Steve has a bilingual morning, as he has finally had Rosie’s invisible fence repaired. He seems to have regained his childhood command of Spanish, and it’s been accompanied by all sorts of other recollections from his early years. Jon Bon Jovi and Abe Lincoln team with Steve and Brendan to comfort a despondent Dag, who imbibed a little too much at Simon’s last night, and derailed the Expo’76 set closer. He’s hoping to get back in his bandmates’ good graces. Today’s show (another holiday classic in the making?) also takes a deep dive into the history of the top hat. Hold on tight!
