Bob’s Rock and Roll News segment:

Bob Fonseca’s Rock and Roll News began at timestamp 36:30. Bob opened by celebrating that all paperwork was finalized to keep Rock and Roll News on air for the rest of the year, joking that the announcer was signed first and there were rumors Sawyer might take over the segment.

The Doobie Brothers announced a new album called “Walk This Road” featuring 10 brand new songs sung by Michael McDonald, Pat Simmons, and original vocalist Tom Johnson. The band will be touring to support the release. Bob noted how the band has experienced a resurgence on TikTok, with younger audiences discovering their music. The hosts discussed possibly attending a Doobie Brothers concert when they come to town, with Bob expressing enthusiasm for the legendary band’s return.

Mark Mothersbaugh, leader of Devo, was highlighted for his remarkable success in television and film music composition. Bob revealed that Mothersbaugh earns $1 million per year just from the theme song for MTV’s “Ridiculousness” alone. This “mailbox money” factoid impressed the hosts, who discussed Mothersbaugh’s other work including themes for “Pee Wee’s Playhouse” and “Yo Gabba Gabba.” Bob expressed envy of this passive income stream that continues paying regardless of whether the show is still in production.

Two significant deaths were announced. Director David Lynch passed away at age 78, known for “Twin Peaks,” “Blue Velvet,” and other independent film classics. Bob noted a show connection through Krista Bell, who was Lynch’s muse and lived with him and his wife. Legendary baseball announcer Bob Uecker also died. Bob called him “a rock and roll baseball announcer” and someone he modeled his Rock and Roll News persona after, citing Uecker’s work on “Major League” and Miller Lite’s “Tastes Great, Less Filling” campaign.

The Fire Aid benefit concert was announced for January 30th to support LA wildfire victims. The lineup includes Stevie Nicks, Rod Stewart, Joni Mitchell, Stephen Stills, Sting, Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Earth Wind & Fire, Billie Eilish, Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer, Lady Gaga, Pink, and many others. The concert will take place at both the Intuit Dome and Kia Forum, with live streaming available on Apple Music, Apple TV, Paramount Plus, Prime Video, Netflix, and in AMC theaters across 70 US markets. Bob mentioned they would be talking to comedian Daniel Van Kirk later in the show about his volunteer efforts helping wildfire victims.

Additional news included Neil Young, now 79, heading to Glastonbury with his backup band the Chrome Hearts and releasing a new politically-themed song called “Big Change is Coming.” The Village People were discussed for their controversial decision to perform at the upcoming presidential inauguration, despite risking fan anger. Brit Floyd announced a US tour celebrating the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here” album, featuring Roger Waters’ son as a special guest and five double-header shows with Alan Parsons.

Rock and roll shoutout/salute:

• Bob Uecker (44:17) – “R.I.P. to a hero of mine”
• Harry Caray (46:34) – “R.I.P. Harry Caray”
• David Lynch (42:52) – “Our sympathies go out to all the friends and fans of David Lynch”

3 paragraph summary of this portion of the show (excluding Rock and Roll news):

The show opened with the hosts’ daily introductions, with Bob doing elaborate buildups for Chuy and Matt Bearden. Discussion quickly turned to television, with Bob enthusiastically recommending “Silo” on Apple TV+, revealing he stays up late on Thursday nights to watch new episodes when they drop based on UK release times. The conversation shifted to “Severance,” another sci-fi show where an AI in an elevator separates workers’ memories between their work and home lives. Bob showed off his vintage Tag Heuer watch from the ’90s that he bought with his first big radio paycheck, explaining he had given it to his father but took it back for safekeeping.

The Trump presidential portrait became a topic of discussion, with the hosts carefully navigating political sensitivities while commenting on the unusual lighting that made it look like a Halloween flashlight-under-the-chin effect. This led to banter about official presidential photos and speculation about what unconventional choices Trump might make. The conversation meandered through various topics including sci-fi shows about universal beauty standards, Instagram algorithms, and Matt’s carefully curated feed of “insane people” with dark humor.

The main segment was “Click Click Boom,” where Matt went through USA Today’s reader-ranked best fast food restaurants. This sparked extensive debate, with particular controversy over Del Taco taking the #1 spot, In-N-Out at #4, and Popeyes at #8. Chuy revealed he had eaten at Arby’s (#10) the previous night at 6:30 PM, ordering a double beef and cheddar with horsey sauce. The hosts debated regional availability, with discussions about the “CACC” (Cracker Ass Cracker Count) determining where certain restaurants locate. Bob defended KFC’s #2 ranking while Matt argued Popeyes was superior in every way. The segment included a humorous moment when Matt’s daughter ordered $50 of Taco Bell via delivery at 2 AM and justified it by throwing his own lessons about financial independence back at him.

Summary

This portion of the show featured several significant developments and wide-ranging discussions. The morning began with Bob’s Rock and Roll News segment, which unexpectedly focused on film announcements including Goonies 2 and a new Gremlins movie, both being written by Chris Columbus. Bob acknowledged crossing into film territory but justified it by explaining rock and roll and film go hand in hand.

A major storyline throughout this segment was the Hot Dog Friday miscommunication. Bob had volunteered to get hot dogs and wanted a basic stadium-style dog, but Chuy gave him “that Chuy look” and said he’d go to Costco instead. However, neither Bob nor Matt texted to confirm, resulting in no hot dogs being available. This led to Sawyer being dispatched to 7-Eleven mid-show to purchase hot dogs and buns, much to his chagrin as he was trying to celebrate his new radio positions. The hosts engaged in extended banter about 7-Eleven hot dogs versus other brands, with Matt delivering a memorable line about the only difference between Hebrew National and 7-Eleven being that “the rat’s butthole is Jewish.”

The show featured important personnel announcements for Sawyer Stull, who revealed he’s now permanent on ESPN Radio from 10-11am daily and will also be taking over the afternoon drive slot from 3-6pm on the FM station. Despite these career milestones, Sawyer was immediately put to work buying groceries at a gas station and later committed to watching Matt’s geriatric dog during the playoff games. The intern George also received attention, being gifted a Bush Light by Sawyer and revealing he and his peers prefer White Claw over traditional beer, which he demonstrated by not knowing that Miller Lite’s slogan is “Great taste, less filling,” instead answering “Blue Bunny.”

Matt’s Thick Headlines segment covered several Austin-area stories, including the upcoming Austin International Half Marathon that will close roads Sunday, an Arctic blast expected to bring temperatures at or below freezing from January 18-24, construction beginning on Kelly Slater’s Austin Surf Club in Del Valle, and Austin ranking 10th nationally for guns confiscated at TSA checkpoints with four loaded pistols found on the same day in January 2024. The segment also touched on Tesla moving workers from Cybertruck production to Model Y at the Austin factory due to slumping Cybertruck demand, leading to jokes about Bob’s Cybertruck purchase being a mistake and his son Kaden being their “resident Tesla reporter.”

The show concluded with a lengthy phone interview with comedian Daniel Van Kirk, who called in at exactly 8:50am as requested, demonstrating his professionalism. Van Kirk discussed the LA fires from a personal perspective, revealing his family home burned down in August. He provided important context about Los Angeles that many outside the area don’t understand: that it’s the size of Rhode Island, that LA County’s GDP would make it the fifth-largest state economy, and most importantly, that the majority of people affected by the fires are blue-collar workers, not just wealthy celebrities. He explained this using the analogy of movie credits—the first minute shows talent, but the next five minutes show all the union workers, day laborers, and blue-collar professionals who make up the backbone of the industry and the city. Van Kirk also discussed his partnership with clothing company Farity to provide clothing to fire victims, praising the company’s owner Alex for responding within five minutes to his email and immediately offering support without asking questions. The conversation addressed the politicization of the disaster, the reality of climate change regardless of what people want to call it, and the importance of Americans helping each other through increasingly frequent disasters.

Summary:

The final third of the Matt & Bob show opened with an extensive interview with comedian Daniel Van Kirk (DVK) about the Los Angeles fires. Van Kirk provided firsthand updates about the situation, explaining that the Sunset fires were now controlled and he had returned home safely. He discussed the incredible community response, particularly highlighting Faraday clothing store’s efforts to provide free clothing to fire victims. Van Kirk emphasized the long-term nature of the recovery, comparing it to his own family’s experience with prolonged trauma, and encouraged listeners to consider donating in the coming months when initial aid efforts wane. He recommended organizations like the Red Cross and SELAH, a homeless coalition helping both previously and newly unhoused people.

Breaking news interrupted the show when Sawyer reported that the Supreme Court had upheld the TikTok ban in the United States. This led to a discussion about social media platforms, with the hosts noting that TikTok users were migrating to Red Book, another Chinese platform. They observed the irony of Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk’s close relationship with the incoming administration, suggesting financial motivations behind the ban. The conversation also touched on young Americans discovering Chinese products and lifestyle through Red Book, and how “woke TikTokers” were being confronted with non-Western perspectives on the new platform.

The show’s most memorable moment came when a female caller contacted Chewy about his New Year’s resolution to attend an orgy. The caller, a long-time listener since 1996, offered to sponsor Chewy’s entrance to Colette’s, an adult entertainment venue near her home in the Wild Branch area. The extended conversation covered the club’s dress code requirements (men must be accompanied by women and dress appropriately), logistics, and potential expectations. When asked her name, she humorously identified herself as “Tits McGee” (what her daddy calls her), and explained her boyfriend was also a show fan. The hosts questioned whether she would simply be his “wing woman” or if more was expected, leading to increasingly comedic speculation about shoulder rubs, hidden cameras, and whether Chewy would head straight for the buffet.

Food-related segments included a discussion of National Pizza Week, where Matt explained that “cheese sweat” is the official term for pizza grease (actually a mixture of proteins). The FDA’s ban on red dye 3 was announced, affecting hundreds of products including Nesquik strawberry milk, Lucky Charms, Fruit Loops, Betty Crocker frosting, and various candies. The “Nuts to the Yard” segment featured a Brazilian woman who married a homemade doll and announced her fourth pregnancy with it, while another segment highlighted a woman with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle addiction who owned original movie props and made mayonnaise-covered pizzas. The show concluded with discussions about lunch plans at May Day restaurant, Dylan’s impressive financial success with cryptocurrency (particularly Bitcoin and Tesla stock), and Bob’s need to winterize his house for upcoming freezing temperatures.
