Episode Overview

This condensed Tuesday edition dives into the shifting landscape of culture, comedy, and outrage—both on and off the internet. The hosts discuss the absurdities of cancel culture, people's changing tolerance for dark humor, the real reasons men attend opera or ballet, modern etiquette, and the pitfalls of letter-writing complaints in the digital age. There's also listener mail, pop culture news, and plenty of banter—all laced with Holmberg's trademark irreverence and the crew's signature self-deprecating wit.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Outrage, Opera, and Casual Dislike

Timestamps: [01:10]–[06:43]

• Holmberg rails against today’s culture—where you "aren't allowed to not like something anymore."

  • Example: Public backlash against actor Timothy Chalamet for saying opera isn't his thing—Holmberg finds this overblown and attacks the pretense behind high art.

    "The only reason men go is they're gay or their wife made them." — John Holmberg [03:02]

  • Men going to ballet/opera? "We do it to get laid. We do it for you." ([03:02])

• Reality of attending opera and ballet.

  • The team discusses how most men find these experiences boring or insufferable, admitting they may feign enjoyment for their partners or to seem cultured.

    "Have you ever been? The fastest way to hate opera is to go to one." — John Holmberg [02:11]

• Shakespeare and the Pretense of Culture.

  • Complaints that most people haven't really read (or understood) Shakespeare—people just pretend for the social cachet.

    "If Shakespeare's language was so flowery and beautiful, we'd still do it." — John Holmberg [06:20]

---

2. Listener Mail: Outrage and Letters in the Internet Age

Timestamps: [11:17]–[19:50]

• Reading a listener email about laughing at the show in public.

  • Discusses how context for laughter has changed—public laughter in your car is now seen as unhinged.

• Revisiting past "Restless Leg Rachel" and menopause jokes.

  • Listeners get angry at the show's irreverence, but Holmberg posits it's futile in the algorithm-powered age.

    "Is there ever been anything that’s made Hitler more hilarious?" — John Holmberg [13:53]

  • The internet milks even the most taboo subjects for laughs (e.g., AI creating Hitler memes).

• Futility of complaint letters in the internet age.

  • Holmberg claims letter writers have "lost the fight"—the sheer volume and brutality of online content dwarfs individual complaints.

    "I think the days of slamming out an angry email... those days are over. Nobody’s gonna pay attention to you anymore. You’re a relic. You’re lost in time." — John Holmberg [16:43]

---

3. Dark Humor, Social Taboos, and the Ethics of Trolling

Timestamps: [17:30]–[22:46]

• Comedy about sensitive topics (disabilities, menopause, Hitler) and defense of dark humor.
  • The team teases Brady for sharing videos of people with disabilities, labeling him the "'cripple hater'... but it's hysterical.”

    “Brady, there's comedy cripples. Thank you.” — John Holmberg [19:03]

  • They argue that if content is public, it's fair game for comedy.

---

4. Relationship Dilemmas & ‘Limerence’

Timestamps: [22:47]–[31:11]

• Listener Email: A man is ghosted by a woman after 18 months of pursuit and one night together.

  • Panel debates what triggered her abrupt departure—theories range from something off in his bathroom/medicine cabinet to her own sudden emotional doubt.

    "Your best foot forward has to be your kitchen and your bathroom." — John Holmberg [25:15]

• Introduction of the concept 'limerence':

  • An overwhelming, infatuation-like emotional state—often confuses sex or a crush for love.

    "Limerence is a scary... your body releases oxytocin and stuff and makes you feel like you're on drugs when you're just talking to her." — John Holmberg [27:12]

  • Advice: "She did you a favor. She doesn’t respect you enough to even tell you what happened. Good." ([30:26])

---

5. Pop Culture Oddities: Cereal Etiquette & Return of Old Action Stars

Timestamps: [33:06]–[50:40]

• British etiquette expert advises eating cereal with a fork and spoon.

  • Crew relentlessly mocks the advice and the absurdity of high etiquette for lowbrow food.

    "Is this video trying to give me hiv? Well, how gay can this get?" — John Holmberg [34:41]

  • Sarcastic banter around other etiquette "tips" saturates the segment.

• Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone rebooting old action franchises.

  • Universal skepticism: "All ideas are bad ideas. We liked it. Leave it alone." — John Holmberg [49:11]
  • More age jokes: "Conan the hospice-arian... checking into hospice and I'm going to kick ass at it." ([50:12])

---

6. Gun Rights, Mass Shootings & Paintball Controversy

Timestamps: [41:40]–[47:33]

• Paintball shooting at a mosque in Phoenix sparks conversation on mass shootings and “progress” in gun violence.
  • Holmberg skewers both the shooter and the gun control debate, noting that if the worst criminals do is shoot paintballs, maybe that's progress.

    "Paintball guns, the future of mass shootings. That’s what we all got our fingers crossed for." — John Holmberg [44:16]

  • Wry commentary about the deviance of the shooter's timing and a Muslim named Berkovich:

    "Call me a bigot, but I don't think of a lot of Muhammad Berkovich's." — John Holmberg [45:07]

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On fake high-culture appreciation:
  "Nobody's sitting around Buffalo Wild Wings going, 'Guys, after the game, you wanna hit some ballet?'" — John Holmberg [03:02]

• On outrage/letter writers:
  "Those days are over. Nobody’s gonna pay attention to you anymore. You’re a relic." — John Holmberg [16:43]

• On etiquette expert's cereal suggestion:
  "Is this video trying to give me HIV? Well, how gay can this get?" — John Holmberg [34:41]

• On old action stars returning:
  "Conan the hospice-arian, I'm checking into hospice and I'm going to kick ass at it." — John Holmberg [50:12]

• On changing culture:
  "Deep down, everyone's a butthole. Period." — Listener Caitlin Coon, read by Holmberg [21:42]

---

Episode Structure & Flow

• Irreverent banter (true to the show's style)—nothing is off-limits.
• Transitions between mailbag, current events, and cultural commentary keep the energy fast and flowing.
• Longform comedic riffs (e.g., on etiquette, relationship advice, old movies) break up the more pointed social observations.

---

For Listeners Who Missed It

• This episode is quintessential Holmberg: rapid-fire, dark, touching every third-rail topic while lampooning both sides of the cultural divide.
• If you love sarcastic takes on “wokeness,” etiquette, pop culture, and the hypocrisy of outrage, this one offers huge laughs and some sly wisdom—best enjoyed with your sense of humor switched to “dark and self-deprecating.”

[John Holmberg]

98kupd.com I love what's this? Bernie and I were talking about it off here. You're not allowed to not like something anymore. Just casually. Timothy Chalamet, while the war rages on and people like the View is the one that confuses me most. They're always mad about topics and stuff that seem to be current, I guess. And right now they should be angry at war, right? Like, that's the thing they should be most mad at or concerned with. The thing they were most mad at is Timothy Chalamet saying he's not a big fan of opera. He said he wants to keep the theaters alive and people going to movies, and that's a big deal. He goes, I don't want to be, you know, sitting back trying to. I want to keep it alive. Not like ballet or the opera or something like that, you know, where it's just a struggle to keep it going. And they're like, oh, he's unrefined piece of garbage. Like, what? He doesn't like ballet and opera. Most regular dudes don't, right? Yeah, it's a very small percentage of people that are huge into the ballet or opera. Have you ever been the fastest way to hate the opera is to go to one. Did you go, Oh, I went to an opera a long time ago. Because, you know, Brett, I laid. It's easy. I did.

[Brett Vesely]

Okay.

[John Holmberg]

It's easy to say yes. Very much. It worked. Yeah. Ye. Look, I struggled through it then I was less than honest afterwards about it being the least entertaining thing I've ever dealt with in my life. I had easier time following Inception than it. What the hell's going on? You can't tell the love in his heart for that. No. They're just singing in Italian. Like, guy's got a good voice. But enough with the yelling.

[Co-host/Guest]

So it all. For him, it all started. He was on the podcast with Matthew McConaughey.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Co-host/Guest]

And he says, the reason I didn't go down there one is I'm into the arts, but not that much in the arts because there's no money in opera and ballet.

[John Holmberg]

Right. And he even said it. He goes, it's just going to be hard for. I don't want the theater to fall into the niche category of, like, trying to keep. And everybody's like, oh, it's been around for 500 years. Yeah. And the only reason men go is gay or their wife made them. Yeah. Yeah. No man is like, nobody's sitting around Buffalo Wild Wings going, guys, after the game, you know, hit some ballet. You don't see five dudes at a ballet going in together. It's not a thing. We do it to get laid. We do it for you.

[Brett Vesely]

Ladies, no one's ever come to studio here, so, guys, come on.

[Co-host/Guest]

Come.

[John Holmberg]

Have you guys seen Shiny? It's amazing. Me and my bros went, what, you're gay? Not gay. Me Banging that boy robot yesterday. A whole lot less gay than just guys tailgating at the Shin Yoon. And it might be a great show. That's why I went to the opera. Two reasons. A delayed. I knew it was gonna pay off. Possibly with. And that was the one thing she knew. She knew I would. That's the only reason guys go. That's that south park episode about musicals. It's like they're all loaded with subliminal advertising to make women horny. And every guy gets a roadie on the way home. It's a whole episode. Like, did you know about this with Broadway? The whole thing's just littered with subliminal messages. That's why women love it so much. It's all. And it gets. And they'll blow you on the way home. And so guys started to love the theater because they realized, oh, my God, this is Guaranteed roadie. I think opera's the same way. I don't know what they're singing, but I'm pretty sure it just plants messages in women's heads to make them plant things in their heads. But I wanted to see for myself. It's easy, Brett, to sit back, say, oh, I hate that. But you never actually experienced it, right? Yeah, you can. People don't like things they don't understand because it's easier. So I went and I realized that I hate it for real too. I don't. It wasn't about like just assuming I was gonna actually hate. Didn't make me more or less refined. I just. I hated it. I thought it was. It was like the. The WNBA of. Of theater. Boring.

[Co-host/Guest]

I know you might surprise you, but I. I dozed off a little bit at the optimum.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know how.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah, I know.

[John Holmberg]

Because it's a lot of screaming now I don't.

[Co-host/Guest]

I like the screaming woke me up.

[John Holmberg]

I like theater. I'll see some great plays. But it's. It's still pulling teeth to get me to go to like I'm not going to all of them.

[Brett Vesely]

Like the Book of Mormons.

[John Holmberg]

Hilarious. And I did enjoy Madame Butterfly. That was beautiful. It's a beautiful story. And they're doing a lot of singing in that too. But you know, let's get with you. You know, it's a tougher sell, but

[Co-host/Guest]

again, when it was over was tough.

[John Holmberg]

Shakespeare's impossible to go to. You don't know and. No, Shakespeare's the Bible. Everybody pretends they've read it and understood it, but nobody's gotten through that.

[Co-host/Guest]

I got lectured on it about two weeks ago. He invented language. The English language.

[John Holmberg]

Who's talking to you about.

[Co-host/Guest]

Nobody uses my brother in law's his. His sister who comes from a theater back.

[John Holmberg]

All you have to do when somebody's talking about that like that especially a guy like you is just gonna. And I've grown tired of you and walk away from them because their conversation skills suck. If you're still selling me Shakespeare

[Co-host/Guest]

so beautiful.

[John Holmberg]

Probably I don't know, I don't understand it. And then they get high and mighty about it like ah, you and then you just go, I've grown tired of this conversation. I'm going somewhere else with someone who's interesting. If Shakespeare was so great, we'd still talk like that. I stand by that. If Shakespeare's language was so flowering beautiful, we'd still do it.

[Brett Vesely]

I'd like to argue that.

[John Holmberg]

But you can't you can't. It's impossible.

[Co-host/Guest]

She point out. She did point out a couple of things. That he invented a couple of words. Yeah, yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Invented a ton of stuff. So what?

[Co-host/Guest]

I can't remember.

[John Holmberg]

Eventually some people, like, you know, there's a couple of them. He invented hie, which is high, but it means let's go. Or kind of like get a move on or something like that. It's like, so what? And again, proof. No one ever read it. He added in gibberish at the time. If it wasn't a word people had to read and go, what the hell is this? This one? Does anybody know what this means? Only Shakespeare knows. And then. Come on. That's like the Helen Keller myth that she ever even wrote a book or had a language with her fist in her hand, that none of that was real.

[Co-host/Guest]

Whatchamacallit.

[John Holmberg]

You can't read a book. Like, if you wrote. If Brady wrote a book right now, there'd be plenty of words in there you'd never seen before. Now they're just misspellings. But let's play pretend that Brady's trying to invent words. You'd read it and you go, hey, there's like 10 or 11 things in here that don't make any sense. You'd have to ask the author. Back then, there wasn't an Internet or a phone or anything else. So if he's just thrown in words only he knows, any decent reviewer of a book would be like, every once in a while, it's just like a word that doesn't exist. He's a retarded person. I think, dad, with your Shakespeare, nobody's read it. Bible, Shakespeare, nobody's actually read either of them. They just play for 10. They've been. They've been told by teachers or. Or pastors or anything else that this is what you. This is all you need to know. You've been given the notes.

[Brett Vesely]

I don't even think the junior high and high school teachers have read it,

[John Holmberg]

because none of us have.

[Brett Vesely]

And we're just BS and through.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, exactly. If any high school student wants to explode the education system, actually read Shakespeare, the whole thing, read it. Nobody's ever done it. The teachers haven't done it. The teachers that taught them haven't done it. You go back to maybe the last person actually read Shakespeare. Like, read it, not acted it out. Read it was. It was probably like 1450. Probably.

[Co-host/Guest]

I got an award in high school for Shakespeare. I acted out scene, but I totally modified it.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, what you were. Was what the teacher's dream because you were the comedic deflection to any questions about the book that that teacher had also not ever read. I hard pressed to find one public school teacher that's actually read Shakespeare. Not a thing. You were told what it is by someone else and they were told by someone else all the way back to maybe Shakespeare himself who actually I think it just got a He's like the luckiest author ever. Romeo and Juliet was the big sell. They made a movie out of it. They tried and they did it a couple of times.

[Brett Vesely]

Vesely from the Morning Sickness. And if you love great sound in

[John Holmberg]

your vehicle like we do, you gotta check out Quality Car Stereo.

[Brett Vesely]

looks, trust us, you'll hear the difference immediately.

[John Holmberg]

Go to the website right now. Qualitycarsterioaz.com Holmberg's Morning Sickness. All right, we'll start with this one because this is a good one. First says, hey, Holmberg. Hey, man. About a week ago on the show. Or I said, I'm about a week behind on the show and just got up to the Rachel episode and I'm dead. We don't have episodes.

[Brett Vesely]

Podcast episodes.

[John Holmberg]

Apparently there are podcasts you can go back to show. Graham, come on. Yeah, it is part of the. The delic. Precious future. It's the time machine of my emails. Is like I was listening the other day to a thing about a week. I don't remember the other day or a week ago, but I do remember big fat restless leg Rachel, who's mad at everything. Restless leg syndrome. And was it menopause she was off on too? I think she got mad at that as well. I don't remember. Says, I am dead. I'm howling in my car. No one laughs the way I did it. 2:00 clock in the afternoon. I look like an insane person. I like the old days when all there was was morning shows in your car and if you saw someone laughing like that, you just assume they were listening to a show and maybe you'd thumb around to try to find out what they were laughing at. But now I just look like I'm the joker. I was at a stoplight and the car next to me looked over like I was a mental patient. Also, people like Rachel. She hated what you said about her and her giant fat legs being restless. I wonder what she does when she scrolls the Internet. That's a good point. So I don't understand the world's letter writers these days. Isn't it clear that the letter writer has lost the fight? The Internet does horrible things. There's no point to complain. Men, women, kids, whites, blacks, Jews, it doesn't matter. I say this full knowing that Brett is in the room right now. Did any of us whites know about the fire alarm chirp before Instagram? I didn't. Maybe they're trying 3% it wasn't. Maybe it wasn't a reference people understood. No, I didn't. Said I think the Internet's bringing us closer. Anyway, keep up the great work and being brave enough to tell the world SeaWorlds to stuff sand up their assigned Yarborough. Yarborough was a guy who emailed before about wanting to leave his wife, and now he's just having the time of his life at 2 in the afternoon. It is true if you see somebody laughing in their car by themselves in the afternoon, it's crazy. You do look crazy. And I think you can do it in the morning. Like, you just assume, oh, they must be listening to something, like. But never in the afternoon have you, like, just been busting up laughing.

[Co-host/Guest]

It's kind of entertaining in a way. Same with a person just belting away, singing.

[John Holmberg]

I do that all the time. But that's fine because that makes sense. Of course there's songs, but who's entertaining you that. What do you listen? Like, 2pm is not like howling alone. Funny time. It's usually like you're either in the throes of your day or you're ending it and you're just trying to look crazy. You look like an insane person. But he's right when he brings up, you know, we had that, the menopause talk. We had Rachel and her restless legs and who's the other Catherine that was

[Brett Vesely]

the one sticking up for.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, she was mad about how fat Rachel was for Rachel. And that lady last week that was like, hey, putting a one to euthanize women on menopause. I know you say they're jokes, but that's terrible. I'm like, it's pretty good, right? But what is? Yeah, because I'll say this out loud. I'm not afraid of it. Has the Internet is there. Is there ever been anything that's made Hitler more hilarious? It's terrible to say it, but I'm not the one doing it. But Hitler is all over the Internet. And the second we had AI to make it, like we made him do

[Co-host/Guest]

skateboard before that, would that be Mel Brooks?

[John Holmberg]

Well, the risk, but I mean, no. Hitler on ice, like, he made Hitler. This is taking the actual Hitler and putting him in funny situations like we can now. AI. And the first thing we did as a society that's supposedly always clutching its pearls over words we don't like, was to take Hitler and make him an Indianapolis cult for a second. Doing a post game press conference.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

And there wasn't a soul that didn't think that was hilarious. So. Yeah. How are you mad at something you heard on the radio?

[Commercial Announcer]

What?

[John Holmberg]

How do those people react when the Internet punches them? Because there's been stuff where I'm watching the Internet. My, is this terrible. The Internet's a horrible place. But it, like, it has to. I think he's right. I think the letter writers have law. Like, there's no strength in your letter writing anymore for just your singular complaint. If somebody says something like, you know, all people from Jack Manistan should be killed immediately. And he's serious about it. You're like, okay, this guy's calling for murder. That's different. But somebody just says something you don't like, your letter writing is over. The whole Internet is stuff people don't like. Maybe it's just algorithms created whole Karen. Yeah, but they're dead. They're gone. Like, there's no Karen has no chance.

[Co-host/Guest]

He rolls on to the next thing.

[John Holmberg]

Well, because the Internet, my Internet, my scrolling, is one horrible thing after another. Keep in mind people who are firing off an angry email about restless leg syndrome to a guy who said something you didn't like. There is an entire hilarious genre of Instagram videos of hot girls with down syndrome, and they're not real girls with great bodies have decided that it would be great to filter their face as down syndrome. By the way, someone invented down syndrome filter for our amusement. Pretty funny. Meanwhile, you wasted a few minutes of your day to fire off a thing about restless leg syndrome. That one guy said something you didn't like. The whole world loves. Not only is it funny, those girls are hot.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

And you'll look past the downs part. It's crazy. There's so much stuff every day I see where I wonder, how can anyone get up in arms about anything someone says in a fashion that's a joke or just, like, in passing? I understand the ramifications of truly terrible stuff, you know, but that's also kind of subjective. But, yeah, I don't. I think. I think Yarborough's right. I think the days of slamming out an angry email about something you just didn't like. Those days are over. Nobody's gonna pay attention to you anymore. You're. You're a relic. You're lost in time.

[Co-host/Guest]

Well, prepare for the. The onslaught of comments not going your way.

[John Holmberg]

You're not gonna win it. Yeah, those days of you winning that argument are. No, they're no longer.

[Co-host/Guest]

I think that's what Reddit's for.

[John Holmberg]

I think you get some radio shows that get scared. Frank used to Cali Anders get scared at comments and saying, I can't believe he did that. And it would make him nervous because he thought his money was. But I don't think those people have cash anymore. Scotty mails and he said, john, you sound old and you're the host of a podcast. I constantly laugh in the store or while working. Duncan Tressel family hour. Duncan's great. Says also the morning sickness podcast. All times are good for laughing. I agree with that. But it does look crazy in your car at 2 in the afternoon, they'd just be losing it. Yeah, I think that's. It's a big message to. Yeah, it's a big message to everybody that if you were gonna. If Brett says something you just didn't like about. I don't know, Brett could say some stuff. Let's go with. Brady says something you just don't like. Brett's probably one you could probably write a letter about, but he keeps it to himself. But not on the Internet, you don't. You pass on someone else's horrific creations. And I'm gonna be the first to say it. Thank you. It makes my day better to know that that kind of darkness is out there and I'm not creating it. There's some hilarious stuff. Brady is the biggest, like, I'm gonna call it cripple hater I've ever seen in my life. You find the cripple videos.

[Co-host/Guest]

I don't know why you say it's

[John Holmberg]

hating because it's hysterical. You're making fun of them, and I think it's great. And Brady, there's comedy cripples. Thank you. Yeah, but they're not being comedian.

[Brett Vesely]

Comedian cripples.

[John Holmberg]

I like that. Yeah. You know what's great about his defense? He basically just confirmed what I said. Exactly. Because those people aren't trying to be funny. They're just being crippled. And I don't know.

[Co-host/Guest]

I've seen a couple trying to be.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're not. They're actually just trying to get from A to B. But they walk like snails. And you like to send that to people going, check it out. Would you do her? And that's. Don't act all innocent. Like it's all some science experiment said.

[Co-host/Guest]

What'd you do?

[John Holmberg]

You have said it.

[Co-host/Guest]

I just send it to you.

[John Holmberg]

And what I say is, kill it.

[Co-host/Guest]

Send the hammer.

[Brett Vesely]

Kill that thing.

[John Holmberg]

Kill that back. And I put a hammer emoji. Like, you got to kill that. It's not. Shouldn't be part of our society. The ones Brady finds are way beyond, like, functional. Would you nail it? Nice, though, right? I'm like, yeah, Brady's as dark as anybody else writing letters to him.

[Co-host/Guest]

Fair game. They put it up there.

[John Holmberg]

Exactly. They didn't. Someone else did. But like you said, there's comedy and cripples for you. When you see one, you think it's hysterical that they're going through that and you send it to us. That's your thing. You're my guy. When I see Brady sent me a link, usually I know it's somebody less like somebody Mother Teresa would have like wrapped up and put into her little house of the dying. And usually they're trying to like cross a road or something. They're just doing something mundane. But you just are. And I can just hear you howling at home. He ain't got no legs. And it looked like they started to grow and then quit like a fish. I'm gonna send this to John.

[Brett Vesely]

Brady's being called out now.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, well, because he knows finally, we want you to be you, Brady. True you. True blue you. I'm gonna make shirts. There's comedy in them. Thar cripples. You're just a comedy mind. Nobody's going after. Let me film you doing stuff. All right. This dude emailed in and he's got. This is tough. We've all. Well, maybe I don't have. None of us have been through this. So the girl I have spent the last year and a half thinking about fawning over literally 18 months finally broke down about a month ago and we went out and had a great time. I have slow played this girl for so long and thought about her all day, every day. The date was amazing. I think about her. I'm melting. I feel like I'm in love and I know I'm not, but it's just nuts. That's called limerence. Look it up. It's real. She's even better than I imagined while I was waiting for her. We've gone out four more times since the initial date. Finally, she came back to my house last week and we made out on the couch and then had incredible sex. Best of my life. She said it was incredible too. We kissed after we did it again. I held her in my arms. Then she got up and went to the bathroom and came out crying and said, I can't do this. I can't do this with you. Put her clothes on and left. And I haven't heard from her since. What happened? I'm begging you, Hannah, tell me what happened. She won't answer my texts. I know, I know. Christ. She won't answer my texts. She's never around when I want her be at home. I don't know what to do. I'm so depressed. I've missed work over this. Help me justice. What?

[Co-host/Guest]

What were you sighing about? You know the answer to this.

[Brett Vesely]

No, I don't know the answer to this. But you got yours. You're done.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah, it's a problem.

[John Holmberg]

Consider yourself.

[Brett Vesely]

You finally got in there drawers and you're good.

[John Holmberg]

18 months to get laid. Seems like.

[Brett Vesely]

Seems like a hell of a lot of for one.

[John Holmberg]

One off the investment, but I mean, you still got what you wish you got.

[Brett Vesely]

ROI on that.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Co-host/Guest]

I'm just gonna say you're gonna. You're gonna have that mystery happen to you one time or another.

[John Holmberg]

I know what it is.

[Co-host/Guest]

I bet you might not. I mean, you'll just go through a thing. You'll Never get the answer.

[John Holmberg]

I know what it is.

[Brett Vesely]

She went through the medicine cabinet. There you go.

[John Holmberg]

That. You guys saw something in the bathroom. You got something in there. Or your bathroom's dirty. Chick will leave if you've got dirty bathroom. Like if you had a turd floater in there. And she saw that. And that's your best foot forward. Your best foot forward has to be your kitchen and your bathroom. It has got to 100. Got to be. And you bring a woman back to your house and she doesn't see the bathroom first. And then she goes into your. Like, maybe she'll go into that. That hallway bathroom that you don't use. You're like, oh, this one's okay. But she goes into your bathroom in the master. And it is, you know, poop stains and hairs from shaving all over the place. Bathrooms I won't pee in. I wouldn't.

[Co-host/Guest]

It can also take just one text.

[John Holmberg]

But she. There was no time for that.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah.

[Brett Vesely]

She was just in the bathroom.

[Co-host/Guest]

Or it could just be. Not even that. Now all of a sudden, she starts thinking about it. I'm not ready for this, Brady.

[John Holmberg]

This.

[Co-host/Guest]

They're women.

[Brett Vesely]

18 months. She better know better.

[John Holmberg]

Broke up with out for 18 months.

[Brett Vesely]

Well, it took her 18 months to get him.

[John Holmberg]

He's been. He's been working on this for 18 months. So she was slow playing him. He said he was slow playing. She was slow playing him. Like, she's probably got stuff going on or. 18 months. A long time. She was naked and told him, I can't do this. Something's in your medicine, so.

[Brett Vesely]

Well, no, he did get his, though.

[John Holmberg]

Oh. He banged her a couple of times, according to the email. Right. Move on. That's all Brett's looking for. That's a long term relationship. You're done here.

[Co-host/Guest]

That's easier said than done. Brett. You've been putting 18 months into it.

[Commercial Announcer]

You're.

[John Holmberg]

He's in limerence, too. Limerence is a scary.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yep.

[John Holmberg]

People lose. I've been watching TV about that. I saw an episode on it. Limerence. You can have it for stuff, too. You make an irrational jump.

[Brett Vesely]

Limerence.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Limerence is like. You think, we've all done it. It's usually like high school where you go through that emotional, like, yo, she's got everything. Like, this is it. I love her. And it's immediate. Like your body releases oxytocin and stuff and makes you feel like you're on drugs when you're just talking to her.

[Brett Vesely]

Okay.

[John Holmberg]

And then you. But so you confuse. You confuse that with emotion. Well, it's. It's legit, but you confuse it with emotion, and then it usually comes either crashing down or it just goes away. But you've put so much time and energy into this that you have confused. It's the same way when women do it all the time when they confuse sex with love. Younger women, a lot. When you'd bang them, and the next thing you know, they get crazy. I thought we were in love. I thought this was a thing, and they're. Oh, read about it. It's a scary thing. I don't know. I was watching Dr. Phil or something once, and that one always resonated with me because I was guilty of that all the time. When I was younger, I would get, like, a crush on a girl, and it would just end me because in my head, I'd play forward all these, like, oh, if she was just like. Next thing you know, I'm in this relationship, and she's not even talking to me, and my brain is, like, heavy in love. And just to feel that she knew. And you do that to yourself.

[Co-host/Guest]

But this is all that herpes, man.

[John Holmberg]

Well, if you didn't tell her about your herpes, you're an. But she's. There's. I'm with Brett. There's something in that medicine cabinet that triggered her. Or your bathroom's a disaster. There's something you're not cleaning that you. You know. You know what the big thing is? The toilet seat. You can wipe the edges if you've got that crusty yellow brown around the hinges of the seat. Dudes. Dudes don't clean that underneath. Oh, yeah. Or it's just like the back edge. Like, you might do a quick, quick swipe. Yeah. And make it. And you think, well, there's nothing here but that there's something going on in your bathroom. Girls don't go to the bathroom and come out breaking up naked after. If she said, oh, that was amazing, and made out with you, and then got up, went to the bathroom, came out crying. Either she lied about the sex or something going on there.

[Brett Vesely]

Maybe Keyshawn was texting her while she was in the bathroom.

[John Holmberg]

Did she have her phone with her?

[Co-host/Guest]

That's what I'm saying. I mean, there could have been.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, she ghosted you immediately after. Also, Justin, congratulations. She's crazy. You just got 18 months. Think of it the way Curly did from City Slickers. Remember he saw that girl, and it was the love of his life. And then Philly. Yeah, Curly, you gotta go talk to a Curly, what are you doing? Ah. She was the one. How do you know?

[Commercial Announcer]

You didn't know.

[John Holmberg]

You gotta go. I know because he let her go. So in his mind, nothing bad ever happened with her. There's a really beautiful story Curly tells in City Slickers. Even though it was a, you know, also kind of a thing, is you don't take risks. You'll never know real true love. This was Billy Crystal's point. That's what he. She. You had 18 months of putting her on a pedestal, seeing her as the most beautiful thing in the world and making her that. Let her be that for real. Then like Brett said. Then you smashed her duck out and she left. This is a gift from God. She showed her crazy the first day and she's a ghoster. Ghosters are revealed. She did you a favor. She doesn't respect you enough to at least tell you what happened. Good. No, Curly, this is no good. Curly, you gotta go. You gotta. No, you blew it.

[Co-host/Guest]

Ah.

[John Holmberg]

She was the one, though. She'll always be the one. Rides off like, that's. That's a beautiful story. Curly never had an argument with the love of his life. Cause he never met her. He just saw her from a distance. He could see through her sundress. He mentally her. And then he told Billy Crystal it was the love of his life. I personally thought Curly might be gay also. That was kind of a cover story. Yeah, he's on the range a lot. No girls. I like rolling my own cigarettes and sucking stuff. Unlike you city folk. I get to watch City Slickers again. But I'm pretty sure girly was a homosexual. Either way, congratulations, Justin, because that. That's a tough one. Or be honest with yourself about what's going on in that bathroom of yours.

[Brett Vesely]

The bathroom's a killer.

[John Holmberg]

It is a. It is a make or break.

[Co-host/Guest]

There's the first place to look.

[John Holmberg]

I do it for. If you went to a girl's house and her bathroom was a sty and women are gross in the bathroom. But if she had me over and I went in the bathroom and there's like a poop floating and I could. I could think she's the most. It could be Dua lipa. And I go in there, just, well, dua lipa could turn on me. That's different. But something like. Like a bad example. Like a teemu dua lipa. Like you find her on the street stuff. Like, hey, you're close enough. And go to their house and there's pubes everywhere and poop in the toilet and stains and gunk every the mirror is all gooey and Washington, that's a deal breaker.

[John Holmberg]

I got a weird take on this thing. I just saw a story about a guy who was arrested. He went to a north Phoenix mosque this weekend and started to shoot it up with paintballs. You know, and I'm thinking to myself, oh, that's pretty bad. But then in hindsight, I'm thinking, isn't this what the gun rights activists are dreaming of? Like, if you're gonna get a nutball to shoot at a place, paintballs is the. They keep trying to ban all these assault rifles and things like that. And then my argument's always been, well, they'll just go to a lesser caliber. Well, if they get rid of through paintball and stuff. And that's the worst they can do.

[Co-host/Guest]

That's the.

[John Holmberg]

That's the mass shooting we're looking for, I think.

[Commercial Announcer]

Can someone explain to me why the mosque was so lively at 2:30am I don't know.

[John Holmberg]

There's a lot going on there and I'm not even going to get into. Who knows, maybe they're on Tehran time, I don't know. But bottom line is this is what everybody on CNN's been screaming about for years. We want to get rid of AR15s and AKs and assaults and this and mags and the things that you can shove into the Eclipse that have the boosters and all that. Like. Yeah, all right, they should be. I've always made that argument. If we get rid of AR15s and they say that's a body count problem, so we go to somebody shoots up the place with 9 millimeters, are you going to celebrate that it wasn't an AR15? Probably not. I would say that's the dumbest argument ever. But if it's a paintball, we should be pretty happy making progress. Apparently. Yeah, that's, that's gun rights progress. This guy hates Muslims, it's clear. But if the worst he's gonna do is pull a gun out and paint it, I've got a paintball. You just wash it off. They don't like the stuff that they put in paintball. It's really easy to get off a wall. So score one for the gun rights folks. The guy still got his jollies off firing off at a mosque. The dream of a young man named. What's the name? Michael Dominguez. 30 year old dude who just had it with Muslims. But he didn't want to do too much damage. He just wanted to make his point. So let me put this out there. Since we can't stop crazy, let's give him ideas. You guys want to shoot something up? Paintball, you're not gonna go to jail for the rest of your life. Everyone's gonna remember you. It's crazy. And the worst case scenario is maybe you put an eye out, maybe you probably welt up somebody. But if you're gonna fire away at a crowd or you know, some sort of a soft target, this is what the gun rights people have been begging for. Use a paintball. Paintball guns, the future of mass shootings. That's what we all got our fingers crossed for.

[Co-host/Guest]

Want to see that on T shir

[John Holmberg]

It's a great T shirt. Ask Holmberg what the futures of mass shootings are. He's got some good ideas.

[Commercial Announcer]

He's a real go getter.

[John Holmberg]

I mean, when you look at him, you're like, what were you like? You're not like, you're kind of mad, like you, you're mad.

[Co-host/Guest]

Will it satisfy the craziness?

[John Holmberg]

That's the thing. Give him a chance. If you've got one of those kids and he's got a notebook you're not allowed to look at, that's his manifesto. Get him a paintball gun. If you're gonna shoot anything up, use this. It's like what we were talking about yesterday, the cool parents that said, I know you're gonna drink, but here, drink with me. So you just, you keep them away from the real stuff and you give them the loony kids a paintball gun. Now, I don't want the sentence is but isn't the exact same mentality shooting up a mosque Isn't he just kind of warning us, like he's testing the waters there? If we let him out in a year just because it's a paintball gun, he's gonna do it. Right? We all know that. Like, this is good chance. This is. This is when serial killers, like, take birds apart down the road. He's gonna dissect. He's gonna go for it. So maybe we should take paintball gun guy and put him away forever too. But quietly encourage it. Here's something I didn't expect way. The guy who's a member of the mosque that they interviewed on Arizona's Family News, last name was Berkovich. Yeah, I didn't see that coming. Call me a bigot, but I don't. I don't think of a lot of Muhammad Berkovich's. Why didn't you change the whole name? He said they had a sports night at the mosque and they were just kind of hanging around there, moffing off after, you know, those big Muslim sports nights. It could happen.

[Co-host/Guest]

Was it a cricket match that went really.

[John Holmberg]

Here's what I. The, the story itself to me can sit on the guy paintballing the mosque, the interview with the Muslim Berkovich, saying, well, of course, it was a 2:30am Sporting. We're winding down on at 2:30 in the morning after some heavy Muslim sports. I'm like, you guys are planning something like, I don't want to be. We're supposed to say something if we. That's not normal. 2:30, I can wrap up a sports night way before 2:30. How deep did your Muslim sports go?

Well, when you, you know, think of some plays late night, you gotta write them down.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, but not with groups, not with a bunch of other Muslims. No, no, that's what, you know, what you're describing, how 911 was planned. You come a couple of plays and you call your buddies, the team who's in and you say, all right guys, I got some ideas. I want to draw them on the whiteboard before I forgot. Brother Berkovich. Yes. What do you need anyway? Now they booked the guy in aggravated assault and criminal damage. But I'd question Mr. Berkovich a little bit about that. 2:30am Sports wind down too.

[John Holmberg]

Not doing anything.

No.

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Corey Feldman is awful.

[Co-host/Guest]

There's a reason River Phoenix died.

[Brett Vesely]

Chopper's still around. Can they bring chocolate back?

[Co-host/Guest]

His fans felt he's dissed, but Corey thinks he got. They didn't want him because of the talking of the abuse that he had.

[Co-host/Guest]

But he said, don't protest.

[Brett Vesely]

No problem.

[John Holmberg]

Don't worry about it. Let me put my magic markers down. And thanks. Thanks for stopping me.

Thanks, Feldman, for stopping me before I got ahead of myself with all of my protest signs.
