Mike O'Meara, Radio Entertainment.

What happened?

You looked at me with a funny face.

Well, you were going to do the thing.

Well, because I always take a breath in deeply before I...

Breathe deep, the gathering gloom. I know.

I always take a deep breath, but I took my deep breath too early.

So at that point, I was holding my breath and I was like, this is how I'm going to die.

It was like an episode of the show's sea hunt.

All right. Do you want to start again?

Uh-huh.

Yeah, me too.

Boy, you laugh so loud.

I'm sorry. Turn your headphones down.

No, it's not so much that.

Is it?

No, no, I'm deaf.

Mike O'Meara, Radio Entertainment.

Hey there. This is Katie with a very hateful thought of the day.

I hate people who lose their minds the second they drive into a parking lot.

Whether you're the douche who takes up two spots a football field away from the closest parked car

or the dummy whose stalker drives behind people walking to their car with their arms full of groceries,

you are an idiot.

Just park your damn car like a normal person.

You may get dinged.

The word bump is in the word bumper.

And you may have to walk just a tiny bit further.

You should also keep in mind that traffic laws, like stop signs and right-of-way, still apply.

No matter what, please just stop being an asshat.

I hate parking lot insanity.

And you.

I hate you too.

Maybe you need a bigger font.

Well, because you struggled with some of the stuff.

I have perfect eyesight.

Do you?

Yes.

Not me.

I got zapped.

Remember I used to wear like those really big glasses?

I got zapped when we worked together at JFK.

Huge glasses, like Phil Silvers.

Well, no, thick. Thick.

They were thick.

Yeah, thick.

They were disgusting.

Shut up.

Hold on.

Let's do this and then we'll do the thing.

Ready?

Cake and cookies.

Rob and Katie.

It's the Rob and Katie show.

I did.

Yeah.

What are you doing?

I was going to say I like authoritative dude.

Yeah, that's a good one.

It's not laughing dude.

Yeah, that's a good one. It's not laughing dude. No. Do you remember? Do we, either of us, remember how to do this? It's been a long time since we've sat down at the Rob Radio World Broadcast Headquarters and done this. I know. We did it in, the last time we recorded was Glover Park. That's right. And before that was Christmas. Right. And I still haven't de-Christmased the jukebox. I know. Darlene is, mmm. I know. You know, I'm a mess. I'm a disaster. Okay. I truly am. Well, you said the house is a mess, but it's not. I mean, you do have your records everywhere. Is this for de-Christmasing? No. Or is this something, what's going on? This is the alphabetization of the, I came into a large number of 45 RPM records, but they were all out of order. Oh. I mean, really no organization. Like, Dottie West is next to the association, and here comes Reba McIntyre, next to Asia. Is it fancy? Is it, what fancy? Reba McIntyre's version of fancy. I might have it. Do you want it? If I find it, I'll save it for you. I don't want anything right now. But here's my thing. How are you? You're so totally satisfied. You're so loud. There's nothing that I have that I do not want to do. We're living in a bedroom. Two people with two dogs in a bedroom. Yeah. Yeah, you are. How's it going? It's fine. Good. So, but you've seen High Fidelity? Oh, yes. Okay. So, how are you organizing them? Autobiographical. Oh. I'm going to leave you to the, but you know, you really shouldn't step. Wow. I love them. I love the book and I love the movie. I would like to read the book. I've not read the book. Well, I don't know where I have it. I'm sure you have it somewhere packed away. I do. Unless it's being used to level the bed in your bedroom, it's not going to be there. No. They're alphabetized by artist and then within artist by release date. Okay. Yeah. I like, if you ever have the pleasure of picking up the Joel Whitburn Hot 100 book, I try to go by his sort of grid. Okay. But, you know, he changes. He's fluky. He's getting older, Joel is. And now he does like, uh, like Diana Ross's solo stuff is sometimes under the Supremes, even though it's a Diana Ross record, which says to me he's drinking or something. I don't know. He could just be getting Dottie in his old age. Dottie. Oh, I hate when record enthusiasts get Dottie. I know. There's nothing worse than a Dottie record enthusiast. That's my old soul coming out right there. Yes, it is. Let me start the show because you accused me of not starting it last time. You didn't. No. This is Cake and Cookies. The Rob and Katie Show. Episode number 40. 4-0. 4-0. Out of its douchebag 30s and well on to number 4-0. It's a weekly podcast to show by way of comparison that your life isn't that bad. Our thanks, as always, to Mike O'Meara, Oscar Santana, and everyone at More Broadcasting, including, uh, Matt Bloom. Uh. Uh. Man, we got the best one of those DJ-ers today. It was great. It proved that it's been around a long time. 1959. Check us out on Facebook at facebook.com slash robincatie. Two B's in Rob. The extra B stands for book. Twitter at robincatie because I'm always on Twitter. Oh, I'm rocking the Twitter. You're just tweeting up a storm. Yeah, like, I tweet direct tweets of photos of things and I say, hey, Senator John McCain, here's what I'm having for dinner. Right. And he direct tweets me back, right on. Right on. With a thumbs up symbol. So many followers. An emoji. Yeah, the smiley faces. Stuff like that. Okay. What? I'm just not, don't worry about it. Well, no. Does the emoji count like the old school that's like a colon, un-parenthesis as a smile? Does that count? If it makes a face out of it, then yes. First. I sometimes do that because I think. But not just the actual colon. Oh, like, is that when you go like way deep into your phone and you find like a picture of like a cop that you can add to stuff? Is that an emoji? Right, but that's not way deep. Let me show you. Well, no, no. There's no need. No, I have to show you. Okay. This is because I don't even have a fancy phone. You know this. Oh, I know. I know. So if I go to type something. Right. And I click right there. Right. There. And I hit this. Yeah, that thing. The globe thing. How is that deep? That's deep because it's not letters. Look, look. There's your cop. There's the cop. There's your cop right there. There he is. He's awesome. Who are you texting three policemen to? That would be Dan. Send it to him. He'll worry. He'll worry. I'm sending a send. He's going to think you're in jail. There he goes. Help. You can find us on iTunes. SOS. Dash, dash, dash, dot, dot, dot. SOS, comma, LOL. Not really in jail. You can find us on the iTunes. The best thing to do is to search more broadcasting. And there you will find us along with the Mike O'Mara show, the mothership. It's Mickey, the Sertlestein show. The Sertlestein show? Yeah, I have no time to say O'Mara cast. So now I've just put them together. Like, you know, like when they combine names. Bennifer? Yeah, exactly. Like Bennifer. But there's Sertlestein. What else was there? Bennifer? That's the only one. That's the only one? But there's always something. Brangelina. That's a great one. Yes. And we tried Sertlestein and that was good because the other way if we did it, it was Mermelta. Mermelta. And it sounded like a depression medicine. So we didn't. It really, yes. Sertlestein works. Sertlestein works. So all the shows are there. Find us. Click us. Give us a five-star rating. Five stars. And subscribe. Because when the show drops, you want to have it. Right. That will prevent you from clicking feverishly as people like to do. Just subscribe. Now here's the deal. We should have done this show a week ago, but Katie is sick. Was sick. I was sick. Are you sick? No. Maybe. I'm not 100%. You were theorizing that you had a nose full of candy corn. Well, which I do think. I hate candy corn. I do too. Not a fan. But I like candy. I bet candy corn has ruined a good amount of children's noses and ears. How many? What percentage of candy corn that's made in the modern United States? I guess we'd have to call the Brock's company to find out really. But what percentage ends up in orifices? Orify. I don't know. Young children's orify. Full of candy corn. I imagine it's a good amount, though. It is probably the candy that is best shaped for insertion of nose. And ears. And ears. That's right. Yeah. Like, you know it would be really bad to shove up your nose. I don't feel like anyone actually eats them. They just make, like, fake teeth out of them. That's a good gag. People do eat them. A lot of people say they go good with popcorn. That's got to be crap. It's got to be crap. No. I don't believe it. Because it's wax. It's wax. I think that, you know, the candy, spearmint leaves, they're the gumdrops that are shaped like spearmint leaves and they taste like spearmint. No. Yeah. They're too big to put up your nose. That's a safer candy. Also, if they're, like, gummies and do they have, like, a sugar coating? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, you don't want to do that. Also, do you really want to stick a spearmint up your nose? Woo. Oh, yeah. Well, you know what? That'll clear you out real fast. Catch the sensation. When I bite into a York's pepper. Now, you know, now there was a guy that we used to know. I still know him, as a matter of fact. But he used to bowl on a league with my folks. His name was John Madigan. And one of his gags was to put Mike and Ikes up his nose. Why? Because it looks like he had a really big booger. And it's funny. Okay. It is funny. And then. You know what? Anytime I think about bowling leagues, I think of two things. What's that? I used to be on a. Measles. Bowling league. You. Really? Uh-huh. From the time I was like 10 until the time I think I was like 14. Four years? Yeah. And I had a hot pink bowling ball. Yeah, I bet. I went looking for it at my mom's house last week. Any luck? No. The holes were full of candy corn. I know. Damn it. The things you do when you're a kid. No. And then also. What was the Mike O'Mara? We used to bowl with the Mike O'Mara show. Right. Or the Don and Mike show. It was the Don and Mike show. It goes back to that. What was on your shirt? What was your name? Head. That's right. And there was actually two shirts. Mike was Pax. For Paxil. Right. But I loved it because after we got us, we had to get a second shirt because we had to have shirts in New York too. So we'd have to travel them back and forth. Mm-hmm. Travel them back and forth. Didn't have to carry them back and forth. God forbid. On my second shirt, it was the head, which I think in a way was a promotion. Oh. So anyway, you're feeling better. Uh-huh. Even though you feel clogged. Yeah. I'm still stoofed. Stoofed? I'm still stoofed. I understand. All stoofed. But it's not like there's a lot of snot up in my head. Good. It just feels swollen. Expectoration. You know, you could just be like irritated from all the blowing. That's a good point. Right, Dan? I'm sorry. Way too soon. Thank you. But the thing is, if you're feeling better, are you... This is... I would get in trouble asking this question on the O'Mara show. When you expectorate, is it clear or is it green? Clear. Oh, so your infection is gone. Yeah, but it never was green. That sounds so sad. It's true though, but it never... Describe your valley. It never was green. It never was green. Oh, horrifying. But it's... So what was the cold then? As caught as my witness! I'll never eat candy corn again. So you've been... But you were laid out. You were sick. And I talked to you. I had the sorest throat ever. The most sore throat. Yeah, the sorest throat ever. I had a very sore, sore throat. I remember. So there was no recording to be done. No, and we wanted to. We really did try. And we're going to get back into a groove. But you've had an eventful couple of weeks. It's true. With illness. Mm-hmm. Travel. Good Lord. And, of course, real estate acquisition. Well, the first steps of real estate acquisition. Yeah, yeah. Which is,
