    Description

    Merry Christmas to all of you and we hope you and your families have a wonderful New Year! There's not much planned for the Dennis'. This is going to sound sort of lame, but I think the vibe around the studio and even with most of our families is to try and work on health. I have a feeling that you're going to be seeing a lot of that in the new year. It only makes sense with all of us eating healthier and pulling back a bit on the drink. (HEAVY on the drugs!) But thank you guys for supporting the show. I can truly say that it is an honor to try and make you guys laugh. We're very blessed boys.  Love ya, d ### **Special Guests: Angel Rivera and Pedro Lima** - Celebrating Puerto Rican Christmas with Angel Rivera and Pedro Lima. - Discussion on the uniqueness of Puerto Rican Christmas traditions. **Festive Topics:** - Pedro's humorous take on traditional eggnog. - Pitorro: Exploring this Puerto Rican holiday drink. - The story of Angel's stolen donkey. - The vibrant and party-centric nature of Latin Christmas celebrations. - Appreciating the offerings of Latin bakeries during the festive season. - Exploring the tradition of 'Mummering'. - Discussions on inward talking and its peculiarities. - The intriguing 'Poop Log' tradition. - Recounting Christmas Eve parties and their liveliness. - A memorable story about dancing with a police officer. **Additional Topics:** - Amusing insights into tiny cooking videos. - Tom's revelation about his AOL screen name being "TRT". - A dive into the world of AI in music creation. - Light-hearted conversation on the topic of pornography. **Stay Connected:** - [Website: Tom & Dan](https://tomanddan.com/) - [Twitter: Tom & Dan on Twitter](https://twitter.com/tomanddanlive) - [Facebook: Tom & Dan on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/AMediocreTime) - [Instagram: Tom & Dan on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/tomanddanlive/) **Tune In & Turn Up:** - [Apple Podcasts: A Mediocre Time with Tom & Dan](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-mediocre-time-with-tom-and-dan/id308614478) - [Google Podcasts: A Mediocre Time with Tom & Dan](https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbWVkaW9jcmV0aW1lLmxpYnN5bi5jb20vcnNz?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj6x-_il7mBAxX2moQIHRosAQwQ9sEGegQIARAC) - [TuneIn: A Mediocre Time with Tom & Dan](https://tunein.com/podcasts/Comedy/A-Mediocre-Time-with-Tom-and-Dan-p393884/) **A Corporate Time with Tom and Dan:** - [Apple Podcasts: A Corporate Time with Tom & Dan](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-corporate-time-with-tom-and-dan/id994667625) - [Google Podcasts: A Corporate Time with Tom & Dan](https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5saWJzeW4uY29tLzYxOTc2L3Jzcw?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj6x-_il7mBAxX2moQIHRosAQwQ9sEGegQIARAD) - [TuneIn: A Corporate Time with Tom & Dan](https://tunein.com/podcasts/Comedy/A-Corporate-Time-with-Tom-and-Dan-p1836090/) **Unlock the BDM Vault:** - [Join the BDM crew at BDM Registration](https://tomanddan.com/registration) **Rock Our Swag:** - [Tom & Dan merchandise](https://tomanddan.myshopify.com/) **Join the Live Stream Party:** - [Twitch: Tom & Dan Live](https://www.twitch.tv/tomanddanlive) - [YouTube: A Mediocre Time](https://www.youtube.com/user/amediocretime) **Discover Tom & Dan Watering Holes:** - [Tom & Dan Watering Holes](https://www.tomanddanwateringholes.com/)

    Tom and Dan were once sitting in a hotel room in Daytona Beach, Florida where the air-condition didn't work, they were out of beer, and the cable only had 2 channels that came in static free. One of their friends suggested that they leave and attempt to find something better to do to which Dan replied "Why would we want to ruin a mediocre time?" If you were to ask "Tom and Dan" what the meaning of life is, they might tell you that there is none. Born from a feeling that nothing in life truly matters and that for the most part we're all surrounded by scumbags, "Tom and Dan" figured out that there's only one true constant in life; laughter. How did they come to that conclusion? It's all they have. You see, just like the mass majority of us, "T & D" have day jobs and it was at said day job where they cued in on the fact that some of the greatest laughs came at the end of the day. There's just something about the relaxed feeling of knowing that you have very little time left at work to put in. Maybe it's the "punch drunkenness" of still being at work; no one is quite sure. There they sat in their office, the door shut to their co-workers and management, only making each other laugh to the point of tears. Finally they realized that it might not be such a bad idea to roll tape on these conversations. Why not? They would be having them anyway, taped or not, and it was fun. Both of them come from rather lengthy broadcasting careers so setting up a home studio wasn't so hard to do. And with the addition of Ross, the consummate straight man and "News Dad", things got even more "mediocre." Broadcasting since 2009 has garnered a rather extensive following for "T & D" with loyal "scumbags" (as their listeners are affectionately known) checking in from all across the world. Hundreds of shows under their belts and winners of the Orlando Weekly's "Best of Orlando 2011" for "Best Kept Secret" reassures them both that yes…no one is listening! (Best Kept Secret? HA!)
