Once again, the morning has gotten going and hopefully you're on your way to getting where you need to go. Victor says, first thing I hear when I get in my car this morning, Big Perp lives in constant fear of child support. It's a great first phrase to start your Tuesday or Wednesday. Most unbelievable thing about this whole situation is not his crazy job scenarios that he came up with is the notion that that's all he's talking about while he's working. Yeah, they're coming up with some scenarios. Big Perp. We don't get it. This one says I like how Big Perp framed the question where the Sasquatch lady made six figures, 100 grand a year. And he treated it like she was making $14 million. Like this guy. That's true. It depends on where she lives, whether or not that's good. So big perp scenarios need to be more like this. When you email this show, would you rather get a hand job from a girl or hot dog between the cheeks? See, now I have answers for that. If she's got enough cakes to hot dog the cheeks, you take that. Because that's rare, right?
Yeah.
Hand job. I can do that myself. But if she's got no ass.
Yeah, yeah. Taylor Swift. Yeah.
Brady
Brady, I'm with you.
John Holmberg
You gonna hot dog those cheeks? Yeah, ever. Hot dog cheeks. Brady.
He heard hot dog.
Did you ever glizzy a girl's cheeks? No. That's a no. You'd remember. You've never. You've never hot dogged. Don't act like you gotta think about it through all your. Just you.
Brady
I don't know if I want to answer that or not.
John Holmberg
Why not?
Brady
Hang on, let me confirm my.
John Holmberg
You get home. You get home and hot dog today. Hot dog away. The whole reason guys like hot dogs are great. Little hot dog action. Come on.
Brady
I get it.
John Holmberg
I know you get it. Now do it. Ain't getting any younger, kid.
Brady
Another task.
John Holmberg
The last thing I want to do is lay next to you on your deathbed, holding your hand.
Brady
I like these chores.
John Holmberg
Been a good friend. You've been a good friend. You too. I really have only one regret. I know. The hot dog thing. How did you know? Because we talked about it. In your eyes, I could tell. I don't want you to go to. I don't want you to go to the next level with regrets. Hot dog is one of them. It's kind of fun. You're gonna giggle. It does look like a hot dog. You might get, like really aroused incorporating wieners and hot dogs and make a dream of barbecues. Can't believe you've never tried that, even accidentally. Sometimes it just does it itself. Whoops. Hey, look at that.
Richard Karn
Wrong.
John Holmberg
That's not it. Don't worry, I'm not pushing. I'm just. Oh, it's there already. I'm kind of hanging around the area. This is neat. Little mustard. Take a couple snapshots with your meta glasses. Thank you, Nick. See, that's the type of debate we can handle. Hot dog or hand job. And it all depends on the shape of the lady. And if we're talking about big perps, ladies, there's always an opportunity to hot dog. I'm Guessing he ain't gonna go home with some fastback. This one says, what language was that? Listener who emailed you speaking? It may as well have been Chinese. I'm sorry, Mr. Perp. My credit score is above 500. I have no idea what you're talking about. And then I got a list of scenarios that Big Perp can just keep to himself. One is, what is the best way to ask the security guard following you what cologne he's using? Yeah, that's true. It's probably like we're never gonna have to worry about that. Anything child support related at all? Seed versus seedless. Just. That's your diet. It doesn't matter to us that we care. Do you care? Seed versus Seedless?
Brady
No.
John Holmberg
It's delicious. Either way, I can spit the seeds out. It's kind of fun. Who would you kill for a lifetime supply of Kool Aid? That's something we're never going to have to debate here. If someone gave you $200 every month, but you could never watch Soul Plane again, would you do it? That's. We have. We have an easy answer. If you could get one of your kids to have a different dad, but you could never, ever talk during a movie again, would you do it?
Ever gonna happen?
What if you agreed to that and it get like. It was like making a deal with the devil. It's like this paternity suit. You are not the father, but the devil can make it. So every paternity suit that ever comes your way, you're not the father, but you can never talk in a movie again. To the screen at least. But if you did break the deal, for every one he let you off the hook, three come back positive. I don't think a black guy could do it. He just have to stop going to movies forever. Even at home, you couldn't talk to the screen. People always ask this. Are you saying Big perp as a. As because his name is lavender, like purple or Big purpose in a felon? Yes. The answer is yes. Quick. Yes. Do you use bottled water or filtered water for Kool Aid? Now that might be something we could answer. I'm not sure. Big Herb, stop it. These scenarios make no sense. I saw a story last night about. And this to me, is a Brett murder. I didn't know they had the mafia in India. But a dude was walking home after a few drinks, and he walked through, like a road construction area and fell in a hole. And the next morning, the workers filled the hole. Filled the hole, buried him alive. Right. The family's like, we know where he is. He's in there. It's like, why? He's like, this would be the route he took home. He didn't fall in that hole. Trust us. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. The hole had markers and it didn't. So dude walks home, falls in the hole, they bury him, and then they're like, all right. And the family gets all sorts of crazy, and they sure enough, he's in there.
Brady
Wow.
John Holmberg
And the workers now holding the workers responsible for not looking in the hole before they filled it the next day.
Brady
And what did they. Did they say what they used? Like, was it concrete or just.
John Holmberg
Oh, it was dirt and then asphalt. It was road. So they just filled this big. They were doing something down. But I'm. Again, everything was done. And I don't know how deep the hole was, but dudes just went right back to their equipment the next morning and shoved stuff in that hole.
That's schedule to keep.
Yeah, right.
Brady
They're in a hurry. They didn't look.
John Holmberg
If Hindu Dan Holmberg was on that job site, they wouldn't, you know, Come on.
Hindu Dan would have been quick to go. Okay. We must. Okay. No, no, no, no, no. What are you queer? He's always worried about everybody being gay. We'd have looked in the hole, make sure there's nobody in there.
Well, weren't you telling the stories about finding stuff in New Orleans and it just keep going.
Wasn't my dad.
Oh, okay.
But it was a guy my dad worked with when they built the Superdome. They found things when they dug. Treasure chests. Like old boat like chests. And they would go through it, and there's nothing in them ever. They're coats. And they were like wardrobe chests. But they're supposed to stop everything because they'd found some archaeological deal. Like, no, this is a swamp. Keep digging. And they. You know, that's a constant. Construction sites find things all the time. And if they report it, it shuts everything down. There's so much Indian history that has been thrown away straight up for the. The 101. That 101 freeway went right across, like. And they found pots. And every time they did it. Archaeologists again. I was at MCC in an archeology class again. I had no idea why I was going to school and why MCC has archeology is beyond me. Community college archaeologists, losers standing outside with feather dusters. So we. They took us to the site Price Road. Just where the Price and Southern area. Right. Where everything kind of combines into that before that freeway was done. They found it. They dug this giant hole out, and we got to go watch them, and we got to play in a corner with our dusters and stuff. We didn't get to find anything. And all they did was find a pot, an old Indian pot, and it shut down production on that. Remember when they were building the freeway and they just. And they stopped them cold. So you're gonna find a bunch of stuff. I thought they were gonna find, like, artifacts. And then I started to realize, oh, the Indians are like the Italians. You're not digging here. That's essentially what they said. And I'm like, oh, you're gonna find a bunch of bones, body parts, and stuff. And they're gonna say, because we're white and we're scared, it's an ancient burial ground. Really, it's just a dumping ground. Dumping ground for their crimes.
Brady
New construction in Rome, Italy, is just impossible.
John Holmberg
There's no way. They're. They're not doing any. Hey, Just found some crown and, like, a Trojan hat. Throw it away, throw it away. They'll kill the. The new coliseum will never get built. Yeah, so they did. I didn't realize that until I was, like, in my 30s. I'm like, wait a minute. We always assume the stuff you found digging around on an Indian reservation was, like, ancient artifacts, because that's what the herd museum taught us all in sixth grade. But what it was. And that's a great out for Indians, too. You guys should have thought of that.
What time?
Ancient burial ground where our ancestors were laid to rest. And now you've disturbed the Great Spirit, like, no, it is a burial ground, dude. Dude died in, like, 1958. Your grandfather killed him with hatchet. Yeah. All right. You kept it. You kept it traditional, but still.
Brady
Or it's just, bury the mammoth, move it out of the way.
John Holmberg
I do that. I remember when we were before. When I was. When we used to drive by the old KUPD before I ever. I was a, you know, teenager. And they were doing work on the. What turns into. What is it called? The Arizona Grand. That used to be the point at South Mountain. And they were building all that stuff, and they were painting on the Guadalupians, or remember that? How scary that was on the freeway? They painted ghosts chasing and killing white people. It was all along the freeway wall. It was a lot. And you drive by, and you're like, oh. And they're like. They say that we're disturbing ancient burial grounds. When the Gosnell people were building that entire structure and the whole wall all the way up Guadalupe was a wall. And it was all graffiti of ghosts coming out of the ground and white people running away. And then, like, a few walls later, like, the white people are all slaughtered, and you go down the i10 and head towards Chandler. That wasn't even. Chandler wasn't there yet. It wasn't anything. It was like. That was kind of the end. Man, it was horrifying as a kid at night, driving by that you're like, oh, it was weird, but they believe that. But really later, I discovered, oh, if you were so worried about ancient burial grounds, you'd have, like, put markers up. This is where you've been dumping all the bodies. We're on to you. Ms. Homburg is spilling secrets. Must have him stop. There's no reason to paint whitey getting killed by Indian ghosts unless you got some secrets in there. Don't disturb our ancestors. You didn't even put, like, a stick.
Brady
He told the whole story on that wall.
John Holmberg
Oh, the whole story was like, oh, boy, we'll kill you too. Is essentially. That's what the mob would do. They'd horse heads and oranges, and they leave a little warning. That's how quiet Brett's getting. He knows I don't know what you're talking about. You know, they find a. You know, we find a little piece of a pot, and everybody's like, oh, these artifacts are in it. If they were that important, why'd you throw them away?
Brady
The fact is, like, it's pots and stuff. They keep. Ignore that. But you come across a dinosaur, they're stopping.
John Holmberg
Oh, well, yeah. We figured out most of what we need to know about Indian pots. Got whole museums about that. You find a dinosaur bone, heck, yeah. You're stopping. Might change the course of history. Indian bones, I jump right over that. Cause it's gonna cause trouble. I find a headdress and stuff, and the guy's pretty well maintained. I'm like, this might be a few years old. No, no, that is from 1500. No, it's not. Dude's wearing a watch.
He's wearing Jordans.
He's got Jordan. He's got Jordan. 33s on this guy died five years ago. No, no, no, no, no. We dig him up every once in a while and dress him up in modern times so he fits in in the effort. Shut up. He is a dead ancestor. You are a white piece of crap. I see what's going on around here. I'm not gonna spill the beans there, chief. I like what you're doing. You're very Italian now, but yeah, this dude wandered along and not that kind of Indian goes right into the hole at the site they bury him and then but for some reason the family knew. Like if you were walking home drunk, fell in a hole, they buried you the next day. Would your family know the route you took? Guaranteed, oh, he fell in the hole and you buried him. That seems too convenient, doesn't it?

Brady
They knew about the hole. So how long? You know, it was the next day. Yeah.
John Holmberg
Buried him. Like, I bet he was in there. It's like, did you fill that hole? Like, yeah, I bet you he went in there. It sure was.
Brady
You know, we got a hole in the road. Yeah. We'll get it tomorrow.
John Holmberg
Well, that happens all the time for construction. There's, like, ditches I've never seen.
Brady
Really.
John Holmberg
Usually they put them stuff around it. Wandering around. Well, that's happened. Like when they do. When they do sewage, like when they were doing all the Squaw Peak things, there were massive holes on the trails that you couldn't walk over. They were doing all new underground.
Brady
Just the whole load of dirt. I'm just gonna dump it in there, looking in the hole.
John Holmberg
That building has been a pile of dirt for four years, sitting right next to us. But you're not supposed. Like, they have fences and stuff. Evidently in India they don't. They don't do fencing. You just gotta take your chances. And dude fell in a hole. Yeah. Next morning. I mean, he was completely murdered. There's no question about it, necessarily. But the family knew. And then they're getting money. The family killed him. Like, does this. Does nobody ask questions anywhere in the world? They killed him, put him in the. Buried him, and then blamed the construction company for not paying attention to the dead guy in the hole. He was dead in there. But there's no way. You fall in a hole and the next day nobody sees it. My cousin was a drug addict, and he fell in a hole at a construction site and had to tell my dad that your nephew's in the hole out there all cranked out. He's got needles next to him. Damn it.
Brady
They threw a blanket over him.
John Holmberg
They would have been better off. Don't wake me. So comfortable. Let's just put a little blanket of dirt on top of him. But, yeah, that's a murder. And it gets on the news here and you're like, in the world. And the news was like, isn't this.
Brady
That's his route home.
John Holmberg
He died of suffocation. Right. His route home has been Walking around that hole for a long time. By the way, you had a massive alcoholic in your family if you knew his route home from the bar where you're like, oh, they dug that big hole. I bet he fell in that. And you know how much they gave him. This is kind of the good thing. It sounds like a lot. 50,000 rupees, which breaks down to about 700 bucks. Yeah.
Man.
They were happy with it. That's about right. Let your drunk idiot uncle falls in holes on his walk home. It seems about right, right? That seems about right. People keep emailing me the story of the the girl, the bad girls gone God. That was the last time the women's empowerment walk went up the the mountain in 2022. And we pro and I and I promised a couple of them that Toledo would put our take on the bad girls gone God up on the Saturday show. So you might have to do that. That's the thing just to remember, Women's empowerment movements are 0 for 2 if I run good. Here's the thing, ladies. If you're going to have an empowerment hike in the middle of summer, the only ones we know about are bad girls gone God. Which was a bunch of African American ladies from Alabama that decided to try camelback mountain in the heat. And they all started dropping like flies, which is hilarious because they were. I'm sure they stayed wildly calm through that. And then yesterday when we announced that the mommy empowerment movement didn't quite make it all the way, seven of 11 of them had a nice day, and that was what they called a success. Now, I think If I take 11 people on a hike and one of them rolls ankle, we've had a rough day. If I go play basketball and we get a five on five and somebody blows an acl, I don't really think about what a great game it was. I'm. Ah, man, Brian's knee went out. That's no good. But women's empowerment movements figure that 7 out of 11 is a positive day. Enough so to say so on the news that it was a fantastic afternoon and the women really pushed themselves. One of them's in critical condition. Hopefully she's all right still.
Brady
Yeah, we got an update.
John Holmberg
Haven't gotten an update. So what needs to happen is these empowerment movements. You ladies need to call the news to tell us when it succeeds. Because what we're not hearing is when mommy empowerment movements make it. You know, I highly encourage these mommy empowerment movements to go marching around, get some of that baby weight off, get up that hill. But let's start slow. You know, jump on Camelback in the middle of June. Maybe. I don't even want to say the name of the mountain in Mesa, but maybe that hill over there. That's a good one. The. The S hill.
A lot of them out there.
S. Word hill.
There's a lot of them out there.
You know, trail's very small. It's a bump.
Brady
Can you hike that?
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah. Why wouldn't you?
Brady
I thought that.
John Holmberg
Superstition.
No, no. S word. You said this. Yeah, that's not saying it. It's not a hill that I talk about too much. I'll have to pay money.
You're used to it. Don't worry about it. Just come on.
Why wouldn't I say it?
Fork it out.
Still on the map. How about North Mountain? That's an easy one. Mostly paved.
That's boring.
It is boring. But we're talking about mommy empowerment. All they want to do is accomplish something.
Brady
Keep it on the end of the 32nd trail. Just right off there, there's a nice little elevation.
John Holmberg
Tell you what, that one gets a little hairy. Brady, it's awfully hot outside right here at Papago.
Those are easy trails.
Guys are both pushing them a little hard. I saw these ladies on the news yesterday.
Brady
They can find their way out of there pretty easily.
John Holmberg
All right. Seems an awful lot of, like, possibilities of twisted ankles. We're looking at some. Some Henriettas out there is what I'm saying. It's like the ankles are doing all the work they need. I need a flat surface, maybe paved. You know, north mountain. S. Word hill.
I don't know.
Maybe just walk around the mall on the outside. Ooh, that's a good idea. Malls are big.
Brady
That's the best one yet.
John Holmberg
Climb some stairs at the parking garage over there at Fashion Square. Ah, that's some empowered mommies if I've ever heard of it.
Brady
Maybe hit the water park. A lot of stairs on that. When you get up in the.
John Holmberg
That's true. You gotta climb all the way up to that top slide. That's an empowered mommy right there. If she can get to the top and then she's gotta slide all the way down. And if she wants to do it twice. Maybe the most empowered mommy I've ever heard of. But we are now 24 hours. 40 hours is about right since the last empowered women's group went up a hill. And then the news last night had the nerve to tell us after the women's empowerment thing. The. It was a. It's in Buzzfeed this was the article. It said, weaponized incompetence. They say that basic skills that women have to teach their husbands in order to make them functional adults. Like, really? On the heels of the women's mommy empowerment march that failed. We have to teach us how to be. And one was. I had to tell my husband that letting the water rinse the soap off his body isn't cleaning his feet. Yes, it is. It's 100% cleaning your feet. If you soap up up high, real foamy, the water sinks down. It cleans your feet. You just gotta rub your feet on the tile a little bit in the shower. It's clean. I don't think I've. It's very rare. If I get something on my feet, I'll wash it.
Brady
Otherwise, super smelly feet, that's another problem.
John Holmberg
That's a different animal. Then you gotta teach him how to. Well, he probably should want to wash this one. Says, when I first got with my husband, he didn't understand how tampons worked or where they went. Yeah, he's a man. We don't care.
We'd rather not. No, it's not right.
That's a thing we don't talk about. So you don't have to teach us that if you don't want to. We assume it's gross and you've got it covered, Right?
Brady
I need help. Could you put it in?
John Holmberg
Do you know how to do it?
Brady
No.
John Holmberg
Yeah. See, Brady doesn't know, and he's a very old man, I fear.
Brady
It's like, you know, you put it in there and you pull it like a party favor.
John Holmberg
Party poppers. That's how you get it out, you know, you plunge it in.
Brady
Yeah, that's right.
John Holmberg
No, no, don't do it that way. You're gonna punch her. Brady's physical movement was too hard, too harsh. It just goes right up there. And then you thumb plunger like a syringe. And for some, I don't know how it works, but then the plastic comes off, and you're just holding the plastic, and it's in there. It's neat.
I'll take the word for it.
Somehow, I don't know. Yeah, and you don't have to do it either.
No.
Yeah.
Take your word for it.
They act like we need this skill. We don't. I'm never gonna need this skill. The only reason I know.
Brady
I'll pad you up. I can't.
John Holmberg
You know, I'm not padding you up now that I don't know how that Works. There's, like, stickies and.
Yeah, I think you just peel the label and just put it in there.
I don't.
That's what I think. I don't know.
I don't know where it goes. I probably put it too far back to the butt. That is a skill no woman needs to teach a man. Or laugh. That. We don't know. We don't want to know. That's something. The Bryan Adams girl. She was the one who. She thought it would be hot. We were about to do it, and she came out of the bathroom and she goes, oh, I got bad news. I'm like, what? And she goes, I think I'm getting started. And I'm like, oh, that is terrible news. Well, I'm leaving. She goes, what? And so she came over and she started to do things girls that time of the month do, which is to try to please me. But that's all I could think about was, like, how gross it was. And then she goes, do you wanna. And she held up the little tube, a little pink tube. Like, do I wanna what? She goes, you wanna do it for me? I don't even know what this is. What are we doing? And then. So she took my hand and guided it and then said, press the plunger. And I did it. Is that how that works? Huh? How about that? I'll never do that again. That's the grossest thing I've ever been a part of.
Brady
You're the first.
John Holmberg
She tried to be like, I don't think any other man's ever done. Maybe Nathan Sutherland, proud to say.
I've never done that.
Yeah, so that's not a thing. That's not a thing women need to teach men and then giggle about later. We don't want to know that. And then the other ones were like, I had to teach my boyfriend that you have to lock the front door when you come home because you live in a city. Well, so can you.
Brady
He couldn't learn.
John Holmberg
Time to move from Maryville.
She taught him that fabric softener is not the same as detergent. And he. For two years before he knew her, he'd washed his clothes and fabric softener. Did you notice? What? Did he smell? Were his clothes dirty? No, he was getting the job done. This one I don't even know.
Brady
It's pretty dumb, though.
John Holmberg
Yeah, but it's this whole article about how stupid men are and how smart ladies are. And this one was like, I had to teach mine how to properly wipe his ass so he would quit leaving skid marks in his underwear. First off, quit looking in the guy's underwear. Like, if you did. Like, it's gross. The second, dude, you need to clean your ass. But third, ladies, I don't know what's going on. I've mentioned this many times. I don't know what happens to your underwear. This is a long time ago. I've only seen it when I was younger. Sometimes it looks like you've got a cold down there, and there's like. Like your stuff's blowing its nose and I don't know.
Wake Up Song brought to you by.
I don't know if you can make that thing sneeze, but I'm going through it right now, and I think your vaginas need Mucinex occasionally. So lay off of Brady's underwear for a little while, all right? Yeah, they had, like, 22 different things. My husband was bothered that babies aren't born with teeth. You married an idiot. You don't have to teach him that. It'll be neat if a baby. I did know somebody whose baby came out with a couple of teeth started already. It was weird. Like, the kid came out and he had, like, two fronts. Like, the picture of the baby looks like a little Nosferatu. He's got two little white. Like, they've started already. Like, I don't know when baby teeth show up. I think that's a surprise to everybody. Said, john, I'm with you on the insertion thing. I had to do that when my wife was pregnant and couldn't reach. Pregnant. Here I'm learning pregnant ladies still have a period. I thought that was.
Brady
I didn't.
John Holmberg
I think they did anymore.
No idea what.
That's what Rob says. Said, I just threw up in my mouth. Press the plunger. This is the grossest thing a woman's ever said to a man. It is true. It's gross. So, yeah, don't say we're stupid. We're not the stupid ones.
Brady
Well, if you wanted to start the list of stuff that. Oh, I had a friend that, you know, his girlfriend had to let her know that the oil does not go into the gas tank.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Also, dumping the if we ever put.
John Holmberg
Out a buzzfeed article of things we have to, like our wives don't understand. There's a reason that there's garages in America with tennis balls on strings. And it isn't because of dudes. I'll tell you that right away.

John Holmberg
Holmberg's morning sickness. No, dude. Is struggling to park the car without the help of a pen four and a rope. But it was. And they. And of course the anchors when they did the story. It's so true, you guys. Without us. Yeah, we'd be thrilled.
Brady
I got two in the garage.
John Holmberg
Tennis balls.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Do you really?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
For you, Kirby and Ronnie. Yeah. I know you don't have one for you. Don't. You don't. You're probably not allowed in the garage.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Because all your beer cans take up your slot. Did you tennis ball both of them?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
No kidding. Aren't they offended by that? That would offend me.
Brady
No, they weren't empowering. Look, I'd rather have that than, oh, well, you hit the back wall. Yeah. I mean, still not worth it.
John Holmberg
But in cars with cameras now you just put it in reverse for half a second and look to see if you're all the way in. That's the only reason.
Brady
I mean, see if you're in. I don't know if you could tell.
John Holmberg
You can. There's a line your garage door makes. If you can see the line you're in is essentially it. But you don't want to find out. You go too far.
Brady
They're tapping first and then they're like, oh, I can back up a little bit.
John Holmberg
Right. Well, you don't want to hit the house. And they go, that's too far. Just about three more inches. Yeah. Tennis balls on strings. That is not a for dudes at all. If you're a guy with a tennis ball on a string, it's because you bought one of those honking trucks that you're not sure fits in your garage. And even still, you learn, and then you rip the tennis ball.
Brady
I think there might be some leeway for a man at 75 or 80, I think.
John Holmberg
Right.
Brady
I remember my grandfather.
John Holmberg
And why is that?
Brady
He put it up.
John Holmberg
Why is that? They stop producing testosterone and start producing so much hormones, they can't even tell how to park anymore. That's how it works. Hormones take over an old man's body. They start driving like women. I gotta watch the news. And they can bash us all day about what we don't do. Right? There's a few things out there, ladies. Yeah. I had to teach my husband that if I don't make dinner, he can go in the kitchen himself. I don't always feel like eating. Sometimes he looks at me and says, what's for dinner? Ugh. What did you do all day? If you sat there all day and you didn't make him dinner, it's your fault.
I had to take care of the kids.
So you wanted them. So did I. That's why I was at work all day. I had to take care of them face to face. Right. I'd have loved that. I had to go face to face with Moynihan all day. Wanna trade? Yeah. It's a big story. And it was all giggles and laughs. Karibe having the time of her life. Men are stupid, aren't they? Mark her. Anyway, we'll be right back. Another lady drove into a house. That's tragic, right? Yeah, crazy. We can't do that, though. We're not allowed to have those moments. Said I've dated two different girls in the past who used dish soap instead of dishwasher, detergent in the dishwasher and flood the kitchen both times. That is weird. I've done that before. I did that when I thought I was helping around the house. Of course, I was 13, and all I wanted to do was work the dishwasher because it was electronic and it was new. The dishwasher I have in my rental house, when it's done, the door opens. It's the coolest thing I've ever seen.
Brady
Wow.
John Holmberg
I didn't even know that was a feature on it. Like, did I just lose on prices? Right. What's happening in the kitchen? And starts to open. Opens about. I don't know. You had to air it out 10 or 10 degrees. Something like that. Wow. That's awesome. I have no idea. Like. And then it makes you want to do the dishes for a little while, as I do for a little while. But all I was doing was running a cycle to clean it out. I'm not gonna do dishes. There's no dishes there. Those plastic pots, did you have to.
Put that one together too?
No, that was. That came with the house. Thank God. Oh, no. Plumbing and electric bread. Forget it. No, no, no, no, no.
Brady
The new pots were able to take the dishwasher.
John Holmberg
No, I haven't put them in there. I'm not washing those things. They'll melt the dishwasher. Those will never get washed. That's going to be an Airbnb someday. And some poor SAP's going to have melted plastic pots from Temu. They. They say stainless steel, but these are the most childlike plastic things I've ever. There's no way those go in the dishwasher. I might leave them out in the sun just to see if they can handle 100 degrees. I don't think they will, but it'll be somebody else's problem when that's right.
First your pans or the egg on the sidewalk.
Or will an egg fry in that or will the pan melt first? I'm going to have to try that because it is not those Chinese. They rooked me on that teemo. That was a 12 piece cooking set. My God. Pretty good for a dollar eighty. I'll take that. Like my. All my team stuff showing up and it's. Some of it is hilarious. Dog bed made of real rabbit fur. My. Okay, it's a buck.
Brady
They're fighting over.
John Holmberg
The dogs loved it. I think it is real rat or rabbit. I'm not sure. But the dogs loved it. That's real rabbit. Dog love living on rabbit fur. Like I don't know if that's true or not there, but I'm buying it. Rabbit fur. Dog bed seems kind of like anti dog. Like an animal activist. Kind of like opposition to use the fur of another animal. I don't know if it was foe probably. I don't think they're actually slaughtering rabbits and making trio dog beds. It's Chinese. Chinese rabbits are different. They're called rats. He's a rabbit. No, it's not. It's close. He looked just like rabbit to me. Big ear, huge tail, run around on all fours. No, that's a rat. He's too big to be rat. Rabbit like a bug bunny. Then I'll fix it. 7:13. What do you got there on the big board of musical treats?
Brett, Wake up. Song brought to you by Action Ride Shop. Going in there now because, well, they have the new Pivot Shuttle, the sl. It's basically the same bike. You got the E bike, but this is the updated version of it. Plus they got full lines of Santa Cruz, Rocky Mountain. You name it, they got it. And they're going to get you on the trail the right way. So it's Action Ride Shop right there at the brand new location. Power Road and McDowell and of course EOG on Gilbert Road and Southern.
Ben says, I have a great way to keep your wife from going through the garage. I had to do it with my wife in her truck. Up against the wall, the back wall of the garage, I put an old twin mattress. So when she sees the mattress bow, she knows she's in far enough. Mattress kind of goes. Punches over a little bit.
Brady
So you're basically not. You're not going in through the.
John Holmberg
You're not walking around that truck, all the way around it. The new houses, garages are not built for the trucks a lot. They're short. They're so short.
Yeah, yeah.
I realized that my. My house, I got pretty deep garage. And you go into new houses like that. How do you get a car in here?
I barely fit my Mustang in my old. My house in Queen Creek.
Really? Yeah. Because the newer houses have tiny garages. This guy says he had a. Oh, boy. I don't know if I should read this. Oh, no, I'm not reading. It's about a lady and her boyfriend who didn't wipe his ass. You break up with that guy if you see skid marks in an adult man's underpants multiple times. Again.
Brady
First time you're getting it on.
John Holmberg
Oh, my God. If you. If he didn't go wash his ass. Come on. That's game over. Either of you. If you didn't go wash up before, scrub it. Gross. And then you wonder why she stops giving you BJ. She's been doing your laundry. Just don't get BJ's anymore, man. Can't figure it out. There's the turd stains all over your pants. That would deter me. Sorry. Go ahead, Brad.
On the list. Parkway Drive, Megadeth, Slipknot, Disturbed Land of Confusion for everything going on. Gnr, Havoc, Quiet Riot. For some reason, Pantera, Static X and Fear Factory.
Why not? We just got some news about Pantera that might be pretty cool. We can't talk about it yet.
Now I can't talk about it, but.
It is pretty awesome stuff that will involve you.
You'll love it.
You'll love it.
Yes.
Trust me. Pantera is coming to town here. What? September.
August.
August. Okay. And we've got. There's something. Something brewing. And it's pretty awesome. Really?
Yeah.
When I heard it, I'm like, okay, that might be the. Might be the best thing we've done in a time long. It probably won't happen now, but still. Lawyers will wreck it. But it's pretty awesome. And you guys get like, okay, I'll tell you, Phil and Selma is going to give you a tattoo on your face. That's not true, but it would be similar to that. Like that kind of contact. Before we get into the. The Wake up song, Brady and I, this is a thing. And I talked to a lady yesterday. A friend of the show has passed away. And he was on the show before. He was in Larry's dating game with B.B. jones and the other porn star. His name was Brian Breese. And Brian passed away yesterday. He has a congenital heart issue and all sorts of stuff went wrong with his heart. And he's been having trouble lately, but it was kind of a shocker. Like at 3:30 yesterday he passed away. So he's been on the show. He was a big fan of the show. He listened all the time, even when he didn't have to. He's a golf pro. And the worst part about this whole deal is, Brady, is that we no longer have connections at the Phoenician. It's terrible. It's awful what's happened to Brian and us. No, but it was. Brian was. He used to joke around all the time about dark humor. Like he would go back and forth with a lot of texts that were really bad. But again, I just wanted to say to him and anyone who knew him and his family, nicest guy. He was such a good dude. Just such a good guy. My big regret is, and maybe this is something I can pass on to everybody else. If you go through the last 20 texts that we had together and I guess he was not doing as well as he was letting on. I haven't seen him for a couple months, few months actually, probably since football season. He had an issue in January and then he got. There's probably 14 or 15 times that he tried to reach out and say, let's go do something. And I was actually, in fairness to me, there were two or three that were like, ah, next time, Brian. But there were. Most of the times I was actually in the middle of something else. We tried to hook up at a Sun's game. He was at the Sun's game. I was at the Sun's game. And then he went into the wrong club. And then we're like, we just lost track. If you've got one of those people in your life that you've kind of ducked accidentally, not on purpose, you really do want to do something with them, do something with them soon. Because this one took me by surprise. If you've got that guy, you're like, I really like this person. But we just can't seem to connect. Make. Make time to connect. Because that one. That one kind of kicked me in the nuts. His wife. Ex wife called me yesterday to inform me of what had happened. And she said the reason I called you is because I was going through his text and his last text with. Between the two of you were trying to arrange a time to go do something. And, you know, then you get the whole, he always loved you and this and that. She's got a great daughter named Macy and just all this stuff. And so when you said that, oh, all I thought was, she went through my text. I'm just a doctor.
Brady
The other text, too. Oh, I can imagine only where that could go.
John Holmberg
When you die, somebody has to go through and click. Because luckily, because I went back, my phone only keeps text for a couple weeks. Because just otherwise, yeah, there was some stuff that would have been very troubling. So, Brett, immediate. And another.
We've talked about this. I got you today.
Scrub your phone in case it's the last day and somebody finds your text. That's a good idea.
And have that friend that's going to come over and destroy your phone. You pass.
Right, because the ex wife got through. You know, I think you can still do face recognition to get into the text even when they're laying there. And she got in there and started going through his text and you know, she's the ex wife. They've been divorced for a long time. Still good friends. She's a great lady. I talked to her yesterday. She's a fantastic person. But yeah, it reminds me that if today is your last day, clear the cachet. Let's clear it out. Because you're right, Brady, I'm still alive.
Brady
No matter what the text. If you're sharing text, I mean, we're almost. Oh, yeah, there's going to be humor involved.
John Holmberg
Terrible stuff. If you're a fun person. There's some damning evidence in there. And it's not so much Brian he's gone. We'll miss him. Love the guy, but we're still around.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
And now people will think less of us. And that's the responsibility of the dying is to make sure that your friends are covered. You know, Time to go through all your stuff today and delete it. Paul Sura is not healthy. We need to talk to Paul today. Let's have an intervention to Paul today and say, hey Paul, first things first here. Delete all the phone stuff. Starting every day, first thing in the morning, Paul needs to delete his entire phone. All of it.
Nick Toledo

John Holmberg
Homeburg's morning sickness. That way.
We're all in there.
Somebody needs to subpoena his phone to find out how bad Brady actually is. That's exactly Brady's weird Middle Eastern videos that he sends over crippled people like that. We all laugh. I. We all make comments. Everybody has a friend like that and you know, trying to make light of something that is so, you know, incredibly dark in the death of a friend. But there is truth to this. In fact, I'm gonna do it right now. And boys, I'd like to see you do the same. Let's get rid of the HMS thread immediately and the all our text to Paul. In fairness, in case one of us.
Dies, there's some good stuff on.
Jesus I got to go through with a bunch of cops. I've got Scott Haynes. I've got J. Todd Hunt. I have to just delete all my texts, except for maybe Megan and your dad. No, no, that's not safe. Jesus. Yeah, I don't.
Fairchild.
Oh, my God. No, no, no. I got to delete them all.
Hopkins.
I gotta. Lynn Hopkins and I are terrible.
Oh, really?
Not so much that it would get us in trouble. Nah. Just to save Doug, maybe. There's a few things in there. I'm not too worried about the Doug Hopkins text. Although we're more just kind of make fun of each other. And his make a wish friend, Sam. That's crippled kids, though, same probably got. Got it deleted. Brain's going through his phone. Just in honor of our friend Brian Breese. We love you, Brian. But in honor of Brian and the fact that his wife found my number through the text. And like I said, the good news is, is that the last few texts with Brian and I were mostly him sending memes over and then him trying to get me to be a fan of Ole Miss. And because he was an Ole Miss grad and he wanted me to be a fan of theirs through the football season. Like, I don't have a college football team. I don't really care. So he's pushing Ole Miss on me. He wanted to take me to a game. And you've never seen a more beautiful campus. And I'm like, brian, I'm probably never going to go to Ole Miss football. It doesn't interest me. And he goes, dude, Jackson, Dartson. Back and forth with that. And then, you know, the whole thing she saw probably was more just like me dodging Brian. So then the last text was, hey, Brian, you know, we haven't seen each other for a while. Let's finally go out and get that. And she told me he was. He was never actually going to be able to do much. He was, you know, weakened by his condition. Not even very old, by the way, either. He just had a. His heart just was not good. He's in good shape, too, which was crazy. He wasn't super healthy. But anyway, in honor of our friend Brian, go through your phone today in case it's your last day, and protect your friends. Because it's not about protecting you. It's about protecting Brady. Think about it. Your wife finds your dead body. Oh, this is terrible. Tragedy. Tragedy. And then picks up your phone. What the hell? Brady's sending this cripple guy with no bones. Overdo him for what? That's not where it ends. It gets worse and worse and worse. Is that somebody throwing a boomerang and it turns into a swastika? Oh, my God, That. That's one of my favorite. Have you seen that one?
I've seen that one.
Oh, guy throws a boomerang in the air. Yeah, perfectly. And as it goes through the air, he says something like, you can really hear the noise as it comes back. And as it comes back in the air, because it's spinning. It looks like a swastika. And so somebody put in Hitler's speeches as it. So it goes over your head, goes away. It's like a. The French ambulance. And I laugh for half an hour. That's over. No, I'm deleting.
Delete it after that.
It's on there somewhere. You Google it. It's funny because it's silly. It's dark humor. My phone is loaded, so if I died right now, there'd be 60 or 70 guys on. On text going, wow, you got real problems, man. I went through Holmberg's phone, and you can't be a cop anymore. Like, the people lose their jobs, so. And it's also incumbent on all of us to not go through the phones of the deceased, I think. Don't you? Oh, I think that should be off limits. I don't think we can do it. I think curiosity, as human beings, you're gonna go through someone's phone if they're gone to see, you know, kind of for statistic reasons, say, who was the last person they text with? What was the last thing they text was the last thing I ever said to you. But that's up to the person on the other end. The living person can tell you that. Toledo, delete your phone. Toledo, immediately delete everything in your phone. And also the archives of the entire show, just in case. Because for the future, you don't want people.
Nick Toledo
We talked about it. Apple, I think, at one point debated putting, like, a nuclear button on their phone. So, like, if you. If you passed away, I could come.
John Holmberg
Up, you could nuke it, and a.
Nick Toledo
Button or whatever would wipe the whole phone. And so your whole thing, like, in a second, everything will go away. And people were like, yeah, but what if something murders on there?
John Holmberg
Yeah, exactly. Bad.
Yeah, we should have that.
I agree.
Put the button on there.
You know what we should have is an Apple should get on. This is sort of like a power of attorney for your phone, like a power of phone, and you only allow, like, no one else can possibly open it. Like, their fingerprints actually Shut the phone off.
Nick Toledo
Oh, there you go.
John Holmberg
And then you have to get it into the hands of like, let's say I'd put it in Toledo's hands. He'd know what to do. And then you go through and delete all this bad stuff and say, oh, his last text was to you. Of course. He loved you so much and beautiful. And then. Yeah, I don't have power of phone. Wives would. There'd be so many divorces because there's no dude that would let his wife have power of phone.
Nick Toledo
The guys at Trajan could put that into our estate plan.
John Holmberg
Good, that's great.
Nick Toledo
Fourth one down would be, here's his phone.
John Holmberg
Here's the exact instructions to here's power of phone.
Nick Toledo
Yep.
John Holmberg
And you can't. Your wife can't have it because she wouldn't understand the jokes. No, God forbid. The other, the pictures of the dude that Toledo saw with his finger in that girl at Starbucks and like, like.
Nick Toledo
Oh, Brett's video from yesterday with a four foot dong.
John Holmberg
Exactly. Why is that in your phone? I was married to a pervert. I remember when Chuck Artiga, our old boss, died and I went to his house and his wife just going through all these old papers didn't even go through his phone. He was too old to like, keep. And she goes, I don't even know who my husband is. He had a fifth wife. Like, huh, like, what are you telling me for? She found old papers of dissolved marriages that were. She didn't know about. Like, I don't even know who this man is. I'm like, 36 hour marriage. Did you love him or not? There was one that was longer than that. And it was while he was also married to someone else.
Oh, Christ.
Yeah, he did a couple of little crossover. He was drunk.
Nick Toledo
Chuck had a flip phone though, so.
John Holmberg
There was no nuclear button on that bottom line. She went through a bunch of his old stuff and revealed a lot.
Nick Toledo
Yeah.
John Holmberg
And she was mad at me. I'm like, I'm alive. Did you know about this? I'm like, I only knew the old man for 10 years. I knew him as your husband. I don't think he's married to anyone else as far as I knew. He never told me. That's what. Exactly what a friend would say. Like, mary, I think we're good here. I don't think that old dude was. I don't think he was doing anything. But it was. Yeah. Scrub. Scrub for the living. Scrub for the living. Hashtag, scrub for the living. That's my new movement. Not Protecting your dead ass. Who cares? Everybody feels bad. Breeze is gone.
Nick Toledo
Protecting them in a way though. In a weird way, sort of really protecting them.
John Holmberg
I don't care what happens to me when I'm dead. Find everything, however.
Nick Toledo
Yeah.
John Holmberg
You guys are still alive. Yeah, you don't want the stuff on my phone leaking out. Right?
Nick Toledo
Because then it's five steps away.
John Holmberg
You're still trying to get through life. Yeah. Now you got this hanging over your head. Scrub for the. Scrub for the living. Scrub for the living.
Nick Toledo
I try and tell Alex that all the time too. I'm like that Snapchat. It doesn't go away in 24 hours.
John Holmberg
No, no. Well, and. And that's kind of the idea is that make your whole phone a Snapchat kind of thing where it does go. At least somebody has to subpoena the company to go get all that. And nobody's gonna do that. If they do that, they hated you.
Nick Toledo
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Nobody subpoenas the dead to try to find out if Brady was up to something. That's terrible. Unless there's evidence of a murder or something. Then it's bigger than finding like bad jokes in there. Anyway, Brian, you taught us all lessons, even in your passing. But Brian. Bree was in the game show with Larry where we did the dating game to try to get Larry to bang the porn stars. And we had Breeze was a bb A very handsome guy. Brian, who's the third person I remember they had three contestants and the girls would ask questions and Brian froze like nobody ever froze. Oh before. And he was all like, man, they're gonna want to both go home with me. There's no way I'm losing this.
Brady
Most qualified in a way, a golf.
John Holmberg
Pro, super good looking guy. Like he was cruising along life. Everything was going well. He gets in there and B.B. jones asked him a question.
Nick Toledo
You just saw him sit down on the couch.
John Holmberg
Oh, and when she said, you are the lamest I've got Brian. Bruce deflated him completely. But we lost him yesterday. And luckily his ex wife found my text from him and said he. Oh, it was the worst ocean here in a. He always loved you. He talked about you all the time. Like I thought the world of the guy. Just you know what I. And I had to clear. I'm not dodging him. Like we just had different worlds going. She goes, trust me, it's okay cuz life happened. Yeah, exactly. So. But you know, if you've got a friend today, let that be the lesson. Listen, if you've got somebody, you're like, I do like this guy. I don't. I'm not dodging him. I've just been busy or kind of lazy or whatever else. Just take time to at least text back and go, dude, I've been really super lazy. We do need to hook up sometimes because you never know. I didn't see this coming at all. Brady texted me yesterday and said. Somebody just told me Brian passed away. What? And shortly after that, his wife called. Wow. Crazy. So friend of the show. It's not fun. And it's no fun when you have somebody they haven't seen for a while go away and didn't get a. Didn't get a chance to say anything to him. But I don't know. Does anybody really.
Nick Toledo
Is it bad that our show in Memoriam page is.
John Holmberg
It's getting big. We've been around for quarter century pretty long. It's a long list. I can't imagine. I mean, you know, the only difference between us and Beth is we haven't actually killed anyone. It's happening naturally on our own. Beth is the. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Beth is the Hillary Clinton of local radio. Go. She's had people just. She has.
Nick Toledo
She's Pizza gate.
John Holmberg
She has lost a few of her own. Don't piss her off. All right. I pick one. Brett. Sorry.
Why don't we just. In. In honor of the phone, we'll just do a static X destroyer.
All right. There you go. Yeah. Destroy the figures.

Or Scrub for the living. I got. People are like, listeners are going to send you the most outrageous and offensive stuff to rebuild your collection. That's so true. And then. Don't worry about it.

It needs to be Mission Impossible, where the phone self destructs as soon as your heartbeat ends. Boom.
It knows your heart.
Yeah, it does.
So the second in there recognizes your heart is broken or dead. Phone shuts down. Yep. And then it goes to power of phone, which I'm going to make Brady my power of phone because he's the most moral man I know and he would erase stuff that I think is okay. You said crippled. You can't. You can't say dyke even when you're talking about the dam. He delete everything that could get him in trouble. That's smart, Brady. You have my power of phone. The Power of phone. You have power of phone. That's perfect. I think that's good. Yeah. Destroyer, Brett, you are second on Power Phone. In case I lose Brady first. I don't know if I like that, but I know Brett's good at scrubbing evidence.
Oh, you know, I'm not gonna.

There's no snitches here. It's gone.
Not even about snitches. You're gonna take care of everything to make you look good. Oh, yeah. I don't think the guy even had my number. John. Who did what? I'm Power Phone. I've never met him.
Brady

We have evidence of you being on his show for five years. The bald guy? Yeah. I hardly talked to him. I kept to my own.
Which one? There was a couple bald guys around the building.
The weird one. Chemo boy. Which one? Oh, what a shame. God bless. And then the phone is zeroed out. I don't think he actually knew him. And then the rumor would just go around. You know, Brett and John never met. It was all AI Static X. Destroy it for the living. It's Destroyer. It's 98 KUPD. It's out of control now.
