The hosts delve into the mishandling of the discovery, highlighting the man’s unconventional approach to reporting the find. John questions:

The hosts express skepticism about the safety and practicality of adding such a risky ingredient to instant ramen. John humorously remarks:

"If not, you die. So enjoy your ramen." [03:48]

Brent compares the meticulous preparation required for fugu to everyday food choices, poking fun at the notion:

"I'd just throw out the cards and it'd be like, oh, you're at rock bottom." [05:15]

John praises the accuracy of the tarot reader with a touch of sarcasm:

"Don't worry about it." [05:12]

The group discusses the reliability of such predictions, with John humorously suggesting:

"If you go to a tarot card reading, you're at rock bottom. You have run out of options on how to fix lives." [05:29]

4. Controversy Surrounding Indianapolis Vegan Restaurant 'Plantastic'

Timestamp: [06:02] – [10:08]

"A small vegan restaurant with a focus on fighting climate change through food... they've banned kids under five and breastfeeding in public." [06:17]

Brett and John critique the restaurant’s policies, debating the implications of such bans. John provocatively states:

"I only ban it for disgusting women." [07:15]

• Memphis instead of Nashville
• Napa, California instead of Tuscany, Italy

Other notable mentions include:

• Eiffel Tower, Paris
• Anne Frank House, Amsterdam
• Sagrada Familia, Spain

"She didn't show up to pick her up, take her to the airport, and didn't ever go to the house." [24:49]

The court ultimately decides against awarding her any money, leading John to express incredulity:

[Brady]

Good Thursday morning to you Phoenix.

[John Holmberg]

Hello world.

[Brady]

Hi. Officials in Anderson, South Carolina said a man found human remains while hiking. However, instead of notifying police immediately, he brought the bones to a Goodwill store, a drop off store, and picked up a box. Put the bones in the box, then took them to the police department. Then the. Was it. Then the police went back. He said, what area? You were hiking. They went back there. They found several more bones. They had been there for a while. Bones didn't match. But they're like, why? You know, I could see. I guess you put them in a box and then go to the police department.

[John Holmberg]

Sure.

[Brady]

Bone don't fit.

[John Holmberg]

You must have quit.

[Brett]

No. Never take bones that you see.

[Brady]

Human bones.

[John Holmberg]

Really? I would have thought the other way.

[Brett]

Tell the police where they are.

[John Holmberg]

Let them keep walking. No, Brett told me. Walking. Yeah. Brett told me ignore it or kick it around or move stuff. Right, that. Yeah.

[Brett]

Disturb the crime scene.

[John Holmberg]

Is that what you said? You say call the police and make sure that. Oh, I guess I see some logic in that. Where.

[Brady]

Officials say the bones appeared have been there for a long time. And they were scattered in a large area. Cup noodles has a new flavor out. I don't. Not sure it's gonna make its way to the U.S. it's using the puffer fish, the fugu, which is that poisonous fugu. Chefs train two years to make ramen to learn to serve this fugu takes 19 seconds.

[John Holmberg]

Jesus. Add water. Yeah.

[Brady]

No, you can make the ramen in two minutes. But they got the fugu oil in there.

[John Holmberg]

And they have to make sure it's not deadly, right? Yeah.

[Brady]

Because every part of that fish, the skin, the organs, bones, it'll kill blood, all is loaded with poison.

[John Holmberg]

Worth the risk.

[Brady]

You have to prepare it just right.

[John Holmberg]

And if not, you die. So enjoy your ramen.

[Brady]

The fugu.

[John Holmberg]

No, ramen noodle.

[Brady]

Two bucks a cup at best.

[John Holmberg]

Ramen's okay. You can get a good ramen. It's okay. It's not worth the poison due to order.

[Brett]

And ramen in Japan is a whole other.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, sure. Experience.

[Brady]

So many varieties they have.

[Brett]

It's like a vending machine. You go to a vending machine, you click what you want and it gives you a ticket. And then somebody goes and makes it.

[John Holmberg]

Sounds like burgers here.

[Brett]

Order it from a menu.

[John Holmberg]

Japanese people probably come here.

[Brady]

They're gonna put peanut butter.

[John Holmberg]

They have everything on a burger. You'll be amazing there. They're like ramen. Watch this.

[Brady]

These are the ones you love. This lady in Genesee County, Michigan, went to a tarot card reader, got a reading.

[John Holmberg]

Smart already.

[Brady]

The lady told her she was gonna come into some money very soon. She played the 50 time wild scratch off lottery ticket in Michigan. Won $500,000.

[John Holmberg]

Nice. That's pretty great.

[Brady]

Sent me the information on the tarot card. Reader. Cause I'm sure she could get a lot of business right now. You're not going to come into money.

[John Holmberg]

Don't. Don't worry about it.

[Brady]

Oh, my gosh, you're so right.

[John Holmberg]

I just feel bad for people who open the door. You just do that thing at the. Is this the tarot card place? Of course it is. Sit down. Oh, my life. My life is waiting for you. And if. If I was a tarot card reader, I just. I'd throw out the cards and it'd be like, oh, you're at rock bottom. And I'd say it to everybody who's in there, because if you go to a tarot card reading, you're at rock bottom. You have run out of options on how to fix lives. You need a. I just won The Powerball.

[Brady]

The 1.2 bill.

[John Holmberg]

You're. Why are you here? I don't know. Having a little fun on the side, I guess. Ooh.

[Brady]

This card here is going to say you're going to lose a lot of money.

[John Holmberg]

Your. Your. Your life's not working out, is it?

[Brady]

How do you.

[John Holmberg]

You're just. You see, it's also clear. Yeah. Otherwise you wouldn't be at a tarot card reading.

[Brady]

This restaurant in Indianapolis is receiving some backlash.

[John Holmberg]

Mm. It's all over, folks. He's got it down. Damn it. It was more entertaining. Good.

[Brett]

Solid pause, though.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Brady]

It's called Plantastic. It's a small vegan restaurant with a focus on fighting climate change through food. It opened up four months ago with about 10 tables. The small staff, but the owners, Tana and Gary Bartlett, say they've put. So. Put most of their savings into this. Their former career or engineers. They are now saying the restaurant bans kids under five, citing that they've had to pick up dirty diapers off the table and also banned breastfeeding in public routine.

[John Holmberg]

It is happening.

[Brady]

Vegan restaurant.

[John Holmberg]

I don't like vegan stuff, but I'll go there. The great child backlash is occurring.

[Brady]

The people weren't so upset about banning kids under 5, but how dare you try to stop our breastfeeding?

[John Holmberg]

Well, depends on what you look like. I only ban it for disgusting women.

[Brady]

The banning under five is okay, but there is some problems with the breastfeeding because you can't just go do it in the bathroom. According to City coach. Like, they have to breastfeed. Yeah, I don't know what the big.

[John Holmberg]

Deal, but it's like that Joey Chestnut thing with the vegans, too. Like, they're mad at him for having vegan hot dogs as a sponsor. And Nathan's just like, how dare you. And it's like, hey.

[Brady]

But then Nathan's realized that we just screwed up our whole tournament. You know what? You're welcome back.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. And then him and Kobayashi are going to have a one on one in September. September. They're going head to head.

[Brady]

He's coming out of retirement.

[John Holmberg]

Hot Dog eating. One on one Mano a mano wiener festival. Don't Google that. Talk about money. Don't google mono a mano Wiener eaters.

[Brett]

You're gonna end up with one of Brett's videos. Oh, you're gonna end up with the one from yesterday.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, it just directs you to the alt Az website. Yeah, yeah. What's Mo up to put mono o mano wiener eaters. And suddenly I'm learning about 21 pilots. By the way, Kyle makes a great point. If you ban people under five, haven't you in turn banned breastfeeding?

[Brett]

Bingo.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

If there's, if there's still a breastfeeding problem and nobody cares about banning somebody under five, then there's people who have five plus year old kids that they want to breastfeed. Yeah. Yeah. The vegan place saying, hey, we ban anybody with coming in here who's under five years old.

[Brady]

I think what they're also saying is five also is the cut for the most part. No more diapers.

[John Holmberg]

Okay, but it doesn't matter.

[Brady]

Maybe that's right because they were complaining that people would leave. They had a couple of cases. Well, people would have that folded up diaper and leave it on top of the table.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know. If a five year old's in diapers, that's a dumb five year old. You've got yourself a goofy five year old. But if you ban five, you pretty much ban diapers and breastfeeding. And if anybody's, if there's quote as Brady calls it, backlash going into that restaurant saying, why have you banned breastfeeding? I'm fine with that five year old thing, but I want to breastfeed my kid in here. How old is it? Because if it's under five, we've already killed that problem. Not killed it, but again, I do have more liberal abortion laws though.

[Brady]

Yikes.

[John Holmberg]

I do. I can't believe how archaic our abortion. Here's the other thing. Breastfeeding isn't vegan. They're at a vegan restaurant. That's true. It's dairy. Vegans don't eat that unless it's just human dairy. No, they get rid of Milk. Animal dairy, though.

[Brett]

Maybe.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know. Anything's from an animal. But I've gotten a few that say breastfeeding's not. I don't know anything about it.

[Brady]

Soy milk.

[John Holmberg]

It's all natural mom milk.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Good band name. Natural mom milk. All natural mom milk. I like that. Yeah. I don't know how that works with.

[Brady]

It wouldn't be. I don't think.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know. Is it considered dairy when it comes out of your mother's teat or any mother's teat? What if I drank someone else's breast milk, which I've done. Am I. Is that anti vegan or does it just have to be. I think it's okay, but it has to be straight from the natural mom tap. Hey, I don't care about that. Where were you drinking breast milk at? A lady here. Yeah. August 5, 2005. Shot breast milk into my mouth from across the room. Further.

[Brett]

Further away than you are, Brett.

[John Holmberg]

She had a 13 foot stream on that thing. Clown's mouthed me too. I just opened my mouth and. I mean, it was. She didn't.

[Brett]

She was giddy about it.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, it was great. Well, I was more impressed that she didn't dabble. I didn't get hit in the face. It was right tongue shot. It was warm and it tasted like. When you leave Sugar Pops in the milk. It tasted like Sugar Pops milk, only it was warm. It was 98.7 degrees. It was her body temp. I didn't take it directly from the tap, but she squeezed that thing and. Right into the mouth hole. And I do it again just for the spectacle of it all. But not at that vegan restaurant. But is that vegan or am I anti vegan? Because that was some other lady's dairy. I think vegan is animal stuff. I think that she's just another animal on the planet. Well, you know, not human. Yeah.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know how it works. I think that's how vegan is. Yeah, I think so too. That you don't take anything from an animal. Right. Including their breast milk. But I'll do it again because some of those crazy ones you can't even wear like leather shoes or jackets and stuff. It says vegan is just cruelty free to animals. So breastfeeding is vegan.

[Brady]

So when you buy like vegan butter, it means the treatment of the cows.

[John Holmberg]

What are you worried about that?

[Brady]

I don't know. I just see it in our account. Ronnie buys vegan.

[John Holmberg]

She does. He's heard rumors about That I think.

[Brady]

Nothing to do with it.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, it doesn't have any animals in it. Yeah. I think it's plant based. Plant based butter or something like that. That's my guess. I know. Don't. Now you're going to go right to look at them reaching. Look at them reaching.

[Brett]

Because what makes automatic.

[Brady]

It's automatic because you're not probably sore. I mean the cow is.

[John Holmberg]

That was Pavlovian diet.

[Brady]

And you're not really taking. But taking them.

[John Holmberg]

No. But anything comes from an animal they don't use. And cruelty free is different than like zero.

[Brett]

The vegan discussion you sit out on.

[John Holmberg]

You don't need to.

[Brady]

Insects eating locusts and stuff like that.

[Brett]

Probably.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know. Here's the thing. I guarantee you there's la candlelights in your fridge too. So stop touching her vegan butter. That's not yours. Can you imagine him putting the wrong thing on his toaster?

[Brady]

Oh my God.

[John Holmberg]

What the. Is this vegan? And what is this crap over here too? There's some curdled cheese in here. Cota hay, pata hay cheese.

[Brady]

What is this?

[John Holmberg]

Cottage cheese? Look, it's rotten.

[Brady]

I'll go with the Kerrygold Irish butter.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know what that is. You just got vegan.

[Brett]

That's because it's not vegan.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, you said that like you were jerking off. By the way. There was an awful lot of satisfaction. All right. I don't know how it works with mother's breasts, but you stay out of the vegan aisles, you're just gonna cause a ruckus. You're like a Palestinian protester and a vegan aisle. We know you're there to cause trouble.

Start the process online right now@doug hopkins.com or grab that phone and sing Hopkins Holmberg's Morning Sickness. Wait, you don't ever eat mom cheese? No, sir. No, Philip, I don't. If mom made cheese directly from the tap, I'd be upset with that.

[Brady]

There's a new trend, travel trend going called destination dupes to help people save money. Basically, 61% of Americans say they're interested in a dupe of a vacation destination to save money. Like going to Memphis instead of Nashville or Napa, California instead of Tuscany. Italy.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, just cheaper. Okay.

[Brady]

Belfast instead of London. Liverpool instead of London.

[John Holmberg]

But are you telling people you're going to London?

[Brady]

No, they're just saying for a similar experience. Or. Oh, like Leavenworth, Washington, instead of Bavaria, Germany.

[Brett]

Leavenworth's great, but it is nowhere near Germany.

[John Holmberg]

You're nowhere near Germans. How is the experience even close?

[Brady]

Oh, because they made it a German town.

[John Holmberg]

Okay. But it's in America and everybody speaks English.

[Brady]

And it's Newport, Rhode island, instead of Nice, France.

[John Holmberg]

That's dumb. No, that's that one in California. The one that in wine country. It's like a Norwegian town or Swedish town. Solvang. Yeah, that's it. Yeah. Yeah. And they've got pea Soup Anderson. Yeah, that place. Crazy huge restaurant full of peace, pea soup and huge. Yeah, it's Solvang and whale tonight or no. Is that right? I think that's right. But is that in that wine? Yes. And sideways.

[Brady]

Yes.

[John Holmberg]

It's a great place. I went to Pea Soup Anderson's a lot. You go in there. I don't like pea soup, but it smells really good. There's 7 million different tables in there, and they're all just cramming down green. And I mean, the whole place stinks. But it's on the Avenue of the Flags, which is really neat. And then there's another place, the Lady Madonna Inn, and that's pretty close to that, too. And it's known for its bathrooms. The bathrooms are extraordinary. They were all mirrored and, like, really well done. It's a neat little area. But you're right, it's kind of a. It's bush league. Yeah. Wine country. But it's wine country and that, you know, Antelope Valley, I think is behind it is stunning.

[Brady]

Another one. They said western Colorado instead of Iceland.

[John Holmberg]

No, it's Colorado.

[Brady]

Tarpon Springs, Florida, instead of the Greek Isles.

[John Holmberg]

None of this matters. Why, instead of quit being cheap, you're going to Florida. Colonnaded.

[Brady]

Dupe.

[John Holmberg]

And how is it duplicated? I went to Colorado instead of Iceland. Well, you went to Colorado. You didn't even have to add the last.

[Brett]

I think you're using that word dupe wrong.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, because it's not in place of destination dupes. Destination, dumbass. You went to Colorado. Don't bring in that. Instead of Iceland. No, instead of the moon, I went to Mesa. I'm like, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Well, it doesn't replace the moon. Right? Neither did Colorado replace Iceland. Go to your freezer and say you went to Iceland.

[Brady]

TripAdvisor released its list of the best tourist attractions in the world in 2024. They base it on reviews. So what? People who recently went there thought of it.

[John Holmberg]

Okay.

[Brady]

The number one this year was in the US The Empire State Building. Number one tourist attraction in the world based upon reviews.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, oh, oh. Good. Good trip, I see.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Toledo certainly isn't going to be on the list of best yacht vacations.

[Brady]

Number two is the Eiffel Tower.

[John Holmberg]

Said no one ever said everyone who went there. No, exactly. Everyone who went there. It's better than I thought. I'd still rather be in New York City.

[Brady]

Number three, the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam.

[John Holmberg]

Now that is i5.

[Brett]

Come on anchor watch.

[John Holmberg]

I'll give you no, because I'm still in Amsterdam when I leave Anne Frank's house all sad, at least I can get stoned to the beach. Jesus.

[Brady]

And the Sagrada Familia in the church in Spain. The Crystal Caves and the Cayman Islands.

[John Holmberg]

Empire State Building beat all this stuff.

[Brady]

Yeah. The Coliseum in Rome. The Louvre in Paris.

[John Holmberg]

By the way, how about us as humans making Anne Frank a tourist attraction? Put that on for a second.

[Brett]

Exactly.

[John Holmberg]

Wander around in the attic that little girl got. Had to hide from the Nazis until they found her. Sure. How much? 15 bucks.

[Brett]

Feel the same way about, like, Auschwitz?

[Brady]

Why would you go there?

[Brett]

I mean, other than the history, I mean.

[John Holmberg]

Right? But that's like a semi.

[Brady]

And you're the guy that gives it a bad review.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. What? There was zero churro stands? I heard churros were popular here. Do they have like a lemonade or Pepsi machine at Auschwitz or something? They have to, right? You have to supply some.

[Brady]

I don't think so.

[John Holmberg]

They gotta have a pop. No, there's hot days in Auschwitz, trust me.

[Brett]

On the outside of town, maybe.

[John Holmberg]

Maybe in the train. Do they train you in. Is that like part of the.

[Brady]

Or if there's any dining area.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know how you get there.

[Brady]

I don't think you in.

[John Holmberg]

It's pre built.

[Brady]

I'm pretty sure there's none of that.

[John Holmberg]

There's no Pepsi machine. Like there isn't a visitor center. There has to be. Has to be. There's a Pepsi machine in there.

[Brady]

I think they tell you.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, it would be tough to walk around Auschwitz with a Pepsi in your hand though.

[Brady]

Yeah. Because then you're dealing with anything with a logo.

[Brett]

Trash anything with a logo.

[John Holmberg]

Well, not even that lit. If you litter at Auschwitz, you're a bigger dick than him. Like if you walk through the hallowed grounds and just toss the can on the ground, somebody will get it. That's just dick. Yeah, you might be right. They might not. Do they have trash cans or like hot dogs?

[Brady]

Like, you don't want to deal with that.

[John Holmberg]

No, I guess not. So they tell you before, I hope. Just like they did originally. I hope you all had something to eat before we get there because you're not getting fed at Auschwitz. Well, that's. You haven't changed at all.

[Brady]

The only one close to your comment. Toledo was the Abu Dhabi's largest mosque, the Sheikh Zayd.

[John Holmberg]

Are you looking at Auschwitz on a map?

[Brett]

That's the memorial. That's not.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, that's not Auschwitz. You look at them, they're off in the woods. The Dachau one is horrifying.

[Brady]

Oh yeah, it's outside of the.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, they didn't plop that thing right down in the cities. Horrible. Yeah. And I don't. I would visit it just because history is so fascinating and. But there's no. That's just not a fun day. I went to the Kennedy sixth floor museum. Had a great time up there. And then I felt real bad that I had such a great time up there. Like, this is a really awful place.

[Brady]

The fact that you wanted to come back.

[John Holmberg]

I did it three times. Every time I'm in Dallas, I go to that thing.

[Brady]

You want to eventually have Thanksgiving?

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, I want to eat on the X. But that has more to do with the fact that he represents Thanksgiving to me because of all the specials. But yeah, Oshwit's a little different. And Anne Frank's house, evidently, I've seen pictures of it. You have to climb like a straight up and down ladder to get into the attic. It's like dangerous. They won't let certain people do forever. Why?

[Brady]

Well, I mean, there's got to be a line.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, sure.

[Brady]

I mean, how much. You know, probably resolution. Take some time individually up there. And I keep.

[John Holmberg]

Isn't that big.

[Brady]

So I'm saying so. And ultimately maybe. Maybe it's appointment only.

[John Holmberg]

I would assume they have reservations.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

Ultimately, it's an attic. You're just going up there to feel terrible. There isn't any. Nobody's going up there going. This isn't so bad.

[Brady]

In a retirement.

[Brett]

So there's a gate.

[John Holmberg]

There's Auschwitz. Is there. Do you see a Pepsi machine on the GPS or like a refreshments? Because a lot of times they'll put a little fork and knife, like nearby.

[Brady]

What's the closest Wolf Games bistro right outside McDonald's. McDonald's.

[John Holmberg]

Way to go, America. Plopped a McDonald's down outside Auschwitz. Last stop.

[Brett]

That's the only one that pops up on the map.

[John Holmberg]

No more food for five miles.

[Brady]

Where was that located? That was pretty far outside.

[Brett]

Blocks off by the thing.

[Brady]

It's not on the property or less.

[Brett]

Than a mile away.

[Brady]

Yeah, that's.

[John Holmberg]

Would you call that a food desert? Just saying.

[Brett]

Just hit me.

[John Holmberg]

No, that's. It's a tough thing to open a.

[Brady]

Restaurant on the actual property. Yeah, there's no.

[John Holmberg]

As a capitalist, we've made it a tourist attraction. It got to be a guy who's like, well, there's a lot of people coming through here. I could run a pretty nice business selling schnitzel.

[Brett]

Closest thing is you get water at the fountain of tears.

[John Holmberg]

It's just all awful. The whole trip to me seems like I can get enough of this on tv. I don't need to stand there, be horrified. It's the saddest place on the planet. But they have to have Pepsi or Coke.

[Brett]

Your closest thing to a gift shop is a bookstore.

[John Holmberg]

Or what if they had like a soda you didn't like? Like they still had Sierra Mist or something like, ah, crap, this sucks. You can't say that at Auschwitz.

[Brett]

Shasta.

[John Holmberg]

I like Shasta. I'd be all right with that.

[Brett]

Faygo.

[John Holmberg]

Faygo's good too. Yeah, let's not get upset about those. Knee high. Maybe a little bit. Actually. Probably a nostalgic.

[Brady]

The only one I would say is be real happy is elf diet cola.

[John Holmberg]

But if you went in there, you're like, all right, Coke. You can't get too excited, you know, that is a rough place. And it's a tourist attraction. What we consider tourist attractions is weird. It's a lot of tragedy that we go to. Well, you don't have, like, places that celebrate awesome stuff. Mostly where people Croat, like, we don't go to where, like, I don't be bad for them too, I suppose, where we, like, we don't go to Hiroshima. And like.

[Brady]

Yeah, Ground zero.

[John Holmberg]

We got him. Here's your. Yeah, I know, but I mean. Yeah, Al Qaeda. Would they go and celebrate Ground zero? Yeah, but there's no happy memorials. God, I don't want to look at that. That's awful. Just pictures of it on GPS and just Google.

[Brett]

It's way bigger than what imagine.

[John Holmberg]

Anyway, that's a tourist attraction, and you can Yelp it.

[Brady]

This woman in New Zealand just sued her boyfriend of six years for not driving her to the airport. You hear about this story? She said, sure, he's supposed to pick her up, take her to the airport. I heard a little bit of it yesterday, but I wanted to dive into it because he also promised to stay home at her house and dog sit. So they live separately.

[John Holmberg]

Okay.

[Brady]

They've been going out for six years. No showed to pick her up, take her to the airport, and didn't ever go to the house.

[John Holmberg]

Didn't fix the dog either, so she.

[Brady]

Took him to court.

[Brett]

Did Brett get to him?

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Where did we find this guy? I bet you 36th Street, McDowell and dog sitter is going to be somewhere in that area.

[Brady]

The judge heard the case and considered whether that the agreement was legally binding, but decided not to award her any money.

[John Holmberg]

Good. Really? I called goddamn Uber.

[Brady]

That's what I'm saying.

[John Holmberg]

Like, if he didn't call a friend. Yeah, but you hired. She did. If I call you another friend, if I hired you to watch my dogs and you just didn't show up, I might sue you, too. Yeah, but you call another friend. But I don't know, you're not showing up till I get home.

[Brady]

So she.

[John Holmberg]

I thought she didn't even make the trip because she couldn't get a ride to the airport. Well, that's okay. If that's the case, why does she need a dog sitter?

[Brady]

Well, that. Well, after the fact, she threw that in there.

[John Holmberg]

So she actually.

[Brady]

She's just being cheap. Wait a minute. She did not. She went the next day.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, and he knew that then? Because I assume your girlfriend calls you and says, that's on her. Yeah, but she still trusted him. Okay, that's the first date. What, you think he's going to show up now. I'll change on that one. You're right. He didn't show up to pick you up. You're going to call him and say, hey, still, I still trust you enough to watch my dog. You're right. All right, you swung me on this. Well done. Because at first I'm thinking, so she.

[Brady]

Threw that in there. Basically the cost of the shuttle and the cost of the dog sitter.

[John Holmberg]

Right.

[Brady]

And the judge is like, sorry, it's not a binding.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, all right, I'll go with you on that. She's just trying to milk a dude out of money because she's bitter and angry. What you need to do is. Yeah, I can't do. That's right. I said she's bitter and angry. Yeah. Typical broad. It's a little bit of an angriness coming out of you, too, but I. Okay, I'm with you, then. Because I thought he was supposed to take her to the airport. Then he finally did. She left, and he was supposed to watch the dogs. And if you don't take me to the airport and I call you and it's like, sorry, forgot. You're not watching my dogs. I remember trying to explain to Doug Fairchild he was going to watch my dogs, and the cat needed a shot. And I remember that moment because there's a lot going on at my house to watch my dogs. I remember the moment I said, you're not doing this. His eyes went blank, and I realized, he's not going to remember any of this. That cat's going to be dead. None of these dogs are going to get the right food. It was Fairchild. I know. He just wanted a place to get away. Can I stay at your house for four days? I'm like, let's take a couple extra days, as a matter of fact. I got you, pal. Wait, you gotta feed these things every day? Yeah, Doug, twice a day. Some of them have dietary needs. Oh, boy. Is a white claw a dog? Dietary needs? No, Doug, we're not gonna do that. Arizona's most powerful, powerful rock radio station.
