[John Holmberg]

Terry. Terry, you drive. Don't get out of the car. Terry Brady, entertain us. Yeah, that's right. It's time for Brady to do the entertainment drill. It brought to bear [e-mail] the home of tactical black self defense training. And you can get up there and learn how to be a sheepdog. Stop being a sheep. We saw that video. I talked about it this morning. Best defense in the world is leaving. Being a man means staying alive for the people you care about afterwards. Getting involved in that scuffle just to prove your manliness and then getting the crap kicked out of you and Fox News won't stop talking about it. Is not manly. It's stupid. Best self defense is Nike defense de escalation. They teach you that before they teach you any fighting. It's awesome. And then you get in great shape while you're there. React defense.com that's where you go. It's the home of tactical black Brady entertainment.

[Brady]

Adam Carolla was on a podcast yesterday and he talked about going on Ellen show in 2012 and how terrified her staff was.

[John Holmberg]

It's almost as if like. It's like, look. Hey Frank, how are you? It's almost as if there Were, I don't know, a podcast with my name on it. I wasn't on any podcast. Brady was on my own podcast. And I used to work for a guy named Tripp Reeb. Now, a lot of people know Tripp Reap. You know, Frank, you know Tripp. I do. What do you think of Tripp? Re.

[Frank Caliendo]

Great guy.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, that's what you think. And then you work for him. Anyway. I was the highest paid, low level employee in Los Angeles. What was the question? I'll go on for hours.

[Brady]

He basically talked about in Ellen is.

[John Holmberg]

A horrible person, terrible lady, horrible woman.

[Brady]

He goes, you could tell by the way the staff was running around terrified.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. And he's just now saying it, though.

[Brady]

No, he's just backing it up because they somehow they got on the topic and they were talking about all these stories in the past and saying Ellen's a mean person. But I was like, oh, she is.

[Frank Caliendo]

I'd heard stories about Ellen all the way back to her doing stand up.

[John Holmberg]

Being mean to clown.

[Frank Caliendo]

She was always just rough on everybody all the time.

[John Holmberg]

I'll say this, though. And I've, I've, I. But I've defended Ellen on this because her name's on that show.

[Frank Caliendo]

I agree.

[John Holmberg]

And, and if you're not getting it done, the person whose name's on the show has to step up and say, hey, you can, you can think I'm a dick or whatever. I'm the one in the end who gets all the credit and all the blame.

[Frank Caliendo]

There were people at Mad TV that I was told were really tough on the staff and whatever. And so I got there. No, no, no. They're just defending their own product. They're not just going with the flow like me and accepting all these terrible ideas.

[John Holmberg]

Exactly.

[Frank Caliendo]

They fight themselves a lot of the time. So I agree. There is a lot. There's Ellen's dream.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. She has her own dog. She did this to get that show. And she's gonna, basically.

[Frank Caliendo]

But there is a. There is a thing where I think people cross a line too far. And maybe she's seen it here and.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, yeah, you quiet down. I was talking. No, the men, the men are having a conversation right now. Frank, please. Me, Terry. No, I always look at that. There is a line to cross. But also, you know, if you, if you worked there and you stayed there and then after the fact, you bitched, you know, you, you know what you're in, you know what you're into. And some people are jerks. And you might work for a jerk.

[Brady]

Sometimes, but he Said he talked to one of the former writers who said Ellen is the worst person. Not the worst person. I worked for the worst person I've ever met.

[John Holmberg]

Because we had Jeff from Curb youb Enthusiasm. Why am I blanking on?

[Frank Caliendo]

Garland.

[Brady]

Garland.

[John Holmberg]

And he evidently said, you know, he was a horrible person for the longest time and he didn't realize how he was rubbing everybody the wrong way. So he's recently had to change that.

[Frank Caliendo]

Another terrible person, Rosie o'. Donnell. Terrible on the show.

[John Holmberg]

Irish Rosie. Yeah.

[Frank Caliendo]

Bad person. One of the worst people I have ever seen.

[John Holmberg]

I remember she used to shoot the koozies. She shoots. You know what those were made of? Rosy pubes. She fired her pubes at her.

[Brady]

She's tight weeds.

[John Holmberg]

Rosie Cozy cousins.

[Frank Caliendo]

Take Ellen to Jenners. You take Ellen to Jenner's and pump her up. Pump Dig Dug Dug.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, no.

[Frank Caliendo]

Fire breathing dragon. Guess what flame retardant sleeve that could have get me.

[John Holmberg]

He remembers Dig Dug down to the sleeve. That was what he's saying. And Trump is right is that Rosie is just the dig dug blown up version of Ellen. But when you're that when you're like if you had the Frank Caliendo show and you saw your staff was not getting things done and they're crushing your dream, you're probably going to step up.

[Frank Caliendo]

And say, I said nothing and got canceled.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, you did nothing and people walked all over.

[Frank Caliendo]

You have to assert yourself, defend your body. But I think sometimes people just get stuck in. It's like when I always talk about a car salesman. You ever go to dinner with a car salesman and they start doing deals to pass the butter. It's just like, just pass the butter. But they can't get out of that mode. And I think people defending themselves constantly just.

[John Holmberg]

You said that to me years ago and I still use that today. It's like you fall into the mode of your job and it would be as if a Carson was like, can you pass the salt? And he goes, tell me what you're gonna give me. What are we gonna do for the salt? And you can't turn that switch off.

[Frank Caliendo]

You see it all the time whenever you go to like dinner with somebody.

[John Holmberg]

In a different dinner. Sorry, Dig Dug.

[Frank Caliendo]

Oh, that's tremendous. It's very good. Look at him. He's digging and dugging and there's a dragon. He's gonna shoot the arrow. Shoot the arrow at him. I loved. And what's gonna come out of that? Dig Dug probably just dropped a ro. Like we are dropping rocks.

[Terry]

Can I do.

[John Holmberg]

I'm gonna make you do do a John Madden calling Dig dug.

[Terry]

I mean, I mean, take a look. You're digging a hole and then you're pumping guys up. I mean, and they just got a little balloon guy. Boom, he's gone. And then you find another balloon guy. Boom, he's gone. I mean, now you're gonna go invade him underneath a rock to see if he get. So you gotta get close, open it up.

[John Holmberg]

Boom.

[Terry]

That's another dragon. People think dragons didn't exist. They did. Dig dug just got to him before you saw it. John holmberg's morning sickness. The 98 kupd.

[John Holmberg]

I mean, football season is coming.

[Terry]

I mean, it is. It's a Hall of Fame game. That defense built a wall. You know, winter is coming, football season is coming. And you got the other side of the wall. There's a whole different world.

[John Holmberg]

So you got the Targaryens, you got the Maddens.

[Terry]

Yeah, yeah.

[John Holmberg]

You got the snow or the. What are they. What would that. What are the families again? Oh, I love.

[Terry]

I think there were the.

[John Holmberg]

I just want to hear John break them all down.

[Terry]

Yeah, I mean, that's a great. That we'll do that next time.

[John Holmberg]

We should plan something, I think.

[Terry]

And there's the. There was the Italian family. I don't remember.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, yeah. Well, of course you guys remember that. There was Frank, Enrico and Terry.

[Terry]

Only the names have been changed here.

[John Holmberg]

Lannisters. The Lannisters.

[Terry]

Yeah, Terry and Lannister. I mean, that Terry Lannister.

[John Holmberg]

T land they call it.

[Terry]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

I mean, Terry, wasn't that a landline or that was some sort of computer thing?

[Terry]

The t land a T1 line. That's a T1 line. We had those, you know, this kind of Internet stuff.

[John Holmberg]

Dig dug started those.

[Terry]

Dig dug. Doug, he used to dig them to.

[John Holmberg]

Dig the holes, get rid of the dragon. So we could have fiber optics.

[Terry]

Yeah. And I think that was about the time that, you know, that it all began right there.

[John Holmberg]

I think that is the beginning of time.

[Terry]

A lot of people say, hey, what happened to dragons? And I said, they're there. You just gotta look. You gotta look far. Far enough for em.

[John Holmberg]

Find a dig dug. So you're saying Adam from A.D. he possibly was. Was Dig duck. Because that was the beginning. He had to get rid of it.

[Terry]

Let me put that together. Yeah, I mean, look, I never thought about it because he was.

[John Holmberg]

They said that was where it all began, so.

[Terry]

But there's different beginnings for different people. I mean, different people look at things differently. Yeah. And.

[Brady]

And are the rocks and dig dug. Is that dragon glass?

[Terry]

Oh, oh, yeah. That is Dragon glass. Yeah. That's a great call there. I mean, a lot of people, you know, we weren't thinking about that, but when you put that together, if you can, it takes millions of years for that. For those boulders to become dragonglass. And when they drop on a dragon, Boom.

[John Holmberg]

Can I ask, John, why would you need dragonglass when you got yourself a Dig Dug?

[Terry]

Yeah. Because there's only one Dig Dug. There's only one Dig Dug. If there were just like, there was only one Brett Favre. That's right. If you got one Dig Dug. Dig Dug was the Brett Favre of underground video gameplay. That is true. Look at. I mean, he had a cannon. Yeah, he did an arrow cannon.

[John Holmberg]

He's a gunslinger.

[Terry]

Gunslinger. Just. Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

All right.

[Terry]

Didn't really look. Know what. How to read the defense, but it didn't matter.

[John Holmberg]

He just fired.

[Terry]

There's a lot of strategy in Dig Duck. Brett Favre would use none of it.

[John Holmberg]

He's diagonal. Well, thank you. That's a great breakdown of all things.

[Terry]

Oh, the other fan the Carly owns that was.

[John Holmberg]

They were not in it.

[Terry]

That's a meatball for us all.

[John Holmberg]

I don't think they were actually in that.

[Terry]

Yeah, I think they were.

[John Holmberg]

I'm sorry, I got nothing. Go ahead.

[Terry]

No, that's okay. I like that music. You play that while you got a spoon and a fork and you're twisting spaghetti.

[John Holmberg]

That's right.

[Terry]

Most people don't use the spoon. You use a spoon. Boom. I mean, that's a tight. That's a tight spiral, right?

[John Holmberg]

Real tight.

[Terry]

Brady, keep entertaining.

[John Holmberg]

Come on, Brady. Go.

[Brady]

There's in Happy Gilmore.

[John Holmberg]

Thriller. It's here. All right, go ahead. Sorry.

[Brady]

There's a rumor in Happy Gilmore 2 that Taylor Swift was in it.

[Terry]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Brady]

In the bear scene, she played Happy Gilmore when Travis.

[John Holmberg]

She was the Adam Sandler of the movie.

[Brady]

But she wasn't. Adam said. No, she wasn't.

[John Holmberg]

She was not in the bear suit.

[Frank Caliendo]

Yeah, no, no, she was not in the bear suit. She was in a bunny suit. And Travis. Kelsey, spoiler alert.

[John Holmberg]

She was dressed as bad bunny. Yeah, but she was dressed.

[Frank Caliendo]

And they were in the cotton patch. Here comes Peter Cottontail.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Cotton pads shooter.

[Frank Caliendo]

Someone asked.

[John Holmberg]

You said that movie was okay.

[Brett]

I like.

[Frank Caliendo]

I like the beginning. Horrible fun with it.

[John Holmberg]

No, no, no. Stop it. Stop it. Not one joke was written. It was nut kicks and fights. It was slapstick comedy. It might as well have been black and white and Buster Keaton.

[Frank Caliendo]

It might as well have been my act.

[John Holmberg]

It might as well been Frank's act. I didn't laugh once.

[Frank Caliendo]

Maybe my favorite part was Nick Swardson in black and white walking in with his hairdo.

[John Holmberg]

The only amusing part was the sepia tone. And then they had to go to the. He had a shoe shoved in his ass. And I'm like, jesus, did they have any jokes? Are there any clever moments in this good one? No, it wasn't Johnny the Sandman so bad getting it wrecked. I was getting upset at the whole thing.

[Frank Caliendo]

Don't get mad.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. I couldn't help it.

[Frank Caliendo]

Don't get mad.

[John Holmberg]

You wanted empathy.

[Frank Caliendo]

We only had 50 million streams yesterday.

[John Holmberg]

I know. And that's where I'm more. Maybe you're not in touch with entertainment. You know what? That's scary because that's exactly how I feel. A poopy. Exactly. A poopy. Poopy. And people download. Click, click, click, click, click. Oh, yeah.

[Frank Caliendo]

That just got another 100,000 streams.

[John Holmberg]

And the shoe will be shoved up a butt and America will download. It's crazy. I hate it. I hate it. I hate that. That. I hate people like you trying so hard and not succeeding at all. And then he does this with poopies. And it's okay to use low brow humor, but write a joke.

[Frank Caliendo]

Yeah. Johnny, how come. How come you never go low?

[John Holmberg]

I never go low. It's always highbrow.

[Terry]

Hey.

[John Holmberg]

Hey, man. Eyebrow run of Classy Frick.

[Brady]

The big movie this week in the Naked Gun.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, it's on. Do you think Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are really a couple? I hope so.

[Terry]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

I do. They do. I actually want to see that. And do you think that's.

[Terry]

I don't know who you are.

[John Holmberg]

Promotion. I don't know what you want. That's right. Racky hands.

[Brady]

When they were doing the junkets and Liam was talking about Taken.

[John Holmberg]

I'm sorry, we can't hear you. We're motorboating.

[Terry]

Pamela.

[Brady]

I've got a particular set of skills. He wanted that out of it.

[John Holmberg]

I couldn't hear you. I was using thighs as earmuffs. That's my new movie. Motorboat. Yeah. I will find you and I will take you. I have found you. Barbed wire 2. Who'd have ever guessed that 35 years ago, Schindler's List and barbed wire would be a thing. Oscar Schindler bangs barbed wire. Do you think I should shave my eyebrows as well? It might work. She does have a propensity for guys with huge dorks. And I have that. I look like Tommy Lee's.

[Brady]

He's kind of.

[John Holmberg]

I have Tommy Lee's dick hanging from my thighs. No, I just am it. No, I'm saying I have. I am the entire.

[Brett]

Am.

[John Holmberg]

The entity that is. Yes. We joined fists and said Wonder Twin powers activate. Created animated Tommy Lee's dick with personality and face. No, my dick has a dick bigger than Tommy Lee's. That's how big it is. It's like putting Mount Rushmore on Mount Rushmore. Oh, man. I don't know. It still seems like a. Like, if you're 70, that's still a kill Pam Anderson. Crushing it. No, kill it. Still not bad either, by the way. It's not what it was, but I closed my eyes and I know.

[Brady]

Helen Murin.

[John Holmberg]

No, that's still a good one. Just, you know, it's a thing. I wonder how much of it is promotional. Like they're just to get people to talk.

[Frank Caliendo]

I feel like a lot of it is.

[John Holmberg]

I think so, too. Will they stay together after the movie flops? Do you want to see it? I want to see it. Out of curiosity, because I love the Naked Gun movies.

[Frank Caliendo]

I think the timings wrong. Everything I've seen, the timings wrong.

[John Holmberg]

Well, they keep moving.

[Terry]

No, no, no.

[Frank Caliendo]

The timing of the jokes.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

[Frank Caliendo]

When you showed me Life's Too Short.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, my God.

[Frank Caliendo]

With Liam Neeson on. With Warwick Davis.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Frank Caliendo]

That's how that movie needed to be. Where he's completely serious.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. The whole time trying to be funny.

[Frank Caliendo]

Yes.

[John Holmberg]

Like aware that he's not that funny, but he's doing funny lines. Would be the Frank Drebin. Perfect.

[Terry]

Yeah.

[John Holmberg]

I don't know what this is.

[Frank Caliendo]

And it was. It needs to have that camera moving and awkward looks.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Frank Caliendo]

It's got to be that. I didn't.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. I didn't see in the previews and all the clips I've seen anything more than just like a. We're going to swing at every pitch. Every line's going to be just Seth McFarland. It's. Every line's going to be a swing. And some will go and some won't. I don't know. But it was supposed to come out in June. Oh, really? Which always makes me worry for a movie that's like, let's not. Let's put it out on a weekend.

[Brady]

Push it back.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Anyway. All right. Frank's here for the squares. How about that? Ah, no. You know what? Thrillers. Here. I am, too. Thriller will host the Squares. We need two people to play the squares. 585 9, 800. That's the phone number. We need a girl. We need A boy. What are we giving away? I don't know. All right, Something good. We'll figure it out. Brett will look it up. We got maybe even shine down this week.

[Frank Caliendo]

I could throw. I could throw a pair of tickets to the Desert Ridge.

[John Holmberg]

That's right. And Frank's tickets are on the line as well. For winner or loser? You choose.

[Frank Caliendo]

August 22nd, 23rd. Not this weekend.

[John Holmberg]
