Honestly? What is the sound of one kidney clapping? We could be Def Leppard with one arm tied behind our backs. Come on. Good. I'm really looking forward to this because Thriller has had so many drop everything moments during the. While we're off mic, he said three jokes that nobody knew what he was even talking about. Why he got. Jim Rome was divorced a second ago. We don't know what kind of phenomenal that was. The third thing he did. Kind of weird fever J's got. I hope Jim Rome gets divorced someday because he's available level. I'm going there to kill. What? No, but he's trying to fix it after the fact. There is a working guy in the parking lot limping him around with some sort of. Looks like a bouquet of roses and a shotgun. And he is asking where my wife is and says he wants to phone home. What is up with that? Dave in San Diego. Dave in San Diego. What do you think of my impending doom? It's out in the parking lot. It calls itself Corey Mike at H town. All right, let's get this done. It's your Guadalupe squares with Caliento and the Squar brothers and a whole bunch of surprises. Here's your host of said squares, Mr. Thriller wall still. Thank you, chancellor. Let's begin. Top left square, we have Randy and Jay Sklar joining us starting off. Hey, it's good to be here. It's going to be here. Great to be here. The weather's nice. Last night it rained, but it was a dry rain. A dry rain. I'll take it. Well done. Thank you. Very straightforward. Over now, the top middle square, we have John Sklar Riley. Hey, what's going on? What's going on? We just Scar brothers. Pretty sure we just became scar brothers. That's pretty awesome. What just happened? She br. She's awesome. We could do this. Like, let's go in the garage and be scar brothers there. I think that's really started to turn into Rome again. I know. Let's get a divorce. Let's get a divorce. Then we begin to. We can become identical. Right now we're fraternal, but we'll get to identical. And hey, last night there was a rain, but it was a dry rain. We didn't hear that one before. Good joke, John. Jason C. Riley, that was fantastic. Did you touch my joke set? I'm sorry, I did not ch. Touch your jokes. That I do not. Sorry about that. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. All right, now we go to the top right square. We have Randy and Jason Trump joining us. Exactly right. That's great. Probably it's a great square of Trump. Trump is always good. We've added in the comedy aspect. It's a beautiful, beautiful. One of the biggest, beautiful squares. Probably the best square. And there's a lot of great squares. There's a good squares on all sides. There's great squares. Both squares, Both sides, both sides. Very quality square. I was thinking, I had it as a great idea. I had a great idea. I woke up and I said, let's make it the Guadalupe circles. Let's do a circle. We made it the Guadalupe circle, and then we. We deported it ever. You know what? That's not a bad idea, too, to deport Dora the Explorer and let her explore Alligator Alcatraz. I think that's a good idea. Nice. In that background. These squares are so great. I think they should be on the White House lawn July 4th of next year. Tremendous idea. Very good. And Melania, she's going to sue people. Now you've saw that. Is she going to fight on the 250? We're going to have her fighting. She's going to fight. We're going to get a Mexican and we're going to get her in the octagon. And we're of Melania, and the loser has to go home. The Guadalupe Octagon, my favorite square. Octagon. The number one quadrilateral. Double quadrilateral. So many angles. So many angles. Sleepy Joe, trying to figure out what a quadrilateral. I think he thinks he takes those to quad lateral. Folks. Come on. What are we doing? The guy, Sleepy Joe. Hey, come on. He's wandered into the square. We don't even know why. You know what else is a square? What? Hunter's laptop. Like a square. Rectangular. Why you got to do that? Come on over now to the Minimalist. We have the Neesons joining us. That's right. Randy and Jason Nissom have a very specific set of Squares. Skills that make it a nightmare for the rest of you. For the circles, like, here's the problem. Yeah. See, Randy and Jason, we have a bonus. That's who we are within these Clarks. We've had this act for over 30 years. Maybe 40. Remember our show on ESPN3 or 4 or whatever it was at the time? The Ocho? The even cheaper seats. Even cheaper seats. The cheapest seats. That's right, the blazers. Cheap. But we were in Twinsburg, Ohio, and we saw you guys doing some material and we noticed that it was very similar to ours. And in that moment, we knew we had to take. Our material had been taken. Don't dump us on the jokes. They've done it again. The pauses are too long. Well, we learned them from Jim Rome, who, by the way, you're just getting a divorce. Phenomenal. Is that true? Nominal. Arugula over. Now to the middle square. We have Brady's kidneys. How are you two doing? Not so good, man. Hey, Lefty. I gotta get out of here, brother. I got the weight of world on my back here.

Chase Stew. Get this thing out of here. If you squeeze me, barbecue sauce comes out. I am a disaster. Hot sauce. I still miss the Brady hot sauce. Well, that's where it comes from. It comes from your kidneys. Your kidney produces all the hot sauce for the Brady. That's why I'm dying, man. I've been over yet. That's why he's not produced any. A long time squeezing me like a hunt's ketchup packet and I am dry, baby. Call her Simone. She's full of b. Over. Now the middle right square. You have Kristoff Waltz and Jason joining us here.

No, it's fine. Go with the flow. Whatever. Over now to the bottom middle square, Jason and Randy Freeman. Well, people thought maybe we could have a square of Freeman's, but we decided to have the square Freeman's. It was the way it had to be. We had climbed through 500 yards of the 5th ear slop. I can't even imagine. Just to be together again. Come out smelling like a sklar, brother. Let's just stop there. Normally, there's music behind us, but there's no room for any more people in here with the wrong music. It doesn't quite have the same feel. Circus music Behind Morgan Freeman is touch the Line.

In fact, it's the fourth different sign. They've got a New realtor all the time. I do know this though. They wouldn't be dealing with all this stress if they'd just called TVs Doug Hopkins because he's more than a guy buying your house. He makes an offer for your house, cash. As is, you don't have to do anything. The deal is over. So all you gotta do is start the process online@doug hopkins.com or sing. We're here with Byron from MMP Guns.

Absolutely right. 100. 110%. At least. At least. Maybe more. Maybe more. 115. Something like that. 115.75. I'll go with that. That's about right. All right. So what was the question again? Do they have a higher chance of drug and alcohol addiction? Do they? Yes or no? I thought those were true or false questions. All right. True or false. But what we're saying is they do. Do you agree? Have you done this before? Brady has boats and hosts. He's going to travel around from port to port for his dialysis machine. I think that'd be pretty great idea. It's gonna have to do that. Yeah. Let's say. Let's just say true. I don't even remember what the question is. I just think this true's a great word. All right, let's go true then. Now, Shelby, do you agree or disagree? Well, I love drugs and I'm super smart, so I'm gonna agree. Correct. I swear. Phenomenal. Yeah, baby. Shelby is no drugs. Extra word. Over and out of Cory. Make your selection. I'll do Brady secret square. Secret square. Who could give it a whirl? David. Correct. How did he do that? Nobody improvises. That was just his way of saying Brady, stop improvising.

I think we are gonna call them the Washington Bats. That's right. We're gonna change the name to the Washington bats because that's what America wants. I think America, the people. The people are spoken and they're saying false fast. Don't ask a keel out of bats. Not in this country. Not anymore. Biden might have, but we did not. So, Shelby, they're saying false. Do you agree or disagree is the question. Do bats have something to do with tequila? Yes. Remember when she said she was smart and on drugs? I believe half of them. They do. For pollination. They do for the penis. Okay, so you are disagreeing and therefore you get the square. That's correct, smart lady. We did that on purpose. We did it on purpose. She's a very smart lady.

Guests: Frank Caliendo, The Sklar Brothers (Randy and Jason), plus regulars Brady Bogen, Bret Vesely, Dick Toledo
Notable Segment: Guad Squares (HMS’s comedic take on Hollywood Squares with celebrity impressions)
This episode of "Holmberg’s Morning Sickness" featured a special comedy round of "Guadalupe Squares," the show’s irreverent spin on Hollywood Squares. The guest roster was stacked with stand-up talent, including impression master Frank Caliendo and comedy duo, The Sklar Brothers. Within a mayhem-filled hour, the squares were packed with impressions, meta-commentary on comedy, and surreal alter-ego conversations. The live comedy energy was ever-present, leading to a fast-paced, joke-heavy episode that truly showcased the improv skills of all involved.
Each square features a comedian (or multiple in character), leading to outrageous interactions:
Contestants: Shelby and Corey
[23:00] Intelligence and Addiction Question
[24:30] Bats and Tequila (Trump square)
[27:20] Genghis Khan, CO2, and The Sklars
| Time | Segment / Highlight | |---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 05:00 | Holmberg intro & setup of the special guest lineup | | 07:00 | Sklars in character as themselves and as John C. Reilly | | 09:15 | Caliendo’s Trump square – political satire & comic mayhem | | 13:00 | Brady’s kidney bit: health crisis humor | | 14:10 | Kristoff Waltz impression, NBA/Nazi riff | | 16:10 | “Secret Square” (David Koresh parody) | | 18:13 | Sklar Brothers do Morgan Freeman/Dufresne impression | | 19:10 | Tripp Reeb (station boss) square, “Drip Reeb” in radio’s ’70s heyday | | 23:00 | First gameplay Q: Intelligence and addiction (contestants answer) | | 24:30 | Trump square – bats and tequila question, audience correction/banter | | 27:20 | Genghis Khan and removed CO2 (Sklar banter, contestant goofs) | | 29:00+ | Endgame chaos, plug for Desert Ridge Improv, more inside jokes |
Bottom Line:
If you love rapid-fire, layered improv comedy, celebrity impressions, and a little inside radio-radio chaos, this episode is a tour de force. The Sklars and Frank Caliendo take HMS’s comedic game show to new heights (and depths), ensuring every square is packed with something bizarre, topical, or just plain dumb—and the episode luxuriates in that mayhem.
