1. Introduction and Gene Hackman's Mysterious Passing

The episode kicks off with host John Holmberg delving into the recent news of Gene Hackman's unexpected death. At [00:33], John shares his skepticism regarding the official cause of death, carbon monoxide poisoning, suggesting possible foul play:

John: "Family suspects carbon monoxide poisoning. Oh, do you? Do you? That's convenient. I still say they're in on it. It does happen. [...] I suspect when dad and new wife die together, especially if it's some young spinner that he went and got some chippy. [...] That doesn't mean you did it, but you were, you know, you're complicit if you knew what was going on there." [07:19]

John speculates that the sudden passing of Gene Hackman and his younger wife, along with the demise of one of their three dogs, indicates potential orchestrated events. He references his experience with investigating worst-case scenarios, emphasizing his distrust of the official narrative.

2. Attorney General's Upcoming Release of Epstein Information

A significant portion of the discussion focuses on the imminent release of information related to Jeffrey Epstein by the Attorney General. At [05:38], John shares insights about the potential impact of the leaked Epstein list:

John: "Maybe he [Trump] is on this fly list. First things first. Nobody cares about the fly list that's been out. She's got details, and she's going to read them today." [05:38]

John contemplates the possibility of high-profile individuals, including former President Trump, being implicated in Epstein's network. He expresses skepticism about the motivations behind the release, suggesting that the Attorney General might have more significant revelations to disclose beyond Trump's alleged involvement.

3. Political Allegations and Public Figures

The conversation shifts to the broader implications of the Epstein case on political figures. John discusses the possible consequences for the Clintons and the general political landscape:

John: "Word, she’s got details that we haven't heard yet. Maybe it comes out, like, the last thing. [...] It feels like he's saying, we got him. Leak this. Get it out fast." [06:30]

The hosts debate the credibility and potential fallout from these allegations, highlighting the interconnectedness of various public figures with Epstein. They ponder the strategic timing of the revelations and the possible attempts to control the narrative.

4. Hypothetical Scenarios: Preventing Ravens from Winning the Super Bowl

In a lighter yet intriguing segment, John introduces a hypothetical scenario about preventing the Baltimore Ravens from securing future Super Bowl victories. At [03:02], he outlines a creative solution involving a Zoltar machine:

John: "I wouldn't blow Zoltar, but I blow Zoltar. And they would put that little ticket out, only you know that the Ravens can never win a Super bowl again for what you've done." [04:02]

This playful discussion showcases the hosts' ability to blend humor with pop culture references, as they imagine using mythical devices like Zoltar to influence sports outcomes.

5. Debating Disease Cures: Veganism vs. Monthly Shots

The episode takes a turn towards health and lifestyle debates as the hosts discuss potential cures for diseases. At [08:09], they engage in a lively debate over the merits of adopting a vegan diet versus taking a monthly health shot:

John: "What would you rather do, Brady, to get all your dreams or cures of anything? You want cured, you have to go vegan completely or gulp one shot a month." [08:09]

The conversation reveals personal preferences and the challenges associated with drastic lifestyle changes. John humorously reflects on his own dietary habits, emphasizing the difficulty of giving up beloved foods like barbecue and meat:

John: "I would make the biggest, juiciest steak and put it right in front of you. And I think I could even finish on it. And you'd be like, I'm eating that steak. I gotta have that meat. I don't care what's on there." [09:06]

This segment highlights the hosts' candidness and ability to engage in relatable, everyday topics with humor and insight.

6. Teasing Upcoming Sports Discussions

As the episode nears its conclusion, John hints at upcoming sports discussions, setting the stage for continued engagement with listeners. At [09:54], he mentions the involvement of "them Sons" and the anticipation of their game:

John: "It's 9:00. Dale, hell Stray is going to join us a little bit for sports talk. And here come them Sons. Boy, I don't even know if we want to talk about." [09:54]

This teaser serves to maintain listener interest and encourage tuning in for future episodes focused on sports talk.

Morning sickness. The old method of treatment for a person in this condition was to throw him in jail. Gets better every time I hear it. That's a new one from disturbed. I will not break. We're all you know, I've been doing the main amount of speculating on Gene Hackman's passing. 95 year old man with a 63 year old wife or however 623 and she's dead and that one of the three dogs is dead. And now the news story just popped up here. Family suspects carbon monoxide poisoning. Oh, do you? Do you? That's convenient. I still say they're in on it happens. It does happen. They interviewed the daughter, Elizabeth Jean Hackman. Oh, probably carbon monoxide poisoning. So sad that our dad and his wife, who's 30 years younger than him and a little younger than us too, are both gone and now the estate will go to us. Aww. Instead of her Kids are always the first ones. I watch too many murder shows. Always the first ones. I suspect when dad and new wife die together, especially if it's some young spinner that he went and got some chippy. He pulls some chippy out of the mix, it's either going to be the ex wife or it's going to be the kids if there's foul play, which to me seems likely. Well, you don't find a lot of dead bodies and one out of three dogs dead in the same house. If it's an equal amount of carbon monoxide. That's not a. You can't smell it. That's why you have to have sensors in your house for it. Surprisingly. And looking at the picture of his estate as well, it looked pretty new. Pretty sure they make you put carbon monoxide things in when you do. I know when I did the addition on my house they made me do the whole house. The city made me go put all new fire and carbon monoxide things all through the house just because that one room got added on. Hmm. Hmm. One of my eyebrows is off. But we're on to bigger and better things. Brett.

[Brady]

Yes.

[John]

Margot Robbie Free baby wants to do a little snowplow action.

[Dale]

Snowball.

[John]

It's a snowplow, too. Brady, what do you got?

[Brady]

No, I'm out.

[John]

Not doing it.

[Brady]

I'm out.

[John]

Even Margot Robbie.

[Brady]

I'm out.

[Dale]

With Margot Robbie.

[John]

Truffle butter.

[Brady]

She wants. She wants a twink. She can take a twink.

[John]

She's not twinking.

[Brady]

You just feel. Oh, for Christ's twinking.

[John]

This one says. John, I got a new scenario for you. Would you brush with Dale's baby batter if it meant the Ravens never win another super bowl three times a day?

[Brady]

Dale's gonna be on top of the console when he walks in today.

[John]

Hey, Johnny, I guess you said you do. Well, if he could show me in some wizard crystal ball, the guarantee, okay, I would do that. But if the. If it was wrong and the Ravens ever did win a Super Bowl, Dale, like, his whole body explodes and then reanimates and explodes, and that's all he feels for eternity. I'd have to have some sort of guarantee that Dale is injured for life. But absolutely for the. I would do a lot of stuff to guarantee that the Ravens never win it again. And it would never be known. It would be my moment with, you know, Zoltan. There's Zoltar, which is the one that made Tom Hanks big.

[Brady]

Zoltar.

[John]

Zoltar.

[Brady]

Zoltan's for 500.

[John]

Zoltan's drummer. 500.

[Brady]

That's right.

[John]

I wouldn't blow Zoltan, but I blow Zoltar. And they would put that little ticket out, only you know that the Ravens can never win a Super bowl again for what you've done.

[Brady]

Thomas wants to know, Brady, would you take your load if Porkopolis was revived.

[John]

As a reward and franchised out almost like McDonald's?

[Dale]

No.

[John]

What?

[Brady]

Man, you're.

[John]

You're a liar. First of all, if you had 20 locations of Porkopolis thriving, and all you had to do is one of your own. Go. Why do you say no to start, though? Why do you have to?

[Dale]

That's fun to see.

[John]

No, it's. No, it doesn't rise. It's a fear. It's a fear of the truth. Silly bastard. Anyway, Gene Hackman's dad. Everybody keeps talking about that. I get it. You just woke up and you're like, gene Hackman's dead.

[Dale]

We know about that not one Michelle Trachtenberg.

[John]

Nobody has. Yeah. Nobody has emailed me and said, did you hear about the girl from Euro Trip? Nope. I know she's dead, too. Who are you? Yeah, but again, I like the two theories. I like the one that these people came up with that the Epstein list goes out today, and there's a guy emailing me going, you don't think Trump's going to be on that list? You're crazy. Maybe he is, but I think Trump's people are too excited about bringing it to our attention. They've got something more important than Trump being on that list that they can't wait to let out of the bag. They cannot wait to let that cat out of the bag to say, we found something. We can't wait to tell the world about it. Maybe it means Trump's on this fly list. First things first. Nobody cares about the fly list that's been out. She's got details, and she's going to read them today.

[Dale]

I mean, and then the fact that there was some denying going on, I think even, you know, Clinton at first, like, yeah, I knew him. I went over there and sure. Get a seat named after.

[John]

Sure.

[Brady]

I think what they need to do is find out where the Clintons are today.

[John]

That's the thing. The allegations are for that in Washington, D.C. oh, man. Because they'll be on top.

[Brady]

Yep.

[John]

Being a sniper's nest. The. The thing that I read this morning was that she's got allegations that she's gonna spill, not just necessarily people.

[Dale]

Yeah.

[John]

So she's got details that we haven't heard yet. Maybe it comes out, like, the last thing. The Epstein thing was like, this big list, and everybody's like, yeah, we kind of knew all these people were there. The list wasn't unimpressed. But now she's got like. And there's that whole moment where that had to be, hey, look what I've got. And they're like, we got them. And I don't know who. I don't know who they are, but it feels like he's saying, we got him. Leak this. Get it out fast.

[Dale]

So it's kind of like the white party did. He would have.

[John]

Yeah.

[Dale]

There's a lot of people that went to him.

[John]

That doesn't mean you did it, but you were. You know, you're. You're complicit if you knew what was going on there. It doesn't help you out to be multiple trips to the Epstein island and then find out that 250 different incidents occurred and the people that were part of this were always there. And you knew, like some fish going. I mean, they. They called it the Lolita Airlines. That one thing Trump had when he had. The thing is, you know, we love. We love him. He's a great guy. Loves. Loves the ladies. Young, young girls. That's an actual clip of Donald Trump talking about Jeffrey Epstein, where he says he likes him young. I mean, he didn't say how young, right? He didn't. Yeah, we all love him young.

[Brady]

Not that young.

[John]

Gene Hackman loved them young.

[Brady]

Yeah, exactly.

[John]

And that's why his kids killed him and his sister, their stepmom. When your stepmom's your age and your dad made $60 million, good chance stepmom's going to die the same day as dad. And that just happened. I'm just. I'd be a good investigator because I take worst case scenario and I work back. I don't give benefit of the doubt. That's not good investigating. You assume horrible, hope for the best. And I'm looking at this, and I'm like, oh, there's some fishy potential here. They tried to do that and then immediately come out the night. Oh, we went to carbon monoxide is what we think. Oh, do you. How'd the other two dogs make it? You know, they swallowed my dad's yummy once, and I think it cured him. Your face.

[Dale]

Could have been the older dog sleeps in the bed with him.

[Brady]

Let's test this one.

[John]

Let's test this one out. What does it cure, though? What would you rather do, Brady, to get all your dreams or cures of anything? You want cured, you have to go vegan completely or gulp one shot a month.

[Dale]

Vegan, you'd go vegan.

[John]

Never hurt. No. A shot. You'd give up all that barbecue and all that meat because you won't do this.

[Brady]

See, there's smoked Brussels sprouts on the smoker.

[Dale]

I like to believe I could do that.

[John]

You could not.

[Dale]

He'd like to believe it.

[John]

You would like to believe it.

[Brady]

He'd like to believe Santa Claus was real.

[John]

Idiot. That's just idiot. Anyway, long story.

[Dale]

Yeah, I could do it. Well, I could do either one.

[John]

Vegan.

[Dale]

No, not vegan.

[John]

You couldn't. Well, then you couldn't do either one. I could do either one vegan. No, not that one.

[Dale]

You know what? I'll do both.

[John]

I can do vegan. You could. No, do the other one. Just that you couldn't do vegan. You would kill yourself. I'll tell you, I know exactly how I. I figured you'd say you go vegan. You know what I would do? I'd make the biggest, juiciest steak and put it right in front of you. And I think I could even finish on it. And you'd be like, I'm eating that steak. I gotta have that meat. I don't care what's on there.

[Dale]

And damn it, dairy, too.

[Brady]

Johnny style, no dairy.

[John]

Yeah, you get rid of all. It depends on how strong you are. Vegetarian versus vegan. Me too. Yeah, because you can't have eggs and butter. Yeah. Ice cream. You. No way. It's 9:00. Dale, hell Stray is going to join us a little bit for sports talk. And here come them Sons. Boy, I don't even know if we want to talk about.

[Brady]

There go them sons.

[John]

Going to their game tonight. Three. Three games the next four days. A buoy. Dale's gonna join us in just a little bit. It's 98 KUPD.

[Dick Toledo]

Hey, it's not weird.

[John]

It's pretty cool, actually.

[Dale]

No membership fees.

[John]

I have heard enough of this.
