Ghost Students & Curmudgeon Day: The Secret Scams and the Weirdest Holiday We All Celebrate

When the federal aid vanishes into a phantom classroom and the nation crowns a day for professional grumps, the truth is stranger—and funnier—than any fake degree

In today’s episode, host Bobby Dewrell steps in for the missing Schuylar and teams up with the ever‑sarcastic Tom Mason (a.k.a. “the man behind ByTomCat”) to fire off a rapid‑fire rundown of the nation’s most ridiculous holidays—Dog‑Day, Free Thinker’s Day, Curmudgeon’s Day and more—while dropping the perfect soundtrack for each.

Between the jokes, the crew tackles a handful of hot‑talk topics: a growing “ghost‑students” scam draining federal college aid, the controversial shift toward “natural” versions of Doritos and Cheetos, the ever‑confusing tipping culture for pickup orders, and a tongue‑in‑cheek look at the health‑care divide between doctors and pharmacists.

Listeners also get a slice of “Ask Uncle Bobby,” with a brutally honest take on workplace jealousy, plus the usual sponsor shout‑outs (Okaloosa Gas, Stripes Pub & Grill, Outcast Sushi, and Tomcat Custom Apparel) and a reminder that the full, ad‑free replay is waiting at thebteamshow.com.

So crank up the volume, grab a coffee, and get ready for a three‑hour mash‑up of classic rock, sharp‑tongued banter, and the kind of “news you didn’t know you needed” that keeps the Emerald Coast buzzing.
