C
Okay. I was like, let's not promise that.

What a dummy. Gotta read the questions I wrote for myself. Hello, me. It's me with a question. Go ahead me, I'll answer it. Shannon thought he was a star. What do you like most about being Dave? Being Dave? Yeah. It was the best interview he's ever done. And I write my own questions. Little insight. Then we asked a few of those. What's your favorite lunch? Sushi with Holmberg. When I can tell him that he shouldn't shred on me because I can still shred.
C
Well, I guess. You look happy. That's good to hear.
B
I got what I needed out. I should just do the interview myself and send it to people.
C
That'd be more convenient.

A
I look good.
B
I think I look pretty good. What about a Hellcat? I don't like hellcats too much. Something about me inside a Hellcat is like. I feel like the frosting inside an Oreo. It's like I just don't feel like I fit in there very well. So anyway, no, I'm just. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm wandering around doing my thing. No, no, I got my footing. Brady. I'm not on any hill now. Brady's got me thinking about falling. Here we go.

Gotten a little older, but I'm walking around a nice wheelchair chair I've got for the fire and I landed on a muffler and burned my face off. But I'll be over at Barrett Jackson over there at the Bear Jackson muffler. You got to bounce up on one. A lot of those people have their cause underneath there. You been to the Barrett Jackson. You see that the way to act like you know the cause. If you could even lay down under a car, I think everybody's going to sit there. I just fell down, hit my face on. Anyway, I'll be out there. I'm going to bid on everything. So if you guys want it, it's going to be mine in the end.
A
I'll see you out there.

B
Geography. Grady knows that the place you're going is in Chandler. Cuz you told me. Yes, and the Grady part kills me. Yeah, it is Grady. It's different than the Grady. It's a Grady. It's a gritty Brady, and yet the same. Somehow they just blend together.

C
Oh.
B
So I decided to stop over and be how the bees.
C
That's right.
B
You got me excited about that. They're doing well, Betty. Thanks for asking. The Bees are doing great. Yeah. Oh, no. I brought some money for Brady.
C
Yes, for that.
A
Is that a Hellcat Hornet out there?
B
That's a Hellcat Hornet. That's right. I'm not allowed in that here. Yeah. Yeah, it looks funny in that one, too. It's like a double stuff if you got in it with me. That's right. But it goes very fast. But I don't need that to go very fast. I'm very fast on my own.
C
All right.
B
A new movie coming out.
C
Okay.
B
Beekeeper 2. This time it's personal.
A
Really.
C
The bees.
B
Now we've got a little. We've got a little vendetta to pay back Frank Honeycomb. That's right.
C
That's my name.
B
Frank Honeycomb. You know, that's how it is. I'll drive very fast. Who's going to get them? Happy birthday, Thriller. Oh, thank you, Frank Honeycomb. I know. I'm with Bread on that Frank Honeycomb line. Yeah, that's funny. But is it that? Is it. Everybody gets tickets. Let's leave.
A
Time to go.
C
All right, now, what's that noise? Bottom left square here, Brady. Secret square. Give us a hint.
B
Thanks for having me in, gentlemen. I'm 75 years old. I saved 154 souls on January 15, 2009, because I landed my plane in the Hudson River.
C
All right, It's a hero.
B
Okay, that should do it, right?
C
Straight enough. Scorpions.
A
Yeah.
B
Is that the guy? Is that. Who did that?
C
All right, now we got the bottom middle here. Howard Stern. Hello, sir.
B
Yeah, I got brought up on the show earlier this week. Homer gets called as a. A cheap imitation. No, he doesn't. I don't know what you're talking about. You got this cripple kid on the show. You got Red Robin. You got Breadlejuice. You've got Baba Bastard. I mean, how in the world is this show any like. It's completely different. I mean, in other words, it's a different show, is what I'm saying. Whatever you say, Howard. Yeah, that's exactly right. And that's how we should do it around here. That's exactly the phrase. It pays right there. That's right. The golden asshole has spoken. The golden asshole has spoken. And that's all we need to know. Yeah. No, I'm going to take off spring and summer this year and still get $35 million. And you can feel my finger inside of all radio guys. But that just kills everybody. It's between me and Beth. No, I'll v. I vab with Beth, though. She takes it. And Beth does two months off at a time as well.
A
McDonald.
B
Yeah. How did he. Not. My Beth. Yeah. Kez's. Yeah. The other Beth. Yeah. She's the poor man's best. Homberg's. The poor man's stern. And she's the poor man's my best. Oh, yeah. Anyway, how about Beth vabbing? Holy Red Robin. Do you like to vap? Where do you like to rub your vap juice? Yum. Right?
C
All right.
B
Now, do you want to go out with Red Robin? The Thriller will pay for it. You'll be able to resist her. I just think you should take chances. A blind date is a good idea for you. She doesn't need to see.
C
I'll do it. If you do it, I'll nail.
B
I'll nail the. The mentally challenged kid.
A
A neurodivergent.
B
She's gonna be very focused.
C
That's a good album title.
B
Yeah. You can wander around jerking off all the time. You get this. Why don't you get this mentally challenged kid to do it? Okay.
C
Oh, no, no, no.
B
What's wrong with that? No, no. Come on. Nobody else is doing it. Yeah, you got the offer. Just take her up on it.
C
What's wrong with you? There might be a reason.
B
There might be a reason. What, that you don't get hard for a girl's hands? What if she spits a neurodivergent spit in her poem? Oh, I was already imagining she's ugly.
C
Yeah, that's nasty.
B
What's nasty about it? You watch porn. You spit. Starts doing math with her left hand while she's working with her right hand. She's, like, solving equations.
C
Toothpicks.
B
Yeah, yeah. She's counting toothpicks. She drops on the ground. Yeah. Driving a Chrysler 300 in the driveway and working.
A
Judge Wapner.
B
Yeah, she got Wapner on at 12:30. People's Court. You keep it on there. You keep the people's court. You get it from behind. Let her watch tv. All right.
C
Maybe he can save me here. Bottom line square. Our lord and savior, Tripp Reeve. How are you, sir?
B
I'm not saving anything. I like this idea. You should get a hand job from that crippled kid. Not happening anywhere else.
C
I need advice, sir. Would you do this?
A
No.
C
Oh, okay.
B
Because I don't have. Right. But you do. You know who else could use a hand?
C
Who's that?
B
Larry. Maybe the R word could get both of you like she's cross country skiing.
A
She's not our word.
B
Kinda. I don't know how it works over there. I just know she's not normal. It wouldn't have gotten mentioned. Trip makes a good point. Like, if she was normal, you wouldn't say she wasn't. So let's get googly eyes in here and see what she can do.
C
All right, hop on the board.
B
We better hurry.
C
Oh, let's see what we got. Betty and Chris.
B
Who?
A
Betty and Chris.
B
Betty and Chris. Betty, are you there? I am Here. Chris, are you there? I am. All right. Betty, you're a girl. Go. All right, let's start with this secret square. Sully. Oh, she knows.
C
Sully. Straight up.
B
Did it quick. Nice job, Betty.
C
All right, over to Chris here. Make your choice.
B
I'll do geography. Brady. In the middle now. Come on, now.
C
Geography.
B
Grady. Now Geography Brady. Grady Grogan. Where you at right now, Chris? At my house. Where is that house at, geographically speaking? Good year. Oh, that. New and good year. New and good year. Another G. There's another. Is he ain't good? You're eating bug eyes. All right, I messed that up. Geography. Where do you live there, Thom?
C
I'm over in Phoenix.
B
Oh, Phoenix. Let's see. That's. Yes. You're in Phoenix. Then that's a geographer.
C
He's so good at you.
B
By booty's wings. Your clothes are booty's wings. What direction is that? That way. Geography speaking.
C
All right. Got a question for you.
B
I'm Grady Grogan. Geography. I mean, I run a geography bee. I'm a geography beekeeper like Jason Statham, only with the. With the. With the places.
A
Where's South Mountain?
B
Put a pin in it. Oh, okay. It's right back there. It's a big one.
A
Yeah, I mean south, right?
C
He's right.
B
Unless you're down south of that. Then it's North Mountain.
A
Well, there you go.
B
How can south Tucson. It's become north. Okay. Anyway, Geography, Brady. Can't help everybody.
C
Yeah, very busy. Photography, Brady.
B
I said Grady.
A
Brady.
C
Grady.
B
Go on now.
C
All right. People who are swear tend to be more dishonest than those who do not.
B
Oh, that's crazy. You the most honest, most animated world, Brett. You just move where you move to Mesa. It's right over there. Go to hell.
C
Not a fan of Mesa.
B
You say people swear more dishonest?
C
Yes.
B
I don't know what that be. Oh, if I swear to you, that means I'm lying? Yes. So if I say I, your wife means you're Lying. That means I'm not telling you the truth.
C
No way.
B
If I say I didn't your wife, you better look out geography. Grady did not do that. I'll say that's probably true.
C
Okay, you're saying true there now, Chris, do you agree or disagree with true? I'll agree.
A
Incorrect.
C
Then X gets the square.
B
Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
C
Betty could take Trump for the win here.
B
You know it. Let's go. President Trump. That's right. I can tell Betty's a big fan. Probably has a picture above her fireplace of me with a bloody ear. Fight, fight, fight. That's what I said.
C
With or without clothes?
B
With a flag. Maybe she's done a little altering and taken out the cat for you. Oh, Black Betty. She's probably. She's probably a black. They love me. They love me. The blacks love me.
A
Does Darth Vader love you?
B
Darth Vader and Geography Grady both. I did vote for him. Take it for what it's worth. Did we sell your whip? You ever live with a black woman? We still ain't gonna let one president. I had to vote for the white man. I told you they love me. Isn't that right, Black Betty? You know it. That's right. You know it. You can hear it in a voice. She's basically a member of Salt and Pepper. She's like Spinderella. I know that.
C
All right, I got a question for you here, Sir.
B
Okay.
C
Approximately 20% of all cell phones in use have been dropped in the toilet or urinal.
B
2 out of 10. 2 out of 10 cell phones have been in the pee and the poo. And that's worldwide. Yes. So that number includes India. Ooh, those are made of pee and poop in India. I think that's probably true. 20% is a pretty low number when you start counting in the Indians. Yes.
C
Okay, you're seeing children.
B
Very true, Very true. They're mostly all poop.
C
All right, now, Betty for the win here, possibly. Do you agree or disagree with true?
B
I am going to have to agree. Correct.
C
X gets the squeeze and the win.
B
Baron dropped his phone in the dumper once. You think he'll get it away? Took it away from him for a little while. His long arms went all the way down to the P trap he got stuck to. We got him in. There we go. Okay, now. But, yeah, don't drop your phone in the poopy. The Phoenix Open or Barrett Jackson or anywhere else. Just leave it. Not that important. All right, I'm off to kill Greenland. He's quick on that and gotta kill those people.
A
He's on a mission.
B
Gotta get that peace prize by killing those folks. That's it. We're done, huh?
C
Yep.
B
Holy cow. Three day work weeks are awesome.
A
Oh man. I mean I even look how focused Brady was. I know.
B
Well, that's not graded off of Grady.
A
Grady was doing good.
B
Good. What? Let's see. I'm gonna go the raising canes. We will bojangles. Geographically speaking, of course. Which is this way and that away.
C
Oh man.
B

B

A
When does the women's basketball game get over?
C
There's not one today.
B
Keep in mind she wanted to date you sight unseen.
C
She doesn't even know what it looked like.
B
Exactly.
C
So we're both lying to each other.
B
Whoa. Wow. Son of a bitch. See if I ever try to get you blown again.
C
I'm an adult, so I can handle myself.
B
I know that you've been doing too much of it. That's why we're trying to help. We're done. You guys have yourselves a fantastic neurodivergent weekend.
