Brady
Hilarious.
John Holmberg
Rod tells me out of the blue at 7:30 on a Sunday, she's Going to somebody's house for bowl party. She better pack the pots and pans. She can get her ass out of you. Out of your mind. Spontaneous Sunday night party. All right, here. Watch your ass. There you go.
Brett Vesely
It's true.
John Holmberg
I'd be a little more tolerant than him. And I'd have. I'm somewhere in the middle of the two of you. You'd kill her. You have no questions at all. I'm somewhere in the middle. Fascinated by both of you, though. Not going to lie. It's time now for Brady to give you all the news that only Brady knows, unquestioned. And it's brought to you by the Brave Report. It's brought to you by our friends at All Pro Shade. Man, it's tough selling the All Pro Shade when everything's been so. This is a good summer. We had the miserable one last year. This is pretty nice. But you know what? It's still hot. And this weekend's gonna suck. Coming up this weekend, even when the.
Brady
Sun isn't out, the awning was still out. This weekend even better.
John Holmberg
70 degrees.
Brady
Unbelievable.
John Holmberg
It just makes everything better.
Brady
And then when it would start to.
John Holmberg
Sprinkle and she came.
Brady
No. Oh, you're just out there.
John Holmberg
But yeah, it didn't really get windy or nasty.
Brady
It sprinkled a couple of times over.
John Holmberg
The weekend but it didn't get like so bad that the thing would suck itself back up. No, that's great. It's cool. Yeah. It just makes everything better. Your backyard, your life, your house. Everything gets better. Allprochade.com that's where you go, put some shade in your life, Brady. Report it.
Brady
Good Monday morning to you, Phoenix. Hello world.
John Holmberg
Hi.
Brady
Happy National Junk Food Day. We need that.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, yeah.
John Holmberg
We need more of that.
Brady
Couple of basis. Fun facts. The harmonica player I'm Thin Lizzy's 1978 album Live and Dangerous was Huey Lewis.
John Holmberg
Really?
Brady
Oh, he was credited as the bluesy Huey Lewis. You can hear him on Baby Drives Me Crazy.
John Holmberg
I don't know anything.
Brady
I don't know that song particularly either.
John Holmberg
But that's that weird redneck rock I never really grabbed on to for some reason like that. Seems like that's Then Lizzie falls into that weird like I like. Yeah, they got a couple songs. Yeah, I don't know that one.
Brady
For the first five US presidential elections, only white men who own property could vote.
John Holmberg
Yeah, thanks for bringing that up. Make everybody uncomfortable for a minute. Thank you, Brady.
Brady
The world record for bench press was £364 in 1916. The current world record.
John Holmberg
Wow. 1916, it wasn't like they had a lifetime fitness on every corner.
Brady
That's pretty good press.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Most dudes weren't accessing. I bet you it was more than that. It just wasn't an official bench press. I bet you some of those. Those giant farm hands.
Brady
This is just the ones that could get a hold of.
John Holmberg
We're chucking up 4, 500 pounds without thinking about it.
Brady
Well, the current guy, Jimmy COBB, he benched 1401 pounds.
John Holmberg
Oh my God. In 2020, I would have guessed maybe 800.
Brett Vesely
1400.
Brady
1401.
John Holmberg
That's a half ton. That's more than. That's a. That's three quarters of a ton. Are you kidding me?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Wow. No, I'm not 1400 pounds. My tonal pushed me up to 190 once and I thought my back was gonna shoot out of my front. I don't like that. Repping out big weight. It hurts. Now there is keeping it together. And I don't need to hear from you guys, like, yeah, 191. I'm like, yeah, I know. I don't like it. So I don't do much of it. I try to stay toned. I don't try to.
Brady
Here's what's interesting though. They also said on the side the raw record without help of a bench shirt.
John Holmberg
I don't know what that means.
Brady
I'm not sure what that is. But it. It drops. It's 783 pounds. That was set by. In 2021 by Julius Maddox. So it must be some kind of shirt that helps you or.
John Holmberg
I don't. Is it shirt?
Brady
Is there shirt?
John Holmberg
Are you reading it right? Skirt shirt.
Brady
Bench shirt.
John Holmberg
Huh. I'm not sure what that is.
Brady
Oh, well, how much for one of them? Brett own a shirt? I want to throw some weight around today.
John Holmberg
I'm gonna grab my towel and get out of here.
Brady
7:30.
John Holmberg
John wants to go. John and Brett want a bench. We didn't expect this, but we're gonna go do it. I'll see you in an hour. I'm gonna do a daisy chain.
Brady
We're doing. We're gonna do a Bowflex jam.
John Holmberg
Holy Jesus. Pop on some. Oh, oh, I see. So there's a shirt that actually.
Brett Vesely
$278.
John Holmberg
And it helps you bench by keeping your muscles from exploding out of your super katana.
Brett Vesely
That's it. Still cheaper.
John Holmberg
That shirt will double.
Brady
Gave him another £600. Yeah, well, yeah. I wonder what that guy could do raw then. If that's the case, just Topless, without the super katana.
John Holmberg
What's it do? That's fascinating. I didn't know what a bench shirt was till today. All right. Everything about my life is just. I'm learning. I'm learning. For 72 solid hours on this day in history.
Brady
164 years ago, in 1861, Confederate troops defeated the Yanks. The Battle of Bull Run Creek.
John Holmberg
Jerks.
Brady
It was the first major battle of the Civil war. More than 50,000 men fought 10 hours where a lot of people just sat up on hilltop, watched it, and they had a picnic. And that picnic did not last too long after the.
John Holmberg
After the bloodshed.
Brady
152 years ago, on this day in 1873, Jesse James held up the Rock Island Express near Adair, Iowa. It was the his first train robbery. Only $6,000 was reported lost, but it was more like $65,000. The train company didn't want the public to know.
John Holmberg
Oh, wow, he got 65 grand.
Brady
That's got to be.
John Holmberg
I find out. So 65,000.
Brady
It's got to be 10 mil.
John Holmberg
How much is $65,000 in 18.
Brady
Yeah, maybe five mil. Five mil. I'll go five.
John Holmberg
Use chat GPT to just. It's trying to figure it out. It's doing the math. It's the equivalent of 1.73 whales.
Brady
Wow. That's retirement money back then.
John Holmberg
It's a pretty good draft. It's a pretty good haul.
Brady
The last one's 53 years ago, in 1972, George Carlin was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct and profanity at Summerfest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Seven dirty words using indecent language in front of wheelchair bound children. Which is why we loved him. Wow.
John Holmberg
Kids, this is what you do with your words. Safe and. And mother.
Brady
How about that?
John Holmberg
That's what you should call your God. Who put you in that chair? You just want to go home. If I was you, I would look straight up at God and say, you.
Brady
Interesting poll that asks people, do opposites attract? 40% of people in relationships say their partner isn't really their type, at least not on paper. 92% say there's at least one key personality trait that doesn't line up. So they ask people what are the most common. One person is always cold, the other is always hot.
John Holmberg
Check temperature. Stuff is. That's.
Brady
That's, you know, one's a saver, the other's a spender.
John Holmberg
That's a thing.
Brady
One's a planner, the other one likes to just go with the flow. Once an early bird, there's a night out.
John Holmberg
Now you're starting to get into the, like, character traits that actually matter. The whole cold thing. I can't help that.
Brady
You got a chatterbox and a quiet.
John Holmberg
One that's just a boring person and a fun person.
Brady
One's tidy, the other's a slob. One loves sound bowl parties, the other.
John Holmberg
One doesn't ever.1 Ice cream bowls episodes of Quarterback.
Brady
The poll also found that 50, 57 of us agree with the statement opposites attract. Thanks, Paul Abdul.
John Holmberg
Well, I mean, it isn't Paul Abdul didn't invent that, but that's how we remember MC Scat Cat. Yeah, he did. Yeah, he knew that was his phrase.
Brady
The TSA just announced that they're adding new dedicated family lanes at security checkpoints.
John Holmberg
Oh, get those kids out of line.
Brady
Airports have already done it. And they said there will be a few more, I mean, added later this year.
John Holmberg
They'll gradually be able to do a kid line at the airport. Next thing, my dream of a kid's free flight. You pay a little extra. Well, nothing worse than we went on JSX that time and somebody brought their rat kit on and it was crying. And I'm like, you paid for that? Like, you paid extra to tote him in. Like, just go on a regular plane.
Brady
Why are you at it?
John Holmberg
You didn't appreciate Spirit was already booked. Yeah, that's probably true.
Brady
The other thing they added was honor lanes for the military community.
John Holmberg
I like that.
Brady
Already available in 11 airports and it will expand.
John Holmberg
Oh, that's great.
Brady
Nationwide.
John Holmberg
Put my test there Thursday. Brady. I fly. Did I get the new id? No. I already paid for my ticket though, so I noticed that. If it's so imperative to fly with this new fake ID thing, why do they let me buy a ticket first? Holmberg's morning sickness. They don't ask me. Yeah. When I'm putting my money on the table, they're like, we don't care. What can I.
Brady
It'll be interesting to see how much you know. They'll say, well, you could be delayed a little bit going through a couple of. Not a jsx, additional ID check. Okay, but you're doing jsx, right?
John Holmberg
Yep. I'll plop it down. They'll be like, yep, like, sorry, don't have the star.
Brady
Okay.
John Holmberg
It's the same goddamn thing as before. You can see. I know.
Brady
You'll be fine.
John Holmberg
Yeah, you can go through my bags.
Brady
Speaking of Spirit Airlines.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Brady
There's a 16 year old kid, I was on a flight, he joked that he Had a bomb. Got arrested.
Brett Vesely
Dumbass.
Brady
All his friends went home. Where was that story I handed you?
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah, yeah. Is that this one?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Teen arrested for alleged bomb threat on plane. Mom says it's a joke. He's a good kid.
Brady
He's a good kid.
John Holmberg
Not that good a kid.
Brett Vesely
On Spirit.
John Holmberg
He's 16.
Brady
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
And his passengers are probably hoping for.
John Holmberg
It was at Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport. He blurted out, I have a bomb in my pocket. And the plane was about to take off, so they just stopped everything. I think that was real, Mom. 1300 Flight 1332. Broward County Sheriff hopped on board. How much? Think the fine was Brett.
Brett Vesely
Five grand.
John Holmberg
Did you see? I did, yes.
Brady
To say that I like that number. Five grand.
John Holmberg
Thousand dollars. Oh, mother. And just the offhand.
Brett Vesely
Well, it's spirit. I'm sorry, I forgot to. I forgot to do moms.
Brady
That didn't include the luggage.
John Holmberg
But in this particular case, the mom says it was an offhand comment. Never meant as a threat. Immature slang. He's a good kid.
Brady
So, mom, if you would have said that.
John Holmberg
But no, hold on. Does she not recognize we have to always have a high bar for this? Like we can't just start saying, oh, stop it.
Brett Vesely
Not with her little test.
John Holmberg
Because Al Qaeda will then start using 16 year old kids dressed like skate rats to tell people I got a bomb in my pocket. Oh, he's just a boy. Your kid is a dick. And you're a dick for allowing that and then defending it.
Brady
He's paying the thousand dollar fine. And son, this is why you don't joke about that. We told you, this is. Shut your mouth.
John Holmberg
This is why you don't joke. The beating your parents should be giving you instead of telling everybody. Oh, stop it. It was no big deal. It is too. Kurt.
Brett Vesely
Vestly would have left me at the airport. You got another flight. And pay for your own tab.
John Holmberg
My dad would have written a check for a thousand dollars just to be allowed to beat me that day. He would have given him a check.
Brady
How soon can I get.
John Holmberg
Yeah, when can I just put the pads on the walls? He's getting tossed all over the place. I don't want to kill him, but I'm going to come close. Parents, stop defending your dumb kids when they do stuff that you don't realize have repercussions if it's done by somebody other than your sweet little Talon. Talon says I got a bomb on a plane. You should be the one on the news going, I'm sorry everybody. I didn't think he Was that stupid? Evidently I'm raising a stupid person. Be embarrassed of your children more. She had the nerve to tell the he's a good boy. It was harmless. How does he pose a threat? I don't know. But if we stop paying attention to people that look like him. Some Radicalized little blonde 16 year old gets on with his palpalta board. Is that still a thing? And he hops on the plane, his Logan Ursia. And the next thing you know he's like, yeah, bomb, bomb, bombs. Like he's just a white boy. He's fine. And then the plane blows up.
Brett Vesely
The mom's just pissed off. She got. She was late to her bowl party.
Brady
Son of them.
John Holmberg
You know, I'm going to miss the bowl party. The whole reason we decided to fly out and I took your dumb ass because you didn't want to sit and watch your father stare at Netflix all.
Brady
Weekend with half a heart on.
John Holmberg
I understood it. That's why I'm leaving too. Brady asked Ronnie on the phone how many people were there? And she said, I don't know. Six. Six or so, I guess. Maybe.
Brady
I think seven.
John Holmberg
Was she not there?
Brady
She had her eyes closed the whole time. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
You have too, apparently.
John Holmberg
I need details, sister. How many people went to this? Seven. It was only seven. It was like 35. You're like, I gotta be like 30 people there. That'd be a crowd of seven is easy.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
To be able to fire that number off fast and if they're friends, then yeah. Seven of us. There were seven of us.
Brady
There was a baseball game happening in Silver Spring, Maryland. High school baseball summer league was happening. And the baseball field is next to a fire department. One kid hits a dinger and it hits one of the guys on the fire department's his personal car.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
The guy gets out there. The firefighter gets out there and cranks up the hose and starts hosing the field off.
John Holmberg
He gets the big boy hose out.
Brady
Yes. And they have to cancel the football game or the baseball game.
John Holmberg
So he parks at the home run fence.
Brady
Yeah, well, it's. The cars are in the parking lot.
John Holmberg
Which is what I'm saying. You know where the home. You know where the line is. You park by a baseball field. What do you should be aware of?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Flying objects.
Brady
So he's suspended and they're investigating.
John Holmberg
Hilarious though. I'd like to have seen that.
Brady
But they have. They show the video. The guy just it it pretty far out in the field.
John Holmberg
It's a good hit. A towering blast from Juan Soto Jr.
Brady
Evidently in the UK, two hours outside of north of London, there was a swing a thong.
John Holmberg
Swing a thong.
Brady
Swing a thumb.
John Holmberg
Oh, swing a thong. Swing a thong. He did.
Brady
They didn't have thongs on. Almost a thousand people attended.
John Holmberg
Yuck.
Brady
And it was a swinger bang fest. And the people in the village got a little upset because it was so loud. Moaning 24 7.
Brett Vesely
It's always those people. You don't.
John Holmberg
It's the gross.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, yeah.
Brady
So it was the. The between the moaning and the smell of dead fish. It was horse.
John Holmberg
Come on, man.
Brady
So I don't think that sounds like.
John Holmberg
It was a lot of moaning. There was a fish smell. Believe that it was sushi catered.
Brady
This is totes adorbs. The world's tiniest dad. There's a pig. Have you seen this? The tiniest pig in the world. 15 inches long. It just had a litter of piglets.
John Holmberg
It's a dad.
Brady
Yeah, well, the. It mated with female. That's bigger than. Yes, but not much bigger. Still a dwarf pig. This is the. There's the dad.
John Holmberg
Okay, well, this picture's up close and it looks like it's just in high grass. So I don't know how small this actually, I need a perspective.
Brady
I know. I need the.
John Holmberg
Like, I need it in a hand or something.
Brady
They're the piglets.
John Holmberg
I mean, don't get me wrong.
Brady
Guinness World record.
John Holmberg
Super aware of what 15 inches looks like. Trust me. Yeah, but mine doesn't have a snout. Sort of, I guess. They are adorable.
Brady
Dad's name is Pluto.
John Holmberg
They had a little litter. These little tiny. This is like. It's like Danny DeVito and he got it on with Venus and Rio Perlman. That's cute. Thanks for that adorable little picture, Brady. Two adorable baby pigs.
Brett Vesely
You can't tell.
John Holmberg
15 inch pigs.
Brady
Let's get to some Brady videos. The first one I call is a WWE power move. This is called the scissor Chomp.
John Holmberg
Turn your bowl.
Brett Vesely
This one. Oh, the balls are still on. Sorry.
John Holmberg
Kill the bulls, man.
Brett Vesely
Is that this one?
Brady
No. I don't know.
John Holmberg
Brett's excited about the one. That's going to be interracial. The first picture is up there. Looks like a very uncomfortable thing's about to be announced.
Brady
One before that.
Brett Vesely
This one.
John Holmberg
Oh, God, no. Oh, for Christ's sake. Where's Toledo?
Brett Vesely
Hang on. Try to send it again.
John Holmberg
Oh, we'll just do with what you got.
Brett Vesely
All right.
John Holmberg
What's that?
Brett Vesely
I'm not gonna play this one because I don't know where this is going.
John Holmberg
I don't know what that is.
Brady
I don't know how that is.
Brett Vesely
We'll go with this one for now, and I'll try to send the other one.
John Holmberg
Do you know this one?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Okay, what's this one?
Brady
This is a kid celebrating his birthday, and they're pushing his head in the birthday cake.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
You'll see the results.
John Holmberg
Okay. Oh, he put his face in there before they pushed. Oh, God.
Brett Vesely
Oh, it's a dong.
John Holmberg
The dong in the cave.
Brady
He is best.
John Holmberg
So they cooked a dong into the ca. Oh, now he's throwing the dong at people. Yeah, and it's right in his mouth. So he'd his mouth open the whole way.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Well, that couldn't have gone better for the jokesters, especially because he got so angry. And I love that they're under a grass hut. They don't have homes there, wherever that is. But they have dildos before they decided to build realistic houses with roofs.
Brady
That's the party hutch.
John Holmberg
No. No, it isn't. That's their house. I'm convinced of it. And even if that's your party hutch, it's still a grass roof, like Gilligan's Place.
Brady
Peeky.
John Holmberg
So they have detailed dicks before they have quality roofing.
Brady
Nice floor, though.
Brett Vesely
WWE's not coming up.
Brady
Okay. Bummer. All right, then. The last one is the wartman. Another one. Oh, come on. It's gonna itchy back.
John Holmberg
This dude's warts. Oh, he's making him dance. Oh, God, he looks like a. One of those shag rugs you run your hand across, only it's warts. And, oh, my God, his whole body is warts. And when he's itchy. Oh, and he's very limber, but he's scratching with it. They're making, like, little bubble moves.
Brady
His hair still kind of goes through the back.
John Holmberg
God damn it looks.
Brady
He's got a beard.
John Holmberg
Oh, I can watch all sorts of things. That gets me. Oh, turn that off.
Brett Vesely
The Ado concert.
John Holmberg
That's the. That's who's playing.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Ugh. Good God. By the way, Donovan, who pays attention to the show too closely, says they renamed that dwarf pig. They have a different. It's called Scott Haynes now. Yeah, it's our smallest listener. We have a dwarf pig listener. Scott Haynes. He's adorable, too. A little bigger than 15 inches, but not much. Holmberg's morning sickness. Holberg's morning sickness. 98 kupd Holmberg's morning sickness. Guy said you had the tiny pig story there. It reminded me. Did you get an Update on the guy whose wife last week emailed in about the tiny goat while he was out of town that he. No, we haven't. I haven't heard from yet. Maybe he'll email it this morning. And by the way, Brett just pulled up a picture of Bill Cosby holding the lady at the Coldplay concert that the memes.
Brady
Oh, man.
John Holmberg
The dude stepped away from his job. He can't be CEO of his company anymore. And you know what I thought about after? You know, And Friday night, you know, the day everybody found out about. You see what the Phillies did?
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah.
John Holmberg
Kiss cam. Which was hilarious. The fanatic was holding somebody, and there.
Brady
Was a couple of.
John Holmberg
That was so good.
Brady
They just won a couple of sporting events.
Brett Vesely
I think the D backs did it.
John Holmberg
Everybody got on this thing. These poor people were, yes. Having some sort of an affair, but in their minds, they're like, oh, my God, that was so embarrassing. That's crazy, right? We got nabbed at the Coldplay show. They had no idea what was gonna happen. 18 hours later, even less than that, their whole livestock.
Brady
If I didn't flinch, none of this would have happened.
John Holmberg
I started to feel so sorry for them.
Brady
You just would have stood there for a second.
John Holmberg
I get it. They're bad. But we treated Luigi Mangioni better than we're doing these two. Like, they had a sexual affair. You don't know their story. Maybe the wife's okay with it.
Brady
Well, we heard all sorts of different stories.
John Holmberg
Right? You don't know.
Brady
Oh, you know what? She's married.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Or whatever. I don't know.
John Holmberg
But we don't know their story.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Horrible. And they're getting treated like they killed people. And it's. It's so sad. At a certain point, you're like, I get it.
Brady
Also responsible for some great comments.
John Holmberg
There's where I had to. There's where I had to find my moral line. I'm like, these poor people. But this is really funny. I don't know what to lean on here, do you?
Brady
I mean, look at it. Like, if it happened to you, oh, you would understand.
John Holmberg
Dude, suicidal.
Brady
You got to make these.
John Holmberg
I guarantee you he's suicidal. He's not making jokes. That dude went home.
Brady
But I'm saying, if TMZ's top story. You were that guy. If I'm here, you'd be the same way.
John Holmberg
You'd kill you. You'd be on watch, I guarantee. Yeah, the dudes lost everything. And again, his own doing. But this is more than just getting caught doing something dumb. This Is the world going, oh, I can't imagine the weight that is living on top of him. Plenty of people.
Brett Vesely
Did you see the full video with Chris Martin talking about it?
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah.
Brett Vesely
He's just like, what are they having?
John Holmberg
Yeah. Or they're very shy.
Brady
And now they're evidently at the Coldplay concerts.
John Holmberg
Give a little warning. Yeah, give a warning. You might be on the screen.
Brett Vesely
How many streams of Coldplay get this weekend after all this?
John Holmberg
Oh, the one I love the most was the Mahomes hugging the referee.
Brady
Oh, yeah.
John Holmberg
And they have one with SGA hugging a ref. And I mean these, these.
Brett Vesely
There was one with from Airplane where Otto's grabbing Julie Haggerty's cans and stuff.
John Holmberg
It is above and beyond a punishment that's deserved. They deserve to be beaten down by their spouses, maybe their jobs, for sure. But we have no right in there. But they gave it to us. So we took.
Brady

John Holmberg
I think this looks like a fella dressed as a woman. And it's relatively large. You're abandoned at birth. You're a person of color in America. You are a queer person in a Mormon community. Are there any other struggles you faced in life? And the guest has no arms and legs. The person being interviewed has no arms and legs. But their victimization is all about being a trans gay.
Brett Vesely

Brady
I just noticed the kid. She's in the kitchen. And the cat.
John Holmberg
Oh, she's got to. Oh, there's a cat in the kitchen. That's his milk. Cats love milky, so goto would go and lap that up. Oh, boy, the society.
Brett Vesely
Look at this beast.
John Holmberg
Oh, this is a fat lady. That's AI that there will be a lot of sp. Her fat looks like another person's legs over her legs while her gut rests on those legs. Her pants, her shorts are a 5X. So she gets dressed mostly fit. No, they don't.

Completely nasty ass. Giant. Step by step procedure. She is big. Oh, there she's got.
Brady

They're violet color, which is unfortunate because it reminds me of the girl in Willy Wonka that licked the wallpaper.
Brady
It is very.
John Holmberg
She's still topless. Okay, that's disgusting.
Brett Vesely
And we'll end with a little chicken and mushroom soup.
John Holmberg
Oh, no. All right, we're in the kitchen.
Brett Vesely
We're gonna make the most delicious, comforting.
John Holmberg
Chicken and mushroom soup. Okay. Oh, then it just cuts to a lady throwing up. Into a guy's mouth to the next level. Cozy, deep flavor. Amazing. You thought I was just gonna make chicken soup, didn't you? Oh, all right. Nobody likes you. Can we get back to the rosebuds? I can't take this vomit thing, all right?
Brett Vesely
