John Holmberg
He's evil sitting right here.
Brady
Come on. No, no, he's not. He's not evil. He's just a bit rude. 98 Goood Morning everybody. Lowther. Welcome to Tuesday. It is 5:45. It's the morning sickness. My name's John. There's Brady, there's Brett. There's big Dick Toledo. Let's get this thing started and get moving forward. On a glorious Tuesday morning here and paradise. Before we get started, I just had a new fear unlocked. Because you know, remember that picture, that giant human sized bat hanging from the ceiling? Yes. That was like Five and a half foot, six foot tall bat, everything. That's crazy. Optical illusion. No, it wasn't. That's real. I thought it was AI or something. I just was reading a story about those things. They're real.
Brett
The fox bat or.
Brady
I don't want the hell that. I don't know if it's a fruit bat. Thing is just looking at this picture. This. This is supposed to be. This photo here is like. I thought it was a goof on the Internet.
John Holmberg
It looks like.
Brady
Thing is, Rink, it looks like a dude in a cape hanging upside down. It's not. They're like. No, no. This is a very real thing. Look into the matter of fact. Is the animals real? But looking at the image might give you the wrong idea of. How big is it? Is. It looks like it's halfway to the ground. It's just an angle, but it's. Yeah, it's a flying fox bat. Yeah, golden crown flying fox. But they're very real. And they could be here. It's three and a half feet.
Brett
Can get up to five feet.
Brady
What? How do we not know about this? Why is this, like, not in anybody's travel guides?
John Holmberg
I'm out.
Brady
Me too. I'm out.
John Holmberg
No way.
Brady
I'm screaming for my life with that kind of stuff. Why don't people. Why do. I don't understand. It's the old Sam Kinison rule. Why don't move where the food is, Move away from the predators. I don't get it. Like this area here, the worst we get are like, you know, a scorpion sting. There's some snakes, but, you know, nothing that is as big as me that can fly. I don't want that.
John Holmberg
That's.
Brady
That's prehistoric crap that landline dogs. No, I don't.
Brett
It's a flying coyote.
Brady
I struggle enough with my dogs jumping on my nuts all the time. I don't need it flying. And Bus has a direct. He's doing it on purpose. At this point, that dog will stand on me. And He's. He's about 60 pounds and he's just pure beef. And I swear to you, he looks at the other dogs and watch him kick him in the nuts. And then he just stomps on my nuts for no reason at all. His front paws can be nowhere near my nuts. And his next step is nuts. There's like. He's got plenty of thigh, plenty of couch cushion. He's like, nuts. And then he looks over at the other guy's. Got him again. This dumbass trusts me every time. When he jumps. One of the hands can go sideways. Nuts. Now imagine with wings. Jesus Christ. I'd give him the house. It would be his.
Brett
So the law. The longest wing spread basically is 5 foot 7.
Brady
Measured in the 5 foot 7 inch wingspan.
Brett
Yeah.
Brady
On a bat.
John Holmberg
I'm calling the guys at Luke Air Force Base and knocking that thing out.
Brady
Can you imagine?
John Holmberg
No way.
Brady
Seeing that?
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Like that Doug Hopkins phone would be ringing off the hook. Doug, I am moving. What's wrong with your house? Nothing's wrong with the house. You said you'd buy it as is. I get an infestation of 9th grade sized bats. And the 5 foot 7 inch bats flying around. No thank you.
Brett
Keep going around your yard. You won't have to worry about all the picking up fruit from your trees.
John Holmberg
Trees? Well, that's tempting actually.
Brady
Are you kidding? They'd be walking into Safeway just like this is mine. You guys put. We couldn't put fruit in a pile outside. Just take when they're free. My grapefruit treats gone crazy. You'd have six foot bats standing out there just mullen through your box of grapefruit that. I didn't even know that was real. I thought because everybody saw that. I think you all know what picture I'm talking about. This was horrifying. It went around for a while. I'm like, oh, this is the first kind of like goofy perspective AI thing. And the picture's like, don't worry, it's not as big as you think. It's only five feet long. That's too much for me.
Brett
It's five feet. Well, it's the wingspan.
Brady
That's. I don't care, Brady. That's the. Yeah.
Brett
It's a three foot bat.
Brady
It's a three and a half foot bat in height. And it whips out into five feet wide. No. That flies above me. I'm gonna weep. And I'm gonna lay down for a little bit and I'm gonna stay away from fruit. The first thing I'm gonna do is cut down all my fruit trees. I got like seven of those. Those are going away.
Brett
Keep your fruit trees up and put up a little rod that hangs up so they can hang upside down and.
Brady
Hang out in your backyard and you can shoot them. That's a good idea. And get rid of these things. This is one of God's mistakes. No way. Those things to the ecology. To the point where we can't live without him. I'm just now finding out about it.
John Holmberg
Sounds terrible.
Brady
We got plenty of other bats. I Don't like the little bats. I saw a little bat at my dad's house once and I wouldn't go inside. He's fine. Like it's dusk any minute now. That door opens and closes one more time, he's taken off. We got attacked by bats when I was at my grandparents house in Pennsylvania. Walking from the barn back to the house. And some sort of Rockwellian weird dinner time triangle bell ringing. Everybody back into the house for slaughtered chicken. From that morning, we knew a chicken, it was dead and on a plate. And we're walking back from the barn. I was with my aunt Connie and we're just enjoying the walk. And next thing you know, my aunt Connie's got something in her hair and it's not coming out like, it's just whapping away. I'm like, what is it? Then I'm four. Then I get hit in the side of the head with something and look up. There's like a hundred of them. They're dive bombing us now. Make them the size of a fifth grader. My heart stop. Another thing I gotta worry about. Where do they live? It's probably a country I would never even consider.
Brett
Philippines.
John Holmberg
Probably where Toledo would go.
Brady
Yeah, so Toledo's gonna get carried away by the. By the witches. Flying monkeys up there in Philippines. That's what they look like. Maybe that's where my fear comes from.
Brett
Flying monkeys.
Brady
Well. Cause that scared me as a kid. Are you kidding me?
Brett
Oh, yeah.
Brady
When Susan's monkeys got hold of it, when Susan's flying monkeys were on tv, I lost my mind. I'm kidding. Susan. Just kidding. Susan. She's the only woman in charge of something around here, so I have to give her a little heat. We love Susan, but. No, seriously. The flying monkeys had my ass as a kid. That was like every year that they showed the wizard of Oz, the flying.
Brett
Monkeys took a couple of years to adjust.
Brady
And then I kind of like, all right, they're harmless. This is from 1939. I can. They're not real, are they? I have to keep. Every year I think it turns out that's not a thing, is it? Those look pretty real for 1939. That's some. Still some of the best special effects you'll ever. Those look pretty real.
Brett
It was a freaky castle to begin with because the soldiers were kind of like.
Brady
The soldiers weren't exactly comfortable.
Brett
That wasn't a good opener for a.
Brady
Kid with the big axes and the furs. I don't know what those furs were, but I didn't like it.
John Holmberg
So Moynihan har ed all them were all dressed up like that.
Brady
Susan, staff is. We put wings on our sales staff. All right, get out there and sell my little pretties. We're making fun of our staff. They're not going to be happy with that. None of them are going to like that. Susan, why are you calling me the wizard of Omer? I don't know. Seems like that's the drive of the sales staff has gotten a little bit, like, beyond.
John Holmberg
It'll be okay with it.
Brady
Look, if I had to sell the other two stations too, I'd get a little bit evil. Whatever it takes. Now get out there. Fly, my little swedes. Fly, pretties. Get us revenue.
Brett
She hates the water drive.
Brady
Oh, I hate it.
John Holmberg
Why?
Brady
Why?
Byron
What a world.
Brady
What a world. Operation Hydration. Whose idea was this? It's funny cause it's new. Anyway, I hated those stupid. That bat picture came up on a couple of things this morning and it's. They said, yeah, they're the same things that have been in Indiana Jones. The one with that whiny bitch when they were in the jungle. And the elephants. Oh, right. Isn't that the one with Shia Labouf, the crystal skull? Yeah, they had the big bats, but again, I thought that. Look at that in the air. Brett just found pictures of it flying. Oh, Toledo did. Jesus Christ.
John Holmberg
Looks like he landed a sky harbor.
Brady
That's horrifying.
Brett
They're cute.
Brady
No, my sister would have dated one of those just to piss my dad off.
John Holmberg
Just.
Brady
Just something different of some sort of. Not like a different color of a person. It would just make my dad go, what's going.
Brett
On?
Brady
I think my dad. My sister thought my dad hated Mexicans. And he didn't at all. He worked with them all the time. He was just frustrated that maybe one of these guys was one of his co workers. That's why she just brought Mexican guys who didn't speak English home all the time. My dad didn't care about that. He just hated who they were.
Brett
He'd come home, there's an extra hard hat.
Brady
Yeah, there's always.
Brett
What is this doing here?
Brady
What's up, boss? Pablo.
Dick Toledo
But if he's that hanging from your rack.
Brady
Oh my God. My sister would have dated him.
Dick Toledo
That's bigger than the Mexican that's dating your.
Brady
Oh, yeah. No, it wasn't actually. Those guys were. No, not one of them was bigger than like 4, 7. It was just tiny people. I. She chose tiny people who didn't speak the language. Anything foreign that was a little darker than my dad was used to and. And could barely speak the language. My sister dated or at least brought home. Didn't date, but at least brought home just to make Dan nuts.
Dick Toledo
On the side of the road though. You passed that?
Brady
Yeah. They're on a road in.
Dick Toledo
In bamboo.
Brady
It looks like they built those like carriers for them. Holy Christ. There's a set up post. Grown man standing next to one. It's a small bear with wings.
Brett
And hand him a banana.
Brady
No, don't, Brady. That's what you would do. Come stop in the car. We're gonna give that a pumpkin. Look at that thing. No, I thought that was phony. I thought that was Internet joke. Oh my God. Yeah. Google it. Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Giant battle pants, golden crown, flying fox.
Brady
Yeah. Wow. It's crazy. Anyway, hey, congratulations to Ukraine for probably kicking off World War three yesterday. That was pretty cool, but I don't think it's gonna end well. Oh, it's neat. Make a great movie. You see how they did it? Yeah, it was like Ocean's eleven stuff. And they blew up a bunch of. And the Russians used tires to protect their planes from drones. I don't know if you guys saw that.
Dick Toledo
That's what was all over the wings.
Brady
Yeah, they stacked tires on there and hoped the drones would just bounce off the Firestones. But they didn't.

Holmberg's morning sickness and they also have like giant, I don't know, do we still have big propeller bombers because that's what they were blowing up.
John Holmberg
I think Russia still does.
Brady
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Well, I don't think we do. Right. Because that's what Russia was getting blowed up yesterday.
Dick Toledo
That's a third of their force.
Brady
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what just happened.
Dick Toledo
34% of their bombers.
Brady
Yeah, they Pearl harbored them with like, you know, little ifly drones. I, I have one of those and it's pretty neat, but it did, it.
Dick Toledo
Looked like a dji.
Brady
Yeah, it's a DJI flying them with their phones and they shot them over there to some air bases in Russia and bounced them off their firestones and blew up a bunch of their planes. And they did it by just they took the roofs off of these little mobile home things, these little mobile boxes.
Dick Toledo
For the base, whatever they were supposed.
Brady
To be little mobile homes driving around rush going we will build new houses. That's the bad thing about fighting a country that looks just like you it's like us going to war with Canada. They can blend. All they have to do is, like, you'd be listening for the word aboot. Okay, guys, it's about time we attack Canada. You think I'm, like, up infiltrator? Like, he's a bad one. They'd have to kill their accents. But when you fight a nation that kind of speaks the same language and looks a lot like you, you're ripe for a truck to drive through with a bunch of drones in the back of it. And they just launch them. It was pretty.
Dick Toledo
Try and hand them a Schaefers or hams.
Brady
Seems to get super excited, like, oh, buddy. Oh, I mean, sir. But, yeah, they drove those things in there, and they had these, like, mobile kits and on. And then they just slipped the roof away and on. Inside each of the roofs was, like, 30 drones with little explosives. They lifted off and attacked four or five air bases yesterday and dropped a third of Russia's bombers. And Russia even said, this is our Pearl Harbor. This is crazy. And if you think that did that made them go, wow, Ukraine. We should stop. I'm guessing it's the opposite.
Brett
But, yeah, just as they're getting ready to sign.
Brady
They're not signing.
Brett
Whatever.
Brady
Nobody's signing it.
Brett
They were saying that the day.
Brady
That day we're having some negotiations, but every time they talk, one of them blows the other up. It's like that whole thing's a disaster. And I know we got, like, interests and stuff, and now especially that we've got some sort of mineral deal with. We got to make sure that's still a country, because otherwise it doesn't matter. So my guess is Chernobyl gets blown up again. They're going in there again. There's probably some stuff.
Brett
Break it open.
Brady
Yes. Crack that egg. Crack that egg with a little mother of all bombs. And anyway, cheers, everybody. Happy Tuesday to jump back.
Dick Toledo
Guy text in. Hey, John, I think I'm raising a little Brady.
Brady
Oh, no.
Dick Toledo
He told me about those giant bats last year. He said, hey, dad, they don't harm humans. They're friendly. I said. But I still said, nope.
Brady
Nope what? Friendly? Like, they're not dangerous. Clumsy. Maybe they like to snuggle. Yeah, you wrap up in their blankie, Their big rubber arms? No, thank you. One might just get a little rogue. You know, Brady's God invented all of us with eyes and, like, radar and sonar and all that. Like, that's what bats have. A few of them have good eyes. Humans. A few of them have bad eyes. It's the reason Dr. J. Schwartz has a great thriving business. Bats are the same. Some of them have good sonar, some of them don't. One of those things might blow up is sonar sucks and he smashes into the side of me. I don't want anything to do with it.
Dick Toledo
Back to the point about your aunt. Your aunt came in with a bat in her hair.
Brady
Yeah.
Dick Toledo
Now, if she's got that on her.
Brady
Head, no, she'd be dead because I'd have beat her to death. I wouldn't hurt the bat. I didn't want to piss the bat off. It's time for Aunt Connie to go. Yeah, we got attacked by this. But look at that thing. That is one of the witches flying monkeys. Yeah, I didn't know that. I thought that was a goof on the Internet, but no, they're not. You know what I'm so sick of? Shut the up with them. They're not gonna hurt you till they do. Humans aren't gonna hurt me either. For the most part, they're friendly. Every once in a while, one goes haywire. Animals are no different. One will go goofy. Bees. I'm sure in piles of bees, there's always one going, ah, I'm the asshole bee that breaks all the rules. And he stings for no reason. He's more afraid of you than you are him. I don't think that's possible, because I want to kill him, so I know he's feeling the same way about me.
John Holmberg
What was that dumbass Mark Wahlberg movie with the bees or something?
Brady
The. The happening. Oh, that's right. Where are all the bees? We're losing our bees. I was. That was. That movie made me happy. I'm like a world with no bees. We'll figure it out. I hate bees. I am 52 and a half plus 50. 52 and 3 quarters years old, and I've been stung once. And it just happened a couple years ago when I was dressed as a bee. I had my Steelers gear on. I had the. The old throwback bees. And I got stung in the ear by a bee that just happenstance. You know, we. We just kind of collided. He was on a straight course east, west. I was on one north. And it wasn't right in my ear hole. No, neither. No. And I don't blame that bee. I'd have stung me, too.
John Holmberg
They were just calling stolen valor. They're like, no, this mother was this.
Brady
He looked at me like, what the hell is that thing? I don't have a chance with the queen if that guy's a real bee. So he. He. He hit me in the ear. Just minding his own business. Went right in the ear hole. Didn't. Didn't dilly dally, hold me. Stung me in the ear hole. I thought I was gonna die. He wasn't rogue and on. He was just, you know, smack. He was toting something back for the queen. I got hit by it. But yeah, enough of you people like just. They don't want to hurt you as much. Yeah, okay. Yes, they do.
Brett
Had a fresh load of pollen and you interrupted that route.
Brady
Exactly. He's got like a bucket under his. He's just flying back. Gotta get this to the queen. Gotta get this. And I just got in his path. He wasn't paying attention. I listened to the radio. That's what I was doing. I was going to him back. Was probably listening. A little terror was on my. Nice. My list back then. A lot right in my ear hole. If you act afraid of them, then they're gonna bite you. Well, I'm afraid of them, so it's. I should run it. He's out. Yeah.
Brett
If you're going to the Philippines, I'd recommend walking around with a hat with. Covered in fruit.
Brady
Yeah, right. Great idea. Yeah. Walk around like Chiquita banana lady. I'm sure the giant flying monkeys will. Thrilling. Terrible. I'd rather. Yeah, I think I'd rather live in Ukraine right now than live where those bats are and just tolerate my bombs. Yeah, now we're. Now we're in it though. That was. And that was pretty cool. I got it. I gotta hand it to Ukraine. If that's the kind of stuff they're going to do with the money we're sending them, I want to see more of that. Where'd they get those drones?
Brett
I don't know, but they're pretty because.
Brady
They don't have Radio Shacks.
John Holmberg
You know Amazon, man.
Brady
You think Amazon's still delivering in Kiev? Oh, yeah. I don't know.
John Holmberg
I think Amazon prime, it only takes two days to get there.
Brady
Instead of just every morning, there's 10 or 12 of those electric trucks driving around just looking like, this is a terrible job. You think they have a fulfillment center in Russia?
John Holmberg
I don't know. Let's see.
Brady
Do everything to bomb Keefe, but don't hit the fulfillment center. That place is awesome.
John Holmberg
That's the one thing they agree on.
Brady
They all know, look, we won't attack your Amazon drivers. Or these fulfillment centers are packed chock full of cool deals.
Brett
The last two years, it's been Drivers wanted left and right.
Brady
Yeah, probably can't, you know, put an ad for papers that we need. People, you're not hitting our numbers.
John Holmberg
Yes, Amazon does deliver to Ukraine. They use Amazon Global for international shipping.
Brady
It is months. Like, as spoiled as we are. Like, yesterday, I. Something called Temu attacked me yesterday. Oh, it's the greatest thing ever.
Brett
Did you do it?
Brady
Spent about $345 to get my three free gifts.
Byron
I.
John Holmberg
There we go.
Brady
I did it. Oh, unreal. How cool my stuff's going to be, too.
John Holmberg
There we go.
Brady
Got a full drill set. I got a thing to hold all the drills. I got a chair bed. I bailed for the rental. I almost did. But then you buy a little more and go, all right, let's see where you are. And you're like, you're $4.32 away of credits to get to your three free gifts. And I'm like, yes. So I spent about. That's probably close to about 400 bucks on just towels. Curtains. I don't need curtains. Curtains. I got silverware, I got pots. I got the weird couch. I got sheets.
Brett
And so what. What did you end up purchasing?
Brady
That's what I'm saying. That was what I end up buying. And then the things that I got for free was a DeWalt drill and then a bedroom bed and a bag. I need all this stuff for that rental. And by the way, yesterday, the guy from Quantum Fiber came by to hook up my cable. And he walks in and he goes, you would happen to be the guy from the Radio Woods. And I'm like, I am. And he goes, I was just listening to you. And I'm like, oh, cool. Thanks. And then he goes about his business. Nice guy. His name is Eric. And he goes, hey, man, give me a shout out tomorrow. And I'm like, okay. And I'm like, what was your name again? He goes, eric. And I'm like, okay. And then I think at the end, he goes, I'm the Cincinnati Kid. And then I walked away. And I'm like, what? And I started laughing. So I don't remember. That wasn't what he said, but he gave himself, like, this crazy nickname, and that's what I heard. And I'm like, nobody's that. Don't do that. You're Eric, the Quantum Fiber guy. I'm a Cincinnati Kid. I'm like, okay, whatever. So. But he hooked up the cable or whatever. They had that Internet yesterday. And pretty cool. People are saying to me, those weren't drones, John, that attacked Russia. They Struck bombs, those Philippine bats. Now that I'd be for. If you can manage to train those flying monkeys to have bombs strapped to them. And then you go over Moscow, what.
John Holmberg
Are they selling to Moscow?
Brady
Oh, man. If Putin was looking up and what does in disguise, this little tiny pterodactyls. I don't know what that is, but I'm not comfortable. Ukraine has.
Brett
Amazon prime pet.
Brady
He's still shocked that Bezos is like, go ahead and build in Ukraine an Amazon fulfillment center. Sir, do you think this is the best time? The Bezos has spoken.
Brett
Everything else around it bombed.
Brady
Yeah, no air touching that. And who's still ordering? I guess you need stuff every day because it keeps getting blowed up. Anyway, I don't think that. I think the coolness of the drone attack, which is really neat, leads to just. You just. You pissed off the wrong Russian. Now it's going to get bad. It was bad before. Now it's going to get real bad. I know they're giggling and having the time of their lives with that, but there's probably still celebrating.
Brett
We got a third, but that means.
Brady
That means two thirds still remaining and been heavily armed now. Yeah, I think they're gonna launch all two thirds back at them because they. They're not in any wars with anyone else. So this one's. This is not gonna be good at all. But it was neat to watch for sure. I really enjoyed it, especially the ingenuity and kind of mountaineersmanship of, you know, it's kind of the way we beat the British from all the stories of breaking all the rules and sitting in trees and plunking a mother were asleep and. And we were the original terrorists. We were the original ones that did the war wrong. You're supposed to line up and like dress accordingly and wait. You know, West Virginia, when I lived in West Virginia in the 80s, they still celebrated how they like what kind of radical hillbilly nonsense that they created with their warfare. It was them.
Dick Toledo

Brady
Holmberg's morning sickness. And that's who they were recruiting back before we had, you know, other, like, it was all white guys. So you found the poor, worthless white guys, and you're like, you guys want to be the front line? And they're like, hell, yeah. Went over there and found those free clothes and everything. I'm in all those dudes that look like they should be on a Mountain Dew can. They gave them guns and they said, get inside the trees and don't follow the rules. Like, you got it. Digging holes and popping up like West Virginians are. And when I lived there, you got to remember it was, you know, generation two behind, like, actual face to face stories with people who knew, like, great grandpa died a few years ago. It wasn't that long ago. And he was there. He was one of them. Those mountaineers were horrifying, and they raised their kids to be that. You know, that was way back. These guys weren't too far gone from hearing stories like, my God, how far back was that? Well, my great grandfather. So I'm like, wait a minute. What? That's wondered. That makes sense. But now that person would be like 170. It's crazy.
Brett
Yeah, the original Rambos.
Brady
But you crazy. Exactly.
Brett
Don't go up there.
Brady
Ukraine got cute yesterday. I'm not a big fi. Look, I'm here for the jokes until the jokes explode. I like all the stuff that goes on in the world where I'm like, that's funny. Trump's an idiot making fun of Biden being an AI robot. That's cute. But when. When you start looking at it like, you just. You just kicked a dude with a lot of nukes in the nuts. I don't think he's that dumb, but I'm not sure. That's scary. So I just don't want to see all these people. And the thing Is about this job. Met so many military guys, and I've. And. And, you know, past and current. And you start looking like, I don't want you guys to have to go do anything. Like, they're. They're just. It's weird, like, in your brain when you think of the military's kind of faceless uniforms running into danger, and then you meet all these people and like, that. Especially the thing we do at Christmas where you see their families and, like, you don't want this to happen. You don't want to. I like it when our military is, like, kind of sitting around going, what should we do? I don't. Build some roads or, you know, I don't know.
Brett
I'll judge that cooking contest.
Brady
Yeah. It just gets weird. So I don't want to see this escalate into anything bananas. I'm gonna read you guys something, and I want you to give an honest assessment. An honest assessment. Like the thing that people always say, you can't blame the victim and stuff like that. Sometimes you can. First off, it starts with the words a Tucson man. So guilty.
John Holmberg
Guilty.
Brady
Yeah. Immediately. Like, we know if he's. If you've started a story about something terrible and it starts with a Tucson man, Chances are, oh, my God, that's my phone. I'm like, what's going on? Yeah. Anyway, so it's a Tucson man. So Tucson man is behind bars. Police say he sexually assaulted a woman inside a bathroom at sky harbor over the weekend. All right. Off and running. Terrible. Right.
John Holmberg
First of all, I shouldn't be let up here, but okay.
Brady
Yeah. I don't know why we haven't built the wall between Tucson and Phoenix. Because I've been there, and that place needs to have a wall built around it. We're wasting all that money. These fine Mexicans are trying to get in. These people from Tucson are free to roam around. Says authorities responded to the airport Saturday morning after a woman was had reported being in terminal bathroom. When a man later identified as Jose Rodriguez San Miguel, Knocked repeatedly on the door. I'm assuming the stall door. There are no independent individual bags. Right. This is where it starts getting strange. After a short time, the victim unlocked the doors after knocking had stopped and looked outside to see a man walking away from the bathroom. So maybe it was an individual bathroom. Not sure. But she's got the door unlocked. She peeks, and there's one dude walking away. I'm like, all right, that's it. Then the knocking began again. So the woman said she was almost done. Means she's Pooping.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Nobody says they're almost done unless they're pooping. And nobody gets up, checks out the door, locks it again, and goes back to work. Unless you're pooping. It says when she opened that she was almost done. Miguel reportedly pushed her into the bathroom.
Brett
So that sounds into the stall.
Brady
So, yeah, now we're back to where he's back in there. And if she was almost done and she was in the door frame. Okay. Inside the bathroom, the victim asked what he. What. What are you doing? She said, he claimed he worked for the airport and said, I saw how beautiful you were, and I wanted to make sure you were all right. The victim didn't believe him, so she said, show me some idiot. And he flashed that and then put it in his pocket. Just gave her an ID Flat, you know. Oh, he said he flashed it. I was like, that happens in a minute.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
Court paperwork details. The victim described how then Miguel touched her while she was trying to fight him off. Then he reportedly dropped his pants. Now, this is. This is bad. At this point, it's all on Miguel. All right? He drops his pants and said he wanted to take her to dinner. Not necessarily the order I would do that in.
John Holmberg
Nice calling card.
Brady
But this is why he's in trouble. Then he put his phone number into her phone. Like there's a missing part. Yeah, there's nothing that. Hold on. Then he sent himself nude images from her phone to his phone.
John Holmberg
Wait, so he took pictures of his crank and sent them to himself?
Brett
Yeah, but I'm sure.
Brady
No, no, no. Nude images of her.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
He found in her. So he was scrolling.
John Holmberg
And this is happening all this time.
Brett
While they're in the stall, they're in the.
Brady
In the. And that's what I can't figure out. Is it a stall or is there a bathroom I don't know about at the airport of just an individual bathroom. That's what it. And I've never been in an airport bathroom where there isn't three people having a disgusting dump. And in this story, it begins with a woman doing that. Like, where are all the other people?
Brett
Last Sunday, we went to the movies and afterwards have to go to the bathroom. And I'm following what I think is a dude. Just the back. I'm walking. I go. I walk in the bathroom with him. Sir, you're in the women's bathroom.
Brady
Oh, I know, I know. Why don't you give me your phone? So let's recap for a second. Tucson man in the bathroom, pants are half down. He Wants to take you to dinner. He's got your phone. He's put his number in your phone so he can get. And then he scrolled your pictures and found the nudes. Then he fires them over to his phone, and she's just standing there the whole time.
Brett
Yeah, the timeline's not matching.
Brady
You can knock him over if his pants are half down. He had to either pull his pants back up and nothing's matching.
John Holmberg
Kick him in the junk, just start.
Brady
Punching his feet back his little nuts. So once out of the bathroom, the victim reported the assault, and using surveillance, they located him, took him into custody. Yes, he should be in jail, but this story's not adding up.
John Holmberg
Timeline is all f'd way off. Not.
Brady
Yeah, like, if I'm a cop and I'm sitting here listening, this is on the news.
Brett
You did this and your pants were down the whole time?
Brady
Yeah, I don't want to victim shame, but if somebody says. If somebody's dicks out and then they're like, I want to take you to dinner, I'm like, ah, it depends on where. Like, that's my first thing I'm saying. Like, where are we going? Rah, rah. Room steak 44. What are we up to? No, like, Applebee's, like, ah, just punch him in the balls. But I mean, if he offered a nice dinner, I'm like, the Tucson man can't afford a good dinner. No. Then taking the time to have, like, the. Like, I guess maybe just tap him and he exchange contacts. Then he's got to figure out what that just is. Now he's got to go through her phone. What was she doing the whole time? He's Mexican from Tucson. It's not like she felt like he was going to overpower her. It's probably about the same size. She's a woman who takes dumps in airports. She's not small. No little woman takes a dump at the airport and is in there for a while to the point where she can hear knocking, pull her pants up, go check the door, shut it, lock it, and go back to more pooping. That's a big lady.
Brett
There's no way that could have been that. You know the time frame of someone else walking in. Unless you said, there is a private bathroom that I've never known about.
Brady
And first off, in there, you know.
Brett
A couple ladies are in there using it. Like, oh, look, if someone's exchanging.
Brady
Yeah.
Brett
Numbers.
John Holmberg
And I'm a john. I've never been in an airport bathroom where there wasn't at least three or four people in there at all times.
Brady
Here's the other thing.
Brett
You're waiting.
Brady
Let's just call it as we see it. As a privileged white, I would know way before Jose Rodriguez San Miguel from Tucson. I would know way before he did about a private stall bathroom in the airport. Way before privileged whites. We tell each other about, you know, there's a private bathroom for us whites. And like, is that still a thing?
John Holmberg
Thing.
Brady
It's not really for just whites, but it's the ones that you just assume are executive, but they're not. You can just go in there anytime you want. Nobody says anything. She knew about it.
Brett
It says Tucson WC on it.
Brady
White clothes, white closet. Yeah. See? A water closet. That's not true. Yeah, but as a privileged white. And let's it look, I admit there's white privilege. We know about the super bathrooms. And anytime you see someone else know about super bathroom, there's a wink. And they don't say anything to Tucson man. How did he find this? And she knew about it. And she did the worst thing you can do in it. If in fact it is a private bathroom. She took a dump in there. I always, when I'm at the Aria in Vegas, people like, I gotta go to the bathroom. I'm like, let me show you something and I'll take you to a couple of places where they're hidden. Beautiful, like independent stalls with your own sink. And like, oh, it's phenomenal. Not one of those urinal festivals that.
John Holmberg
Look, there's a couple people are saying family bathrooms are single occupancy.
Brady
Okay, but you still. She had a kid in the stall. She was using the family bathroom to take a huge deuce.
Brett
And you forgot to lock the door.
Brady
And by the way, knock all you want on a bathroom while I'm dumping publicly. I'm not coming out of there till I'm finished. I'm not checking on that. Why would I ever get up and go, who is banging on the door? Hello, busy. And then shut it. Like if somebody's furiously knocking on the bathroom door and I've got a, you know, I'm dumping. First off, I'm a classy individual. I don't dump in public like that. Second, I'm not getting up to check. And then, well, there was. Then you see the guy walking away going, ah, all right, back to my deuce. It's not happening.
Brett
But, you know, a wall's not going to stop a guy from Tucson.
Brady
No, he probably tunneled into the bathroom. So then there's the other question Never. It says he was walking away when she checked and she went and shut and locked it and went back to business. And the next thing you know he's in the bathroom. So I don't know how this is. None of this is adding up to me. I'm against Jose Rodriguez San Miguel. Start an A with the fact he's from Tucson. I'm against you right away. Yes, I am a bigot towards Tucsonians 100% across the board. You say you're from Tucson, I immediately take my wallet and I put it in my hand and I clench up the other hand as a fist in case your stinky Tucson ass gets too close to me.

Brady
Holmberg's morning sickness. People in this city used to make fun of Gila Bend and Apache Junction. It's because none of them have been to Tucson. Those are fledgling versions of Tucson. Now imagine Apache Junction on steroids and there's like 500,000 people.
John Holmberg
This guy should be put in insane asylum. I mean he's going after a broad that's taking a job. I mean I've, you know, I don't care how hot you are, I'm not going to pick up on a chick in a stall.
Brady
And it's her and her. And the smell is still in the air. It's like a bad can.
John Holmberg
Probably hadn't had a chance to wipe yet.
Brady
Just.
John Holmberg
I mean, Jesus Christ.
Brady
Well, that's what she was doing while he was thumbing through her phone looking for nudes and found him. I just have to go clean up. I've got so much. I've got Yoo hoo on my thighs.
Brett
Unloading that hot meal she had on the flight.
Brady
Oh man. I know sometimes their travel can cause digestive issues. You get back in there and clean it. Meanwhile, I'll go through your phone, send over some photos Tucson style. Okay.
John Holmberg
Did you come from India? I smell curry.
Brady
What is that? Jesus, lady, I'm from Tucson and that stinks.
Brett
Airdrop.
Brady
You airdrop these pictures of your naked ass clean to my phone? Ah, no one can hear your cries. It's a private stall. None of this makes sense. He should go to jail and stuff. But I need her story to be better. Something's not working here. But they did it on the news last night. I looked it up. I'm like, wait a minute. This. There's some jump cuts in this that you went right from like watching him walk away and then locking up again. And then he's in the room with you. And again it goes back to my role that the horrors of the possibilities of you taking dumps in public. You probably put yourself in that Vulnerable position, But none of it makes sense. And who doesn't have nude shots of themselves? Like, you got to keep that in some. Especially ladies. Like, you got to keep that in some sort of private file. I don't have naked shots of me because absolutely no one would want that.
Brett
I think he's probably walking, like, figuring he's got him ready. It's like, there's a good chance I might be able to send somebody. Somebody?
Brady
He's not sending them. Brady. Those were naked pictures of her from her phone he found and sent to his phone.
Brett
Oh, geez. Yeah, that changes.
Brady
That changes. No, no, no, no. He wasn't firing naked pictures of himself. He found naked pictures of her on her phone and then swap numbers. That takes time. And by the way, you keep doing your thing.
Brett
I'm just scrolling.
Brady
I have got. It's down to my knees. It's like rainwater. It's just running all over. In the meantime, I have your phone. I know. Ah. Again, no one can hear your cries. Yeah, it would make sense if he just had dropped. No, he was going through. He got her phone and then fired some pictures from her phone over to his. According to this. That's weird. She asked for id. Well, what happens? Like, why aren't you just kicking him in the nuts over and over and over and you know he's got your phone. Just leave.
Brett
Could you hand me some more paper, please?
Brady
You're gonna have to help out. I'll let you back in and you can see my gen pop can shots. But I need some tp. I have bungholed this place beyond recognition. Rules out. I know. I smell it. Yeah, it's. Yeah, I've used. I've actually used the cardboard roller. I undid it and used it as wipe. You're disgusting. I'm from Tucson. We should get married. Anyway. None of it makes sense. Jose Rodriguez San Miguel is still an awful person. But I need you to help me out with how this happened. And more importantly, I need to know where this private bathroom is. I go to the airport. Where is it? It's the reason I fly JSX most of the time is they've got better.
Brett
Only I can think of is if they're in the, you know, a private lounge. But they're. They would have said that.
Brady
Tucson man's not in a private lounge. Spirit Airlines looks at him and goes, no, thanks, Tucson man. I don't even think Spirit doesn't even fly to Tucson, do they? They do. It's because they lost a bet or it's a dare.
Brett
He's driving up there to take off.
Brady
Does Tucson have an airport?
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Yeah. Can we get Ukraine on that real quick? Just let's eliminate one third of that. That's.
Brett
Gonna take out one plane.
Brady
So this is what he's charged with. He faces two counts of sexual assault and one count of kidnapping with intent to inflict to death. I've never heard that before.
Brett
Miss the threat part.
Brady
Yeah, I didn't hear that part. He was gonna. Yeah. Reportedly sent himself nude images from her phone while making sexual remarks. So he found her naked pictures in her phone, fired him over to himself. And this was after he had already done the tip top touch of phones where you can exchange your contact info. It's weird. Her story ain't adding up. Where's that bathroom? We just played Five finger death punch. Wash it all away. I think that's our theme.
Brett
So maybe it'll be a Netflix.
John Holmberg
Maybe it was a hookup and it went bad.
Brady
Wouldn't he say that, though? He's still.
John Holmberg
I was trying to blame him now.
Brady
Yeah, but why would. Why would he pretend she has regrets? Could be full of regret. We're just quoting mid level two. Yeah, I. I don't get this one. But I watched the news last night. I'm like, nobody's in journalism's asking the right question. She was walking away and she let him in again. Like at that point, clinch up and then go say, hey, I'm trying to take a humongous dump in here. And that guy keeps banging on the women's door.
Brett
But you're so beautiful.
Brady
You're so pretty. I know. But at this very moment, I'm in full squat, so I'm not that pretty. And I'm telling you, it's taken a few minutes.
John Holmberg
It's bad Tucson. Senorita, you're pretty.
Brady
You don't know what kind of smells I'll tolerate. Ma' am. I live in Tucson. Oh, he's from Tucson. There's no farting him away.
Brett
Pinch it.
Brady
Pinch it off. Reach down there and get it. Oh. Ah. Just like abuelita used to do. Oh, they'll make tamales out of it. I'd rather eat that than a tamale. Pretty girl poo a Tucson turd. I'd rather have a pretty girl. No, no, no. Not Tucson. Yeah, that's what tamales are. I'm gonna start calling that Tucson Turds. Except there's more meat in a Tucson turd than there's a tamale in that mush. Don't forget not to put more than one hair's worth of meat in the mushroom. Now give it away as a Christmas present. Worst present ever. Oh, wow. You spent 7 cents on masa and a string of meat for me. What a thoughtful gift. Don't get me started on those. That's. It's not the time. I do that in November and December when that scam gets going and Mexicans. I've got you figured out on that one. It took us hours in the home depot bucket to make the masa. No, it didn't, because this isn't even fully cooked corn husks. Wrapping paper. Go to toys R Us and get me an action figure. That's something. Bring me a mush with a string of meat in it just seems so.
Brett
Like, so much work.
Brady
Yeah. It's not that. And it's. Trust me for the end result. Not worth it if it took you hours. I even told one of the guys that this took hours to make. Yeah, it takes a long time. I'm like. And this is the result you'd expect it to be. I don't know. Good. I feel like I'm eating carpet. Mushy, wet carpet. It's a delicacy. That were true, there'd be tamale restaurants. There aren't gonna like that. It's not a delicacy. They don't serve it in Mexican restaurants. It's, like, way down on the list. You would never order tamales at La pinata or ritos. You'd never just go, I'll have the tamales. It's not a thing. You get a burrito like everybody else.
John Holmberg
Tamales at Javier's?
Brady
Of course not. They have good food at Javier. They don't have some charity. All right. You got me off on the tamales. Anyway, this lady. Sorry it happened to you, man, but I think your story has some holes in it, and I don't know where the media went. I don't know where channel three and channel. Anybody.
John Holmberg
Troy down there, what's going on?
Brady
You know, we got to get Hayden at 3. Troy, you're gotten a little lazy behind the desk. That's my rule. But, Troy, you got to get out there and start doing some stores. You ask questions. I've hung out with Troy Hayden, and Troy asks questions, like, just chatting with you. I'm like, you are inquisitive. I like that because I am, too. And so we have, like, good conversations that get, like, the question about not just each other, but what we're talking about, and you raise more questions, and that creates More conversation and in depth, philosophical. Like chats that are interesting. That's a whole point of journalism. What's this Walter Cronkite thing teaching people? Just take their word for it, ask a couple questions. There's just gotta be a second in there where you're like, hold up, wait. What? He was back in the room with you? I thought he said he was walking away. Oh, I let him back in. I wasn't dumb. Having a humongous deuce. All right, where's the good bathroom? Let's start there. Oh, it's secret.
Brett
Let's hear from him.
Brady
Well, I don't want to hear from him. He's a two son man. He's guilty. I'm glad when we corral one of those. Anybody who admits to it should be immediately put in handcuffs and stuffed into an oven, ice car and deported back to Tucson. Trump should get everybody that says they're from Tucson back to Tucson. It's the best line in a movie called Hamlet. Two hilarious films. Steve Coogan. The last line in it, kids, no matter where you are in this world, just remember, at least you're not in Tucson. And then the camera pulls back and it's a great line because it's so true. Anyway, yeah, Tucson sounds. It sucks. All of it. Anyway, so, lady, I'm sorry for you, but the only thing I really walked away from that story thinking was, where's that bathroom? Because if I ever had to, I don't want to go in that. Airport bathrooms are the worst. I listened to a guy cry in o' Hare once. What? I was young and I'd never been to a big airport like that. I think it was the first flight I'd ever been on, Western Airlines from o' Hare to Albuquerque, I think we had a stop in Kansas City. Terrible flight. And I went into the bathroom at o' Hare, and one of the guys in the stall, I think he was weeping, and it was one of those fart noises, like it was just a unleash a party popper eruption. Oh, and the smell was awful. And he wasn't alone. There were like nine travelers in those stalls just on. I don't know what airplane travel does to a lot of people. It constipates them.
Brett
They're running rich.
Brady
Oh, my God. So I've never been in a bathroom. It's like, this is a nice airport bathroom. Nobody's doing anything in. It's not the case. They got 20 minute layovers, 30 minute layovers, and they're just like, I gotta unload one the wet beef is gone. That's why Chicago. I ate some wet beef. Oh, God damn.
John Holmberg
It's no longer with me.
Brady
Oh, my heart. I don't know. And now that guy's pope. It's amazing. Let's get a wake up song, shall we? 585 9, 800. A good one. We'll scream it together. It's 98K video. Wake up.
