Would you have guessed mud shovel is 29 years old?
Brett Vesely
I would have guessed maybe 20, maybe, but no, not. Not that old. Jesus.
John Holmberg
Yeah, I know. I would have thought. Yeah, I thought maybe 2002 or three. Yeah, yeah. Wow. No, 96. How about that? Suck on that one time. Ah, got it. Got. I gotta. I gotta stop. 93. 3. Those phrases you hear over there quite a bit. So it's gonna normalize when the owners here suck on that one time. If it's Katie kb, They're like, oh, yeah, that makes sense if I'm saying it. Next thing you know, there's meetings and all sorts of stuff. Gotta be careful. I gotta be on our. On our toes today with the ownership group in town. Safeway is where Brett is this morning doing wonderful philanthropic things.
Brady
How was the traffic, Brett?
John Holmberg
Yeah, how was it? This one give us a traffic report.
Brett Vesely
Well, thank God I got a traffic report from you guys. It got me here that much faster. My late start.
John Holmberg
Did you see other cars?
Brett Vesely
Traffic was great on the 101.
John Holmberg
What? That you saw other cars? Because that was our traffic report was there's going to be cars out there. Watch out for those.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, I saw a couple of them. Thank you so much for that. It got me here in, like, no time at all.
John Holmberg
Did you take my advice that when the other cars slow down, you should too?
Brett Vesely
Yeah, yeah, I did, actually. It made the drive so blissful.
John Holmberg
How do we not have a traffic report? Sponsored. With this kind of awesome information that we're handing out. It's amazing.
Brady
Any broad alerts?
John Holmberg
Yeah, do you have any hot broad alerts? It's time for Brett's hot broad alert.
Brett Vesely
No, they're all. They're all still sleeping. I did drive through ASU to get here, but, yeah, they're still all sleeping. I didn't see any walks of shame.
John Holmberg
E. Yeah, you didn't. You didn't look over at one of the cars and go, whoa. Oh, the man's trying to eat. Yeah. No, no. All right. Just checking. Yeah. Cause you're right. And you make a good point there, Brett. Accidentally even that the really hot girls aren't getting up right now. They don't have to work if you're really hot, you don't have to work right now. If you're. If you're already at work, you're like a five. You may think you're not, but you're like a five or six. Look, trust me. I'm taught. I'm speaking from experience. I get up at 4 in the morning to go to work. I'm a 2 at best, maybe.
Brady
So if you're going still summer break for the walk of shame.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
In the fall, you start seeing them.
John Holmberg
Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah. If you're, if you're at work right now, I'm sleeping.
Brett Vesely
The strip club's closed already.
John Holmberg
That's true. Yeah. Maybe you're heading home from work. It could still be like an 8. But if you're at work right now, you're. You're a five or a six.
Brett Vesely
And every morning when you wake up, you're like, why do I get up this early? And you look in the mirror and you're like, oh, yeah, that's why.
John Holmberg
Oh, my face. That's keeping me from success. I get it now. Oh, it's me. It's that damn head of mine. It's all of us. I'm surprised, honestly. I look in the mirror and I'm surprised. I, I, I. I'm not at work at 2 in the morning. Nosferatu or something. Anyway, Brett's out there this morning at Safeway, killing it this year so far for Operation Hydration. Just clobbering. All the records are falling halfway through the year of Operation Hydration, and it's just from Memorial Day to Labor day, we have 500,000 bottles donated. That's incredible. Now we have to get another 500,000 to hit our goal, which I stupid. I stupidly brought this up in one of the meetings when we first talked about, like, you know, this, this year and what we're going to do, and let's hit a million. And everybody's like, oh, my God, could we do it? And then they spewed up the numbers from last year. We're at 500,000. So we got halfway through the summer, and we're right on target. But we have to do what seemingly was impossible for the first six weeks, the last six weeks. So, Brett, it's up to you. How's it looking out there at Rural and Broadway today?
Brett Vesely
It's looking good. No broads yet, but we are getting tons of donations.
John Holmberg
I've had.
Brett Vesely
I've had envelopes showing up like crazy. Daniel swung by, threw me a hundred bucks. Ain't got time for this. There you go.
John Holmberg
Shopping. Nice.
Brett Vesely
I'm going shopping for him. Somebody from some lady from the city of tempe dropped by 10 cases for us. I mean, so it's. It's a good start. A late start, but a good start out here. So we'll be hanging out here till, I don't know, almost. Almost nine o', clock right here at Rural and Broadway at Safeway. So. And of course, we got to thank our sponsors, obviously, Safeway and Albertsons, Learner Row, and of course, Amco for helping us make all these shenanigans happen out here. But we'll be signing guys up for all kinds of concerts. I don't know. I just got here, so I'm not even sure what tickets we have to sign up for. I'm figuring out as I go. But we are collecting the water. That is the important part of me being out here.
John Holmberg
Glorious. Yes, that's a fact. And you'll be out there for a little while longer, even though you were delayed by stupid, stupid stuff that happens around here quite a bit. Safeway, you got. You figured it out, because you're not an idiot. You figured it out and you found a way to get the truck that actually loads the water to the water site. So the promotion guys didn't load it up in an ultima and make a mess of things. Broadway and Rural. And you're out there with Volbeat and Day to Remember. Brett, we'll check in with you a little while.
Brett Vesely
Oh, all right.
John Holmberg
There you go.
Brett Vesely
Thanks, man.
John Holmberg
There you go. Brett Besley doing what he does best. Well, not what you can tell.
Brady
The. The weather's better, too.
John Holmberg
Oh, he's happy today. He didn't like standing out there at 100 degrees. He is not. This is a lot For Brett, this is truly what charity looks like. He's. He's braving misery to do this. He doesn't like being in that weather at all. He makes no bones about it. But you know what? He does it. It's just standing that swampy weather. But he's. You know what he's. And when he comes back, he's super happy. Like, he's killing it. Like, people like meeting Brett, hanging out with him and bringing him stuff. And I think that envelope idea he had was a good one. So he has to do all the work. It's great. So awesome job by Brett. That's why we like Brett. You know, in about a week and a half, we'll be celebrating five years of Brett. That's hard to believe, too. Five years of Brett being on this. That zoom by.
Brady
Didn't it been two days?
John Holmberg
Is that what it feels like to you?
Brady
Yeah, it feels like two days, 48 hours. That's how quick it's gone.
John Holmberg
I was gonna say it's gone quick, but that seems extreme. Not gonna lie to you.
Brady
Maybe a little.
John Holmberg
Yeah, it seems. It seems a lot longer than two days. I don't think we've packed in 48 hours of Brett in five years, man. It goes awesome. It does go quick. It's time for the Brady Report. It's brought to you by our friends at all Pro Shade Concepts. If you are looking to get like, Brett don't want to stand in the heat. You put some shade on that thing. The house that you have right now is probably missing shade somewhere. A patio you could be using more often. Something off the front of the house or the sides, maybe even one.
Brady
You don't have to deal with a base.
John Holmberg
Yeah, you don't deal with that stupid base that I'm dealing with. With the purple leaf umbrella I bought, you got the best options ever. Maybe even want to just kind of create a little space that you didn't know could be, you know, side of your house is getting no use. Put that up there. You can block your neighbor's view of your patio. All sorts of options, and they're all good. And the shade is incredible. Blocks up to 95% of the sun's UV rays with what they do and what the stuff they use, and it cuts down the dust and the wind and the temps drop up to 20 degrees. And we all love that. So get on board right now. I've heard from them, and evidently you guys have attacked all Pro Shade over the last few months, and it's a good idea they're great business. All pro. Shade.com. that's where you go. Brady reported.
Brady
Good Thursday morning to you, Phoenix. Hello, world.
John Holmberg
Hi.
Brady
Happy National Lottery Day. Oh, and National Tattoo Day.
John Holmberg
All right.
Brady
Google Trends did a map of the most searched tattoo designs in every state over the past 12 months. And it's pretty basic. Hearts, crosses, flowers and roses. I think they'd put the roses and the flowers, but it's different. I guess.
John Holmberg
Maybe flowers in bunches and roses are independent. Yeah.
Brady
Their own category. Rosebuds names are number one in 13 states. We're not in that.
John Holmberg
Not necessarily.
Brady
Arizona, along with nine other states. Hearts are the number one.
John Holmberg
We like hearts the most, by the way. Channel 3's Ian Schwartz has just texted and he said F word. I get up at 3:30 in the morning. I must be a negative one. Yeah. Ian, it's not good if you're waking up that early and you're on tv, they're hiding you.
Brady
He makes up for it with all the happy hours he goes to.
John Holmberg
Oh, boy. That's fact. Ian's good with his hands, so he makes up for it in a big way.
Brady
The Internet has also ranked ranking of the worst tattoo Trends ever. Number one, super long quotes.
John Holmberg
Terribly stupid. Number two, tribal bands.
Brady
That was number. Well, you got. Number three is the barbed wire.
John Holmberg
Oh.
Brady
Brand. But number two was bows on your calves or thighs.
John Holmberg
Bows like a. Oh, like ribbons.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
I was thinking like a bow and no arrow. I'm like, why bows? As in presents like on your calf?
Unknown
Yeah, because they're supposed to be like, as part of, like, hosiery that has the little bows on the back. Like women have them.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah. But I didn't. Never see.
Brady
Yeah. I don't know if I.
John Holmberg
Well, I've never hung out with meth addict before, so I guess that would be.
Unknown
We have. We've done the super bowl party.
John Holmberg
Any normal? Yeah, But I didn't pay attention to their bodies that way.
Brady
Number four was manual DIY stick and poke tattoos. Were you doing it yourself?
John Holmberg
The. Is there any normal woman out there with bows tattooed to her legs? Like she's just making an announcement to unwrap her legs and spread them open. That's essentially like, unwrap this. There's a present inside.
Unknown
This isn't exactly the same thing I was talking about, but it's close.
John Holmberg
That's bows on thighs.
Brady
Yep.
Unknown
And then those are ribbons looking like that.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Oh, most of them are. The poor bows are stacked in cellulite in all these pictures. Oh, God, this is disgusting. Don't untie that, she'll leak out.
Unknown
For every one of those you get.
John Holmberg
10 of the others. Hot one there and then. Yeah, the other ones are. The majority of them are unappealing.
Brady
Number five was Chinese characters.
John Holmberg
I told you. My friend drew a little action figure of a man. Got a cool Chinese character that was supposed to say courage or something on his stomach. And then a Chinese guy told him a couple years later that it was the logo in China for Coca Cola. The dude just carved him so he's got Coca Cola across his stomach.
Brady
Finally, tramp stamps.
John Holmberg
Doesn't matter what it is.
Brady
I thought that would have been higher, but.
John Holmberg
Well, they were a big deal for a while. And now people who love tramp stamps are 50. It's tough. Saturday Night Live did that thing a long time ago. And 50 years from now, the word cherry bomb above your ass. It's not going to look as good as you thought back when you had a waist. Oof. Holmberg's morning sickness. Hear the words you say sometimes. I mean, who talks like that? 98Upd Homburg's morning sickness.
Brady
Couple of basis fun facts. If you rolled 1000 dice, the odds of rolling exactly 500 even numbers and 500 odd numbers is only 2.5%.
John Holmberg
Seems about right.
Unknown
Thousand days.
John Holmberg
Chance is a. Chance is a very strange mathematical thing.
Brady
You might know this baseball fun fact.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
A pitcher named Mike Baxik senior pitched against Hank Aaron in the game where Aaron hit his record 755th home run. Backsick got him out. Another one of his teammates gave up the home run. Later in the game, 31 years later, his son Mike Bax Jr. Threw the pitch where Barry Bonds hit his record breaking 756th home run.
John Holmberg
Is that right? I didn't know that at all either. How about that? Wow. I wish I could have called that game. But I didn't. Cause it was the Giants and we all know they're a bunch of. Anyway, welcome back all tasty 93.
Brady
3 the average dog creates 274 pounds of poop a year.
John Holmberg
Average dog is what, 40 pounds? If we're going averages. Yeah.
Brady
I don't know.
John Holmberg
Well that's what I'm saying. If you're averaging between a Chihuahua at.
Brady
550 pound or 200 pound Mastiff, most.
John Holmberg
Of them are probably 40 or 50, 60 pounds. So probably get into that area and they create 270 pounds of poop a year.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
I don't know what Brady does.
Unknown
Come on now.
Brady
You gotta.
John Holmberg
If a 50 pound dog drops 270 pounds of poop a year.
Unknown
What sound does it make, John?
John Holmberg
Well, there's a specific sound we don't like. Let's not play what's that sound? That's not what we're doing. That's a mustard bottle. Sorry. Stop it.
Brady
Coco set a record last night on the walk.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
She went four times.
John Holmberg
She had a four drop.
Brady
Yeah.
Unknown
Did you bring four bags?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Okay, that was probably how many pounds do you think you've. And now the new you that says he holds it for hours, which I don't believe.
Unknown
The new you.
John Holmberg
That's a new Brady. I'm not talking about Coco anymore, buddy. We're on unit. The new you says you clamp it up and maybe go. Well, it's.
Brady
It's not necessarily clamping up. It's just going to once a day.
John Holmberg
Once you. Four times a day guy. At least.
Unknown
So let me ask you this. Do you think going from four times a day to once, is that better for you?
John Holmberg
Is it unexplained?
Brady
There's a little less volume of consumption so eating less.
John Holmberg
Oh yeah, yeah.
Unknown
I do. I don't. I don't eat near as much.
John Holmberg
Okay. Is it glps? Are you doing those? You find those made you more. No, they stop your digestion. Shut up.
Unknown
Really? I thought they made you just get rid of it.
John Holmberg
No, it sits in your belly longer, keeps you full.
Brady
I'm not doing a glp.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Unknown
He was mad about.
John Holmberg
No, I just.
Brady
No, no.
John Holmberg
Not against it. You do whatever you want.
Brady
But I have been taking the last month for my kidneys.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Yeah. You're doing some different Sega.
Unknown
Which one of that. I've seen that.
Brady
Which is supposed to help the kidney function, but it also can help. They say one of the effects is also helps appetite.
John Holmberg
It's like a suppressant.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
So you're not eating as much so you don't poop as well.
Brady
And I. And. But I had been doing that for a little while.
John Holmberg
Okay. What is the pounds you think that your peak a day?
Unknown
Yeah. Say 10 years ago.
John Holmberg
10 years ago. What do you think when you're four at least four times a day and then once in the middle of the night for no reason.
Brady
What is the.
John Holmberg
What do you think? What do you think the weight of each volume. I think you were dropping 10 pounds a day.
Brady
Generally the afternoon one was the heaviest payload.
Unknown
Cuz he had two lunches.
John Holmberg
He would sometimes have. I got a second lunch.
Brady
Was mention second lunch the biggest meal of the day.
John Holmberg
Is that right?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Cuz it Was multiple times lunch never had an end date.
Brady
It was just the appetite was the highest. Right around lunch. You could tell the end of the show. You could feel angry, start getting hangry a little bit.
John Holmberg
So let's say you dropped 10 pounds of food.
Brady
Well, we have the. And that's what I was trying to remember. We. They also did the fun fact or I did it not too long ago about that human. The average human lays so much a year. I think it was. I thought it was like a thousand pounds or something in there. Well, maybe they did the lifetime.
John Holmberg
If you're doing four and each one's a pound and a half.
Brady
No. Yeah, each one would be. No, probably pound less than a pound each one.
John Holmberg
If dogs. Yeah, Yeah. I don't know.
Unknown
That seems light even for me. That seems like.
Brady
I. I can tell you I've weighed myself multiple times.
John Holmberg
Oh, you don't. That has nothing to do with anything. You can't get on the scale before and after a poo.
Brady
Just out of curiosity.
John Holmberg
Like, man, that seems like no. 1460. Let's say two pounds.
Unknown
Two pounds a day.
John Holmberg
Two pounds a day.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Unknown
That's 700 pounds a year.
John Holmberg
721 pounds on my math in the leap year. That's terrifying.
Brady
Yeah, that's what I was saying. Like people there. So they're saying.
John Holmberg
So think of it.
Brady
When we were going at what, how much volume?
John Holmberg
Well, if I didn't do it right.
Unknown
366 days in a leap year.
John Holmberg
Yeah. 366 times 30. Well, if you did just go like two times equals times three pounds, we'll say a day.
Unknown
Okay. Yeah.
John Holmberg
You're 2196 pounds.
Brady
What?
Unknown
21. Oh yeah. I guess.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Now if he's saying what he's saying if like if you want to buy his lies, there's five times two times one pound a day.
Unknown
And they call Cal Raleigh the big.
John Holmberg
There's only 7:30. But if you're right about that and you're only doing a pound of volume a day and you do that twice a day, 365 days a year.
Unknown
Because I guarantee the input is more.
John Holmberg
Than £700 every year you crap the same size of what we first met Ralphie May at.
Brady
Ralphie May at.
John Holmberg
Ralphie was £720 when we first met him. And at the end of the year, if you collected it all, you could build a poop statue of Ralphie accurate to weight. That's not funny, Hallberg.
Brady
That's disgusting.
John Holmberg
So I'd said I'd step.
Brady
Look, chocolate Ralphie.
John Holmberg
Chocolate Ralphie. Which doesn't sound so bad at all. £730 of chocolate Ralphie. Put that in my belly.
Brady
A new poll asked people, would you leave your partner for a million dollars?
Unknown
Yes. And she should too.
John Holmberg
Millions low.
Unknown
Yeah, millions.
Brady
43 of the people tax free. 43 of Americans said they would.
John Holmberg
Is it tax free? Well, that's what divorce is.
Unknown
Yeah, exactly.
John Holmberg
You figure out how much it costs to leave the person. The wives are figuring out how much they're going to get in retirement, and the guys are figuring out how much they're going to lose.
Brady
Same poll. 40 of Americans said they'd accept 33 million.
John Holmberg
Whoa.
Brady
Even if it meant financially ruining someone.
John Holmberg
Else to leave their spouse.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
You give me $33 million. I.
Brady
And, and, and someone else. You're financially ruining someone totally unrelated. Someone. Yeah.
John Holmberg
So I get 33 million and I can leave. That's fair.
Brady
You know, someone's going to be.
Unknown
But then angel gets burned his wings.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
Yeah, yeah. All right.
John Holmberg
I'll just cut that dude to check for 4 million and be like, sorry about that. I didn't want to leave you in the lurch.
Brady
46% said they'd consider it, depending on who gets destroyed in the process.
John Holmberg
33 million. I'll be your hitman.
Brady
46% would enter a real life version of Squid Game for a shot at 33 million. Despite the game's 99.8% death rate, there's.
John Holmberg
Only one winner and he's the only survivor. Would you do Squid Games for. No, you wouldn't. The. The amount of money that. Well, because in Squid Games they're always like 46 billion. Then I'm like, how much is that in American money?
Unknown
I thought a couple of them got paid to leave. I know. Not. Not dead.
Brady
You're given your choice.
John Holmberg
No, no.
Brady
In the first one, I thought, well, they got.
John Holmberg
They have the option that the whole team can agree to keep going if you agree to keep going. Or you stop and they'll stop and split it if everybody agrees.
Brady
And even though 90 wanted to go.
John Holmberg
Yeah. They knew that there'd be a couple greedy ones.
Brady
48 would embarrass themselves on live TV for a million bucks.
John Holmberg
I do it every day.
Brady
But 13 would do it just for 5,000. 4% would do it for 500.
John Holmberg
500.
Unknown
Ruin their spouse.
John Holmberg
Hold on.
Brady
Humiliate themselves on that.
John Holmberg
Oh, for $500?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Well, no, that's. You're dead broke. You're already humiliating yourself by saying you'll take $500 to be a booze hound. Dancing booze hound.
Brady
41% would give up sex entirely for $1 million.
Unknown
Dumb.
John Holmberg
That's women. We only ask women that.
Brady
Broads.
John Holmberg
No, no, no. Man said. Yeah, that sounds great.
Brady
59% would give up technology and live off the grid for a million bucks.
John Holmberg
I. I'm. Yes, in a second. Oh, in a second.
Brady
15 would frame a friend for a crime they didn't commit for a million bucks.
John Holmberg
Yep. Wow.
Unknown
I would for a million.
John Holmberg
What's the crime?
Unknown
Yeah, that's what I'm.
John Holmberg
Petty theft. What are we getting a new petty. The murder?
Brady
No.
John Holmberg
They don't go away forever. Do they? Murder million dollars. Well, murder you, but I'm just saying. What's the crime? Depends on the crime. The price would move with the crime. If I've got a frame Brady for murder, that's like seven or eight million dollars. A million dollars. I'll. I'll frame Brady for a robbery or grand theft auto or something.
Brady
21% would pass on a million if it meant they'd lose access to social media.
John Holmberg
You. That's insane.
Brady
Crazy.
John Holmberg
To me. It's just not that important to me at all.
Brady
How about this one? 54% would reject a million dollars if their parents controlled the money.
John Holmberg
H. Interesting.
Brady
Give you a million bucks, but your parents will control that money.
John Holmberg
You have to ask? No. No, I wouldn't. I don't think I'd do that either. Yeah, I don't think I want my mom and dad in charge. You have to ask permission for that money. Homework's morning sickness. Hear the words you say sometimes? I mean, who talks like that? 98 Holmberg's Morning Sickness.
Brady
The last one was 38%. Would pause the deal if accepting it meant their enemy would also profit.
John Holmberg
Ah, my enemy.
Unknown
If you're making Pratt richer, why is.
John Holmberg
He automatically my enemy? He's been vanquished.
Unknown
I know.
John Holmberg
I don't know that I have an enemy right now. Well, I can say I don't. Yeah, I have enemy. I have enemy light. I don't have anybody that I can remove. Well, no, I'm just saying, like, if people are like, ah, I hope that person loses their job, you just don't care about them enough to like. Like, it's not like you don't want to see them, but you're not against them. If they move on and they have a decent life, you're fine. You just. It just don't like them. You. You're happy when you hear bad news about them, but you don't care if you hear bad news about it. The enemy is somebody you, like, actively want to hear bad news about and you celebrate it.
Brady
Every year. We get the list of the most popular baby names. It's pretty standard that the last 10 years, like Olivia, Liam, Emma, Noah, Hayden, Caden. All those. Yeah. Could this be added to the new.
John Holmberg
We have a new annoying, maybe a trend.
Brady
Yeah. A lady shared a text online where her older cousin told her she settled on a baby name for her girl. Vaseline. The woman sent back a photo of Vaseline and asked, like, this thing, but her mother said, I like that, but I wanna NIA on the end of it.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Vaselineia.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this didn't happen in Gilbert.
Brady
It doesn't say where it happened.
John Holmberg
Yeah, we all know where it happened. We're not allowed to say completely where it happened, but there was a lot of bass in the area. And somebody screamed World Star right after the lady sent the picture.
Brady
It was actually in the Hamptons.
John Holmberg
Was it really? No, it was on Fire Island. One of the gays named their kids Vaseline. Now that makes some sense. Why? Man.
Brady
