Episode: Henry Has A Kidney Proposal For Brady w/A Catch

---

Overview

In this lively and irreverent episode, the HMS crew—John Holmberg, Brady Bogen, Bret Vesely, and Dick Toledo—tackle an unexpectedly bizarre turn in Brady's medical journey: a listener named Henry has offered Brady his kidney, but only if Brady agrees to a steep set of demands including a new truck, cash, and a percentage of Brady’s income. The conversation veers from outrageous laughter to serious thoughts about medical ethics, conspiracy theories, and what makes a genuine act of kindness. Throughout, the crew maintains their signature blend of sharp wit and brotherly ribbing.

Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Strange Listener Email: A Kidney For Ransom (15:48 – 25:23)

• The Offer
  The centerpiece of the episode is a handwritten letter from “Henry,” a 54-year-old listener claiming to be a perfect kidney match for Brady, offering his organ if Brady meets a lengthy list of demands:

  • A 2026 Chevy Silverado (base model, any color)
  • $25,000 (cash or check)
  • 5% of Brady’s business income, every month, for life
  • Some KUPD swag and event tickets

• Crew’s Reaction
  The crew is instantly amused and appalled by the overtly transactional nature of the proposal.

  • Brett likens the letter to a ransom note:

    "He's holding his kidney hostage... this is a serious offer. There is no question. His blood is universal to anyone." (16:32)

  • Brady is direct:

    "Hard pass." (18:29)

  • John sees through the logic:

    "If you want to give your kidney to Brady out of the kindness of your heart, you can't nail him for an eighty thousand dollar truck, twenty five grand in cash and five percent of what Brady makes." (18:55)

• Questioning Legitimacy

  • The hosts openly question Henry’s medical knowledge and honesty:

    "By the way, I work in medicine. This guy says you'll always need anti rejection medicine. The guy's wrong. So you're even lying. You didn't even do your research before you started to hold this guy hostage." (21:18)

  • They joke about Henry’s presentation, pointing out the “chicken scratch” handwriting and the apparent smell of smoke on the letter, poking fun at Henry’s credibility:

    Brady: "It smells a little smoky to you?"
    Brett: "It did when it first came out." (20:49)

• Ethical & Comedic Spin

  • The crew turns the ordeal into an extended riff on quid pro quo medical “deals”.
  • John and Brett mockingly up the ante, inventing even more ridiculous demands for life-saving aid, e.g., “10 head of cattle,” “I get to live with you for eight months,” and “nudes of your wife”:

    "I'll give you mouth to mouth, but if I do this, here's what's gonna happen. You live: you give me ten grand, I get a brand new Pivot bike from Action Ride Shop and maybe, you know, a couple tickets from your office." (25:23)

2. Conspiracy Theories & Accepting Unknowability (02:43 – 06:18)

• Area 51, Epstein, and JFK
  The show briefly touches on how people get obsessed with government coverups and whether secrets can really be kept that long.
  • Brett remains skeptical of deep conspiracy theories:

    "Everybody would have to be on board, which is nearly impossible to get people to be without one leak. Also, maybe, just maybe, there's nothing there. There's nothing to tell." (04:18)

  • Brady plays devil’s advocate, but ultimately agrees that some mysteries may never resolve and it's pointless to obsess:

    "I can't fix it. I can't start it. I can't stop it. I have no access to this. So everybody screaming at each other... is all part of the design of, you know, power to make us go crazy over topics that can't be solved." (06:14)

3. Brady’s Recovery: Rules, Misinterpretation, and Kidney Diets (08:05 – 14:45)

• Brady’s Health Update

  • Brady details his current recovery regimen, the crew jokes about his memory lapses and “brain fog” post-surgery, especially around what doctors have told him regarding rest, driving, and diet:

    “The doctor said, that’s up to you. He said, there’s no way. The doctor said, that’s up to you.” (09:08)

  • Brett and John roast him for conveniently mishearing or ignoring medical advice—especially about when he can safely drive and necessary dietary changes for kidney health, with particular focus on sodium intake:

    "You also don't know the difference between low sodium diet and your less than sodium diet." (13:39)

• Relatability

  • The crew and listeners swap stories about giving up unhealthy habits as a show of solidarity, including a listener who quit drinking Coke and energy shots for his health and is “already feeling like garbage.” (08:09)

4. Comedy & Relatable Banter

• Making Light of Dark Situations
  • The group never lets the mood slip too far, keeping the show upbeat with their snark and sarcasm, even when talking about serious topics like transplants and conspiracy theories.

[Brett]

You've been deceived by an agent of Satan himself. He's evil. Sitting right here. Come on. No, no, he's not. He's not evil. He's just a bit rude. And before we get into this letter that was just given. I want. I just went through quickly and there's some things in there. Just the extra. But Brady's read it and there's a nice offer and I'd like to ask a few questions. First question email asked. Brady, what would you be more ashamed of if your invisible friend watched you squeeze it out in front of a fish tank? Or if you actually followed through and had sex with the $150 hooker? When I struggle with more, you know, the invisible friends. You think?

[Brady]

Yeah.

[Brett]

All right. Wow. And that's because. Both bad in the eyes of you.

[Brady]

Yeah, it's kind of. Well, it was legal there.

[Brett]

Yeah. You weren't breaking any laws, but.

[Brady]

And I wasn't married.

[Brett]

That's right. He hates that it was.

[Brady]

Well, it would be worse if you were married.

[Brett]

Well, sure, but he hates. Well, not to her, though, like. What you're saying you weren't married to her? It was out of marriage?

[Brady]

No, but I'm saying wasn't in a relationship.

[Brett]

Well, that's. Yeah, that's. That's going down two bad lanes.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[Brett]

And then of course, the. The dirty thoughts thing and the grubby gross sex.

[Brady]

Yeah. I guess the fact that you're paying.

[Brett]

For it, but you know, but you're still just. Now you're whacking off watching other people do it or thinking about other people do it. It's pretty much the same thing.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[Brett]

In the eyes. If you're invisible, as this guy said. Interesting. An interesting idea. It's something this guy emailed in and said. You're talking about the Epstein thing. The government makes anyone associated with the redaction stuff sign 50 year non disclosure agreements. They're punishable by life in prison or death for treason. It's the same thing employees at Area 51 have to sign. How do you know that? And also, wouldn't somebody spill the beans? Eventually you would think, here's the real.

[Brady]

Some of those guys already starting to talk a little bit.

[Brett]

Well, no, none of the people who actually worked there are. It's just a bunch of people who talk to somebody who worked there. Like, here's the thing that makes me kind of leave the conspiracy stuff. Everybody would have to be on board, which is nearly impossible to get People to be without one leak. Also maybe, just maybe, there's nothing there. There's nothing to tell. Yeah, there is no. There is no there there. The Kennedy thing that my conspiracy is, it was Lee Harvey and he acted alone. And people are like, I can't take it. I can't. That's not. And I'm like, there might have been some stuff that led up to it that was a little crooked, but this dude took it upon himself to finish the job. Very, very capable possibility. And we want it to be so much more. So we start adding things in that don't make sense or do make sense. And there's no real evidence of it, but there's thoughts and speculation. Same thing maybe with the Epstein's. Maybe there is literally nothing there and we have it in our heads there has to be something there. And there isn't.

[Brady]

Maybe, or you haven't found the right person. There was only right a few people that maybe not orchestrated with the assassination that you're talking about.

[Brett]

Oh no, look, I mean there's a lot of people that would have seen or heard something and. And come out later. Maybe, just maybe it was one guy. The Epstein thing. 33, 000 pages of several visitors and all this other. Nothing's coming from it. Maybe we've blown it up in our own heads. I've gotten to the point where I don't care. Exactly. Because I don't care. Because they're gonna never gonna know. Right. Exactly. There's a certain like aspect of just accepting that it's never going to be told to you. They're like, ask. Screw it. What am I wasting my time with this for? And by the way, if something does come from that, that's huge. It's going to screw with all of us. I can't fix.

[Brady]

Cleansing will happen.

[Brett]

Yeah. I can't fix it.

[Brady]

Of the people that were in power.

[Brett]

Maybe, maybe, maybe not. I can't fix it. I can't start it. I can't stop it. I have no access to this. So everybody screaming at each other, us screaming at each other, is all part of the design of, you know, power to make us go crazy over topics that can't be solved. We don't have access to figure it out. We never will. If Kennedy's any lesson to us, we can sit and scream into the wind all we want. Never gonna know. They're never gonna tell you. Ever. And by the way, Brady, one full. I'm 24 hours in. Brett, you. I don't know if you've had Any water that I see you drinking. Tons of water over there. Oh, yeah. I give. You've already broken your promise to Brady to give up my confidence level. Yeah. He did not follow through. I forgot about it. Giving something up for Brady because Brett chose to give up water, and he's literally. I'm throwing it away. Literally has two waters in front of me. There's no. There's no Tito's in this building, so I couldn't. Yes, there is. Where? My office. I'm going to get it. All right, you go guzzle the Tito. I will. And replace the water like you said. All right. I'm going right. Right. Now, I, on the other hand, am drinking nothing but water. Now, I will drink other stuff, but I've given up my soda pop addiction. And one day later, it's. It's. My brain's like, hey, man, remember what we used to love to do together? It wants it, but I'm feeling all right. I'm doing okay. No caffeine. 24 hours. No, I'm going to get that bottle. No delicious Coke Zero or Dr. Pepper. Zero. All because we. Brady has to give up food in order to survive. Like, the food you love so much, you know, it's kind of. It's not gonna be fun, so. And some sort of a sympathy strike. We're doing it with him, and a lot of people are emailing in. A guy emailed in and said, 24. He was the one who drank four liters of Coke a day to dry and had energy drinks and all that.

[Brady]

Two bowls of chips.

[Brett]

Yeah. And he's like, I know. That was a different.

[Brady]

Oh, that was different.

[Brett]

This dude's a driver. Four liters of coke, a couple of energy shots. He's like, I gave it up, and already I'm feeling like garbage. And he got a detox. And it's also sweet. Brady can live. And Brady's not on the oxy this morning. He's weaning himself off of it. He actually drove today, Right.

[Brady]

I did.

[Brett]

Are you supposed to do that? Did I just spill the beans to the doctor? They tell you these things. You do know that they give you instructions.

[Brady]

Yeah, I'm good to go.

[Brett]

No, no, no, no. What did the doctor say? Don't drive for a few days.

[Brady]

No, no, because I asked him. I mean, the last thing I asked him about, you know, going to work.

[Brett]

Sure.

[Brady]

When I was leaving the hospital.

[Brett]

Right.

[Brady]

And he's like. I go, what about, like, on Tuesdays? Like, you're not lifting. You're basically standing or Sitting and talking.

[Brett]

For it if you didn't, like, exert.

[Brady]

And I said, what about driving again? That's up to you. You know, there's no way.

[Brett]

He said, that's up to you. He said, there's no way. The doctor said, that's up to you.

[Brady]

If you're doing. If you're doing the oxy or anything like that. No driving.

[Brett]

Yeah, no driving while you're on drugs. And take it easy. They don't want you driving with that split down the center of your gut either. They told you not to drive.

[Brady]

I'll confirm it on the 8th.

[Brett]

They told you so. He's got to drive until the end, regardless. Just knock it off with what you wanted to hear and actually listen to the people. I guarantee told not to. I'm all for you driving, but there's no way. The doctor said, yeah, get out there, Tool around, speed. There's no way a doctor with any. Any good doctor is going to tell.

[Brady]

A guy one yesterday, Kapoor saying, you know, get out there. You know, start getting more active.

[Brett]

Right. That's not driving. They don't want you. I guarantee a doctor's probably like, maybe just lay off that. You've been through a lot. Your brain fog's probably still, I can tell. Your brain fog.

[Brady]

No listing for sure. You know, for like.

[Brett]

Sure, yeah, four weeks. You know better than that. But, like, you know, one day off the oxy and you're back out there. Now, I understand. I would do the same thing. Yeah, because there's probably, you know, 10% of the population is on something illegal and 70% is on something legal, and they're all driving. So you're a day removed from your oxy. You're not supposed to be driving. Well, maybe. Maybe Ronnie drives like Megan. Oh, I'm all for not riding with a wife.

[Brady]

No comment.

[Brett]

Yeah, she can't drive. I guarantee you she can't drive. I saw a thing on Instagram yesterday where a donkey backed a cart into a spot between two cars, and it said, it's official. Women are in third place driving now. Donkey parallel parked is. It was perfect. I'm not riding ever again. Ever again. Give me the keys. Give me the keys. So I understand why you drove, but don't lie to us like that. The doctor told you not to drive for a little while. You didn't hear it because you don't listen.

[Brady]

I'm not a doctor. You don't ask, you know, if they don't tell you. Yeah, I don't want you to do that.

[Brett]

He did though. And you just passed it off. Yeah. I was in the room with you when you started to tell me what the doctor said. And you said that your numbers needed to get lower, which would have resulted in your death if that were true. You just didn't hear it right. Like, nope, those numbers don't need to get lower. If those get lower, you die. Nope. Doc said Frank goes, no, he's right, because that was your percentage of kidneys. You were excited.

[Brady]

No, I needed that. I need that to go higher.

[Brett]

We know in the beginning you told Frank and I that went down to that. So we need that number to go lower. Nope, you don't.

[Brady]

I reversed around.

[Brett]

I gave you the excuse that you were in a brain fog because it was a day after that. But you said, the doctor said that you're a day removed from your surgery. You shouldn't be driving. You are winking a nod. I got your back. You shouldn't.

[Brady]

Eight days after I should be able to drive.

[Brett]

They told me six weeks off work after my surgery, and I'm like, you're out of your minds. I'm going back two days from now. Like, that's fine. But for legal reasons, we as doctors have to tell you not to do anything like that. Because if you do, you can't come back and sue us. If your gut splits open from hitting that steering wheel, stopping too fast, they'd tell you, we told you not to drive. There's no way with that gash you have in the center of your belly that they're like, yeah, we're totally comfortable with you bumping into stuff. And, yeah, it's great. And you're on.

[Brady]

That's gonna happen. Even if I was a passenger, if you got an ass.

[Brett]

Not necessarily. There's no steering wheel in front of you. And you're. Yeah, you're riding around. You're right. That's why I'm fine with you doing it. But I'm saying, no, doctor. I'm telling you, I'm on your team. But no doctor told you. Yeah, get out there and drive. We just go over to that. What do they call Bondurant now. Let's get him out in a speed racing. Let's get out there to Radford and get you in a car. Nobody told you to drive.

[Brady]

No one told me not to drive.

[Brett]

Yes, they did. You just didn't listen to them. Take it easy is a big thing. Probably no driving. I want to get out there doing all that. You're on drugs. They wanted to get up, so it was Rose colored glasses again. This guy says, I do lines of hydrocodone mixed with Xanax and I drive to work. Yeah. And Brady Nicholas puts it perfect. He says, a medical professional has never looked at you in any way, shape or form and said, well, whatever you do next is up to you. You decide that's not what doctors would do looking at you after that surgery.

[Brady]

And it certainly feels that way.

[Brett]

Yeah, because you made it feel that way. That's you. We've heard what you say doctors say, and you're very rarely saying the correct thing. Remember, the diet changes. Don't have to change a thing. Except for line two where it said, except if you've got kidney failure, then you're in big trouble and you gotta change pretty much all of it. You argued about it because you heard what. No, you heard what you wanted. You also don't know the difference between low sodium diet and your less than sodium diet. When the doctor told you you need to cut the sodium back, it wasn't from what you're eating. It's from what the standard amount of sodium would be, which is less than a teaspoon. Every day you have to cut back from that, not from your current situation. That's the pain of it. But what did you hear? Just a little less salt. Wash it down with some water. No, that's not low sodium. That's. Do you ever see how much sodium we're supposed to eat in a day? And I know there's an argument that sodium is really good for a healthy body, but for an unhealthy body, it's not. The amount of sodium we're supposed to eat every day is so small, it's just a tiny bit of a teaspoon and they want you to cut back from that.

[Brady]

And after the operation, which is funny, is they're loading you with saline.

[Brett]

Yeah, well, saline is different. Yeah, that's different. Yeah.

[Brady]

But I go, it's interesting because it's the iodized sodium too. That's the.

[Brett]

Well, there's a whole bunch of different white flour. You get into the specific ways that sodium works out. It's brutal. Morning sickness Medicate K U PD Audible's.

[Brett]

Just dropped this off this morning. I know Brady's read it. I wanted to read it to all of you. It says Dear Brady, my Name's Henry. I'm 54 years old. I don't smoke, I don't use drugs. Throws in what he is Irish, English, Scottish. Like he's a setter. Also something very important to your situation. I am typo negative. RH negative. Do you know what that is Brady? Do you know what that means? It means that no anti rejection medicine would be necessary. When I give you my kidney. And I want to help you live. But if I do this, your life will change. And so will mine. He writes just like you. Same handwriting. Terrible. This is what I want. And it's non negotiable. You're being held here. This guy's. He's holding his kidney hostage. I want one 2026 Chevy Silverado. Basic model. What? Don't care what color. Two $25,000 cash or check three. Five percent of your business every month while you and I are alive. So. Ransom note okay. He's holding. Yeah, he's got it like Brady's got to say yes. Cutouts from magazines with the letters and stuff. 4 CUPD swag and tickets every once in a while. How you do that? This is a serious offer. It says there is no question his blood is universal to anyone. There are no non rejections. Think about this and think fast. This will be this offer is going to it rescinds after a certain time. This message will self destructive. Exactly. If you choose to accept once compatible by doctors. Poof.

[Brady]

Proof.

[Brett]

It says P O O O F. I think that's in our proof. 30 days till surgery. Let me know if I die on that table. I will have to set up my family. So everything's up front.

[Brady]

I need to set up my family.

[Brett]

Yeah. That's from Henry. And he wrote this this morning. He dated at 9425 Brady. Would you like to buy this man a Chevy silverado? Give him $25,000 and 5% of your business dealings every month along With a few tickets from KUPD for his unrejectable kidney. Which by the way, tells me he's been to the doctor a few times to see if he can give this kidney away. Do you think he's pulled the scam a few times? Yeah, he wants the stuff up front. Would you like to tell Henry what all of us are thinking?

[Brady]

Hard pass.

[Brett]

That's not what I was thinking either. But yeah, hard passes, that's Brady's for. Go yourself, Henry. That's what I was saying. It's sort of a nice offer. Until he starts with the hostage demands. Hamas is like, geez, that's. You guys are really horrible about the demands there. If you want to give your kidney to Brady out of the kindness of your heart, you can't nail him for an eighty thousand dollar truck, twenty five grand in cash and five percent of what Brady makes. Would you rather do that or just go on dialysis for a while and wait for somebody nice to come along?

[Brady]

Yeah.

[Brett]

Yeah, I think so too. Here's how this works, Henry. You give Brady your non rejectable kidney and then afterwards start leaning on him a little bit about the car. Well, I did give you a kidney. Brady's nice enough that he'll be like, you're right. All right, let's go get you a Silverado and you can negotiate it down from a 2026. Brady will probably kick in on a 2023. He doesn't want to go full new prices, but he'd wander over there to Sanderson Ford and talk you out of the Silverado and into something he can get you into for a deal. Those F150s are nice. So you're not going to get exactly what you want, but you still get a new car, which is part of the game. 25 grand. After you drive the Silverado for a while. Having some trouble making ends meet, Brady? Oh yeah, that's rough, Henry. Sure could use a little help. You know how I helped you? I gave you life. How much do you need? 25k. I'll give you 10. Deal. You'll get him. You're doing this all wrong. You blackmail him after you give him the kidney. Rookie moves. Big time. Rookie moves. If you're gonna hold a dying man hostage for organs, you gotta do it smarter than this. Henry, this was just rude. But then on the flip side, Brady, go after yourself. I already got it. Exactly. And then what? You got Henry chasing you around with a knife, trying to get his kidney back. Then he goes to jail and Brady's free and clear Ya, Henry, this is a bad idea. This was poorly handled. And by the way, next time don't scrawl it out on a Mead paper. And now I know why. Teachers used to get so mad when you just tore the thing out of the spiral notebook and handed it in with the fringe.

[Brady]

Who still has spiral? I'm not sure about the no smoking thing either.

[Brett]

It smells a little smoky to you?

[Brady]

It did when it first came out.

[Brett]

Yeah, you can peel off the little fringy parts of this from the spiral notebook.

[Brady]

He was doing it just before.

[Brett]

No, he did it in the car.

[Brady]

Rushed.

[Brett]

Yeah, because he's a psychopath. I'm gonna go down there and do this right now. Type the letter out, spell check. Don't make us read through your chicken scratch to hold Brady like ransom and blackmail him with a kidney. By the way, I work in medicine. This guy says you'll always need anti rejection medicine. The guy's wrong. So you're even lying. You didn't even do your research before you started to hold this guy hostage. So hard pass or. Brett, what did he say? I can't believe. What was it again? Henry Gove F yourself. Yeah, that's right. Thanks but no thanks. Douche. He feels bad. That's why I'm doing it. Brady actually feels bad. You don't feel bad about this? This guy didn't make a nice offer.

[Brady]

No.

[Brett]

Yeah, so you can call him a douche. Henry, you douche. You might be being hilarious. I find it very funny, but still a huge douche move. I want to do something out of the kindness of my heart for you, Brady. But first I want a truck. 25k and 5% of all your earnings. And maybe some Lincoln park tickets. Saturday. Go on. Are you. Jesus? Sounds like Liam Neeson taken or something. I'm coming for you, Brady. And I want to give you my kidney. But first, what you're going to do is give me some things. $25,000American. 12026 Chevy Silverado. Any color of your choice.

[Brady]

Base.

[Brett]

What a great thing you gave him that. I just want the base model. Don't go out of your way and pick the color yourself. At least he didn't want Denali or something. I mean, I guess you lucked out. I want a 2026 Chevy Silverado, fully loaded, puke brown. Yeah, why don't you get a custom paint job?

[Brady]

Color didn't matter.

[Brett]

Yeah, that's what I mean. That's. Get a custom paint job on this thing. Wheels, tires. What do you. Why are you pulling back on that. Your offer's on. It's ridiculous. You come in hot there, Henry. Nobody's interested in that. People try to be nice. This one says I have the same blood and RH factors as Henry, and all I wanted was to play in Brady's foursome. Next heat stroke open, if you guys ever have one, would you like Dean's offer? He'll give you a kidney if you give him.

[Brady]

Sounds pretty good.

[Brett]

Re. Round of golf. Yeah. Take it, because we're never gonna have one of those again. That's true. And you take it. Henry, look how hard you overshot this. What? Is Jerry Jones your agent? I think we blew it here. I think MACA needs less. I don't. I don't think we should offer him any money at all. Green Bay's like, we'll give you all of that for whatever. I don't know what Jerry's talking about. Maka wanted a 20, 26 Chevy Silverado, and I said, forget it. That's too rich for my blood. Anyway, sorry you have to deal with these kind of things, Brady. These terrible, sideways, crooked backroom deals. Thank. And you don't know him from Adam. He might have been a crackhead. He writes like a crackhead, and he sits in parking lots and scrawls out kidney ransomware. Has a Mead notebook still. He's still got a Mead notebook he uses for communication, not just for his random death thoughts. And he'll fire back. Hey, I was being nice. I'm like, were you? What part was nice? The part where you strip Brady and his family 5% of their income or the truck or the 25 grand with your magic. Jesus. Kidneys. They do not ever get rejected by magic kidneys. If that were true, wouldn't people with his blood type and whatever Rh is be, like, top of the line for the kidney donation people? And they'd be getting paid all the time, like you. You make it so we never have to have rejections. That's not true. There's rejections all the time. Make a second offer, Henry. So John, is Henry's last name Berg or Stein? No, that's not unnecessary. And we already know why Brady would reject that kidney anyway. It's 902. If you want to donate a kidney to Brady, do it with kindness. And then later, hold it over his head, crying out loud, what are you doing? You're functioning right now. You're fine for a little while longer. You don't need this crap from people going through enough.

[Brady]

Not right now.

[Brett]

No, not right now. You Know, ever. You never need that 25k out of your pocket to survive. That's just rude. That's like seeing a guy just got hit by a car. I'll give you mouth to mouth, but if I do this, here's what's gonna happen. You live. You give me ten grand, I get a brand new Pivot bike from Action Ride Shop and maybe, you know, a couple tickets from your office. Now, let's get nude to your wife. I want nudes of your wife. I'm not gonna blow into your mouth until 8. Not affirmatively. Give me a thumbs up. Do something. I can't move my legs and arms. Tell you what I'm gonna do. I'm not gonna move you around, but I'm gonna give you a cool wheelchair like Stephen Hawking had. But if I do this, that's.

[Brady]

So let me understand. 10 head of cattle.

[Brett]

I get to live with you for eight months. Just eight months. That's not very long when you think about it like a gestation period. I have to stay in your house from January all the way through August up to Labor Day. I get to use your toilet. Even if you're on it. You got to give it up to me. If I have to pee. And you're going to, you have to move for me. That's my toilet while I live there.

[Brady]

Pay for your EOS fitness for five years.

[Brett]

Third, I get to. I get my feet rubbed by you, the wife and the kid every day. Every day, out of the kindness of my heart, I want you to live. But these are my standards. Every night, I need you to tuck me in. And really, when you're tucking me in, I need you to kind of just put your face over my balls like an Ohio State doctor and just breathe on it. Check the matter with you. Just say what a guy said. Brady can't have my kidney. I'm too scared. It's horrifying. If it came down to it, and I was the only one, I'd give it to you. Or if it started to look like you were on a deathbed. Nah, even then, I think I'd just let you go. I can't do that because I can't imagine how bad I'd feel if you started to abuse it or if you just dropped that after. Be like, oh, I want my kid. Do I get that back? It's like putting cans in a broad. And then she divorces you a month later. It's like, well, I gotta get some money back for that, right? I'll get all up D. Maybe that's what I would do. I would give you a kidney if you put in your will, like a bunch of money for me. You know, the first five years. So if you last longer than five years, then it's for the good. But if you check out earlier, start doing dumb stuff, or he gets hit by an asteroid. I should get something for the effort. You know, you give a guy a kidney and it lasts like. It's like your wedding thing. You're not giving a gift until you show that it can last for seven months or more, right? Same thing with the kidney. You shouldn't get a kidney until I get something up front for that. Not like Henry. How about a little for the effort here? Yeah, give me something that kind of, you know, balances this out. Wow. This guy's on top of it. Toledo didn't check to see if his mom's a kidney donor. You sons of bitches. They're all just sons of bitches. Dale Hellstraight's gonna join us because guess what, everybody? It's football talk. And we can talk to him about real stuff now. We'd have to listen to him drone on about country music anymore. Dale joins us next on football Thursday. It's 98. Hey. It's not weird. It's pretty cool, actually. No membership fee. I have heard enough of this for you, pd.
