Too Much Man In Black
2026/11/13
Christine details her Halloween eating struggles along with the GLP-1 drug Mounjaro. Bobby shows off another leather jacket that he might possibly wear for his comedy special taping. Jay thinks he's sporting too much black like a motorcycle gang leader. Bobby considers some flare like a pinky ring or a bandana. Jay plays a comedian named Lil Pete who also wears leather and gets cut off in the frame of his stand-up videos. *To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

Fun Glasses & Comfy Hokas
2026/11/12
Bobby quotes an old Chinese proverb "Do not pursue your enemy; sit down on the river's bank and wait for his body to float by." He refers to his comedy friends who made fun of him for wearing wacky glasses and Hoka shoes. He says that nowadays they are all sporting his comfy boomer fashion. Jay disagrees and argues that Bob was a bully back then and gets what he deserves. | There was a shooting in Austin when Jay was out on the street at the exact same time. | Jacob and Jay lament "From Dusk Till Dawn" while Bobby is convinced that the lady heroes of "Lioness" were factual characters. *To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

Doomsday Is Coming
2026/11/11
American's attendance in church is on the rise because newsmen like Glenn Beck are reporting that doomsday is upon us. People like Bobby are stocking up on water and supplies because the end of days is supposedly coming this month. Jacob goes to synagogue and is distracted by attractive women that are allowed in sometimes. Bob apologizes to Bert Kreischer because he misremembered a tubing incident in which Bob got upset. Jay rage-baits Bobby by saying his uncles attacked him while tubing. *To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

Synonymous With Elk Meat
2026/11/10
Jay and Bobby both had two very different Halloween experiences. Bob had a fun and spooky stroll with other families in his town that was worthy of a Hallmark movie. It was the perfect, wholesome holiday until he spots an elderly woman dressed in revealing lingerie. Jay was in Austin performing at The Mothership and guesting on Joe Rogan's podcast. He takes video of the chaos in the streets as young people of all sizes dress up in their most revealing costumes. | Jay talks to Shane about the reason why he actually cursed on SNL. *To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

Making Jacob Pop/Haunted Bob
2026/11/06
Jacob is totally ignored in the hallways of SiriusXM and the guys are going to change that. He needs more than a makeover, but a new persona complete with attitude and a look that pops. Jay and Bob encourage him to change his style to that of: James Bond, a quail hunter, or a the band Kiss when they are off-stage. | Bobby visits a haunted house with his son Max. The scary experience has actors at every turn waiting to freak Bobby out. He screams and curses with children present and has it all on tape for the campers to enjoy!*To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!FOLLOW THE CREW ON SOCIAL MEDIA:@thebonfiresxm@louisjohnson@christinemevans@bigjayoakerson@robertkellylive@louwitzkee@jjbwolf Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of The Bonfire ad-free and a whole week early.

Student Bodies Magazine
2026/11/03
Bobby does a gig in New Jersey for a bunch of auto mechanics at a ballroom. The audience was filled with serious, hard working men that were hard to make laugh. It got so bad that Bob had to make a brown-nosing speech at the end. At the show, a woman in charge said that she interviewed Bobby 20 years ago. It was for a local New Jersey skin magazine and she gave Bob the article. Jay reads it on the air and Bobby comes off as a ham who is trying to sound famous.*To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!FOLLOW THE CREW ON SOCIAL MEDIA:@thebonfiresxm@louisjohnson@christinemevans@bigjayoakerson@robertkellylive@louwitzkee@jjbwolf Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of The Bonfire ad-free and a whole week early.

Adult Diapers At Concerts
2026/11/02
Jay and Christine remember a time in Smashing Pumpkins history when Billy Corgan had contempt for the audience and seemed to be rushing through songs just to get it over with. | Bob has an embarrassing moment that a 5 year-old-child might have. After he made an accident in his pants, he was in a full panic and called Jay for help. Jay did not help but this sparked a conversation on adults that wear diapers to concerts so they don't have to take a bathroom break. | Jay is excited for the new Baddies series with more fighting and bad behavior.

Boston's Best Comics
2026/10/30
An unknown journalist published a bracket of the best comedians to come out of Boston. Surely the great Robert Kelly would be on that list, right? The guys go through the brackets and chose the funny person they think should advance. Many in the ranking system are not even comedians and Bobby gets a little heated. There must be some acknowledgement of Bobby's contribution to Boston comedy. | Jay is excited for Philadelphia as LeBron James takes over the city before his first game with the 6ers.*To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!FOLLOW THE CREW ON SOCIAL MEDIA:@thebonfiresxm@louisjohnson@christinemevans@bigjayoakerson@robertkellylive@louwitzkee@jjbwolf Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of The Bonfire ad-free and a whole week early.

Defending Kelly
2026/10/22
It's a well known fact that Robert Kelly loves Kelly Clarkson. He defends her honor against the rest of The Bonfire because she made news for getting snubbed in a magic shop. Kelly wanted to purchase a bird off the wall and the employee said it was not for sale. Jay said she may have been entitled in this situation and not the victim as Bobby states. Bob has inside info that the store owners are less than savory people. | Jay once threw a man down some stairs who made the best meatloaf ever.*To hear the full show go to www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!FOLLOW THE CREW ON SOCIAL MEDIA:@thebonfiresxm@louisjohnson@christinemevans@bigjayoakerson@robertkellylive@louwitzkee@jjbwolf Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of The Bonfire ad-free and a whole week early.
