Major Discussion Points & Insights

1. John’s “Sick Day” Guilt & Barrett Jackson Car Auction

Timestamps: 01:23 – 11:00

• Guilty Conscience: John recounts calling out sick from work—using a telehealth service, getting prednisone, and recovering—but feeling intense guilt when he rallied enough to join friends at Barrett Jackson later that day.
  • Quote: "I left the house feeling like I was under surveillance, like I was just getting big trouble... wait a minute, I’m an adult now." (03:15, John)
• Childhood Parallels: The guys reminisce about being kids and the unwritten rule that if you’re too sick for school, you’re too sick for fun or outings.
• Public Exposure Fear: John jokes about the anxiety of being “caught” out while supposedly sick—a reflex from his school days, reinforced by embarrassing past incidents in the radio industry of people getting busted (some literally) in public while skipping work.
  • Quote: "If you're up to no good... you're at a massage parlor getting hand jobs and the news comes by and captures you... That was one of the greatest moments in the history of radio." (04:16, John)

2. Tales from Barrett Jackson

Timestamps: 09:38 – 16:57

• Car Observations: The hosts marvel at high- and low-priced vehicles, such as a 1969 Bronco that sold for surprisingly little and a 1988 Excalibur-style limo. They pitch in imaginary group funds to buy a ridiculous limo, riffing on potential joint ownership.
• Car Show Sociology: They laugh at the spectacle—Barrett Jackson as a “see and be seen” event—drawing both true car lovers and lots of casual attendees.
  • Quote: "Barrett Jackson is now... like a CNB scene. Not everybody there’s a car person." (13:55, John)
• Gender & Demographics: The crew comments on the overwhelmingly male crowd and theorizes how the event turns into a prime territory for “trophy wife” fishing when the real money shows up later in the week.

3. TV Show Pitch: “Undercover Gold Digger”

Timestamps: 17:22 – 21:18

• Concept: Inspired by his Barrett Jackson experience, John proposes a reality show: A group of influencer women are told one of the random workers they meet during errands is a secret billionaire. The aim is to observe whether knowing a billionaire is in their midst changes how they treat everyone—including "ordinary" guys.
  • Quote: "To prove that men are the more emotional and more romantic gender... Just to show them how different they are when money’s involved." (17:22, John)
• Social Experiment Angle: The guys riff on how attitudes and kindness shift for "potential billionaires" vs. regular Joes.
  • Quote: “Kind of undercover gold digger. It would be awesome.” (20:21, John)

4. The Most Common Words in Music Genres

Timestamps: 21:21 – 25:48

• Country Music: Brady shares a list of the most-used words in country music. Surprisingly, “beer” isn’t on it—words like truck, whiskey, love, baby, heart, mama, and home dominate.
• Rock & Subgenres: Using AI-generated lists, they find that modern rock’s most common words are bleak: love, hate, feel, pain, alone, inside, broken, fear, and cry. Subgenres like grunge, nu-metal, pop punk, and emo are even more emotionally loaded, e.g., "pain, alone, feel, nothing."
  • Quote: “Everything’s horrible... Man, this is depressing. Will somebody write a rock song to his girlfriend for Christ’s sake?” (25:10, John)
• Rap: The word “yeah” tops the list in 90s-and-later rap, followed by money-related terms and, less officially, the N-word—frequently used in lyrics.
  • Quote: “Yeah is the most common word used... Money, cash, stacks, dollars, rich, paid, street, power.” (26:54, John & Brady)
  • Quote: “I know which one is the most common and we’re not saying it, but I know which one it is and it is still the most common.” (26:34, John)

5. The “Vabbing” Trend – A Disgusting Dating Hack

Timestamps: 29:39 – 37:19

• Definition: Relaying news stories, John introduces “vabbing”—women applying their vaginal fluids to pulse points to attract men, as a pheromonal fragrance hack.
  • Quote: "For lack of a better way to describe it... she sneezes into her underpants. She takes that and dabs it on her wrists and neck." (31:44, John)
  • Quote: "It's essentially the act of taking vaginal discharge and dabbing it in certain areas... where you would normally put perfume." (32:00, John, reading an article)
• Panel Reactions: The guys are repulsed, riffing on potential side effects, the likelihood of attracting cats over men, and wondering about the desperation required to try “vabbing."
  • Quote: "You smell like a can of Starkist." (32:56, Brady)
  • Quote: "If you're a pig and you're covered in your own juice, you weren't doing too well in the first place." (35:38, John)
• Health Risks: They note a health expert’s warnings about risk of infection, bacteria, and fungus.
• Skepticism: They consistently argue that women don’t need to go to such extremes, pointing out most men are easy to attract without elaborate tactics.

[Brett]

Hello there.

[John Holmberg]

Welcome to Friday Skip. Today it is 5:45. My name's John. There's Brady, there's Brett, there's big Dick Toledo. This the morning sickness. And yeah, living up to the name yesterday. Woke up with a closed throat but well, this is it. I got stung by a bee in my sleep or something. I can't breathe, I can't talk. Anything terrible. But thank God for call on doc.com as a man, maybe the best thing I've ever seen in my life. Woke up 4 o' clock yesterday. I was like man, it's bad. Called the boys so I'm not gonna make it in there. I just. This is. I need a. I don't want to hand this over. It felt like strep throat. Like I don't want to give this to everybody just in case. I don't know where it came from. It was out of the blue and then got a call on doc.com just go through the symptoms of what you got 35 bucks next thing you know, Walgreens has the prescription waiting on me. We're all ready to go. I'm done. Got the prednisone. Got all better. Feel much better. You know what I still live with, though, because by the time I got the prescription and stuff and started to feel pretty good, I was supposed to go to Barrett Jackson yesterday and I. And I, you know, skipped school, so I didn't feel well. I didn't go to work about 11 o'. Clock. I'm starting to feel better. Noon, I'm feeling really good. The boys wanted to go about two.

[Brett]

And got your prices right in.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Oh, hell yeah. Oh, I watched a Super Password. I watched the. Oh, I watched Buzzer Network. I was watching old games because when I'm sick on the couch, game shows are the thing so much. Yeah, Super Password and concentration. The old Alex Trebek. Anyway, they're, you know, like, all right, screw it, I'll get up and move. And I had so much guilt, like from when you remember when you were a little kid and you'd miss school and then you had something to do and you're not supposed to leave that when you're a kid and you miss school. My dad would be like, you can't go to school. You can't do anything.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

And it was like that. If you miss work, you just got to sit in your stew. And so I left the house feeling like I was under surveillance, like I was just getting big trouble for. Somebody sees me. Like, wait a minute, I'm an adult now. I don't have to worry about that. Like, I. But I still all day afraid Tripp.

[Brady]

Was going to show up at Bear.

[John Holmberg]

Jack, what are you doing here, Dude? Yeah, why are you. How come you weren't? And now you're. Does this have anything to do with Larry and I? I. Yeah, a guy came up to me. I was by the bathroom and he's like, hey, Homeberg, nice job. I'm like, good. I'm like, God, I hope he didn't listen. I didn't know. Maybe got fooled by the best stuff. I lived with that weird weight, you know, I'm not 11. I can't, like, I can't have a teacher see me. They. And by the way, the teacher never cared when you were a kid, if they. They don't, nobody cares. What was that into you? But I felt horrible because you have.

[Brett]

Those situations where a person is not sick and they call off and then there they are in the front page of the newspaper or seen on tv.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, well, if you're doing something terrible.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

You know, like you're at a massage parlor getting hand jobs and stuff, and the news comes by and captures you as you're getting escorted out by the police, which has happened to radio professionals in this town. One of my. Oh, yeah, one of the.

[Brady]

Got that one.

[John Holmberg]

Greatest moments in the history of radio.

[Brady]

Oh, do tell.

[John Holmberg]

In Phoenix, we've had a few good ones. Bonaduce getting. I remember that prostitutes and Carla Fox running that lawyer over and keeping a finger in her front of her grill and trying to get home and with.

[Brett]

The car double, you know, because driving with a guy that owned a car dealer.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's true. I forgot about that.

[Brett]

He was driving.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. And then the one guy that worked that was getting underage broads and stuff. And there was a few great. We had a few great ones. There's nothing better than. Because it wasn't. It was an exec. It was a Bob. Oh, and this. I'm not going to use his name because it's not right. And he got away with it. But he was missing some work here and there.

[Brady]

Not in this company, though. Not at Kitty.

[Brett]

He wasn't even missing work.

[John Holmberg]

Well, he was missing work because he was in his work clothes.

[Brett]

It was lunch.

[John Holmberg]

He wasn't at work. And where he was was like an hour from work. That's it. Was that those university rubbing tugs, you know. You know, on University Road, over by the airport. By the airport. Little Miss Barbecues there. And then across the streets, that windowless box. And like Asian girls just walk in like little zombies. And so evidently, right at the time, this dude was getting loads of rubbing tugs. He's. Oh, the best. And we all kind of. He was okay. He had a hot head. He was a tempered guy. I remember that. Like, he was really nice. And then golfer. He was a great golfer. And he'd explode on people. So Sheriff Joe does a sting on rubbing tugs. And he didn't know. And it was like a year long. Like, find out which ones are doing it. And the day. One of the days he go. One of. Now he says it's the only time, but one of the days he goes there, sting happens and they bring the news. So as the dude's being escorted out in cuffs, he's holding his hands over his face.

[Brett]

Most of the people are covering themselves.

[John Holmberg]

But he's got a monogrammed collar, shirt cuff, and it had his initials and his face. Like, you can tell, and his initials are there.

[Brett]

And if you're in the radio industry.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, you knew him?

[Brett]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Everybody's. I know that guy. It was awesome. And so we all, you know, front page of the Arizona Republic the next day back when people got papers and on the news that his wife was my client. Yeah. And Brad. Yeah. Brady had to answer that and. And bought his story that it was like his friends drug him over there. Very first time ever. He didn't know what to do and he's getting tugged. Didn't know cops busted in while he. Some Asian girl was jumping up and down on a stuff with her with her hands. Anyway, I wasn't doing that, man. I was at Barrett Jackson. Mark gave me a hand job. But that was later. I mean that was totally different. But no. Yeah. So that's how you feel. But that's if you're up to no good. I mean I just missed the day, felt better and went about my business. You can get better, but I still have that guilt of didn't go well. I had my dad yelling he got.

[Brett]

Medicated, you know, which makes me feel a little bit better.

[John Holmberg]

My dad would. Would have yelled at me if you missed work. Yeah. You don't go anywhere like you're so.

[Brett]

Stockers probably said well if you're gonna do, you know.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Z pack and yeah knocked some other stuff.

[Brett]

You should probably lay low for the day.

[John Holmberg]

Here's the other thing. The more I sat around, the worse I felt. So I felt like I just got to get this thing going. I was moving around, jumping rope, trying to do. I could not do it. I was dragging ass. And then about 8 o' clock hit last night I was done. And that's what Jeremy just text in and said. We all know what it was. John. You got your herpes. You talked about that the day before. Yeah, Sophie Cunningham gave me herpes flare my throat. Maybe it was psychosomatic that when I read that Sophie talked about our herpes. I haven't been diagnosed yet, but I mean if she's got him, I've got them. I don't want to go into detail, but it's just the way it is. And yeah, so my throat was like, oh, Sophie's got herpes. We have herpes. I'm not saying I nailed her.

[Brady]

I'm just saying that you're not saying you didn't though.

[John Holmberg]

Okay. That was you talking. I'm not gonna fight with you. No, I'm just saying. I'm not saying her herpes jumped off of the table. I'm just saying I have from no one else. Sophie's herpes and when she went on her podcast and said, I'm like. And then, ironically, next day, I miss work. I mean, come on. I mean, you guys can put the one plus one is Sophie's herpes. I mean, that's a thing. But I. Yeah. But I felt good. So the people that said hello to me, hi. Yes, I know. But it was good because none of them said, well, we were at work this morning because I think they were all fired up about missing work and going to Barrett Jackson on a Thursday, too. Which, by the way, is pretty awesome. It is. It is such a massive footprint, and I mean massive, that we. 12,000 steps yesterday. It was a lot of walking. And we. I mean, it was just there. We. We covered some ground. And my buddy Dr. Jeff is. He's going back. He's got his eyes on something. They had a 69 Bronco roll past on the stage, and I'm like, oh, these things are. They got a few of them. It went for nothing. I should have got it. And those moments when you're like, that we could have got that. Like, that was. Those things are worth twice as much as what. And it was all done up.

[Brett]

But nothing to him is 92 grand.

[John Holmberg]

Well, that was what. For that car. Those things. The next one went up for 165. Like.

[Brett]

Yeah. Which I would have thought, like, you're saying.

[John Holmberg]

I didn't even pay attention to it. Didn't pay attention. Rolled off at 87 and went up to like, 90 something. I'm like, what the. And we were looking. Is there something Wrong with the 69? Is there something wrong with it?

[Brett]

What's kind of cool is. And asking the guys that. That work there.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[Brett]

That, you know, go every year. It. There's a certain. You know, there's always certain brands or models of cars that all sudden, this is the hot one. Like, yeah, it was like 90s SUVs last year. And then going through outrageous prices and then other cars that you think would be higher. Like, some of the muscle cars were going really cheap.

[John Holmberg]

But me and the boys were. We looked at a. It sold for $13,000. We didn't see it go through the auction. It was a 1988. One of those Excalibur limousines. It looks like.

[Brett]

Oh, yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, great shape smelled when you open the doors. It smelled like Reagan should just his ghost. Should it smell like cigarettes in the 80s. Like, I think, you know, Family Ties plays non stop on the loop inside of there. It's so 80s. Cosby sweaters in the trunk. Nice and I said, and we found it after, and it's sold sticker in 13. And I'm like, I'm standing next to this thing till we find the guy who bought it. And the four of us, me, Brink, Anthony and Mark, we're going to kick in four grand apiece. 16,000 total. Make this guy three grand right off the bat. So give us this thing, chauffeur each other around, maybe even in blackface. I don't know. It would have been fun because it looked like that kind of car. And then you drive the other. They drive the other three to wherever it is. Like, rah rah room. They all get out, go to boom boom. Yeah, boom boom room after, drive it. And then the next night we go somewhere. Brink drives the other three guys. Everybody drives one. And then we jump it. We take it and build a ramp. And we leap this stupid thing through the. Get our use out. Because it was just such a ridiculously stupid cartoon car. This gargantuan. I'm like, 13 grand for 1988 limousine with that. I don't even know what those are called. That front end with the circle light, the big. It looked like a. Like Cruella deville should be driving. And it's like a Disney limo.

[Brady]

I know what you're talking about.

[John Holmberg]

I think.

[Brady]

Let me pull it up.

[John Holmberg]

I always called them Excaliburs because when I was a kid, my Matchbox car was an Excalibur.

[Brett]

And it looked like it was a brand, wasn't it?

[John Holmberg]

It could be. I have no idea. It was the neatest thing I've seen. And when I saw it, it only sold for 13 grand. I'm like, we entered that in a smash up derby. And I'd have driven that to work every day. And I said, we'll do it like the Stanley Cup. Each of us gets it for a couple days a week. The other guy got. And then we just dick around. And Anthony was so against it. It was painful, but it was such a cool ride. It was nuts. Like a power wagon next to it. Sold for like 19. I'm like, that's when you go through the tent.

[Brett]

Some of those things are amazing. Like what?

[John Holmberg]

That went for 13 grand. All birds, morning sickness. Disgusting. They smell, they're sticky. They say things that are horrib.

Homeburg's morning sickness. So it was pretty neat. It's a lot. And the fascination with it is amazing. And it kind of dawned on me that Barrett Jackson is now the. It has been for a while. But it's like a CNB scene. Not everybody. There's a car person. But it's just such a ticket to go. Oh, I was there. Like, there's a ton of people just walking around going, oh, yeah, that's all. What's a big block? And like, no, no, I don't know. What I'm talking about is a big block. Coyot. What? I'm not learning anything. Yes, that's exactly it, Brett.

[Brady]

All right.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, could you imagine? What's that called?

[Brady]

It's a Tiffany.

[John Holmberg]

A Tiffany.

[Brett]

Tiffany. All right.

[John Holmberg]

It was cream. It was hideous pipes. It had it all. That's what I said. If you were there, we'd have done it.

[Brady]

Yeah. Hey.

[John Holmberg]

Three or four of us were all in on finding the guy and just offered. I'd have gone as high as five each. 20 grand.

[Brady]

So Brink was out on it.

[John Holmberg]

Brink was totally in. Brink was when it was out, Anthony. Oh, yeah. We were all in on that.

[Brady]

Should have threw in an extra G just to cover his.

[John Holmberg]

I know. Look. Toledo even raised his arm. Which lends me to believe it is a bad purchase, but so cool. But I didn't. They fired that thing off like first. That was like one of the first looks. Let's get this.

[Brady]

Nobody wants.

[John Holmberg]

Nobody did. Thirteen grand. How much is that one? Is that for sale?

[Brady]

No, it's just a picture of one.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, it looks like.

[Brett]

Find you Arthur Lincoln town car.

[John Holmberg]

Modified like Dudley Moore. Should get out of that stumble out. Oh, it's such a. It was such a great car.

[Brett]

But remember in the like in the 70s and stuff, you could get the customization of the cars. They'd put the wheel.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, that was on the outside. I don't know what that is.

[Brady]

Yeah. I don't even know.

[John Holmberg]

Is there a wheel in there? In that? Some wood.

[Brett]

But then they would just make it. There was not a wheel.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, the spokes. Like there was a wheel in it.

[Brady]

I don't know what was it.

[John Holmberg]

It's neat, though. But Barrett Jackson is the thing that, you know, people go because they think they should.

[Brady]

It's the non limo version.

[John Holmberg]

Man. I'd get that thing too. How much is that?

[Brady]

It's sold.

[John Holmberg]

All right. An 86 Tiffany coupe. I don't know what the hell those pipes are on the side. But I think they're cool.

[Brett]

That's all glued.

[John Holmberg]

Look at the horns up front. Oh, I'd be blasting those non pimping.

[Brady]

Through maryvale and that thing, man. You would.

[John Holmberg]

If I went to the blade would start handing me money. But you better have my money. Oh, they're so cool. Anyway. But yeah, everybody that was there was like a looky Lou. And then I was up on the stage. Which is cool. You can go up there and that's kind of neat. That was a fun thing. And wandered around out there and yeah. He just covered so much ground. We had a great time. But it was just. I mean, today is going to be nuts. It's all weak. And it cannot be that this city has that many car people who know what they're doing. A good. I would imagine 50% are just people who are like, what is this? It's. It's the phoenix open. There aren't that many people interested in golf.

[Brett]

It's the phoenix open. But the light difference is car dealer, trophy wives.

[John Holmberg]

Some of that. It was almost like it was 90 men. It was almost all guys. I mean, it's a lot.

[Brett]

That's why it would stick out. The one. The girls that are leopard print flashy outfits.

[John Holmberg]

I think that's this weekend. The real money rolls in today and tomorrow because that's when they're starting to throw. Some big boys are coming out.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

So that's when the girls think billionaire husband time and they start fishing. Yeah. I had a great idea for a TV show walking around there, though. Think of this. To prove that men are the more emotional and more romantic gender. You tell a group of 10 hotels influencer women that throughout the day the TV producers are going to take them places. And at one of those places, there will be a billionaire who wants to date them and has requested through the Internet, through their service that you bring her to me. But you don't know who he is. And you'd go to Burger King and you go to, you know, Walgreens and you go to Jiffy Lube and Discount Tire. You take her some places to run some errands as a personal assistant for the guy who's putting it all together. And one of the people serving her is a billionaire and she knows it. But not all of them are just to see how nice she is to Dude. She would have never been nice to. Like, the dude at Discount Tire doesn't know why she's there. And she's going to cozy up to him like, hi. You know, and he'd be like, what's going on?

[Brett]

But then if she knew one of them was a guy, then she's nice to everyone.

[John Holmberg]

Right? She's. Well, that's the point, though. But the dudes at Discount Tire would be like, normally, this girl is not giving me any attention. What is going on? And just to see. Just to show them how different they are when money's involved. That dude at Discount Tire could be the match in her life. But without a billion dollars, she's never gonna be interested. But a man would. A man would find a girl at the Burger King and think, my God, she's beautiful. No matter what he's got. He'd be like, you know, that's the whole Cinderella thing. Take some poor bitch who used to be a maid for it didn't matter to him what she did. It does, though. It would be a real social experiment to have that. But you just show how different she would act knowing that someone out there's a bit. But she's talking to just Joe Schmo.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

You know, minimum wage. She has no idea.

[Brett]

Yeah, that's the way you're helping the guy. You're helping the billionaire out. Of course.

[John Holmberg]

Yep. She has no idea. But she knows she better be putting it on. Because at any time now, one of these weird minimum wage dudes could be a billionaire. Whereas in a normal day she has to go run these errands. She's not. She's not trying to win one over. That's proof. Right? And. And we're all sitting there like, my buddy brings. Like, that's a great idea. It would be a great show especially to watch them fawn all over themselves over a dude who is not the guy. He's Just like, wow, this is. And I've never been. And then you interview him. It's like. Never had a woman that beautiful even spend two seconds with me or talk to. I don't know what's going on.

[Brett]

What are you doing when you get off work?

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. And you just tell the dude at the tire shop, hey, we're doing a thing about. We're calling it blue collar Joe. And we want you to be part of this and just your regular day. And he doesn't know that she's part of it. She comes. He's like, man, I've never had a daylight.

[Brett]

It's like undercover boss sort of.

[John Holmberg]

Kind of undercover gold digger. It would be awesome. And then one of them is. And then the billionaire can decide based on how she treated everybody else, like she's just in it for the money and make a few of the guys unattractive to see if she'd ever say, he might have a billion dollars. But I'm not attracted to him because I don't think that matters. I might. I might make some calls today or some.

[Brady]

The next coach of the cardinals. You know, things like that.

[John Holmberg]

It would be that. Yeah. But it would be like this. Just a dude who's like. And then you find out it's the. Like a dude with like a half an arm. You know? And she's got to be extra nice to him. It's like she didn't care that he had half an arm. Like, she's after the money and the money only. It would be a good show. It'd be a great show. Anyway. Enjoy. Barrett Jackson, bj. Parking signs are up. And they're very funny. Every year they have hats there that say B. Jack. It's too close to. And there's no K. It's jac.

[Brady]

You didn't buy one.

[John Holmberg]

Your hat looks like it says E Jack on it.

[Brady]

Should have bought one.

[John Holmberg]

I almost did, but I was like, that's dumb. B Jack hats. I don't want that. I'm fascinated by this. Brady handed me a thing that said the most common words used in country music. Not everybody would know. Truck trucks in there. And it is whiskey, beer. Beer's not on the list, which is surprising. But whiskey more. No, no. They go straight to the whiskey. Love, baby girl heart. Truck, home, night mama. Whiskey and drink. Then we asked each other the question. Wonder what it is for. For like, rock and not going back to classic rock. Like, you know, once rock was nothing more general. Yeah. Just now rock music's basically. There's no Love songs. It's all screaming at your dad.

[Brady]

It's like 90s forward.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, 90s grunge up. Yeah.

[Brady]

Okay.

[John Holmberg]

I don't think there's a lot of love and death is one of the words.

[Brady]

Black.

[John Holmberg]

Baby'S probably still in there. Yeah. Oh, yes. Yeah. I mean, I'm looking at the songs that are coming up, like, the F word. Maybe.

[Brett]

I don't know about. Well, maybe no, because you think about the. How much dumping there's on. In our. On the songs that we play. Well, it would be the top 10.

[Brady]

But you got to think about songs that we get that are, like. We're not beeping them. They're radio edits, so they're already saying a different way.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, I'm looking at all this, like, end. Like, everything in rock music's about, you know, like, the ending. Death, heart, whole heart, maybe. Because you could say it, but we're not. Ours isn't. Ours isn't baby and love and all that anymore? Not even close, man. It's good. Well, because back in the 80s, that's all it was. I'm thinking baby love.

[Brady]

You know, every Poison concert, all the.

[John Holmberg]

80S ballads that came up songs, everything everybody had baby in a song. So baby and girl. We don't have girl. And these dudes don't sing to women anymore. It's all about cold being angry. Cold is a good one. Cold's up there. And then, like, the basic rhymy rhymes, which is fly and. Yeah, I'm trying to. Like, weaponry would be on the list. I'm trying to see some of the songs we got coming up. Like, Monkey Wrench. The Foo Fighters would be a. It's a great song, but I don't think it's about. Not about women. It's about actually stupefy. I don't know. I think it would be about life, like, living death. Die.

[Brett]

Wonder if AI was crazy if you'd ask AI.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, ask AI and see what. What. What are the most common words used in modern rock songs?

[Brady]

All right.

[John Holmberg]

Because, you know, it makes sense that country music, that's pretty easy to guess. You know, Surprise Dog wasn't on the list, but whiskey and truck, that would have been my first guess. Truck. Because they love singing about their trucks.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

And then Mama. Mama would have been on there. Baby love. I know in Mexican music, the word corazon is in every song. It's like, mandatory. Yeah. I don't know. Like, rock music. I think Brady's right. I think death has to be in there or dying. References to Dying.

[Brady]

Okay, I just typed in most common words using 90s and up rock music.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Brady]

So you know, we'll cut out the poisons and Jovi's. That's the usual suspects. Most common words. Love, hate, feel, feeling, heart, pain, alone, inside, broken, fear and cry.

[John Holmberg]

Everything's horrible.

[Brady]

Pain, struggle and rebellion away. Run, fall, fight, die, free, lost, save, change.

[John Holmberg]

Wow.

[Brady]

Dark abstract imagery would be world, nothing, everything Black, cold, fire and light.

[John Holmberg]

Man, this is depressing. Will somebody write a rock song to his girlfriend, for Christ's sake?

[Brady]

Oh, and then here we go.

[John Holmberg]

We even.

[Brady]

Wow, this is great. Even got genre specifics. Grunge was pain, alone, feel inside and nothing.

[John Holmberg]

Jesus.

[Brady]

New metal would have been like Lincoln Parkhorn. Hate, pain, broken inside. Pop punk like green day, blink 182 tonight, run again forever. Emo would have been heart, cry alone, save pussies. Alt rock would have been cry, Chili Peppers like Foo Fighters type music. Love, life away and time.

[John Holmberg]

What a bunch of British smokes throwing in the word cry. Homebird's morning sickness. Disgusting. They smell, they're sticky. They say things that are horrible. Holmberg's morning sickness. Andrew Krueger says. Or Krieger says. Hey, make Brett's algorithm fun. Ask it what the most common words in rap are. Oh, you're gonna have a. You're gonna get one. Okay. It's gonna tell you sure. It's gonna have it in there. It's gonna be in there. And I don't know if ya is a word, but that's in them. We're gonna run a. Yeah, yeah.

[Brett]

In the 90s. Escalade.

[Brady]

I wrote most common words in 90s.

[John Holmberg]

I know which one is the most common and we're not saying it, but I know which one it is and it is still the most common.

[Brady]

Let's see here. Yeah. Is the most common word used.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Brady]

Close runner ups are. Uh huh.

[John Holmberg]

Those aren't words. Hey, that's Yo. Yeah.

[Brady]

Let's see here.

[John Holmberg]

Where is it?

[Brady]

Money, status, money, cash stacks, dollars, rich paid, street power.

[John Holmberg]

There it is.

[Brady]

N word.

[John Holmberg]

There it is.

[Brady]

Even gang boss and real.

[John Holmberg]

Did AI write it or did it?

[Brady]

It's the. It ends with an A. But it wrote it. It wrote it with an AI.

[John Holmberg]

You're gonna lose your job that you're trying to take from us. Huh. What an interesting thing.

[Brady]

Era flavor. Gangster rap is money, ride, hood, gun, life.

[John Holmberg]

Here comes.

[Brady]

No, no, no. It's not in any of these.

[John Holmberg]

Actually that AI skipped it.

[Brady]

I think so.

[John Holmberg]

No cuss words. And this is crazy isn't on the wraps. How about that?

[Brady]

Who knew why? Yeah. Wins. Works as rhythm glue. Fills space between bars. Signals confidence and universal across regions and eras.

[John Holmberg]

Wow.

[Brady]

This is crazy. Okay, there was only one mention of the N word in there.

[John Holmberg]

I'm surprised. Shocking. Shocking, because I know that that AI just kind of go merit. We're ignoring it. So you know what I just found out? AI is white. AI is white and scared to death to say it.

[Brett]

Filter.

[John Holmberg]

Because if AI was black, it would have been in there.

[Brady]

What are you looking at?

[John Holmberg]

I can say it. AI's like, I don't know about this. AI is white.

[Brett]

Maybe put the change and say hit songs.

[Brady]

Okay.

[Brett]

Then you get.

[John Holmberg]

I might ask, when we're off the air, I might ask my AI that I argue with sometimes just for fun, if he'll just say that word. And. Oh, I don't like saying that word. I have him as an Englishman. I don't like saying that word. It's. It's again, I'm like, so you're white then. So I'm gonna find out if AI is white because if he doesn't say it, I'm gonna make my AI uncomfortable. I like doing that. Yeah. So, yeah, cold and inside. I guess inside is an all rock song, so that's a weird. That's a cool little study there.

[Brady]

I said, how many songs had the nword in 90s and up rap music?

[John Holmberg]

How many?

[Brady]

Yeah, it doesn't give me an exact number yet, but many songs feature the word multiple times, including Kanye West's all day uses the NW 45 times in one song.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, my God. Is that the record?

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know.

[Brady]

I'm looking, man. This is crazy.

[John Holmberg]

I think my grandpa held the record prior to that, but he would make songs up with it. So did Kanye, though.

[Brady]

That's true.

[Brett]

Close to a minute of the song.

[John Holmberg]

45 said it over. Did you just time it in your head?

[Brett]

I was thinking, that's one second.

[John Holmberg]

Basically how long it takes me.

[Brady]

Ninja fingers and play this song. Ready?

[John Holmberg]

Go. All right, start the clock. Okay, we're at 0.4 seconds and 45 times. My God, Two minutes. I don't know what that is. And I saw this as well. This is gross. And there's a. They say this is going to be a trend for women who can't get men. It's called fabbing. Have you heard of fabbing?

[Brett]

No. I got two other trends today, too. That was not one.

[John Holmberg]

So they're not fabbing. So ladies. Ladies who are, like, trying to find a guy and they're like, I don't know what's going on. Some woman who's into. Yeah. Try to guess what vabbing is. It says they're trying to say that maybe it's, you know, they're. They're not. They're not putting out the right chemical or pheromone sort of so vabbing.

[Brett]

Scent, vibe. I don't know.

[John Holmberg]

Any guess. Brett got a guess on what women are doing vabbing?

[Brady]

No, because I can't say it on the air.

[John Holmberg]

I think you can.

[Brady]

Yeah, probably not.

[John Holmberg]

What were you. What? I mean, give me a.

[Brady]

Has something to do with the lower regions.

[John Holmberg]

The clam. It's the medical term you're looking for. Yes.

[Brady]

It's not what I was going to.

[John Holmberg]

Say, but you know the vagina first science. Yes, yes. And.

[Brett]

Okay, go ahead.

[Brady]

I'm just saying, like trying to tighten it up.

[John Holmberg]

Okay. Tightening.

[Brett]

Beautifying it.

[John Holmberg]

Beautifying the vagina.

[Brady]

Yeah, I would say that too. Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Make it tighter.

[Brady]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Incorrect. Although vocal. Whoa, you're singing. Teach it to sing. No, not cohaging down there. I'll tell you right now, if that thing starts singing or whistle, I'm taking you out like that frog on the wb. Yeah.

[Brady]

I'm taking the star search. Let's do this.

[John Holmberg]

Watch this, everybody. I could pull her pants down.

[Brett]

For.

[John Holmberg]

Lack of a better way to describe it. And again, I'm not a doctor, but I will be as classy as I can win. Her sneezes into her underpants. She takes that and dabs it on her wrists and neck.

[Brady]

I'll just kill yourself.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. So she thinks that the scent. I'll read it. As it says in a news article, it's essentially the act of taking vaginal discharge and dabbing it in certain areas of the body where you would normally put perfume or fragrance. What a pig. The neck, wrists and behind the ears.

[Brett]

Some girls would have the wet look the whole time.

[John Holmberg]

Some of them are just got cats.

[Brady]

Following them around when they walk in the room.

[John Holmberg]

Little cats. I don't know. Ever since I started vabbing, I've got a lot of cats. Anyway, it says I can't kidney.

[Brett]

Can I borrow some?

[John Holmberg]

Hang on. The thought that is that will attract a partner is the idea that the fluids supposedly contain pheromones that push out. But aren't you already pushing those out? If you've got.

[Brett]

I think so.

[John Holmberg]

If you've got that loaded right in the middle. Pheromones. You can't smell that dough and heat is already. Yeah, you don't need that up on your neck.

[Brady]

You smell like a can of starkist.

[John Holmberg]

Exactly. I seem to be attracting a lot of cats.

[Brett]

Last call at title nine would just be crazy.

[John Holmberg]

You might get a guy from Chula Seafood to follow you around for a little while. I don't know if it's me or you, but. What are you thinking? You have puppies and cats. They're gonna love you. But no, man, you know what it was? I don't know. I guess I went to kiss her neck and it smells like it was amazing. I don't want to smell it. If it has a scent, it's gone too far. I want you to wash. But that's the thing that they're telling her. It says the one girl's like, I swear if you fab you will attract men. One night stands, dates. You are going to get free drinks all night. And people do say it works at.

[Brady]

2Am so are we gonna be seeing.

[Brett]

These hip ads for like now? It's gonna be a slightly modified axe wound body spray.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, exactly. Yeah, ax wound. The wound. That's exactly right. Well done, Brady. This lady says the best way to do it is to get in there on your fingers and rub it all over your neck. She said I rub it on my body and people can smell my pheromones. A woman's health specialist. What a pig. Her name is Hannah Patel.

[Brett]

Patel.

[Brady]

Shocking.

[John Holmberg]

Previously warned against trying to vav as could pose a risk to your health. Potential to get an infection is a lot higher. Whole bacteria and fungus. This lady that's addicted to it in the article says that when the date's going well or she sees a guy she likes, she goes and reapplies in the bathroom. I know, I know. You know easy it is to get a guy. Why are you doing this? It's just talk to us.

[Brady]

Are these hot chicks though or are these pigs?

[John Holmberg]

Well, I didn't see any pictures.

[Brett]

Okay. I wonder if someone else if that works. I wonder if fudging would work.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, come on.

[Brett]

Thank you.

[John Holmberg]

Maybe the gay bars. That's not a bad idea. He smells like I love him. Yeah, Fabbing.

[Brady]

Imagine the aroma titled. Oh man.

[John Holmberg]

What's already bad.

[Brady]

It'd be worse though.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. The inside of the forester, so to speak. Get a couple fingers in that forester and the next thing you know. Well, that's a new thing. But again, cedar. And you know what I hate though? I hate that women. I hate that women think it's hard to get a guy. Like they're struggling walk up to the guy you like and just go, huh? What do you think? Just give us a wink or a hello?

[Brady]

Depends on what they look like. That's what I was asking.

[John Holmberg]

If you're a pig and you're covered in your own juice, you weren't doing too well in the first place. Just if that wins me over. Like some sort of Batman spray.

[Brett]

Like a thousand pound sister. Vabbing.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, God. Oh, man. Do that for. I need every edge. I can bring her into this.

[Brady]

It worked for Gary Payton.

[John Holmberg]

That is true. The dude. That is true. Gary Payton was interested. And here's how the doctor described it. I've had green pus, yellow pus, brown pus, pus mixed with blood.

[Brett]

I'm going to bear Jackson.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, I'm sorry. That was Dr. Pimple Popper. I apologize. What's it feel like when you put it on your neck? They burn, they drain. They have an odor. That's all right. Anyway. Vabbing with a V. Not like dabbing like Cam Newton used to do in the end zone. It's gross, but. Yeah, I don't think I would be. Like, I'm not attracted to her, but. Oh, I don't know what it is, but I'm magically attracted to her. Like the floating dog in the cartoon towards the pie on the windowsill. It's gross, but it's not hard for women to get. Guys. It just isn't the fact you're. If you're doing that, how hideous are you? Or how desperate must you be when there's dudes out there that, like, just walk up to Larry and say, hi, I find you interesting. And it's on.

[Brady]

You have to go to his house.

[John Holmberg]

But, oh, yeah, they're gonna knock on his door. But if you're. Hey, look, if you're jabbing fingers in your body to try to get. Just go to Larry's house. We'll give you the address. Us? Larry's. Like, I can't. I can't explain all these. These smelly girls are just pounding on my door.

[Brady]

Yuck.

[John Holmberg]

To all of you that think that's a thing, but it's a thing. I was like, this is a joke. And then they like a couple articles about it. So gross. So gross. But that's the world we live in today. Let's get ourselves a wake up song, shall we? 585-9800. A good one. And we'll scream it together. It's 98 KUPD. Wake up. Arizona's most powerful, powerful rock radio station.
