I beheld a vision next to the expressway. Was a 60-foot Jesus with his hands in the air. Look like he's carved out of butter, just like at the state fair.

3:04Big butter Jesus, sweet cringes Jesus, whole country fresh Jesus, unsalted Jesus, whole promise Jesus, imperial Jesus, can't believe it's not Jesus, whole spread the word. We're just waiting for the cast to actually show up for work. Here's more Bob and Tom extra. At a conference with my dogs yesterday. Yeah, what's up? Have a meeting? Yeah, I had a little meeting with the dogs. All right. Yeah. Well, I said, I know it's Wednesday, so it's hump day. But for my dogs, every day seems to be hump day. Oh, they like to hump day. There's some kind of a thing going on all of a sudden. I have two girls and it's very much a girl thing going on at the house.

4:04Really? They go at it. Oh, really? That's a dominant thing. Yeah, it is. Mine go at it. Yeah. Even though it's not a Wednesday. Mm-hmm. Okay, just checking. See, for me, it feels like a Wednesday. See, the little one used to get humped all the time, but now she's not the little one. She's the big one. Aha. And now the one that was humping the old one. Yeah, she doesn't like it. Yeah. You ever hump an old one? Older than me, yes. Oh, okay. That's wrong with an old one. You know, I have a Bob Hope gravy boat. A Bob Hope gravy boat. Wait a minute. Is it like a snow? Wait a minute. Stop the show. It's actually like a little picture. Please tell me how pictures have it on your phone. No, but I could bring it in for you. Oh, you can bring it in. Yeah, I do. A friend of mine went to their home and they had a big estate sale. And she bought me a little Bob Hope picture thing. Oh my. He owned like the whole block right close to the NDC studios. Yeah. Well, I'll be. So I have a piece of Bob Hope history.

5:04How did he? How did he? I used to do it as a creamer. Oh, I think I thought it was hilarious. Me too. I don't know. I didn't like Bob Hope. And have you ever, if you've never seen him dance, it's been crossby level. No kidding. It's insane. They all had mad skills. Yeah, Bob Hope was amazing. Now, um, I don't think I own. I've been crossby. Sorry, Gene Kelly. I don't think I own a gravy boat. Well, this is actually I spoke out of turn. It's more of a creamer. Well, don't get our hopes up. I'm sorry. Yeah. I got a gravy boat for Christmas from Jason. I think it does it. Isn't it sort of a. Wait a minute. A milestone in your life when you possess a gravy boat. Yes, because you need one. No, but I mean, he got you a gravy boat. He got me a pair of socks. You see what I'm saying? If you let us to pick her on size, if you have a gravy boat, you are settled down. You must be. Oh, yeah. They're not going to find some guy living under a bridge. Well, he had a sleeping bag. Oh, he had a dog on a leash and he had a gravy boat.

6:04You're absolutely right. I didn't own one until I hosted my first Thanksgiving. And that was well. And I had my kids on the list. And that is a problem. What is one of societies? They don't own gravy boats. Yeah, all the un gravy boated out there. Yeah. It's something a couple of administrations ago. I'm surprised we didn't provide gravy boats for everybody living under bridges. Not for big. Not that they use a measuring cup or something. Yeah, just put it in a bowl. Yeah. There's no gravy boat. Oh, you don't pour. You're a dipper. No. Get your spoon and go. Now in a previous incarnation of me, I would have said, don't you just keep it in one of those ketchup squirters, 24 a seven. But thank goodness you're not there. I'm not there. I'm not there anymore. Yeah. I'm not going to say that. Yeah. My gosh. Can you imagine if you had said it? Yeah. Old time. My feelings were angered me. And I know that you're going. Your goal was to get one high tap attached to the refrigerator. Did they make a nice high quality set of those

7:04instead of the plastic wrestler? Those don't seem very durable to me. A plastic ketchup and mustard squirters. Oh, yeah. I don't think they could be made of anything but plastic. Well, no, I mean, but you can make them so they're nice. A little higher quality silicone. You could use. Yes. Yes. Have you seen the honey dispenser thing? No. It's a little bear. It stops and ends with the little. No, it looks like a honeycomb. No. And it sits down into like a little tripod and you push your button and it comes out. Oh, I'm getting you all one. No, thank you. This is obscure and I apologize in advance. But can someone tell me if this gives nothing away? In the movie Marty Supreme, there's a very unusual scene involving a honeycomb. Yeah. I just want to know if that's based on any historical. I guess there are parts of that movie that are historical fact and there are some that have been made up. Okay. I guess that is a bizarre scene. It is bizarre. It's so weird. It tells me it's real. That's what I think.

8:04Like who would come up with that? Yeah. It's totally off topic, which is. Well, our goal today, actually. Hey, we have flags hanging in the building. What are them? What are those flags? They're Irish. Irish. Are they Irish? They're Irish. They're Irish. Ireland. What the hell is, why are we celebrating this? Hey, Christian, you had... Well, it's Lent. You'd bitch if they weren't... You would... You bitch if they're flags and you bitch if they're not flags. I can just... Why are we celebrating that? There are American flags on the bitch. Is that right? It's right. It's not about what wacky country we're celebrating. I don't know why. I don't know why it's being forced on my... How many, uh... Don't go in the green room. How many countries can you own? Ethiopian coffee day in there. Oh, somebody cooks something in case in a pig bladder or something. Oh. Anyway, how many countries you think you can identify just by their flag? Oh. I'm gonna say 10, man. Oh, that's way high for me. Oh, really? Oh, there's no way. I bet you'd be better than you think. You could get France, you could get England. Well, but England has two. You could get Italy. England has the Union Jack and then the weird white with the Red Cross or something.

9:06It's just... It's wild out there. Hmm. Probably get Mexico. No. No. No, I thought these were Mexicans likes. I don't know. No thought I'd think about it. I think I'm gonna get four. Yeah, right? I know, right? I thought way short. Yeah. What a way to make... Does Japan still do the single sun thing? Yeah, that's... You'd get that one. Yeah, you'd get China, you'd get... And you know that just because... Well, I know that because of a joke. I am so excited. We had a new story this morning from the Guinness World Records people. An ER doctor from Ohio has broken the world record for holding the most matchsticks in his nose. Yeah. And we have Scott. He is the physician in question on the phone. He's an ER doc. Scott, how do you pronounce your last name? It's Conkel. Conkel. That's what I thought. A doctor, Scott, Conkel. Hey, Scott, thanks for allowing us to speak with you. According to this year, a 45-year-old physician from Guinness. And you shoved a bunch of matches in your nose.

10:07What's the backstory on this? You know, the backstory is... I wanted to get the Guinness World Records for something for a while. But it's surprisingly difficult to get the Guinness World Records if you're not exceptionally good at anything. So... To find something that required no skill whatsoever, as well as no special equipment, and didn't require a ton of money to do it. So after searching for a while in nurse at work actually helped me... I found it and sent me an email and I said, I think I can... I think I can beat the Swedish record and bring the record to America where a big dumb record is belong. USA. So, doctor, when you did this, do you put the ratches around the periphery? Or do you... What was your technique, if you will? So Guinness specifies that you have to stick them in one by one. When I did my training run initially, I just watted them all up and tried to stick in as many as I could at once.

11:07But the official guidelines for the records say you have to stick them in one by one. So you kind of have to put one in and pick an Austral, put one in at a time, hold it there with your thumb, and then once you get to about 25 or 30, they'll stay there by themselves. You can start filling in gaps. But you just have to kind of finagle it a little bit and do the best you can. Do you have exceptionally large nostrils to begin with? I do not. And I don't think there are any bigger afterwards. I thought about, you know, at work, we have special balloons that we use for people with bad nosebleeds, where you can't leave this balloon up their nose, and it tampons out off the bleeding. And I thought for training purposes, I may have to try using a couple of those balloons to stretch my nostrils out. Which I was waiting for the moment I was sitting on my couch, and my family came over and saw me stretching my nostrils with nasal balloons. But I didn't have to go that far because I did a training run.

12:10And in my training run, I got 88, which beat the current record over the previous record. I should say of 81. So I knew I could do it without stretching my nostrils any further than they were already. How was the pain? Was there pain involved? No, it didn't hurt at all. I didn't have any obvious bleeding afterwards, but I did have the matches definitely had some blood tinge to them when they came out. Dr. Cockle is there a required type of match? Obviously there wouldn't match sticks, right? Yes. They said they just had to be commercially available. So I just had to go to the store, as long as I could buy them in the store, they were okay. And they couldn't be the paper ones. They had to be the wooden match. I grew up in the Cleveland area, and we used to get matches called Ohio Blue Tips. Do they still make those? Those were the wooden stick matches with the head that came out. The red, white, and blue box.

13:10And the chemical on the tip so you could just... Yeah, I think they still do. I'm guessing they might. Honestly, I also grew up in the Cleveland area. So I don't remember those, but you know, if you send me some, I'm going to give them a shot. I'm going to get up my nose. Don't feel bad for my remembering. There's a 75-year difference between those. Dr. Cockle, I have to ask you this because you are an ER doc. Oh, boy. I know you get... You bet you get to ask this every day. I have been told by my ER doc, buddy, that the show, The Pit, is the most accurate portrayal of the emergency room in the history of television and cinema. Do you agree? I stick to my guns that scrubs is the most accurate. Really? The interactions on that show, I think, are dead on an absolutely hilarious. So I stick to scrubs over the pit. Have you watched the pit? I've seen a couple episodes of it. Oh, because in the episode... In the one of the episodes,

14:11a kid has something stuck in his nose and they stick this thing up there and they blow it up and pull out whatever it was. And they even give it a name. It's like, you know, the Ruben extractor or something. Yes, probably the Catholic extractor. I have not seen that one. I did earlier in the year have a kid with a popcorn kernel up his nose and the family was a lot of fun. And after we got the kernel out, the nurse that was working with me and there said, you got to tell them about your world record. And I thought, all right, I'm going to tell them. And I told this family that at that point, I had applied for the world record for most matches in the nose. And they were impressed by it. So this kid did find it hilarious that he was there for a popcorn kernel in his nose. And I was there as a potential Guinness world record holder for most men. Don't you just stick the kids head in the microwave for 20 seconds? That way it pops and it's easier to pull out. All right. That's exactly what one of his family members said to do.

15:15Once again, we're speaking. I bet that was Uncle Nick. I bet it was. We're speaking with Dr. Scott Conkel. We couldn't get it out. Sorry, we're speaking with Dr. Scott Conkel. He has the world record for the most matches in his nose. He is in fact a physician in the ER doctor. How long do you have to leave them in when you had all whatever it was, 91 matches in your nose? You have to leave them in there for a specific period of time? 10 seconds. Okay. During that 10 seconds, does anybody say you want a light? No. No. And I didn't. The key was not to sneeze. That's what I was going to ask. Yeah. I did my practice run and I started sneezing at 88. So that's why I stopped there and I was worried. I mean, you know, it's a fun record up until you end up in the burn unit. So I intentionally stopped at that point. I did some research during this call. You don't want to use the Ohio blue tips because they're extra thick, apparently. Yeah. They do still make them. Yes, they do. Okay. I have a stand. I just have a general question about health care.

16:16Isn't it true that hospitals charge patients differently based on how attractive they are? Like, if you find a woman really hot, you'll charge her less than an ugly guy. I can't explain why you're getting charged more whenever you go to the hot. Very well done. A friend of mine, an ER doc, years and years ago, sent me an X-ray. And this was pre-photo shop of a light bulb in the keyster of some poor fellow. Do you have, you had occasion to encounter any unusual objects in the backside in your career? Oh, yeah. All of my co-workers find it absolutely hilarious that I did this record because my goal, you know, there's, there's heart centers, there's stroke centers, there's trauma centers. But there is nowhere in America where there is a foreign body center of excellence. And my goal is, I want my hospital system to be the first

17:19foreign body center of excellence in all of the world. But yeah, but yes, I tell people the human body is limited only by one imagination. Tommy, thank you've met your new best friend. Yeah, I tell you what, if I win the lottery, if I win the lottery, Dr. Conkel, I'm going to donate the money as long as they name it after me. And so long as the entrance is in the back. Yes. Well, Dr. Conkel, you're a great sport and obviously you help people every day and I'm sure they all appreciate it and we appreciate you're taking the time out of your data call. Well, again, we don't know if he's a particularly good doctor. This is where we segue into the slander portion of our show, Dr. Well, thanks very much. All right, thank you guys. Take care. Oh, yeah, we forgot you forgot to do your patch atoms joke. Oh, I didn't forget. You see, you want to do it for our guest? Well, I said, the guy is a doctor or any put matches up his nose to win a world record and I said he should be called match atoms.

18:20And these guys gave me nothing for that much the way you just did. I mean, I got about as much therapy. I hate the movie patch atoms by the way. Oh, yes. Who doesn't? I don't know what patoms is. That's it for another Bob and Tom show extra catches on iTunes, Google Play and Stitcher for Bob and Tom extra. This is Christopher. Take care, everybody.
