Episode 0132 - Paddy, Peeps, and Pal’s
Frank & Friends Show
Friday, March 22, 2024 - 1 hour 5 minutes
Frank Murphy is joined by his friend Sarah Roberto, who arrived early for the recording. Frank came from a family that runs late but his wife Jere came from a family that runs early.
Frank’s friend Bean is moving back to England this week. They made plans to meet for lunch at a restaurant in Harriman. Frank planned to be early for their meeting but his car wouldn’t start and he had to buy a new battery. Instead of being thirty minutes early, he was four minutes late for lunch.

Frank’s friend Bean sent him Dr Pepper flavored Peeps. Sarah can taste the Dr Pepper flavor more easily than Frank can. Sarah thinks that Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are better than the Reese’s holiday shapes but Frank prefers the holiday Reese’s even if the eggs, hearts, and pumpkins look very similar.
Frank likes to remind his friends that St. Patrick is associated with three-leaf shamrocks not four-leaf clovers. He also points out that the shortened form of Patrick is Paddy. Jere made shepherd’s pie and Irish soda bread for St. Patrick’s Day.
Frank and Jere saw their friend Fr. Michael Woods riding atop a fire engine in the Knox St. Patrick’s Parade and yelled "céad míle fáilte" to him. The grand marshal was comedian Josh Mancuso.
Sarah made her first trip to Walt Disney World in January. She and her husband stayed for four days and chose the least busy week to visit.
During Spring break Sarah and her husband took a short road trip to get a cheeseburger, fries, and a shake at Pal’s in Jefferson City. The chain is only found in northeast Tennessee.
Sarah says in her marriage, her husband gets the mail. When they were newlyweds, an older relative advised Frank and Jere to never open the other person’s mail.
Frank is surprised that Sarah and her husband can unlock each other’s phones with their faces and that they also use the “share my location” feature to know their spouse’s whereabouts.
