You're listening to the HMS Podcast, brought to you by MMP Guns.com, your most trusted online marketplace for firearms, ammunition and accessories.
Toledo
I ain't going to make it.
Brett
You're in trouble.
Toledo
Hold on. I got a popcorn hall stuck somewhere between my nose and my throat. It's in the back of my. Just a little bit. It won't go away. That's right. We eat popcorn for breakfast here because my parents trained me that. That was a delightful breakfast.
Brady
That's cheap enough.
Toledo
I can't fix it anyway. I'll get through this if I can't.
Brett
That's why they serve it in Cus. Because you don't want to talk while it's popcorn.
Toledo
I don't know anything about that.
Brett
It fires down the throat.
Toledo
Don't want to breathe. That's for sure. The Waterloo's not helping.
Brett
The fizzy bubbly.
Toledo
I had the fizzy bubbly I thought would melt this thing. How come popcorn in your hand is so, like, fragile, but in your throat it's like barbed wire. You can't get like. You'd think that the liquids would just mush it down, but that weird little hull. Whose idea was it to buy popcorn?
Brady
Toledo bought last.
Toledo
Just have Laffy Taffy as snacks and ruin our life.
Brett
Good.
Toledo
It is pretty good. Thanks to the folks over at Skinny Pop for killing me this morning. It's all organic. You can tell because it says so. It's time now for Brady to do Brady. It's on you to do the Sorry Brady Report, brought to you by our friends at All Pro Shade. They make shade. Ask them about it. AllProChade.com Brady Report it.
Brett
Good Tuesday morning to you, Phoenix. Hello, world. Happy National Rubber Ducky Day. And public radio broadcasting.
Toledo
TV or.
Brett
No, the real one.
Toledo
The ones in the Ernie Bathtub, Rubber.
Brett
Ducky or in the dash of your Jeep.
Toledo
Yeah, loads of those.
Brady
Yeah. Not Kris Kristofferson.
Toledo
Not that. All right, get on. Get your ears on. Rubber Ducky. Have you ever seen the movie Convoy?
Brady
That's horrible.
Toledo
I think I have. I started thinking about it.
Brett
Was. Was he Rubber Ducky?
Toledo
Yeah, he was Rubber Ducky, right.
Brady
Burt Young was in it.
Toledo
That's right. I remember. Got arrested.
Brady
Oh, that was. Who was the sheriff? Was it Ernest Borgnine?
Toledo
I was gonna say Eli. Eli Wallach, but that's not right. It might be Ernest Borgnine, but I. I don't think I've ever seen it, like, start to finish. I think I've seen so much of Convoy, the crap movie from the 70s, that I think I've seen away.
Brett
What were some other handles? Do you remember? Like.
Toledo
I don't remember any. I just remember rubber ducky because that's in the song.
Brady
Yeah, there's. Yeah. Ursborg 9. Bert Young.
Toledo
That was the sheriff.
Brady
Widow woman was one of the spider Mike was one. When I don't know this off the top of my head, I'm looking it up. A lizard tongue was another handle.
Toledo
Got to earn that.
Brady
Yeah. White rat.
Toledo
Well, that's just. There's pack rats. Not to be confused with.
Brett
There's some good CB talk in there.
Brady
No kidding.
Toledo
I have a CB in my white jeep for four wheeling. Tried to get that going for a little while. It's just. There's nobody on those anymore. It's just drug deals.
Brett
You're kind of young. What was your handle?
Toledo
Well, I had multiples.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
I was Elton John Bunny. My aunt gave me that and I thought it was funny because I had sunglasses that had rabbits on them. She said I look like Elton John with rabbits in my face. Elton John Bunny. And then the other one was JD JD10. And then there was a road toad. That was you? Yeah, I had another one.
Brett
Was like looking for a southbounder Road toad.
Toledo
Yeah. Young hot anus was another one that I. I tooled around.
Brett
Sailor boy.
Toledo
Hot sailor child. It's a child. Buster Brown. Cracker Jack, I think was another one.
Brett
Busfield gold.
Toledo
Yeah. Bust. Yeah. Bus field's mine up for anything. 6 9. I think I remember. I remember what that. That might be an email.
Brett
You got Casey's attic toy.
Toledo
Got your ears on. This is Gacy's Bunny. What?
Brett
Couple of basis fun facts. Maya Angelou was the first black woman in San Francisco to be employed as a streetcar conductor.
Toledo
No kidding.
Brett
Alligators go through a pseudo hibernation in the winter.
Toledo
We were so racist. We didn't trust black women to just ride on cars that were going one way. I know, but it's like you're only. It only like it didn't need A.
Brett
Person needs to be strong enough.
Toledo
Yeah. We were so racist.
Brett
Yes.
Toledo
That we wouldn't let a black lady put the uniform on and say all aboard. Because that's.
Brett
Could have been the men too. They just didn't want her on there.
Toledo
Yeah, well, I mean she had the double whammy back in the her day, but. All right, we're gonna take a chance here and hire a African American woman. I'm sure that's. To do what? Stand on that train and say everybody on. Everybody off a trot. One of our trolleys will have a black lady telling us what to do. What's this world coming to?
Brett
She's taking a man's job.
Toledo
Yeah, but. Yeah, but there were white women doing it or we wouldn't say otherwise. We just say she was the first woman. She also happened to be.
Brett
True. Yeah.
Toledo
We didn't trust a black woman to just say, next stop right there. It only goes one place. A streetcar. Right. Those are the ones on trails or on the tracks. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Brett
Rice a Roni.
Brady
That billboards.
Toledo
All I remember. That's all I remember him from is Rice a Roni stuff. Those people were so excited about Rice. And they just went up the hill and there was a conductor.
Brett
It went down too.
Toledo
Oh, sure. They had to go get him again. That is baffling to me. I don't. You know, I'm a bigot, I admit that. But that's towards all races and genders, all 101 of them. But I can't imagine being so racist that I wouldn't trust somebody to just say, get in.
Brady
I think it's more of the woman thing.
Toledo
Well, there's a lot of that that didn't matter. But again, I don't think I've ever been that distrusting of a woman to say that. That's. That seems about right. Like, even if I hated them in the 70s, I'm like, they can't do anything. You think she could stand on the edge of this thing and get everybody in and out? Even a woman can do that. That would 60s they'd have said that. Even a woman can do that. That's crazy.
Brett
Alligators go through a pseudo hibernation in the winter and they keep their noses above the surface of the water. So it freezes over, they can still breathe. Have you ever seen it? There's pictures that you see. There will be a lake and freeze over and you'll just see the.
Toledo
The gator snout just poking out the top.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
I've avoided that my whole life. And I'm going to keep doing it.
Brett
I've only seen the pictures. I've never gone like to a leg. I'm like, holy. And that can't happen too often. But they have the ability because they're not. Every now and then, Florida, there's a freeze.
Toledo
They're dinosaurs.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
We literally still have dinosaurs. It's the weirdest thing that we don't make a bigger deal out of that. But Those are dinosaurs.
Brett
25% of the US parents are unmarried. That's not a huge change from 30 years ago. It was 21%, but it's a massive increase from 60 years ago. It was just 7%.
Toledo
Unmarried documents weren't as good. You could hide stuff easier. You just gave birth in a barn.
Brett
Brett, you'll like this one. Frank Sinatra supposedly hired thugs to beat up comedian Jackie Mason for making fun of him for marrying Mia Farrow, who was 30 years younger. After Mason had his face wired back together, he kept making jokes. He'd say, frank Sinatra saved my life one night. He said, boys, that's enough.
Brady
That's funny.
Toledo
That's a great joke. I wish you to beat him up again when he did Caddyshack, too.
Brady
Oh, man.
Brett
This website, lovelifeacademy.com made a list together of the best breakup foods in every state.
Toledo
There's breakup foods?
Brett
Yeah. When you break up, if you've been broken up, what food do you go to for a cup? You know, comfort food.
Brady
Oh, okay.
Brett
So in Arizona, our comfort food was. Well, let's see. Let's go Ohio first. Ohio and Indiana was grilled cheese.
Toledo
You break up and you eat grilled cheese. Did they just interview one guy? Because I think I know who might have been grilled cheese. Good. After breakup. This is good. It's good during a relationship and before a relationship.
Brett
Also.
Toledo
By the way, somebody.
Brett
Arizona's potato chips.
Toledo
Sure. Just a bag of chips after somebody dumps you. So this guy said, would you trust Megan to drive a trolley? It's a lot safer than driving a car.
Brady
Still gotta control the speed and everything else, too, which he's not gonna go fast.
Toledo
No, totally. She'd be the safest one. She's off the rails in a vehicle.
Brett
Montana's chicken noodle soup.
Toledo
That's breakup. I've never.
Brady
That's Illinois.
Toledo
Like, breakup.
Brett
I'm looking.
Toledo
Most time when you break up, you don't eat right. You end up, like, just being depressed and not eating. I guess I'm talking to Brady about that. It doesn't make sense.
Brett
Popcorn. Illinois. Skinny pop.
Brady
Hell, not in Illinois. It's not skinny pop.
Toledo
No, it's not.
Brady
That's full butter.
Toledo
That's. That's full butter. I actually call it fat pop. 98. What?
Brett
98.
Toledo
No way. Holmberg's morning sickness.
Brett
Gen zers have a new term. It's going around. Chapel ganger.
Toledo
Okay.
Brett
Means you look like someone else. So you're like a doppelganger, but an uglier version.
Toledo
Oh, like me with Johnny Sins. I'm his chapel ganger. He's the I say that about guy. I'm like that's the handsome me. I consider myself a chapel ganger to about 700 bald guys. I've been a chapel ganger to tons of people. Who are you? A chapel ganger. Who are you? You look like him, but he's Butterbean. You think he's the better version of you?
Brett
No, no, no. I'm the uglier version.
Toledo
Yeah, yeah. You think Butterbeans are better?
Brett
No, I'm a better version of that.
Rachel
Yeah.
Brett
Let's see.
Toledo
That would mean. Hold on, Brady. Brad, stop. That would mean. Yeah, that would mean that. You think Butterbean is your chapel ganger.
Brett
Doppelganger. No, he'd be more of a doppelganger.
Toledo
You think you're even?
Brett
No, but I've. People have, over the years, said, hey, Butterbean, let's just mean I just saw you.
Toledo
I'm asking you, in your opinion because you just said you're better looking than Butterbean. Yeah. Does that make him your chapel ganger?
Brett
Yes.
Toledo
Yeah.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
That's big of you to say that. That you're better than that man by quite a bit. A lot. You said that? Yes, you did.
Brett
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did.
Toledo
You're better than him. Better looking.
Brett
Better looking.
Toledo
You don't know that, man.
Rachel
You'd rip out a transmission as fast as you go into reverse.
Toledo
So true. Yeah. I'm surprised the whole block hasn't fallen out of them.
Brett
Sorry.
Toledo
Had to throw it in park while we were moving.
Brett
Sometimes you just got to be decisive.
Toledo
That's you, my friend. You are one of those guys. Yeah. I've got like, 20 that I'm the chapel ganger of, and no one's my chapel ganger because I'm the lowest of the low. So I'm. I'm at baseline one, and everyone that sort of looks like me, I'm the uglier version of that. So I would say.
Rachel
So I'm confused. So this. They're the chapel.
Toledo
I'm their chapel gang.
Brett
You are.
Toledo
It's. They're the handsome me. And there's no going beneath this scale.
Rachel
The chapel ganger is at the bottom.
Toledo
It's. Well, it's. You're just the uglier. Like, I don't know who you think you look like. Who do people tell you you look like? Easter island monolith.
Brett
Yep. There you go.
Toledo
You would be their chop.
Rachel
Say those things are better looking.
Toledo
Then you're the monolith. Chopel G. People say you look like.
Brady
I get Andy Garcia.
Toledo
You're the chapel ganger of Andy Garcia. Because he's the handsome you.
Brett
Yeah. And Brady Butterbean Jay and Silent Bob.
Toledo
Oh, yeah. Dante from. From clerk.
Brady
I think he's my chapel ganger. In that.
Toledo
I think. In that. I think you're better looking than him. Johnny Sins is without quite. There was a guy, my friend Jordan, brought his brother to a son's game and. And he says to me, you get kind of a Johnny Sins vibe, only not. And I'm like, it's exactly. You're exactly right. Everything about him is a little bit better than me. And I can accept that. It's just nice to be in the. You know, it's like nice to be nominated.
Brett
The first autistic Barbie, by the way.
Toledo
Hold on. Who does he look like? Who does Toledo look like? We've never even noticed that. You don't look like anyone.
Rachel
Right.
Toledo
You're just kind of.
Rachel
When the only thing. Like when I was young, like, really young, and Richard Marks was coming around.
Toledo
I had longer Richard Marks.
Rachel
I'm just saying.
Brady
Got an old picture with the hair.
Toledo
Hold on to the Knights. Richard Marks.
Rachel
Let me see if I can find your own.
Brett
When you had your mullet going.
Rachel
Oh, yeah.
Brady
Did your sister date the guitar player from Richard?
Toledo
Drummer. Studio drummer.
Rachel
Yeah, the studio drummer.
Toledo
The studio traveling on the second one. Let's hold on to the night. What was the first one? He had two big.
Rachel
Don't Mean Nothing was the. Was his first hit.
Toledo
Don't Mean Nothing.
Brady
Donovan said Toledo is a chapel ganger of Rachel. Raiders. Rachel Maddox.
Toledo
Rachel Maddow. Who's Rachel Maddox?
Rachel
Maybe that's somebody else.
Toledo
Oh, Rachel Maddow. You are kind of the Rachel Maddox. I can see that. She's the better version of you. Gotta put you on something. You don't look like anyone.
Brady
See the long hair? You got it.
Rachel
I'm trying to find one.
Toledo
Richard Marks. Didn't he have go through my dark long hair?
Rachel
Yeah.
Brett
Darker.
Rachel
Yeah.
Toledo
I don't see it.
Rachel
Let me see you pull up a picture of Richard Marks first from like 80 or from like 91, maybe for a little while.
Toledo
You look like Adam Schefter, the NFL Insider.
Brett
There you go.
Toledo
But not now.
Rachel
No, Chapel.
Brett
That was.
Rachel
That was going around when we were in Tampa.
Toledo
Yeah, but then you stood next to him, and I'm like, no.
Rachel
Yep.
Toledo
It's. I just thought you looked like him. And then we. You don't. Andy Garcia is a good one for Brett.
Brady
Yeah, I've heard that a few times.
Toledo
Mine is both Johnny Sins and the sloth from the Goonies.
Brett
You know, else Is a Chapel gang of mine. Andy Reid.
Brady
That's true.
Toledo
Now hold on. Which one do you think's better there?
Rachel
Which one? They're all better there.
Toledo
No, no. Andy. Andy. You think he's the uglier version?
Brady
You do?
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
Okay, well, we can't get them all.
Brady
Right.
Rachel
A thousand on that.
Toledo
You and Andy Reid have similarities. That is true. I'm not sure which of you I'd rather be. And I think that's what determines the Chapel gang. Or at least physically.
Rachel
Oh, okay. I was gonna say, you know which.
Toledo
One I'd rather be in real life. Like if I could swap by. If I could Freaky Friday with either Brady read.
Brady
Oh, this one just came.
Toledo
Brady's going to be fine without me. Oh, there's Butterbean and Brady.
Brett
Yeah, that's.
Toledo
I didn't realize that. Now you think you are his superior, according to you.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
It's a toss up.
Brett
Well, that's his. That's the best. He's looking right there.
Toledo
Which one is he again? I can't tell the side by side of you and Butterbean.
Rachel
Oh, it's the HMS logo. That's the one that gets it.
Toledo
He looks to be in better shape than Butterbean's ever been in. In that photo, he's actually got definition in his pectorals.
Brett
Yeah, that's his prime in fighting.
Toledo
Yeah.
Brett
Right there.
Toledo
So right there you're the chapel ganger. Yeah. In that picture. I think maybe that's the beans. I think the bean wins. If we went to the mall.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
And said, ladies, which one then that determines if you're a chapel.
Brett
Yeah. Like go to Butterbee.
Toledo
This one says, I think Toledo looks like Tom Arnold.
Rachel
Okay. There's my senior picture.
Toledo
That is Richard Marks looking at Toledo's senior picture. Oh, my God.
Brett
There is. There's.
Toledo
Were you working at TGI Fridays? What's with the shirt?
Rachel
That was cool at the time, like you said. I think it was like our one store in town was the Bon Marche.
Toledo
I don't know what that means.
Rachel
Macy's now.
Toledo
Oh, a lot of. Lot of denim on you in the kids.
Brett
That is totally stranger things.
Toledo
Yeah.
Brett
Right there.
Toledo
It's a good look.
Rachel
Yeah, I'm bringing it back.
Brady
Yeah.
Brett
Was that done at all in Mills?
Rachel
I don't remember.
Toledo
The local photo outside his dad's house.
Rachel
His backyard had like a wagon wheel and a stage coach in it.
Toledo
Montana. You all do.
Brady
Well, this. This. This one came through too for you, Rachel, Matt.
Toledo
And that's pretty good. Too's got the same Hair y Rachel mad. I can see that says Toledo. I'll be here. Chapel Ganger said, honestly, Toledo resembles the murderer that killed the dentist and his wife in Columbus, Ohio. I haven't seen that guy yet. Toledo doesn't really have one. Keith Jardine and I the fighter.
Rachel
That's tough call.
Toledo
That's a tough call. One of us is uglier than the other and it's hard to determine because we're both so insanely ugly. Yeah. That was you and Adam Schefter. I thought you guys looked alike till you were next to each other and I realized that your head is the size of a semi truck. And he's a normal man.
Brett
Yeah.
Rachel
And he's also very tiny.
Toledo
He is short.
Brady
Christopher said, so Brady's rose colored glasses work in mirrors too.
Toledo
Yeah. He stared at. That's a tough day though. You got to give Brady credit for tolerating that. To look at a picture of you side by side to Butterbean and go, I don't know who's better. That's a tough look. I'm well into my admission of ugliness. I'm not sure Brady is there yet.
Brady
Well, wasn't he a seven when he.
Toledo
Gave himself a seven when we first started asking.
Brett
Might have bumped up now he said.
Rachel
Seven and a half.
Toledo
It's like Dale has that same thing. And his. He's the Chapel Ganger of Frankenstein.
Brady
That picture, that silhouette. The we posted horrified. Yeah.
Brett
So the first autistic Barbie just rolled out. She's part of the diversity and inclusion campaign Mattel launched a few years ago. They released first the Barbie Down Syndrome 2023. And now there's also a Barbie with type 1 diabetes.
Toledo
There is. You got to give her insulin every. Every day.
Brett
I don't know about that.
Toledo
You teach her how to do intravenous needle use.
Brett
He's tired sometimes.
Toledo
I guess that's subcutaneous. The. It's for diversity. So only kids who don't have it should buy this.
Rachel
That's what I don't understand.
Brett
This Barbie cusses too. You put.
Rachel
No, but Tourette's. But wait, if it's for diversity, shouldn't it be for.
Toledo
Yeah, it's not for the kids who are neurodivergent. They can't have it. They have to have a normal one.
Rachel
It's for normal kids to include them.
Toledo
Right. That's not what normal kids are gonna do that. And you say it avoids eye contact.
Brett
I don't know.
Toledo
It has like a big.
Brett
There is a video of the first Autistic Barbie that just rolled out. But I.
Rachel
What a video going me.
Brett
What?
Toledo
Well, maybe I read.
Brett
I don't think the Barbie's talking.
Toledo
No, it's just a Barbie doll that neurodivergent or autistic. And aren't there like wild levels of that?
Rachel
Yeah.
Brett
Yes.
Toledo
What?
Brett
98.
Toledo
No way. Holmberg's morning sickness.
Rachel
But also isn't it like the elf on the shelf? It is what you say it is.
Toledo
Yeah. Can't you just make your regular Barbie? Oh, she's autistic.
Brady
Really?
Toledo
She's low on the spectrum, but she's got it. She's adhd. ADHD Barbie. So it doesn't move. She's also comatose Barbie. If you want to just put. She's also Nathan Sutherland's girlfriend. If you turn her over. How strange is that? And it's for diversity, which basically means all the kids who have autism will have the autism doll and there will be no diversity. Everyone will have it. Is it a celebration of autism?
Brett
They can have the original Barbies, right?
Toledo
Yeah, but can't you make like Toledo said, Can't you just make that.
Rachel
Can't just say it is whatever it is, whatever you want it to be.
Toledo
Look, if I told my.
Rachel
Isn't that their point?
Brett
Yeah, but you can't make money on that.
Toledo
Yeah, but it's true. But if you just told it. Yeah, but you'd still have to buy a Barbie. Go. This one's got loads of Asperger's. Like no kidding.
Rachel
They're making all the money.
Toledo
Like who's gonna question that your Barbie has Asperger's.
Brett
Let alone creating that and then not getting catching any flack for the design.
Toledo
What she look like? Does she have.
Brett
Yeah, because I haven't fish eyes seen down syndrome Barbie either.
Toledo
Oh man, that would. Does she have a thick ass?
Brett
And then it's type 1 diabetes.
Toledo
She's just thicker or skinny. Super skinny.
Brett
Skinny has a little side thing on the.
Toledo
Can you kill her?
Brett
Little.
Toledo
She got a port plug in.
Brett
Yeah, port.
Toledo
Can you kill Hatch. Diabetic Barbie?
Rachel
The ports are now on the back of their arms though.
Toledo
Yeah, but so what can you kill her? Because then her diabetes doesn't matter if it's not life threatening.
Rachel
True. Yeah.
Toledo
You got a few.
Brett
Well, when she goes to the parties, you know when you have the doll party great.
Toledo
You got to have sugar free jello gluten sucks. Can you just tear her legs off like I used to do to Barbies? I mean they still are.
Brett
Maybe they come off easy. Oh, yeah. So.
Toledo
But the diabetic ones scream.
Brett
I guess maybe they just turn color.
Toledo
Does she look more like Wilford Brimley? Is that the diabetic Barbie? I think that's really strange that we consider that diversity. A chunk of plastic that's got autism. I understand the skin color one. That makes sense to me. Yeah, absolutely. That to me is like, oh, like why do Barbies all look like that? If I was black, does that make sense?
Brett
But jaundice Barbie.
Toledo
But like down syndrome kids even know like there's a reason these that like the doll shouldn't have it. Like it's good. Good. I'm glad that doll doesn't have this like down syndrome kids aren't rooting for their toys to be too, are they? She's ripped down syndrome Barbie.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
Is she short, squatty?
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
Thick ass? Strong? She can throw Ken across the room. Do they make.
Brett
Doesn't say.
Toledo
Interesting.
Brett
It's Barbie.
Toledo
They only screw with the chromosomes of Barbie.
Brett
You gotta match it up. Gotta have. Yeah.
Toledo
You gotta have life on the spectrum. Doll dating.
Brady
Diabetic Barbie is missing a foot.
Toledo
Their toes are green. I wonder if you don't get her her insulin if her feet start like turning colors. What's the. Don't know.
Brett
What is the. Yeah, what is the. Maybe some education. But you'd have to read about that because the. The dolls really.
Rachel
Okay. What you make them gives her. It gives her a set of headphones which a lot of neurodivergence have to.
Brady
Got some beats on.
Toledo
And she just taps her ears the whole time.
Rachel
You've seen them.
Toledo
She's still hot though. And now she's a little bit slow. She looks fine. She's put headphones on a Barbie.
Rachel
She's got a screen.
Toledo
Of course he's got her screen. And she just wants to ignore you. Barbie wants to be in her own space. That's dumb. Did they have that in the Barbie movie? They didn't have a special one today. I don't remember.
Rachel
It wasn't America Fiera, The. The Big girl.
Brett
Would you call her the.
Rachel
Didn't Barbie have a big.
Toledo
Put it on me.
Rachel
No, no, no. You knew all like all the different Fat Barbie.
Toledo
They have a name for her. Fat Barbie. I thought they had a name for her International Barbie.
Rachel
Bigger Barbie. Because it was all about inclusion again.
Toledo
Big Bone Barbie.
Brett
Yeah, yeah.
Toledo
They don't make a plus special. Ken.
Rachel
Says Lego also sells a variety of minifigures with non visible disabilities.
Toledo
It is what you want. Money. They're stealing money.
Rachel
It is what you want it to be.
Toledo
And wouldn't your kid with diabetes like, not want his doll to have it? Like, you hear, it's just like you. It's like, oh, poor bastard.
Rachel
Listen to this. The guy who's the chief executive of Ambitious about Autism charity says, you know, theoretically any Barbie can be reimagined as autistic because autism doesn't have one look. But representation is powerful and Barbie is an iconic toy. So he hoped many autistic children feel pride at seeing some of their experiences reflected in this new.
Toledo
So wouldn't that be like molested by my uncle? Barbie would be relatable to some of them.
Rachel
You can. It could be what you want it to be.
Brett
John.
Rachel
The Timothy. Timothy Busfield doll.
Toledo
I worked with Timothy Busfield Barbie. She cries when you tickle her.
Brett
Child actor.
Toledo
I have lots of triggers. Barbie. Evit Barbie. Yeah. Not that racist.
Brady
Barbie found Brady.
Toledo
Well, that's AI though. Oh, he made Brady AIed Brady and Butterbean together. Look at, look at the lack of genitals and how tight those shorts are.
Rachel
Which looks like the Bogarine.
Toledo
Yeah, that is a hot vagina. That. Those are too tight in the center. Interesting. Chapel gangers.
Brett
This is kind of cool. An ex con named Kerwin Pittman runs a charity that helps inmates ease back into society and get jobs. He's now the first former inmate to own a prison. He bought an abandoned jail in North Carolina and he's turning into a workforce. Campus can house up to 300 people. You need a place to live where they get out and they learn job skills. He'll fill the 300 beds and then they'll live there and they'll train and learn to be plumbers. AC work.
Toledo
That's good.
Brett
It's a six month program and they get out and they get placed into jobs. Keep them busy and he rolls them over again. So another 300 come in, get trained for six months. It's a pretty cool idea.
Toledo
Eric. Brian from Precision. Yeah. New AC unit. And. Well, that's Bodhi. But he goes to the prisons and tells him, guys, get on this and you get a second chance. You gotta come out with that skill.
Rachel
Do they do that here in Arizona in the prisons?
Toledo
They do, yeah. They teach you all sorts of stuff.
Rachel
Workforce training. John, you realize Brady's already had a Barbie. It was called Oregon Barbie. Short hair, plaid, flannel and a Subaru Outback.
Toledo
Maybe that's his chapel ganger.
Brady
Yeah.
Toledo
They have lesbian Barbie. Do they have going through gender questions Barbie, Transition Barbie. Yeah. Trans. Trans Barbie. If we're doing all this like gender.
Rachel
Fluid Barbie as I think you're talking about.
Brady
All right.
Brett
Boy, you could have 80 of them.
Toledo
You could have tons. Everybody represents something. So we all going to have our own Barbie. Like mine's follically challenged huge broken nose Barbie. Yeah, that's dumb.
Brett
We got a guy that had to go into the hospital, get a little emergency surgery. He had a 7 inch sweet potato lodging his butt. It was up too deep. They had to go through his gut.
Toledo
I'll say is too deep. But if you had to go through the center, he pushed. How? That thing just kept climbing.
Brett
Yeah, it went up a foot or so.
Toledo
Man, that's weird. You put things in there and they don't come out. And it's the whole point of that spot, let everything out. But if you stuff things in there, it just goes, all right, we're in reverse and that's your fault, so live with it.
Brett
One of the statements that had to put out this happened in England. But doctors in the UK once had to warn people to ignore the old wives tale that shoving a frozen potato up your bum cures hemorrhoids.
Toledo
I've never heard that.
Brett
Files. They said piles.
Toledo
Yeah, I like them called hemorrhoids. I don't like piles.
Brett
One website falsely claimed insert a frozen potato in your ass. Yeah, frozen. This one says insert a frozen potato, slice in your anus and leave it inside for 30 seconds. Repeat the process for three to five days and what happens?
Toledo
Your hemorrhoids go away. So instead of buying Preparation H or something, you slice a thinly sliced potato and then use it like a tux pad.
Brett
Yep. And dose it.
Brady
You're not jamming a whole potato up here. All right.
Toledo
Yeah, okay.
Brady
That's what I thought. I was like, no, I'll take the hemorrhoids.
Brett
He took it to the next level which is 7 inch long sweet potato.
Toledo
He must have had terrible. And then when you're done with the yam, you're done with it. You got a delicious potato in it.
Brett
Come on.
Toledo
Stop it.
Brett
Got a 29 year old woman in Florida, Ariana Moss. She was arrested on a misdemeanor charge after she allegedly stole a co worker's 40 ounce Stanley Cup. Light blue Stanley cup. It was a $60 in value.
Toledo
What?
Brett
98.
Toledo
No way. Homeberg's morning sickness.
Brett
Ariana was caught on camera eyeing the cup, hiding it in her lunchbox and leaving with it. It was. She said it was an accident, but she knew it belonged to a 20 year old 22 year old co worker. She'd even talked about it before. Co worker said Ariana once pointed to the cup, said this cup would be great to hold my breast milk.
Toledo
Ew.
Brett
She sent. Since quit her job as a supervisor, it's unclear if the Stanley cup was returned and if the co worker is willing to drink from it again.
Toledo
Never.
Brett
This picture of Ariana.
Toledo
Oh, she's pretty good. She was shooting breast milk at people.
Brett
Well, she was talking about she got issues.
Toledo
She never actually did it.
Brett
No. Okay, well, she took that one home. Yeah.
Toledo
You can't be a supervisor anymore if you think that.
Brett
Well, she decided, you know, time to change jobs up. It's a little uncomfortable in the workplace.
Toledo
Somebody said, did your mom Toledo give you a Ken doll? And say he's a bastard too. Bastard Ken would be awesome. Like just his head's down a little bit.
Rachel
No, that one never happened.
Toledo
You just. You never have a doll.
Brett
Should have.
Rachel
Yeah. Texters are also saying, hey guys, don't forget the best chapel ganger.
Toledo
Oh yeah, that Korean Envy Park. Yeah, that's pretty. Now again, let's go side by side with Brady in in B. I think we did that.
Brett
She's my chapel ganger.
Toledo
You think you're better looking than her?
Brett
Oh yeah.
Toledo
Is it cuz she's Asian?
Brett
Yep.
Toledo
There it is. That's what I like to hear. So essentially by that logic, there isn't one Asian better looking than you. The planet. Yes, I agree. You're better looking than 3 billion people. That's a good run.
Rachel
Own it.
Toledo
How do you. Where do you think you stand in that? I wonder where I would stand of the 7 billion people. Rank yourself.
Brett
Upper half.
Toledo
You think he's upper half? Yeah. I mean you've been to Thailand.
Rachel
Yeah.
Brett
Mid range.
Rachel
Cambodia, where there doesn't seem to be a lot of active dentists.
Toledo
I can be honest. I think I'm actually. All of us. I'm going to put us all there. Brett's probably in the upper 70%. He's a handsome man. Toledo's closing in on that Brady and I'm pulling up the rear. Still in the upper 60s, high 50s. We're in half of the world is horrendous looking. In America though, I think I'd be in the middle.
Brett
Mid range.
Toledo
I think in America.
Rachel
No.
Toledo
You don't think so?
Rachel
I think all four of us are upper half in America.
Toledo
And again, only like 3% of the population is good looking. Yeah, I know I'm not in that. Anyway, I've got one brand new video, Chapel ganger. In B Park.
Brett
This is a pretty good fitness challenge.
Toledo
Okay.
Brett
Between two women. Should be fun to do.
Toledo
Right? They're throwing a medicine ball over you.
Brett
Throw it over the wall, Do a push up, throw it back.
Toledo
Yeah. That's what's going on right now. One of them's gonna get smashed. It's getting. The medicine ball's getting heavier and the push ups are getting harder.
Brett
Who you going with?
Toledo
I'm going with the one in black.
Brady
She's gonna get hit.
Toledo
Yeah, I think so too. She's getting faced by a medicine ball.
Brett
She's out.
Toledo
That's a fun game.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
You do a squat and you push the ball over the hill or over the barrier. And then after the ball leaves your hands, you drop and do a push up. The girl in the black is crushing.
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
The other one's cuter if that's worth anything to her. But she takes it right in the face, so to speak.
Brady
That's a good one.
Toledo
So to speak. There it is. Oh, that's one of them 20 pound medicine balls, too. They're not messing around.
Rachel
Yeah, that's a big boy.
Toledo
I watched. There's a park on Indian School next to the Arizona Falls is just the canal, kind of.
Brett
It's beautiful.
Toledo
It's a nice place, But I ride my bike there sometimes. And there's a group of dudes that all look like James Harrison playing volleyball with medicine balls. It's the most amazing crap you've ever seen. Like, it makes you feel worthless as a human being. They're all huge and they've got like. Then they're throwing these medicine. These gigantic medicine balls back and forth. It's. And they're all oiled up. I think they're gay, but it's like they're going to. It's. There's no way I'd want to oil up and hang out with dudes if I looked like that. Be oiled up and looking for chicks. Unless I wanted to bang the fellas. But there's like 12 of them, and they are like, I'll oil up with you and we'll throw balls at each other's faces. And they do it. No women are watching either, which I found out.
Brady
I figured play volleyball with Goose and Maverick.
Toledo
Yeah, it's that. It's the playing with the boys scene in Top Gun where they're all oiled up and yolks version. They're huge, though. It's kind of fun to watch. All right, Brett, what do you got?
Brady
I'm light today, but we'll Just get through a few of these. All right. Some hockey for you. Dude hit him so hard he took out the backup goalie.
Toledo
What? Oh, he hits it. Oh, my God, it's Russia. He checks a dude into the bench and the guy lands on the goalie for the other team who's just sitting on the bench and kills. And the guy gets right back up and climbs back out onto the ice. That's awesome. That's a great hit.
Brady
Here's some. I'll just let you watch it.
Toledo
Some metal core.
Brady
Metal core music for you.
Toledo
Okay. There's kids sitting on a pier leaping into the. Oh. And he. That's his head hitting the bar on the pier. And a guy decided to start a song with it.
Brett
Wow.
Toledo
That's awesome. Wow. He tries to do a little hop off the pier into the ocean and hits his head.
Brady
Here's one of those construction videos that we obviously.
Toledo
Oh, boy. It's a safety video for. Okay, we've got a backhoe of some sort. Oh, my God. They're swinging around.
Brady
But wait, let's.
Brett
That just mirrors him. Oh, yeah, that's severed.
Toledo
It cuts a guy in half.
Brett
As and a half.
Toledo
Yeah. It turns the. I don't know what kind of machine that was, but it's got a 360 degrees cabin. And now there's a dude stuck under it. Oh, wow.
Brady
For no reason whatsoever. How about sex?
Brett
Okay.
Toledo
Little people getting it done. The girl is sucking her finger while. Oh, that is a little fella. Wow. That's a real woman. And what is that? I don't know. It's a gremlin. That's Marvin the Martian life foot and a half tall. That was wild. It's Coha again. I don't know what she's saying, but you Spanish people are probably enjoying the hell out of that. He's so little. Once it reveals him. Oh, we've got to put this on the Internet. This needs to. He is the size of one of her butt cheeks. Yeah. Poppy is the thing with them. And you don't know what's behind her until now. It is Coha.
Brett
That is Joy Cohaagen.
Toledo
Give him the air. Cohaagen. What are you doing? It's that thing from Tel recall growing out of that guy. It's him. I don't know what she's saying. I'm sorry. I apologize to everybody. I don't know what that is. It can't be good.
Brady
That's all we got today.
Toledo
He is literally a foot and a half tall. He's an Oompa Loompa. Only little.
Brady
Yeah.
Toledo
And she's a full size woman. And he's getting her from behind on a little footstool. Show me that again. I've never seen anything like this. Midget sex is one thing. This is like Guinness Book stuff. This dude is tiny. Look at his little feet.
Brett
Oh, yeah.
Toledo
These little socks.
Brady
Oh, I missed that.
Toledo
Yeah. To go back and look at his little socks in the beginning. They're there, right there. Look at down there, that little tiny stuff. He kept his socks on. That's adorable. Little hands on her butt. He's adorable. I want one. I want one of those.
Brady
There he goes. I like when he wipes his brow.
Toledo
Yeah. Oh, he wipes the sweat off. He's working, so he's going up.
Brett
No hands.
Toledo
Well, he's like a hummingbird. That. That heart has to be going crazy now, wiping that brow. Yeah. Poppy's getting it done. He's the size of my dick, but still getting it done with a lady. Good for you. Excellent work.
Brett
Wow.
Toledo
That's the weirdest one I've seen in a while, and I really liked it. We can't put that up on the Internet.
Brady
No.
Brett
Are you sure?
Toledo
What about just a picture of him?
Rachel
Maybe if it's cropped the right way.
Toledo
You could do it. Do you think in his head.
Brett
I'd like to ask Elon Musk about this stuff.
Toledo
Is this gonna go away?
Brett
Yeah.
Toledo
No. But you'll have access to all of it.
Brett
You can have Poppy here. Yeah.
Toledo
If you want to have a. And for fun, I might do that. Like, I would like a One Foot. Bring Poppy in to peg me. Who cares? Like I don't have anything to worry about anymore when AI takes over everything. Bring over that one foot, man. I want to watch that. All right, get in there. Do you think deep down he knows she's faking? Or does he really think he's hammering that he knows.
Brett
He don't care.
Toledo
Ideal smile. Puppies. Like, come on.
Brett
He's performing for the camera. They both are. Yeah. They're professionals.
Toledo
Yeah. We didn't see if he had a normal wang or not. Kyle. Kyle's asking. We didn't see that. But her reaction leads me to believe that there's some type of.
Brett
Some feelings.
Toledo
It's gotta be like a baby carrot. Anyway, that's the world we live in for another eight years, according to Elon. And then we can just start doing it ourselves. An abundance of everything that's included. Brady. That's what Elon's calling for. There you go, everybody. There goes your Brady report. It's out of control now. 98 KD.
