Thee-oar-boe, with the initial th as in thick.
Looks like an American accent, with that oar in there, Howie. I would
say Thee - or - boe. But what do Scots know? [Don't answer that]

Most Americans would pronounce the two spellings the same
I've usually heard it as Thee-urh-bow or THAY-urh-bow in England,
with accent and soft 'th' (as in 'three') on first syllable, schwa on
the second syllable, and 'bow' as in 'bowtie'.
