Final Thoughts

Irreverently riffing on American culture, Holmberg and crew keep things light but unfiltered, poking fun at regional quirks, race, and social trends. The episode’s highlight comes from the blend of observational humor, awkward real-life confessions, and their penchant for seeing the absurd in everyday situations. Their take on “vagueposting,” Budweiser shirt culture, and John’s legendary fail all deliver on HMS’s promise to “entertain, question and disturb”—with a heavy dash of Arizona snark.

[Brett Vesely]

You get your chance to experience the Nine Inch Nail show from the KUPD party suite, which will be awesome. 25 years of morning sickness. That's what this is. This podcast has been around for 25 years. Like 18 years longer than podcast. We started it. We're originals. We've been doing a live podcast on the radio, taping our podcast every day since 2001, and now look at it. And we got these things to give away, so we're just. We're starting. We're kicking it off. There's gonna be a bunch of really cool stuff heading your way. Make it real easy for you. So we say, thank you for listening, but always download that app. Make the Bob's up there in Chicago and Minneapolis happy. And so they go, wow, your app numbers are huge. Okay, great. Let those weirdos kind of celebrate their wins. Like, they came up with an idea, which they've never done in their lives. So there you go. Congratulations to the winner.

[John]

Would you call what we do here.

[Brett Vesely]

All your ideas are terrible, Pops, just pipe down. What can we do? No, no, no, no. I do a show every day. What can you do? What do you do you do? Bob, we need to bring more people to. No, no, no, no. You need to bring people to the party. I'll entertain them when they come. Shouldn't we have more? Yeah, that's your job. What do you do, Bob?

[John]

What would you say you do here.

[Brett Vesely]

You say is your purpose? Bob, I have to. You need to come up with more ideas for promos. No, no, no, no, no. I sell your promos. You do that. Bob's. Ugh, I can't stand them. Anyway, it's time for. Oh, by the way, I got this email before we get going. It says, john, FYI, because of what I said about the eagle flying on that, the most redneck, awesome thing I've ever seen. FYI, patriotism shouldn't be tied to white trash and the military. Some of the black and Latino soldiers were the most patriotic, and they loved that commercial with the eagle on the back. Just FYI, liberal media want you to think white patriotic equals racist. Back to the fart jokes. All right, jail. I agree that that's true, but let's be realistic here and tell me right now what race is buying the T shirt with a horse as an eagle riding it. It's going to be white people in Alabama, and it's a funny shirt. It's going to be sold at Walmart. It's going to. And there will be a few. Look, if you can't hear the example, as the averages have outliers on either end. So if you know a guy who. Who goes against the trend, that's what an average is. There's people on this side, on this side, but the majority meet in the middle. Most people with a horse on their shirt and an eagle's riding a horse. Found it. Overweight white people. And that's fine. I think it's redneck. Awesome. If I saw a fat dude who had a horse with an eagle riding it on his shirt, I could pretty much describe it. We play that. What color is it? Yeah, yeah, come on. He was spotted. If they're looking for a missing person and they said, not real sure the details of him, but he was last seen with a Clydesdale horse had an eagle on its back. Like, it's a fat white guy. There's no. There's nobody out there. And would be surprising, albeit possible, that it would be a Latino or a black guy. But the odds are really stacked against you there. If I'm fandueling or Vegas. Odd in that it is 2 to 1. It's a fat white, but I'm gonna throw odds out there that it's possible it's 10 to 1 that a brother put on the Clydesdale Budweiser heavy shirt with an eagle flying on it. And come on. That touched my inner white in a big way. I mean, it's very possible that old English forties could have done a commercial with a horse with an eagle on its back. And white people would have been like, I don't like that beer. But God damn, is that the coolest. Still wouldn't have targeted that audience properly. It's the reason why Billy Dee Williams did colt 45 and not horses and eagles.

[Byron]

They grew up together.

[Brett Vesely]

John, that was beautiful. It was touching. It got me. I didn't know that was an eagle. When the little. When the little cult found like, oh, little bird fell and he's standing in the rain. Oh, oh, that little guy. He's out there. Oh, poor fellow. And then the horse went and stood over him like, I'm gonna protect this foundational member of American society, this representation of freedom. And the horse saved it. And the eagle was grateful and taught him to fly. It was the best part. He didn't have a mother. Put it on his back, said, I'll run. You jump off and flap. Like, the horse knew the horse mud. The horse knew your job is to fly. Eagle. And then that majestic shot of him jumping that. Oh, my God, my inner hillbilly went bananas. Budweiser. Like, I lost it and I gotta Give Native Americans. They would wear that shirt too. Ironically. A Budweiser shirt with a horse and an eagle on it. That's. That is. That's what you wear when you lose all your clothes and you have to go to the truck stop to buy stuff.

[Byron]

Clydesdale chewed up that chipmunk and fed the eagle. It was.

[Brett Vesely]

I didn't see that part. I missed that part.

[Byron]

They cut it.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. Good. But yeah, the. If you, yeah if you, if your luggage is lost and like, well, there's a Walmart down the street, you're gonna come out of there with one of those shirts and a pair of red shorts and then you've got to wait for your luggage to get found. But don't yell at me about. I know black people and Latinos can be patriotic towards hillbilly stuff too but the majority of people are fat whites that like that. When I watch OP Live next and they're in Arkansas, the odds of a fat guy getting out of that Honda that smells like weed and Hazen are going to walk towards the cops camera and you're going to see that shirt. It's not happening. So don't yell at me about the outliers. We get it. That's what averages are. I know a guy who's got. All right, you know one guy. That's an average. That's. Of course there's. They're out there. Doesn't make the. Doesn't make the average change. That argument drives me nuts. It's 8:07. The word is music for 8 o'. Clock. And we're here in the middle of the Brady Report. It's brought to you by [e-mail] if you want to get your shady patio, shady and pretty and beautiful, put a big TV back there can sit and watch this glorious spring weather. Each minute ticks by. Each day is a little better than the one before. Phenomenal winter we've had so far. Spring's gonna be just as good.

And they're going to make your back patio front patio side, whatever you want to do to get shade look perfect. Add property value in the Meantime. All Pro Shade.com Brady reported Good Monday.

[Byron]

Morning to You Phoenix.

[Brett Vesely]

Hello, world. Hi.

[Byron]

Happy National Pizza Day again.

[Brett Vesely]

He does those a lot.

[Byron]

Well, this is pizza in general.

[Brett Vesely]

That sounds pepperoni, right?

[Byron]

Brad's got it. Yeah.

[Brett Vesely]

See? Just got a text from Winston and National Poop Day. Winston, my black friend says I ain't wearing it. Of course not. Thank you, Winston. Of course not. I would laugh hysterically. What are you, a fat white? I would say to him, why are you wearing a fat white man shirt? I don't, I don't expect you to wear.

[Byron]

National Poop Day because it's day after Super Bowl. Toilets are getting worked extra.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. Weren't they getting worked chicken wings? Look at that. Somebody has superimposed me with wings on the back of a horse.

[John]

That's the one from the ad.

[Brett Vesely]

I think that is. Well, because when the eagle spreads its wings, it's like, oh my God, he absorbed it. And it's a Pegasus now. And then the eagle shoots off his back. I'm like, ah, yeehaw. I literally think I yelled yeehaw.

[John]

And then do you think they paid extra for the in game shot of the eagle on the field?

[Brett Vesely]

So good. Oh, man, patriotism is for everybody. But let's be honest, the fat southern whites, they do it different. They wear the. They cut the sleeves off of it, but they wear the gear.

[Byron]

The term super bowl for the football game became a term on which game?

[Brett Vesely]

I was three.

[Byron]

Three, the name of 1969. Other proposed names included World Series of Football, the ultimate bowl and Premier Bowl.

[Brett Vesely]

Prior to that was the AFC NFC championship. Visit Holmberg's morning sickness online at 98kupd.com.

[Brett Vesely]

Holmberg's Morning Sickness.

[Byron]

The term bull refers to the bowl of seats of stadium.

[Brett Vesely]

Yep.

[Byron]

But it was used by college football in 1902. First it was the east west tournament game in Pasadena, which later became the Rose Bowl.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah.

[Byron]

The other fun fact, first major headliner in the Super Bowl. We talked might have mentioned it last week.

[John]

Michael Jackson wasn't.

[Byron]

Was in 1991. It was not Michael Jackson, which.

[Brett Vesely]

It's the first super bowl halftime. It was 94.

[John]

Jesus. You know that one?

[Brett Vesely]

Well, because it was here and I had to sit through it. And I remember there was a girl I liked at Tony Romas whose mom was one of the dancers. And I actually went to her house. No, no, not a good way. They had these weird like flag waving dancers and everybody could volunteer. And this girl named Elizabeth's mom was of. And I went over to her house. I struck out.

[Byron]

Michael, I believe, was 93.

[Brett Vesely]

He was up there. The first. Yeah, I don't remember the first one.

[Byron]

1991 was New Kids on the Block.

[Brett Vesely]

Oh yeah. But I went over the house and her mom was dressed in this weird kind of pinkish orange. It looked like like Buddhist monk clothes. Like it's a big gown. And she's in the backyard and she's doing these dance moves by herself. Eventually mom look not as good as her daughter, I'll tell you that. She had a high bar to set because Elizabeth was hot. Yeah. So I went in the backyard. I'm like, what are you doing? She's like, I'm practicing for the hat. I'm part of the halftime show. I'm like, wow. All you had to do is show up at MCC and you could be in it and like a whole bunch of. They took volunteers and it was bad. Yeah, that was some. Yeah, it was kind of that pink orange.

[John]

Rockin Country Sunday is what they.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. I don't know what the outfit was, but she had a dance.

[John]

It wasn't that.

[Brett Vesely]

Nope. It was the orange one. I remember it being more flowing. I guess it was kind of country, but it was. Everybody was dressed the same color as Patrick from spongebob. And she had that on.

[John]

It's like an odd peachy Fleshy.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. And then she spinning around the backyard and I think she had a flag. She had to raise the flag at one point. And then Diana Ross came out and did something. It was weird. Struck out with her daughter in a huge way. Huge way.

[Byron]

The term vague posting is trending.

[Brett Vesely]

Oh, those are bigger girls. Black was at that, too. I don't remember that. That's the one here you're showing us the 95.

[Byron]

What?

[John]

It says 94.

[Brett Vesely]

Well, that's 94. 95 was the.

[John]

Oh, that's right.

[Brett Vesely]

The Steelers.

[John]

That's the wrong one then. So let me.

[Brett Vesely]

But it was the same colors. It was the weird pink. I just didn't remember it being hillbilly.

[Byron]

So the term vague posting.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah.

[Byron]

Is trending. Vague postings. When you share something that's intentionally vague so you might seem like you're making a point, but you're not. Like, you say Sabrina Carpenter was right. Just to drive clicks and make people say what? What do you think?

[Brett Vesely]

It's what we're saying right. About women a long time ago. Started using Facebook when it first my face hurts a little from the thing. And it made everybody go, what are you talking about? It's an attention grab. Worst day ever. Don't ask. Exactly. Shut up. Yeah, pack it in your ass.

[Byron]

Get the hell out of it.

[Brett Vesely]

People like that. Pack it in your ass. That's a new one. Yeah, but that's a great response to I'm having a bad day. Don't ask. Pack it in your ass. You're the worst therapist I've ever been to.

[Byron]

Some dumb Dumb in New Jersey needs a new truck after he did donuts on a frozen lake and fell through the ice. Someone called 911 last week after they saw the roof of the truck sticking out of the ice. Rest of it was submerged.

[Brett Vesely]

That's never good.

[Byron]

It happened near Eagleswood, New Jersey, just up the coast from Atlantic City.

[Brett Vesely]

That's. Yeah. It's never good to have you.

[Byron]

Turns out someone got it on video. It was dark, but you can see the truck spinning around. Then it stops.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. That wasn't one. Toledo just found the Super Bowl 30 halftime show. They're in the weird flowing gowns, like. Like Buddhist. I guess it was more orange. I thought it was pink. Was pink on it.

[John]

It's got multicolored, I guess.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. That was a terrible.

[John]

Using the colors of the logo. Is that it?

[Brett Vesely]

It was just an awful halftime show.

[Byron]

Robert Richards, 35 years old. He was arrested by the Thames Valley Police on May 30, 2020. 5. He was in court and he's found guilty of murdering his partner, Rachel Vaughn. And his main concern was being arrested that he was going to miss the release of Grand Theft Auto 6.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah.

[Byron]

Since he's gonna be spending time in.

[Brett Vesely]

Prison, he's coming out in October.

[Byron]

Yeah.

[Brett Vesely]

Well, on good behavior, maybe they'll pop you out a little early and get there by Christmas, but we'll all be done with it by then. I can't wait. Are they coming out with a new PlayStation for that as well? They're gonna get PlayStation 6 when Grand Theft Auto comes, so I think it's still on five. Yeah, they better not because I never got the five because I didn't want to play any more games on it. So I don't like. There's one game I like and it's Grand Theft Auto and then the second one is Red Dead Redemption and iced both of those on the three. When's a four? When is that? Do they we have a release date yet for GTA or. No, I think it's October next November. What? No, it's this coming. Don't say next. That's 2027. It's this year. It's this year, Richard. Don't. Don't. All right, then I won't tell you it's this year. Now tell us. It's 2026.

[John]

November 19th.

[Brett Vesely]

Of this year. Yeah. All right.

[John]

Not next November because it was supposed to be May.

[Brett Vesely]

Have to shut up. It's. No, it's supposed to be May of this year and they moved it to October. Now it's November, so it could still go, but right now. Jesus Christ, I'm going to jump over this thing and kill him. I know he's having a good day, but.

[Byron]

Angry Orchard is doing a little promo for Valentine's Day coming up. You can trade your ex's junk in for cash before Valentine's.

[John]

Isn't it illegal to steal their stuff and sell it?

[Brett Vesely]

Junk meaning his stuff or his penis clothing?

[Byron]

Oh, anything. What they're going to do is send you a postage paid package envelope that you can put the stuff in there, send it to Angry Orchard. In exchange, they'll send you some swag.

[Brett Vesely]

So basically you whatever they left at your house after you broke up. Yeah, we'll spring cleaning and then they'll donate it. That's nice. To Africa.

[Byron]

Yeah. The other one is Natty Light. They got a promo going that's they've released a new line of lawnmower lingerie. Oh, you drape your riding mower with this Lingerie.

[Brett Vesely]

It's different than what I expected.

[Byron]

You get a pack of Natty Light.

[Brett Vesely]

All right, if you want to email me again Jayo. About who's gonna like that. What in the hell? It's just.

[Byron]

It's like a trace. Lacy Shaw over the parachutes.

[John]

That's all they see is a sheet. I don't see lingerie in there.

[Brett Vesely]

I have a cover for my riding mower. And it's. It's black. I guess it kind of looks dominatrix kind of thing. It's just. But. Huh.

[Byron]

Silk.

[Brett Vesely]

That's not patriotic. Well, they know it ain't Eagle. Flying off my lawnmower would be better. Yeah. You get a free case of Natty Light, and you've dressed up your lawnmower and laundry. You're telling me Mexicans are doing that? No. That's a white guy thing.

[Byron]

You pull that lingerie off, cut the grass.

[Brett Vesely]

Don't see my lawnmower that way.

[John]

Texter wants to jump back a little bit. John, I can't let this go. You're being pretty vague when you say struck out in a big way. I think that failure is pretty epic.

[Brett Vesely]

It wasn't good. She came over to my. Here. Here's the story. Elizabeth was gorgeous. And I mean, like, drop dead. Couldn't figure out how come she kept wanting to be around me. Yes, son. Like, okay, and let's go to lunch. I'm like, all right. And so we go to lunch. Now I'm 22 and she's 16. So I went to her house, and she took me to her house, introduced me to her mom and stuff. I don't know what's going on here. And then. So went back to my house. And that's the one where my mom came home and said, what are you doing? Come here. And like, what? She goes, get her out of my house. I'm like, what? She goes, you're gonna get us sued. Because she assumed I'd boned her already. But so I had to tell her I have to leave because. And I was dumb. My mom thinks you're gonna sue. For what? I don't know. I guess she's not wrong. We have to leave. It's my mom's house.

[Byron]

It's complicated.

[Brett Vesely]

So then when I took her back to the house, I made a really strange move. Head to the her. Hand to the back of the head, kind of pull in and got the resistance. And there was that weird kind of face. Fight for a second. And then. Okay. And had a good time. Next time I saw her was like 10 years later and we had a little reunion and she looked even better. She had some bolt ons, which she didn't need, but she put in Gorgeous Girl and we sat down at a table and she, she says to me, so what have you been up to? This, that. And I'm like, I don't know. What about you? And she goes, oh, I work in this job here. And she goes, it's good except for the N words. And I'm like, oh my God. And I'm like, shut up. We're in public. Like, oh my God, she's a racist. Like a real bad one. She look good under her sheets and hood or what? I mean, did she look good under the sheets? I mean, honestly, even a black guy would have been like, I can tolerate this. Like, it's not that bad. I couldn't believe she said it though. We were in a restaurant and I thought she was like testing me. And I'm like, what the. What did you just say? She was, yes, we're at Black Angus.

[Byron]

Knock it off.

[Brett Vesely]

Say that. And she's like, oh, I just can't take it. She was, she meant it like, oh, man, you went full on racist over the last few years. Visit Holmberg's morning sickness online at 98kupd.com home morning sickness. And I giggled hysterically because I couldn't believe someone had that kind of courage. I paid for the chicken wings and we left. Of course she had chicken wings. Well, that doesn't mean anything. I was, I had them too. But she was still hot enough to be like, all right, you're allowed one of those. Keep it up. Though. She did. And it was like, I can't. Like, I'm going to get spotted. This is trouble.

[Byron]

Got a couple of brilliant videos. First one is dropping a 2200 pounds dry ice cube into the water.

[Brett Vesely]

Cool.

[Byron]

I think it's. I don't think this is AI all.

[Brett Vesely]

Right, this is dry ice in a, in a salt water or just on.

[Byron]

The back of a plane. So they have it elevated and they bomb. They basically just drop.

[Brett Vesely]

They bomb the sea with a dry ice bomb. Now this has to be AI because the camera's following it and then goes back multiple angles. How did you fall for this?

[Byron]

They can have multiple angles and set.

[Brett Vesely]

It up to see like there's a guy standing on a plane. What is wrong with you? Oh, I fear for the future. That's.

[Byron]

The guy could have jumped out with it and filmed it in two different.

[Brett Vesely]

Two different cameras that, like Red Bull.

[John]

Pays a Lot of guys to do stunts. I don't know anybody that's going to.

[Brett Vesely]

Try and do that one holds. Look. That's going to be a tough one. There's a lot of different looks at this. Maybe it's real, but I'm. I was like spielber as a film crew up. That looks pretty. And why'd you have to drop it from a plane to find that out? Like, yeah, could just roll it off the piers, right?

[Byron]

Next one's a tough fall. Lady on a boat.

[Brett Vesely]

She's getting into or out of a boat and she. Oh, she misses by a mile and goes between the boat and the pier. Holy smokes.

[Byron]

Pulling it into the pier.

[Brett Vesely]

She's trying to get on the pier. She's. She's been charged with the rope over the edge of the pier to pull the boat in. And the husband's like, just step over all way too big. I step. Oh, she's down. She smashes face into the bo. And then immediately starts crying.

[Byron]

Maybe you sell this boat.

[Brett Vesely]

Remember. Remember when you said you don't need a man? Look who's pulling you out of the water. She's in her thong, though. I got to give her credit for keeping it together as best as she. Well, never mind. She turned around. That's pretty bad. That is not a thong body. One piece. Oh, yeah. Get one piece.

[John]

What was the breath packing in your ass?

[Brett Vesely]

Packing in your ass? Go to this. She packed a lot. Go to that. Everything but water store and get yourself a bigger bikini.

[Byron]

We might have done this one before. This guy gets on a pallet of slump blocks.

[Brett Vesely]

I don't know. I don't remember it. Oh, slump blocks. Being lifted up by a crane. And. Oh, he's riding along on the crane ride of slump block. And it spins a little bit and he's going up and it's going a little bit. This looks pretty good so far. There's a. Oh, he hits a wire. He hits an electric wire.

[Byron]

Oh, no, he done.

[Brett Vesely]

Oh, they lifted that dude right into electric wires. That's a murder. Didn't like working with him, man. That was bad.

[Byron]

Last one's for the Olympics. Guy practicing a jump. He's not even for the Olympics. It's probably just a amateur skier going.

[Brett Vesely]

Over a little rain.

[Byron]

He knows what he's doing till the landing.

[Brett Vesely]

Lindsay Von's it. That's a tr. Oh, he's good. He's Olympic quality. And then just overshoots his last flip. Almost have the triple Lindy down.

[Byron]

Good sound on it.

[Brett Vesely]

All right. Fired up. I broke my. All right. He busted his back. All right. What do you mean by that? You broke.

[Byron]

Back is broken.

[Brett Vesely]

What why do they do when they do that spinal. Here we go. 1, 2, 3, 4 back flips. And then he tries to go for a fifth, and it's too late, and he lands directly on his back. And like Mike says, he broke his back.

[Byron]

What part of it.

[Brett Vesely]

The spinal. All right, next.

[Byron]

That's it.

[Brett Vesely]

All right, Brett, what do you got? I'm real light today. We'll knock him out. Yeah. Somebody just said this coming November is the next November. Therefore the next November. If you're in November, you can say next November, isn't it this November. Next November would be 2027. This November is 2026.

[John]

Yeah.

[Brett Vesely]

Last November is 2025. This November is the one that's coming next November is next year. Although it is technically the next November. Very confusing. And why did you do that? James, knock it off. You know what I meant? This was just dumb. All right, Girl reporting in there, all right, I do this all the time. There's a crippled guy walking behind her, and then they put her to the feet. I have. Thriller was at the open.

[Byron]

Look at that.

[Brett Vesely]

Walking around the open, crippled. And then you add a beat to it and it looks like a dance. It's why Thriller has a song, because Thriller's natural gate is to the beat of the song. All right, next. This is. I heard this is, like, one of the worst jobs in the world. Changing those lights at the top of towers. Oh, yeah. Sitting up top. He's changing one of those red lights at the top of a broadcast tower. Oh, and he gets hit by lightning. Oh, my God. Is this real? Why would you do that in a storm? I don't know. I guess you have to, right? I guess.

[John]

Say, he looked like he made it.

[Brett Vesely]

Yeah. Is that one of our engineers? By the way, wherever there's an engineer that does that, within about 500ft, there's. There's a. Usually a young Thai boy. There isn't an engineer out there that doesn't have a. Some small, young. And you know why I found this out later? Because they can cram them into spaces. It's true. Well, not like. Well, and maybe that's true, but they always have, like, they on call. Every engineer that does that work has a young, small Asian nearby. And they crack. They crash them up into small spaces to go get wires and stuff.

[Byron]

Who's ours?

[Brett Vesely]

I don't know. We haven't met him yet. But, you know, our guy isn't he's got a house in the back of his car. He keeps him in there. I'm convinced of it. There's never. You and I both. Super queen. Super queen. Had one guys that we worked with at the other one. Like, he paraded him. Or like, I'm like, how old is that kid? He's like, He's 15. I'm like, that's not better. Because I thought he was 8, but he's still underage and you cram him in stuff. No, he's my assistant. And I'm like, you can't have 15 year old assistants. And they jam him into real small spaces. When I had that one dude that did all the wiring at my house, Remember Eric? And he had that Wade. And Wade would get in the attic and walk. You could hear him up there because he was like a foot tall. There was nothing to him. And then he'd go into corners of attic space that your hand wouldn't fit in. And he'd live there for like hours and just do wiring. They all have one or they're small because we had Mike here. Remember Melo? Yeah. Well, he was just a little person. Yeah. He didn't need. Yeah, he kind of covered both bills there. Yeah. But was he willing to get into the small spaces?

[Byron]

I don't know.

[Brett Vesely]

Yes, he. Yeah, he fought back on everything. You gonna climb up in there? No, I don't think so. Yes. Why are you so angry at everything? All right, next. There's a lady vaping and dancing. She's large. Oh, she. Oh, something's coming through the house. Something's coming through the house. It's a golf cart. And a little kid is driving a golf cart right through the glass and towing tons of stuff. So does that say tamales on the head? Oh, my dear God.

[Byron]

It's James.

[Brett Vesely]

It became. Does it say James? Okay, may say tamales. Well, there is a leaf blower up there and everything. It became the most racist thing I've ever seen. A Mexican lady dancing. And then through her sliding glass door comes a golf cart filled with lawn supplies. And this one, they said, could have been a backup for Bad Bunny if he didn't show up yesterday. Oh, no, not this one. Hang on. All right, that one's dumb. Bad bunnies. Okay, this is a skinny person in real tight shorts. Oh, God. Something. That's the creepiest thing I've ever seen. That's the entertainment on Toledo's next vacation. That's all we got. Put that on Facebook. Put that all over Instagram for our Pages. My God. I've never seen anything like that. Yikes.

[John]

John, I have to go against your argument because you wouldn't say the house next door is two houses down.

[Brett Vesely]

No, I just say next door.

[John]

Right.

[Brett Vesely]

But it is the next door.

[Byron]

Right.

[Brett Vesely]

But if. Yeah.

[John]

I don't know.

[Brett Vesely]

It's hard. There's a reason to get on this. Jo says we call them IBMs. John. Itty bitty Mexicans. We all have one. You have to. There's those tight little crawl spaces. You got to shove those people in there. They've got them.

[John]

Brady's gonna own that IBM for the next 10 years.

[Brett Vesely]

He already owns something else. He's got to own an IBM too. Okay. It's 8:30.

[John]

Erases your pool guy.

[Brett Vesely]

You do yourself.

[Byron]

He's America.
