Brian Marshall & The ROCK 108 Morning Show - "Tom Garland's Top 5 for January 7th"

It's Lincoln Park their latest heavy as the crown with rock 108 friend of the show Tom Garland joining us for the first time in 2025 morning first time of the year first time of the year Hey, what's the what's the weirdest thing or the Dumbest thing that's ever happened to you when you've been interviewed on podcast because I know that you go on podcast to promote what you do

Unfortunately, I do.

Yeah.

They're usually like, I love being on the radio because you have this shows fun and you have such a big reach and whatnot.

You go on these podcasts and they're like, well, if you'd come over to my mom, my mom will be at work for between the hours of or we can webcat.

And you're like, there's nobody watching.

I did one in Vegas.

It was really cool.

It's at the Pepper Mill, which is, you know, historic.

And they literally do it in the Elvis Presley booth at the Pepper Mill, which is Elvis used to sneak in the back from the Riviera and sit in.

a certain booth supposedly, and they do it in that booth, and it's recorded live from the Pepper Mill, and the host is named Nenon.

And Nenon is this, I think she's British, but she, anyways, I went on her show, and she has all the Vegas entertainers on.

And so she's like, so who are you?

What do you do?

And at first I thought she was being like meta, and I was like, I don't really know who I am.

And then all of a sudden I realized, I was like,

Oh, she really doesn't know.

They just give her the gas and she doesn't read who's who.

And then so I missed the opportunity.

I could have been anything, you know.

Yeah.

What I wanted to do is go on.

I should have said I was an animal expert and just brought a bunch of cats.

Like 15 cats and be like, this is a cat.

This is another cat.

Well, this is a feline, but it's also a cat.

I'm an expert, you know.

My

name is Tom Garland, but I'm related to Steve Irwin by birth.

Exactly.

Something like that.

I don't know.

I thought that would have been fun.

How about this?

A Texas rapper named Tullo.

He's in the news after he accidentally fired his gun in the middle of a podcast interview.

Take a listen to this.

Oh So you've been on podcasts.

Have you ever accidentally shut off your gun?

No, I've wanted to do a couple

times like I There is a couple podcasts I've been on where I wish I could have bought a bullet and rented a gun and then just ended it They just been like that's funny though that they when they react they were he at first he was like we good And then he just like slips right into the like into the plug

Like he's like, man, we ought

we out here.

You

can

see the flash through his pocket as he's reaching for the gun.

What was he doing with it?

Just getting it out just to brandish

it.

He was just

putting his hand in his pocket.

I guess that's

where the

gun was.

You know, when you go to a podcast interview, sometimes you need to be strapped.

So yeah.

I had one that I did in Las Vegas, a funny comedian, Tab Lloyd, and I went to Tab's podcast and I got in a car accident on the way there.

I re-rendered some guy because I was paying attention.

And so then I show up to the podcast and it was kind of like, it's kind of a heated podcast.

It's funny, but it's like very like back and forth real quick.

And all I was, she was like, what is your mind on Tom?

Like, are you paying attention?

And I was like,

I just wrecked my car 15 minutes ago.

At least I didn't shoot anybody.

I just popped him with the back of my

car.

It's

amazing

that you did bring your samurai sword though.

you Brian morning I appreciate it good morning so I saw recently that you had posted that you are now in a another movie

another movie yet another indie movie it's great it's called Rudy's

Uh, it's out on Amazon.

It's on Fossum.

Fossum is like this weird app that's kind of like to be, but anyways, you can get it on, on your smart TV for free.

Or, uh, if you can't figure that out, you can go on Amazon and on prime and you can rent or buy it, but it's called Rudy's.

We filmed the whole thing in Iowa.

Uh, it's got WWE superstar, uh, Austin Aries in it.

It's got Sam Lasko, uh, the, the dirty caveman from trailer park boys in it.

And, uh, and then I'm in it too.

So it's

great.

I saw that you had your hat on backwards.

You had your glasses on in a particular scene.

Yeah, I play a it's a movie about a restaurant.

Obviously it's about Rudy's tacos and I play

One of the bus boys that just hangs out at the dumpster all day

It's

kind of like our version of waiting if you've ever seen that movie.

So Yeah, yeah, it's it's fun.

I I never go inside the the restaurant I just kick it at the dumpster all day and as you should speak knowledge I wrap a little bit.

That's fantastic.

Yeah, that's fun

So you said it's available where one more time Amazon and Fossum and it's called Rudy's.

So this is the first time in 2025 that we've seen each other

What's going on?

I mean, what you thinking?

You got things

going on?

What's going on?

You had me back.

I appreciate

that.

You were like, well, it's the end of the year.

I was like, is it the end of the top five?

No, I'm back.

So that's great.

I appreciate you having me.

Did you watch Rockin' New Year's Eve?

Yes.

Or you were

a Rockin' New Year's Eve guy?

I like that they have the planet fitness stuff on everything.

Because the only people I ever know that do planet fitness is comedians living in their cars that are like, you really can shower there, right?

And so I'm like, I don't know.

But I get it, they do that because people have New Year's resolutions.

They are like, I'm going to go get in shape.

I have New Year's resolutions, Brian, but mine are a little different.

Are you ready for these?

I am.

All right.

These are Tom Garland's top five New Year's resolutions.

These are just for me.

I'm going to do them.

Number five, I am taking time off, Brian.

Every time McDonald's brings back the McRib.

Oh.

I'm just, I'm taking it off work.

I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be eating McRibs all day.

Boss, I can't do anything this afternoon.

I'm sorry.

Number four, I'm going to adopt a highway.

Then I'm gonna adopt a bunch of Greyhounds and I'm gonna start my own racetrack.

Ooh, yep.

Then I'm gonna adopt a gaming license and adopt some cocktail waitresses.

We'll see.

We don't need a casino in Iowa.

Tom Garland just adopted a highway.

I did like dog

racing.

I

admit it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

They go and they think they're chasing like a rabbit or something like that.

And they're like, no, you're not doing that.

But somebody just lost their house.

Did you ever have any things where you'd be like, no, this dog's going to win?

No, I

have different gambling issues.

My issue is like, I go into the casino and I'm like, that machine's going to hit.

And then I'm just like shoving money and it's like pigs.

and the pig just gets getting fatter and he never pops.

And then I'm like, well, that's good.

I spent $300 on a digital pig.

It's funny that you mentioned, you know, the thing getting bigger.

I always would bet on the dog that, you know, quickly you saw it take a dump and you're like, yes, that dog is now lighter.

I'm going to bet on that dog.

On the aerodynamics of the dog.

Yes.

It's just unloaded right there at the track.

I'm sorry, I

have

unloaded, and we are stuck at number four.

He's like, yeah, it's like cool running, it's feel the rhythm, feel the run.

Take a dump, I'm ready this time,

that's great.

Wow, look at that, you can still rap.

I'm still rapping, dude, I'm, yeah.

What's number three?

These are, if you're just doing it, these are New Year's resolutions.

Number three, I'm going to start commenting, whoa, nice furniture on every porn that I watch.

Who's in the comments by the way?

I want to be in the comments, but

I don't

I just want to be in there like where can I get that sofa and like see if somebody will give me the Timur Wayfair link.

Yeah, how easy is it to get the stains out?

Yeah, just like purple couch.

How do I get one?

I feel like I see a lot of those and it seems to work for that guy.

Same color as Planet Fitness.

On the back there's just like a big Planet Fitness logo.

Something but we

can't talk about

that.

Number two, I'm gonna blame all my problems from now on on road construction.

This is a resolution of my every problem I have it's road construction.

They're gonna be like, Tom, I heard your wife left you.

And I'll be like, well, if they'd fix a road, you know, roads all torn up.

Of course she left.

Those potholes on First Avenue.

Somebody should adopt this highway and make it a race track.

And the number one New Year's resolution of mine, I swear I am going to start doing this every time I am late, and I show up late to something.

I'm gonna say, oh my gosh, I'm so sorry I was late.

I have COVID.

I just, I didn't know I was gonna make it in time.

I've got COVID though.

It's good to be here.

It's good to be here with lots of COVID.

Well, make sure that you're feeling better for your stand-up show, which is coming

out.

That

wasn't the strongest one to end up with.

You're like, make sure you're funny or two.

I'm gonna be at the CSPS, CSPS Hall Arts Theater.

It's in the New Bo district.

I'm gonna be there on February 1st at 8 p.m.

You can get tickets on my website.

It's TomGarlandStandUp.com or you can get them from CSPS.

Just Google CSPS Hall and get tickets to the show.

Don't yell out top five during

his show.

You can yell out anything you want.

I encourage that.

That should be your resolution.

If you come to my show, heckle away,

heckle away and get ready for an adopted highway dog racetrack.

I think that's a brilliant idea.

That's the way to do it.

See their words as weapons.

Thanks, Tom Garland.

It's top five Tuesday on the rock one away morning show.
