Dudley and Bob with Matt — 93.7 KLBJ-FM, Austin — Wednesday, September 2, 2015
This Show
Part 1: Skip School
Dale discusses his grumpy mood and frustrating dining experience where a waiter couldn’t get his club soda order right. The show covers Carissa’s ongoing health anxiety about her breathing and heart rate, with Dale and Bob pushing back on her hypochondria. Main topics include a Round Rock pet store facing Facebook backlash for selling puppies in cages (though legally compliant), a woman in England who rehomes dogs once they grow past the puppy stage, and a new Texas law decriminalizing truancy.
Segments
- Show open and Matt’s commercial reads [00:00:00] — Matt celebrates getting commercial reads for the first time in six years. Dale mentions Daniel Gallo is on vacation without properly notifying anyone.
- Dale’s bad dining experience [00:02:18] — Dale recounts a frustrating meal where the waiter was exhausted from working multiple jobs and repeatedly brought vodka tonic instead of vodka and club soda, despite multiple attempts to correct the order.
- Carissa’s health anxiety [00:13:14] — Carissa checks her heart rate obsessively using a phone app, worried about breathing issues and her heart stopping. Dale and Bob explain her symptoms are likely psychosomatic and push her to quit smoking.
- Woman who rehomes dogs after puppy stage [00:23:21] — Discussion of UK writer Shona Sibery who admits she only keeps dogs during the cute puppy phase, then rehomes them. Bob suggests she’s essentially fostering and performing a service.
- Round Rock pet store controversy [00:29:32] — Dale addresses listener requests to discuss Partners Pet Center, which is legally selling puppies in cages but facing Facebook outrage. He argues the mob should address the law, not attack the compliant business owner.
- Texas truancy law changes [00:36:46] — New Texas law removes criminal penalties for student truancy, though schools can still take students to court. Dale questions whether this eliminates the threatening letters he received from Leander ISD when taking his son on a Disney cruise.
