Frank Caliendo
Morning sickness.
Brady
You've been deceived by an agent of Satan himself.
Frank Caliendo
He's evil sitting right here.
Brady
Come on. No, no, he's not.
Frank Caliendo
He's not evil.
Brady
He's just a bit rude. Brady's gonna be doing that. Day of surgery Tuesday. Frank Caliendo is here. He's at Desert Ridge. Improv. Tonight, one show. Tomorrow two shows. Dale Hellistra is going to your show tonight. Oh, Dale's guy, He's gonna be there tonight.
Comedian/Guest
I thought you were sending him somewhere else.
Brady
No, we were good. The last week he went and saw the Sklar brothers and his wife doesn't like cussing. So we were gonna tell him they moved to the Tempe improv and we got him four tickets. And then it was. Stevo would have come out and done skyjacking and PP jokes. A lot of Dick and Dale would have.
Frank Caliendo
You guys are jerks.
Brady
Like, it would have been hilarious. But we sent him out to this. But he's coming to you this weekend.
Comedian/Guest
Okay, cool.
Brady
Because you know what show.
Comedian/Guest
So I can avoid him tonight. Oh, tonight? Yeah.
Brady
You can't avoid him.
Comedian/Guest
No.
Brady
You will not be able to not see him.
Comedian/Guest
I think John Bloom's coming tonight too.
Brady
Oh, no kidding. Yeah. The Suns guy.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
The radio Suns.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
Should I get Kevin Ray to go? The other voice of the Suns?
Comedian/Guest
I have a do play by play.
Brady
Of my show of your show on the stage.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah. That's a great idea.
Brady
Great plan.
Comedian/Guest
I love that idea.
Brady
I think.
Comedian/Guest
Talk about new bits.
Brady
Let's go over and see how it's got halftime. Do a little halftime show with the studio again. Oh, that's actually not.
Comedian/Guest
Throw it down to the side. Yeah, I like that idea.
Brady
Throw it down to the sideline reporters and see how it's going.
Comedian/Guest
They've got a little booth.
Brady
Like, that's actually a good bit for you anyway, is to just say, I don't know how you. Let's see how this thing's going. Let's go down to the sidelines. And then you do the impression of a sideline report.
Comedian/Guest
Right.
Brady
Like, you know, started off strong. I don't know who you would do. Who would you do?
Comedian/Guest
I don't know. I don't do any women.
Brady
All right, isolate that Toledo. I know you're in Montana, but let's get a clip of him saying, I don't do women. Yeah, we'd have to do, like, Ernie. Man, you make me sick with Ernie. And you could turn it to Ernie and Shaq and Kenny and Charles.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
At the halftime report.
Comedian/Guest
Oh, yeah.
Brady
The music can just start.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
Oh, it's halftime. Okay. And then you just go through that.
Comedian/Guest
Okay.
Brady
Are you gonna do that? Not tonight, but someday.
Comedian/Guest
No, it's a pretty good idea. I love it.
Brady
But you're not gonna do it.
Comedian/Guest
I think I'm gonna probably make it a football thing. I think.
Brady
Yeah, that be a good idea, cuz you could do the Fox. Oh, Jim.
Comedian/Guest
We thought it was gonna be good here, but what happened? Here we go. Oh, wrong guy. Who's talking right now? Tony? Yeah.
Guest/Listener
See?
Brady
Coming up with ideas for you.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
Finally. Finally. I'M delivering on.
Comedian/Guest
You're delivering forever.
Brady
I agree. But tonight you're. What time? 7:30.
Comedian/Guest
Six early. Because they have it to somebody else doing the second show. So 6:30 tonight and then 6 and 8:30 tomorrow.
Brady
Early birds.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
Oh, this is great.
Comedian/Guest
I love it. I gotta get home by nine.
Brady
Yeah. Stuff to do.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah. I got sleep to have.
Brady
That's right.
Guest/Listener
You gotta sleep again.
Comedian/Guest
I gotta get up at 5, 4:30am for no reason.
Brady
Why?
Comedian/Guest
I just do you wake up at.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
4:30, I'm up jonesing for a morning.
Brady
Show on your own.
Comedian/Guest
I do. I just don't. I usually. I gotta pee.
Brady
That's weird. Don't do that.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
And then once pee.
Brady
But I mean, just go back to bed.
Comedian/Guest
I can't.
Brady
Oh, that's. Yeah, you can. You're just.
Comedian/Guest
You know who else goes to bed early? Gruden. John Gruden wakes up at like, he gets up at 3:30. I get up at 3:30am every morning, man. I'm like, what time do you go to bed? 6pm.
Brady
He fires up at 6.
Comedian/Guest
Like he came to see my show last time in Tampa, when I was in Tampa. He came to the show, he was there, but left as. As I was leaving the stage. He left. I texted his right hand man, Jeff Leonardo, and I'm like, is John here? Does he want to say hello? Because I just seen him at the ffca, which is a strip mall that's got his office in it that they've redone. But the fire, the fired Football Coaches association, man. So he's like, no, John's John left. He's. He's probably almost in bed already.
Brady
He goes to bed that early? No kidding.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
You go to bed when the sun's still up in the summer.
Comedian/Guest
Do I?
Brady
Yeah, yeah.
Comedian/Guest
Oh, I was really. I was in bed early. I was probably in bed at 8 o' clock last night, but then I was back up at 11.
Brady
How about that?
Comedian/Guest
All right.
Brady
I'm getting yelled at from Montana.
Comedian/Guest
I know.
Brady
I'll tell you what, all right. We promoted you enough. Frank is there. All right, we're gonna get that together. We got the entertainment drill coming up in just moments. It's 98. It's John Holmberg here from the morning sickness. And it's time to talk about TVs Doug Hopkins of my home group and Doug Hopkins dot com. I tell you about the house down the street from me that has had a for sale sign in the yard for three months now. 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 have just called TVs Doug Hopkins because he's more than a guy buying 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 got to do is start the process online@doug hopkins.com or sing.
Frank Caliendo
Hopkins 1, 800, now.
HMS Crew Member
All right, HMS podcast time again. I'll let you know where to go for some great comedy in the valley this week. Well, just in case you haven't been paying attention or if you've been mia, we'll let you know that Frank Caliendo is going to be performing at the Desert Ridge Improv this Friday and Saturday night. So tune in. Frank's going to be in with the guys all week long and just maybe we'll have tickets for you to go catch Frank live up north at Desert Ridge for the complete lineups. And for tickets go to standup live.com Desert Ridge improv.com and Tempy improv.com Hol's Morning Sickness.
Brady
All right, it's time now for Brady to give us all that entertaining news we call the entertainment drill. And it's brought to you by our friends@reactdefense.com the home of tactical Black. Just got an email from the kingpin over there@reactdefense.com Jay Ackerman. And he says taking his his son and daughter in law, Josh and Tiffany out to see Frank's early show tomorrow.
Comedian/Guest
Oh, cool.
Brady
So it is imperative that tomorrow you do not suck tonight you can suck.
Comedian/Guest
I'll do my best.
Brady
Dale's going tomorrow. We got some VIPs in the building so we're make sure that they're all out.
Comedian/Guest
Do they want to come say hello after the show? I guess we can set that up for you.
Brady
You want to your people.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah. All right.
Brady
I'm telling you, go say hi.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah. And then I'll just move them on, shuttle them.
Brady
Right.
Comedian/Guest
That's it, said I. Yeah. Then they'll do a Tactical Black move.
Brady
Yeah. Maybe you try to attack them. Oh, great idea.
Comedian/Guest
Really smart.
Brady
Yeah. They won't know. They won't see that coming at all. The comedian goes crazy, tries to attack them and we'll see if they have any defense for your comedy moves. Or they'll just be laughing too hard. Anyway, they're gonna be out there. If you want to go be part of that. You can meet him at Frank show. Or you can go out there and meet them at React Defense right there where they are. They got the house of bruise up there in North Phoenix they got in Glendale. They're everywhere. And so is a weirdness. So if you want the weirdness to be around you and unprepared, sure, go about your business the same way you've been doing it. But if you want to be a little prepared, you want to be smarter, the only thing to do is go to reactdefense.com you get in great shape, start becoming a sheepdog and stop being that sheep and live life a little more confidently. That's exactly how that works. Reactdefense.com the home of Tactical Black Brady. Entertain me for the last time.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Apple TV plus is raising their monthly fee 30% from 9.99 to 12.99. And if you're already an existing customer, it'll happen the next 30 days.
Brady
It's reasonable for 12 bucks to get all that stuff.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Right. Will still be 99.
Frank Caliendo
Right.
Brady
But there's 3,000 of them.
Guest/Listener
Right.
Brady
So if Apple TV was the only thing you had, you'd be like 12 bucks. This isn't bad. I'm getting quite a lot of stuff. I play it, pay a little for the. But then you got that, you got another 12 couple. My. My bill for TV is in. Yours probably is crazy. You've got all your stuff going on. It's like 4, $500 a month at this point.
Comedian/Guest
Yes. To complain about cable prices going up and everything is in the same place.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
You had to call every year and readjust it. Like with DirecTV.
Brady
I remember McCain was the one that went nuts saying, we got a la carte this, a la carte that. And it was like, yeah. And there was that. I forget one. Senators, like, you guys know, right? He goes, don't do this. Like, they're gonna. You're gonna have 600. Your bills are gonna be twice as much as what you think is unfair right now.
Comedian/Guest
For the same thing, you can get whatever you want. But it's gonna be. It's. It's like more like getting a limo instead of taking the bus.
Brady
Exactly. And you know what's better? Like DirecTV gave you all you wanted and then had all those channels. Like, if you want extra, you can pay, right. For each show. Like ice.
Comedian/Guest
They did packages of channels together.
Brady
I think, well, they would do that. But then at the end, it's like, we've got movies too, if you want to buy one.
Comedian/Guest
Oh, right, right.
Brady
You know, we can do that if you want the movie thing. And it was actually a better setup than the mess I've got going on on my TV right now. The only difference is I don't have any stuff. It's just a TV now. I don't have clunky crap laying all over the place and a box and wires and all that. That's good.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Well, you can still do it with Netflix because they're going to have a new feature that will recommend movies and shows based upon your astrological sign.
Brady
Okay, stop.
Comedian/Guest
What?
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Scorpios are said to be passionate, charismatic, seductive and mysterious. They'll get suggestions like Wednesday or the Night Agent.
Brady
This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Leo's me, the Crown, Bridgerton, everything I hate.
Brady
Why would I watch either of those things? So all Leos are British. What does that mean?
TV/Entertainment Commentator
I do need confident, generous and loyal.
Brady
That's right. So why would I watch Bridgerton?
TV/Entertainment Commentator
I don't have the breakdown of the other.
Brady
Good. Because it's me. Are you. You're not. Does Michelle believe in astrology and stuff like that? Does she ever get a nonsense.
Comedian/Guest
No.
Brady
Good. The keeper right there.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Nicholas Cage is in talks for season five of True Detective.
Comedian/Guest
Yes. Yes. After I play John Madden, I'm gonna have to solve. I'm gonna be called Maddenlock.
Brady
Wait a minute. Matlock.
Comedian/Guest
Of course.
Frank Caliendo
All right, go.
Brady
That's too good to come up with and not have a thing.
Frank Caliendo
I mean, you're over there.
Comedian/Guest
And then, you know, it didn't look like that happened.
Frank Caliendo
And boom, the old lady crunched him.
Brady
I don't look good in white suits.
Comedian/Guest
This is kind of a white, kind of a gray. But, you know, I'm gonna.
Frank Caliendo
I'm a little Southern.
Comedian/Guest
Southern. Southern. I'm a little Southern.
Brady
I guess John Mattenlock is developing before our eyes. Is John Travolta gonna be in the new. That would be great if they did. Travolta and Cage in the New True Detective.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
That would be pretty.
Brady
That would be a pretty good matchup. Right? I think I'd watch.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Would they still do the Face Off?
Brady
Well, they would everybody be waiting for it, just in case.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Scraping their face.
Brady
It just seems like we're missing a clue of something. We should be doing something else, don't you think? Not Nicholas Cage. I mean, like, there's probably a way that I know that the people were searching. Know your face. So if there's a way we could get around that. Maybe. I don't know.
Comedian/Guest
Yes.
Brady
Surgery.
Comedian/Guest
Playing this for a while.
Brady
Surgery. Like to do you know kidneys probably.
Comedian/Guest
Would only be in recovery for 30.
Brady
To 40 couple minutes tops. You just get it on there. It just glues, right?
Comedian/Guest
Turn it around.
Brady
Luckily, our skull's the exact same shape. So this whole premise worked out. Nobody questioned it because America's stupid.
Comedian/Guest
Out of the hospital in 60 seconds.
Brady
Yeah, baby girl, I'm one kidney light.
Frank Caliendo
Here we go.
Comedian/Guest
Go ahead.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Looks like we had a little meltdown with a little Nas X.
Brady
He lost his mind. Underwear and cowboy boots, though. So how much did he lose it and how much was just still him? Because you lose your mind and you still put on your trademark cowboy boots. You haven't lost it all the way.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
And it looked like he was not necessary, not necessarily staggering around.
Brady
No, he was pretty. He was talking to people and saying he was going to a party. He took all his clothes off except underwear, put his boots back on and started to walk down the street. And they've got video of him, people. I think that that's my dream in life, is to be driving down the road and going, hey, was that little Nas X?
Comedian/Guest
Who?
Brady
The naked guy on the road. And then to find out, you're right. Like, I wanted to be the guys in the car that go, there's Jesse Smollett. Let's get him. Like, if that was a real story, to recognize a celebrity in the middle of the street, losing his mind would be the greatest thing ever. Remember when Martin Lawrence just ran down the freeway? I would have loved to have seen that. Will you lose your mind eventually? So I can.
Comedian/Guest
I'm close right now. Are you?
Brady
Pretty close?
Comedian/Guest
Real close.
Brady
I would like a celebrity to just lose it or just. John love it.
Comedian/Guest
Can we play list or can we do. No, it can be dark. That's. I'm okay.
Brady
You're perfect.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Frank loses it.
Brady
Frank loses it. People be like, we were waiting for that.
Guest/Listener
I'm naked on the fruit.
Brady
If you're out in my front yard.
Guest/Listener
Me and my dog are hungry. Come outside.
Brady
And there's Lovitz in underwear and cowboy boots holding his dog.
Guest/Listener
I'm serious about this. Like, some. Like, they're after me.
Brady
Like, oh, my God, Lovett's. Get in here.
Guest/Listener
My son is holding my dog. It's my actual dog.
Comedian/Guest
It's not what you're thinking.
Guest/Listener
I didn't say hog, you perverts. I'm talking about my dog. Geez. Anyway, the government and. Are you buying lunch? And by the. I was thinking maybe we could go grab something to eat real quick. You pay. Well, of course you pay.
Brady
I'M not doing it.
Guest/Listener
I'm not wearing pants. Where'd I keep my wallet? Jeez.
Brady
I want that kind of thing to happen, but what are the odds? But lucky people driving on the road went. And one of them had to say, I think that was little Nas X. And everyone shut up. And they turned around, and they were right.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
I could see Frank locking into a voice, and that's solid.
Brady
He's just into the forever because.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Yeah, that's the thing that would.
Brady
Oh, you got in a car wreck, and he was forever Tracy Morgan.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Yeah. Oh, my God. What happened to Caliento?
Frank Caliendo
A Walmart truck. That's crazy.
Brady
And you had to live your life like that.
HMS Crew Member
How long would Michelle.
Brady
Would Michelle last? No, the movie is that you do have the irregular voice becomes Tracy Morgan, but you can still do all the impressions. But, like, day to day, you have to walk around the house.
Frank Caliendo
I swear, Michelle, this is real. I can't get out of it, but this is still the real Frankenstuff. Frankenstein is a fun character that Oreos would make. I can't help myself. Anyway, I can still do all the impressions. So I'm going on the road.
Brady
Frank Caliendo gets kicked in the head by Tracy Morgan and suddenly transfers.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
That's a movie.
Frank Caliendo
What happened? If I'm Frank Caliendo, you might remember me from such things as. I don't know, the Frank Caliendo stuff. But by the way, it's called Tracy Friday instead of Freaky Friday, it's Tracy Friday.
Brady
This is too good not to happen.
Frank Caliendo
Now, Frank, here's what I do with John Matt. Here's a guy who does John Matt. Still doing that. But I can't get my regular voice back. I still got it, but I can't talk like me. I wish I could do an impression of my own Frank voice, but it's gone. For some reason, I'm unimpersonatable. I watch old tapes with myself. Michelle, I can't get him back. I'm trying. I listen to myself on my memo recorder. I have to find the real Tracy Morgan. They're gonna get kicked in the head a second time, but the guy is elusive.
Comedian/Guest
This is.
Brady
This writes itself. I think it's very Charlie Kaufman.
Comedian/Guest
Yeah.
Brady
It could be like. Yeah, this is a thing. If Dre and Tracy Morgan would do this.
Comedian/Guest
Oh, yeah.
Frank Caliendo
I would do that with right now. I'll kick Frank Alejandro square in the head for a movie check. I'm gonna put you back in you. I got to get back in you. And there's only one way to do it, I gotta get you pregnant with yourself.
Brady
You have to get pregnant through Tracy Morgan to get your voice back.
Frank Caliendo
It's like Inception, but it's a little bit different. It's sort of the same, but it's different. And I keep coming out the same and different. Here's. You could tell if it's real. Is the top spinning? If the top's spinning, you can't talk like yourself anymore. Just gotta get that top to stop spinning. And the only way to do it is for me to kick you in there. But now I'm a pacifist. I don't kick people like I used to. I'm a non kicker.
Brady
I'm a non kicker. Oh, he's better. This is just taking a turn. He kicks you in the head. And then after.
Frank Caliendo
Take that, Frank Caliendo.
Brady
And he kicks you in square.
Frank Caliendo
Take that.
Brady
And then he walks into the road and gets hit by a car and loses the use of his legs.
Frank Caliendo
Now I can't kick ever again. It looks like he's stuck like this. I can't retransfer you back. It looks like we've run into a problem. Unless one of them Brady spawn shows up.
TV/Entertainment Commentator
Then he and Frank have to get in the car and go 85 miles per hour to go back in time.
Brady
No, now we're getting silly. It's a good idea. I'm not gonna lie to you. I watch that, but it's too much.
Frank Caliendo
I built a DeLorean to get your voice back. Frank. We got to hurry back to the Frank future.
Brady
Please start writing these things down. Frank.
Comedian/Guest
To the future, Frank.
Brady
To the future, Frank in time.
Frank Caliendo
Gotta get Frank. Guitar. Stop singing. That's the power of Frank.
Brady
This is a good idea. People would. People would. They'll be clamoring for this if Happy Gilmore 2 did what it did. This has legs. You're just on stage doing your stand up. That's funny. Already pre written, right? First 10 minutes of the movie, you're done, right? Go home, introduce the family. Hi, Michelle. I'm Frank. How are you doing? Hey, there's my dog, Rocco. Everything's great, Joey. How's school today? It was great, dad. Yeah, I'll be outside for a second and you lean over to pick up a paper.
Frank Caliendo
Hi, Frank.
Comedian/Guest
What year Joey was that?
Brady
I don't know what year Joey I get. This is the Joey I get. Yeah, that's good.
Comedian/Guest
Joey's Belichick now.
Brady
All right, we got to do the Guadalupe squares and get out of here. The last one for Brady. A very special Brady based Guadalupe Squares is coming your way with our own Frank Kelly. And tonight at desert ridge improv desertridgeimprov.com also tomorrow we'll do the Squares next. We need a girl. We need a boy. What do we have for the Squares tickets?
Brett Vesely
Benjamin and Three Days Grace tickets.
Brady
Nice. We got good tickets for you as well. If you want to play, call us up. 585-9800. We'll do the Squares next.
Comedian/Guest
It's not weird. It's pretty cool actually.
Brady
No membership fee. I have heard enough of this.
