Brady's Shrinking Dilemma

The episode kicks off with Brady Bogen sharing a personal moment that has been on his mind:

Brady (01:38): "The best of Holmberg's morning sickness. This is the big red radio. I got that. And then yesterday, Brady and I had a moment that has been weighing on me..."

Brady recounts how, following his hip surgery, he felt taller due to adjustments in his pelvis and speculates about losing height over time. His concern becomes a humorous focal point as he discusses interactions where his height is playfully challenged.

Height-Related Banter and Interactions

The conversation takes a lively turn as Brady and Bret exchange jokes and observations about height:

Brady (04:30): "I don't know. You're close to 5:1. I think you lose more than that. Think a torpedo."

Bret (05:02): "Yeah, I'm still six foot."

Brady (05:03): "Yeah. That's the golden standard of manhood, six feet. If you're not there, you're..."

The duo humorously debates the societal expectations tied to being six feet tall, highlighting the insecurities and playful competitiveness that often accompany such discussions.

Brady (07:24): "Imagine Larry and Shannon. Oh, they're going to be 2ft tall."

Their lighthearted exchange continues as they joke about friends and acquaintances, emphasizing the camaraderie and the ability to laugh at personal quirks.

Reflections on Aging and Perception

Brady opens up about his thoughts on aging and the fear of losing stature, both literally and metaphorically:

Brady (11:38): "Well, people are looking up."

Brady (12:01): "So my entire family is tall. John, this is from Abrim. I got the 5 foot 7 inch Jean. With that I've got more room in the car..."

He reflects on the adjustments one might need to make as they age, such as changing household fixtures and the challenges of maintaining height in a society that often equates height with presence and authority.

Humorous Anecdotes and Character Mentions

Throughout the episode, Brady and Bret reference various characters and hypothetical scenarios to illustrate their points humorously:

Brady (08:27): "Which one? Super tiny Sam."

Bret (09:06): "Got that little arch in the wall or hole."

They discuss fictional characters like Sam, a "make-a-wish kid," and playful notions of lizards growing bigger, adding layers of humor and absurdity to their conversation about height and perception.

Brady (1:38)

The best of Homburg's morning sickness. This is the big red radio. I got that. And then yesterday, Brady and I had a moment that has been weighing on me. Brett, you're six. Three. Yeah, thereabouts. I'm just a hair, just a smidge over six feet barely. I count each and every tenth of an inch in my height. And after my hip surgery, I was pretty convinced I got a little taller because my hips were jammed into my pelvis. I tight like the X ray you can see. And then when I got them done a mini boost you can see and I felt taller. And I told the doctor, like I'm not crazy. Am I a little taller from this? Like, even if it's a half an inch, he goes, that's insane. Like, yeah, but the X ray would show different. Like my Legs are in different spots. And he goes, I don't know, maybe like it never dawned on him, like, I think I'm a little taller.
