We're not doing it again. It's not McFeely's morning sickness this morning. It's Brady's morning cup.
Brady
That's right.
Brett Vesely
So good morning to everybody. Yeah, just kind of threw myself back into it again. We were talking to Holmberg on Friday. And he was like, dude, I don't think I can do it. I don't think I can do it on Monday. Now, if you don't know already, John Holmberg had this retina surgery and he is face down, although he's upright now. Yeah, well, I don't know if he's upright all the time.
Brady
Partial. He's partial. Talk.
Dick Toledo
Yeah. And when he is, he's a hunchback because he's got to put his head down.
Brett Vesely
He still has to put his head down. Okay. So, yeah, the little bit that I talked to him yesterday, he was like, dude, this sucked. I mean, he just sounded miserable. Miserable this weekend. So poor John Holmberg, he's still at home. And you know what? We're just going to do this thing because, you know, when John's out, there's no reason why you guys shouldn't come in. Good morning, Bretzky. Oh, there's no microphone.
Eric
Hello.
Brett Vesely
I'm sorry.
Larry McFeely
Jesus Christ. I'm going home.
Brett Vesely
I didn't know that that was mic number five over there.
Dick Toledo
Disrespected.
Brett Vesely
Sorry. How was your weekend, everybody?
Brady
Well, you know what? I was just saying, talking to John yesterday morning, because the timing, I'm like, are you watching the USA men's hockey? You know, I missed it. I got a text, you know, from a buddy like, you watching it this morning? Then it goes into overtime and we end up winning. And the place, it wasn't like the 1980 Miracle on Ice, but it's been since then.
Dick Toledo
It was 46 years to the day, right?
Brett Vesely
Yeah. Wow.
Dick Toledo
How early was it on?
Brady
It was on the morning or something, wasn't it? Yeah, it started at 6 and then
Larry McFeely
ended around 8 because Mathia had people at the bar there watching at 6 in the morning.
Brett Vesely
Wow.
Larry McFeely
Really got it for. Okay.
Brady
It was kind of cool just to see the, the. The viral part of it just take off where all these bars that had been watching it or, you know, where, you know, it was kind of patriotic in a way that for USA to pull it off. I didn't realize it was that long. 46 years.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Did Matthiah open up for the curling? The USA versus Canada?
Larry McFeely
No, she's open at six. Anyway. But, yeah, so they were there. But I. But that curling thing, I don't really understand it, but I sat there and watched it for two and a half goddamn hours. I'm like, what is this?
Brett Vesely
I don't even know how they win.
Larry McFeely
Finally they throw the flag up.
Brett Vesely
I'm like, all right, cool.
Brady
The hog line I love it.
Dick Toledo
Well, I kept looking at it like, cornhole rules.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Like, the. The more you get toward the center, the better you are. No, it's the one stone that's closest to the center wins the whole thing.
Brett Vesely
I don't understand that at all. Like, it does not make sense.
Dick Toledo
You can have five strategy, yellow and one red in the middle, and red wins.
Brett Vesely
How does that work?
Brady
And then sometimes they get two points. You know, you can sweep and.
Dick Toledo
I don't understand. And the hammer. What's the hammer?
Brady
Yeah, what is that? It's just a cool term. I have no idea, but it's probably what it is. It's the hammer stone, maybe. I don't know if it's one, but hammer is control.
Dick Toledo
Like the home.
Brett Vesely
The home.
Brady
He has the hammer.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
I don't know. The USA team had a bunch of Gilbert moms on it, though. Did you watch that? The woman's curling?
Brady
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
I was like, oh, there's Postino. Sponsored by right there on the patch. Nice.
Brett Vesely
Were they cute?
Larry McFeely
Were they cute? I mean, they were Gilbert moms. They were curlers.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
They weren't the ice skaters or women's volleyball or anything like that, but we
Brady
ended up finishing most golds that we've had in the Winter Olympics.
Brett Vesely
Is that so?
Brady
Yeah, 12 gold.
Dick Toledo
I didn't pay attention that. Because I just kept seeing how many we lost. We lost the skate, the skiing medals, you know, Michaela Shifrin lost everyone except the one slalom that she got.
Brady
So.
Dick Toledo
Man, I was thinking we were having a bad Olympics.
Brett Vesely
I didn't watch any of that.
Dick Toledo
You watch anything?
Brett Vesely
I didn't watch it.
Brady
Well, for the whole. The whole duration of the Olympics.
Brett Vesely
Most. Well, I saw the robot thing at the beginning with all the robot dancing.
Dick Toledo
Oh, at the opening ceremony?
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Oh, that was enough for me. I was like, robots, cool.
Dick Toledo
I figured you'd watch what is. I watched the Eiffel 55 or Eiffel. Whatever.
Brady
Blue.
Dick Toledo
I'm blue. That DJ did the closing ceremonies.
Brett Vesely
Really? Yeah. How was that throwback?
Dick Toledo
Well, he was just there for the one song, right? It was all right, Blue.
Brett Vesely
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Dick Toledo
Exactly.
Brett Vesely
Gosh.
Brady
The biathlon thing was kind of cool. That's where their cross country ski and then shoot. Mm. And just to see. I watched that. The men's event.
Dick Toledo
You see the Norwegian guy. I don't think we ever talked about it. The guy that won bronze, and then he immediately admits that he cheated on his girlfriend.
Larry McFeely
Nice.
Brett Vesely
What? Oh, yeah, nice.
Brady
He said, I. This is nothing.
Brett Vesely
Why would you even throw that out
Dick Toledo
there because he wanted her back.
Brady
He thought I published the biggest mistake of my life.
Larry McFeely
Really?
Brady
During the interview, he was just basically saying I made a.
Larry McFeely
What a puss.
Dick Toledo
Oh, he just got verbal. He just got verbal diarrhea, you know?
Brett Vesely
You know how many hotties he can get?
Dick Toledo
I love her.
Brett Vesely
What an idiot.
Dick Toledo
Oh, yeah, the moron.
Brady
Did they show what he.
Brett Vesely
What she looks like? She was.
Dick Toledo
She was pretty hot.
Larry McFeely
All right.
Brett Vesely
But man, gold medalist also.
Dick Toledo
They also posted bronze.
Eric
All bronze still.
Brett Vesely
You can get a lot of tail
Larry McFeely
still with bronze medal. So I'm in.
Dick Toledo
So they posted her gold medal.
Brady
Got away. That's what he said.
Dick Toledo
Yeah. She said no.
Larry McFeely
Really?
Brady
Oh, yeah.
Brett Vesely
She did good. So denied him in front of everybody.
Dick Toledo
Yeah, I'm not talking to anybody.
Larry McFeely
I'm going for the silver and gold. Screw you bronze.
Brady
Thought I'd profess my love for man the woman I lost because he cheated.
Larry McFeely
He just looks like a puss and.
Brady
Yep.
Larry McFeely
International tv. Unbelievable.
Brett Vesely
We had innings festival over the weekend.
Brady
And I went.
Brett Vesely
You did?
Brady
I did.
Brett Vesely
Okay. Is that why you were all right? Because I got a call from Brady on Saturday morning and he's like, I'm
Brady
at the front door of the building. Just pretty random. Buddy of mine called me, says, hey, I got an extra pass, a VIP. So we went there.
Brett Vesely
I.
Brady
Man, we drove by 30,000 people on that infield.
Brett Vesely
Really?
Brady
I mean, it is.
Dick Toledo
They. I've never seen Tempe beach park built up because Lisa and I drove by on the 202.
Brady
It is huge.
Dick Toledo
Yeah, they. They built it up. Not quite like 16, but they have different stands now that we've never seen at Tempe Beach Park. And they made it more of a bowl.
Brady
That's what I didn't realize either because I, you know, I didn't. I haven't gone in the past, but they said, you know, this year they had these side stands. VIP section had its own stands. And then it had a platinum package that had like. It was two story. That looked very much like the 17 Bay Club at the Waste Management open.
Larry McFeely
How much were those tickets?
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
So the VIP, as I understand, were 600 each.
Brett Vesely
Holy crap.
Larry McFeely
And then per day for the. For the festival.
Brady
A day.
Brett Vesely
Wow.
Brady
And so you got in there and you have your VIP section. It's a lot like on a talking stick.
Brett Vesely
You got a.
Brady
Your own bar, courtyard, but nothing.
Dick Toledo
You.
Brady
You still pay for the food and drinks. Now they did give out smaller drinks like Liquid Death waters. They did have Michelob Ultra and some other small cocktails. But for the bigger Size cocktails you still paid cash for.
Brett Vesely
And how much was the drink?
Brady
16 bucks for, you know, beer, thimble, 20 bucks. Basically a drink. So then you had side stands for the vip and then the VIP area also had a standing area just to the side of the. In front of the stage. Platinum was right in the very front section.
Larry McFeely
Wow.
Brady
And those, I guess, went either 800 or a thousand maybe something like that.
Dick Toledo
You went on Saturday or.
Brady
I went Saturday. And I only. I saw two bands. The last two. Cajun elephants and 21 pilots.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. Is that what Kirby wanted to see? Yeah, of course.
Dick Toledo
I would have thought you'd have gone yesterday and saw Public Enemy.
Larry McFeely
That's what I wanted to go see,
Brett Vesely
and that's what I thought of. I was like, I wonder if Brett is over there.
Larry McFeely
I wanted to, but I am not going to fight those crowds down there.
Dick Toledo
But how did you get there?
Brady
So my morning cupped in there almost.
Eric
I knew it.
Brady
Ronnie's aunt. How you doing? Her cousin lives in the senior home, Mirabella, on a mil University. So we just guest parked there.
Brett Vesely
Nice.
Brady
Walked across basically a block and to the entrance right there.
Brett Vesely
And was the parking even at the senior center? Was it. Was it pretty loaded up?
Brady
No, but the guys knew, like, I'm here to visit. Yeah, I'm here to visit Jane Neuheisel. Like, huh.
Brett Vesely
Sure, sure.
Brady
And so. And I had to make sure I got. What time do you guys, you know, close? He goes, we'll close at 10, but just come to the front desk if we're not there, your key will be up front there. And wow. No problem.
Brett Vesely
That's like when Metallica was here last time and I went with my mom. Brought the handicap sign. Oh, that's nice. Yep.
Dick Toledo
See, Lisa's mom's got one of those and she has it in her purse. So I'm like, all right, yeah, we'll
Eric
go get your mom.
Dick Toledo
Yep, we'll go get your mom.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
But. Yeah, right up front.
Brady
You know when that the band was done. Saturday, just zombie walk the sea of people.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
Mill. That was. It was like the old days when you see the university just rock downtown. It was just had a good energy, good buzz.
Brett Vesely
And it was Blink 182 and Sublime. Yesterday.
Brady
Yesterday. Yeah, like.
Dick Toledo
But sublime and public Sublime without Rome.
Brett Vesely
Right, right.
Dick Toledo
Like, he's no longer like, it's his kid.
Larry McFeely
Now it's Bradley's kid.
Dick Toledo
Oh, yeah. He's in the family again.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Oh, okay.
Brett Vesely
Keep it in the family.
Dick Toledo
How is he?
Brett Vesely
I don't know. Oh, I didn't Go.
Larry McFeely
Oh, yeah.
Dick Toledo
Well, I thought you.
Brady
You might know there was a. Oh,
Brett Vesely
as far as everybody says, it's great.
Dick Toledo
Okay.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
Jared Leto kind of moment. Remember when we had that down there
Brett Vesely
at the Tempe beach park?
Brady
And he climbed the scaffolding.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
And the stage, the drummer for Tournament Pilots climbed even higher, and they had a drum set up on top of this tower probably 40, 50ft up. And he played a couple of songs up there and then came down there. And then they. They work the crowd. They go all over the place.
Brett Vesely
Speaking of that, I mean, that just reminds me, that was such a weird experience when we did those Tempe Town Lake shows, those original shows out there. And we had 30 seconds to Mars and Jared Lettuce out there. And remember, I brought. It was really.
Brady
When I was. I mean, walking the grounds, I'm like, this thing is like, multiply that times three. That's how.
Brett Vesely
Right, right, right, right. But that show, it was so strange because that show, it was really early on in 30 seconds from our career, and Jared Leto didn't want everybody knowing it was Jared Leto.
Brady
That's right. He.
Brett Vesely
He didn't want to be jumped up on stage and. And, you know, like, did. Not knowing that I jumped up on stage.
Dick Toledo
They didn't tell you before?
Brett Vesely
No. 30 Seconds to Mars, and coming up, Jared Leto from 30. And everybody's screaming and they're going crazy. And I walked back. No, he.
Larry McFeely
He.
Brett Vesely
All of a sudden, I keep. Jared Leto would like to talk to you. Jared Leto would like to talk to you.
Larry McFeely
And you're walking.
Brett Vesely
All right, I'm in. So he walks up and he puts his arm around me, and I was like, oh, my God. Oh, what's going on, man? What's happening? And so we started kind of walking away from the stage together with his arm around me, and he's like, hey, dude, I just wanted to let you know I have been doing shows for the last. I don't know, 10 months or whatever, and.
Larry McFeely
And no one.
Brett Vesely
No one has done what you just did. I'd appreciate it if you don't do that again. Okay? And I was like, dude, I'm so sorry. I had no idea. That was like. I didn't realize that this was, like, a big secret that you're in the band. I'm trying to keep it on the merit of my music. I'm trying to keep it on the merit of my. You know, what I do.
Larry McFeely
Okay, Mozart, relax.
Brett Vesely
You're 30 seconds to end up being next album. Jared Leto. Jared Leto. The Actor Jared Leto.
Dick Toledo
We need to sell some CDs.
Brett Vesely
Absolutely. Yep. It changed quickly.
Dick Toledo
So last year it was two weekends in a row because I had said to you on Friday, who's.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Brady
Right.
Brett Vesely
Who's the second weekend and country last.
Brady
The.
Larry McFeely
The next weekend or something.
Dick Toledo
I thought it was.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
And so I think this year it's only one weekend.
Brett Vesely
It is. Yeah. Yeah. That was it just yesterday.
Brady
It just keeps growing. I. And that blows me away as far as, like the VIP section, you know, there must be, I don't know, 2,000 of those people in the VIP side of it. And then you have the platinum and then just general tickets, you know, aren't cheap.
Dick Toledo
Right.
Brady
And it is packed.
Dick Toledo
I'm sure it was during the day, but was there baseball related stuff? Because, like, I know there's a bunch
Brady
of people were in. I mean, it is kind of baseball fee, right?
Dick Toledo
Well, they had baseball players there. Yeah.
Larry McFeely
Like Jake Peavey will show up and
Brett Vesely
a bunch of the other guys.
Brady
Yeah, Yeah. I didn't know. I noticed a lot of people wearing, you know, their spring training gear.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brady
But other than that, I noticed a pretty big native population.
Brett Vesely
Really?
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
How about that?
Larry McFeely
Was Slayer guest? Guest.
Brady
That's what I was saying. I'm like, is it 21 pilots?
Dick Toledo
Is it the backfires? Katie Turner, Vertical Horizon, Deer Tick.
Brady
That was the other one. That was Saturday. I didn't see him, but Vertical Horizon, like, holy.
Larry McFeely
One song, right? Yeah, One song is all I remember from them.
Brady
Okay. Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Silver Sun Pickups, Dashboard Confessional, the Fray, Lord Huron. He's listed thirds or they're listed third.
Brett Vesely
Sorry, don't know.
Dick Toledo
I have no idea who that.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
When I walked in, though, it was kind of cool because there's about four or five Tempe Police guys, and I'm not thinking anything walk up. Hey, big fan of the show.
Brett Vesely
Really?
Brady
Really, like.
Dick Toledo
All right.
Brady
I feel safe.
Larry McFeely
No good. Apparently, country is this weekend coming up.
Brett Vesely
Oh, it is. Continues on.
Larry McFeely
So for anybody that cares. Not me, Luke. Bryan Dirks, Bentley Brothers, Osborne, Kane Brown. Hardy.
Brett Vesely
Hardy. Shaboozy. Dude. Hardy puts on such a good show. He really does. And. Yeah, and he's. He is a total rocker.
Dick Toledo
Is he like a musician or does he just sing like.
Brett Vesely
No, he plays musician.
Brady
He does.
Brett Vesely
Musician. Yeah. And it's a big pyrotechnic show and all that kind of stuff, too.
Brady
Well, yeah, the spread out to the setup, the main stage is, you know, is huge. And then there's a second stage. They would go back and forth. You couldn't even Hear like when the. When the one. The main stage stopped.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
And it took about 45 minutes or an hour before the 21 pilots comes on, you know, because they're setting up. You couldn't hear the second stage going. That's how far it was separated.
Brett Vesely
Wow.
Larry McFeely
My problem with some of these festivals is it's like, yeah, okay, my favorite band's playing. But there's so many bands on the bill. You get a half hour set, maybe, maybe 40 minutes.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
You don't get the full pyro. You don't get the full show. It's just they're there to make their money.
Dick Toledo
From the last.
Larry McFeely
Right.
Brady
Yeah, the last two. Well, like I said, Cage the Elephant and. Which I knew maybe, like, I recognize probably four. Four songs.
Brett Vesely
The elephant.
Brady
Yeah. I'm like, oh, okay, that's Cage the Elephant. The same thing with, you know, 21 pilots at. At first. But that's the third time I've seen them.
Brett Vesely
Right. 21 pilots is great. They really are.
Brady
They are. But there was a lot of effects, pyro and stuff on both those bands, which surprised me. And then as far as, you know, doing the crowd surf deal and it was kind of neat.
Brett Vesely
I made you guys some bagels.
Brady
Nice.
Brett Vesely
Yesterday I ate.
Larry McFeely
All right, let's go to breaks.
Brett Vesely

Dick Toledo
Hey, hey, no problem.
Larry McFeely
John never brings us bagels.
Brett Vesely
It's true. John's probably, like, gonna be a little upset that I had some bagels here and he didn't get any.
Dick Toledo
He'd be. He'd be happy with anything at this point after his week. Yeah, any. Anything to change his routine.
Brett Vesely
Poor guy. I did plenty of exercising this weekend and in his honor. In his honor. I mean, I just.
Brady
I was thinking.
Brett Vesely
Because I was thinking to myself, you know, going on walks and stuff, and I was thinking, like, here's a guy that is, like, so active. I mean, so active. Basketball, boxing, you know, like, he's constantly going self defense, you know, everything that he does and he is stuck. He's just stuck there. And I would send these little texts like, life's still sucking for you. Yep. Yep.
Dick Toledo
I asked him yesterday. I'm like, I use the colloquial we. I'm like, hey, how we feeling?
Brady
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Meh.
Brett Vesely
Yep.
Dick Toledo
Like the ad that's going out right now. Meh.
Brett Vesely
And that is so not John to get those right types of responses from him. I mean, usually you get something silly
Dick Toledo
or one word responses are rare from him.
Brett Vesely
Poor guy.
Larry McFeely
Like I was talking about earlier, off here, I'm like, what kind of drugs you on, man? You didn't give me any.
Brett Vesely
Because there's no pain.
Larry McFeely
It's just he has to keep his head down.
Dick Toledo
That's no pain. Just. Just red. In his vision.
Larry McFeely
That picture he showed us is like.
Brett Vesely
It's funny. You and I did the same thing. Yeah, the exact same thing. I'm like, what kind of drugs did you get?
Eric
Yeah, exactly. What'd you get, man?
Brett Vesely
Tell me about the pills. Nope, nothing.
Brady
It's One thing, when you go home and you're like, I. I look forward to not doing anything now. You just. You don't have that choice. You. You literally have to do nothing.
Larry McFeely
Right.
Brett Vesely
You're stuck.
Brady
Yeah. It's not like he's got something about that.
Brett Vesely
Both, like a massage table where he's sticking his face through, and then he's got, like, something set up on the couch where there's, like, a pillow that he hangs his head over.
Dick Toledo
Yeah. That he can kind of lean on a little bit is what he kind of was saying.
Brett Vesely
And I guess he was also doing the wrong drops, too. Like, he was. I guess he has, like, two sets of drops, and he was.
Dick Toledo
One was antibiotic.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Dick Toledo
And the other one is like a cleaning or just a moisturizing one or something like that. And so he was using those without getting the antibiotics in.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Dick Toledo
And if he got an infection in his eye, it's game over.
Brett Vesely
Right. And so I guess on Friday, he had hit up the doctor and was like, I made a mistake. Oops. And the doctor was like, this happens all the time. Don't worry about it. Just as long as it's not infected. Does it feel infected? No. So hopefully it's not everybody on text.
Dick Toledo
No, he's not fired.
Brett Vesely
No.
Dick Toledo
Larry, be honest. You let him go.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. That was the next big.
Larry McFeely
We got a few of those emails over the week.
Brett Vesely
Really? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Really?
Brady
Yes.
Brett Vesely
Huh. How about that should have been Larry.
Brady
Well, you hear about other people in the industry.
Brett Vesely
You hear so and so.
Dick Toledo
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Brady
Just talked about one this morning for sure.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. And some of the texts that I. That I saw, some of the comments on the photos that we're posting online on social media, you're seeing. Didn't ask for this.
Larry McFeely
You know.
Brett Vesely
You know, you should. You should have just played Best of.
Dick Toledo
That's just.
Brett Vesely
Should have just been Best of not.
Dick Toledo
Ralphie Wiggin mosaid Simpson's carried Worst show ever.
Brett Vesely
You should have just played Best of.
Larry McFeely
Well, we talked.
Dick Toledo
Did you have to do that because
Brett Vesely
of the Nine Inch Nails promo code contest? You should have just made it Best of.
Larry McFeely
We talk about that all the time, though. Some people are just gonna to. Because, I mean, you know, we could say we have Metallica for. For you, and it's gonna be amazing.
Brett Vesely
Amphi. Nice, small venue.
Larry McFeely
Oh, you should have Slayer.
Eric
You know, I mean, like.
Brady
All right.
Brett Vesely
You guys don't have the balls to put Slayer. Yeah, there's.
Brady
There's one or two that do that. Do that on purpose, so.
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah.
Dick Toledo
Oh, there's definitely some trollers, but there's also just some unhappy effing people right out there that continue. Thank you for listening. Because you listen to us religiously.
Brett Vesely
Yep. But then there was something I saw where somebody said, I miss the days when it was just John and Brady alone. It's never, never been that way alone.
Larry McFeely
Not since day one.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, right. In fact, most people don't realize that it was John and Brady and a girl that were on the.
Dick Toledo
People ask me for those shows all the time, and they don't exist unless
Brady
you guys have them somewhere on cassette.
Brett Vesely
What was her name?
Brady
I think.
Brett Vesely
Wow. How about that? That you remember. And then we had Bo Duran.
Brady
Yep.
Brett Vesely
Boda.
Dick Toledo
And that's. I told you last week when I was playing a bunch of bow stuff. Is that what you guys used to call Brady? Bo, Like Bogan, Like.
Brady
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
He's a third person.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Brady
And Bo was kind of the news guy.
Brett Vesely
Right. And he was.
Brady
Yeah, he was doing promo.
Dick Toledo
Wasn't he doing, like, promo? He was doing Mark Randall's job for a little bit.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. Yeah, for sure. And then he let.
Eric
God let go of one of those situations.
Brett Vesely
One of those situations should have been Larry 20, 23 years ago. It should have been him. Anyways, what should we do for a wake up song today? You got any ideas?
Brady
I'm putting it together now. Brett's got an idea.
Larry McFeely
Stretch. I'm putting it together. Stretch.
Dick Toledo
Putting the list together.
Brett Vesely
So.
Brady
Stretch.
Brett Vesely
Stretch. Well, I'll tell you something else that we were talking about last week off the air, and that was Brady's big fat wedding. Now that would have been 2006.
Brady
June 6th, 2006.
Brett Vesely
So.
Brady
Wow.
Brett Vesely
So we're talking 20 years.
Dick Toledo
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Brady
Yep.
Brett Vesely
How about that? Congratulations on 20 years coming up. So the thing that was interesting to me is, you know, looking back at the photos and stuff, it was seether. This was at the celebrity theater. Yep. Seether. Static X. The band Signs of Betrayal.
Dick Toledo
That's the one. I always forget. I always. Because I knew we had a third band and I forgot we. We had the local guys do it.
Brady
And they technically were the ones that play played, you know, the entrance music. And they're kind of the house band.
Brett Vesely
That's right. That's right. That's right. And I don't remember much about Signs of Betrayal. The only thing that I remember about the band is there was a guy in the band named Skittles. That's the only reason. The only thing that I remember about that band is there was a guy in the band named Skittles was a drummer, wasn't he? I don't. I don't remember. I just remember his name was Skittles because I like Skittles.
Brady
Sorry, boys.
Dick Toledo
Yeah, memory slips.
Brady
Me and Wayne objected the wedding.
Brett Vesely
Yes, that's right. Wayne Static got up.
Brady
I mean, we asked him to do that and it's. I mean, he could have easily just said no.
Brett Vesely
Much fun. That was so cool. And you're the parents made the case, right? Karsha's bakery made the cake. And it was a beautiful cake. I have all these photos. I went through the photos over the weekend. In fact, I've got something else that we can play a little bit later on. We made a video that we played up on the large screens there at the celebrity theater. You guys had asked all of your comedian friends for marital advice. And so we put together this big compilation of this video. And I put. So, you know, back in the day, I don't even remember what. I was probably using imovie back in the day and piecing together all these different clips of marital device, marital advice from these different comedians and put it to like some tool music or something, whatever album came out in 2006, whatever one was then. And I've got that video. I pulled it over the weekend and I've got the video. I'm going to post the video. I'm also going to play the audio this morning. But just seeing Frank Caliendo, you were mentioning Joe Rogan.
Dick Toledo
I forgot that we.
Brett Vesely
Rogan, Chelsea Handler, Norm MacDonald, Harlan Williams. Harlan Williams. Like big names, really big names. The Joe Rogan thing blew me away when I saw him on there. I was like, oh, my gosh. We had Joe Rogan before he was Joe Rogan. Holy crap.
Brady
It was Fear Factor Rogan.
Brett Vesely
It was Fear Factor Rogan. It definitely was. And. And Caliendo, he just looks so good now. I mean, he really was heavy back then. I mean, I don't there any other
Dick Toledo
late comedians besides Norm in that video.
Brett Vesely
Bob Saget.
Dick Toledo
Bob Saget.
Brett Vesely
Bob Saget's in there too. So, yeah, we'll. We'll play that a little bit later on. It's good stuff. You know, today is national Tootsie Roll day. Yep, you do. Come on. Yeah, come on.
Brady
You already have that ready to go. Welcome to the morning.
Larry McFeely
I won't give you all the bouncing ball.
Brett Vesely
I won't give you all the trivia. Sorry, Excuse me. Brady's Morning.
Brady
You know what? This is over.
Brett Vesely
I bet you didn't have this.
Larry McFeely
Oh, if it's food related. I'll guarantee he does.
Dick Toledo
No, you came.
Brett Vesely
I sure did.
Brady
What'd you bring, ladies and gentlemen?
Brett Vesely
I brought a whole bag of Tootsie Rolls because I wanted to be the first to fill Brady's Honey pot. There.
Brady
Nice.
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah, it's ready. There you go.
Brady
So you know what? Now I'm curious. I want to hear some of this trivia.
Brett Vesely
Oh, okay.
Larry McFeely
You don't have it.
Brady
Fun facts. No, no, no, no.
Brett Vesely
I'm surprised. Yes.
Brady
Today.
Dick Toledo
He just says the day of. What day it is.
Brett Vesely
Today is National Tootsie Roll Day. And Leo Hirschfeld. Leo Hirschfeld, he created a game, he's a good one. In 1896 and named it after his five year old daughter, Clara, whom he affectionately called Tootsie. Oh, I thought that was a ringtone. Larry was playing sound effects behind it.
Brady
That's heaven.
Brett Vesely
The Tootsies falling in. It was marketed as the first individually wrapped penny candy that wouldn't melt in summer heat. Over 64 million Tootsie Rolls are produced daily. During World War II, Tootsie Rolls were included in GI rations because they provided quick energy and could withstand diverse climates. And again today on National Tootsie Roll Day, it will be added as the first candy to be filled in Brady's Honey's Honey Pot.
Larry McFeely
Wow.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. Is that enough?
Brady
They tumbled in there gloriously.
Dick Toledo
And no, that's not a euphemism. He actually has a honey pot.
Brett Vesely
Yes, he has the honey pot here that Holmberg gave him. And I was thinking to myself, we need to fill that thing.
Dick Toledo
How many fillings have been lost to
Brett Vesely
Tootsie Rolls over the years that it didn't say?
Larry McFeely
Yeah, my dentist loves. Oh, another crown. Here we go.
Brett Vesely
Yep.
Dick Toledo
Oh, it popped off.
Brady
No, unfortunately.
Brett Vesely
Was that enough of a stretch for you?
Larry McFeely
Stretch good.
Dick Toledo
All right.
Brady
Wake up.
Larry McFeely

Brett Vesely
That's right. And she was a porn star.
Brady
An adult. Yeah, yeah.
Brett Vesely
An adult film star.
Brady
Yes.
Brett Vesely
You can't say the word porn. She was an adult film star. And the very nice sad ending. Sad ending, but what a band.
Brady
Then the guys from CER last year, I had a pair of cargo shorts and they signed them. I have them in the randomly. And they basically threw a penis on the shorts.
Brett Vesely
Do they remember you? Like. Do you say stuff like, hey, you guys played my wedding? Do you remember that?
Brady
I did. I asked him, you know.
Brett Vesely
Right, right, right. Yeah, yeah, we did that.

Eric
It's John Holmberg here from the morning sickness. And it's time to talk about turf monsters. Az.com I have turf in my bed. Backyard. And the only regret I've got is that I did not do this sooner. I have turned my backyard into a playground. I got a putting green. I got a pitching green. I got a sport court. And I got loads of turf. I never have to worry about dying or looking bad or watering. You can do it too. If you can dream up a beautiful backyard, the gang over there at Turf Monsters can make it a reality. All you have to do is check them out. Turfmonstersaz.com come on down to the Ranch House Grill.
Dick Toledo

Brady
And there might be another band added to it.
Brett Vesely
There might be another band here. Added to it here soon enough. Waiting for the word. Waiting for the thumbs up. Speaking of thumbs up, is this one
Dick Toledo
that you're bringing to town? It's a band.
Brett Vesely
Yes.
Dick Toledo
Okay.
Brett Vesely
Well, yeah, I mean we'll, we'll, we'll see. We'll see. But speaking of bands and some big stuff going on, I can't tell you the all the details, but you know, we just did that Nine Inch Nails Suite that Feeds contest. That show is right around the corner. March 6th. We're going to be doing another promo code contest coming up here soon enough.
Dick Toledo
One that no one will tell us.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. And really, I hope I'm not here to announce it. I hope it's homework because he should be the guy to, to be bringing all this on. And that's going to be first thing Wednesday morning. So hoping that John comes back for that. John Holmberg, if you did not know, is out. He had this retina surgery and milking it, he's milking it. I, you know, again, I, I, I think I said this the other day. I have this feeling that he does these things specifically. So when he comes back, everybody goes, oh, thank God you're back. Thank God. It was so bad. It was so bad while you were gone. So bad. Thank God you're back. We love you, John.
Dick Toledo
He's, he's not going to buy that for a second.
Brett Vesely
No, no, you know what? And honestly, John, you know, all these years, like, how many surgeries has he had? We've seen hip surgeries, we've seen shoulder surgeries, both hips, both shoulders back back surgery. And he pushes it every single time. He pushes it. Lobotomy that he had his eyes, you
Dick Toledo
know, I mean, the, the surgery with Schwartz to correct his vision, to get rid of glasses.
Brett Vesely
Right. Which by the way, his eyes are fine from that.
Dick Toledo
Right.
Brett Vesely
Tired of hearing about that scenario. You should stop playing those Schwarz laser eye center commercials. John's at home with a bad eye from that.
Larry McFeely
And we've had enough face down, ass up comments. But my, but you're not original.
Brett Vesely
My point is, I'm going to take
Brady
advantage of it either.
Brett Vesely
My point is John has pushed it for all of those surgeries and all of those surgeries. He's come in, you know, when he's not supposed to. He's always come back early. And this time he was like, I, I just can't, I can't, I can't, I can't risk it. And I don't blame him. And I absolutely don't blame him.
Dick Toledo
Well, to his credit, this is one where he finally went. This is something that's, that's what I'm saying. The most serious.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, you know, so good for him for staying home and saying, I can't do it. Just don't put Larry on the air, whatever you do. So here we are.
Brady
Mark my words.
Brett Vesely
Hurry back.
Brady
Homerg.
Brett Vesely
It's Brady's Morning cup. And what's going on in the world? The hell is going on?
Dick Toledo
Well, all of our people in Phoenix that love going to rocky point, you're gonna have to put that on hold for a while. And if you're there, thanks, El Hetzer. You might be stuck there.
Brett Vesely
So you're hearing Shelter in place, but you're hearing actually from some KUPD listeners.
Dick Toledo
Well, the government said if you're an American in Mexico currently either on vacation or if you're spending time there, shelter in place. Because traveling as an American right now is risky. Because like Brett said, they're burning the whole thing down.
Larry McFeely
Oh, yeah. They're burning that asshole to the ground, man.
Brett Vesely
I thought maybe you heard from some of your RV friends.
Dick Toledo
I haven't heard from any that are there. Every. All of our RV friends that go there are here currently. And then our old neighbors who used to go down there and rent a house. They haven't gone in a while, but we were all trying to plan when we were going to go down there. That's been put on hold.
Brett Vesely
All of it's on hold.
Brady
It's interesting that they. That all this destruction is going on because that. That is, you know, a big part of the economy. Right. It's hurting their own people more than anything.
Brett Vesely
Sure.
Larry McFeely
Hence, why don't go there.
Dick Toledo
That's never concerned the cartels hurting their own people.
Brady
Well, they're pretty. They seem like they're pretty cognizant about protecting the resort towns, like staying away from them a little bit.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
So what is this you're pulling up here?
Dick Toledo
Just the. The article that I was going to put this out on our. On our page. Told the shelter in place as cartel violence erupts all over the country because they're down in Jalisco. Is that where they got the guy?
Larry McFeely
I believe so, yeah. Or was it Guadalajara?
Dick Toledo
Guadalajara, that was it.
Brett Vesely
Guadalupe, huh?
Dick Toledo
Warned of war, tourists of violence in Puerto Vallarta, Cancun, Tulum and elsewhere.
Brady
Do you think if we were still in the old office, we'd be shelter in place there?
Larry McFeely
Perhaps it's about the same. Perhaps about the same.
Brett Vesely
Some people don't know. I. It did get a little funky around there. Oh, yeah. Every once in a while I used to work the night shift.
Brady
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
Long, long ago.
Brett Vesely
And I remember on a New Year's Eve once, I was leaving Guadalupe, driving out. Who's out there in the middle of the road?
Larry McFeely
Road?
Brett Vesely
Bunch of folks shooting guns in the air.
Larry McFeely
Well, they would shoot at the AM towers in that field.
Brett Vesely
Not even just shooting at that, just shooting straight up.
Larry McFeely
Oh, I know. But they would shoot at those towers, too, those boats.
Brady
Celebratory shots most of the time.
Dick Toledo
Yeah, supposedly. So I worked with the guy that I went to Little Rock with and to Toledo with. Started at KUPD when it was in a trailer where the baseball field is now in Guadalupe. And he said that they used to count the holes in the. In the trailer from being shot at from the locals there. Like every day.
Brett Vesely
They.
Dick Toledo
They did a count just to make sure that if there was any more that had happened, the whole. The whole side of it was Riddled with bullet holes.
Brett Vesely
Wow. We used to throw oranges over at the billboard Insight and at the Insight building.
Dick Toledo
And John would need.
Larry McFeely
So good.
Brady
It was a perfect cup. You had to throw it in that little. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
And then throw it down the rain gutter on the side of the building. Holmberg was great at that.
Brady
What?
Brett Vesely
I never got one, Brett.
Brady
Did you? I mean, you had a guy, basically, mcso would stop by once a night.
Larry McFeely
Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. He hang out maybe most of hang. I'm like, no, it's a lot safer with you here. I'm good. You know.
Dick Toledo
Is he the one that caught the meth heads on the couch out in the. Out in the a.m. i think so.
Larry McFeely
I think so. In that little ditch.
Dick Toledo
Did you ever. You saw that, didn't you?
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah.
Dick Toledo
They dug it out where that hedge was. Had a couch down there. Couldn't see it even from the Guadalupe overpass.
Brett Vesely
So cool.
Dick Toledo
I don't know if it's cool or not.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, I'm not going cool.
Eric
So cool.
Brett Vesely
Brett sees a little hiding area.
Dick Toledo
Cherry lighting up in the distance from the studio.
Brady
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
From the crack pipes out there.
Brett Vesely
Oh, those were. Those were the days we'd have carpet. Yep.
Brady
And don't forget a lot. Don't forget.
Dick Toledo
This is a. Larry used to wax poetic about that one. First couple of years we were in this building.
Brett Vesely
I miss the old buildings. I will still say you got to appreciate where you come from.
Dick Toledo
True.
Brett Vesely
And so I still have a love in my heart for Guadalupe. I still have a love in my heart.
Dick Toledo
Bees in your office and everything else.
Larry McFeely
And the piss that would roll out of the bathroom into your office. Well, I don't know why.
Brady
I don't know what you loved about that building.
Brett Vesely
It was our own little place.
Dick Toledo
It was our own little frat.
Brett Vesely
It was our own little frat house, and we ran it well.
Dick Toledo
Remember when they took that dishwasher out of there there and everything in that kitchen and everything behind it?
Brady
They now charge admission. It's a cavern. The stuff that grew underneath that dishwasher.
Brett Vesely
I learned how to ride motorcycles in the parking lot there. Not learned, but I mean relearned, I suppose. How to ride street bikes and in the parking lot with Wolfman.
Larry McFeely
Yeah. You know, a little styrofoam cup set up in the parking lot late at night, a little slaloming. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Was that you? That was.
Larry McFeely
I was on. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Okay. So. Yeah, you were. On the overnight nights, I would finish up and start riding around on a motorcycle back and forth in the parking lot. It Was a blast.
Dick Toledo
We're all too old.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. What can I say?
Larry McFeely
Destroying cars in the parking. That's great.
Dick Toledo
Well, if you abandon your car in our parking lot and get what you pay for.
Brady
You know, we had Grave Digger out there jumping cars. And then Robbie Gordon came out.
Brett Vesely
Yep.
Brady
With his.
Dick Toledo
With his flying truck.
Brady
Yeah. And miked me up and I sat shotgun with him.
Brett Vesely
That's right. Right.
Brady
And he didn't put it up on two wheels.
Dick Toledo
Oh, yeah.
Brady
He hits the thing in the parking lot, you know, on that dirt. All right. Hits it on two wheels. I just remember I'm. I'm screaming. And he looks over at me one handed.
Dick Toledo
He did the dad.
Brady
Pretty cool, isn't it? It's as. On two wheels going about 60 miles per hour.
Brett Vesely
The white trash picnic.
Dick Toledo
So that. And you remember, it wasn't Grave Digger. It was the other monster truck. He almost maximum. He almost hit the guy wire.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Because he got so high.
Brady
That would have been. Oh.
Dick Toledo
Nighttime.
Brett Vesely
But even still, like I look back at some of those videos and I go, all it would have taken is one wrong move. Oh yeah.
Dick Toledo
Because all the listeners gather around.
Brett Vesely
They would all gather around. I mean like one wrong move and somebody gets clipped.
Dick Toledo
So I'm with you on that. That I have that stuff I have a reverence for.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
The near misses that we.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
Brought in. Brought in a food truck. The one morning people were gathered around as the gravedigger and they had like a burrito buggy or something like that around there that could have been crushed.
Brett Vesely
It was a lot of fun. I see. And in that regard, I do miss those days.
Larry McFeely
Yeah. But not that building.
Brady
What a.
Brett Vesely
It was a dump, that place. But it was our dump.
Dick Toledo
It was hard.
Brett Vesely
It was art dump. You're listening to Brady's Morning Cup. If you didn't know once a month
Brady
the opening gate wouldn't work.
Brett Vesely
It's true.
Dick Toledo
Oh, yeah. Well. And then we had the listener that
Brett Vesely
every time it rained the gate wouldn't work.
Dick Toledo
The listener that had a diabetic episode
Brett Vesely
and rammed the gate and ran right off of the freeway. Off of the 10 freeway. Right.
Dick Toledo
That one. I forgot about that one. Talking about the other gal that was actually right there that hit the gate.
Brett Vesely
Oh, right, right, right, right.
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. We actually had somebody that went. Ran off of the 10 freeway through the. The back parking lot that was out
Larry McFeely
there for like 10 years or whatever. Didn't that car hit the van? Remember that van that was sitting out there was like one of our old engineers, like prior to Melo type Thing? The old Chester the Molester van that was out there.
Brett Vesely
Are you talking about the old KU KQ van?
Larry McFeely
No, no, no. The one that had no windows in it and everything else. The Chomo mobile.
Dick Toledo
No, that van became the Katy west van, didn't it?
Brett Vesely
Did it?
Larry McFeely
I don't remember.
Dick Toledo
Now, the one that if you. If you accelerated, that thing was held
Brady
together by the wrap.
Dick Toledo
It didn't. It didn't have any support for the driver's seat, so if you gassed it, the. The whole back end would fly back.
Brett Vesely
Right, right, right. And as a kid, I ran in that van. I ran around town in that van with Larry Mack. As a kid. As a kid, ran around in that van giving away bumper stickers. Boy, oh, boy.
Larry McFeely
And we're getting emails, of course. Brady remembers the food trucks that showed
Brett Vesely
up in the quad. How about that? That graphic that you just got sent there for Larry's morning sickness.

Larry McFeely
I was just gonna ask what kind of cigarettes he was making.
Brett Vesely
Cool.
Larry McFeely
I was gonna say their parliaments.
Brady
Jeez. We got a controversy going on in the lottery here, Arizona. Oh, do we got this?
Brett Vesely
Yeah. No Circle tape.
Brady
And let's see. With Scottsdale Road, 56th street and Bell in 56th street in Scottsdale.
Brett Vesely
Okay, I gotta get straight, because I
Brady
knew it was In Scottsdale.
Brett Vesely
Scottsdale. 56th Street.
Brady
Bell on. At the Circle K there. Last November, three customer walks in and orders $85 worth of tickets. 85 tickets. Pays for 60 of them. 25 of those tickets are unsold. Stayed in the store. The manager.
Brett Vesely
So, wait, so he ordered 85?
Brady
Yep.
Brett Vesely
He said, I would like 85 of these tickets.
Brady
I can only pay for six.
Brett Vesely
Wait, I can only pay for.
Brady
Deal.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, Go to the goddamn ATM.
Brady
What's the problem?
Brett Vesely
So he pays for 60 of them. Then they're left over. They're just.
Brady
They're left over. They're sitting there. Lottery is drawn that night, and One of those 25 tickets match the six numbers. 12.8 million.
Brett Vesely
Wow.
Brady
So the manager of the store comes back in the next day.
Dick Toledo
I'm rich.
Brett Vesely
It's mine. I'm rich.
Brady
He put in that 25 bucks, takes off his. Finishes his shift, takes off his uniform, comes back and buys the other remaining tickets for.
Brett Vesely
Can you do that?
Brady
Ten bucks? Hell, yeah.
Brett Vesely
Can you? Is that where they're not now it's
Brady
being decided by the Maricopa county courts. Because Circle K is saying those are unsold tickets. That's, you know. Is it our money? Is it. Did Galitska do buying There'll be a
Dick Toledo
riot if it goes to Circle K.
Larry McFeely
Oh, yeah, he paid For. For him.
Brady
Right. Knowing, though. But. Well, is that illegal? Knowing that he knew that was the winning ticket. One of the. The numbers that he.
Larry McFeely
If he paid for all the tickets, he should be good. If he only bought the one, then
Brady
he bought the one I got a winning tick.
Dick Toledo
Isn't the argument then that if you work at a Circle K, just print out a bunch of extra tickets.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Dick Toledo
Check the next day if any of them win.
Brett Vesely
I mean, you could buy it.
Larry McFeely

Brett Vesely
Wow.
Brady
This city is built kind of on a hill. So this thing extends. It's got eight elevators on it and then stretches of the rest of the escalator. So you have to drop the level to get back on the escalator.
Brett Vesely
Oh, geez.
Brady
And right now you can. Can ride it for basically 4 cents. There's a little fee to ride the escalator.
Brett Vesely
To ride the escalator.

Larry McFeely
For 4 cents. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, I would ride that. I'd ride that for a dollar.
Dick Toledo
Just gonna say that.
Brett Vesely
For 4 cents.
Brady
There's a 58 year old elementary school teacher in Wisconsin named Lori Lobenstein. She was arrested after being accused of using cocaine at school. So made an anonymous tip about her. After they noticed changes in Lori's behavior. Behavior. Specifically, she frequently went to the bathroom with her purse. Left behind bloody tissues with a white powder.
Brett Vesely
Ooh.
Brady
The principal shrugged it off at first, maybe because it's probably unbelievable.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
But school resource. Resource officer took the powder to the authorities. Tested positive for cocaine. Police say she admitted to using cocaine since August. August. And that she's done the lines in the classroom and teachers lounge bathrooms. But she insisted that she would never put her students in danger.
Brett Vesely
When I was in that ship is
Brady
sail do it with those kids.
Larry McFeely
I do more than coke.
Brett Vesely
When I was in grade school over there at Madison Meadows in Phoenix, I had brought. And I don't remember why I brought it, but I brought a bag of cake mix mix to school.
Dick Toledo
Look like Kilo.
Brady
The blonde or the white. Whatever.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, whatever.
Brady
The.
Brett Vesely
The White cake mix was yellow. Somebody told on me. They came to my locker, opened it up, tested it. Tested it. They. Yeah. I mean, do you know how much. Do you know how much cocaine that would have to be?
Brady
That's pure.
Brett Vesely
I mean, that kind of a bag.
Dick Toledo
Just how the value of it.
Brady
Right? Yeah. That's like a kilo.
Brett Vesely
Are you kidding me? Like, it could kid a tiny. You know, with that much cocaine. Give me a break.
Brady
I don't know if you've heard about,
Brett Vesely
but the question is, why did I bring cake powder to school? What. What grade again? It must have been like seventh, I think I was in a home EC class. And that was the whole thing. I brought it for home act.
Dick Toledo
That makes sense.
Brady
Did you take it out of the box? It's just the package. Package only.
Brett Vesely
Yes. The clear bag.
Brady
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
Should have put some all over your nose like Scarface style.
Brett Vesely
What's up? Let's go. Yeah. Yo. And like the. The testing. The testing that you see in. In movies, you know, the typical testing is. Yeah. You always, like taking your. Your pinky finger and you rub it against your teeth there. Yeah. And then you rub it on your tongue. Nope, that's cake battery.
Brady
I'd normally do A Wild World for this story, but.
Brett Vesely
No, you're not gonna probably have the music. I don't have it ready. He doesn't.
Dick Toledo

Brett Vesely
Where's Punches?
Dick Toledo
Dad?
Brady
Chase them away. Maybe because she thought her baby was annoyed by Punch. So observers got emotional over the weekend. They said the good thing. It's good seeing Punch with the monkey and learning to cope. Being alone and not having a mother.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
Right. Now, the guy that donated Ikea donated the doll to Punch. It's called a jungle scog.
Eric
Oh.

Brady
A shot glass? Some of these don't.
Brett Vesely
Okay.
Brady

Come on. Come on, Rhett. You know you can find that on Reddit.
Brady
I'm sure.
Brett Vesely
Just letting you know. Geez Louise, you guys get away with this crap. Come on, let's get a play by play. Larry, you're filling in.
Dick Toledo
Let's do this.
Brett Vesely
I mean, she's being filled in. Is going on. That's the play by play sound off again. It's off. Yes. Why? Because that's the best part. I'm afraid there's something.
Brady
Let's play this again.
Larry McFeely
What are you doing?
Brett Vesely
It's going to be screamed here.
Larry McFeely
Wrecking it. There we go.
Brett Vesely
No. Wow.
Brady
All right.
Larry McFeely
Wait for the pull out there, then I. Now turn the sound on.
Brett Vesely
Yeah,
Brady
I'm better than this.
Brett Vesely
All right, we'll finish with that.
Larry McFeely
Jesus.
Brett Vesely
All finished?
Larry McFeely
Yeah, we're done.
Brady
She was, too.
Brett Vesely
Yep.
Brady
Apparently.
Brett Vesely
That's your Brady report.
Dick Toledo
Guadalupe replay coming up.
Brett Vesely
Guadalupe replay coming up. Tune in for that. I don't know why you would. After just. Yeah, after that. It's Brady's Morning cup here on 98K Upd, Arizona's most powerful, powerful rock radio station.
Eric
This is Michael with Restore My Civil Rights. I made a lot of poor decisions in my past that had lifelong consequences. After I was released from prison for the last time in 2014, I discovered the process to have my convictions dismissed and all of my rights restored, including my Second Amendment rights. Since achieving this for myself in 2018, our attorney has assisted over 3,000 others
Brett Vesely
in doing the same.
Eric
If you are still living under the consequences of past mistakes and would like to restore your rights as I have, visit restoremycivilrights.com and book a free consultation today.
Brett Vesely
Hey, it's Larry McFeely here with my friend Wayne from AMCO. Wayne, it's Tax time. You filed and your refunds burn in a hole in your pocket.
Eric
That's right, Larry. Before you book a trip or buy
Brett Vesely
something shiny, please remember your car.
Eric
Tax time's the best time to take care of all the car repairs you've been putting off.
Brett Vesely
Sure, because nothing kills a tax refund buzz faster than a surprise car breakdown. I'll say.
Eric
If your car's been acting up, now's the time to handle it.
Brett Vesely
Should we wait for our refund before getting repairs?
Eric
No way, Amco. Payment plans let you get repairs now and pay when you get your check.
Brett Vesely
Google Amco for your Nearest location. That's Amco Double A, MCO transmissions and a whole lot more. You thought that was funny? Holmberg's morning sickness. You were laughing like a hyena when he said it. 98. The hell is wrong with you? Not KUPD. It's Arizona's real rock. Brady's Morning Cup. You gotta love the. The theme song there. It's good stuff.
Brady
I just got a text from a body. Mine says, okay, now I'm ready for some impressions.
Brett Vesely
Oh, well, come on, Go.
Brady
There's so many. There's so many. I got so many.
Brett Vesely
I just got a text, too, from my mom saying, my boy is talking about finding porn on Reddit.
Brady
Oy, V. A.
Brett Vesely
Sorry, Mom.
Brady
You feel good, don't you?
Brett Vesely
I love you.
Brady
Love you, Mom. Sorry.
Brett Vesely
Brady's Morning Cup. Holmberg is out. And we were talking earlier about Brady's big fat wedding 20 years ago, believe it or not, over there at the celebrity theater. See, they're on the show. We had Static X playing your wedding. It was an absolute blast. And I had put together this video back then, which, again, I don't even remember. I must have put this thing together on imovie, something on the Apple computer I had.
Brady
Well, we would shoot them in the morning and then send them all to you. And then you put them together.
Brett Vesely
You guys would have comedians come in and they would film some marital advice for you. And then we would throw it into the computer and kind of get it all set up.
Brady
And Frank actually did his own.
Brett Vesely
That's right. Frank did his own. He had his backyard film helmet, and his son was so little at that point that, like, basically couldn't hold the camera.
Brady
So he just told him to hold the camera. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
So he dropped it on the ground. He dropped it into the grass. And so Frank finally just started, like, laying down, following the camera, trying to follow the camera. You know, his kid is so little at that point. And so there's Bob Saget, there's Chelsea Handler, there's Joe Rogan, Norm MacDonald, Old
Brady
MacDonald had a farm, I think Harlem
Brett Vesely
Williams, Harlan Williams, and a bunch more. So I'm gonna play this for you now, but I guess, you know, basically we'll post it on Social later so you can actually watch it. But for right now, we'll have to kind of yell out who's who, see
Brady
if the advice is still good and
Brett Vesely
see if the advice is still good. So without any further delay, here is the Brady's Big Fat Wedding Wedding wishes video. Opens with the KUPD logo. Presents Big Fat Wedding Marital advice. Hi, Brady. There's Kelly. Oh, my God. Wow, that's a big head I had there. Hey, Brady, Just a little mar.
Eric
You don't have to, you know, you don't have to.
Brett Vesely
Maybe you'll never see.
Dick Toledo
Most of this guy's an idiot. So.
Brett Vesely
Gag ball, Brady. Guy with a little ball in his mouth. And you should have married a man because, you know, you. I know you're getting married, and I think it's safe that somebody's gonna marry you. All right, well, you're getting married, buddy. 65% of the people who get married divorce, and those are the people who
Eric
have the courage to get out.
Larry McFeely
What about the cowards that stay and
Brett Vesely
suffer some John Madd. Here's the guy who's getting married.
Eric
You know, one day the honeymoon will be over.
Brett Vesely
You'll be married, you know, a longer time, and, you know, in the bedroom,
Eric
it might get a little boring.
Brett Vesely
And maybe the role will play.
Eric
One of the little trick I always
Brett Vesely
do is I dress my ladies up in a shrimp costume, Tell her to
Eric
yell red Lobster when we're in the middle of it. My advice to you would be to
Brett Vesely
throw that tuxedo away and grab a pair of dolphin shorts. She's looking at your legs. Whatever. Those things coming out of his body are those hips? Look at that. Look at that. That's WWF material. Just a marriage advice. Don't dress up like a lumberjacket. That's, like, really pathetic. You know, you shouldn't do that.
Eric
You should just go.
Brett Vesely
We don't like each other anymore.
Dick Toledo
Ronnie, Just get the hell out.
Brett Vesely
Ronnie, get out now. I know the guy. He's a hot mess. Put it in, take it out.
Eric
Boom, you're done.
Brady
It's about as dirty as it'll get a bit, yeah.
Brett Vesely
Two months later, your wife's a real lump.
Larry McFeely
Geez, Larry, nice editing.
Brett Vesely
I thought I did all the editing.
Dick Toledo
What are you doing?
Brett Vesely
Sure. How about some?
Larry McFeely
We don't have another drop on this one.
Brett Vesely
No, you're gonna have to give it time.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, you're gonna have another time to catch up, man.
Brett Vesely
You may have already ruined that.
Dick Toledo
All right. Just selling it. Watching it online later.
Eric
Yeah, you would go, Dick. Come on, we're best friends. George Bush.
Brady
Frank's clean.
Brett Vesely
I'm gonna go to Crate and Barrel and buy you guys something. You need anything? Place maps.
Eric
You get the last.
Brett Vesely
Now I'm kind of worried I shouldn't play this anymore. Congratulations. I didn't really spend a lot of money on this, Brady.
Larry McFeely
I thought about hiring a photographer and
Brett Vesely
Stuff, but it's been fun.
Dick Toledo
I want you to be happy.
Brett Vesely
And you and Ronnie, if that's her real name, have a good marriage, you know. See you later.
Eric
Oh, God.
Brady
I thought you were gay, Brady.
Brett Vesely
There you go. So that's it. That is the Brady's big fat wedding Wedding wishes video. And we'll have to post that for you guys. Wow. I didn't realize that there was a couple of F bombs in there. I hit the dump button. Just so you know, I hit the dump button. Hopefully it actually dumped on the.
Larry McFeely
Is our program director right there playing F bombs on the air?
Brett Vesely
Great. You know, that didn't work, Larry. I'm going to be in big trouble this morning. Hope not. Hey, we got a Guadalupe Squares for you. Yeah.
Dick Toledo
The prevailing request this morning was for Sam the Metallica fan. And I think this is the first episode.
Brett Vesely
First time 2013 legend. All right, here you go. It's Brady's morning cup. The best of Guadalupe Squares here with Sam the Metallica fan. Geez.
Eric
Time now for your Guadalupe Squares. Just like the Hollywood Squares, except completely different. Done right here in beautiful downtown Guadalupe. Here's your host, Mr. Creepy Bergeron.
Brady
Creepy.
Eric
Thank you, Johnny. Starting in the top left corner, he's our president, President Brian Obama.
Brady
That's right.
Eric
President Barack Obama's here and. What's the matter? Please give me all sorts of trouble. What's his problem?
Brady
I don't know.
Eric
I don't know. I've quit trying. I'm gonna go ahead and.
Brady
You need more money.
Eric
I said I was gonna change hope, change all sorts of stuff like that. But what I've done is change my mind. I'm a Republican now and I'm gonna go ahead and raise the debt ceiling just like everybody's done for the last 40 years. We'll do the exact same thing. Plans that everybody's always done. I quit if I don't get to bomb Syrians. You don't let me kill Syrians. I don't care anymore. Not even gonna try. Just let me kill one Syrian. That's no way to be one Syrian. Death for me and I'll start trying again. Otherwise, I'm just gonna do what Bush did.
Brady
Let's go play golf.
Eric
You're off. Spot me three strokes because you're white and I assume you've been playing longer. You got a Barry in the middle. Top, middle square.
Brett Vesely
It's.
Eric
I guess he heard the J. Moore impression earlier. It's Al Pacino. What the hell was going on in here? Jaymore was doing. Jaymore is Walking around. It's flattering. Pretending to be me.
Brett Vesely
And I'm not a big fan of that idea.
Eric
I don't like it when guys do that. So I'm gonna have to put a stop to it right here. I'll go to Stand up live tonight. Yeah. And watch me kick the living. Be Jesus. Jaymore's my new character. You're an old man, Hurricane Carter.
Larry McFeely
I know that.
Brett Vesely
You could do it.
Eric
Oh, yeah. I'm going to play box of Hurricane Cardon. An HBO special. I don't know if that'll work. All vinyl. Right, baby. That's what I'm talking about right here. I'll play anybody. Give me a wig and I'll do it. Can you just say Charlie for me?
Larry McFeely
Charlie?
Eric
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
Thank you.
Eric
That's all you need.
Brett Vesely
Sorry, that's all you get.
Eric
Jay flicked me in the balls.
Brett Vesely
Who are big on a ball. Flicking. What the hell?
Eric
He reached over and flicked Brady in the balls. Then he flicked the kid from the
Brett Vesely
stand up live in the balls.
Eric
Wow. He's not flicking my ball.
Brady
Felt good.
Eric
Doesn't feel bad. Now you can say you got flicked in the balls by Jay Moore. I guess I'm gonna flick his ball.
Larry McFeely
All right.
Brett Vesely
Square.
Eric
This whole ball flicking's out of order. He's got a brand new movie out. It's my good friend, Hugh Jackman. Boy, oh boy, oh, boy. Come see my film this week. Got to start with a glorious and beautiful Jake Gyllenhaal. What a great. Oh, he's gorgeous. You're not gay.
Dick Toledo
You are straight.
Brett Vesely
You're married.
Eric
Right? Right. My wife, she believes that that's true too. Eric, I'm glad you buy the magic Wolverine. I want to be a dancer. I'm a. Here's the new premise of my new film. I'm a dancer and I get lonely dancing. And I'm a what? I'm a black block blokeman. I'm a blokeman is what I am. I'm a bloke man.
Brady
Will big into the sheila.
Eric
That's right. I'm not big into the sheilas. I'm a bloke man. So anyway, I'm a dancer. I'm walking around Sydney. I don't know what to do. And I see a young boy and I'm like, I'm gonna take him. And then Jake Gyllenhaal comes looking for me. So it's a. I've got a gorgeous young boy and then a beautiful detective who's gonna cry. Wolverine. It's gonna be marvelous. Nothing gay.
Brady
About it.
Eric
I'm a bad guy. You're not a bad guy.
Dick Toledo
You're a good guy.
Eric
By taking fun at what I do to that beautiful young lad I style. Poor little fella. He's so scared and timid. I like when they shake.
Larry McFeely
Eric.
Eric
You're kind of a cute little cuddly koala. You're a little koala. I'll put you up in a tree. All right. I want to tree you. Tree Eric with a coonhound. Get him up that tree and then climb up and save him. Cuddle with his little furry skin. I hate you. I knew you'd eventually do it. The Metallica movie's coming out and Dave Mustaine's irritated.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Eric
Cause you guys never plug when I'm here. You're always talking about Metallica. Yeah.
Brady
What do you mean?
Eric
We're talking about you're gonna be this state fair. I'm gonna be at the state fair, but you never hear anything about that. I want to talk to Larry McFeely. How come you never talk about Dave Mustaine's fair show? Why, actually, he's right here, dude. Larry. Larry. Why don't you ever talk about my stuff?
Brett Vesely
Isn't it Dr. McNasty?
Eric
Well, it could be.
Brett Vesely
That's what you called me last time we met.
Eric
Is it really?
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Eric
I'd apologize if I didn't believe it was true. Maybe you were drunk that day. I apologize for giving you credit for ever going to school to be a doctor.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Eric
The middle square. Where's my backup? Yeah, he loves Megadeth as well. It's Megadeth. Lovin Brady in the middle square. Just like a pie with pepper ronies in my belly. I didn't know you were such a big, Mega f. Huge mega bar fan.
Brady
Dr. McNasty.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Eric
How you used to give him more props there.
Brett Vesely
Yay. McPhee.
Eric
I'm angry. I'm angry. Is that an impression?
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, yeah.
Eric
That's a real fan. Thanks, Dave. I am a real fan. I like all your songs.
Brett Vesely
Like
Eric
Symphony of Destruction. Yeah, That's a good one. I think. And then there's the angry again.
Brett Vesely
A toot.
Eric
Meringue and ribs and mayonnaise. I love all of his stuff. Yeah, it's good stuff. I think that's him. You gonna hang a picture of you and Dave at Porkopolis? Maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Little right square. That's what I'm like. Horse with no name.
Brett Vesely
That's a big one.
Eric
I like. Yeah, that was good. Through the desert on a horse with no Name. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was a talk like a pirate day yesterday. So we got a whole bunch of pirates. A group of pride. A blessing. We're a blessing of pirates. We're trying to come up with a name for what you call a group of pirates. Eh?
Brett Vesely
Seamen.
Eric
Seamen. Seamen of pirates. Yes. I don't know if that'll work. That's the one I think is gonna stick. Semen sticks.
Brady
Or a batch.
Eric
Batch of seamen. Pirates. The batch of sea semen. That's not very intimidating. That's what pirates are called in a group of batches. Okay, how about a murder like crows? Great load of semen.
Brady
Okay.
Eric
Great batch of semen. A huge giant batch of semen coming your way. Did you guys celebrate yesterday? What'd you do? Well, we just sat around a couple of bars and drank it and fired cannons.
Brady
Add me some fish and chips out
Eric
there at the skirt Dollars a tum Fish. Had some fish. We went into the library and played with a micro fe and chip.
Brett Vesely
Ah, we got an uppity pirate.
Eric
Well, your accent is a little testy. I'm not real sure what you said with fish either.
Brady
I had a barnacle in me throat.
Eric
Like to welcome my Jewish friend. You have a Jewish pirate? The Jewish pirate Captain. Yiddish Captain Yitzchak. Somebody pull his car around. He's choking on something. He's got a weird hat on. It's not like your guys is pirate. No batch of semen of mine is choking.
Brett Vesely
It's called a yarmulke, but I've got a feather sticking out of the side of it.
Eric
Yes, so does this parrot wearing yarmulka. You okay with this in your group? Yeah. I've got to be more excited. It's 2013 right here. Gotta include everybody in my batch of semen. You go to battle with cat wazoo ever on my batch of semen versus his batch. There's no match there. Yeah, I be shooting me semen everywhere. He'll have no idea what's coming. There'll be a semen here flying at him and another semen here flying at him. Semen shooting across the bow. It's a lot of semen.
Brady
Let's take a walk, gents.
Eric
Bottom left square. It's Brady. Secret square. And he hints today. Brady.
Brady
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
How you doing?
Brady
I'm 63 years old. I was an actor. I was camp director in Meatballs. I was Scrooge. What do you guys got here?
Eric
It's not it.
Brady
36 holes. You can smoke, play two moles,
Brett Vesely
blue
Brady
sex, a million, Kentucky bluegrass.
Eric
Anyway, so I'm a looper for the Dal.
Brady
Carl Spackler.
Eric
There you go. Father Middle Square. He's here to, gal. He's here to. That's pretty awesome. He's here to defend Metallica's honor. It's Sam, the Metallica fan, excited about the new movie through the Never.
Brett Vesely
That's right.
Eric
I am back, man.
Brett Vesely
Freaking love Metallica. These guys are awesome. Have you seen through the Neverman?
Eric
Have you seen it?
Brett Vesely
Pretty good stuff.
Eric
How many times you seen it, Sam? 17 times even come out yet.
Brett Vesely
I know. I saw the sound soundtrack for the new movie. Yeah, it was pretty badass. I was like, yeah, I love this stuff. Love Metallica. I was looking at it and I was. It's got all these flip flops and stuff as you open up the CD and you flip it around, you flop it around. And I was like, wow, is Metallica gonna put out more good CDs? And then I looked at the COVID and it said, never.
Eric
I'm sorry.
Brett Vesely
No, not good.
Eric
So it talks to you. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
And then I went back to Never Come. Yeah.
Eric
Sam, I also heard you like Disturbed. Don't you like Disturbed, too? No. Come on. You like Disturbed?
Larry McFeely
A little bit.
Eric
What's your favorite Disturb song? Come on. You have a Disturbed song in your history that I know you love.
Brett Vesely
Well, there is one.
Eric
All right, let's hear it, man.
Brett Vesely
I will control the world.
Eric
You should be like, a pleasure. You should be like a cover band or something.
Brett Vesely
But the Day that Never Comes is really better song.
Larry McFeely
Oh, yeah.
Brett Vesely
Damn.
Eric
Bottom right square.
Dick Toledo
It's.
Eric
He's in his final days. It's Our boss, Chuck R.T. oh, good morning.
Dick Toledo
How are you?
Eric
This is the step that I'm taking now called acceptance.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Eric
Okay. How many steps are there? There are 12, Eric. You'll find that out. You'll see someday, when you're blessing the Lord and apologizing to your family and friends, giving back all that money.
Larry McFeely
Money.
Eric
Yeah. Anyway, this is the acceptance stage. I'm now in with the inevitable demise of my stay here at kupd, putting Larry in a position no general manager in his right mind would ever do. And now Larry's the luckiest man in the world.
Brett Vesely
And Car.
Eric
Yeah, exactly. The Jew in charge of things. Who would have thunked it? And Toledo. And they're leaving me in charge of things. Well, you've been through. I didn't want to tell you. You're in charge. Toledo got his evidently been kicked in the face by a mule scars. Nobody here to console him for that. Brady's Gonna have a stroke, Eric will be an alcoholic, and Holmberg will just die. But I, I, I can accept that now. I've always protected you kids. And now I get to go.
Brady
Thank you.
Eric
Well, thank you for your years of service, Chuck. Hopefully, when you see me dangling from the noose in the lobby in seven days, you'll know that helping me is the best thing.
Brady
It's not gonna happen, Chuck.
Eric
It is gonna happen, Brady. Accept it. Death is inevitable. You should be happy about it. I'm going to a better place. But first, I'm going to hang myself in the lobby and piss down on all of you as you wander in the front door. You're going to do it right in
Dick Toledo
front of the door.
Eric
Right in the doorway.
Brett Vesely
Yes.
Eric
Happy Halloween. We have Jessica and Doug on the line. Jessica, are you there? Yes. Doug, are you there? All right, Jessica, you're a girl, so you go first, okay? Pick a square. You gotta pick one of the squares. I'll pick Chuck. All right. Great idea. Jessica. Jessica, you strike me as a woman who isn't really up on the game somewhat. Yeah. You understand? It's tic tac dough. Tic tac toe. I like dough better. Tic tac dough. You win in the end. You understand? Just pick a square. Big money. Shut your girl mouth, let us answer it and then agree or disagree, Right?
Brett Vesely
Okay.
Eric
All right. Where do you work, Jack, Jessica?
Brett Vesely
The room store.
Eric
At the room store? Yeah. They put some money in your pocket. A couple of bucks here and there. You've advertised here for me? That's right. I want to thank you. Thank you, Jessica, for supporting CUPD while it was run by normals. Now a bunch of Jews are coming in to ruin everything. Are they Jews? Mormon couple are Jews couple of Mormons. All of them are wrong. Okay, here's your question, Chuck.
Brady
True or false?
Eric
Ulysses S. Grant smoked at least 20 cigars at day. Is that true or false? U.S. grant. Now Yuli and I used to smoke a ton of blunts. Does that count? Oh, yeah. He was talking about cigars here. Well, we used to get high to the be Jesus and sword fight for a little while until the ladies came back. Then we had a couple of Valda style Indian wars. Yuli and I used to rape and pillage even after it wasn't cool anymore. Really? Yeah, we kept it real. We were og. Okay. Yeah, he smoked a lot of cigars. He had an oral fish fetish. I remember that. You remember that? Real chunky wiener. I remember. I think that was Yuli. He should be on money okay. Is he on money? I think he is, yeah. I don't have anything less than a million dollar bill, so I've never seen your money. We'd soak our cigars in a couple of squaws for a little while and we'd pop them out. We use the Indians as humidors. Wow, that is horrible.
Brett Vesely
Talking about their mouths, right?
Eric
No, it was a different time. Larry Valdo, were you ever used as a humidity humidor? I apologize, Father, for you being here. Come to hear this. Yes. Walks with humidity. Tobacco is what we call her. True or false? What? Indians were once humidors, to a white man's wishes. Smoked at least 20 cigars a day. True. I'll say that's true. Had to be at least 20. He had a lot of Indians around. All right. He says true. Do you agree or disagree? Jessica? Do you agree with him or disagree
Brett Vesely
with him that he smoked that many?
Eric
I disagree. Oh, you should have agreed. Oh, no. You know, that's why Indians are always in front of cigar shops. Yeah, they're humidors. Naturally, O gets a square. It sounds like Jessica's trying to get some help from other people. You stuff one in an Indian and it just comes out golden. Valda, produce a cigar for us immediately. Jessica, tell that person behind you to be quiet. Yes. If that person wanted to play, they could have played.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Eric
You're playing the game.
Brady
It's not a team.
Brett Vesely
Team effort.
Eric
Doug, you're up. Pick a square, bottom left. Bottom left. That's Brady's secret square. Give him a treatment, Brady.
Brady
Doug, I'm watching you. They're standing over your ball, swinging that club in that tight dress.
Eric
Any ideas? That's got to be Bill Murray. Oh, man. Amazing. Oh, spot on. Quick sweep. Oh, yeah. Jessica, you can take Sam the Metallica fan for the block. Jessica.
Brett Vesely
Yes?
Eric
Do you take Sam the Metallica fan for the block or do I kill? Okay, good. Hey. Very good. Pay attention, woman.
Brett Vesely
Okay. Sorry. I'm at work. I'm trying to work and do this.
Eric
Stop working immediately.
Brady
Stop surgery.
Eric
It's a girl job. It doesn't matter that much.
Brett Vesely
She's probably, like, not intelligent.
Eric
Yeah, Doug's right. It's the room store. They're looking at rooms. They need time.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Eric
Sam the Metallica fan, everyone.
Brett Vesely
It's Talica.
Eric
Talica. I apologize.
Brett Vesely
Not Metallica?
Eric
Yeah. So you enjoyed the movie, then? I loved it. What was your favorite song in the film?
Brett Vesely
In that film?
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
The Never Song.
Brady
What is it?
Brett Vesely
Never, never say to me again. You're never, never going to say.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Eric
Then, like, the guitars kick in.
Brett Vesely
Well, that's when they come in. And then it's like all.
Eric
That's where he was really going on that, man.
Brett Vesely
Awesome.
Eric
Man, I can't wait to see this movie. That Talica fan is fired up. All right, any other ballad, Sam?
Brett Vesely
Yeah, yeah.
Eric
You like all Talica's ballads?
Brady
Yeah, all Italica.
Eric
Like, Unforgiving.
Brett Vesely
It's like singing all and a W. Unforgiven. I mean, it just does something to
Eric
me, like, in my heart, your soul.
Brett Vesely
Like I'm inside. I'm just.
Eric
You want to live inside Metallica?
Brett Vesely
All right, all right.
Eric
Here's your question, Sam.
Brady
True or false?
Eric
Giraffe.
Brett Vesely
They're really good.
Brady
Okay.
Eric
A giraffe can clean its own. Its own ears with its tongue.
Brett Vesely
Is that true? A giraffe can clean its own ears with its tongue? Oh, yeah, man.
Eric
That's beautiful. That could be a Metallica lyric. You think that's true?
Brett Vesely
You know I don't like Lars, right?
Larry McFeely
What?
Brett Vesely
Why? I think that guy's a douche.
Eric
No way.
Brett Vesely
But I love mortality. Well, James doesn't like Lars either, so.
Larry McFeely
That's.
Eric
That's true. That's our part.
Brett Vesely
You know, I'm playing the.
Eric
I don't like any of them. Yeah, all right. He says true. Do you agree or disagree? Jessica, do you agree? I disagree. You shouldn't have done that.
Brady
She should have.
Eric
Doug has saved us. Doug has saved the day. Well done, Doug. Nice job, Jessica. I'm.
Dick Toledo
I'm.
Eric
I understand your hearing impaired, but thanks for playing anyway. Hang on just a second. Not paying attention while the game's going because there's so much going on at the room store. Maybe she was just so enamored she's
Brady
calling in for something else.
Eric
Calicofin. No, she. No, she was calling from the room store. Yeah, well, she wanted Oddball comedy tour tickets. Oh, so the way. Why she wouldn't have gotten it. She just sit there, just staring at him so close. Afraid you're gonna have to turn that woman around.
Brady
Can I look at my ottoman?
Eric
Why is that woman facing around wrong way? Can't do my stuff.

Spicy rigatoni.
Brady

Larry McFeely

Brett Vesely
I was gonna say. Where's the. Where's the comment from Brett?
Larry McFeely
I haven't been there yet, so I'm. I will.
Brett Vesely
Withholding.
Dick Toledo
Yes.
Larry McFeely
Holding my judgment back.
Brett Vesely
We were talking in here about the possibility of Brett's morning gov.
Brady
Gabagool.
Dick Toledo
We'll take suggestions for what Brett's morning show would be called.
Brett Vesely
I do like that, though. Brett's Morning Gabagool. The good or the good morning Gabagool.
Larry McFeely
How you doing?
Brett Vesely
Good Morning Gabagool. He'll have the gabagool. Where was the. What was the other restaurant you went to?
Brady
Hillstone.
Brett Vesely
Oh, that's always a good.
Brady
I hadn't been there in a while. It was just.
Larry McFeely
We don't need a review on that. That's always good.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I got my taxes done finally this weekend finished up, docusigned, sent in and do you owe you getting refund on the way. That's right. Refund on the way. It's a good one this year too. It's going to be a good one.
Larry McFeely
Good. Larry's buying.
Brady
What are you going to do with it? Save it.
Brett Vesely
I was going to say the old, the old man answer. Put it away for the rainy day. You never know when you might need it. Go on vacation.
Brady
Into the vault.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, so I treated myself to some movies. Then since I did the taxes, kind of gave myself because it's way early this year. Like usually I don't have the taxes done until like end of March. So this year I got it done nice and early. So I went to go check out a couple. Let's put on the. The Movie. The movie music.
Brady
Thank you.
Brett Vesely
It's time for McFeely's McMovie Reviews. I went to see the Crime 101. Pretty interesting stuff. Chris Hemsworth, you got Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keegan, which by the way, have you seen the pictures of him as Ringo Star in this new Ringo Star biopic? I mean, looks spoton. Just like Ringo Star. That's going to be good. And Barry Keegan, it's like you when you mention his name. Who Barry Who? Barry Keegan. Who Barry who? Saltburn. Oh, Barry Keegan.
Brady
Right, right.
Brett Vesely
The guy that dances around with the schlong hanging out at the end of Saltburn.
Brady
Sure, right.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. He's amazing. Halle Berry, who looks incredible. Just incredible. And then Nick Nolte, you said he
Brady
kind of looks shaky.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, I mean, he looks a little bit shaky. And I don't think it was like part of the acting job. I think he's just getting, you know, getting up there. But it was interesting. You know, the filming of this movie took place in the Pacific Palisades right before the wildfire started last year. And the, the, the whole spiel is the synopsis. An elusive thief eyeing his final score encounters a disillusioned insurance broker at her own crossroads. As their paths intertwine, a relentless detective trails them, hoping to find thwart the million the multi million dollar heist.
Brady
And that's Ruffalo who's after him, Correct?
Brett Vesely
Right. Yeah. And it was interesting. It lagged in a couple of parts. It was a little bit slow here.
Brady
How many Star of David's you give it?
Brett Vesely
Oh, is that, that the way that we're doing?
Brady
Yeah, I give it.
Brett Vesely
It's probably about a three, five or a four.
Brady
Okay.
Brett Vesely
Out of Five star of David's preliminary.
Larry McFeely
That's one of the few movies that was actually going to drag me back to the theater just seeing the previews.
Brett Vesely
No, I mean, it was. It was. It was good. Now I. The other movie that I saw was how to Make a Killing and this one was really cool. This is the flick with Glen Powell, Margaret Qualley. Ed Harris is in the movie too.
Dick Toledo
He plays kind of a.
Brett Vesely
Discovered at birth by his obscenely wealthy family. Family blue collar Beckett Redfellow will stop at nothing to reclaim his inheritance. Inheritance. No matter how many relatives stand in his way. So it's basically about killing your relatives to get their inheritance. So is it a dark comedy or dark comedy? But, you know, I think that Glenn Powell gets a bad rap. I'm not saying he's the greatest actor in the world, but it definitely. It feels to me like he might be kind of the new.
Brady
He's the hot ticket.
Brett Vesely
He's kind of the new Tom Cruise.
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
So, yeah, that one was. Was pretty cool. And Margaret. Margaret Qualley is just always fun to look at on the screen. She is so beautiful. She was kind of a jerk in this one too, which was a lot of fun. Dark comedy, psychological drama. Oh, sorry. Brett's game called the God was here the time.
Brady
That was.
Brett Vesely
That was it. I'm being called Time. Time. Rich got a phone call.
Brady
The Good morning Gaba gold star David's on that one.
Brett Vesely
Star David's on that one. I would say that is definitely a four out of five to five star David's. Maybe even a 4.5.
Brady
Strong.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, it's a pretty strong one. I liked the popcorn. Tasted better during that movie, if you will.
Brady
And wasn't the one. The one supposed to be recommended on Image Max? Crime 101. I thought they were talking about that one. And then there's another one they're pushing to go there. Was it on IMAX?
Brett Vesely
Great chase scenes in crime 101. Barry Keegan rides a motorcycle throughout the whole thing. And it's weird. Like in a lot of the scenes he's just wearing his motorcycle helmet and he clocks this dude with his. With a headbutt with his helmet on. I mean, just cracks him. It's pretty awesome. So, yeah, you might want to check out both of those. They're in theaters now. Crime 101 and how to Make a Killing. We got a what Would Brady Do? Coming up here in a little bit.
Brady
Sounds good.

It's time for you to take a look at the new Toyota Tacoma. Visit your Valley Toyota dealers or valleytoyotadealers.com Toyota let's go places. You thought that was funny?

Larry McFeely
We'll get you through there, little fella.
Brett Vesely
On. On Brady's morning cup.
Brady
There's letters that roll in.
Brett Vesely
There's letters. I mean, I know. I know know how it works. I just have never done one.
Dick Toledo
And you have to give your honest opinion.
Brett Vesely
I have to.
Dick Toledo
Have to. That's how this works.
Larry McFeely
You'll do it.
Brady
You don't have to.
Larry McFeely
I'll give my honest opinion.
Dick Toledo
Yeah, we know that. Let Brett take over.
Brett Vesely
Here is the letter. Brady. Would I be an a hole for suing my former best friend for not coming to my wedding? She was said to be the maid of honor, and as part of the wedding party, we, my now husband and I, paid for her to fly to Hawaii for the wedding. We shelled out about $2,300 for her and her husband and my husband's best friend and his wife to be able to attend. She gave no explanation, and we've been on the outs ever since. Can I ask her why she didn't attend at least? I know it's just a small claims court thing, but I really feel like we were clear with her that we would bear the cost of coming. And when she didn't attend, I felt wrong. What would Brady do?
Brady
Okay, well, first, I don't think that's a binding contract if you're sending someone, you know, so, like, I don't know if you can take that to court. Yeah, I mean, I guess you could take anything to court. You want to sue, but that you can't force anyone to go to your wedding.
Dick Toledo
But if she got like a group deal on the. The tickets or something, because was she
Larry McFeely
being cheap and got a group on or something?
Brady
Well, so it doesn't matter. I mean, regardless, the friend bailing on the wedding.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brady
And not giving a reason. Legitimate. Yes, you can ask.
Brett Vesely
I mean, let's go to a wedding. Yeah.
Brady
Well, why not just say that then? Yeah, you know, it's. It's disappointing on the friend's part because you did put up some money right off the bat. I don't know how you couldn't get
Dick Toledo
out of the ticket or get a credit or something.
Brady
Yeah, well, it just seems to me
Brett Vesely
like, I mean, this isn't a business.
Brady
I wouldn't go to court.
Brett Vesely
You know, like, if you're in. If you're in a business with a friend, then it's time to go to court.
Dick Toledo
And if you're trying to sue your friend, just. Just, you know, cancel the friendship.
Brady
Friendship's over.
Dick Toledo
Right?
Brady
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
I go to. I go to Scarface with this one because there's two things in this world I don't break my balls and my word for no one. You said you're gonna go. You owe kick down.
Brett Vesely
Pick up the phone, call your friend.
Dick Toledo
That's a good way to look at it. If you said you're gonna go spent. Because you said you were.
Brady
Yeah, but you can't. Well, you can say that, but you can't hold them to that money.
Larry McFeely
Well, then tell them to go f themselves on.
Brett Vesely
You're all done.
Brady
Terminates a friendship.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brady
So now there is an underlying thing, is why did she not tend to be in with what happened? What's going on there?
Larry McFeely
Doesn't matter.
Brady
Was there a relationship going on before that with her husband to be. Or vice versa?
Brett Vesely
The.
Dick Toledo
Oh, you're going a different route.
Brady
Yeah, well, I mean, there's something that freaked her out.
Brett Vesely
So you're saying she's could have been that bad.
Brady
The friend. There. There was something that was holding the friend back from going.
Brett Vesely
Going to the wedding, and it could have been that bad.
Brady
Right. And if she objected to them getting married or didn't want it, you would think she at least step up and say, this is the reason why I'm going. I don't want you. I don't like you marrying this person.
Larry McFeely
Doesn't matter. You still owe. You still pay you well, you can't if.
Brady
Unless you. Unless you committed and said, okay, we're in. And then last minute was what happened. Doesn't sound like it just sounds like
Larry McFeely
that's what I thought that. So maybe I'm wrong.
Dick Toledo
Yeah, it does sound like that.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. Shelled out the $2,300 for her and her husband, right? Yep.
Larry McFeely
So she knew she was supposed to be there. So her and her husband.
Dick Toledo
Oh, so it sounds like for the bridal party, they shelled out what, five grand? Almost.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
To get them both there.
Brett Vesely
Would you do that to me? Bretzky.
Larry McFeely
What's up?
Brett Vesely
Take me to court.
Dick Toledo
No, no, no. Brett's got other ways and just show up over j.
Brady
That basically is just saying that the relationship is done.
Larry McFeely
Well, yeah.
Brady
I mean, you know, good luck in trying to get the money out of that. It's like, I mean, she. You're you're right. Principal reason, Brett, she. They should pay the money back. Reimbursed.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, and it already says we. We've been on the outs ever since.
Larry McFeely
Well, yeah, because they know they owed, you know, 2300 bucks or whatever it was.
Brady
But she's probably not going to see that money.
Larry McFeely
It's like Sonny says in A Bronx tale. For $20, you never have to talk to them again in your life. So either you mark it off and just. You never have to talk to that person again, or it's the best way to do it.
Brady
You're gonna have. I mean, you're gonna have to basically mark it off.
Brett Vesely
Friend of mine. A friend of ours.
Larry McFeely
Right, exactly. They owe. They owe. Or you send a friend of mine,
Brady
maybe it comes back around. But I would just write it off right now.
Brett Vesely
Got another.
Dick Toledo
Here's one that seems to be happening a lot lately.
Brett Vesely
Brady, what is the proper gym etiquette these days? I'm 46 now, and I've recently returned to working out. And the gym I go to always has these influencers who just go to mug and take up space and do not work out like most of the others in the gym do. Tuesday, I'm waiting for 20 minutes behind, pausing my own workout just to see the. Just to use the leg machine because this chick kept redoing her shot for the gram. The Instagram, I assume. Am I allowed to kick her off a machine? I don't know anymore. Who has. Who has more right to use the equipment? Those who pay for their effing membership or those who just go for the clicks? Brady?
Brady
Unfortunately, that's. That's up to the gym members, you know, that's using it. Like if they're. They're saying, you know, like, some gyms will have a dress code, that they make the rules. I don't know if you can prevent it.
Dick Toledo
Doesn't sound like a dress code issue. It sounds like it's.
Brady
That's what I'm.
Dick Toledo
Courtesy issue.
Brett Vesely
I say you just get involved in the. In the pictures. If they're doing videos,
Brady
they'll never get off the machine then, right? I. I just. Man, I'm finding a club that would not. Not that says no to that.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Are there any out there? Like, we go to Planet Fitness and I see them all fitness all the time.
Brett Vesely
Actually, I have seen some of these videos where people are taking a video and the person from the. The fitness. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. We don't do that here. We don't do that.
Dick Toledo
Good. I like.
Brady
Because you Think about it. I mean, there's other people that. Well, you happen to be in the background or some. Someone's filming there.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Larry McFeely
Photobombing and stuff.
Brady
Yeah. Not only that, you just don't want to be.
Dick Toledo
Be in it.
Larry McFeely
I just roll up. Move it, toots. I gotta work out here. Go, go take a picture over there.
Brett Vesely
You got to call her Toots.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, exactly.
Brett Vesely
Toots. Like a Tootsie Roll.
Brady
Yeah, unfortunately.
Larry McFeely
I mean, that broad can take a picture in front of a rowing machine instead of this one. I mean, come on. You gotta grab another machine.
Dick Toledo
Well, it's not always pictures. It's like what Larry says. She's filming a video of her right. Hoisting the. The equipment.
Brett Vesely
Right.
Dick Toledo
She's got to do that five times. You're like, come on.
Larry McFeely
Well, then it's even better. You in the background.
Brett Vesely
Hey, judge, let's move it.
Brady
Hold on.
Brett Vesely
I gotta get the shot.
Brady
Right.
Brett Vesely
Can you hold this for me?
Brady
You have to tell her. Yeah. Go up to her. And you're not a real influencer because she has to.
Brett Vesely
My 85,000 followers would disagree with that.
Brady
Okay, well, if you were really an influencer, you. You'd have your own gym and.
Dick Toledo
Right.
Brady
Yeah, that's personal trainer, too.
Larry McFeely
Just get on only fans. Quit screwing around. The gym.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. Do it at home.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Texter says private gyms work the best because they're pretty strict about keeping cameras out. You might pay a little bit more, but it's better than seeing those f heads with the cameras out while you're trying to get a pump on.
Brady
True.
Brett Vesely
That's true.
Brady
And you can, you know, you have
Brett Vesely
your own time, personal thing at home, you know, have your own home gym and. And take all the videos you want.
Brady
You can get swole at home.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, swole.
Brady
Gotta get swole. I do. I mean, you know.
Brett Vesely
Oh, I know.
Larry McFeely
I can tell.
Brett Vesely
Obvious.
Eric
Ouch.
Brady
I mean, it might not be lifting. There it is.
Dick Toledo
There it is.
Brady
I didn't say what words.
Larry McFeely
He's turning over the rack of ribs on the. On the burner.
Brett Vesely
And you know, a forearm.
Dick Toledo
Forearms like no other. Those rack of ribs are hefty.
Brett Vesely
Check out these guys. Guns.
Dick Toledo
They're like the brontosaurus ribs from the Flintstones.
Larry McFeely
And we just got a call in for an email. EOS employee here. Definitely not allowed at eos. We have a specific room for content recording. That's pretty cool. So come on out Thursday.
Brett Vesely
Thursday. Brent.
Brady
He'll be in the room.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, but I'll be on the grams.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
How full is that room?
Brett Vesely
Though I don't think everybody's.
Dick Toledo
Everybody's stuffed in one room. I'm not against it, but that's hilarious.
Brett Vesely
On Thursday, Brett's gonna be doing this great big video. Hey, you have to do it from the room.
Dick Toledo
Yeah. You have to do your post from the influencer room.
Brett Vesely
Look at me.
Brady
Smart idea.
Larry McFeely
Yeah. Oh, it is, actually.
Dick Toledo
I wonder what they call. They have to have something pasted on that. Influencer room is what it is.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, I would imagine.
Brett Vesely
The Graham room.
Dick Toledo
The Graham room.
Brett Vesely
Is that it? That's.
Brady
That's it.
Dick Toledo
That's the only two we got. We got this week.
Brett Vesely
All right, thanks. That's. What would Brady do? Brady's morning cup continues here in just a moment. Arizona's most powerful, powerful rock radio station.
Eric
It's John Holmer here from the morning sickness. And it's time to talk about Doug Hopkins of my home group and dough Hopkins dot com. Let's talk about the people who make claims. For instance, a company out there saying they'll get you 100% of market value for your home. And a lot of times, Mr. 100% getting that inspection and says, oh, 100% you just dropped because you've got a few more problems. Don't play around with these people. Trust me when I say you can trust TV's Doug Hopkins. He won't play with the offer at all. If he does, he'll give you $5,000 guaranteed. You can start the process at Doug Hopkins.com or grab that phone and sing. It's John Holberg here, seeing clear as a bell, thanks to my friends at the Schwartz Laser Eye Center. Well, here we are looking at a brand new year. Can you see yourself in 2026? Can you see it all? I mean, really? Maybe in 2026 you should see yourself seeing. Fix those eyes. Vision changes are gradual. You might not even know how bad it's gotten. I know. That was my story. So start the new year by seeing clearly. Visit Dr. Jay Schwartz and his team at the Schwartz Laser Eye Center. 480483 Eyes Schwartz Laser Eye center. The official eye center for your diamondbacks and sons.
Brett Vesely
You thought that was funny? You were lasting like a hyena when he said it. What the hell is wrong with you? 98 KUPD. It's Arizona's real rock with drowning pool right there. It's Brady's morning cup and we're kind of finishing up the morning here. We were talking off the air while the songs were playing and talking about Rob Zombie. He's got that new album Coming out this week, it's the Great Satan. And I was telling Brett there was nothing like seeing Rob Zombie or White Zombie when I first saw them, which was at the Phoenix Convention center on that Astro Creep album. There was nothing like it. I mean, I got chills. I remembered that when that. When that opening sample started with.
Larry McFeely
Perhaps you'd better stall from the beginning. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
And that bass drop. Boom. Perhaps you had better stall from the beginning.
Brady
Oh, was it just White Zombie? Who else was on that bill?
Brett Vesely
I don't even remember anymore. I don't even remember. It might have been Coheed and Tick Cambria. It might have been. But I. I just. I have.
Larry McFeely
They've been around that long.
Brett Vesely
It doesn't even register to me because it was so cool seeing that band.
Larry McFeely
One of the Regret shows that I missed was Pantera with White Zombie opening up at. At Compton Terrace.
Brett Vesely
Oh, I thought you were gonna.
Larry McFeely
And I think that was their. I think that was Zombie's first album. I think that was on the sexist Easter.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
And I just didn't go.
Brett Vesely
I thought you were gonna say Limp Bizkit, Faith no More at the Celebrity.
Larry McFeely
That one I'm really pissed about was fantastic. That one I'm really pissed about. Pissed about.
Brett Vesely
Really cool. Limp Bizkit opening for Faith no More.
Larry McFeely
I never got a chance to see Faith no More early on or later. Never got a chance to see him.
Brett Vesely
I get chills thinking about it. What shows give you chills, Brady? That you remember.
Larry McFeely
Bread.
Brady
Yeah. No, didn't get chills for. Let's see. I was blown away the first time I saw Corn.
Brett Vesely
Really?
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Awesome.
Brady
When I came out here, when we started working here, was that our Christmas show? It was okay.
Brett Vesely
And I think we were offering listeners standing in the cage up on stage. Yep.
Brady
Yep.
Brett Vesely
That was a good one.
Brady
I remember.
Brett Vesely
I was.
Brady
I was just. But when you brought up the sound, the bass.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
I'd never heard anything. I mean, I heard. You know, I saw Beck at a smaller venue, and he had really heavy bass then, but nothing compared to the Corn sound.
Brett Vesely
And I specifically remember that one because I was standing on the stage and I was standing next to Monkey, who was all wired up, and he was doing the wireless thing, and he's standing next to me going,
Brady
yeah.
Larry McFeely
Oh, my God.
Brett Vesely
He's standing right next to. He's playing the opening of Blood.
Brady
That was so cool.
Dick Toledo
That was a cool show because you guys. You and Mark sent me out in a van to pick up Memento, the band Memento.
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah. That's Right.
Dick Toledo
And I took them up to Fiddlesticks or Cracker Jacks, whatever it was up in Scottsdale. We spent kind of the day there, and then I drove them around and then brought them to the venue.
Brett Vesely
Wasn't that a you fest, though?
Dick Toledo
No, that was a Christmas show.
Brett Vesely
Okay. All right.
Brady
And the one and only, the time I saw Rammstein.
Larry McFeely
Oh, yeah,
Brett Vesely
yeah. And that gave you the chills?
Brady
It did, yeah. And then so much that I bought tickets to the LA Shape show. End up couldn't go.
Dick Toledo
Did you sell this to John Gordon?
Larry McFeely
That was cool.
Brady
No, Gordon tried to, but I basically ate, you know, six or seven hundred dollars in tickets.
Brett Vesely
You should take him to court.
Larry McFeely
Yes, I would.
Brady
Yes. I wrote still a letter.
Dick Toledo
That's what friends do.
Brett Vesely
Absolutely. Well, you had to spend all that money, take him to court.
Larry McFeely
Mine. Was Rammstein on, on the Family Values tour.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
That was just amazing because I believe Limp Bizkit was on that one too. And they were like one of the early ones, like with the big toilet bowl that Fred came out of.
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah.
Dick Toledo
Is that a Blockb?
Larry McFeely
No, it was at the Arenas downtown.
Dick Toledo
Oh, wow.
Larry McFeely
Whatever it was, I think it was awa then.
Brett Vesely
And you Rich.
Dick Toledo
The, our Christmas show is fantastic. But like some of the other big ones that, that I was just thinking of one. When I was, when I was in Seattle, we did, we had Bruce Springsteen. And I wasn't really that excited about seeing. I wasn't a Bruce Springsteen fan, but my program director at the time, we were out front. Like, we, like every radio station is at a big concert. You know, you're out front handing out stickers and doing whatnot. And my program director says, you going in? And I'm like, I don't think so. I, I, I'll just head back. He goes, no, you got to come in. And he was our new program director. He's. You've never seen him. And I'm like, no, I'm not a fan. He goes, come in.
Larry McFeely
You'll boss.
Dick Toledo
You'll be amazed.
Brett Vesely
Gonna see the Boss.
Dick Toledo
And I know I, I know he's cliche, but, but three hours. He was a fantastic show.
Brett Vesely
Where's the word when you need him?
Brady
Clearance Blow.
Dick Toledo
But that was a great show. That was a really great show that the biopic Jeremy Allen might see.
Brett Vesely
I watched it too. And I thought, after I watched, I thought, you really got to be a big fan.
Dick Toledo
A big spring go that deep to know what, what period that is.
Brett Vesely
Yep, yep, yep. Yeah, that period of his life, for sure.
Brady
I mean, I Didn't know he. He dealt with the, you know, depression as much as he.
Brett Vesely
Right. But yeah, after.
Larry McFeely
Listen to that album. I did, too.
Brady
I know.
Dick Toledo
Was just. We're getting comments from some texters that were in the cage for that corn show.
Brett Vesely
Best concert ever. Yeah. I mean, so cool. And we didn't. We have a suite at that.
Dick Toledo
We're up there. Yeah. Because I've still got. We got pictures with Brett. You know, we're all hanging out in the back. Eat with a big bucket of popcorn, I think so.
Brady
Cool.
Brett Vesely
And then. You know what? We probably can't have the conversation today because we got to get this thing closed up. But we might have to wait till another day because we'll probably be here all week doing this show together. Another great conversation is first concerts.
Dick Toledo
Oh, my God.
Brett Vesely
First concerts, Lover boy.
Dick Toledo
And quarter flash for me.
Brett Vesely
That's. That's for another day. We'll jump into that another time.
Larry McFeely
Okay.
Brett Vesely
Mine was. But we do have an entertainment drill. Right. We got to get that done before we get out of here today. Brady, it's time for an entertainment drill. Brady, Entertain me.
Brady
Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were presenting there at the British Academy Film Award Awards. I went down yesterday, and when they came up to do their presentation for best visual effects, I think Avatar, Fire, and Ash got it. Someone yelled the N word.
Larry McFeely
Oh, nuclear. That's what it was.
Brady
It was some guy that they did a movie on. He had Tourette's.
Brett Vesely
Oh, yes.
Brady
Yes. He was yelling throughout this whole ceremony. And there's a couple other celebrities that had to deal with it. Like, who was it? The. Alan Cumming came up there and said, by the way, you're hearing some slurs being yelled out or whatever. It's so and so. He's got the tourists.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, he's got the turrets.
Brady
He's. He's cleared. He can yell whatever he wants.
Brett Vesely
By the way, entertainment drill brought to you by Schwab Schmutz Schmoutz Laser Eye Center. May the Schwartz be with you. You too, Holmberg.
Brady
Don't know if you saw this, but Nicole Snooki from Jersey Shore.
Brett Vesely
I did it all for the Snooki.
Brady
She's got cervical cancer, stage one.
Brett Vesely
Okay, maybe I didn't do it all for the Snooki.
Brady
She posted a little video.
Larry McFeely
Way to go, Larry.
Brett Vesely
Sorry. Geez, poor girl.
Brady

Dick Toledo
formula that I saw that one with where he's an angel.
Brady
Michael.
Brett Vesely
That was actually a really, really good feel good movie.

Brady
What else you got hit? Matthew McConaughey thinks that AI actors will eventually be nominated for awards.

Dick Toledo
14 months ago we tried to put together those songs with duplicating these guys voices and, and it was fun then, right? It'll be, it'll be knockout this time. Like we try and do that again at Christmas, it'll be amazing.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, I had fun with my AI girlfriends all over the weekend.

Brett Vesely
It's not as easy as everybody thinks.
Eric
I could do that.
Dick Toledo
How long did it take you to adjust to the deuce? I mean you were already up early,
Larry McFeely
but probably about 60 to 90 days.
Dick Toledo
Yeah.
Larry McFeely
Just to get fully. Yeah, because for a while, don't forget I was doing overnights then staying with you guys. So I was going midnight to 10am
Dick Toledo

And we'll call Homeberg later this afternoon and see how he's doing and check up on him and see if he wants to come back tomorrow with his head down.
Dick Toledo

Brett Vesely
Okay. There you go.
Larry McFeely

Dick Toledo
Thanks Larry.
Brett Vesely
Hope you enjoyed Brady's morning cup tomorrow morning. Good morning. Gabagool with the Holmbergs. Morning sickness. Thanks everybody. We'll see you Arizona's most powerful, powerful rock radio station.
Eric
It's John Holberg here from the Morning Sickness. Time to talk about TVs Doug Hopkins of my home group and Doug Hopkins.com another satisfied listener called TVs Doug Hopkins and sold her home for cash. She reached out. Her name's Ashley. And Doug wants to make it simple. Buy your house for cash as is, you don't have to do anything. Just like Ashley, no strings attached. If he moves that price, you can get $5,000. Want to sell that place? Start the process online@doug hopkins.com or grab the phone and sing. It's John Holmberg here from the morning sickness for lifechangerloan.com I got a little note from Shane O', Grady, the head cheese over at Life Change Alone. He said this week three wonderful listeners all made the move to Life Change Alone. And each of them will be paying off their homes in under four years. That's right. And that's normal, too. So many people try to reflect finance. Go to lifechangerloan.com and see if it's right for you. Maybe you like paying debt off for 30 years and spending $200,000 extra in interest. I don't. I know a better way. And it's not magic. It's just math. Lifechangerloan.com.
Episode Theme:
With regular host John Holmberg sidelined due to recovery from retina surgery, the show takes on a looser, more nostalgic tone, driven by Brady, Brett Vesely, Dick Toledo, and Larry McFeely. "Brady’s Morning Cup" covers a post-Olympics weekend in Arizona, music festivals, the quirks of radio history, listener stories and trivia, and a classic segment replay.
[02:00] John Holmberg is recovering from retina surgery. The team discusses his (lack of) pain, misery at being stuck at home, and the uncharacteristically terse one-word text responses.
[24:10] Reflections on Holmberg’s usual high activity level and how frustrating it must be to be forced into inactivity.
[03:05 – 06:30] Reaction to USA Men's Hockey win (46 years after the Miracle on Ice, played at 6 AM AZ time). Bars opened early for fans, creating a sense of community.
[06:20] Biathlon coverage, including an odd sports confession from a bronze medalist and his on-air plea for girlfriend forgiveness.
$600/day for VIP; $800-$1000 for platinum.
Discussion of exclusive seating, steep drink prices ($16-20), side stands, energy of crowds on Mill Ave after the show.
Discussion of how Sublime now includes lead singer Bradley’s son.
“When the band was done Saturday, just zombie walk the sea of people. … It was just had a good energy, good buzz.” – Brady
Festival Music Lineup: 21 Pilots, Cage the Elephant, Vertical Horizon, and more.
Upcoming country lineup: Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley, Hardy, and others; shout out to Hardy's rock show and pyrotechnics.
Comments on the baseball vibe, famous players making appearances, and observations about the crowd.
[26:00+] Addressing angry listener texts and the myth of an “original” John-and-Brady two-man show.
[29:00] “Brady’s Big Fat Wedding” at the Celebrity Theatre: Memories of booking Seether, Static X, and a compilation video of comedians (Joe Rogan, Frank Caliendo, Norm Macdonald, Chelsea Handler, Bob Saget, etc.) giving marriage advice.
This episode is a prime example of what makes the HMS crew endearing to fans—local flavor, irreverence, nerdy music/festival knowledge, deep friendship, and the kind of oddball storytelling that only comes from decades in morning radio. Without Holmberg, the rest of the crew both honors his absence and turns up both the chaos and the fun, making “Brady’s Morning Cup” a worthy temporary transformation of Arizona’s #1 morning show.
