  1. Hi Mark,
    With all of the comments about people enjoying Katie I was wondering if the “daddy vs daughter” shows are still available to listen to. I think those people would enjoy it!

  2. Mark,

    I’m a devoted listener from back in the day of the M&B Show. Also, listened and called in a few times on the Mark and Lynda show. I just want to say that you haven’t lost a step. You and Katie in the room together last week utterly KILLED it!!! So damn funny!!! Keep up the great work, and please don’t ever stop broadcasting and podcasting.

    Sincerely,
    Brian C.

  3. Great to hear Katie this past week, BUT… you didn’t even let her talk. Jesus Mark, shut your mouth once and let the girl get a few words in. Seriously, the only thing she did was say three words after every story you read. The only time you asked her a question was at the very end of the show as the goodbye music was playing. That was the best part of the podcast. Please have her on again soon and for the love of god, ask her a few questions: island questions, is she still working in radio or what does she do, etc. Come on daddy….do better.

  4. After 98 episodes of “Gilligan’s Island,” Tina Louise would prefer to not to talk about Ginger, her 1960s character. She can barely utter the name of the program, referring to it as “G.I.” or “The Series.” Luckily, to the Manhattan children she tutors, she’s just Ms. Tina. https://nyti.ms/3DDbIO7

    I’m behind a couple of episodes on your podcast, RG, but this I just saw on Facebook reminded me of “it’s a parasol!” , which always makes me laugh.

    Also, I can still hear Lynda’s voice saying “yeah!” Or “fuck!” during what year is it. 😀 Miss you, Lynda!

  6. Love the show with Katie! Miss hearing what she is up to and the shit comes out of her mouth. That girl doesn’t hold back and we love it! Miss Lynda!

  7. OMG Katie!! That girl is a crack up! I think my favorite quote after all the daddy references that had her almost walking out on ya was when y’all started to talk about Linda’s cooking. And Katie says “well, I remember when I was a kid, like the meals weren’t good, but she was, she was tryin’, she was putting her WHOLE PUSSY into it and it wasn’t, it wasn’t eh”. Freakin’ Katie!! And yes I echo what everyone else is sayin’, you should absolutely have her on a regular basis, maybe not every week, cause she’s BUSY! But once a month? Once a quarter?
    Keep up the funny old man! And thanks for continuing to constantly entertain!

    • Morning Mark, as always, great show. That woman that killed her dog, She should be charged with murder. She wasn’t defending herself or helping her dog.

  8. Howdy Mark,

    Just thought I’d get off my ass and send another comment. As with most of us, I started listening to you early in the M&B days. I’m the Retired State Trooper that wrote you about the “cutcha guy” traffic stop. Here is an idea for your What You Do podcast. Invite two police officers from different types of agencies (city police, state trooper, sheriff’s deputy etc) with at least 10 years on the job or retired and from different parts of the country. Ask them about the strangest, funniest (weird and wacky), saddest and most rewarding things they’ve encountered. Sit back, laugh and cry. It would be the same with two firefighter paramedics (the paramedic part is important). Along with the stress, risk, politics and witnessing the worst and best of people, you see some of the most unbelievable and funniest shit ever.

    Being a veteran, I have written a numerous of short stories about some of my contacts with veterans while working. Here is one (feel free to use it):

    Veterans I’ve Met on the Road

    By Jeff Leighty

    In 27 years as an Oregon State Trooper, I have had some memorable encounters with veterans. Here’s another one.

    During my career, the federal government gave grants to police agencies to enforce certain safety issues — including seat belt usage. These funds were used to pay overtime for officers to focus on such enforcement. At my office, you could sign up for this overtime duty in 4-hour blocks.

    I didn’t care much for working seat belt overtime as Oregon had a very high percentage of seat belt compliance and I always felt a little self-imposed guilt when I would go an entire overtime shift without issuing one citation for failure to wear a seat belt.

    I had plenty of other activity but it seemed the only time I saw a seat belt violation was when someone drove past without one while I was on another traffic stop.

    One afternoon on my day off I was a little bored so I called the on-duty supervisor and asked if there was any grant overtime available. He authorized a 4-hour block of seat belt enforcement.

    So I suited up, fired up the Crown Vic and went off in search of seat belt scofflaws. Surely I would be able to find one or two. Three and a half hours into the shift, however, history was repeating itself. Plenty of stops for other violations but none for the reason I was out there.

    I was parked perpendicular to the roadway where I could observe traffic in both directions when I observed a minivan approaching with two occupants. I could see the passenger in the right front seat wearing his seat belt but it appeared the driver was not. I needed to confirm the violation and as they passed there it was: the silver buckle shining, dangling in the window.

    Making the stop, I contacted the driver, who looked to be in his 70s. The passenger was maybe in his 40s.

    “Sir the reason I stopped you is that you’re not wearing your seat belt,” I told him.

    He said that he had just forgotten to put it on.
    “Your passenger didn’t,” I noted.

    The driver was wearing a U.S. Navy veteran ball cap. Normally I would have asked about his service and — being a Coast Guard veteran — might have told him a Navy/Coast Guard joke and issued a warning for the seat belt violation.

    But I was out here to do seat belt enforcement. Maintaining a professional bearing, I obtained his driver’s license and returned to my patrol car to write the citation. During the initial contact the passenger stared straight ahead and never said a word or looked at me.

    I scratched out the citation and returned to the vehicle.

    “Sir I’m going to issue a citation for failure to wear a seat belt,” I told him. “The instructions for handling this are on the back and you may take care of it by mail if you wish.”

    Without hesitating, he said: “Would it help if I just got out of the car and whipped your ass?”

    The passenger finally spoke up.

    “Jesus, Dad!” he said. .

    I didn’t react at all.

    I had noticed that the driver had a slight smile on his face when he said what he did, so I knew it hadn’t been a genuine threat.

    In my most stern voice, I said, “Sir — let me have that citation.”

    His son, who clearly hadn’t seen the smile said: “Nice job, Dad!” I’m sure he’s going to add something else to that ticket.

    Remaining serious, I tore the citation in half.

    “The last thing I need today is to get my ass whipped by some old Navy geezer,” I said.
    I didn’t wait for his reaction, I returned to my patrol car and drove off.

    I can only imagine how many times that story was told and how many times his son said “No it’s true, I was there!”

    I did take credit for a seat belt warning though. Damn it was a fun job.

    All the best

  10. Don’t diss on pee. Amniotic fluid (what babies grow in) is primarily urine. It contains stem cells and other valuable nutrients. Waste goes out the other way.

    Ever hear that you’re supposed to pee on a jellyfish sting? Your pee is medicine. Snake charmers keep a bottle of their urine near them in case they are bit. Military survivalists are taught that it can be drank to prevent dehydration. IT CAN EVEN CURE CANCER.

    Shivambu (or Urine Therapy) has been practiced for thousands of years in the east. Check out the documentary ‘Urine Aid’.

    Love y’all

  12. Hey Mark, Vince in Riverside. I am unofficily listener number 1( I actually listened to that KLOS clock ticking, and no offense to Frasier Smith but it was almost as entertaining. JK.) . I have decided to break my almost 40 years of listening and drop my advice on you. Katie should be considered your new side host/ partner. great voice, strong personailty and comments. You do the interviews but she would be awesome on the first half of fun shit you do. Now do not ignore this advice mother fucker. Love you

    The strong and silent type. Vince
