Sorry But...with Bob the Blade
Sorry But Arizona Is Hotter Than Africa. And I Know She Peeked.
The dreadful reality of the awkward world of prostate exams and beard growth struggles. If you've ever found yourself pondering the itchiness of a fledgling beard or the sheer awkwardness of a clinical full frontal during a prostate exam, you're in for the update. We bring a comedic twist to these universally cringe-worthy experiences, contemplating the need for a digital alternative and the peculiar discomforts faced by both patients and young professionals in the exam room. We wrap up with a nod to Neil Diamond's lyrics and an ongoing fascination with facial hair—all served with a generous dollop of humor and personal stories. Join us for an episode that promises more than a few chuckles and perhaps a new appreciation for the quirks of life in Arizona.
I always appreciate your support, I am very clear in my understanding of how unclear I really am of myself
and the kaleidoscope in my head makes me laugh.
Well, really, there are four things. Four things. Number one they clog up the roads. Traffic is out of this world. Let's see if you can get it before I finish. Number two they empty all the grocery stores. Excuse me, both of the grocery stores. Number three they take up all the tea times All gone. Number four they drive up the cost of housing.
Blade:I'm talking about snowbirds. All very nice people from Canada, seriously but those are the four things that they do and it's very irritating. It ruins the quality of life that we have. I actually had a tea time last week and it was, of course, with a Canadian couple and if you do get a tea time, I promise you it'll be with a Canadian couple and the woman decided she had to show me why she was a snowbird. So she has her phone and she's going to show me a picture. I was like I'm trying to worry about not shanking my next five iron. Okay, you're held hostage. When someone wants to show you a picture, I always say soy, it's a picture of where they live. And okay, I understand, I get it. I don't care, but I get it. And so the Canadians come down here for six months. They have to get back after six months because their insurance will be suspended. You see, and you can always tell when the Canadians are leaving. It's time for them to go because the RV parks and the trailer parks mobile excuse me, mobile home parks start to thin out a little bit. You say, ah, now I can drive around out a little bit. You say, ah, now I can drive around. You know, I got into a. I know it's miserable up there and record heat, like this month. It's October record heat. It's okay with me, keep it coming.
Blade:I got into a conversation with a friend of mine who's from Zambia, Africa it's like South Central Africa, the heart of Africa. So I asked him about you know what he thinks about living here in Arizona and he said living in Arizona is way too hot here. A guy from Africa is telling me it's way too hot here in Arizona. You know there's that saying. It's like oh it's hot, it's Africa hot. But that's going to have to be revised, amended. Oh it's hot, all right, arizona hot. Arizona is hotter than Africa.
Blade:Efinaconozole I saw that ad. I pay attention to these pharmaceutical ads way more than I ever did. Efinaconozole, which is some cream, ointment, pharmaceutical for yeast fungus, toenail infection. You just picture some old guy in the pharmacy. Where's my effing a con o zole? It's tadalafil that I love, t-a-d-a-l-a-f-i-l, you know the generic for men's erectile dysfunction? TA-DA!!
Blade:I walk into the desert and I reflect upon myself. It's peaceful, it's quiet, it's beautiful. What's with me? Why is it always my fault? And it is. I took on an attitude, I guess a modem of operation to survive in this earth. And it's just blame yourself. Blade, make sure it's always your fault, and I do. And it's not because I've got some insecurity or something like that, but it's because it makes it easier on me, because it's so much easier for me to forgive me than it is for me to forgive some asshole Try it, it works. Than it is for me to forgive some asshole. Try it, it works.
Blade:I am, I said I am, I cried, and I said that to nobody was there, not even the chair. I am, I cried and I I don't even know why. Neil Diamond, famed and acclaimed author and poet, Neil, you are, you said, got it. You are, you even cried, got that. But yet you don't even know why I feel cheated. That was on a Volkswagen commercial. Someone had to approve that in some marketing board room. I love it. Someone had to have said you know, but on the picture I love it. Someone had to have said you know, but on the picture I saw it during a football game. On the commercial I saw it during a football game and I am. I cried and you see pictures of a Volkswagen.
Blade:Men wearing cologne broached that subject last week. To me, I have my pride. I have my pride. Men wearing cologne broached that subject last week. To me too personal, it's too much information. I don't want to smell anything, anything on another guy. But in the gallery, some funny responses, appropriate responses. If I could find one that had the essence of gunpowder and cigar smoke I'd give it a go. That's a good one, douglas, you made me laugh. Doug Parsons, sales manager for many, many years, who made a buck or two off of Blade's ratings, or two. But bacon grease is my favorite essential oil. I appreciate your humor. I always have Mr Mack Moore, another sales representative who made a buck or two or two off of Blade's ratings, hailing from Kannapolis, North Carolina.
Blade:Beards what's the deal with beards? It's an ongoing phase. Every guy's got to have a beard. I don't care one way or the other. I cast no aspersions for people that have beards. I just recall when I didn't shave a while back, I was with some girl and she let it slip one day after I hadn't shaved for a couple of weeks. Facial pubes. Never forget that. I don't know. I don't know, hell, I don't know. If you'r noa o man, I get it because you give up, you don't care anymore. You know, you don't want to shave anymore. You don't have to shave anymore. You don't care what girls think. Girls play along.
Blade:They say, yeah, beards are cool. But here's the thing. The only aspersion I cast is this If you can't grow a beard, don't. What's the point? Look, you can't grow a beard. Why are you growing a beard? Everybody knows when they look at you, they look at you and the first thing they say is he can't grow a beard. Why is he growing a beard? Beards are cool. Who cares? Right, just don't grow one. If you can't grow one. I could never get past the itching stage. Yeah, you know, cheap big shavers work fine.
Blade:Instead of nine blades.
Blade:Yearly prostate it's a DRE, is what it's called, the yearly prostate exam. It's called a digital rectal exam. Rectal is a funny word, but it's not digital. Why isn't it digital? It's called that Everything else in the body you take a picture of to see what the result is. There's no digital rectal exam for prostate cancer. I looked it up. No, there is no. All it is is the latex glove and lubrication in the finger goes where the sun doesn't shine.
Blade:Ladies and gents, it's like the only thing you can't get an MRI for. It's horrible yearly checkup. No one likes it. How can the doctor like when he's got a bunch of guys butts in his face? You know we don't like it gulp, awful. But I was thinking. In every yearly prostate exam there's a PA in the office, some young girl you know and she's got a full frontal view. There's a PA in the office, some young girl you know, and she's got a full frontal view. And in my last one she's standing there looking down at the ground pretending to write something, not writing anything. My first thought is I know you peaked, it's okay, you can look. This is a medical, clinical situation. It's official, you can look, and it's got to be more interesting, no matter what you see, than looking at the beige tiles on the floor. It's got to be Decent exposure. Hey, it's the one chance that we get to show off without getting arrested for it. Thank you, I will show myself out.
