on Mouse Club. Was there a Betsy? There's always a Betsy. Oh, heavens. Well, yeah, but she went by, Betsy went by the name Todd. No. No. She was the first gender fluid Mouseketeer on Mouse Club. And there's nothing wrong with that. I never wanted to indicate that there was. But anyway. The reason that there was such a stark contrast between the upper echelon mousers. Yes. On Mouse Club. And everyone else you really can call the second tier. Right. And they come and go like the wind. Because it was low fidelity, black and white. Oh, they all looked alike. All the Mouseketeers were cut for the same Disney cloth. Yes. And it's not like, do you remember, you know, like 10 years ago when everything switched to HD? Yes. And it took like all the news anchors about two, three weeks to figure out that they hadn't changed their makeup. Yeah. Yeah. It looked like in when they took the that special chemical that the Joker put into the all the cosmetics where they were afraid to like bathe. Jack Nicholson Batman. Yeah. Jack Nicholson Batman. It was exactly like that. Horrifying. Every time I see that that that scene, I think HD. They did a great bit. They did a great bit on Letterman because Letterman went to HD after Leno did. And they were sort of building up to it. And they said, we want to show you the sort of improved fidelity you're going to get when we go to high definition broadcasting. Let's look at the standard definition clip. And they had Joan Rivers come out on stage. And then he said, now look at the same clip in HD. And they showed it. And they had a goat come out. May she rest in peace. You want to know who probably laughed the hardest about that joke? Who? Joan Rivers. Probably right. Probably right. That woman man. A woman man, whatever she was. I have a lot of respect for her work. Well, she's a very funny lady. Survivor. Well, not at the end. But leading up, she did quite well. Not currently. No. No, no. So, yeah, I did a road trip with my mother. So I'm a little sleepy, maybe a little cranky and a little punchy. But that's not why we're here today. You're having your cookie-ectomy. I am. And when is this happening? Do what? We're not going to play this song again. It happens on Tuesday, right? Tuesday. Right on. March 6th. And what exactly, for those who are just joining us, and I imagine there are so many people that are just popping around and clicking on the podcast eight minutes into them. They need a recap. Perhaps they've just gotten off an airplane. What exactly is the procedure that's going on? Can you thumbnail it for us? It's a temporal parietal fascia flap, skin and cartilage. What is this called? I can't read my handwriting. Look on the internet. Arthroplasty, I think is what I wrote. Okay. Yes. And can you dumb it down? It's a meniscectomy. Not dumb enough. Need it dumber. Okay. The meniscus is... In your jaw. Cartilage. Well, no. No. See, you didn't make it dumb enough. You have one at every... All of your joints that come together. So you have... Think of your jaw like your knee. Okay. And there's a piece of cartilage in there to keep the bones not hitting each other. From rubbing. Yeah. Yeah. Rubbing, bumping, whatever. Yeah. And... Bumping. Oh. Oh, dear. I didn't... Hold on. I didn't proper... There we go. That is so typical of an Ajax. I'm sorry. I know. I should have upgraded to the Acme. You should have come down to the conference center. We did a mini one this weekend. That's why I was in Virginia Beach. I was at the Virginia Beach Conference Center. Oh. For a meeting of horn execs. A horn show. Did you talk about bells or was it just very... It was horny. It's very specific. Oh, Jesus. Wow. I didn't even... But now that you've said that, I will say it was worth the drive. Okay. Very close. No bells, though. No, no. Not until the very end. Certainly no whistles. My God. So, anyway. Okay. So, I don't have a... I, six years ago, broke my jaw. Right. And it kind of messed up. You just wouldn't listen. Mm-hmm. Cook one steak wrong. That's right. So, you... It... I don't even know how to explain this. They put it back together. The bones... All the king's horses and all the king's men. But the joint was... The meniscus was pretty shredded. Right. So, we've been having... Kind of putting band-aids on it. You know, if you've listened to the show, you know, every few months, I have to have, like, a minor procedure. Right. Well, the last time I had the minor procedure, it turns out there was nothing left in there to repair. Right. So, are you going to get woozy on me? Just let me say to this. If you want to dumb it down to my level, the hardwood floors have been sanded down so many times in your jaw that there's no more wood left. Okay. So, the reason I shaved my head here... And people should know, it's not like a Rob Spiwack head shave. It's more like a early 80s, hey, F you to my parents, I'm going punk head shave, where you've just shaved the sides. And it looks great. It looks awesome. Just one side, I kept hair on the other side. See, even that is an F you to society, because you're not even on both sides. Oh, that would kind of be a mohawk. Well, no, not with really long... You have nice, long, floppy hair. Thank you? Yeah, I like it. I like it. So, the muscle... Right now, there's like a muscle that sort of runs almost parallel to like a... A normal person's cheekbone. Sure. The doctor will detach it from the outside of my skull. Mm-hmm. Wrap it under... Right. ...the joint and reattach it on the other side. So, that piece of muscle, along with a little bit of my ear tissue and cartilage from my ear... Right. ...will be put in there. And that is going to be my new... It'll serve as the meniscus. And will that last for how long? It should be it. This should be it. That's a repair for the rest of your life. And meanwhile, all of our listeners say... So, that's nice. I mean, I'm not going to lie. I'm terrified, but I'm excited. You shouldn't be terrified. I'm excited. You should be excited. Yeah. God, be done with it. For God's sake. Yeah. And I might even keep the haircut. I think I look younger. You do. I think you look fantastic. Because I've always said, if nothing else, you have beautiful, floppy hair. No. I like it. I like it. It's very nice. So, that happens on Tuesday. Can I tell you something just hila
