[B]

You thought that was funny? You were laughing like a hyena when he said it. What the hell is wrong with you? I love it. That's ghost right there. Dance my cowboy. It is time now for the entertainment drill. Then we'll get the heck out of here. It is 9:57. Getting emails from people. The guy said he was pulling into his said homeburg. Lady at the window says you're too loud and inappropriate. I'm a truck driver delivering mallow up here in Oregon. I was checking in at the window and I realized I forgot to put some information on the bol. Whatever that is. Completely forgot to turn the radio down.

[A]

Ill of lading.

[B]

Is that right? Thank you. Well done. Trucker. Brett makes an appearance. We didn't know, man. I know. You were in the middle of talking about some Indian doctors. Hard one. And she asked me to turn it down and acted all smug. And I gave her half an apology and I turned it down a little. She raised her voice and said, just turn it off. I said, hey, lady, check me in so I can be on my way. Don't tell me what I can do with my truck. You got an issue. Call my boss well, wait. I am the boss. He starts fighting.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Someone behind her said something and she aggressively just slid the window shut. Look, John, I'm not an a hole, I'm a leave me alone, I'll leave you alone kind of guy. But have her right or was I wrong? Should I go back and apologize? I got to see her again when I check out. Now she knows her way into your world.

[A]

Do her goddamn job.

[B]

Your job. Your job. Shut it, lady. Shut up. For look, by the way, it's an Indian doctor's high hard one. It's not that big. It's hilarious. And then the seal of the year award we gave to that lad, Charlotte, was that her name? I think that's right. Yeah. Her name was Charlotte Busby, something like that. Says John. You said you would have been in that school if you were a kid today. Trust me, you wouldn't have been there. My wife worked there handling IEPs. Brett, I don't know. I don't know. That is either these kids are either way slow, have autism, or the worst of the worst in public schools. Like little six year olds who use the N word more than rappers do. Middle school girls with ankle monitors and stuff. The staff is allowed to go hands on to subdue the kids. They all have walkie talkies for quick comms. Once my wife asked me for help at the front desk because a kid charged her with 8 seconds guy or within seconds 8 guys had her on the ground. Wise asses like you would have been eaten alive in there.

[C]

You don't know that IEP is individual education plan.

[B]

Mike works too well. Just came and shouting in.

[C]

What is an individual Individual education plan. So if little Johnny is having trouble in math, they give you a little individual education plan that says that he can basically do what he wants in order to get by in math.

[B]

That's the plan.

[A]

I had one of those.

[B]

I would love that. I should have gone nuts in school and gone to one of these. I can't do it.

[C]

School it can. It can give you extra time to do tests. If you have trouble taking tests, you can have an IEP that says you can take it by yourself in another room.

[B]

I lied to a Spanish teacher in college and said that I have test taking anxiety because I recognized that she was lib friendly back then. Like I'm just. I freeze on tests. I know the work. I believe that you do know the work and I'm gonna help. You didn't get anything right. And she talked to me after because this is terrible. And I said, I know I told you I know this stuff. And she started to ask me a couple questions like mad Z test or whatever it was. Whatever apple is. I remember that one. And I said apple. And she goes, you do know the material. I'm like, you got lucky that you hit one. I did know. She gave me a B. I think I got like two things right. I didn't know any Spanish. I just lied to her and said I was scared of tests. Ended up of mcc. I did better in Spanish than I did in English. I got a C in English. I was an English major and I did better in as a Spanish speaking student. Anyway, I E. What is it? I. Well that's what's going on there. And evidently the kid that she was having sex with that she tried to get pregnant with, he was, he had schizophrenia. So he was like doing stuff other than just like mental disorders. Like he was crazy.

[A]

Way to choose a daddy, your kid.

[B]

Yeah. Well, Jesus, she can change him. Brett. Oh yeah. That's every girl's dream.

[D]

Good chemistry.

[B]

Yeah. Either way, he was underage and she was a teacher. It's bad no matter what. Try to get knocked up by him. He must have been pretty reasonable as a boyfriend. You know, she wanted to stick around for a lifetime with this guy. Exactly. The best grab out of the crop area. But you can try it if you want.

[D]

Here's a list of actors who tricked us with fake junk or tatas in movies. Mark Wahlberg, not on the list. It should be for his fake 13 incher from Boogie Nights.

[B]

He admitted it was fake.

[D]

Margaret Qualley, She Wrote. Or fake boobs and substance.

[B]

Substance. And they look phenomenal.

[D]

The director wanted her to look Jessica Rabbit.

[B]

It was pretty great.

[D]

Bill Skarsgard wore fake junk playing Count Orlok in Nosferatu.

[B]

Yep.

[D]

John Hamm. I remember that one. He pierced nipples in Fargo.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[D]

Theo James. He wore fake junk for White Lotus season two. Lily James.

[B]

Oh, she was a Pam Anderson. She wore the best fake boobs I've ever seen in my life.

[D]

And the Pam and Tommy Lee. Or just Pam and Tommy.

[B]

Tommy Lee's not. That's Tommy Lee Jones, you know. Yeah, yeah. Bam. And Pamela Lee and Tommy Lee Jones. I just want to have sex with her, that's all. Somebody gave me a break on her.

[D]

He honks it. Honks the boat horn.

[B]

That's how you honk horn with a dick. Pam, I can get this done. All you gotta do is ask.

[D]

Speaking of Motley Crue, Vince Neil suffered a stroke last Christmas. That's why they canceled their Las Vegas residency earlier this year.

[B]

Keep him away from the buffets.

[D]

Said his whole left side went out. I had to learn to walk again.

[B]

That's over £400 of a side of beef. It is a side of Vince beef.

[D]

He says he's back 90 to 95%.

[B]

Well, good. I think I witnessed some of his stroke last time. Somebody sent me a video of them on stage trying to sing.

[D]

Well, it kicked off their Las Vegas residency this past Friday.

[B]

That's good that he's back through October.

[D]

3Rd if you want to check him out.

[B]

That's good.

[D]

Limp Bizkit has a new song. Making Love to Morgan Wallen is the name of the track.

[B]

It's a weird title, but it's actually very good. Biscuity song. It sounds limp Biscuit, you know. Yeah. You know who's doing it for sure.

[D]

And then I said this earlier this morning, but the who announced their final show, North America, and It'll take place October 1st at the Acresture arena in Palm Desert.

[B]

Oh, Palm Desert. They're gonna do it in Palm Springs. Their last show.

[A]

It's a retirement area.

[B]

I guess they're hitting their is right.

[D]

In the wheelhouse, I suppose, but.

[B]

That'S weird. When is it?

[D]

October 1st.

[B]

Their last show's in three weeks.

[D]

Yeah. The Farewell Tour.

[B]

Well, that's a pretty big farewell tour. It's one show.

[D]

Well, no, I guess they've been touring right now, and this is the last show in October.

[B]

Did you see the who when they were here, or just Roger?

[A]

Couple years ago I did.

[B]

Oh, okay.

[A]

Was the who. Well, it was, you know, the two of them.

[B]

Right. Just Pete and. Interesting.

[D]

I guess. Congratulations to Sean Astin. He's the new SAG AFTRA president.

[B]

Oh. Samwise Ganges is the SAG AFTRA Press. Did you watch any of the Emmys last night?

[D]

Just the opener.

[B]

The opening award was Red carpet special.

[D]

No, the first one. First presentation, which was. I always forget her name.

[B]

Stifler's mom, Jennifer. Now I can't remember his mom.

[A]

That's all.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Fourth of July. The. Yeah. Like so many.

[D]

Intro. Nate.

[B]

Nate's fine. He wasn't that funny. And it disappoints me because I love Nate. And then they drove that joke into the ground of taking money away from the Boys and Girls Club, which at first is, okay, I get it. But it couldn't be that. It was the joke all night, and then you just knew deep down that there was. They would never not give money. So at the end, they gave 350,000 to the boys and Girls Club, and you're like, that's nice.

[D]

They said CBS stepped in for 100k.

[B]

And Nate did 250, which is great, but that was also part of his contract. Tim Apple sitting there at 350,000 for the boys and Girls Club. When you've got that much money in a room, that's nice. But, you know, step it up.

[D]

Pull that crowd together.

[B]

Yeah. Put. Yeah, everybody gives 100 grand. That would be awesome. And not all of them can do it, but everybody who could, because there's a couple people in there that's dropping the bucket. But, yeah, Seth Rogen was the big winner, so they killed it. And I have. I couldn't sit through the whole show. The pit, I've never seen. I hear that's great. And then adolescence was the other big winner.

[D]

Then imagine the Colbert got the.

[B]

Oh, that got annoying. Look, Stephen Colbert was fired. You may not like it, but he was fired. If it was a move politically to silence him, they wouldn't have kept him on for the last 10 months. You get. You're fired, and we got to keep you silent. You've got till May. Well, now you told him. And everybody's like, oh, it was a political move. And CBS did this because of their lawsuit with that and the merger and all this. No, they just chose not to do it anymore. It may be a bad move financially, but he's become this victim. Plenty of people get fired every day and there's no real reason for it, but they don't give you 10 months to think about it.

[D]

Look, we can absorb this 20 million loss, right?

[B]

Right. Well, it's not that whatever they're making money on the show, it's just the numbers are going down. They always say that this is what you have to pay attention. Like it make it lost $40 million. No, it didn't. It made like 300 million last year and this year it's going to make 230. That's a $70 million loss. They still made money, but CBS is saying, oh, we lost 40 million or we're losing $40 million annually. That means they're, they're seeing the trend point down. And before they start going, all right, let's, let's come up with something else and get out of this before it tanks.

[D]

But they're being proactive when you're saying that they can come up with something that right off the bat that would make more than 230 million.

[B]

Infomercials make a fortune on network TV. They can run reruns and do pretty well. But if they're, if they're anticipating a five year, nobody looks at it like tomorrow. They're anticipating a five year run. In the long run, something else will end up making more because the production is going to eventually catch up to the amount.

[D]

And the same with the audience too, has got to be a factor.

[B]

Well, this show right here, eventually, yeah, they're going to start looking. They might be doing it now. Is the juice worth it anymore? Because radio is not doing that well. KUPD is fine, but the other, they got to sustain all the other stuff they're doing. And cbs, Paramount went every direction and a lot of it isn't doing that great. So you cut high cost things to make your, your bottom lines look good. Everybody keeps saying it lost 40 million here, didn't. It wasn't in the red. It's still winning, but it's showing that it's not coming back. That's all. People are dumb and Steve, Whatever, bro.

[D]

Did you see the books?

[B]

Colbert was crying. No, but that's just how things work. You wouldn't have, you would, you'd have fired him immediately. You wouldn't take it. In the next 10 months you'd been like, this is, we're out 40 million. Let's just cut this off right now.

[D]

Let's make our 200 mil and call it a day.

[B]

Right? They're gonna just make this and come up with a plan in the next 10 months. It's 10:10. We're all done. You guys have yourselves a grand Monday, and we'll see you tomorrow right here in the morning sickness. Arizona's most powerful powerful rock radio station updated.
