[C]

Good Monday morning to you, Phoenix.

[D]

Hello, world.

[C]

Happy National Groundhog Day.

[D]

That's right.

[C]

It's also National Tater Tot Day.

[D]

I had the experience of sitting across from a Russian girl at IHOP who looked at the menu and said, what is this? And pointed to one of the pictures. And I said, what are you pointing at? It was like a breakfast. What are you pointing at? This here. What is this? She didn't have that second action. I made it that thick. I was gonna say, man, she just got there. He just arrived the other day. And I said, what are you pointing at? And then we all started laughing at it. And she. She goes, this here. And I'm like, those are hash browns. Hash browns. I'm like, it's potatoes. You had potatoes in Russia. That's probably all you ate.

[C]

No, they only made them for vodka.

[D]

We won't allow you, Nick. That's exactly what I was like.

[C]

That's.

[D]

Your whole country's, like, major export. Like, we pulled them out of the ground, and you eat, like, apple. You don't do it.

[C]

Dirt.

[D]

An ihop International House. Well, I brought a Russian, so, yeah, it's international. It's what the. What's called hash browns? Yeah. You can eat those. Yes.

[C]

It probably changed the world.

[D]

I don't know. Well, I think so. Yeah. That's right. I've never had these. I don't know how to tell you, but each bite of changing experience, each bite of hash browns makes me orgasm. It's America. I love it here. She wasn't that foreign, but she didn't know what hash browns were. And that threw me off. I'm like, what, the golden brown potato bigot? How'd she look? Yeah. Oh, she's nice. She's a pretty girl. What are you talking about? She didn't know what potatoes are. Dumb. Dumb. She's a visitor to our land. They don't have hash browns. Consider Yourselves. Lucky you run around protesting everything. We've got hash browns. There's people who've lived here for a couple years who didn't even know what they were. I don't know what that is. And then at one point she said to me, where do you live? And I told her how much was house like. Jesus. This is a. Like. I think I'm being abducted. What is hash brown? You just eat potato out of ground. Decent person cooking. Yuck. It's very strange, but I enjoyed it anyway. Sorry, go ahead.

[C]

Couple of basis fun facts. The hashtag symbol is technically called an octothorpe. Octo preference refers to the eight points. But the thorpe is a mystery. One theory claims that it comes from an old English word for village because it looks like a village surrounded by eight fields.

[D]

What's going on here?

[C]

The crown jewels contain the two biggest cut diamonds on earth. They both came from the Culinan diamond, which is 3,106 carats. It was found in South Africa in 1905. All right, last one is you can hear a blue whale's heartbeat from two miles away.

[D]

Who can?

[C]

You.

[D]

You think I can't? Yeah, you don't have to.

[C]

On one side.

[D]

Yeah. Do you have your hearing aid going? Yeah. You're not going to hear that whale's heart. How would I know, Brady, if you.

[C]

Heard the blue whales have hurt.

[D]

If I was just in a. What do you hear? Near, far, wherever you stick your head.

[C]

Under the water, that's what you gotta do. Yep. Like, what was that?

[D]

What was that, bro?

[C]

I heard a blue whale.

[D]

And you got to convince the people you're surfing with, oh, it's a blue whale within two miles. I heard it. Like, he's lost. He's bruh.

[B]

Zach gets it because we. We hear it every day.

[D]

But hearing him having a new guy sit here going, come on, what's wrong with him? Well, also, how close are you to a blue whale? Two miles. Two miles.

[C]

Where are you going to be?

[D]

In a position in the ocean.

[C]

If you're any closer, get out.

[B]

If you're any closer.

[D]

You know, Brady loves to dive and freestyle swim in the ocean. And occasionally, when he hears the. The haunting heartbeat of a blue whale, he has to get back in the boat.

[C]

We gotta get out of the water. Why? I just heard a blue whale's heartbeat.

[D]

There's no way Brady would treat that like the. Like the lifeguards in Jaws get everybody out of the water. You can't. No, you can't. That's one of those facts you throw out there and nobody's ever going to check up on it. That's just garbage.

[C]

I've heard it.

[D]

You haven't. Nobody ever has. And if they did, they didn't know. They just thought somebody dropped something. You can't hear a blue whale's heartbeat for two miles. Unless you're another blue.

[C]

Lions roar is five miles.

[D]

Come on.

[C]

What?

[D]

No.

[C]

Yeah, that's what they say.

[D]

I've been in the mgm. I've been in the MGM where they had lions and people are like, lions are freaking out. You can't hear them. In the. In the casino.

[C]

You can hear lions roar.

[D]

No, you can't. I've been in rooms with lions and they're roaring. And I had to go run to see it because I couldn't hear it. I wanted to get closer. I wouldn't. Five miles away.

[C]

Read it to lead.

[D]

I know it'll be up there. But again, these are those facts that Brady and all his zoo animal people throw out, and none of them are quantifiable.

[B]

I know. That was what I was saying. A lion's roar is incredibly powerful, capable of being heard from as far as five miles. Miles. Eight kilometers away.

[D]

No.

[B]

It is considered as one of the loudest sounds made by any animal reaching up to 114 decibels.

[A]

You.

[D]

We would hear it at the zoo. We're close enough.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Nope. Never heard one. Nope.

[C]

They're not allowed to.

[D]

I've ridden my bike with you.

[C]

They got shot by the zoo papago. They got shot callers.

[D]

That's fine. They still roar like a bar car. See, this is why these.

[C]

They do not.

[D]

This is why the COVID Clear him. Get us out of that lawsuit.

[C]

I was. I was joking.

[D]

You're an idiot. You can hear a car steering for over 20 miles. No, you can't. You just. You know what you did? You know what these dummies did that somebody heard we eat it. And then they got in one of those weird Toyotas and they just drove and they. At five miles later, they saw a lion. That has to be the one. And then they thought you took that five miles away. Hberg.

[D]

Holmberg's Morning Darkness.

[B]

It's a garbage ghost in the darkness or something.

[D]

Garbage? Where did you learn that garbage stat?

[C]

Columbus Zoo.

[D]

At the zoo. Jack Hannah told you that nonsense. If you're within five miles of a zoo, you'd hear it.

[C]

Yeah, you can. I mean, you could hear it outside.

[D]

No, you couldn't.

[C]

From the Columbus zoo, you know.

[D]

No.

[C]

33.

[D]

You could. No, you couldn't. You couldn't.

[C]

That's exactly what they sound like, too.

[D]

It's a line at the zoo. Thank you.

[C]

I didn't want lie with a hair lip.

[D]

He ate jelly beans. And yeah, he was born with a cleft palate. Those are. Those are stats that are just stupid people. Stats that get thrown out and then. But, you know, this is how you know you're boring is when you throw one out and people go, yeah, and they just move on with their life. I don't hear another word that guy says. You just agree with them instead of, what I do is like, that's. That's absolute horse.

[C]

You need. You need to have it proved let's.

[D]

Let's stand outside. I'll just. We'll drive right up Galvin Parkway and stand outside the zoo.

[C]

Chew the lion.

[D]

Yeah. Hours. When I'll just. There.

[C]

They could get it to roar.

[D]

Then you'll be going. Maybe that was it. Yeah. You go inside and you pay somebody a couple hundred bucks. Go get that line pissed off. If I hear it, I'll give Brady my car. We wouldn't.

[C]

I'll make some calls.

[D]

It's a garbage stat for uninteresting people. It's a test, actually. What Brady just gave you was a fun fact. Is if you want somebody to stop talking to you, give them that one and they'll walk away. That's great. I'm gonna go talk to someone else for a little while.

[C]

You just nod your head and go. Yeah. Cool.

[D]

You know that the roar of a lion can be heard for over five miles? This guy's an idiot.

[C]

All right.

[D]

That's nice meeting you, Brody.

[C]

You too. My man can hear a whale's heartbeat.

[D]

For two miles in the water. That's not like Zach said. When is that ever gonna affect me? Ever? Why do I care?

[C]

Well, maybe this will affect Zach. There was a random poll that asked 4, 000 people to weigh in. Which holiday character would win if they all went in a free for all fight. Here's where it goes. So, Easter Bunny, the groundhog.

[B]

Wait a minute.

[C]

Easter Santa.

[B]

Easter Bunny's best or worst?

[C]

What do you mean?

[B]

Best fighter or worst fighter?

[C]

Who would take. Who would win? This is the leprechaun from St. Patty's Day. Well, that's not happening.

[A]

Hold on.

[D]

This is the rankings of all of our phony. Yes.

[C]

And if they were fighting, if they had a. So this would be the champion.

[D]

So it's the champion. And then the top 10. Ring magazine's top fighters.

[C]

And here's my. My only problem is someone brought in the tooth fairy. There's no holiday.

[B]

Breakdown characters.

[C]

But they included the.

[D]

But just mythical, like visitors to your home, right?

[C]

Yes.

[D]

I mean, to the kid without a tooth, there's. It's a. That's a holiday.

[B]

It's a holiday every time you lose one.

[D]

And Tooth fairy is probably the most. The hardest one to hit. I would guess like a mosquito.

[C]

And maybe he's defensive. He. He throwing.

[D]

You have a male tooth fairy?

[A]

Wow.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Those three.

[B]

You gendered him.

[D]

Do you have a male or female tooth fairy?

[C]

I'm just basing it off the. Do you think it's a man Santa Claus movie?

[D]

Huh? Basing it don't base it off that you're doing when you were a kid. Male or female tooth fairy. I'm basing it off the Dwayne Johnson movie. Yeah, well, okay. Well, you were 50 when that came out, so that. That was not when you're supposed to make your tooth fairy choices.

[C]

Well, I probably went. Yeah. With male.

[D]

You went with a man.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

No kidding.

[C]

Because.

[D]

Did everybody do that?

[C]

Am I the only abroad female dentist?

[D]

It wasn't a dentist.

[C]

Tooth fairy.

[D]

No, she's not a dentist.

[B]

And you also didn't have that clarity at four.

[D]

Yeah. And you weren't that. Women shouldn't work.

[C]

You weren't that.

[D]

Well, I lost my tooth and women shouldn't work.

[C]

Yeah, I thought it was.

[D]

That's gay. If it's. Out of those three, I'm going with the. For the fighting. The Easter Bunny. Think the bunny wins it.

[C]

Oh, yeah.

[D]

I think Santa's got them all.

[C]

Well, if it was those 42 believe Santa would come out, kicks everybody.

[D]

You never said Santa.

[B]

I don't think he said.

[C]

But then 25 say love wins Cupid.

[D]

Cupid has a weapon and he gets 4%.

[C]

Said the leprechaun.

[D]

No, too drunk, but loves fighting. Can't hurt him. Magic.

[C]

Also, he said he'd tell him to meet me outside the other end of the rainbow where they all would be destroyed.

[D]

I think the leprechaun has more power than you think because you can't hurt him.

[C]

11 said Punxsutawney Phil would gnaw out.

[D]

That doesn't make any sense. He shouldn't even be in this.

[C]

4% believe the tooth Fairy. Magical powers. Maybe spit baby teeth at you.

[D]

I never once assumed someone else had a man. Tooth Fairy. My Tooth Fairy is always like Tinkerbell. Like kind of hot too. I picture, like a sexy one. That's you, kind of.

[C]

Three and a half percent said the Easter Bunny has a violent evil side which would maul the rest of the holiday characters.

[D]

I don't care about this anymore. When your tooth fairy showed up in your mind, it was just a guy with wings. Like it was.

[C]

Tell you the truth, I probably never really pictured them. I just, you know, I was happy there's a dough.

[D]

But you thought a dude did it.

[C]

Yeah, I always. I always. The pictures that I saw of the Tooth Fairy, I think were. So you did picture, like in a storybook.

[B]

You saw pictures.

[D]

He's got some.

[C]

Hear the story of the Tooth Fairy? Yeah.

[D]

And the Tooth Fairy would lean down to bridge and go. You can hear a lion's roar for five miles. I'll never forget that, man.

[C]

Yeah, I always heard it was.

[D]

That's interesting. I wonder how many people thought it was. I never even thought to question it. I wonder how many people thought Tooth fairy was a fella. I think of all fairies as women. Except for down at KDKB there. Oh, yeah, that goes both ways. It's a different kind of ferry.

[B]

And when you're riding in your bronco.

[D]

And then when Mark's with me in the Bronx, the ferry ride. The ferryman, Huh. I learned something about you, Brady.

[C]

Automakers in the U. S. Have been introducing all sorts of new trucks and SUVs. But minivan sales surged 2021 percent in 2025 because a millennial dads lead the demand for the cars. Usually a mom car.

[B]

Yeah, John, I gotta say, I played papago one time and I know it's not five miles, but I heard those lions.

[D]

No, you didn't. You heard a car go by. First off, don't bull. You're cruddy. I heard it once. Stories when there's freeways closer. You heard cars. There's too much noise in the air around here for a lion's roar to cut through the. The noise pollution.

[B]

Jackass says it was very early morning with no cars driving by. Very quiet. Also, Happy Monday and let's go hawks. There you go.

[D]

That's why he read it. So he's retarded too.

[C]

You just put that one in. There's a Philippine airline, a 777 Boeing airlines that was taken off from Los Angeles flying to Manila. And a little about an hour into the flight, complete lavatory flushing system failure. Oh. So the crew had to scoop it out. Scoop. Because it's a 15 hour flight.

[A]

I'd quit.

[C]

Scoop. Human waste, right?

[D]

What do you mean? The crew from there, from there. You just. Anybody needs to use this. Put a bag in the toilet in.

[C]

There and they have to scoop.

[D]

No, no.

[B]

What he said.

[D]

You make the people poop in a bag and they make it more convenient. Tie it up and they put it in a. In a igloo cooler or something somewhere in the back of the plane.

[C]

It's just a mess.

[D]

And who's still the guy who's gonna deuce on a 15 hour flight when they tell you it doesn't flush? I'm doing it.

[C]

That would be an interesting stat. Like on a 15 hour flight, how many people are dropping?

[D]

On my flight to Australia, which was about 16, 17 hours, there were people. There was a dude who went twice in front of me. He got up and went to the bathroom. They feed you five times. So some people like Brady wouldn't make it. Like he poops like two seconds later because he can't control the sphincter. So this guy goes to the bathroom, doesn't come back for like eight minutes and I'm like, he's poop.

[C]

I'm not bagging it either. They're scooping.

[D]

You're bagging it to work.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

By the way, I don't know how this happened. It said Holmberg, if there was a real tooth fair, you'd have met him because that big Jew nose would have smelled that bag of quarters. How do I get want to get punched for the tooth fairy? And it's just a big nose. There's no reason to throw the middle in there. I'm not Brett.

[C]

I know you want to eventually stroll around nothing but tracksuits. Oh yeah, there's a new one available. Amtrak is getting into fashion. They're selling a limited edition tracksuit that includes a zip up jacket and joggers got pants, jacket, the whole thing and a sleep mask for per purchase.

Your neighbor Laser just texted and said, sometimes at night, I can hear Brady's heartbeat, but then the CPAP turns on and drowns it out. Yeah, that's probably true. It gets a little loud at your place. We're gonna go stand by that. That zoo. We'll go in the zoo. There'll be no. There'll be no lions roaring. If they do, we won't hear it.

[C]

Oh, you can hear it. You can't.

[D]

You have to be close. I would say you have to be thousand feet.

[C]

Oh, for sure.

[D]

Yeah. No, in the zoo. But on a quarter mile. In the zoo.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

And even still, you'd be like, what was that? Five miles? That's insane.

[C]

You think about it. In Serengeti, it's pretty flat.

[D]

Golfing at Papago, I guess, right? I believe it. Like, I didn't hear somebody's hellcat.

[C]

I gotta get there early in the morning.

[B]

Somebody texted that in also. Wouldn't you then hear everything on the savannah?

[D]

Yes.

[C]

Oh, yeah. You hear lots of sounds, but the lion roar is the loudest one.

[D]

Hey, wait a minute.

[C]

That was at least five miles away.

[D]

Five miles away. I think that's one of those kookaburras. It's a ceiling bird. Sorry. Garbage.

[C]

I just have two videos, but the one is the box.

[D]

Yeah, yeah, we already did. We already talked about it. So you only have one. Learn to eliminate trimming. Trim as you. So, You all right?

[C]

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. It's a fight. It's a fight. It's one of the drifting car things.

[D]

Okay.

[C]

And the guys are getting them out of the way.

[D]

All right, so we got people drifting in circles, and then there's some dude standing in the middle of the drifting track. All right, let's go to that. Oh, and the guy Just starts. Wow.

[C]

He just hits him out.

[D]

Oh, and then you're gonna get hit by a car. Oh, little skinny dude. This is in Africa.

[C]

Something more of Brady's culture.

[D]

And here comes more. Yeah, he just hits a guy. That's all this is. Nobody gets hit by the car.

[B]

This was on Mil Av.

[D]

That guy probably could have heard it better from Papago than the lion. You see? And both ironically happening in Africa. The lion and this drifting race that's going on in the middle of Nairobi. Why does he hit him? Just get out of the way. Is that his son? Yes, it might have been a son. He's protecting us. All right, thanks for that. All right, you ready to go, Brett?

[C]

Sure.

[D]

Let's tease young Zach into her dark web videos of Monday. Here we go. Get ready, Zach. These can sometimes go sideways, and it start off looking directly into somebody's anus. Geez. It's a close up of an anus. Oh, she's putting a sex toy into the anus. Seems to be the basics at this point. There's not a whole lot going on. Oh, she just pooped. She just pooped a. It was for the camera. The best part was they had plans to be, like, sexy where she was shown, and then she was gonna fart or something, like a fetish video. And it got really bad.

[B]

And then.

[D]

A little poop came out. What the people do for Internet viral stuff is great. Whatever she had planned before wasn't gonna be as big as that. All right, we're in a dash cam video. Dash cam flight. Well, here comes a guy, got a motorcycle, head on into the. And he goes right to sleep. He does. He's so drunk that he crashed on the car, landed on the hood, and then went into a nice sleep position. He's not even hurt. How about that?

[C]

Sleep shock.

[D]

Do you think that people who are wrong way drivers see all the other cars and think, man, there's a lot of wrong way drivers? Yeah, like, I wonder what goes through their mind.

[C]

What are these jackasses?

[D]

Everybody's going the wrong way but me.

[B]

Or why do I only have one lane and everybody else has five?

[D]

It has to dawn on you for a second that everybody else is wrong until you realize, well, wait a minute, it's me. And then usually it's too late when.

[C]

You were driving the opposite lane.

[D]

All right, that's a terrible question. We covered it already. You don't have to talk to him every time. He likes new people. All right, all right. This one just says, wait, like a little gathering there's people. It looks like India. There's a guy running around in front of a crowd of what, families and stuff. And he's got his hand in his ass. Oh, is he got massive diarrhea. And he steps right over a child and sprays a kid.

[A]

Curry man.

[D]

Yeah. It's their food. And in India that's normal.

[B]

I don't know if that was a child. I think that might have been a full grown woman.

[D]

You think? Yeah. This dude comes out of a restaurant to a bunch of people sitting down, waiting.

[C]

I guess mom was definitely over there on the side.

[D]

Maybe they just live outside the restaurant. But this guy's liquid. Just liquid eyes. All on top of the gym.

[C]

Yeah, because it's on her pants.

[D]

Yeah, look at the pants.

[C]

Oh.

[B]

Oh.

[D]

Good Lord. They're so used to diarrhea in India. Nobody got out of his way. Like, you make way for a dude pooping and running at you.

[C]

No big deal.

[A]

The water. They gotta bathe.

[D]

I know. Make it. Well, that's where he was going to go take a quick bath. Oh, parachute video. And he's going into some water and he's got. He's gonna miss the water. He missed the water. He skipped out.

[C]

Oh.

[D]

Oh, his leg is in half. Oh, not worth it. All right, that's. That's a good one. We hit the edge of the water he was supposed to land in. And it's from his knee. Over. Just went dead left. Yikes. All right. Oh, I don't know what that is.

[B]

This guy lost his toilet.

[A]

Now.

[D]

This guy lost his vape pen in a pile of. It's a sewer. And see if it still works in the toilet. And they took the toilet off of where the toilet goes and reached into whatever the hole is in the ground where the toilet is. He's got his glove on. First guy said hit it and see if it still works. Yeah. Oh, is that his vape pen? He's pulling out of massive amounts of chili and poop. And he's just toying around with the poop. Just pick up your vape pen and wash it if you're gonna keep it. Oh, he's gonna smoke it. Why is it all in slo mo like an assassination?

[B]

Oh, they're in a ballpark.

[D]

Looks like that. The Royal Stadium. He's gonna wash it off. Yeah.

[B]

We don't need the slow mo.

[D]

And he's gonna use it, isn't he? Oh, the slow mo. Tension for when he puts that in his mouth. Please don't do this. Please do not.

[C]

It's gonna hit his lips.

[D]

Please do not do this. Oh, he's blowing smoke up that redneck smokes poop. You look at his face. That's a guy that would do that. Oh my Lord. That's incredible. Oh yeah, that's vomiting. I don't know what that is. That same guy? No, no, it's a different dude. All right, so that's what we got. Thanks, Brad.

[B]

All right, we just got this one sent in as if we've seen this. Our girl Livy Dunn. Oh, she stepped into the batter's box against.

[D]

Oh, Paul Skeens, her boyfriend, super pitcher Paul Skeens is going to pitch to the beautiful Livy Dunn, his girlfriend. What if he lost control and ended it? Oh, she's standing in the batter's box. Do you have it on yours? Look at those. Look at her.

[C]

She's gonna take him deep.

[D]

She is college. All right. She's spectacular. She's in her little viori tights.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Schemes, throws pure heat. She doesn't move the bat. Gotta swing the bat to get a hit. Libby, look at that body. My God, I wouldn't even risk it.

[C]

No.

[D]

He'S throwing 100 miles an hour at his girlfriend. And just in the off chance that. Imagine right to the hip. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

Even if he's 80, 70%, that's still an 80 mile an hour fast.

[D]

He's standing on a like a fake mound that could slide out from under him and then he loses control and he heads Levy Dunn and it's over. Don't do that. You've got a beautiful girlfriend. Don't throw things at her.

[B]

How about her for stepping in though?

[D]

Chuck it out at ugly broads. Now Paul Skeen's could like I'll take the ugliest girl in the audience right now standing there, grab a bat I'm going to throw at you and then give her a little high heat and see if she can get out of the way. The, the mom from the. The story from earlier. Oh yeah, yeah. Get that lady out there for you. Just stand in there and get brushed back a couple of times by.

[C]

Ever step into the box?

Yeah, like her son does. Nice. Anyway, thank you. It's 8:20. We've got Brady Gro with special guests Kevin Ray's son. They share a birthday.
