[Jamie]

None of the fluff. Let's get started. There's more of the best of Homebrew morning sickness. It's time for the entertainment drill. It's brought to you by our [e-mail] that's the home of tactical Black self defense training. Get yourself involved. You're going to need it too. Because you get up to Vegas with these idiots, you're going to have scoops to come. The warrior idiots coming at you. We don't know you're drunk and crazy. In fact, Jordan kept trying to say that he could land a Punch on me. But he realized how important tactical black was in the pool. Because every time he tried to punch me, he did the worst thing in the world, which was pull his hand back. And I hit him in the face three times for every time he tried to punch me once. And he learned. Wow, that's real. Remember when we were there with Billy?

[Brady]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

And we were a little bit drunk, and that dude started to fight with that girl, and Billy went over to Captain Save a Ho, and you had a gun I could see clearly imprinting onto his through his shirt. You stumble into nonsense. The world is, you know, it's chock full of it. And why not have some preparation in your life so you know how to defend yourself. And most importantly, get away from it. That's the best part. They teach you all that? Reactdefense.com Sheepdog Even when you're drunk, you stop being that sheep. It's the home of tactical Black Brady Entertainment.

[Brady]

Jamie.

[Jamie]

Ah, shucks. But got to go. And I didn't. Yeah. To the people that think I'm the genie. And the reason I'm talking about as the lamp turns so much as to get more attention is the genie. You think I'm not getting enough attention the way I'm doing stuff between genie commercials? How scar for attention do I need to be to have an alter ego in a commercial for. That's silly to think I'm that gore. Is it? Oh, shucks. Maybe I am the genie. Hey, genie, what do you need? I can't get enough of it. And all these emails I'm answering right now, I can't get enough of it either. Clearly she's sick of him. Like, yep, we're all feeling it. We're feeling Tasha's pain. This is a useless genie who's done nothing good at a parking lot full of ducks for a month. Then he slaughtered a million ducks. Yeah, and that's the one thing. It's like in the next commercial, Scott Haynes said, wouldn't it be great if she went to, like, Shakespeare in the park and everybody got coveted and she came back to the gym? What's going on there, Tasha? Oh, I was at the park this weekend. Everyone got coveted during the Shakespeare in the Park. It was a bunch of sick thespians. Did you just wish for that? Huh? Here you go. Why are all these fat ladies with short hair here? You said you wanted a room of thick lesbians. Oh, Jeannie. Ah, sucks. I'll kill them. I killed all the lesbians, but there's a couple of them that. That made it. I need your help. What have you done? I've killed again. Tasha. And then the judge.

[Brady]

It's like.

[Brett]

Here, you're cunning linguist.

[Jamie]

Here, you're cunning linguist. That's just a guy doing a thing to a girl. Well, you. Oh, shucked. Go back to the Colonel Angus joke. Yeah. And then in a couple commercials from now, it's like. It is the opinion of this court that you are a monster and have murdered thousands, if not millions of ducks and lesbians. Ah, shucks. You are hereby sentenced to life in the jar. Good. Asap. Doors. It just goes right into the jingle. I need to write some of these anyway. Sorry. Hopefully they're having fun with it, too. But you have us addicted to your soap opera. It's crazy.

[Brady]

Babe Ruth Historic 1932 World Series jersey becomes the most valuable sports collectible ever. Guess how much ever.

[Jamie]

Jesus. Valuable one ever. It's got to be like. I don't even know what that. Like seven or eight million bucks. I don't know how much the most one was. How much is it?

[Brady]

24.1.

[Jamie]

Wow. That's the Jersey 32 was the. Call your shot. Jersey 32's the Chicago Cubs. Call your shot.

[Brady]

Yeah. During game three.

[Jamie]

Right. Is that what they're selling or just.

[Brady]

They sold it.

[Jamie]

That's the jersey he was wearing where.

[Brady]

He famously gestured the bat. Yeah.

[Jamie]

Oh, well, there you go.

[Brett]

Does it say what he. What passed? What it passed? I guess, like what second place is now?

[Jamie]

Oh, yeah. Now what is the second thing? That's good.

[Brady]

It was like 7 million.

[Jamie]

Yeah, that's what I figured. Somewhere under 10. Right? Around 10.

[Brady]

It topped Mickey mantle's card, basically. 1952 card.

[Jamie]

The rookie. How much is that? Seven.

[Brady]

I didn't get a price on that.

[Jamie]

Now, the research was done.

[Brady]

I think that was 7 million.

[Jamie]

I think at one time it was 7 million. That doesn't answer.

[Brett]

Wagner's card is worth more than that.

[Jamie]

That's what I thought. Honus Wagner was around 5 or 6.

[Brady]

Ranker.com did a list of the best high school movies of all time.

[Jamie]

I said high school. Oh, because you get the. It was in under the Sea dance.

[Brady]

Ferris Bueller's Day off. Number three.

[Jamie]

[Brady]

Sixteen Candles was number five. After Greece, Dazed and Confused, Mean Girls.

Wolf of Wall street, number one. Yeah.

[Brett]

Casinos?

[Brady]

569. Casino, 422. Not in the top eight.

[Brett]

How many Scorsese movies are in the top ten there?

[Brady]

Straight out of Compton, 392. Casino I said was 422. Uncut Gems is number two. 560. Oh, that's right.

[Brett]

It wasn't bad, actually, for Sandler, Reservoir Dogs, 269.

[Brady]

And then Pulp Fiction. 265.

[Jamie]

[Brett]

How many with Samuel Jackson alone.

[Commercial Announcer]

Did you mention this?

[Jamie]

I.

[Brady]

Sorry, I just was looking.

[Commercial Announcer]

The second most valuable jersey is Jordan's 98 NBA Finals game one jersey sold for 10.1.

[Jamie]

Is that the flu one? 98.

[Brett]

No, it wasn't game one.

[Jamie]

No wonder why that one went for so much.

[Commercial Announcer]

They're calling it the Mona Lisa.

[Jamie]

Huh. Next to the Babe Ruth one. Well, the Babe Ruth one is. That's. If that's to call your shot, jersey. That's why. That's $24 million. That's the flu.

[Brett]

Shoes get big bucks, too, when they get sold.

[Jamie]

Huge ones. Yeah. Not that kind of money, but. Yeah. Think of all the crap you've thrown away that probably has, you know, not that kind of value, but something on it. Oh, my goodness.

[Brady]

This is pretty cool. There's a convoy of 55 Harley Davidson bikers with the bust of Lemmy. They went from the Bloodstock Open Air Festival in Nottingham, England, and rode it to Lemmy's hometown to spread his ashes and to put the.

[Jamie]

It was more than a bust. It was an urn.

[Brady]

Yeah. Had some of the ashes.

[Jamie]

We're still not done spreading Lemmy around.

[Brady]

I know. That's what I was thinking for a decade.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Brady]

It's like, put this up.

[Brett]

Many ashes has Been out there. It's like Ralphie May size now.

[Jamie]

Maybe it's just all of his ash trays. They're still getting rid millions and millions of those.

[Brady]

That's the problem. They got them mixed up.

[Jamie]

Yeah, that could be. There's more Lemmy ashes. You forgot this one, mate. You gotta spread my ashtrays. That's a great looking bust though. That's the most I watched the NFL hall of Fame stuff. I never think the bus looks like the guy. Whoever did Lemmy's bust was perfect. That might actually be him all.

[Brady]

So Lemmy's ashes are at the Rainbow Bar and Grill.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Brady]

Hellfast Hellfest in France and one other. Oh, the. The town they just went and they.

[Brett]

Gave some to his friends too. They put him in little Bullet Bullet members and stuff like that.

[Jamie]

He's everywhere and he's nowhere at the same time.

We're just now hearing about that. The ants was the cell and everything.

[Brady]

Else everyone knew about the pee.

[Jamie]

Unforgotable. Yeah, I couldn't remember. A lot of that stuff just got forgotten. It was not my fear. It was Nikki Six's fee. It tastes like heroin.

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 TV's Doug Hopkins because.

So all you gotta do is start the process [e-mail] or sing.
