Still streaming, Homberg's morning sickness online@98kupd.com Good morning everybody. Hello there. Welcome to victory Monday. It is the morning sickness. My name's John. There's Brady, there's Brett, there's big Dick Toledo. And yeah, it's victory Monday and it feels good once again. Sunday's behind us. You got one. Yes. Brett and I barely covered our, our Thursday morning bets with Hella Stray. We've got our ends in. You got the Bears. You picked them. Skinnier teeth. Good win. My Steelers beat the Vikings, as I said and expected. And then Dale picked against his Cowboys and what the. Was that a tie. They got to come up with something that's ridiculous and can't have ties even when the players don't know. George Pickens at the end of the game was like, you can have ties. He said that. I didn't know you could tie. Yep, there's ties. College stinks. Their system, I think is stupid. It's like everybody gets a chance.
Brady
Well, at the end it's, it's a, it's terrible. And then it's nothing but two point conversion.
John Holmberg
Gets to try two point conversions. Then you get to try and you get to try.
Brady
You fail.
John Holmberg
I like sudden death. I miss sudden death. Everybody's like, but why doesn't everyone get to touch the ball? Well, Bernie Sanders, because that's not how life works. And sometimes you get by the coin toss and then you've got a defense, right? It's not like the team automatically just goes out and gets points. But if I don't have a chance to play offense, then I don't have a chance to win. Well, in order to earn a chance to play offense, stop the team with your defense. If you give up the no field goals, though, you have to score a touchdown that you can't do it. You got to score a touchdown. That's. And then. So your defense is part of it. Sudden death was the best. The only problem I had with it is now. Now especially Everybody can kick 90 yard field goals. It. You know you can't have field goals. But if you go down there and do the. Hey, you have a chance to stop them. I didn't. I never understood that. How come we never get a chance? Do you not put a defense on the field? Is that. Isn't that half of your team? Aren't they responsible for keeping it a tie too? If they can't stop them, root for that coin toss then. Better do some adjusting as coaches to make sure that team doesn't march down the field on you. But yeah, I'm not a fan of the college system because it's just. And then I really hate the college system. Be like, oh, it took eight overtimes. No, it didn't. It was eight series. It's practice. You're watching drills can be kind of exciting, but it's like a free throw shooting contest. But ties. Whatever college is doing is better than a tie. That's for sure. Garbage.
Brady
Yeah. No ties.
John Holmberg
No ties. You can't have ties. So screwed up our whole bat last night. Well, not my part. I had a 14 leg parlay. Oh. And I had hit every game during the day except the damn Giants and Chargers. So I wasn't that upset. So I'm just waiting for all of those checks to go green on the left side of my deal after last night. And just look at that one single X next to the Giants and Chargers which no one saw coming. And thank God it was a. It was a zeroed out on the. I didn't have that one either. That was a lock last night. Two weeks in a row the packers have. Have wrecked. That's the bed, suicide pools and all that other stuff. So it was pretty nice. Yeah. Yeah. You got no problem with it? No, not at all. Likes it. And he gets to, you know your Bears win. You have that moment that I have when the Ravens. You had your Bears win yester and the packers tied, which is even better. It's like George Jefferson walking into that apartment building at the beginning. I'm just like strutting the Conor McGregor just going right to it. It was. It's just. Damn it, Brett. You're gonna. We're doing it again. I can't. Come on. I know. You start dancing. Football is great. I also like that while the Steelers were in Ireland, their third string quarterback who's injured anyway? Was having a N in Dublin and they looked. He got mugged. They stole his wallet. And I know exactly why. Because they were like, what you doing out on our streets there? Oh, don't mind me. I'm just a quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Brady
Oh, yeah?
John Holmberg
I never heard of you. What's your name? Skyler Thompson. Get him, boys. He's an easy Marcus named Skyler. Ain't nobody fights back named Skyler. And they took his wallet right before, which makes me giggle. It was a Sunday going into the morning. So he's out for a morning stroll. It's working his hamstring.
Brady
They scratched me.
John Holmberg
There's some guy outside says he plays American football called Skyler. Ah, he's not half a man out there doing his thing, but he ain't no Skyler at all. We took him down, here's his wallet and sure enough, his license says his name is Skyler. His mother and father named him that. No, stop laughing, guys. No, I know, it's fact. I know. And he's actually got some money. His wallet had some Irish money in it, some disgusting euros. Anyway, yeah, it was great. International games absolutely suck something. Fear 6am Star 6:30. But still, it's just awful. And that's what I said this a couple years ago. And I'm like, oh, 17 game, unbalanced schedule. The NFL is kind of like, oh, we're going to have more games. What they're doing is getting you used to one of your team's home games being international. So you'll still get eight at home and eight on the road and then one some wacky destination. That's going to be the deal from here on out. I can like. They got so excited about Ireland. It was the first time anybody had ever played in Ireland and the place was just packed and like outside was crazy. So they're like, oh boy. Then they're talking about Australia, which is insane because that'll be on midnight here. And then you got, you know, you got all sorts of crazy. But that one extra game is going to be a floater for international play. And boy, are they heavy handing this international deal. Even last night you could hear everybody over the age of 47, everybody when they heard who the halftime show is for Super Bowl 6. And they're like, who the Bad Bunny? Like that was the whole announcement to 45 plus year old people. I like Bad Bunny. I don't. I like him as a person. I think he's funny. Like I've seen him do stuff.
Brady
He's an actor.
John Holmberg
Saturday Night Live. He's funny. And the movies he does, he's fun. He's like, got good charisma. He's charismatic and very his. Me, I prefer my music to be in English. Unless it's Rammstein, because I know what they're singing about is horrific. Like, if, if he was thinking. If Bad Bunny, it turns out, was thinking about cannibalism or, or some sort of strange home abortions, like the way Ramstein does, I'd be like, what's he up to? But he sings about love and I got enough of that cart. Yeah, well, if that was a thing. If it was like butchering, you know, and you're like, wow, Peso pluma knows how to get it done. Like, these dudes sing some crazy stuff. He sings about love and I've got English love. I can turn on anything I want. And English love comes out. I don't need that. I don't need Spanish love. Amore, he's got it. But baboni, he's going to be hatang. It's a baboni hatang, which makes me go, oh, more international stuff.
Brady
And they're throwing it out there like Taylor Swift handed it to him. She turned it down.
John Holmberg
Fine by Bonnie.
Brady
Whatever her reasons were. You know, she's like, she knows what a big deal, what she would bring by doing the halftime. I don't want to do it for free.
John Holmberg
Look, she's, she's, yeah, she's a businesswoman. She's got it figured out. And she didn't have the, you know, look, they have options. I must have got. And here's the, here's. I'm going to hear it on my emails. I'm going to hear. I heard it on my text last night when friends fired over Bad Bunny, what the NFL doing. And I'm like, they're marketing to everybody but you. They've got you. They don't. They don't need to market to you. What about Mattel? Everybody likes Metallica, acdc. These guys are filling stadiums all over the world. Like, yeah, but they've. They've already got you. Remember, the super bowl has a billion people watching. That doesn't happen week to week. There are mostly fans who kind of pay attention to just that game. And that's who they're marketing. Women, young people. They're trying to win over the people that don't do what we do, which is wake up at six in the morning to watch your favorite team decorate a room in your house. They're Trying to get those people interested. And Bad Bunny is exactly how they do that. So save your finger time pounding on a keyboard, screaming out, what about Metallica? I mean, it's in San Francisco. They. They'll go, no, that's not mass appeal. Metallica is not mass appeal. Whatever. No, it isn't. It's already won itself a space. They're not going to do that again. If anything, they would do like a years from now, a retro thing and Metallica would come out and do a song, and then you'd have, like, AC DC do a song. And they would be doing it with, like, Sabrina Carpenter and, you know, Billie Eilish. They're gonna do it with people who are. And Billie Eilish is getting to the point now where it's like maybe a little long in the tooth for the super bowl halftime show. Baloney.
Brady
In a way, they'll have the Kateras, too. And just. Because when it's happening, I gotta check this out.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah, Enough to bitch about it. We're gonna watch.
Brady
And then the hate even more.
John Holmberg
But it doesn't have anything. It doesn't have a thing to do with you watching the halftime show. Yeah, it's people who get a positive vibe on n experiences. So then they check in again next year or they have a feeling like, man, that super bowl is amazing. And they start thinking about football and they start. You know, they just want. Especially in Mexico, where they're gonna have a team in the next 10 years there. There's definitely this hey, we're paying attention to you kind of thing. It's like, it makes. You know, people always say that. We don't know it because we're white, but you know how people always say that it was nice to see somebody who looks like me on screen doing something. Black people always say it. Mexican people always say, it's like, it was just nice to see women. They always say, someone representing me. Bad Bunny is that Bad Bunny's gonna make all these kids in Mexico that are kind of meh. I don't know if the NFL cares. They just kind of traipse these. It's going to make them go, where's art? We're part of it.
Brady
We're ready.
John Holmberg
We're part of it. And it's going to be huge. A lot of times there's a spike in the ratings for the NFL halftime show. And that would be a bunch of people internationally looking at this thing as well. So, yeah, the Bad Bunny thing has got. You got to shut up. Finally shut up about Whether or not your favorite band's ever going to play the super bowl, because they're not. We always pick some crappy pop artists. Yep, it's mass appeal. It's easy. You don't lose women. I hate to break it to you, but young women are not going to watch Guns N Roses and think this is awesome. They're going to laugh at it. A bunch of transvestites on stage screaming at them. That's not what they listen to. They don't like it. They don't like that. Proof, proof is in the research. They just don't. I actually was told by Katero it was like, you got Maiden, you got. I mean, you could do a classic retrospective of me. Like who knew is coming to the party with that? Like, tell me what group of people other than maybe eight or nine gays who are into the Judas Priest, if they showed up. You're not getting anybody new. That's how you've already got the 50 plus year old male. There's no reason to market to them. They hate. They hate market. They spending money on people you've already got. That's dumb. So Baboni makes the most sense. I have no idea how it's gonna go over, but I guarantee you the complaining from white men in America is going to be unbelievable. February 9, 2026. It's going to be unbelievable. You got this up there. Screaming and yelling in Spanish the whole time. I wanted ICE agents to come get him off the stage. Like, yeah, okay, this is. I get it. No, what are your journeys from Journey from San Francisco. Get them up there. Nope, Nope, nope. That's 65 year old white men and women and they've already got them. So. No.
Brady
Well, I think the future is AI games. They're going to phase out. Yeah, it's not going to be.
John Holmberg
I would, I would hope that's not true, but I can see that there probably would be eventually AI football, where everybody's got like nine fingers and like a snail like shell on their back for no reason sometimes. Yeah, it's weird. It's definitely a thing. But the bad bunny argument, and I've already gotten a couple I saw earlier. I didn't even read them the bad bunny question mark. I'm like, yep. You guys got to understand that the NFL, well, I know it. They do not care about you after you're 40. They go, Gotcha. What's next? They're always thinking about the next generation and they're great at it. They are great at it. Cause you ain't going anywhere. Neither am I. But they're no longer gonna point the light on you. You're gone. They already got you. Way back in the day when they had Diana Ross as the halftime show and they didn't know what they were doing. Oh, that whole Motown thing. Yeah, yeah. It was like, huh? And Michael Jackson did it. And they're like, we can make this kind of a worldwide spectacle. What are we doing with flag twirlers? And then they got the big money from Apple and Pepsi and everybody else, and they're like, just make it. Make it so internationally it counts. And that's who really matters, is Apple. ITunes goes through the moon every halftime show. You're gonna see so many Bad Bunny downloads, it's ridiculous. And by the way, to all us stubborn, he's pretty good at what he does. Like, I went to a tequila bar downtown about two years ago, and I didn't realize Baboni was playing the arena.
Brady
Oh, yeah, you're so just.
John Holmberg
Oh, the streets were filled, packed with Baboni fans. And I'm like, who the. What the is bad Bonnie? And I would ask people, who's the concert tonight? And that's why I say how I say it. I didn't hear one person say, it's Bad Bunny. I heard Baboni. Like, what are they saying? Steve Balboni, former third baseman for the Royals, who's playing. How did he get such an Internet? And low riders are cruising by, and I'm like, all right, we're going to get stabbed. So as the show went on, went up to a place called Barcoa, which is awesome. It's in the basement of what used to be the lavage building next to the old Brady Zone. And it is a great tequila bar, and their drinks are outstanding. And it's a cool little, like, speakeasy. And inside, I'm shazaming every song. Who's this Babboni? Next one. I'm like, who's this? These are good. Bad Bony. I'm like, it's all bad bony. And that's when I realized, oh, those people are saying Bad Bunny. Do you remember us asking who's playing? And they kept saying, baboony. It's Bad Bunny in English. And he's pretty good. I can't listen to it because I like to scream along. I don't know what the hell. He's saying something in Spanish, but he's going to do a Hot Tang show, the Baboon. And I don't know if this means Devin Booker is going to break up with Kendall Jenner again. And she's going to go back to Baboni.
Brady
He's going to bring some guests too.
John Holmberg
Oh, sure, international ones. There's going to be some people up there. It's going to be a. It's going to be a cavalcade of people in their 20s on the halftime stage winning over people in their 20s. That's just how it's going to be. And world said, this is bull. I filmed them. Metallica, like, you're never going to see it. It's not going to happen. If you do, it'll be a weird little one off. It'll be a side thing and people like, oh, cool. And they can't play a whole halftime show. It just can't. But yeah, this guy points it out, he goes, anything's better than Lady Gaga's beer gut. And I agree with that one. That was a tough one to watch. She didn't even do any sit ups or get ready. You don't remember that was in Houston.
Brady
Jumped off the roof.
John Holmberg
She jumped off the roof and then splattered down and her big jello belly was rolling all over and she had those tights on. I'm like, did you not know you were doing this, like weeks ago? Couldn't you get in fighting shape for this thing? Pretty chunky. At the very least, cover it up. Don't act like, you know, you never watch, like when fighters, women always get mad at men when we say that too. I remember that was when I kept saying, Lady Gaga's fat. That's mean. Did you hear me last boxing match? I watched and I'm like, oh, the guy's terrible shape. He's fat. It's like you point out when people are fat and boxers hit the ring and they're fat, you say so. It's like, oh, he's gonna have dropped ufc. He's like, oh, Jon Jones didn't work as hard as camp. Didn't go, well, he's fat. She might have seven or eight extra pounds. Yeah, it's fat. We don't want to do that. She's seven or eight extra pounds on a woman. Her size is like 10% of her body. That's a big fat pig now. Now you put it that way. She's El Gordo to Babon, but we'll see. But yeah, stop thinking that you're going to be the NFL's target ever again, because you're not. And that's so sad. This guy said, did you just call Guns N Roses transvestites I'm not saying they're transvestites, but that's what young people would see if they were on stage. Because if you've seen Axl Rose lately, he's everybody's grandmother's aunt. Like the grandma's sisters. Grandma always had that lesbian sister. There's a lot of those that had that weird sister that didn't have a husband anymore. Like, I either left or died early. And she got her hair cut real weird, and it was red. That was, you know, Aunt Grace. And she'd come over for Thanksgiving and never really got comfortable with her. And sometimes she had a leather coat on.
Brady
Went beyond the Miss Hathaway from Beverly Hills.
John Holmberg
You kind of had that. Is that what's going on with Aunt Grace's hair? That's what Axel looks like to people who are young. Lesbian, Grandma's aunt or sister. Aunt Grace Hol. Morning sickness. Holg's morning sickness. Slash is just a strange one. And the other guys are nothing to look at. Not good for tv. I like Guns N Roses. I love Guns N Roses. But I also know what young people would see if we surprised him on halftime with Guns N Roses. And it's a lesbian woman in her 60s, 70s. It's. They're not gonna want to see that. Have you seen Kirk Hammett yet? Metallica fans recently? It's not going real well. He looks a little bit like the. The mad scientist that was in. What was that movie? The one with the Will Smith and the aliens and stuff. They flew up in the Mac Pro. Independence Day. Yeah, Independence Day. Remember? Brett Spiner had the. He had that gray wig on and he was the mad scientist. That's what Kirk turned into.
Brady
Amazing. You knew his name.
John Holmberg
Yeah, Brett Spiner from Star Trek. And then you have Lars, who looks a little bit like a progeria child at this point. He's either 25 or he's 119. You can't tell.
Brady
Starting to look like his old man.
John Holmberg
James is the only one that looks good. He does. He looks a lot like that old. That old Led Zeppelin cover album guy with the sticks. And Robert still looks good. Robert looks good. Yeah. Yeah. Robert's aged well, but he's the youngest of them, I think. Yeah, those are 18. But even still a little scary for the average 22 year old to see. A menacing Mexican and, you know, a mad scientist with guitars. They don't want to see that stuff. You can rattle off all the things you want to super half. You look at the list. I mean, it's been rocking and years. I mean, Kendrick, Usher, Rihanna, it's what.
Brady
Gets Snoop Doggy Dog.
John Holmberg
That was okay. That was great weekend. It was a throwback to what they wanted to do. That was huge pop stuff. That was a great halftime show because it somehow or another got the young people and the old people to all agree on something that doesn't occur. Metallica would not be the case. I had a guy tell me, allison, you love Alice in Chains. Texting last night. You love Alison Chains. Why can't they do it? Like, first off, one of them's dead. They're not big enough anymore. Yeah. They're nowhere near it. And I'm like, can you imagine? It would sound like a beehive to people in their 20s if all of a sudden, just like, all this Alice in Chains droning music goes out there. No, I think the last major rock one was probably when the Chili Peppers were with Bruno. Yeah. I mean, the whole. When was that? 2010. That's been a minute. And Springsteen before that. Tom Petty. I was at the Springsteen one. Prince. That was down there in Tampa. Stones, See, they were rolling all the old Stones one, too. Stones and Springsteen were. And then the one I was at was Guns N Roses. I think Slash was with the Black Eyed Peas when I was the one in Dallas. And I walked. I went and got beer. It was the greatest time to get beer. If you're ever at a Super bowl, walk out. Like, the halftime. I would leave the baboni and I'd go get myself a drink because the place doesn't budge. Everybody's in their seats for half your merch. Yeah, I didn't care. I. Black Eyed Peas, I'm like, let's get retarded. I was offended. I went and got a beer. I. Walking around, you can still see it. That screen there was huge. Anyway, I got other fish to fry. The Mercury are in the championship. They won. Those emails are flying in right now. That is. Those broads ended up making it. I got. I don't know how many games they play in girl basketball for the finals, but I hope. I don't know who they're playing. Who is it? I'll look it up. The toxic shock.
Brady
They're playing that one team in the finals.
John Holmberg
The other girls. Yeah, the team full of girls. I'm like, well, it seems like when you say it that way, they're going to win. But then you got to remember that they're also a team full of girls.
Brady
Playing the New Jersey Generals.
John Holmberg
No, that was a different league. Altogether in different era. I think it's the Detroit Toxic Shock that used to be a team. I added the toxic part, but they called them the shock, which. It's either the Fever or the Aces. Oh, geez. It's come down to the Indiana Fever and all their injuries, but they're going to game five. Yeah, they're taking it all the way to the right now. And they only play five of them because they can't play seven. They're women.
Brady
Seven. Only in the finals.
John Holmberg
Is it a finals is seven. Oh, man. All right. Series begins October 3rd. Go Fever or Aces. Man, is that league well marketed. Let's start our finals during baseball playoffs. And footballs, you know, like right in the heart of the beginning of the season. Geniuses they are.
Brady
Let me give you a situation that happened last night, if you can. I'll give you an option. You're a parent.
John Holmberg
All right, I'm out.
Brady
Yeah, well, but you have to. You have an option here. You're a parent.
John Holmberg
Oh, regardless. I don't. That's not my option.
Brady
Yeah, and you have an option that your mother in law will watch the kids and you get a night off. But your night off is courtside at the Mercury.
John Holmberg
No, I go to work. I was hanging out with the kids. Yeah, I'd do some yard work. I might build something. Cheese, grate my feet.
Brady
Neighbor's sister went to the game with her. Her dad goes to all the games and he sits courtside.
John Holmberg
Her dad's a lesbian. I didn't know that was a thing. He goes option.
Brady
You know what? I get a night off without watching the.
John Holmberg
That's how much people hate their kids.
Brady
You get it.
John Holmberg
Wow. You know, I've. I've been. I've been a proponent of saying I see through the ruse of parents talking about how much they love their children and everything else, but every chance they get, they try to leave them. They just know they're legally not allowed to stay forever. Except for Toledo's dad. Still know how he got away with that. But Mercury game is a bridge too far. Basically saying anything except that bag of carbon mass that cries and screams at me all the time. I'll go sit at a Mercury game for three hours and consider it a day off. Yuck. Who is this?
Brady
She hung out most of the time back in the. Where the food beverage was. You sit on the courtside seat.
John Holmberg
Sure. She went down to the club. Yeah, I don't think they go crazy like they do for son's game. She might have some hot dogs and a Beer down there. But the clubs, they amp it up for.
Brady
Yeah. And you can still watch down there.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Why would you do that? Why would you ask?
Brady
I was just thinking about that. Your option is you get a night off.
John Holmberg
You know what?
Brady
But you're going.
John Holmberg
Brett will back me up on this. That's the first time I've ever thought, nah, the kid's not so bad. I'll hang out with him. Yeah. Parents hate their kids. I'm tired of hearing that. I live in the birth of my child. This is the best day. The birth of your child wasn't so great. That looked like a bloody, horrible mess. And then every chance you get, all I hear you saying is, we got to get away from this thing. She's driving me insane. Mercury game.
Brady
I knew what your answers would be.
John Holmberg
My answer would not be, go to that. I mean, you're borderline like, John. You're a parent. Here are your options. You get to relive a day in Auschwitz, or you can go to a Mercury game. I'm like, geez, well, what time's the training?
Brady
We could close out the series.
John Holmberg
You got a train from Phoenix to Auschwitz. Okay, that's kind of neat. All aboard. Gotta go. You can run alongside and wish me luck. I mean, I get to come back. That's the good news of this. It's a fake trip, but, yeah. No Mercury game as a plus. Never. And what's that lady's dad doing there? Does he go alone every game?
Brady
That's what I was saying.
John Holmberg
What? He. If she didn't go, he's lying to his wife.
Brady
No, his wife would have to go.
John Holmberg
He's lying to his wife, so the.
Brady
Wife got to watch the baby.
John Holmberg
Okay, this might be the most ultimate dude ever. He has figured out the greatest affair pattern I've ever seen in my life. Or he married the dumbest broad. Well, she's saying, I'm not going to that crap. Well, I really love basketball. You know me. I know. I know. So I bought season tickets to the Mercury, knowing that no one's ever gonna say, how they doing? Did you go to the game last night? Did you see that play? He's never gonna answer a question, so he disappears on Mercury home game nights, does whatever he wants with whomever he wants, and occasionally just has to, you know, grab somebody and go with and say, see? Yeah, I really go. Nobody's watching the games on. He can't get caught doing anything bad. I would venture to guess he's having a gay affair. This is the best way to get away with anything. Buy Mercury tickets and ask your family if they want to go. They'll say no every time. Well, I'm going, even if I have to go by myself. Fine. Idiot. Who's the idiot? As he drives off to his house. Yeah, they got. I got three hours to kill. They think I'm in a Mercury game. They believe that. I know. It's crazy.
Brady
The problem is he's courtside.
John Holmberg
So, you know, you don't. No, you don't. No one watches it.
Brady
He's in, but I'm saying televised. You're right. No one watch it.
John Holmberg
They could televise it. They could have it, live in your house and no one would notice. But she's buying it.
Brady
That's why.
John Holmberg
But again, the risk she runs is not buying it. And she's got to prove him right by going to one of those games. I'd rather be in the middle of an affair.
Brady
She's got five of them.
John Holmberg
Yeah, well, she. That wife of his hopes he's having an affair so she doesn't get trapped in one of these Mercury games. I thought you were having an affair. This whole time you've been going to Mercury games? Yes. You son of a bitch. I thought you had a whore on the side. Everything was fine. Nope. Incredible. Now that guy, kudos to him. Men have been trying to figure out ways to make their wives not pay attention to him two or three hours a day for years. And that dude came up with the ultimate plan. Pull this pin and give it to somebody that's a grenade of. I don't want to do it. So anyway, I'm gonna leave tonight. Where are you going? Your Mercury game? Uh, no. I'm having an affair. Oh, I bet you're going to that Mercury game, aren't you? People are gonna talk about us. It's great. That dude's got it. And all you had to do was go see. Tell your mother we went to the game together. This is great. Mom would rather watch a baby than go to the Mercury game. This dude's in. I don't know who these people are, but I want to shake that man's hand.
Brady
It's a noon start.
John Holmberg
Yeah, gotta get there at noon. That's a strange Wednesday time. I know. Anyway, check it out on TV if you want. I'm not going to look for you. All right, I'll see you at 5. He comes back all tired. That Mercury game really wore you out. You have no idea. I need to take a. I need to take a sits bath. If you haven't had some salt. My legs are on fire. No, we were cheering pretty hard. I was up and down and up and down. And then all you have to do is say, I watched the Mercury game. Oh, yeah, I didn't see you once. Oh, we were down in that club. Oh. Anyway, it wouldn't be hard. I mean, there's not that many people there. This is genius. I don't know who this man is, but today when I give him his crown after I buy it at Mo Money Pond, I'm sure they've got a crown over there. That man is brilliant. And then his daughter tags along with him one time and comes back, mom, if you ever worried about dad being and having an affair, you're wrong. I actually went. He goes to these things. Yeah, yeah, no, I'm there. You go to a few of them. You hobnob with the people.
Brady
Who knows, for her, for the mom, it's like, oh, thank you for going.
John Holmberg
Yeah. And here's the other thing. The lesbians that sit by him don't want to get to know the dude in the front row. They hate him. Like he. He's nothing. I mean, it's almost Ashley Madison. They should market it that way. Guys looking for a way to get out. Nobody's ever going to look for you. Buy Mercury season tickets. Not a soul will ever know you're there. I mean, you can even tell them, here's where I'm sitting. Here's where I am. Look for me on tv. They're not going to turn on that game. Nobody. Wasn't somebody saying a ballplayer or whatever saying to bang the fatties on the road because nobody wants to. Exactly. Mark Grace. Yep. You can't get Coldplay to Mercury game. He probably just throw both fingers in the air that were just. And just start making out with his squish. There is like, well, don't worry about it. No one's going to see this. And the only people who did are a bunch of lesbians who aren't at my house. Anyway. This is great, Ray Allen. I could bang you at center court and it would make espn. And even when they say tonight in a Mercury game, it would just turn off espn, no one would see it. It's like being invisible. This guy's genius, Brady. Brilliant. And he gets out of babysitting kids. Oh, my God. I don't know who this marketing. He's a madman. And I'm gonna see him. I'm gonna Larry David him, too. You're the mer we go, huh? Oh, yeah. No, I got season tickets. I love what you're doing. Excellent work. I know. I know exactly what's going on.
Brady
I got a joke for you.
John Holmberg
You're not. You're not going to any Mercury games. I know what you're doing. You're. You're. I just want to meet the lady you're doing it with, that's all. I don't know what you're talking about, sir. Wait. Come on. We know what you're doing. Pretty. Pretty brilliant.
Brady
Even goes on the road game.
John Holmberg
He said you had to do another roadie. Well, I'm not going. Come on, honey. Please? Never. All right. I'll go alone. This marriage is in big trouble. Cause of you. Genius. Second best thing. Unless you're like having an affair with like a. You know, an ice target or something like that. Them Rising games wouldn't be a bad idea either. Get on that deal. Front row seats to the Rising. Who's with me? Oh, God. Tom. I don't want to do this.
Brady
All right.
John Holmberg
I'll go alone. Never. Ever. And all you have to do is ask your phone. Who won the Rising game? Rising tied with Salt Lake FC 1 1. And every time you come home, it's like that was another tie. You sit through all those games, they're all tied. Yeah, it was a soccer thing. It's 1 1. It's a draw.
Brady
Nil. Nil, actually.
John Holmberg
Your phone would say. Who cares? Hey, your phone. Be like, are you sure? Are you sure? Yes, but be sure. You want to go to this website. I don't know. I need to know.
Brady
You're getting a lot of texts from Phoenix Rising.
John Holmberg
Tons of them. They're big on their fan base. They treat us right. Why does the Rising send you nudes? I don't know.
Brady
You're going to dinner.
John Holmberg
It's a different sport. It's European. Excellent work, dude. That. I see some Jesse Smollett in that guy's life. That's pretty good stuff, man. Now, we talked about that with Skyler Thompson. The Steelers wanted around Dublin 3 in the morning. They had walkthroughs early in the morning on Saturday. I knew that from the Steelers schedule that I followed that I keep an eye on. So Saturday when they got. They were Dublin Friday and they've got to play Friday night. And then they had to get up really early as kind of a punishment say, all right, if you guys are going to dick around here, you got to be to bed at like nine and you just got jet lagged. So we got a meeting at 5am the next day here, Saturday. And then Skyler was wandering around Saturday into Sunday. So it's technically Sunday morning at 3am again. So maybe it was just time, time was off or whatever. But if you think about it, 3am In Ireland it's happy hour is only like 11 at night. In Pittsburgh or something it's like five hours, four hours, something like that. So it wasn't like he was wanting wandering the strange streets of a major city in the middle of the night and then got jumped. There's a little Jussie Smollett there too. What was a dude, most guys named Skyler wandering around the middle of a night of a major city trolling for? I think. So he's a Steeler, but I still know his name is Skyler. And Skylers don't wander around doing things that are on the up and up. They wander around looking for D. That's a Skyler move right there. You don't have a whole lot of Skylers going. Yeah, bunch of chicks waiting for me. All right, Skyler, back of the car. Anyway, sounded like he resisted a little bit. Skyler, they said he's. Oh, he got, he got beat up. Wasn't about resisting. It's like dudes just jumped. Yeah, Skyler didn't.
Brady
I think he confronted him.
John Holmberg
Yeah, hi, my name's Skyler.
Brady
Do you guys suck?
John Holmberg
What?
Brady
For cash?
John Holmberg
The hell are you talking about? For Irish. We fight for cash and then we. He didn't want to be a bottom. No, his ass kicked. That's right. You guys are all like a little bunch of Conor McGregor's. You know what, Skyler, Ibot had it with you. I think we take care of him. My old boxing trainer Ray used to tell me that they would hear an American accent and they'd be like, all right, follow him home.
Brady
Want to pick up some quick, quick.
John Holmberg
Find some quick money as the guy to do it with. And they'd, you know, follow them into bathrooms and whatever. Where are you from? We're from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, usa. Oh yeah, that sounds like a nice place. Got a lot of money over there. Well, we're Americans. We always say, okay, let's kill Skyler in the bathroom. You don't wander around Dublin at three in the morning unless you're up to no good. Get to your room. Skyler.
Brady
Couldn't sleep.
John Holmberg
Just it was the time change and I was lagged. All these little pale faced midgets wandering around. I just thought it was adorable. Called me pale face midget one more time. I'm gonna take your outer wallet at 6:21. Let's get a wake up song, shall we? 5859 800. While I contemplate whether or not to buy Aces Gear or Fever Gear and try to. I'll buy a Sophie Cunningham shirt. She plays for them Fevers. I don't know if she's still playing. She's been injured every time.
Brady
I think she's out for the season.
John Holmberg
Is she out too? The whole season. I see her in street clothes all the time, dancing and stuff, doing a bunch of commercials. Then I turn it. You can still do commercials and not be injured though.
Brady
That's true. There's enough time.
John Holmberg
I did a commercial last week with Doug Hopkins on Wednesday. It aired yesterday. It took me about eight minutes. We did four. It's not hard. If you can read, you can do a commercial. It's not that tough. So Sophie. And Sophie don't even try in her commercials. She's just a pair of Lululemons in a.
Brady
You're fine.
John Holmberg
Yeah, she. You look fine. Put. Just comb your hair and you're good. Did I get those lines right? Doesn't matter. Yeah, it doesn't matter. You look good. Attention. I don't even know what she's like student loan debt or something. I don't even know what commercial she's doing. It's let's get that wake up song. 585-9800. We'll scream it together. It's 98K video. Wake up. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect and he can you take. Still streaming. Homberg's morning sickness online@98kupd.com thank you. Miles to nowhere. That is Katie and the Hobbs. Yesterday morning I was up watching football at this time. That's the only thing I don't like about them international games. Other than that I don't care. I don't care where it is. It's not here. So I have to watch it on TV no matter what. But make it reasonable. Those poor people in Hawaii had to start that game at 3:30. Oh, Alaska, Hawaii. They get killed by these things. But that's a market they don't care about either. But still, my God, man. That's more proof that the NFL doesn't care about its fans. They know we're gonna wake up at six in the morning if we're, you know, we're nuts. I'll do it. And the East coast, it's 9am they don't. That's not that bad. Get out here. It's insane. That's bananas, man. But, yeah, people are all over me about the tattoo with the Mercury and starting to get designs. Our own weekender, Johnny Fella, said he's got a good tattoo artist that's one of the best in the city. He's willing to come down into the bill. I'm like, we don't have to worry about that. This team's not going to win a championship. Careful, careful. Come on, Brett. There's no chance. They're girls now. The only thing somebody has to win. I know. That's what I'm saying. You know, even though they're girls. Good point. The only thing keeping me nervous is that this team of girls has to play another team of girls. So God knows what's going to happen. You can't predict this. No. No Vegas gambler has ever been this wrong. They had the Minnesota links as a -400 to win it all. And they get beat by a team that was like a plus 16. Or is it. It was Buster Douglas style up and nobody said, my God, what an upset. Nobody knows. Can they like the packers and the.
Brady
Cowboys last night or what World championship tie.
John Holmberg
Everybody wins. That would be great. I would like to see that. And yes, in fact, we didn't know. But the only person of relevance in the WNBA outside of Caitlin Clark, who we know is not playing, is Sophie Cunningham. And as Mike Tomlin would say, Sophie got a knee, so she's not going to play anymore. So the Fever doing it without their superstars. Imagine that. You don't even need the best player in the league to win a championship because it's girls. Anything can happen if they start sinking periods, Bad days. I mean, that's what happened to the Links. I don't know if. And I would love to hear that in the post game. You know, no excuses out there. We got beat. Better team Phoenix Mercury. But I do have to say that since we synced periods, every third week's been a tough one for this team. And we've really. We struggled and just so happened to hit us right here in the conference finals that we're all. We're all ragging out questions. The whole team on their period. Yeah. There's one that we're not sure why she doesn't have periods, but nobody's asking.
Brady
It's a forfeit. The team needed a personal day.
John Holmberg
Everybody's on the red ir. Can we just get. We just have a me day. The whole team. Yeah. It's the playoffs, you guys. This is toxic. It's a toxic work environment. So I don't know what's going on, but boy, the city's a buzz, isn't it? With mercury fever. Catch it. I'll never stop laughing at it. They were in the championship and nobody knew it. If you had a championship in the forest and it fell and no one was there, would it still count? Yeah. I do have to say I find their championship parades hilarious. So part of me kind of wishes that if I just get a tattoo on my chest, the Phoenix mercury championship in 2025. If there's a parade downtown of teams of tens of people, I go to that. Just boo it. And again, name one.
Brady
Championship.
John Holmberg
No player.
Brady
Oh.
John Holmberg
On a team that's in the championship. Remember when the Suns went to the championship in 2021 and suddenly the ratings went from like nothing to everybody love Chris Paul, Devin Booker, deandre Ayton, the Twins. You had campaign who looks like Rat Boy and people liked him. And you knew the coaches names, you knew everybody on the teams. Name one because you're a misogynist. No, nobody cares. It's different. You might be right about the thing you accused me of, but also, this product stinks. I like what they're trying to do, which is get that short court, three on three league going for the ladies. Have you seen that? That's gonna be fun. Because the one thing that they're doing in the WNBA that's bad is trying to play on a men's court with men's rims. They already shrunk the ball and scooted the three point lineup. Why are they digging their heels in on the size of the rim? Their game gets better if they lower the rim. Now we play with a men play. I'm like, you've already. You're already not doing that shrink. Bring it down to nine feet.
Brady
Yeah, that would be.
John Holmberg
Why are they so on a 10 foot rim? And also your game looks really slow because we see men running on that same court just blisteringly fast. And then we see you trying to lug up and down. That thing looks like you got, you know, weights on your shoulders. Shrink the court, make it cut a couple of girls off the field there. You get a, you know, three on three and they got this new league coming up. I will watch that. That's going to.
Brady
You never hear that was a cool layout.
John Holmberg
You never hear that.
Brady
No matter how much you do.
John Holmberg
You've never once heard, yes, with a 360 degree layup. Never happens. There's no reason to pirouette on your way to a layup. But you Get a dunk in there. And suddenly it's like, all right. You know, women's tennis knows, like, it's not the size of the court that's screwing them up. It's the length of the matches. You can't go four hours on lady tennis. They do three.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
John, what if you either get the mercury tattoo or have to watch the championship game courtside? I. I have an option courtside. I don't know. Yeah, well, you guys would go to the game just for the comedy factor. I would be in the rah room the whole time, not watching. Is that open during. They have to play pretend. Yeah. They didn't do it the whole season. In the playoffs, they're like, I got a newsletter. I said, all right, we'll open up for a couple of these. We're gonna lose our ass on this. I was there one night with my buddy Anthony. We didn't know there was a Mercury game going on. And everybody. Anthony's just like me. And we're walking down the entrance to the robber room. I forget what. We went there for dinner, I think. I don't remember. But there was a game, and we realized that as we're walking up and the people out for the guys out front that parked the car, like, you guys here for the game? And we're just like, no, what game? And then we go up to the people who greet you at the door. Hey, oh, my gosh, you guys are here for a Mercury game? No. Are you? And we laughed the whole way down the hallway as we walked in. Oh, you guys got tickets to the game? No, we're here to drink and have some dinner and get out of here and go do something good. And during that game, there was nobody there in the rah Rah room. I'm like. So they're like, maybe we shouldn't. They'll get a few people for a championship as they'll play pretend. There's interest, but there's none.
Brady
The championship game yesterday.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
I couldn't believe how many. I mean, so when I went up and I saw that my neighbor is.
John Holmberg
Watching it at his house.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Who?
Brady
Because his dad was.
John Holmberg
Oh, his dad was to pretend to like it because it was a road game within.
Brady
He says that my dad goes to all the games. He does. Oh, there he is.
John Holmberg
Yeah, he was at the game on tv.
Brady
I mean, because, you know, he's courtside.
John Holmberg
Not hard to find, was it? Early in the game, it was. Oh, no, he had to go. Oh, he had to go because he took his daughter yes. Okay, so this was his. Part of the ruse was occasionally go and, like, wave at that point when.
Brady
He'S at the game, you know, because he's courtside and.
John Holmberg
And above him and. Wait a minute.
Brady
They're empty seats.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah. His dad was there, and Kevin thought watching the game was necessary.
Brady
I guess so.
John Holmberg
That's silly. It was Sunday.
Brady
Yeah, you can see your dad.
John Holmberg
It's Sunday.
Brady
Hey, there's Ray.
John Holmberg
Does he not know about what goes on in America on Sunday?
Brady
Well, he was putting together something from Ikea. So he does focus.
John Holmberg
He's got no team or care at all for football. He's not a sports ball guy.
Brady
Cardinals.
John Holmberg
Oh, you. So. Yeah, like I said.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
It says, how sad is it the.
Brady
Writer cup was done?
John Holmberg
Yeah, that was fun. He said, how sad is it that the Mercury are in the playoffs and the Suns and Diamondbacks just can't do it? I know it is tough that the city is cursed because the Mercury keep winning championships and no one even knows that. I. Kevin, Ray and I had this talk because he has to play pretend. I love Kevin. He's a good friend, but he was the broadcaster for the Mercury for a couple years, and he has to play pretend that he thinks Mercury basketball is awesome occasionally. And he hears me and he just laughs the whole time because he knows I'm right. And so we were talking once, and I'm like, kevin son's been to the championship three times in their existence. 1976, 1993, 2021. Who were their opponents? And Kevin. Well, Celtics, Bulls, Bucks. All right, you broadcast two of the Mercury's championships. Who have they played in the. Hold on. And I'm like, you didn't even know. And you were the guy broadcasting the games, and you've already forgotten Seattle. I'm like, no, it's too late. You needed to rattle zombies faster. Did the Suns ones. Okay, fine. Finally, everybody just breaks a fine. It's hilarious. But if I have to get a tattoo of this gaggle, the fun thing's gonna be explaining it to everybody. What is that? Oh, Phoenix Mercury. Are you a weatherman or something? And I'll just say yes. What's Phoenix Mercury? World champions 2025. We won. That's it. We win the World Championship of weather in 2025.
Brady
And make sure you get the tattoo detail enough, you know, they don't have to ask. Oh, it's just world Champions.
John Holmberg
No, it's going to be block letters like a prison tattoo that just says, Phoenix Mercury, World Champions 2025. I put it up on my left pectoral. Did you do it?
Brady
Old English?
John Holmberg
Yeah, there you go. Straight. Like I drew it with a pen. Yeah, homie, I'm not going old English. Nothing fancy. Just Phoenix. Just like I wrote it with a pen. Phoenix Mercury World Champs 2025 if they do it, no questions need to ask about. I'm gonna add in the word girl.
Brady
Why?
John Holmberg
Girl basketball world champions 2025. That's what I'll write. It'll be horrible. In fact, if you've been to prison and used to be prison tap man, if you were known as ink in the joint, you can do it. I'll have you come by and get some of that Bic ink and needle and do a prison tattoo on my. On my shoulder.
Brady
So I think you should have that. All that information and then underneath just say we got next.
John Holmberg
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's not a bad idea. Yeah, the W I'll have written on my body somewhere. Never gonna do that. I don't have to worry about it. Somebody will take out this girl basketball team. We'll have nothing to worry about. Says remember Suns and four guy. Now we have Mercury to two with three, maybe four. I don't know. How many do they play Knows. No one knows. It just ends when it ends. And it usually ends during football or a baseball playoff game because they're hiding. I think it's a money laundering thing. I think the NBA's got like 15 million a year they have to cycle through. They might launder it. It might be the only illegal money and they just siphon it through the WNBA because they know no one's looking. Chris. They used to do it the right way and get a tramp stamp and do it. I thought about that. That just feels like it would hurt. But so many 19 year old weak girls have gone through that. I mean how much? How bad can it be? Phoenix Mercury World Champs 2025 I'll have it written on my that's not a bad idea. A tramp stamp of that. But I made that comment thinking that I didn't even know but series away. This one says combo up your last tattoo idea when the Diamondbacks would win the championship and have Brady drew Hey Bata dressed in a Mercury jersey. That's not a bad idea. Spinning a ball to have a picture of Brady in a Mercury outf bringing him down your personal hell too. That's not a bad idea. I actually kind of like that one. Just get a tattoo of Brady on my chest with his thumbs up Merc.
Brady
And a tiny ball Spinning.
John Holmberg
Yeah, baby, yeah. A little, little girl sized basketball saying, hey fan. In the, in the little bubble above it. Hey fan.
Brady
Still get too many questions.
John Holmberg
Mercury Brady's not bad. Yeah, but there'd be worth answering. Mercury Mercury Brady's not bad. And you notice I'm pretty footloose and fancy free about this whole thing. I can't imagine. Girl championship. I just. I'm gonna go ahead and lean on the Vegas Aces to get the job done and. Or the Indiana Fever. Evidently the Mercury have good players. Too bad no one can name them. I do. I challenge you to go old school 1990s, 8th grade crank call. Grab a. Just dial up 480-and- then start with 926-and then throw in four numbers at your random and whoever answers, just go, I've got a million dollars. If you can quickly name two Phoenix Mercury players and everybody be like, ah, ah, ah.
Brady
Click.
John Holmberg
Then try that number again and say, how about $100? Name two sons players on the roster now. Oh, you get to Devin Booker and Dylan Brooks. People would know immediately. Like most of the time, oh yeah, I know that team. Because it's men. Men's basketball. Women's sports isn't bad. It's just this particular one. I would endorse the 3 on 3 girls league. I'd be Dave Portnoy at that thing. I would gladly get behind that three on three, shorten the court, drop the rims down. I think that would be fun because it plays into it. But anyway, maybe I get this. Maybe I get this tattoo or not said use the Gatorade slogan and put letter cook underneath. That's a good idea. That's good stuff. I don't know. It says John if. The good news is if they do when only 10 or 12 people would know. So you might be able to just lie and avoid this. We'll forget a week later. That's true. Yeah. Or I could just get one that with Aman Ra St. Brown's catchphrase. I run this and then have like one of the Mercury players on there. But I'd have to explain all that's Shedrina Bonner. I don't know who. I don't know throwing out there. I don't know who that is. And they'll be like, what's that like? It's a Mercury player. They're like, oh, I thought your aunt was mad. Now she's younger than me. And then everybody that saw the Doug Hopkins commercial is bugging me too. It ran so 15 seconds. We did like four or five of them last week over at Doug's office. It was great. And then threw those together. I didn't realize how fast you can put a commercial together now, I guess when you don't have to edit it at all. You're welcome, Johnny. No mistakes. Doug did it in one take. Sort of. Kind of, yeah. Doug did a couple. Like, I. I didn't. I didn't make. I made one error and said the F word. And then everybody laughed, and we did. We did a bunch of them. I didn't make. We. We ran each commercial. We did, like, five times. So it took. It literally took 12 or 15 minutes. And I'm like, well, this will air probably later in the sea. It aired Sunday. I was asleep because I got up at 6 to watch a football game. So it aired evidently during the Eagles game. I didn't even know. People blowing up my phone. What the hell are you doing in a commercial with Doug Hopkins? Like, Doug Hopkins knows where his bread is buttered. And I needed a spokesperson that people like. And so they put me out there and I could stand next to Doug. It was easy. It was fun. But, yeah, they didn't even. I just doubt they set it up. We did it. I figured there'd be some sort of process. And then he realized. And the whole whole thing's on phones. The amazing thing is now, like, professional cameramen just have really cool ways to hold their iPhones. And then that's it.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
And they. And the whole thing was done on a phone. And it looked great. No makeup. We didn't do any of that. Doug showed up with a fresh haircut, I'll tell you that. Is that the. The. The front edge of his hair looks phenomenal. Don't turn around. But that thing he did up front there, I didn't even go to Turkey for that. It just. He got a good one. One that is a. And then the rest of it looked really good. His beard was trimmed. I just showed up, and nobody. I thought we'd have makeup people and, like, stuff.
Brady
Beautiful set.
John Holmberg
Sit down, read this. Get out. And we did it, and it was fun. So it aired Sunday, and everybody's bothering me. I don't know. I don't think I should be on TV either. But there it is.
Brady
You guys driving in a fake car together. What's the setup?
John Holmberg
No, we're just sitting in his office talking about real estate. That's it. I'm. I basically. I do all the heavy lifting. I had all the lines. I kept looking. All the lines were yellow. They were all Mine, like, how come I'm doing all the reading? There'll be more running, I guess. We're there. I. I didn't expect it this weekend, that's for sure, but. Sorry to sully your screens with my melon, but one thing, I've always thought, if I'm ever going to be on tv, I should probably stand next to Doug Hawk Hawkins. And it worked because people didn't want to look at me and go, what's wrong with him? Like they normally do. Kind of normalized me a little. And we were angled in us. Yeah, it was. Yeah. We're just sitting at a desk enjoying. We're at a bar enjoying football. And just. It looks live, except for, if you notice, in the background, it was at Doug's office. He's got this huge room, and in it is this gargantuan television. It's huge. And so they had a tape of last year's Cardinals and Jets game, and that's on in the background. And the only problems we had was occasionally the screen would show, like, a Cardinals logo real clear. So we had to time it to where we had, like, 20 seconds of no logos, or else you get. Yeah, the NFL starts screaming at you and stuff. So it's just. You can't tell who's playing in the background. You can tell it's football, but you don't know because it blurs it out a little bit. But sometimes it would just have the big Cardinal bird on there, or it would say Jets. Like, we got to stop for a second. We get that off there. And then it was pretty neat. Blown away. I've done those commercials around.
Brady
You can just have the two. Just generic football players, like, you're out of practice.
John Holmberg
I don't think you got that blue.
Brady
You know, Jew jersey with nothing on it.
John Holmberg
The Blue Jew. Does he grant wishes? Hello, welcome. The Blue Jew. Thanks for rubbing the minority. The Juice Murphy. Oh, hey, speaking of blue Jew, give it 20 bucks. You do that Blue the Jew? Yeah. No. I don't know. We're gonna dress up every week and do this. I'm pretty sure I'm done there. But it was fun. I just couldn't get over, like, having done this in the past. Usually you do that stuff and it's like, all right, diesel air November 5th, Sunday. We did it on Wednesday. Or Thursday. We did that Thursday, and it aired yesterday. And that's explosive timing. You can get any.
Brady
Now you have a whole new camera system a lot of places with that new iPhone.
John Holmberg
It's. Yeah, that's all they're selling the whole thing is a. It's a studio. It's incredible. And then, you know, I waste my time by going home and I, you know, again, I'm a child, deep down. Headline in the New York Post. People ask ER doctors what's the weirdest thing they've ever pulled out of someone's ass. That's in the New York Post. There's a lot of news this weekend. But they were like, this is too good to pass up. And I. I'm. I'm too childish not to click on that, especially knowing what we've watched with Brett's videos and stuff.
Brady
Yes.
John Holmberg
People stuff.
Brady
Guess what's coming out.
John Holmberg
Yeah. People. Yeah. Yeah. It would be a fun game. People stuff things in their ass. The sad thing was the ER doctor, when asked the question, didn't go, what are you talking about? He went, oh, yeah, that. Well, let me see. And he had to think about, like, the 300 things he's yanked out of people's asses. And that's the error. That's worst case scenario. Think of all of the times they almost went to the ER but then got it dislodged. Think of all the people that just narrowly averted an emergency room visit with thing half stuck up their ass. When they start, you know, we start getting nervous. Like, this could mean a hospital visit. This is bad. Not when they're stuffed in your ass, but you always contemplate, is this hospital worthy? What do we do? You're 50. 50. And then you're like, I think I'll better go. You get like a thing in your ass, and you're like, this won't come out. And your friends, whoever put it in there has to dig around and get it, because you're at that point with something in your ass to where you're worried medically, you're not reaching around in there. Whoever put it there is.
Brady
I. I think most of them, it's solo done.
John Holmberg
You want to believe that.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
But there's a lot of people doing ass play goofing around with stuff. And usually you have a spotter for that. If you're doing it solo, you just die of it most of the time. So the doctor said probably the weirdest thing recently he's pulled out of somebody's ass was a Yankee candle in the glass. Oh, I know. Crandall Bailey.
Brady
Let's get a video of that.
John Holmberg
I mean, we've seen some stuff on Brett's videos, but the dude's like, yeah. He goes, as a veteran of Strange stuff. I gotta tell you. The things up the butt is fairly common. But a guy who came in and complained that had a personal problem. And whenever anybody says that, that's ER doctor for there's something stuck in my ass. There's even a little personal issue if it's a man got something, a personal problem. Women come in with personal problems. It itches. There's some sort of weird discharge, something like that. Men come in and say, I've got a personal problem I'd rather not discuss with the front desk. That means something stuck in his ass. And he said. So a guy came in, he said, I've got a personal problem. I know what that's going to be. Butt stuff. And he says. Then the patient confessed to the doctor that he and his girlfriend got a little weird the night before. A little. So he'd been digging around in there for almost 12, 13 hours before he finally said, I gotta go to the doctor. And he said, we couldn't get it out. And he didn't tell me what it was. And he said, but I'll tell you this, his ass smelled amazing. He had a candle in it. And he said, still lit? Yeah, probably. He said. So it was a Yankee candle and not the mini one. It was the big one. He said, the desktop jar. And it wasn't just the top, it was the whole thing. So he kept it capped with a little rubber edge. He put the whole thing in there. He said, even as a professional, sometimes I don't even ask why. In this case, I didn't. The question then became, how do I get this out? And really, for things that are that big, you can't just reach up there and grab it. That's what they were trying to do. And that's why it got deeper. The suction causes the vacuum to pull it even further. He says, so if you ever have this problem, you have to intubate, paralyze the patient with anesthesia, put them on a ventilator as you would an operation, give them medication that relaxes every muscle in their body so you can get up there and grab it. Holmberg's morning sickness. Holmberg's morning sickness. 28 kupd holmberg's morning sickness man, being a doctor ain't worth it, man. Nearly desktop.
Brady
All one. Or does it.
John Holmberg
It's one jar with a little jar with the cap off. Yeah, yeah.
Brady
But if it. If it's just the same circumference all.
John Holmberg
The way around, usually.
Brady
Doesn't it taper a little narrow on that where the lid Is.
John Holmberg
Well, Yankee candles have that kind of bulbous cap. Then the. The handle. The like get your finger grip under there so it kind of cuts in and then goes down into the. The. It's the smoothest of the candle glass, I would say. It's not those, you know, tubes.
Brady
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
John Holmberg
These are kind of the desktop bulbous. Yeah, that. It's got a cap and then the other one. Like, right, like that. Yeah. They got that weird rounded off top which made those two go. I bet you I could get that in there. How many people do you think are hospitalized with something stuck in their ass every single year? Hospitalized.
Brady
How many a year?
John Holmberg
How many a year? Resort to ER doctor. Pull this out of me.
Brady
2000.
John Holmberg
Okay. 4000 is the correct answer. You guys were dancing all around 4,000 people. Which means my guess would be there's another quarter million that get it out themselves.
Brady
Do we have. Do we have a number of, like, deaths?
John Holmberg
No.
Brady
That they don't report in.
John Holmberg
What would that fall under? Just accident.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Says he added after identifying the candle, obstructing the exodus. Staff placed bets on what scent the profile would be. And I won the bet. Pumpkin spice. It was October. Pumpkin spice. Candle up his ass. At least he's seasonal. This is the exact candle that was not the one that was pulled out. But the style, the design of what he stuffed in there. Smells like Hawaiian breeze. Smell good. Oh, that's nice. I'm gonna leave it in there. If I was you, I'd leave this in there. Could you fart for me real quick? I want to see what this does. See how that mixes. Yeah. The 4,000 people are hospitalized with foreign objects in their butts.
Brady
Fidela fudge.
John Holmberg
Sorry, sorry, sorry. Every year. And the patient was 43. And nearly 70% of patients are male. 78%. I'm sorry. 40% require hospitalization for more than a day. Half a dozen foreign bodies are sex object. Most of the time it's vibrators and sex toys. Beads go in all the time. And then stuff that's less obvious. Like this candle. A French senior citizen left doctors shell shocked in 2022 when he arrived with a World War II artillery shell lodged in his ass. Wow. They had to evacuate the hospital just in case it went off. You can't go to the hospital for that. You just blow up. Hilarious. So I know I'm talking to an audience of people who are shaking their heads going, can you believe it? But there's probably 20% of you out there. Like, I remember the day I dodged that bullet. There's been stuff, ladies. I know you guys are quick to act like that's a no go, but.
Brady
You know, looking at that public pumpkin spice right now, for sure, life experience.
John Holmberg
Tells me, eventually, ladies, you're gonna try it. Whether or not it's something like that, I don't know. But stuff's going in there and it'll. It'll swallow it up. So you can sit and shake your head with your carpool guy, but at the next stoplight, look each other in the eyes, and whoever starts laughing has had something stuck in their ass. If you're in the car with anybody around, do you believe that homebrew talking about that? Then just look at each other. And then one guy goes, that's the guy who's got stuff in his ass a lot. Count on it. I like that we're in a society where a journalist went to an ER doctor and that was his question, that was the story. Because if you ever think about, like, the way newspapers works, because I've watched Spider man, he assigns.
Brady
Gotta go get the scoop.
John Holmberg
You gotta go get these. Like, you talk to your editor as, like, I got something cheap. What is it? I think I've got a story. About what? People shoving their asses. Well, get on out of the hospitals. Find out all you can.
Brady
Or it would have been a day. That guy just did it himself. He's like, what do you guys got for last night?
John Holmberg
I got something jammed in my ass and it went to the hospital. Go on. Yeah, yeah. It turns out there's like 4,000 people just like me. There's an epidemic, Chief. Run it. We'll run that story. That's our next headline. Who is this Spider man and what's up your ass? And that's been a phrase forever. So your parents did it? Their parents. Baboo and Apple Chick. Apple Chick. Both. Because the phrase what's up your ass? Has been common for ages. Doesn't come out of the thin and blue sky. What's up your ass is the thing. Cause sometimes like, Jesus. Are you all right, Brad? I'm sorry. I'm having a rough day. I got something stuffed in my ass like, gee, Jeremy. And then the phrase was born. Well, what's up your ass today? Nothing. We were acting the same as you did that time you had something in your ass.
Brady
They accuse you. They accuse you of having something too, the way you're walking.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah.
Brady
Maybe there was something for that.
John Holmberg
Yeah. What are you walking around like that for? I'm sorry. You Got a brick in your ass? I got a spoon up my ass. Well, you want to get that out? I've been trying.
Brady
You find out 80% of the time it's true.
John Holmberg
There's an app. What's up your ass? Oh, you really want to know? Oh, you're just asking to be nice. It's a new game Izzy's gonna be playing over there. What's in my ass? Said Katie. KB's like a candle. You couldn't get that out. Those are easy. And then they, you know. Yeah, what's up your ass? Should be a game they play over there. I could just hear it right now. It's time to play what's up your ass all day, Z93. 3. The phone lines are going crazy. I guess have a lot of stuff in your ass. We'll be right back to find out more of what's up your ass. 93. 3. I got it, Izzy. We're good. Thanks for calling.
Brady
Then it turns in the top. That.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Yankee Candle Amateur. You want to guess what's in my ass, Izzy? Yeah, sure, go ahead. Do you want me to rev the engine? Oh, my God. Well, I used a car to chase the German shepherd in your ass. You heard me. I used to say that all the time. Years ago. That was a joke I did on a stage because there was a story at the time where somebody got something stuck in his butt, and it was small. And I'm like. I just said. I remember in this society, bigger is always better. Eventually it's going to get bigger and there's going to be, you know, you know, you know, it was hamsters. It was hamsters. And then it turned. Well, that's not going to be enough. So then it turned into, like, rabbits and then small dogs and then medium sized dogs, then like the head of a pony, then like a full German shepherd. And eventually somebody just be like, all right, just. If I just bend over to the. Just just slowly pull in and then rev the engine. I got a Hyundai in my ass. We keep getting bigger and bigger. Remember when that was the biggest news in the world? And it's still not sure if it's true? Richard Gere had a hamster in there. And everybody's question was, how?
Brady
Coast to coast.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Everyone's question was, how do you do it? And we all learned about the toilet paper roll and the poor little hamster. And to cover the end. And he would run in that oily mess that. That poor hamster. Important.
Brady
Nobody ever felt bad for the actual habit. Habit trail or Whatever. The plastic tube.
John Holmberg
Oh, any sort of tube that he'd go in. But people were. You know, they were figuring it out at home if you didn't have a habit trail. And a lot of them didn't. Brady. Many of them weren't really trying to go for the entertainment of the hamster. Trying to treat the hamster right. They go pick up the hamster that day. They didn't get the idea that their beloved pet would be fun in their ass one day. So they took him out of his enclosure. I don't think people who shove hamsters in their ass have the enclosure. I'm pretty sure they're not spending time at petsmart trying to get the best stuff for that hamster that's just going in his ass. They use the Bounty tube. They're not going and spending extra cash on an aquarium. Them got like seven of them. And I just can't help but want to shove that one in my ass.
Brady
Don't think that it would hold up the tube. Be strong.
John Holmberg
Well, you'd be surprised. Those are very strong cardboard. And all you really need to do is one trip. What do you. What's it need to hold up for? You're thinking of your ass. You'd clench it up.
Brady
Yeah, there's no way.
John Holmberg
There's a way. Yeah, there's a way. But you want to. Yeah. I don't think those guys are going to petsmart. Maybe buy one PVC pipe or something. Something.
Brady
Then the other thing is, they had that caliper thing that we've seen now.
John Holmberg
Now that's new. Like I said, what I joked about 30 years ago is now coming true in ways I'd never imagined. Like you can drop bowling balls in some of these people and eventually that will be the thing. We're not even batting an eye at this anymore. Which makes me wish that dude last week was right and it was the other. Because we don't seem to. We have a stomach for everything now. It's incredible. You imagine your grandpa coming back to life and showing him one of Brett's videos.
Brady
I think you'd faint.
John Holmberg
He'd die again. Alvar would drop dead in this room if you showed him any of that arms to shoulders ass action that we've seen several times. I don't know that my grandpa.
Brady
No way.
John Holmberg
Alvar. Not. Not the human condition. He wouldn't understand how that. And then he'd just die. He'd just look at it. And the last feeling, he'd be like, what's that?
Brady
That's what People. Papa would say, what? What are we looking at?
John Holmberg
Yeah, what is this? And then he would just die immediately. Alvar would look at me and go, why did you. What is this? Oh, and that would be the end of it.
Brady
My dad.
John Holmberg
You're dead. Yeah, that would be the end of it. We have an early entry since we were talking about. There's two arms in this guy's butt. Oh, wait, is that a girl?
Brady
I think that's.
John Holmberg
It's looking like. There you go. There goes a full glass Mason jar. And it's going right in. How do you do it? How do you people do it? Look at that.
Brady
Is that the okay?
John Holmberg
Yeah. She keeps giving hand signals like she's scuba diving. Thumbs up, give the okay symbol. It's time to surface. Jesus. We're not screwing around. That's a. Whoa.
Brady
That's a Mason jar.
John Holmberg
That's a full Mason jar for, like, lots of preserves. Are they listening to kupd?
Brady
I think so. That's reverse canning.
John Holmberg
All right. Thank you, Brady. Well done. It's an old timey joke, but that was a good one. I like that. Canning is what old people used to do with their fruits. And then if it's in a can, it's canning. The canning. It's pretty good stuff. Oh, come on. They just showed a guy and you think. And you think a bounty roll wouldn't go in that? I don't think it would hold up because you're thinking of that pristine little tube. Every time the candle comes out or whatever that jar was, the dude decides to open it with his hands, and you could get a whole head in there. That's enough, Brett. It's not time for that yet. Well, Crandall was involved in the conversation. Had to send us over something. Speaking of the end of the world guy, the.
Brady
The video team's up early.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah, they're up there. Well, they're doing their. It's Monday. They're at work. Work. The. The guy who made the proclamation at the end of the world that Jesus came to him, sat in the throne, and said, September 23rd and 24th, it's all over. Sell your stuff. Get your affairs in order. Get your house right. He said he did a video this weekend saying he was sorry for that. So my question.
Brady
Part of the. The other conspiracy theory, that it's not happening because the Epstein files weren't released.
John Holmberg
Yeah, that's it. That must be it. That must be it. And that's enough of that. No more rapture, people. And no more. If it happens. Let's just all be surprised. Don't try to get ahead of the game and be the guy who called it. It's not the NCAA bracket. If it's the end of the world, you're not going to get any extra credit for going. Called it. It doesn't matter. So you got it. Fresno Speed State beat Gonzaga. Wow. Called it. Doesn't matter if you don't win the tournament. It doesn't matter. Another thing that has to stop happening because it's making me mad is people who keep saying that God did that to Charlie Kirk on purpose. If that's part of your God's plan. He's miserable, that's all. Leave a note for the kids at the very least, or take him in his sleep. Why did he have to blow up his throat on TV so I could sit back and listen to people going, God called for him. He could have done it a lot nicer. He left a lot of trauma in his wake, especially for two little kids and a lady. So I know that's how some people deal with stuff, but keep that to yourselves, because that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life. Life. God did that. So Charlie could be by his side. Like, a thousand different options on that one, I think. And that's his biggest fish to fry right now is to make sure that Charlie's with him. Child cancer. You want to get on that real quick? If you're going to get involved with us, don't do it that way, man.
Brady
I ran into someone who's talking about the whole situation. He's like, we haven't seen. How come we haven't seen the Turning Point cameras because they had multiple. I didn't know.
John Holmberg
Violence. Yeah, they were.
Brady
He's like. He's saying it's not a 30 06. I go, well, didn't they have cases? He's like, this was.
John Holmberg
Who cares?
Brady
The entry of it.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brady
By the way, this kid didn't do. In other words, saying the kid was just the pansy.
John Holmberg
Okay, Patsy, whatever. If everybody wants it to be bigger than it actually is, it's a lunatic that shot a guy. That's it. Regardless. Yeah, yeah, he's a pansy. Like, Brett's still laughing at the idea that he called him He's a pansy. Which I would. I would say since he had that trans girlfriend. Patsy's right. He's Patsy Pansy. It's the worst porn star ever. I'm Patsy. Pansy. I can't imagine what you're gonna do next, but yeah, blue is. I mean, you know, come on. Enough of that whole that's God's plan. Stop it. Keep that to yourself. Because that's crazy. Talk to a normal person who doesn't want to hear that? That's what God will do to get a buddy with, you know, to spend the weekend with him. That sounds crazy. And leave a family behind like that, and you think you're making sense? God chunked out. And if I. By the way, if I ever. If we had cameras in the studio and my throat exploded, KP is probably not going to throw that video out too quickly, I don't think. Pretty sure my employers are going to be like, you know what? These videos are done. We're not doing this. If they did it, it would be for clicks. And that's gross. How come we haven't seen the Turning Point videos? You don't. You're not entitled to that. That was a horrible situation. Just absolutely dreadful. To prove it, man, I read a whole article this week in this lady trying to make it beautiful. And I understand that that's how you're dealing with it, but do you realize how stupid you sound? That that's what your God would do to someone? It's because he called him. Do it in his sleep. Write a note like Santa or the tooth fairy and say, hey, kids, borrow your dad for the next 60, 70 years. He'll see you later. Blow him up on TV. So they got to deal with that the rest of their lives. That's not a God I want to get behind, even if it is part of some greater plan. Kind of gruesome, him. Make a better plan. I could come up with a better plan. Like, we need you to go get Charlie Kirk and make it so the family's okay. He's not coming back. Like, okay, I'll come up with something. Don't blow him up. All right, I won't. Terrible. So, yeah, I saw this whole thing this weekend, and everybody's just nodding because everybody's afraid to say, that's gross. Because, you know, you're talking about people's religions and stuff. But that's a gross one. That's really. And the Mormons lost a guy this weekend. Their main. Their main fella, the Mr. Nelson. Mr. Nelson is his name. He's. He's like a thousand and four years old. And he. He passed away. So the Mormons are. I guess it's like their pope or something. He's their president.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
The president of Mormons. There's Bob Nelson. I don't Know his name. I forgot as a comedian in the 80s, but he's gone too, so. So that's the way I want God to call me. Plus, they had that church fire, too, in Michigan. Oh, that's right. Well, that. Yeah, that whole thing. But I want God to call me that way. I want God to call me when I'm, like, 78 and sleeping rather than blow me up on TV. I think that's a better way for God to call me. Yeah, that seems better. Oh, the oldest living Mormon president passed away. God. Nobody ever says that. Oh, God needed him by his side. No, because unless it's vulgar and horrible.
Brady
Russell Nelson.
John Holmberg
All right, whatever. Who cares? Bottom line is, that's a better way to get called out by whatever you believe in.
Brady
Had a good run 101.
John Holmberg
I had an argument with somebody who said that. It's like, yeah, that's just the way it works. I'm like, okay, you can say that because you believe that. That God blew Charlie Kirk up in front of all of us. To see in the most violent, disgusting way possible. If a Muslim said that, you'd think they were crazy. If a Muslim said, yes, Allah called him, that was. He exploded for Allah, he'd be like, oh, they're nuts. That's radicalism. But we do it and it's like, oh, that's beautiful. No, it's not.
Brady
They're doing that. That's there. There's a difference.
John Holmberg
Is it.
Brady
Charlie wasn't doing it himself.
John Holmberg
No, no, no, I'm not talking about that. They. They'll kill for, like, people who get blown up. Yeah, see, for the Muslim cause, Right? An honor. It's an honor. Yeah. And it's like God called him up and he gets shot at or killed. It's like, oh, they love that stuff. And we think they're crazy, and we turn around, do the exact same thing. You look at that. In the Middle east, if somebody gets, you know, martyred, they're heroes. And we're like, man, they're nuts. That's a group of nuts. We're no different. I find it all same drive.
Brady
I mean, as far as Charlie, you know what? Hey, you know what you're doing? You know, you feel compared. Compelled by your faith, but there's some risk to it.
John Holmberg
Yeah, but you're not hearing me. Like, when people after the fact start going, this is because God wanted them. That's creepy. Because when a. When it happens in the Middle east, we find it disturbing when they say, oh, he did it. Allah needed him. So, yeah, that you watch a vulgar video of some guy getting exploded, and they're like, that's good. God needed that guy. He was a spokesman for us. And I'm like, I don't know. Call me crazy, but I'd rather have a God that wasn't into that kind of stuff. I wouldn't want to believe in that. That sounds bananas to me. If you get your head blown off because God likes you. What? That's bananas? Yeah. No, that's the way he works. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm. Can I. I'd like to choose God. B, please. Doesn't make any sense to me. Be hard. Hard pressed to explain it. How it's different when it's a Muslim guy that we call a radical lunatic. Then when we start saying, it's a beautiful thing here. I just feel bad for the kids. That video is going to be floating around forever. They're gonna see that. Nobody needs to see someone they love. No one to see that at all. What's your dad? And try to explain to them, oh, no, because God wanted to hang with him. Like, was he Muslim? Nope. Oh, so we're the same. It's creepy. So stop saying that. Just start seeing it's gross. Like Jimmy Kimmel does. 7:31. What do you got on the big board of musical treats? All right, well, the hundreds are pretty much over is what they're saying. So now's the time to get the head out on the trails and go over to Action Ride Shop. Pick yourself up a bike, get that bike serviced. It's now time to do it, guys. We've been telling you about it for a while, but best wrenches in town can be found at Action ride shop, with two locations right there at Gilbert Road and Southern. The OG and the brand new one at Power Road and McDowell. Get your bike fixed, get a new bike, rent a bike, and get all the goodies that go along to hitting you up on the trail. It is Action Rideshop. ActionRideshop.com is where you want to be. This guy says you're comparing suicide to assassination. No, no. Never mentioned suicide. Whenever we killed Osama bin Laden, like, he's. It was a good. They celebrated it. It was a big deal.
Brady
Nation martyred him.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Immediately. Yeah. And they made it, like, God's will. I was great. He's with God now. And they. Anytime that kind of happens, it's terrible. No, I'm not. I just find it to be, like, pretty comparable. It can't really be explained away. It's gross. Stop doing it. On the list, Body count, Ski mask Way For Skyler, Walking around Ireland. Ghost, Beastie Boys, Filter Raw Three doors down. Loser for Lamar Jackson. Steve Miller Band. The Joker for the packers and Cowboys. Tie Metallica, Demon Hunter, Hate breed. Destroy everything for ties in the NFL. Eddie Murphy. Boogie in your butt. Well, we obviously got White Zombie. Welcome to planet Mother Effort for all the crazies in the world. And army of Anyone. Goodbye. Forgot about army of Anyone. That was the. The dude from Filter and the guys from Stone Temple Pilots. Yeah. Do we know Goodbye? Oh, yeah, that was. Let's play that. I haven't heard that in 15 years. That was a great song. Goodbye was the big hit. I don't remember that.
Brady
Les Claypool, 62 today.
John Holmberg
Less is 62. How about that? My God. And I'm sure there's people out there that want to scream and yell that he should play the super bowl halftime show, but it's Bad Bunny and it's the right choice.
Brady
You imagine that, 20 minutes of bass.
John Holmberg
Yes, I can. But can I also imagine what a poor choice it would be to the masses to go, what the hell's wrong with this guy? Why is that man in a top hat doing that to that base? Did he just do pure imagination? Bring the game back on. Babooning ladies get a little moist, dude stare and go, what's this dude doing? Whether you like it or not, you're gonna watch Metallica and stuff like that that everybody's clamoring for. It's not ever going to happen. Ever. Yeah. Do you have it? Yeah, I got it. Okay, let's do it. I forgot all about army of Anyone. This song was great. I actually had high hopes for them to kind of become a super group, and it never really panned out. That's awesome. All right. Army of Anyone. When did this come out? 2008. Nine mighty me. Before that. Oh, this is gonna hurt. This is gonna hurt a lot because Scott Weiland died in, like, I don't remember, 2005. Oh, boy. All right, here we go. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect. 98k u p t. Still streaming Homburg's Morning Sickness online at 98kupd.com Monday's cruising. And you know why that is, Brady? You know why Monday's cruising? Because the Ravens lost and the Steelers won and Lamar Jackson's hamstring hurts. All right, you gonna put a little sprinkle of salt on that delicious steak? On eating. All right. The packers didn't win. And the packers. Even worse. The packers tied a team coming off losing to the Browns. Oh, my God. It's a good money in the Buckeyes one. Nobody cares. No one cares about that. Who did they beat? Was it a wnb?
Brady
Washington.
John Holmberg
Oh, they had a team that actually was on the road, but it's. Yeah, come on. Washington. Any good? They're not. They're familiar. That doesn't mean they're.
Brady
People are picking. That the upset of the weekend? Rick Newheis, he used to coach him. I know. I let him know.
John Holmberg
All right, that's great. I'm sure he took that without a.
Brady
No, no, no response number.
John Holmberg
You randomly text who you believe to be Rick Newheis.
Brady
They don't go, ronnie, what number do you have? Give me.
John Holmberg
Yeah, because there's some sort of distant relation there, right?
Brady
They're cousins.
John Holmberg
Oh, okay. There you go. Who's his. So her mom and her mom's brother is Rick's kid.
Brady
It's her or.
John Holmberg
Yeah, Rick.
Brady
Grandma and Rick's mom are first cousins.
John Holmberg
I think her grandma and Rick Newisel's mother.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Are first. So Ronnie and. Yeah, that's. They're like third or fourth at that point. Point. Then you're not immediate.
Brady
But they're. I mean, close enough. I mean.
John Holmberg
Oh, no, you know, I mean, friendly.
Brady
Like, there's people that have second cousins that you really don't have much contact.
John Holmberg
I don't know any of. I. I don't know that I've ever met a second cousin. I don't even know what it is. But I just know that when grandmas are involved, you're down at least three.
Brady
I think it was her grandmother's. Ronnie's grandmother's husband was related to the new high.
John Holmberg
What I'm saying is Ronnie and Rick Newheisel could probably make babies and they'd be fine. We're getting into threes and fours.
Brady
That I don't know.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Well, when you got Grandma and Grandma's cousin is the mother of New Heisel, man, you're looking at least two right there.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
You're at third cousins by the time you even get to Ronnie. Because there had to be a third party involved after that because Grandma had a kid and that kid had Ronnie. So now you're like, yeah, that's third or fourth. So they could have babies. I'm just text them real quick and go, do you realize you could have babies with my wife and see what he said. Yeah, yeah. You stop. First things first. Let's get to the Important stuff. Ohio State's gonna beat Washington. Second, you could have babies with my wife. So I need you to pull back a little bit there, buddy. Nobody was calling Washington to beat Ohio State for real.
Brady
Well, other than Rick, which it wasn't a bad point.
John Holmberg
Real football got played yesterday. Lamar was crying and sad. Derrick Henry is like seven carrots.
Brady
Don't mess with a hammy. Oh, it could be trouble.
John Holmberg
I might not play next week. And they'll be one and four. You're gonna. You're literally gonna hear me. That's gonna come right out of my urethra. Why a good Monday. Victory Monday. What's my shirt say? Brady. Victory Monday. That's right, because we're in the midst of one. It's time now for Brady to give you all the news that only Brady knows. We call this the Brady Report is brought to you by our friends@allprochade.com the weather was glorious after the biblical storms we had up till Saturday. I had thought it was all over there Saturday afternoon and I went out and squeegee off the patio and got everything ready to go for Sunday morning super game because it's starting early. So start the day before, get that cleared out. I was going to have people slumber over at the house. Steeler fans, we get up early and watch the game. And then a massive storm rolled through out of nowhere and flooded the whole thing again. Called everybody and said, stay home. I'll see you in the morning. But the weather you yesterday was unreal. And there was a couple of times I was in direct sunlight. I'm like, nah, I need that. All pro shade. This is a good thing. I don't have a plan for where I want it, but I know where I want it. So I'm going to give him a ring. All Prochet.com is where you go to take that area you love in your backyard but sometimes gets a little direct sunny. If you're moving umbrellas, you don't have to do that anymore. And I was doing that yesterday, scooching umbrellas around to get sunlight out of my eyes. That was a perfect thing. But God, what a day. All pro shade can take that space in your house and make an outdoor space just like an indoor space while we creep into the most beautiful time of year here in the valley, which is fall. Here we go. AllProChade.com they'll get you there. Brady reported.
Brady
Good Monday morning to you, Phoenix.
John Holmberg
Hello world. Hi.
Brady
Happy National Coffee Day.
John Holmberg
Okay, I gave a coffee another try yesterday as has been My tradition once a year, since I was told years ago by a group of people at a table at dinner that once you turn 45, you're gonna just start liking coffee. Well, so far, no good. It gets worse every time I sip it. I had some yesterday. It's, as my friend John Sharpnick calls it, dude, it's bean juice. And when you put it that way, it suddenly becomes disgusting.
Brady
I hate Jim Elliott to say that.
John Holmberg
Bean juice. Delicious bean juice.
Brady
Do coffee commercials.
John Holmberg
Juan Valdez is on the mountain now getting those beans, squeezing out bean juice. It's gross. It's bitter. It's hot. First of all, it's hot. I don't know if anybody told you that coffee is. It's hot. That took me by surprise. I'm like, oh, we live in the desert. Why am I pouring scalding hot liquid?
Brady
Can you ice it up?
John Holmberg
Is it coffee still, or is it just iced tea with the worst flavor ever? So it's hot, and then you drink that, and you realize, I just poured scalding hot lava into my body while it's already hot out. Like, that's no good. So I'm not understanding. I. You know, everybody can go get your own. Do your thing. But I was told after 40, Brett, you started drinking it. Were you one of the guys that started later in life that started with the coffee, or did you always drink it? Probably my late 20s, I think. Okay, but there's. There's kids out there that sit there and drink with their parents. It's totally different now. Yeah, but you.
Brady
Oh, I was late 20s.
John Holmberg
Yeah. You like 20s? Yeah, most people who didn't like it. You don't like it either? You don't?
Brady
Yeah. No, no, but I probably. I have to disguise it.
John Holmberg
You have to make a milkshake out of it? Yeah. Yeah. And that's just a milkshake. That's not coffee. I like the smell of the beans. But bean juice. Bean juice. The banquet bean.
Brady
Got a couple of basis fun facts.
John Holmberg
Suck the bean juice, mijo. Thanks, Sam.
Brady
King Richard III's bones weren't found in England. They were found in England more than five centuries after he died.
John Holmberg
Wait a minute. This story has two. Is this a dragon's lair? Do I get to choose?
Brady
The third bones were found in England more than five centuries after he died by a woman named Philippa Langley, who was researching the king for a screenplay she wanted to write. The movie never happened, but there is one about Philippa's discovery. It's called the Lost King. It came out in 2022.
John Holmberg
How'd she know where to look?
Brady
Stumbled upon it. She just started digging randomly.
John Holmberg
She had those bones the whole time. He just skied the that you look to Jesus for your answer sometimes and.
Brady
They'Re help me God.
John Holmberg
Jesus is not helping.
Brady
He helps me all the time.
John Holmberg
Helps you look pretty stupid. Stumbled upon it. Just say stumbled upon it. Brady. Stumbled upon it. No one else in the history of time had stumbled upon it. Until then though. Nope. The Lord said so. Tell them that that was what I planned. That God's plan to stumble on them bones. And Alison Chains wrote a song about it called Dem Bones. Oh God. Good, good, good, good. Ad lib.
Brady
There are 20 fictional characters with stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The most recent is Batman.
John Holmberg
Who took.
Brady
Who he got a star in 2024.
John Holmberg
Who was the celebrating that?
Brady
Just the Batman character. The Marvel. He got a star.
John Holmberg
That's what I'm saying. Who was there to go?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
The reveal, you know, his friends was who was taking a photo? Super friends by the star creators. Was it Christian Bale? Adam west had died at that point. Michael Keaton, George Clooney. Michael Keaton. Maybe he's not Batman. No.
Brady
Yeah, but he's a friend. He could be there.
John Holmberg
The Joker. No, you've got plenty of good. Yeah. Is the Joker there? If he's there, then the Joker's gonna be.
Brady
Mickey mouse was the first in 1978.
John Holmberg
Huh.
Brady
Minnie has one too, but it came 40 years later. 2018.
John Holmberg
Should have never let her in there. Women don't deserve stars. Hahaha. Sorry. I got myself. Hey, don't let ladies have stars. Next thing you know they want to vote. Haha. What they did. What plan? 19th amendment Mick. Oh my God. Hell, basketball.
Brady
There was.
John Holmberg
Oh.
Brady
A sloth can hold its breath longer than a dolphin. Because of their slow metabolism, they can hold their breath up to 40 minutes. A dolphin can hold her breath around 10 minutes. Human.
John Holmberg
The human record for breath holding.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Three and a half, four minutes. That scuba thing.
Brady
No, it's.
John Holmberg
Oh actually they go like 30. I thought it was.
Brady
Is it really 29 minutes? Three seconds.
John Holmberg
Those deep diversity. Yeah, I just thought that was like a six minute haul. That's insane.
Brady
Set by Tom Cruise and Mission Impossible.
John Holmberg
Wow, I didn't see that coming. 30 minutes.
Brady
There was a rare orange lobster. Guy in upstate New York saw it in a tank, knew it was special. So there's one in around 30 million. Lobsters are orange?
John Holmberg
They're all orange after you boil them.
Brady
He bought it, named it Jean Claude because of the Two huge claws.
John Holmberg
Christ. Yeah. Brady's. Brady immediately flew to his house and.
Brady
Best friend touch with an animal group and they released it back into the ocean. It'll be in another net.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Somebody will eat it. How many orange. I don't think they're that rare because it's like the fifth one in three. Okay. That's like the fifth one I've heard of in the last three or four years. Yeah. And I'm guessing a lot of the lobster just cook them. Do they taste the blue one that showed up a couple years ago was rare. That was like turkey. So they kept that.
Brady
Wasn't that one like old too? So it was giant.
John Holmberg
Probably had a disease. Like if. If lobsters came up here and said oh my God, I found a gray one. Human. Right. They'd be like, oh. They wouldn't realize that it's dying of something. They'd think it was just some weird fun mind.
Brady
Got a 36 year old woman in England named Haley Black. She recently shared a story on tick tock on how a big yawn almost ended her law life. She was about to feed her baby when the kid yawned. And yawns are contagious. Contagious. So she yawned too. And while stretching as she's yawning. And she immediately felt a shock in her neck. Turned out the yawn was so forceful two vertebrae in her neck had shot forward into her spine.
John Holmberg
Oh my God.
Brady
Her spinal cord got so compressed. She was paralyzed for a while. The doctor said there was a 50, 50 chance she'd even survive. But she's still with us.
John Holmberg
I bet she doesn't have a husband. Did it say?
Brady
Well, didn't say.
John Holmberg
Yeah. I think it's just assumed. I mean assume that she doesn't have a husband.
Brady
Here she was in a wheelchair for months. Had to learn how to walk again. She still has issues. Almost 10 years later. This happened in 2016.
John Holmberg
She. She didn't have a husband because just opening her mouth to yawn nearly broke her in half. So she wasn't doing her job. That guy had long left. If your spine shoots out of your mouth just when you yawn, you got to work the jaw a little bit better. Or she has a husband and his penis is so small that she can't open her mouth. She's so used to not opening her mouth. That's actually a good woman. She kept her mouth closed for so many years that yawn almost killed her.
Brady
In a new survey showed that the average kid is holding a phone 52% of the time. When their parents are trying to have a conversation with them, it's not just kids, but, but parents say their partner's holding their phone. 58% of the time they're talking with them.
John Holmberg
I'd rather have you hold the phone while we're talking than reach for it. Yeah, that's. There's nothing worse than people reaching for their phone because a, they don't, they don't have any knowledge of what you're talking about most of the time. So they're going to go try to research your conversation real fast and participate rather than just be a human being going, this is all new to me because we can't not know something. You can't hear something. Brett's telling me a story about cars and I'm like embarrassed at my lack of knowledge. I'll sneak in a phrase that I just learned on the Internet now instead of just going, brett, you know more about this than I do. That's great.
Brady
This was in Albany, New York, but a news station was doing a story because the authorities just found two bodies that were buried in a backyard. And just after they finish up the story, the first time they get a two page letter from a guy by the name of Lorenz Krause said, I did the killing. I killed, I killed my parents. The parents were German, so they weren't real close to the neighbors. The neighbors just figured they moved back to Germany. But Social Security payments kept coming years after they were dying. Well, it ends up the son collecting the dough. Collecting the dough. And he's. They said, would you like to come down for the interview? Yeah. Showed up at the news station and on the spot the guy takes the interview live.
John Holmberg
Wow. And they got that.
Brady
Yeah. And he said, you know, his parents were, you know, I think the father was 93. And he's like, they were ready to go. So he kind of euthanized him, basically.
John Holmberg
And how long was he collecting checks on a 93 year old before? Didn't Elon and Donald find this one?
Brady
53 years old. There's the dude.
John Holmberg
We have the video of him admitting it.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
When did he kill him?
Brady
It doesn't have the year on this.
John Holmberg
Got a skullet going on.
Brady
Yeah. He's 53 years old.
John Holmberg
Never, never trust a Scarlet. At least he'll be safe in jail because nobody's going to want the Scarlet guy. Yeah.
Brady
It doesn't say, but it just says they've been collecting the checks. They've been sending them out for years.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
We got a, a teacher that's apologizing to the Paris the school because she fed a kitten to this snake.
John Holmberg
Come on, lady, you gotta know better.
Brady
So the kitten was sick to begin with and it wasn't going to survive. And so she's like, well, there's vets.
John Holmberg
You know, you take it to a doctor, it's not going to survive the way you're doing it.
Brady
Definitely. According to her, there was no chance for the cat. I might as well use it as an example.
John Holmberg
Sure.
Brady
So she apologized. They're looking into it, whether or not they're going to say, all right, you're done here.
John Holmberg
How old are the yes.
Brady
To elementary school.
John Holmberg
Are there any details in your stories at all today? Very confused. They didn't include the years or the people's names or events. Nothing? No, she's an elementary. Maybe she did it for the whole elementary school.
Brady
To a snake in front of her students?
John Holmberg
It doesn't say she taught a grade. It doesn't start with second grade. Teacher is that'd be writing? No, just as a teacher. Huh. What's her name?
Brady
Randy Brown.
John Holmberg
There it is. Google teacher Randy Brown. And let's see how old the kids were, by the way. You can't do that to anybody. You can't do that at work. You can't do that in high school. College, maybe college in a certain science class. But you can't take. Take a cat and just say, this one's not gonna make it. You take it to the vet. You don't feed it to a snake.
Brady
It says, sorry, Randy Brown, High school.
John Holmberg
She was a superintendent.
Brady
Yeah, but they won't release teacher at Alvord High School. Oh, experienced educator and animal lover.
John Holmberg
Well, not all animals. Kittens that she like with the sniffles are going in a snake. If you love animals, you don't force feed one to another and get pleasure out of it because that way that's proof to me you love one more than another. If I'm willing to feed one animal to another animal, there's clearly a winner in that. In my love rankings. You're still staring at that page. He's gonna find it. He's gonna find something. He's gonna find some sort of infinite.
Brady
This story says the teacher described as an experienced educator acknowledged her decision to the class and allowed a student with parental consent to take the remaining ailing kittens home. And then one of the student that students fed, fed one of the kids.
John Holmberg
Time out. Oh, so it wasn't in front of the school. She gave a bunch of dying kittens to a student to feed A snake at home. That's a totally different story. However, also, what's she doing with so many sick kittens? Kittens.
Brady
The ailing kittens taken home by the student later died.
John Holmberg
The student died?
Brady
No, no, the alien kittens.
John Holmberg
Student to the snake. If he can't make it.
Brady
The headline says, teacher apologizes after feeding ailing kitten to a classroom snake. So maybe the kid was watching the snake at home. But that sounds like.
John Holmberg
I don't know why that would be a thing in the first place. A classroom snake. Yeah, it seems to be stupid in high school.
Brady
In high school I'll do.
John Holmberg
I know there are not.
Brady
In high school. Not much in high school.
John Holmberg
You can't even have, like, Santa Claus anymore in rooms, but you can have classroom snake. What, is Britney Spears gonna break in and do this the video again right there in front of you? Just. What's with a classroom snake? And you gotta feed it every once in a while while the kids are still there and you happen to have a box of starving, dying kittens.
Brady
I think Kirby's, you know, teacher. This was in elementary school. There was the, you know, the class guinea pig, a couple of hamsters.
John Holmberg
Okay, that's just a weird thing. It's. And if it's not like a animal class, if you're going to mass and the dude's got to feed his animals every once, well, he's a bit distracted. Classroom snakes, probably not a good idea. Especially. Where did she get all the. I've got too many questions.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Is there any journalism? Where are the kittens coming from? Why is there no vet in this town? Why don't you take the kittens to a vet and go, hey, are they gonna make it? And then, no, they've got dying kittens disease. And we're gonna put them all down humanely. Can I take a couple of them and feed them to my snake? No, you creep. Holmberg's morning sickness. Holmberg's morning sickness.
Brady
This company called Flock safety provides drones.
John Holmberg
To police departments for the Ravens, Flock nation.
Brady
Ooh, they're gonna need them.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
So they're saying they're going to now provide. They're trying to get clearance to provide drones for stores like Target and other department stores. And they'll in the follower.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Shoplifters.
John Holmberg
Yeah, they'll follow everybody. Well, no, like, they.
Brady
They walk out of the store, say.
John Holmberg
Say what they're really gonna do. Brett. Gonna follow black people around the store. Come on. The black people can't punch the guy following them.
Brady
They call the drones flying hellcats.
John Holmberg
Now. Because they'd steal the drones.
Brady
Can I venture a guess?
John Holmberg
Oh, this is gonna be brand new.
Brady
The brand new Queen, Creek and Gilbert. Targets aren't having drones.
John Holmberg
Oh, well, I bet you they do. Here's what they'd have to do to make this work. Everyone gets followed by a drone at least once. Or every aisle has just a drone going back and forth. You cannot just go. You can't hear the words. All right, I'll be right back. Wait in a car. And then you hear like, ah, God damn it. Yeah. Never mind. I can't go in there. The planes are out. Don't do that.
Brady
Well, the other thing is, they got to figure out, you know, with the faa because they're drafting new rules because you've got more businesses that are using drones to delivery.
John Holmberg
Sure.
Brady
Now you're gonna have a little air traffic.
John Holmberg
Well, in the target. It shouldn't affect air travel outside. It's not gonna get in the ways of helicopters and stuff. If you're inside target.
Brady
Well, no. It follows you the house. You step out and it follows them. Takes them all the way home. There's a little armada at the door outside.
John Holmberg
You steal something and they don't call the police. It follows you all the way home.
Brady
They'll call the police afterwards.
John Holmberg
I'm the black person being followed all the way home. The lawsuit is extraordinary. If I didn't steal anything. Because that's a major violation of your privacy. Second. Throw a rock at it. Yeah.
Brady
Or see those videos.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Just shoot it. That's what you're creating here. I can't imagine that they would have. The target would lock on a dude, and you got to fly it. They're not gonna. They're not autopilot. So there's a new feature on drones that like. Like, Negro tracker that has, like, a thing that just, like. It just knows to follow one all the way home. This is terrible. I want to become a lawyer to just reap the benefits of this. I'll be on TV in a heartbeat. Me, Kevin, Rowe, Holmberg and Low. They handle the accident injury. I'm like, black people. I'm. This is ridiculous. They won't be in Maryville. They'll be shot out of the sky. Of course, because that's the Patriot missiles. There's no way. Brady's right about that. There's no way. They're just like. That'll follow you all the way home. Tyrone, make sure that you didn't take anything. That they can't do that. That's so illegal in every Direction.
Brady
Follow him for eight hours.
John Holmberg
What if he lives in Tennessee? Who's flying it behind him? It's not on. It's. Unless it's on Auto Negro. There's a band name. Yeah. I hate this. And I'm white. I can't imagine what it feels like in the African American population to go. Wait a minute. What? Yeah, Drones. Just suspects for. For shoplifting. We're just gonna follow you all the way home now? Really? You think that's happening? I need the blackest lawyer in Phoenix to come with me to that and just pick something up and put it near your pocket. And if that drone even goes, we're suing everybody. Yeah. And all you have to do to get away from it. This guy. Open up.
Brady
We got one.
John Holmberg
Ryan's right. Ryan's right. If you notice that you were at the target and there's a little plane following you afterwards, go to the airport and get target in trouble.
Brady
Do we have a Jackie Childs in?
John Holmberg
Oh, we got Jackie Childs. I would drive directly from the target on 44th street in Thomas. Right into air travel. Right into it. I don't know what's going on. This isn't mine. It's just following me around. I got a tan this weekend and now this target drone won't leave me.
Brady
Alone like a lost puppy.
John Holmberg
Puppy? Yeah. It follows them around the store. It can't leave. Somebody has to fly it. Unless it's got GPS on blacks only.
Brady
The picture they're showing is outside, maybe.
John Holmberg
No. If it's in the parking lot and it's just floating around out there to follow you to your car so it can identify. To tell the police had a blurred out head. Yeah, but it's not following you back to 59th Avenue in Indian school. No way. And I love.
Brady
And that's a Gilbert mom.
John Holmberg
It's a Gilbert mom.
Brady
There's no way. Come on.
John Holmberg
In the artist rendering.
Brady
Feel like crazy.
John Holmberg
In the artist rendering, they used the peach crayon. That's. That's just to put you off. We all know. I was with my friend Reggie at Walmart. I saw it in action. We were in the TV department. We couldn't leave it. Guys, can I help you? Yeah, we're just gonna go pay for this. No, you gotta pay right here. And I looked over. I'm like, it's because of him, isn't it? And the guy's like, what? And I'm like, just let us. We're not done shopping. You can't leave here until you pay for those TVs I'm like we're gonna you see no big Walmart is. I'm gonna wander for a minute. No, I'm like it's. It's him isn't it? And that dude went like pale ghost white. Like I've been here before with a cart full of TVs and I got to keep shopping. It's because of my opaque friend isn't it? And Reggie was just like just paid for the tv. So I'm like you're right. And I said ironic coming from you. That's irony.
Brady
Reggie, is that a drone above us?
John Holmberg
Yeah. Reggie, why are we being followed by planes? You don't normally get followed by planes. Oh of course. Yes.
Brady
I mean yes.
John Holmberg
I almost let the cat out of the bag. That is the most racist thing I've ever seen or heard of in my life that we're passing office security but you know how that's going to get abused. You absolutely know how that's going to lawsuits ain't that they should just write that on the.
Brady
That's the name of the.
John Holmberg
And then the greeter would be like oh welcome to Walmart. Thanks for coming in. We got one.
Brady
Help yourself to whatever.
John Holmberg
Wheels up, wheels up.
Brady
You know like a sniper marks the target. That's what he does.
John Holmberg
Mark the target and the greeters start hugging you and dropping air tags in your pocket. Got it.
Brady
Target has a hundred drones and it's.
John Holmberg
I I there's so many. If you were. I mean it's not like at least sometimes security mall guys are subtle isn't they'll know. And the worst part is you can't follow people of color around the Walmart because it's going to cause problems. And imagine when Karen gets followed around the target. I don't see an upside to the drones in a shopping center at all. You don't think you're following Talon with an eye and Y around target or what? No, because he's gonna wreck the drone. He's not dumb.
Brady
Especially when you paid for it. I paid for this?
John Holmberg
It's been following me well before you even check out. If you've got something following you up and down the aisles and you see that pimple faced kid two aisles over with a remote control eyeballing you with the camera. That's the worst thing I've heard. I want to apologize to everybody not white because that is the worst thing I've heard in forever. That's. That's wildly racist.
Brady
Shoplifters could soon be chased by down by drones.
John Holmberg
Yeah, it's not going to happen. They can be.
Brady
Now they're going to arm them too.
John Holmberg
They're just going to start shooting at anybody. Like I forgot to pay for this Heath ball.
Brady
It'll be like those ones we've seen and that the Ukraine war fusion where they fly over and they just drop the little hand grenade.
John Holmberg
Yeah, that's. That's going to get abused in a bad way.
Brady
I got a couple of Brady videos.
John Holmberg
This guy says please create a drone company and name the premium model D Roan. Hey man, I'm D Roan. I'm just following my players around.
Brady
Around. First one is from the scuffle zone. It's a stadium fight.
John Holmberg
Oh, this guy. Not a very crowded.
Brady
Climbs over two rows. I know this is during co. Oh it is cuz it's Miami Stadium.
John Holmberg
It's the Dolphins. Oh yeah. Everybody's got to be like three rows apart. Except for that gaggle of whites in that corner. Oh, he's. That's a bad idea. Yeah, good move. He tries to climb up three rows by climbing over the seats and by the time he gets within kicking distance of the guy he's mad at, he takes one in the chest and goes back downhill.
Brady
Dude.
John Holmberg
Yeah. And you're not in exactly the most balanced space. The guy front kicks him right down there. Three rows. Right where he started too. That's the best part. Did he go back? No, that's just repeating. Oh, that's repeating. I was gonna say. Wouldn't it be great if he didn't? It's just over and over kept go it.
Brady
Next one's from Good Day New York. Oh, got the fitness instructor in there. Looks a little bit like Adam Ray, by the way.
John Holmberg
So the.
Brady
That's who I was.
John Holmberg
There we go. Oh, and then he just throws a lady in there.
Brady
He was holding on to her legs, told the K. What kind of insurance do you have? Not very good.
John Holmberg
I have to tell you, I'm really sorry, lady. I'm not really a fitness guy. Madam Ray, comedian. This is my new character. Oh my God. Came right out of the shoes. Sorry about that, bro. But hey, listen, don't exercise in heels. That's a lesson.
Brady
Let's, let's.
John Holmberg
Yeah, he's. He's. She's not doing pull ups.
Brady
Yeah, hold the crossover.
John Holmberg
Yeah, she's just holding the bar while the guy lifts her, crosses her legs. The only workout happening there is the fitness instructor is lifting that news lady up on the bar and then she can't even stand on the earth without falling down.
Brady
Next one's a motorcycle accident. He gets rammed by the motorcycle in back of him. It's off the bike, ghost riding.
John Holmberg
Now, the motorcycle has a camera on it. On a gimbal, too. And it's just.
Brady
And then this guy.
John Holmberg
And then it rams into another bike by itself. This bike. This bike hates other bikes. That's what it's saying. Oh, man, that guy's leg's broken. Oh, my goodness. That's no good. Yeah, the dude hit him in the back tire. Yeah. And he popped him right off the bike. This thing goes for another five or six hundred yards. Yeah, the camera's on that gimbal. Or is it?
Brady
That's where I was trying to find. I'm like, the cam. Those cameras get rid of the gimbal, the pole that it's on.
John Holmberg
Oh, they do.
Brady
Yeah. They. The software automatically gets.
John Holmberg
That's neat. That's real. Yeah. You can eliminate guys that have it.
Brady
On a long pole. It looks like they're just skateboarding, but.
John Holmberg
They'Re holding their own camera. No kidding. What if they just get one of those d roans? They will now busy at the target.
Brady
They will now. Next one's a little quality protesting here. This guy's getting a little cocky.
John Holmberg
All right. He's talking to a bunch of dudes to the side. Yeah.
Brady
Oh, I better.
John Holmberg
They're chucking some. Call it boom. They're chucking cement blocks. Rubber bullet. Yeah. They're chucking cement blocks at the cops who have their big shields up. And this dude's just standing there a pair of sweats, and then somebody hits him in the balls with a rock. Well, he's being. He's, like, waving his wang in their face.
Brady
I think he's Irish.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah, that's. That's a rough punch to the nuts with a block, and I like that. The people were on his team that were throwing rocks at the cops decided to still hit that dude in the nuts.
Brady
We got another bull fight fight video, and this one's charging up like a hellcat. This arena has sold out advertising.
John Holmberg
Look at all those billboards. A lot of billboards.
Brady
So just starts revving up.
John Holmberg
All right. He's got. He's always kicking. He's doing that bull kick with his legs, and he's about to start running. Oh, man. The matador ran towards him first. And the matador gets within, like, a foot of the bull's face, and he goes right into the matador. Oh, they just drag him out because he's. He's already dead. Oh, my God. That was an Absolute disaster.
Brady
By the way, was that D. Roan on the commentary there?
John Holmberg
I don't know. Charging up. Yeah. Wow. Why. And that's actually. The bull stood still. The dude ran into him. Yeah. The bull took, like a step.
Brady
Yeah. And he took a. I mean.
John Holmberg
Oh, he just got head on horn that a bit.
Brady
Delmar Hamlin.
John Holmberg
Heart stopped.
Brady
What do you think happened to that dude?
John Holmberg
No kidding, man. Yeah, he just went like. The dude is full blast running towards.
Brady
The bull, dead center punch.
John Holmberg
That's dumb. All right, Brett, what do you got? All right, it's Monday, so we're a little light, man. Man. How about some bowling in the hood? Okay. We're in Maryvale. We're in the middle of a road. Oh, there's gonna be a lot of cussing in this. There's a lot of people. Oh, and then there's just people standing in the road, and a car just comes and knocks them all down. What? All the yellings about, oh, here comes. Oh, it's like an ultima just smashes into everyone. And they all popped out.
Brady
Gordon's old Cavalier.
John Holmberg
They all got right up. That is a resilient group. They took that punch pretty well. Well, all right. Here's a lady getting hitched.
Brady
Oh.
John Holmberg
Oh. It's a fat lady sitting on the Honda Pilot. And it's a tow hitch. She's putting it in her. She's very naked and her breasts are very long. And the tow hitch is very unlucky. Oh, God, look at it just hanging around.
Brady
Hanging around.
John Holmberg
Just start the car and drive away, please. She's got her boobs all tatted. I know. They got heart tats over her nipples, and they're just gross. Thanks, Brett. That one was tough. Can I watch people getting hit by a bull again? That was gross. Oh, all right. There's a boxing match. It looks like kickboxing. It looks like.
Brady
I saw that. This one is this bare knuckle boxing.
John Holmberg
Oh, he just got punched in the face.
Brady
Caved in his entire face.
John Holmberg
Oh. Just collapsed his nose and his orbital. Orbital bone. Oh, we got slow motion. Oh, slow motion. Nose bloating. It mashed his nose into his face. It's. It just disappeared his nose. It turned him into a bad 50s cartoon character.
Brady
Did he live?
John Holmberg
He's not gonna be happy.
Brady
I want to follow up.
John Holmberg
Yeah. All right. There's some guys jacking around. Okay. He's got his wiener out in the car or something. Nothing. No, he's got a grenade in the car. He's in the passenger seat of a car. And he just. No, he's rushing. These people are. Oh. Oh, God. Come on. You gotta be kidding me. I can't. Oh. Okay. Get out. We just pulled it. Sure enough. There's the car after they made it out, right? Yeah, yeah, they made it up.
Brady
I thought it was going to go off.
John Holmberg
I didn't know that was. That was suspenseful, Brett. I literally started shaking a little bit like I was. But I'm like, the camera can't make it. All right. Oh, boy.
Brady
Foreign object.
John Holmberg
See an X ray. There's an X ray. Oh, my God. The guy wrote a. Oh, handlebar. He put. He went over the handlebars. He went over the handlebars on his bicycle. And the handlebar and the brakes went in his ass. And the X ray shows that the handlebar and the brakes are in his ass. And the brake line. Look, the brake line is all the way out his leg.
Brady
Okay, so did that go in his hip and come out his ass?
John Holmberg
Because that's what it looks like. There's a lot going on in that X ray because the brake line is out of his thigh. The handlebar's in his ass.
Brady
Yeah, that jabbed through the hip.
John Holmberg
The brake is actually in his thigh. Oh, I don't even want to know how that entered him anyway. That went in was bad. Actually. Probably would want it in my ass because at least there's a hole there already, right? I think he had several holes invented that day.
Brady
Oh, they just kept it in there.
John Holmberg
All right. Oh, I don't know y. I don't know what this is. We're in a pool. There's a Gilbert Goons. There's two Gilbert Goons and a girl, I think. And the girl is having normal sex with one of them. And then another guy. Guy has his butt in the guy's face and his wiener in the girl's face. And. Oh, now the other guy starts to lick some butt. Oh, you got. And there's another dude filming this. They're on vacation, too. That's the crazy part. They're in some sort of villa. Oh, my God. I don't even know what this is. There's a lot of close friendships that I've never experienced in this video. I've never wanted to get that close to another person. Oh, here's the third guy, comes and puts a cowboy in hat. Give him his hat. Yeah. One of the other talents needed. His participatory cowboy hat.
Brady
Somebody else is enjoying the pool.
John Holmberg
All right. Mouse guy's good. Oh, now he's just. Now he's riding the shoulders. I don't know how that's even pleasurable doing this. Oh, because he had a cowboy hat on. That's why he. So he got up on his shoulders and he's starting to ride. The girl is just taking it all. And now here's an overhead shot. They're still going. Now we're in a more traditional Devil's three Them, where the man is working the mouth and the other man is from behind. And that's just how it ends. Well, that was. It turned into love at the end, which is good. We're all here for that. Nice happy ending. Great weekend. That's a nice love weekend. Thanks, Brett. Yeah. You know, you started with scary stuff with that, and then you ended it with a load of love in a pool. And I mean loads of love drone following people around stores and is I. I gotta call Kevin Rowe immediately. Just go cancel all your appointments. Start another wing of your eyes. You're gonna make so much money. There is no arguing that this is all bad. And I can see all of Gilbert going, why is that bad? Well, I'm not going to take anything. I should. Okay. You don't get followed around stores already. I've never seen anything as bad as what I saw that time two times. Once with Reggie in a parking lot after. We were at a bar and we didn't want to drive. It was late. And a cop drove by on the street and saw standing in the parking lot and slammed on his brakes and came back. Everything okay here? I'm like, yeah, I'm fine. And Reggie's like, really? He goes, just making sure you guys are okay. And he's looking right at me. Are you okay? Blank twice. Everything I wanted to do, put my hands up and go, no, I am not.
Brady
I believe the Gilbert mom said they can track the loons walking out of the store.
John Holmberg
Yeah, that's exactly it. And then you get the thing that happened at that Walmart. I'm telling you, when you confront the guy asking you to never leave the section he's patrolling, can Reggie come back to town?
Brady
We can reenact that.
John Holmberg
So. And Reggie Graham. Reggie was so cool about it, but I'm like, is this thing of. Come on, that dude's dead. His eyes on me the whole time. And we started laughing. I'm like, just pick stuff up and then hand it to me and see what he does. We weren't allowed out of the section. I've had people know if you buy electronics, you can't leave the area. And I'M like, why? Why? It's just a policy we have so there's no theft. And I'm like, h. And yet I was here like 3 days ago buying stuff. And I walked right out. And when I just said, it's him, isn't it? And pointed to red. Oh no. I hadn't even noticed him. I don't notice color. In fact, I thought that was your shadow. I'm sorry. I didn't even see a man there. I just saw an individual white man with his imaginary friend. I don't even know what's going on. I gotta go home. Drone followed us around. That cart was pretty crazy though. It had like shower curtains, televisions. It was a Walmart shopping experience. It's great though. There you go. That's your Brady Report, everybody. Watch out for those drones. It's 98K upd, Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. This head fully erect, still streaming Homberg's morning sickness online@98kupd.com so very late. My fault, as usual, was the drone talk. And then I got a text from somebody that said, a rather interesting thought. Scott Haynes. Why does Minnie Mouse get a star in the Walk of Fame? Isn't it? He's right. Minnie Mouse. Name one Minnie Mouse feature thing. They're all Mickey movies. It's like giving Jeff Bezos's ex wife a star. She made all her money off of him. It's like Miranda Gates or whatever her name is getting a star in the Walk of Fame just because Bill got one.
Brady
Melinda.
John Holmberg
Who cares?
Brady
Yeah, her too.
John Holmberg
See? Exactly. Point man. I never say dill Gates. Oh, you mean Bill. Oh, right, of course. No, we all know that one. Yeah. Why did Minnie Mouse get a star she didn't deserve?
Brady
I think Mickey demanded it.
John Holmberg
No, Mickey wouldn't want that. Mickey came from the 30s. He was still mad about the voting. He was borderline a Nazi. You forget, the dude that invented Mickey wasn't exactly on the cutting edge, the of of progress. He just liked drawing the mouse. A lot of weird stuff back in there. That's interesting. Good point though. Minnie doesn't deserve a star. She got one simply to, you know, sell another character, which makes sense to me. But come on.
Brady
Broads, broads.
John Holmberg
Some sort of a feminine power thing. Speaking of the wnba, I have been put in a pickle here. I made that weird claim a few years ago when the Diamondbacks made the World Series that if they beat the Phillies to get to the World Series, I would quit being a Cubs fan. Well, damn it all if they didn't do it and I to my word, took all my Cubs stuff down and have not really followed the Cubs since. It was an easy transition for me because I got angry at the Cubs in 2018 and then followed that right through. They're really good this year and I'll probably have my heart involved in some of these games coming up up. But I don't have the love for them I used to have. I did abandon my fandom when it came to the Cubs, mainly because new owners made me kind of feel weird about them. I no longer had that tie to the Cubs anymore. Then I said that I would get a tattoo of Brady naked on my chest if they won the World Series. That can't happen. Sons of started to do pretty well in that thing and I got real worried so I was rooting for the Rangers real hard. Luckily that one didn't happen happen well enter 2025 and go right to foot and mouth disease that occasionally I get. And a few weeks ago I said that I would get a tattoo of the Phoenix Mercury somewhere on my body if they won the championship. I didn't even know they were in the playoffs, to be honest with you. Some guy called in, said he goes to the games and we were making fun of him. Turns out they are in the playoffs and they're in the like some over the weekend. Sometimes they won a game that made it. So they're going to the girl basketball finals. I didn't even know they had that. I thought they just stopped playing when football started. Well, you know, they were playing during summer.
Brady
They made the playoffs because a couple of teams said they just wanted to end it.
John Holmberg
Yeah, well, one of the girls, the weird one is like one of the girls who's straight on the team that was going to win. The like girl. That's what. Yeah, exactly. That's what they were surprised by. But she's like the head coach and she goes ah, my husband and I are going to go on vacation before he has to go back home. Had it scheduled before and it was way before the playoffs. We didn't know. So a couple of girls were already going to go. Some of the other girls had cruises so they it conflict. So two or three of the teams so there's there they have a championship for the wnba. I didn't know that. Well, the Mercury are in it and the city Brady, you know it and I know it is just clamoring for more Merk Ball. We are. It's crazy.
Brady
Merkball fever.
John Holmberg
Merc, wait, don't say that because they might play the fever. Fever. You can't get the fever because the fever might be coming.
Brady
Merc ball mania.
John Holmberg
That's right, Brady. We got the Merc Mania out there, and people are losing their minds. Jersey sales through the moon. The moon, Brady, I want to play a little merc ball. You and I have been going over this off the air, and I'm going to put Hubbard's money on the line. They've done it with mine. I'm going to put Hubbard's money on the line. You don't like the amount I'm gonna put up?
Brady
What'd you decide?
John Holmberg
$100,000. No trip is gonna roll over in his grave. He's not even dead. Yeah, he can fire me and that'll be fine. $100,000. There you go. Run your mouth again. I am going to ra. I am. You almost got. You almost lost it last time with the tattoo. Shut up, Brett. Don't make me afraid of it. Just saying. I've been arguing with Brady off the air about it for 20 minutes. He wants to get are, like, maybe $5.
Brady
Well, yeah.
John Holmberg
You actually did go up as high as 10,000.
Brady
10,000, baby.
John Holmberg
Compared to the numbers I'm throwing out. This dude's. Dude, this dude's different. I'm going to now randomly dial a number. If the phones would work. They don't. Good luck with that. They're not working. Are you serious? Where's the thing I turned turn on and off? Oh. Might have just saved the company a hundred grand. I'll do it, and I promise you, Phoenix looking up. That's how they can look it up all they want. If I get lucky enough to randomly call. I need some suspenseful music here. If I randomly call, we have listener.
Brady
15 million listeners here.
John Holmberg
Locally, we've got loads of listeners. Gotta stretch because the phone's rebooting. Loads and loads of listeners. If I have to pay it, I will. It's gonna take me a few payments. No, Vic the checkbook out. Yeah, it's good for ratings. It'll be national news. Local DJ jackasses his way out of a hundred grand. That's a good story.
Brady
They'll say, why? What about. Well, because you ask for.
John Holmberg
Because all I did. Yeah, they might not do that story because I'd be like, oh, that makes women mad. I will randomly call. Merc Fever sweeps the city again.
Brady
Merc mania.
John Holmberg
Oh, that's right. I did it myself. Merc mania sweeps the valley. Give it a shot. See if them phones work. Yeah, you get them going now. I think. Nope. Oh, man. I might be getting lucky. Why don't they wait? Work? I don't know. Does that one work? We have two phones. One of them go on the air, though. That one's for the interlude.
Brady
Calling in for the Merc Mania.
John Holmberg
Well, you can't call in for Merc Mania. I only call out for Merc Mania. Merc Mania in the finals against the Aces andor the Heat. But our station doesn't work. It's probably cuz Trip heard you giving 100 grand away. Sh. The lines down. David, the track ass is going to do it. Looks like you owe someone 100 grand. You know what I could do is take the 100 grand and buy a new phone. Sesto.
Brady
How is this.
John Holmberg
So I think David's here. You want me go down and get him? No, cuz then he'll just stand behind me.
Brady
And you can't do a random number on the. Like, call them from our cell phone?
John Holmberg
No, cuz he'll never forget the audio.
Brady
Never answer.
John Holmberg
Well, they would. I think it comes up. Does it come up kupd? No, it just comes up. A random number, I believe. Huh. All right, starting to blank. Maybe there's something I got going on. 100 grand. And if in fact I dial a number just with my little finger, give me a 602, 623, or 480. Let's give the west side some. You know, I'm a nice guy. 100 grand. They're gonna lose their mind. I know. Brady, give me a number for the first number, I shall dial.
Brady
2.
John Holmberg
Beautiful. Brett, give me a last number. I shall dial 9.
Brady
I guess. I don't know.
John Holmberg
I'm gonna write this stuff down. So we've got a six, two, three. It begins with a two, just ends with a nine. All right, I'll fill in the other five. Good luck.
Brady
The phones will work.
John Holmberg
They don't. Oh, wait. There was a button that turned red. Is that a line? What are we doing for. No, no, no, no, no. Don't you. I'm. What are we doing for 100 grand? How come I can't hit a button and make it work? But I just answered the phone. We already unplugged it twice. Oh, oh, this dude's calling in again. There's one lot. We have one line that works out of the jack, keeps calling in. You can pick it up. There's a guy on the line, there's another one calling. And now you can call in. You can't call out. What is going on? Here.
Brady
We have to dial it out.
John Holmberg
Quit calling in. Quit calling. Everybody stop calling because you're breaking our phone call down. Oh, my God. What a technological beast. Alexander Graham Bell had a better setup. Hello, Watson. Hell, two people with string and cans has a better setup than this. Oh, my sweet Jesus. We already unplugged it before. All right, Brady, I'm gonna boost it up a little bit while we're waiting. 250. I have that much confidence that not a soul will know the answer to this question. Not a soul will know what I'm about to ask. Quarter of a million dollars of mine and Hubbard's money. I gotta have a 623 chips. Porsche's gonna be going sideways in this parking lot. You know we're on the hook for that. Oh, and I also have to, once I get hold of someone, ask permission for them to be on the air. Oh. Because we can get in trouble for that. So I'll do that. And remind me of that. I. If I don't, what do they get?
Brady
What amount of time do they get to answer the question? He's got to be quick because people.
John Holmberg
Once I start to realize you're going to your phone, I'm. You're out. Yeah. So, yeah, we'll be quick with that. Wow. Christmas tree over here. All of a sudden. 250,000. Ready. I'm that confident. You're out of your mind. Maybe a little. But I'm so incredibly confident now. No one will know. Well, K wins again. The phone is broken. I'm serious. People are going to think that I. That I'm faking that the phones are broken to get out of this. But it's my own creation. Where the Bob's at? It's my own creation you're going to hear from.
Brady
That fit was horrible.
John Holmberg
Shall I use my magical fixing stuff powers? No. No. Tends to be that I've got a reputation for hitting stuff that's broken. Broken. And it goes right back to working again. Come on, Fonzie. This is all. I heard a beep. All right. I don't know what's going on. We're gonna fix the phones. I'm gonna do this on the other end of the break. How about that? Does that sound right? Yeah. You don't seem nervous at all, which means that you're not gonna click. Trust me. Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Well, in order to make this work, I have to find. Find somewhere in the budget. 250 grand. I think you're pretty nice looking at me. You're pretty nice knock down on that Toledo are good. We may be down a kidney and a Brady. We're going to get this room back to even kidneys. If I lose this bet, we'll fix. We'll fix the phones. I'm not screwing around here. All right, we'll try it. Is it working now? Their phone. They're calling in. How come they can call in and we can't call out? Are we trapped? Yeah. Is this a Jordan Peele movie?
Brady
Him?
John Holmberg
No, I'm going for more. One of the ones people wanted to see. Like get out. No, the buttons work, I think. Way to go, Fonzie. Yeah. Nothing. David hates when I do that.
Brady
Oh, there's gonna be.
John Holmberg
This isn't Arnold's in the jukebox.
Brady
You're gonna turn it into an automatic 250.
John Holmberg
Oh, man. Well, then good. Then I'll turn that money into a charitable donation to the phones so we don't have to give you. We'll give you 100 grand and we'll put 150 into our phones. So is it 6, 2, 3 and then you said 2 to start and 9 to finish? Yeah, they just randomly boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. The middle ones. If we ever have a phone that boop, boops. 250. I want to go higher. I started at a million, just so you know. Off and Brady and I were arguing about this. I give a million dollars away. This is easy. Toleda's dusting off. Another thing. You're out of your mind. What if they get it? Great news story. Station should be happy to pick that up. We'll be national, be a huge story. We'll be like Mr. B. Beast. Five bucks. No, 100,000. Get a finy in.
Brady
We'll start with five and build star five and like, ask him and then we'll continue.
John Holmberg
Come on, man. This is too good not to try. My tummy's spinning. It should be 250. Really? Seriously? A little nervous that if this goes haywire on me. You thought the tattoo was bad? Oh, yeah. I'm not going to be able to get that tattoo. I won't have any money. I'd have to sell some stuff. Nobody's going. Nobody's getting it. I'm convinced it's merc mania, though. You see all the people walking around in their Merc jerseys. I mean, the whole city on Merc game days. People have the flags on their houses and things.
Brady
A bunch of buildings.
John Holmberg
That's your neighborhood. You need to move, say, right now, if you've seen a Merc flag on anybody. Yeah, just move. Yeah, that's. That's. That's akin to having one of them Palestinian flags. You just got terrorists in your hood. All right, let's see. The phones are doing lights. There's lights. Toledo, You've made lights. Yeah, we had lights before, too. Yeah, we've had lights. It's not our first day with lights. Hit a button.
Brady
Still restarting.
John Holmberg
Oh, it is. You know what? I don't have a problem with that home and never did in the 80s. I never had to go, I got to call you back. I got to restart the phone. Never was a thing. This was Internet phone.
Brady
You never had to crank it.
John Holmberg
Well, yeah, and that was still at work, though, this one. I wish I could find the crank. Hello, May, can you connect me to 275, please? Call it ADP. Get a hit. Yeah, I'd like Transylvania 633, 501 Pittsburgh. Yeah, please hold. Or get your party on the other line if you don't find me. How's your day today? I'm fine, thank you. We have a little trouble connecting to that line. Would you like to try another line? No, no, Mabel, I'll wait. How are you? How are you doing? Is your health well? I'm fine, thank you. Hi, Sam. She's fine too. Thank you for asking. She still got consumption? Yes, she's. She's got an 1890s consumption. You kid's stealing an iron lung. Well, they gotta get to that polio virus eventually, but yes, he isn't. An iron lung right now. I believe we have a connection out. Sir, please, I. Nothing. You've got two phones in your hands right now. None of them are working.
Brady
And he's got a pen.
John Holmberg
Dammit.
Brady
He's taking a pen to the.
John Holmberg
All right, well, wait, I'll keep the. I'll keep the numbers that you gave me. The six, two, three. Was it two and a seven? Two and a nine? Two and a nine. I think Brad took two. Yeah. Start with a two, end with a nine. Yeah. Yep. Okay. Of course. People are texting me. Text this now try this number, see if it works. Oh, yeah, none of them work. All right. I mean, I can't dial anything. Dial out. Look, meathead, I'm not gonna call you, you moron. All right, we'll take a break. We'll try to get the phones fixed. I'm serious about this. I will do this. People thinking I'm skirting it because they. I think the phones are broken and I'm using it as an excuse. I'm not. I'll use my phone and just hold it up.
Brady
That's what I was saying. But the odds of the person answering.
John Holmberg
Yeah, it is true.
Brady
I mean, it's still rolling the dice. You could try it.
John Holmberg
Yeah, but does your name come up when somebody calls on caller id? That's the problem. Ramon Wad probably wouldn't answer that. Johnny Sins calls you. It's 905. We'll take a break. I'll give away $250,000. V. Answer my Merc Mania question of the day. I'm comfortable with this. I want to go higher. I think we can go higher. Hopefully we get it back on it. But if you've got a phone number that starts with the 6, 2, 3, starts with a 2 and ends with a 9. Is that right? Keep thinking there's. I think so, yeah. Starts two. I mean, doesn't matter. Not really. I could just keep that just going random. I'm just gonna smash my fingers up against it. Whatever happens, happens.
Brady
We could try it on the phone. On a cell phone phone.
John Holmberg
Come on. This is ridiculous. I'll even let people think about it for a day and tell all their friends. With six. Two threes, twos, and blank, blank, blank, blanks, nines. Dude, that's your phone. Tomorrow, they still won't answer my question. I guarantee it. All right, it's 906. If Toledo and get him fixed, we'll do it today. Otherwise, Merc mania waits another 24 hours. And you know what? For every day we can't get the phones to work, it's another 50 grand to whoever answers my question correctly. We don't get it done today, tomorrow. $300,000 mania. That's right. I'm that confident you're out of your mind. I'm that confident you're out of your mind. And I hope a lady answers. There's my big dream is that a woman answers, and she's a little bit rough. Even still, she might. You won't know.
Brady
You reached the core.
John Holmberg
Yeah, I'm hitting right in the center of the planet Mercury. You're gonna get Guten Tag on the phone. Oh, my God. Hey, man, what's going on? Homberg asked me that Merc Mania question, man. Tell you what. Manutra Dooner is gonna have a hell of a game. Probably put up 12 or 13 points, five rebounds, man. MVP. The. She's on that theme, too. She's like number one or 30. I don't know. It's 907. All right, we'll take a break. I'll see if we can get it fixed. It's 98kV. Merc Mania in the house. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect. 98K. Still streaming. Homberg's morning sickness online@98kupd.com. Well, we're getting screwed by these phones. And now I'm gonna look like I'm afraid. I ain't scared. Now it looks like I'm chickening out of this incredible idea I have of Merc Mania, man. The Merc Mania.
Brady
I'm bummed out too, man.
John Holmberg
This. This run to the championship, too. All these iconic moments when the. The Mercury played. All the people are talking about. Did you guys know that there was football on yesterday? Yeah, I was watching. I was watching.
Brady
Why would they do that?
John Holmberg
I don't know why. Why is the NFL so dumb as to place regular season football games during Merc Mania? They're out of their minds. He's losing money hand over fist. That away. Anyway, I. I'm going to do this and I'm going to prove my point that there is no Merk Mania. And I will randomly call somebody in any other city. We got a NBA team in the championship. You call someone in that city. No one would ever risk in Oklahoma City right now making a call saying, name one starter for the Thunder. Which one? Sga. Check. Homegrown. You got like, you can rattle off a bunch of Williams. You got a bunch of them. But with this, I could randomly call anyone in the city, comfortably. And again, I put 250,000 of my company's money on $250,000, to be clear, American ones. And not in. Not in Brady sauce or some sort of weird T shirt extra exchange. Real cash money, JG Wentworth style. And I am confident. And you know what? I will. Because our phones are broken. I'm gonna punish the company even more. We bump it up 50 grand tomorrow. What I'm telling you. But now it looks like I'm afraid. Like, our phones are broken. I'm afraid, which I am not. I just. I just know. And this could go completely bad for me because if somebody gets it right.
Brady
Have we.
John Holmberg
Oh, no.
Brady
Have we tried the phones later in the day? Like when Larry's on. When we do that Brady, they magically work.
John Holmberg
Oh, it's a controversy. Yeah, it's shut off to keep us from doing crap like this. Conspiracy theory checking. We've been hanging around Nash too much.
Brady
You know the phone A bird group.
John Holmberg
That's right. It's Possible anyway. Well, we're working on it. We got engineers everywhere but in here working on it. So we'll try that. See if these awesome. And even our engineer. When I asked Dave, I'm like, what is this? And he goes, oh, it's technology for the sake of technology. This is a better system. It just says Internet on it. So everybody's like, well, that must be the future. They don't work. And I know what people email. I have Internet phones in my office. They work just fine. Yeah, but you're not taking hundreds and hundreds of calls and then trying to make them. They just don't work. They overload constantly. Too popular. All right, Brady, are you ready to try to solve all the problems but the phone one?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
All right, it's time for what would Brady do? Everybody. Son of a. Buy some phones at work. And maybe if you're a decent person and I do call you randomly and you do answer this question right, and you do win, what will be Tomorrow's Merc Mania? $300,000. I'll go up to five. I'm comfortable there. I might start there. I'll be so angry tomorrow, maybe 500 for Merc Mania Rando calls. But, you guys, it's on you guys to say John, don't forget to tell this person they have to give permission to be on the air, because then you can get in trouble. Trouble. That's the only thing I'm worried about giving away the money.
Brady
That's okay.
John Holmberg
I'm not gonna have to do it. Okay, look, Brett, I've made these bets in the past. Do I have a tattoo of naked Brady on my chest? No. I know what I'm doing. The unnamed Mercury will not win the championship, so I don't have to worry about that tattoo.
Brady
And you hope they even stay on because you like. Would you like a shot at trying to win $500,000 the person made.
John Holmberg
Yeah. The person may just say, ah, it's a scam. That's what. Yeah, actually, I'd hear that. And I might get myself. So we need to Tractor supply. That's right. Still waiting on the generator. It's coming. I don't know how I. I don't know that I'd answer it, to be honest with you. If a phone call I don't expect is coming in from a number I don't know. I don't. I wouldn't answer it. So we run into that. Maybe that happens.
Brady
Traditionally, you'd open up with the. This is the radio station calling.
John Holmberg
That's Right.
Brady
Then people might. Yeah, this will be interesting. There's going to be some.
John Holmberg
Some.
Brady
There could be some hooks.
John Holmberg
Yeah, it's. Hi, It's John from 98 KUPD radio station here in Phoenix. And you know what's crazy? This person that we randomly call may not be here because people who lived here and moved away, they keep their. So it could be somebody way far away. Who knows. We'll find out if they ever answer, but we'll know anyway. It's time for what was ready. I'm excited. And you know what? It $500,000 tomorrow and maybe even today if we get phone sick tomorrow. 500 grand. I'll go up to a million. I am so confident that no one will answer this. I am so confident that Merc Mania will. We will randomly call.
Brady
Your answers. Don't answer. Like, are you. Did you want to partake in Merc Mania?
John Holmberg
No, I'm not even saying. We have a trivia contest worth up 5. Screw it. $500,000 tomorrow, today, if we can do it for Merc Mania. And I know, I am so comfortable that there is a. I mean, there's still a chance, but it's in the 90% chance is I've seen the numbers that everybody's avoiding the sport like the plague. 90 to 95% chance. One of the questions I'll ask the person is, where are you standing right now? And if they say Diana Tausi way and Jefferson wait, I'm hanging up. I'm not playing with them. That's the rule, right? Doesn't count. You can't be staring at the banner. And even still, you know what? Screw it because I've been down there. It's just pictures of the broads. There's no names. Merc mania tomorrow. $500,000. We don't have that. We don't even have phones at work. We don't need that kind of cash. Yeah, we can't afford phones. A promotions department. Nothing. 500 grand. I'm putting it on the line. And I know the station's going to be like, I don't know how you're paying this. They're not going to help me out. So this is on. I'll have to sell that rental property a little. That little side money. That man.
Brady
You won't have to worry about that.
John Holmberg
I'm not going to have to. I'm not at all even slightly concerned. I'm very excited, though. It's time for what would Brady Do? It's brought. Brought to you by her. I'm A little nervous. Brought to you by our friend. Sit Mo Money find. I'm fairly scared to death, to be honest. I'm hoping they just hang up. That's my dream call. I'm hoping there's like ah, you and then they hang up. I be great. 500 grand. It's mo money pond. 12th street in Indian School. I maybe maybe needing those boys as well. Just drop a bunch of stuff off there. MMP guns. I'll hop in there as well for own personal use and then you can check it all out. MMP guns has everything you've ever needed in the world of guns and the stuff that comes along with it. Nice new waiting room too right there. And they have that little space there. You can sit down. They just put that wall out and they put a little area in there you can kind of wait with while you're going through the motions of getting your stuff. MMP Guns has everything. It is also one of those deals where you think about, you know, is it CD operation is what? No, it is one of the nicest stores I've ever been. Clean, beautiful, super clean. Everything is great. You feel like you're always being dealt with squarely and they're awesome people. So right there, 12th street in Indian School. Mo Money Pawn has MMP guns right inside. I am admittedly a little shaking. Better have Byron on speed dial just in case. Yeah, there I buying some Steelers gear. Five hundreds of push. I'd have to sell that house.
Brady
The process, it's not too, you know, take several minutes.
John Holmberg
Yeah, I can take but it's only up to 100,000. I need five.
Brady
Maybe you can stretch a little bit.
John Holmberg
They know you. Maybe they'll do you a solid. Can I get half a million? Like sell your house. I'm like, I'll sell the rental, but I would. How about that? How about that? I'll give you my rental house.
Brady
Wow.
John Holmberg
It's probably about 7:40 something. 750. I'll give you my rental house. You're not getting it. It's a. I might as well ask in cry lock. The language of an I might as well ask. You're not going to answer it. Here we go.
Brady
Study up, study up.
John Holmberg
This is a good one. And I don't. This. This is. We're late to the party on this one. When I read this this morning, I thought to myself, we should probably do what we're ready to do early. But then we got into this. Now it's late. So I said, dear Brady, I am not a racist. You know it's bad. You know, it's bad from here. So I have a pit in my stomach you can't imagine. I'm a guy who tries to get a laugh a lot of the time.
Brady
Times.
John Holmberg
So sometimes I do say stuff that is unexpected, but I'm not trying to do it. That's a good thing. You're funny, but you're not trying to be, you know, shocking. Sunday afternoon, the 49ers lost to the Jags. I was thrilled while the game was going on, and in a text thread with about nine dudes, as I am on every Sunday, I realized I was winning the football pool with that win. And I said in the thread, I just curb stomped you guys. Like from American History X. And that was not signed by Brett Veslaker. I'm a Bears fan. That's right. Dropped the N bomb. One of the guys in the thread is obviously not going to be comfortable with that. He's a black guy. And he stayed quiet through the whole thing. Hasn't said a word. Heading to work this morning, I have to realize I've got two options here. My friend text me this morning and said, you realize Laron was on our thread lesson. Right. Our thread last night. Right. And I said I did. And I can't stop thinking about it. Do I apologize first or do I just act like no one saw it and let him see something and. Or say something? HC he threw the N bomb in a text thread.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
The dude didn't react. So do you go to work and say, yesterday I was super excited or.
Brady
Thought it was funny.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Or just. It just flew out of me.
Brady
I'm going to Laurent direct.
John Holmberg
You are?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
He hasn't said a word yet.
Brady
I. I was being funny. I mean, I was joking and I was kind of combining. I thought American History X going direct.
John Holmberg
You still can't say the end bomb.
Brady
And that's what he'll most likely tell you if he's.
John Holmberg
If he's not punching you. Yeah. What if he didn't see it and you just went up and said, but he.
Brady
I gotta believe that. Well, I was gonna say, I gotta believe that this wasn't the dime. Like, he knows Lauren well enough and.
John Holmberg
He'S in the thread.
Brady
He had to know he's in the thread.
John Holmberg
Well, he could.
Brady
They've had a.
John Holmberg
But maybe Laurent's just in the football pool and put in.
Brady
The thread's brand new.
John Holmberg
This year's never been there.
Brady
You're in trouble, my friend.
John Holmberg
Do you think it would be beneficial to just go up and hey, La Ron. First off, let me just say I'm sorry for any language that might have bothered you. Second, I'm not going to sit and tell you, oh, I'm not racist. I'm not. This. I don't know if you've seen the Internet, but it's almost all racism. And I fall into that sometimes for humor's sake. And I really screwed up. I'm not going to say. I don't. I'm not going to pull the bren of it and go, these are words I don't use. I'm a man of faith. You don't try to build yourself back in. Just say. I say it sometimes. I'm not gonna lie. I text. I say it as a joke. But there's nothing in my heart that says, like, I mean it.
Brady
I don't mean that.
John Holmberg
Probably shouldn't have done it. And I feel really bad.
Brady
Yeah. If. And if. Which I think he does. I think you clearly. Sincerely. But what's interesting is. And then I would also take it to the rest of the group and say, hey, this was a little.
John Holmberg
Little. I went way too far. Here's the other thing.
Brady
And I reached out to lan. Secondly, what happened to this text? No one responded.
John Holmberg
No one said a thing.
Brady
That's.
John Holmberg
Unless it was one of those moments.
Brady
Surprising. Because then you. Then they felt it too.
John Holmberg
Everybody clammed up. Yeah. Or they just went about their business and maybe it passed without their. The problem I'd have with that if I was lan is I'm sorry you saw the. That Not I'm sorry I did it. You know what I mean? Like, he's going to hear, oh, just because I was in. It makes you feel bad. Not that you do. It makes you feel bad. Did he use a hard R? That's. That's a good question. You know, changes things. Still no good. No, it's still bad. But it. It's worse. Yeah. Still no good.
Brady
That's crossing the line.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I'm uncomfortable for this guy. Guy. Yeah. And any white person that says, well, I've never. It's a liar and it's worse. And if you've, you know, like a joke on an. On the Internet memes, you don't even have to say it anymore. The Internet provides you with low. AI is being used mostly for racism in every direction. So is it good? No. But is it out there? Yes. Is the realist in me say, oh, boy, here we go. Go. But o. That's uncomfortable. I don't like that at all. So you go to him and you basically say, you don't have to like me anymore. And I don't blame you for doing it. I'm not going to lie and act like I don't do this, but I'm super sorry if that hurt your feelings. It was stupid. And don't say I don't do that or I just can't believe, dude, you. You lined up your 30 year old movie reference and reference day point. You've used this line before and that's.
Brady
Where you get honest in it. Well, they, you know, because they did it in the movie, then it's okay for me to.
John Holmberg
Nothing in American history X is okay to continue on. Well, they did a movie, so I can do it.
Brady
Well, I'm just saying it compared to like. Well, it's. It's the lyric in this rap song.
John Holmberg
Sure. You just don't want to make excuses. Just say I, I did it. Yep, I own it. I suck. I admit it. It's not the first, it's not the last probably of me being stupid with jokes like this. That's the worst. It's not the last. I prob probably will do something dumb again with this in the future.
Brady
With that being said, now pay me my money that I won this.
John Holmberg
Right. And also take that Jags over Niners Domino mother. And then text. Yeah, and then text God hates Jags. And then have the gay guy in the thread get mad. Yeah, that's a tough one. And how about this? This little incident has taught me that I'm too cavalier with what I think is fun and not. And I'm never going to use that word again, I promise. But I. I'm not going to lie and act like I haven't. And like this was a one off. Oh, that's a toughie. Dear Brady, my mother is 67 and she's a lesbian now, which is no big deal, but she's also kind of a lesbian. I'm finding she turned les and started going sexually insane. I live with her because I'm going through a divorce. So I wake up to get food in the kitchen. Kitchen. And there was a giant butch broad. This comes traipsing down the hall with a fresh sheen of mama poon on her face.
Brady
Okay, not buying this.
John Holmberg
Too far. Well, he's not saying he actually saw it. He's being funny. He's being. Yes, that's right, Brady. Even though he's incredibly accurate. If there's a butch lady, she got mama poon on the mouth. I can't leave the house until January. But I'm kind of glad I saw that. This three partners in the last 10 days. Can I tell my mom she's being a. Is it my business? What do I do, Trevor? Mom is slaying. Mom's crushing. How you doing, man? My name's Jay. Morning. You making eggs for everybody? Speaking of eggs, I think I hit one of your mom's last night.
Brady
Yeah, I know, I know. I'm living in your house. Rent for free, all this.
John Holmberg
Well, we don't know if he's not. We don't know if it's rent free. He just knows he's got to be there.
Brady
Not much you can say.
John Holmberg
Gotta tolerate that glazed lesbian that works down the hall.
Brady
The sheen.
John Holmberg
That shiny lesbian that's in your house, man, there's a glow about me this morning, man. I know. I see my mom's got this vulva sheen here. It's good for your face, man. It's like snail goo. Oh, rub that on there. I watched Ellen do it once, man, her face is always perfect.
Brady
I. You're gonna have to basically endure that until January.
John Holmberg
You wouldn't tell your mom? Hey, calm it down a little bit. That's three in a week.
Brady
Not until. Well, the only the.
John Holmberg
I would.
Brady
One way you could.
John Holmberg
You gotta pee blocker.
Brady
Is if you know what's going on and she's not caring.
John Holmberg
I don't think. I think she needs a pee stopper. Like, she didn't need to be Pete blocked. It's like, hey, you're doing fine. What are you going for the record? What's with the volume? You've got. You've got a house guest.
Brady
I think your mom would be, you know. No. If you could. If you know that's going on, knock on the door.
John Holmberg
I can hear you. Oh, God. What if they're being quiet, though, and you just have.
Brady
Impossible.
John Holmberg
You think the lesbians are loud all the time? Oh, no, no. There's no slapping happen. What is his mom. Brady doesn't like to think that it can be pristine and beautiful. It has to just sound like a car wash. That's out of control. Come on.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
Hey, man, your mom turned me into a donkey. Never been dunkeyed before. Your mom's powerful lesbian, man. You gotta tell her. You got a house guest. Can you. Can you ratchet it down a little? I'm up there having my Cheerios and I gotta look at Gutentag roll through the kitchen. My ass is on fire. Your mom's got big hands. And pour me a bowl of that, too. Would you? Your mom knows how to choke a girl out. My left eye still blur.
Brady
It's tough. But you can counter it with the multiple partners, too.
John Holmberg
Well, then she has a right, though. It's her house.
Brady
You know what? Get out.
John Holmberg
Come to you and say. All right, that's enough.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
That's disgusting.
Brady
Yeah, you could say something. I don't.
John Holmberg
What are you doing? And lesbians are notorious for first dates and then moving in together like it's a stereotype they want to get rid of, but it's them. Like, they'll go on two dates and there's a U haul. Like U haul is their second date is the joke. So if that glazed one walks by every couple days, she's just going to live there. That's your new dad and some fresh Sheena mama.
Brady
She's had three auditions already in a week. Yeah.
John Holmberg
Don't peeble.
Brady
Did you like any of those?
John Holmberg
Yeah. Pick the one you like and try to, you know, coerce your mom into going that direction. The one that is particularly a little bit more matte than shiny.
Brady
What do you bench, man?
John Holmberg
I look like eggshell paint. Look at me, I'm glowing. Anyway, squat. Your mom. All right, that's enough of that. I still want to give that money away. You solved it. Nice job. Sorry, La Ron. We had nothing to do with it, buddy. That's a tough one. That made me uncomfortable. There you go, everybody. That's what Brady did. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect. 98k, still streaming. Homberg's morning sickness online@98kupd.com man, it is weird. Radio used to be a place you'd go and breaking news, stuff like that would happen. And we'd be the ones that go, this just in. And then you'd hear from. From us for the first time. Today. I get to break news twice that nobody knew until they heard us say it. First, obviously, the Mercury in the finals. And I know no one knew that until we talked about it. Second, this just happened a little bit ago because the Mercury are in the finals. That Jonas Brothers concert that was supposed to happen last night was going to happen tonight. Now the Jonas Brothers canceled because they're like, well, it's just a nightmare. I got to keep the floor down here. And we can't together. So now the Jonas Brothers won't even be here. They're not going to be seconded. And one up by the Merchant. I think they knew that it was Nick. Good guys. And Frank and Tommy Lee. Tommy Tommy Lee Jonas. He's always out there doing his thing, bro. Singing songs about girls dancing and ponies and such. I'm Tommy Lee Jonas. The third Jonas brother no one ever talks about. I want. Wish that were true. I'd go to that concert. I'd follow them all over the world. I'm Nick. I'm Ronnie. Whatever their names are. I'm Tommy Lee. I'm Tommy Lee Jonas. You remember me from no country for Old Men. I don't know what songs we're gonna do, but I'm sure we're gonna perform them. Tommy Lee Jonas is my favorite. Cuz they dress him up all Jonas Brothers. And he'd have to do the dances. I don't know any of their songs. Jonas Brothers could have been a halftime show. Now we're about 3, 2, 3, 4. Let's get right to it. Out the door.
Brady
Maybe he'll bring him out there.
John Holmberg
Tommy Lee, ladies and gentlemen, is my sons. Tommy Lee Jonas boys, the Jonas Brothers. Thanks, dad. You're welcome, Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike. Spy like a girl. Who cares? You like? Cool it. Now. They were originally. You didn't know that, but that was originally who the Jonas Brothers were. Was New edition. Then they changed it to the Jonas Brothers. Learn something new every day. Anyway, if you had tickets to the Jonas Brothers, that's canceled. Now for some reason, they can't. I don't understand it. Like, here's what I don't get. Canelo Alvarez fought Terence Crawford on a Saturday night at like 11 at night. And the Raiders played there the next day, same place. Full setup and breakdown of a boxing arena. Clean the whole place up. Got it done. You can't get.
Brady
You just had to flatten it out a little bit. And then they roll on the field. Good to go.
John Holmberg
Okay, but it still takes some time. All you have to do is take out, like 35 blocks of wood and set up a sound system. They can't get that done in a day. They built a gondola for that fight that hung up down almost to the ground, I think it would be.
Brady
Well, depends on how complex the whole.
John Holmberg
It doesn't make any sense, brother.
Brady
Lighting and structures that they come out in and.
John Holmberg
Oh, yeah, I guess that's true. They could fly in a spaceship. Well, they. Parliament. Yeah, we're gonna capture the spaceship right in the middle of PHX Arena. I had two dreams about this last night. And we didn't play these shows either night. I cancel it because of them lesbians. Tommy Lee Jonas not happy at all. He's Storming around downtown. If you want to meet him, he'll probably be at the arrogant butcher Right next to the pal. Supposed to be singing and dancing, which is what I love to do. They took that away from me. Oh, shoot. I don't care. I like that impression. It's my favorite one. It's 9:55. We got the entertainment drill coming up in a minute. Sorry, Jonas fans. It's 98 Morning Sickness Holiness. That's Scott taylor. I guarantee you that Scott taylor. Brett just had to endure somebody's ass issues, by the way. Back to the what would Brady do? The good news for the guy who dropped the end bomb in the thread and nobody is favoring you at all on my emails at all. Dude, who threw that out there? But the good news is you probably don't have to worry about laurent for another hour and a half when he gets to work.
Brady
Didn't get him before.
John Holmberg
Well, he's. No, no. Well, how if he doesn't show up until 11 or so.
Brady
Well, 10:30, he's on the road.
John Holmberg
No, he's not. I could be there for a while. You got time to gameplay. I'm allergic to our phones. Didn't get them fixed. Guy said if you're calling the west valley, john, There's a good chance that one of the mercury actually answers because that's where they can afford to live. Buckeye or even further. I don't know. I'm gonna give it away or I'm not gonna give it away for 500 grand. $500,000. Getting excited. It's time now for the entertainment drill. It's brought to you by our friends over@reactdefense.com that's the home of tactical black self defense training. Get on out there and get yourself in great shape doing some stuff and get you, you know, more prepared for walking around these beautiful. You know, we're gonna be on trails now. The weather's getting nice. You're gonna be outside more often. You know who else is out there, Brady? The looney tunes. They're hanging around in weird stuff. Stuff. Doing weird things with weird objects. And they train you for all of them up there. Best part is you're probably not gonna need it. That is the best part. You have fire alarms in your house. You probably have a fire extinguisher in your house. You have carbon monoxide in your house. Why? Just in case. Doesn't mean you're rooting for it. But it does mean it might happen. So why not be a little bit prepared? It's not paranoia to be prepared. Why not treat your body the same way you treat your position possession and start making it so it's you're able to defend, you know yourself in case something goofy happened. Like that Machete attacks. I've seen those on tv. People getting goofy. What do you do if somebody comes in and starts screaming and yelling road rages. All these other things. How to de escalate and how to take care of yourself in case the escalation meets you. That's all you have to do. And be in good shape while you do it. It's just a great workout routine. Can't wait. Going there later today. It's reactdefense.com that's your home. Home. Tactical Black Brady Entertainment.
Brady
Owen and Luke Wilson are now each playing golfers in separate streaming comedies.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Wow. How about that?
Brady
Yeah. Owen's in the Apple comedy Stick.
John Holmberg
Wow.
Brady
And now Luke has just joined Will Ferrell's upcoming golf comedy for Netflix called Stick Other Stick. They don't have the name yet, but I guess Luke, his character is going to basically beat Will's character character for a tour championship twice. And so that's the. The beef there.
John Holmberg
That sounds great. You sold me. I'm completely sold at the comedy there. Yeah, that's gonna be the beef, he says. So Luke beats Will twice in what, 55 plus golf.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Yeah. That's gonna be exciting.
Brady
Jonathan Kite was telling us the story about the big comedy fest that happened in Saudi Arabia.
John Holmberg
Huge.
Brady
The Riyadh Comedy Fest kicked off this weekend. Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, Louis ck, Pete.
John Holmberg
Davidson all took Giant money to go.
Brady
Shane Gillis turned it down. He said, I took a principal stand. You don't 911 your friends. Friends. Mark Maron. His quote was, how do you promote that from the folks that brought you 9 11, two weeks of laughter in the desert.
John Holmberg
They've done more than 9 11.
Brady
I know.
John Holmberg
Isn't it? I mean, they're def. But I mean, we still don't go from the folks who brought you Nazis. We like German now. It's been 25 years. I think we can start going. All right. Have they been pretty good since then? As far as we know.
Brady
Know most of it. I see. Like, like, I think Jonathan was talking about that. Some of these comedy comedians upset because they weren't offered there. Tim Dylan agreed to do a set of the festival, but he pulled out last minute because of the comedy. But he was offered $375,000.
John Holmberg
The joke about Tim Dylan is he never pulls out and he's Also gay. The last place he needs to do comedy is Saudi Arabia Arabia. They don't. That is one thing.
Brady
He said he was uninvited because Jonathan mentioned. He said they. So what if they have slaves? They're paying me enough to look the other way.
John Holmberg
Yeah, yeah. I, I don't know. If Saudi Arabia offered me enough money, I'd go over there and do a show. It doesn't seem.
Brady
Well, they got the soccer league. They got.
John Holmberg
Yeah, I'm not stopping that. Yeah. I mean if, like, if the whole government isn't trying to stop Saudi Arabia from everything, what am I gonna do if they want to give me a few million dollars to go talk to Saudi Arabians? Okay.
Brady
WWE has run shows there and including WrestleMania 43 in 2027.
John Holmberg
Yeah, there's where that's a thing.
Brady
There's a 10 foot bronze statue of Tina Turner that was unveiled in a ceremony on Saturday in our hometown of Brownsville, Tennessee. And it's a 10 footer and I think 2ft of that is the hair.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
Surprised you didn't have one already.
John Holmberg
Look at that hairdo on that statue. That's amazing.
Brady
Long fingers. 50 donors contributed to the statue, including one hundred and fifty thousand dollar donation from the Ford Motor Company. Looks like Paul Stammer because you're building an electric truck factory there.
John Holmberg
Looks like she's wearing one of them new Guardian helmets.
Brady
Yes. Romeo Dobbs.
John Holmberg
Yeah, Romeo Dobbs in a dress. That's not the first time somebody said that, Romeo. You remind me of Tina Turner with that hat on.
Brady
And it's confirmed Snoop Dogg will return NBC's Winter Olympics coverage. He'll be doing.
John Holmberg
Yeah, well, the Sklar brothers told us about that with Snoop Dogg and then also the, the Kevin Hart and Keenan Thompson shows back and they're going to be like a ton right in that and they're going to do their own thing. But they get to write with Snoop Dogg in the Olympics. They get job with the Olympics. Great. That's neat. All right, that's it for us. I, I'm sorry that Merc Mania didn't get a chance to go off today. We'll have our engineers. Don't give up. We're not up on Merc Mania. The price has doubled from initially my two hundred and 50 to 500,000American dollars. There we go. That's right, Brett. I'm comfortable with it. And by the way, see if you can catch me because once it, if you answer that, I'm just running, I'm just going to run away. You see it wasn't me. Yeah, it was, but I'll be, like, gone. I'd start looking in Saudi Arabia. Oh, look, I'll join Al Qaeda to get out of this place. Pickle, it's 1108. We're done. You guys have yourselves a grand Monday, and we'll see you tomorrow right here in the morning sickness. Hello, Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect. 88.
This Victory Monday episode of "Holmberg's Morning Sickness" spans from the NFL’s weekend chaos to the controversial WNBA finals and a slew of irreverent, humorous takes on pop culture, sports, and news. With the usual blend of sharp sarcasm and self-deprecating jokes, the show covers football, the Super Bowl halftime show debate, women's sports, technology (drones for shoplifters), and delivers the infamous "What Would Brady Do?" advice segment. Throughout, John keeps the tone lively, challenging, and "disturbing" with a running thread around his outlandish betting promises, especially the "Merc Mania" Mercury trivia bet, which is complicated by their broken phone lines—prompting more rants and comedy.
