You're listening to the HMS Podcast, brought to you by MMP guns.com your most trusted online marketplace for firearms, ammunition and accessories. Still streaming Homberg's morning sickness online@98kupd.com thanks, Miles to Nowhere. There's Katie and the Hob starting off our day proper beautiful Thursday morning. And people there commented, it's very interesting. Me, Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman. It's nuts. Chris. Chris DeWitt might have the best analysis of the entire situation of fame versus normalcy and how we as normal people look at them and go, oh, terrible. But we can't understand their lives. And we try to place our lives in their world and just. Chris says, I never understood the corporate quote. You know how much puss you're going to get being famous? End quote. Then you get famous and you get married, dumbass. Keep that P train rolling, pushing. Pete, listen to rappers. Rappers are the only ones who are honest about fame. Gunna. I'm pushing P. That's all he talks about. I was gonna nail that. Yeah, he's got songs all about just like, move. That's. There's vaginas here. I'm gonna take care of that. Never sings love songs. Never like Snoop Dogg. We don't love them now. Always talking about, like, look, I'm famous. This is not. Don't stick around. That ain't coming. Ain't no fun if the homies can't have none. I'm going to pass you out to the others. We don't care. I don't love them, though. And girls will be like, hey, he's going to change for me. Or they find the right partner. It's like, you do what you do right. Just don't. Oh, the ones that are just. Yeah, like Magic Johnson had. Cookie was just like, just don't bring it home. And then I got some bad news. Cook. What is it? I brought home aids. Yeah, you just can't do that. It's. I mean, Snoop Dogg had female admirers and bitches ain't but tricks and hoes. That was a lyric that wasn't once, twice, three times a lady. That was ain't with tricks and hoes. And women were throwing themselves at him. That's how unusual it has to be. Scott Haynes says Nicole Kidman did a movie Sleeping with that young man. Women went crazy for it. Keith saw it, got upset, hold my fosters. And that's exactly how it went down. He's too loud about it, though. So true. Remember John Eaton yesterday that was mad about the scientific accuracy of Jokes Guy says, morning, Holberg. The John Eaton you spoke of used to be a co worker of mine and I 1000% agreed with your assessment of him. John is a know it all, stick up if it's a stick up his ass. Never getting laid, research of pee, but never gets it. Oh, yeah, he knows nothing. Also, the guys in the shop all listen to your show and we couldn't stop laughing. Please keep it up and leave me anonymous. I need my job signed, Larry. All right, well, I'll keep you anonymous as best I can, Larry. He left a good impression, John Eaton. Yeah, yeah, he did. He walked. Well, you know, there was a kid we. We kicked out of a slumber party in eighth grade. We had a bunch of people over. My friend John Stevens house and this kid named Mike. I forget what we were doing, and this is going to sound gayer than it is, but we needed Vaseline for it. And, yeah, I don't remember what we were up to. Wasn't what you think, but there were like five dudes. And for some reason we were up to something that required Vaseline, but it wasn't like penetration or anything. I don't remember why we needed Vaseline, but Mike made the point at the time to say, after John Stevens went in to get Vaseline, I think we were building something. We read somewhere that Vaseline might be a propellant or a. We could build a bomb. I think that's what we were doing. And so Mike came back and he goes, why do you call it Vaseline when it's petroleum jelly? And I looked at him like, those are words I don't even know. Like, you can't eat it. It's not jelly. And he goes, it's petroleum jelly. And we're all kind of stopped. Like we were having fun building this bomb and now Mike's ruining it. Well, look at the jar. It doesn't even say Vaseline. Vaseline's a brand name. Petroleum jelly is the product. We're like 14, dude, calm down. And later we're like, yeah, we don't care, Mike. Well, I'm not even. And he was so frustrated that John just said, you can go. Get out. Go home. Get out of here. Kleenex? Yeah, Kleenex, Xerox, Vaseline. And then. But later on I was like, he's not wrong. But why bring it up? That's the John Eaton's of the world. Yeah, fun though. And then you get nice things from people. Good morning, gentlemen. I'd like to start off by saying thank you for the Entertainment that you give me while I'm at work and also on my drive home. I live in Mexico, but I work in Tucson. So you also work in Mexico. You guys make my day a lot easier and less stressful. Thank you. And yes, Holmberg? I'm going from Mexico to Mexico, referring to Tucson as Little Mexico. Yeah, I just did that. Oscar, you live in Mexico and work in Tucson. That's how bad Tucson is. He's the only Mexican that heads south every day back into Mexico. He's the, he's Trump's dream. I like it when they head south on their own. That's what I say. Thank you, Oscar. You come up, you do your job and God forsaken Tucson and then you get in a car and say the last thing I want. You know what Tucson is the biggest deterrent to Mexican border crossers. Put them in Tucson. How about that? If you cross the border illegally, we won't put you in Alligator, Alcatraz or any of those jails. Brady, we're gonna, we're gonna get you a two bedroom place in Tucson and you'll want back in Mexico so fast. A lot of people say Tucson is worse than Mexico cause they've been there. Well, Oscar, I'm proud of you. You're getting it done. I don't understand that and I didn't know that was allowed to. What a pain in the ass Oscar's life must be. Every day he crosses the border to come here legally, works and then goes back to Mexico. He's got to be a billionaire down there. Unless what he's doing is trafficking drugs. Because I know that happens a lot to the back and forth on that. So maybe Oscar drops his work off by the U of A and then drives back to Mexico and gives he and his cartel friends a lot of money. But Oscar, I'm. That's, that's good on you, man. I couldn't do that. I don't like driving from the Biltmore to here. It's 11 minutes. Imagine hopping in a car. I mean, I'd want to leave Mexico every morning, but certainly not to destination Tucson. Yeah, you're leaving for Tucson now. Is this true, John? This is. I don't know if this is true or not. Said this guy evidently knows that John Eaton too. Says karma slap John Eaton so hard this morning for being such an aggressive person. He's stuck at a QT battling explosive poops. I'm not going to excuse him for being late either. Get your ass to work you one legged R. Word. How does he sign the rest of the crew. Everyone knows this John Eaton character. How do they know he's dumping a qt? I don't know. They must have, must have been a, like a, he might have text in it might be around a little late taking a huge dump right now and it's not stopping. I think I might float it out. You guys hear us often too. I'm getting, I'm going through the emails often complain about how and I'm not wrong and they hate talking about it and so none of them talk to me anymore and they don't like me. And I, I said it yesterday, I'm like, I wonder why everybody used to like me here in the, in the higher ups and now nobody does and it's because I didn't even put it together because I'm mean to them. I'm, I'm horrible to them. No, no wonder I started thinking, well, why would you think they like you? All you talk about is how bad they are at their jobs. And I stand by that. So of course. So I figured something out yesterday because I remember saying on the air I'm like, it does seem like for a while there everybody was like, liked me and then after a while like just shaking their heads like we hate that guy. And it's because I'm, I'm a jerk to them. I just realized it yesterday and I didn't even place them as human beings because they're so bad at what they do. I, I was, I was horrible and I had to realize, oh yeah, they're human beings. They're very insulted by me. So of course they hate me. I'm fine with that. But it came to that epiphany yesterday as I complained more about how terrible they are pulling more money from another thing and just never, never, ever going to invest in radio again and flip it on the other side. You feel insulted by the way. Well, look, I've been insulted, but they're not out loud calling me bad at my job. I am to them because they are, they've been on look, anybody on the clock over the last 20 years of radio in higher ups executive position is culpable for its failings. But they won't ever take the blame for it. They just keep spending research to see if the cult is still a viable song you guys want to hear. And I argue that they don't care anyway. This guy says, I work crazy hours and haven't listened live lately. But something that I think is very interesting when it comes to your Bob's Situation. Now everybody knows what the Bob's are. You've all got Bobs at your work. How many radio shows have podcasts? Maybe more than I think. I don't know. Have a huge following that will listen to it after it's already occurred. You do for radio. It's Radio Bob's. You have a following of people that may agree or not agree with the conversations, I would guess. I love it all no matter what, because it's one of the only places on public broadcast of any type that has an open conversation. It can still be an outlet on a daily basis for me to laugh. I have my own views like anybody else, but I can laugh at all of it. And more people should appreciate what you guys do in that arena. Damn it. He's right. Hire this guy. I. You should be a Bob. Everything is up for laughs in this place, and we need more of it. If the Bob's don't get that, F them, keep it up. Only show I've ever in my life followed in any way or on any outlet, and it's been 20 years of it. I need the last, because every day life just gets harder and it keeps getting worse. I need the last, and you guys deliver. Period. Thank you, Josh. That's right, Bob. Did you hear that? I spend another $75,000 to see if Smashing Pumpkin should get played nine times a day. See, and that's why they hate me. Brady and I didn't register that. Like, why do they hate me? Oh, because of that stuff right there. I'm a jerk to them. Couple of the Bob's, like, wait a minute. We're spending that much? I didn't know about it. Trust me. They used to spend more. We found that the cult is a 42% with your core P1s. Is that something we want to put on the air anymore? Or is it a gold. Or is it a recurrent or what? I don't know. Is it a good song? But the research says. All right, then cut it. No, we're not so sure. Well, then you don't know what you're doing. That's up to the program director. Oh, I see. You throw all this ambiguous research at another guy, so when it fails, he gets fired. Brilliant. It's consultants. That's. That's a consultant dream job. Yeah, yeah, it's brilliant. Here's all our research. It's hard to read. It's up to you now to figure this out. And if you don't, you're fired. And we'll bring in another guy. And I'll still be here. I've never heard a consultant say after. I've watched consultants take brand new morning shows and they're wildly, you know, erect and excited about this more. Oh, this is great. We're so excited about the new Joe show. It's gonna be huge. Now this person is this, this, this, and this. And we're gonna guide them and I'm gonna have daily meetings and everything else. Like eight months later. It's just not working out. They're not. We're gonna move on to another one. Like, you guys had something to do with that, didn't you? No, no, no. It's just their personality sucked. I'm like, isn't your hiring practices bad? Oh, no, no. It just didn't. We couldn't mold them into what we wanted. Like, oh, I thought you didn't have to. I remember the first email. It was like, this is gonna be great. Cause they're so good. What do you mean you couldn't mold them in what? And then they fire him and they bring on another show and do the exact same thing. Katie, KB is a perfect example. Like their eighth morning show. They've only been a station for 10 years. Holmberg's Morning sickness. And is he the only one that's actually made in headway? It took Ian Campfield coming on our show to be morning show of the year in some magazine. And that was after they fired him. Bob's. But again, I have to apologize to the Bob's. I'm sorry. I couldn't figure out how come you guys don't like me anymore. It's because I think you suck. I haven't figured out why they got so grouchy with me, but it's my fault. I'm a complete dick. And then you get this stuff. Brady, you're gonna like this one. This guy's unhinged. And evidently he's been emailing. We have a. What do they call that thing when the emails don't come to us, they go to that other message. Yeah, it's like a general email. Info@90akupd.com, I believe is our channel. Is that what it is? Yeah. Info@98kpd. So sometimes people email that and just think, I sit here all day and it's. That's me. Right? And so they'll start yelling at me or praising or whatever they do. But it's usually Toledo and I answering them. Right, that's you. And then Amy and Larry also get. And Amy just works. She's just digital and marketing and all that. So she's just down there and so she'll pick a few of these up. Larry gets them. He gets verbal voice messages. Well, sometimes, yeah, people will call that and think they're talking to me and they think I'm just like answering all. I don't do anything, which is what the Bob's complaining about. But Larry told me yesterday he's got this guy, but he goes, I never want to bring these things to you. I have no problem with it. He goes, he thinks you blocked him and he hates you. And he goes, I'm a little worried. I don't want you to. I don't want you to know about him. But I think he's one of those guys that could go off the rails. And I'm like, well then I need to know about it. Like that's a dude. I absolutely. So this guy evidently has been emailing non stop. And you know why? He hates me, Brady. This is exactly what he hates about me. I'm a gay communist Trump lover. He's okay with you being a Jew, though. I didn't before it was. I haven't seen any of that. Okay, all right, but think of that. He hasn't picked up on that. I'm a gay communist Trump lover. Trump lover. And I'm ruining the country. Congratulations. The last email because I said Larry, just because I had to tell the guy, I'm like, I'll respond to him because he's not emailing me and he thinks I've blocked him. So he just keeps throwing these emails out that are. Someone will get him. Well, no, he thinks it's me and so he thinks I blocked him. So all the emails are like, since you blocked me, you pussy. And you this, that, and your homosexuality and you're a communist Trump lover. And I'm like, I don't know if that's even. I want to try that someday. I think I'd split in half. So I emailed him yesterday. I'm like, hey, not for nothing, but your crazy rants aren't getting to me. I don't even know how to block anybody. I just skip it. If you're crazy, then I see your name, I just start skipping. Yeah, yeah, like you're. I try to have a regular conversation with some people who are a little nuts. And then when it turns to insults, I'm just, well, this isn't worth my time. I'm not doing that to you. Unless you work in vice presidents or anything higher up. Then I'll insult you. But so he text yesterday. And this is when Larry told me. He goes, you and KUPD, Mr. Holberg. It says, you and KUPD have turned the United States into a third world crap hole. You will not be forgiven. Collapse is now imminent. F you all the way to hell. It's crazy. And then he sent me a link to something and so I started to read the other ones. You homo commie. So I'm like. So I emailed him yesterday. I'm like, hey, here's my email address. Send them to me. So at least I know when you're coming. You know, one of those deals. And I know I got some. Some lunatic on a rooftop looking at me. So he emailed yesterday. Mr. Holberg may actually spell my name right. Actually, you did block me. I don't know how it says a person can select from general comments. Homeworks, morning sickness, Larry Fitch and Man Craven, Marcus, Susan, something called Rudy Bustios and Amy. I chose home birds, morning sickness for two and a half or three years. And you announced about six months ago you're going to block people. No, what I announced was if I could ever figure it out, I would try. I just don't care that much. So I've been sending you hundreds of emails. You blocked me or arranged that? I was blocked. Nonetheless, I'm happy to have a civil conversation with you, but we're not cherry picking topics. Everything's fair game if you're good with that and we can start at any time. You have freedom of speech and I accept that. I'll give you a day or two to catch your breath and we'll start a civil conversation. Remember, no cherry picking topics, including your sexuality. Big on me being gay. Wow. In return, if you have the ability to talk about the subjects that you believe pertain to me, I have no problem. If you think I'm gay, that's fine. Maybe bisexual or straight. I'm sure I fall somewhere between those three options. What? I don't care what people think of me. Most everyone I know has me figured out. The only person I've got to please is myself. I bet you've been pleasing yourself for a long time. Maybe same pertains to you. When you get to my age, you stop giving a sheet. There's a top sent hundreds of emails. Yeah. Cause he just doesn't care. He's at a certain age. You stop caring. He said. What topic shall we start with? Let's discuss your Grindr account. I don't listen to your show minute by minute, but very rarely do you announce Your email address Holmbergy akupd.com I suspected that was your email address, but I hadn't had the time to try it. You've had time to just fire off letter after letter, then it says, this is my next step. Take the weekend, watch some football and I'll be in touch. And thank you for sending me this email. I've gained a little more respect for you. And then he told me to check out. Then he told me he hates country music too, and that he only listens to female country music stars. Sorry if I've misspelled anything. I'm very tired. Be safe, Ernie. So Ernie was listening when we went on vacation, apparently in August. Okay, I reran when you created your Grinder account and you were getting hit up with messages, like even during the Brady Report, right? I think it even was pinging on the air. But for. Oh yeah, it was non stop. For three or four years he's been emailing hate towards me. But I'd like someone to explain what a Trump loving communist is. Right? Putin maybe, but I don't think he likes Trump that much. We're told no by Trump, we're told by Trump. I don't understand that, but more than happy to. I don't know how this show and the station that we work for has turned the US into a third world. Is it? Yeah, I guess it is. Can we all collaborate on a topic to start discussions with him? Well, I know I told him. I told him in the follow up, I said, so you pick it. Like you've been railing on me for three years. Evidently I haven't gotten one of your emails. So just go back and do your greatest hits and fire off a few at me that make me a communist Trump loving. Which made me happy because that means he has no idea where I stand, which is my goal. Keep guessing. But I'm not a communist. And I also don't love Trump. You are gay and. Well, yeah, I know. I play a gay on the radio for, you know, just in case we ever get in trouble. I can go. I can't yell at me. I'm homosexual. I identify as a homosexual. Just I struggle with it because it's so gross. So it's Ernie's fault for bringing identity politics into this, correct? I think, I don't know. But the emails that Larry was sharing with me yesterday, dude loses it sometimes. And I evidently have some sort of a way to manipulate the entire society into dropping all the usa and I'm like, I think you give me a little more credit than I deserve. I don't think I can actually destroy a nation. I'd like to think I could, but I don't think I can. It's strange, but, yeah, I have a feeling he's going to be showing up quite a bit. Showing up what? I'm just saying, emails. Oh, he's gonna pop up eventually. Having read what he's done in the past, we're gonna have to get the authorities involved. That's my guess. He did calm down a little bit on the response. Yeah, because we're all reaching out. All you ever have to do to somebody who's lost their mind is reach out and go, hey, I'm right here. If you want to actually have a conversation, I'm willing to do it. The problem we have is people lose their minds and only talk to people, and then they fire themselves up and they've never actually talked to the thing they're really crazy mad at. And then a human becomes a human, and you're like, oh, it's the level one to level 10. There's no in between. Everybody that was mad at Charlie, Kirk, or anybody else that was screaming and yelling and could disagree with him all day always said that once you talk to him, you're like, oh, now he's a human being. It's different. You know, Mike Tyson's famous thing. Everybody's got a game plan until you get punched in the face. Then you realize, oh, I can scream and yell and train for an argument I'm not actually in. But the second I confront the thing that I'm really mad at, that's gonna be different. There's a person now that's real me and the Bobs. I scream and yell about how much I don't like them, and then I'm confused with them. I'm like, oh, yeah, they're people. You're being a dick. Which is fine. And then my friend, the disgraced Dr. Jordan just text and said, you are a homo. F word. I like this guy. He's right. Thanks, Jordan. Yeah, that's kind of fun. I like that. Here's something that's insane. If. If you were. I'm gonna go out and maybe even piss off Ernie right now. If you love the cops, you're gonna like what I'm about to do. If you hate the cops, you have to take a second to set back and listen to what happened. This is an actual audio of a policeman pulling a person over in 2025. And I'll tell you right now, the reason I couldn't be a cop is because my. My taser would be deployed constantly in moments like this. This is a guy pulling someone over. Listen to the words. And the camera caught all of it. It's a. It's a. It's a. It's lengthy, but it's. It's so unbelievably. 2025. Here we go. Can you remember that I told you that non binary? Yeah, I'll try my hardest. I'll refer to you as Kai, right? Yes. Perfect. I need to know if you have any injuries or anything that would prevent you from doing a standard walker return tonight. Mental health, any physical injuries, Mentally out. No, I'm just saying. Depression, anxiety. I get you. What else you want? Very anxious in front of your left in a heel to toe touching manner with your arms by your side. Just like this. Ma', am. Not call me man, please. I'm trying my hardest. Okay, well. Okay. It means a lot to me. I'm trying my hardest. I don't feel, like, amazing, so. Okay. It's kind of triggering. Right foot in front of your left. Nope, go back. I'm sorry. That's a whole man thing. Just like. I apologize. Let's see if we can move forward from it. You have zero questions. No, but I just want to tell you that I suffer from really bad anxiety, especially with generational trauma and PTSD around white people and cops. She's white. It's just. I'm gonna speak with you right over here, okay? Yes, ma'. Am. Go ahead and place your hands behind your back. Don't, dude, don't make it hard. Please don't make it hard. No, you're. You're gonna get a resistance, dude. I. You're gonna get a resist. I don't. Don't resist. Don't. Listen to me. Don't resist. Don't. You're being a white man, and I followed all of your. Like, I'm an indigenous person like you guys. You guys are scaring me. There's nothing to be afraid of. Yes, there is. It's called generational trauma. It's generational trauma. Holberg's morning sickness. Holberg's morning sickness. 98 KD home. Bloomberg's morning sickness. It's called I'm drunk and I'm busting non binary alcoholic. It doesn't apply to you that you can lean on your non binary status and drive drunk. She was so. She was so, like. I was like, okay, maybe she's hot because she sounds so stupid, but. No, no, no. Also horrendously ugly. Right. And not she. They were drunk and they were stupid. I don't either. My favorite. You triggered me on that. Yeah, I'm triggered. That's my point. Yeah. Everybody who hates the police, that's what they deal with on a regular basis. Her phrase, oh, my God, you're being a white man. As if he has a choice. I would have tasered them multiple times, constantly just tasing. Just. I'm not doing. I'm not dealing with this. So to our police officers, occasionally we forget. Thank you. They should tase people more often. Yes. There's always a few that step out of line and go too far. That's true in every. Every industry. We trust them not to do that. They have a higher standard to live up to. But as often as we get through a day without anything bad happening and they gotta deal with that crap, you have to sometimes sit back and say, maybe I'm being a little too hard on them. You don't have to like them, but you don't have to assume that they're having the greatest day ever. And they just. I understand they're at a higher standard, but my God, you're triggering me with generational trauma. What the hell is that? I had to look it up. It basically means throughout generations of America, it has been passed down how terrible our ancestors were to other people, to us. And she's traumatized by it. For instance, I don't know. Slavery still traumatizes this young thing, and she can't deal with it. There's been wars. There's been all sorts of things that have happened through generations that she carries with her every day. And that used to be called sort out your crap and get over some things. You just. There's nothing. Which is why I don't test well. Oh, I do that all the time. I think that's a great move. If you can do it in a. If you can use it to your advantage, that's great. But if you're drunk driving, your trans situation, your identification doesn't apply at all other than some spectacular video. Oh, it's phenomenal stuff. But I. Police officer, and you know, this person is drunk. Yeah. Can you just skip all the testing and just say, need you to do the breathalyzer? No, you have to ask permission. That's what I'm. What I mean. So they say no. They say no. Then you just hook them up and you take them in for a blood test. You're going to jail. Can they eliminate the process of reasonable straight line. And here's the Thing that. Here's the deal with that. I'm not sure. I'm just asking. A lot of advice is given with, like, a DUI pullover to say, don't do their test. A lot of the times, don't deny them. Well, and just say, don't. But if they have reasonable suspicion, they're just gonna hook you up and say, all right, maybe you're not drunk, but we're gonna get a blood test. We're gonna take you down. We'll get a warrant for this, and we'll make it work. And a lot of times, I guess they can find out through the test. Oh, absolutely. Like, okay, they'll 100% find. Yeah, it's a little. It's a little tougher on them, and that's probably the truth that you. Probably more accurate. It's in your blood. Exactly. If you're drinking and you start throw, you're. You're asking for it. Either way, the best bet you've got. I think personally and I know lawyers would tell you the opposite. Do the test. Because, like, a lot of the times, the cops will look and go, I don't think you're. I think you're functioning fine. What else is going on? I watch Op Live all the time. These guys will make them go through. They give you, like, a thousand chances to pass that test. Half the time I'm watching, going, put the bracelets on this guy. He can't even stand up. And they're like. They're giving them all the chances. And you see times where the people are being cool, and they're like, leave your car here. Call someone to pick you up. We're good. Yep. You know, but the second you accuse me of being a white male, them's fighting words. You're being a white. God damn it. You. How dare you point that out. You can't say that about someone else. You're being a brown man, being a white man. But she got triggered when he said, ma', am, and she tried to turn it on him. I swear to God, to the police officers who haven't tased anybody yet, I don't know how you hold off. I don't know how you do it. I text that to my buddy Ben the cop, and I said, thank you. I've never heard your name mentioned in a terrible news story. And I know you've dealt with this times 10. And you've never, like, thrown a taser at somebody just for the fun of it. I would do it three or four times a day if I Could. I don't know how you tolerate it but sometimes we have to point out these dudes are good people, these women are good people trying to do their best and there's a few bad apples that make us think they're all bad. You accuse them of all being racist, which is exactly what you don't want to be accused of based on what you are, of stereotypes, by behavior of a few. Like us white men. We're not all toxic, most of us, but not all. It's pretty hilarious. But I, when I saw that I'm like, oh my God, this one says your email isn't platinum gay at Altaz. Who have I been talking to? You've been talking to my they, my non toxic white, a non binary host. That's me. I call myself Patience. It's crazy. So I personally believe that if you get tased by a police officer, probably your fault. Like 99% of the time if you're getting tased by a cop, it's probably your fault. I know that's going to rub some people the wrong way. Sure. Maybe he was pointing, threatening at one time and it went off accidentally. I don't 1%. I really think if a cop draws a taser on you at that point there's a reason to your fault. I don't know because I haven't been in that situation that tasers just get pulled out for no reason. Usually it's something terrible going on and the cops just pointed at you. Now if that were to happen, I know what I'm going to do. Comply immediately. And I get that some people aren't in on that train but okay, this one says I've not tased anyone but I have punched a few people in the face and I've pepper a few people in the face. It's super entertaining if I'm being honest. Thank you officer. Of course it's entertaining the way the body reacts to a tasing and usually it's probably satisfying because the person you taste would have deserved it. I don't know how some of these cops restrain themselves just using a taser instead of her. I mean constantly when I watched OP Live this weekend, a guy was coming after somebody with a hammer. I saw that. Yeah. And I'm like, pull the Glock. Yeah, get him. Why are you tasing this guy? Oh, all you'd hear on my radio constantly, it's Officer Humberg. I got a guy pulled over here. I'm going to take a look at his suspicion to dui. That's how that all sounds. And walk up to the car, wrap on the window. I didn't even say hello to the guy. I just immediately I deployed it again. I did it again to somebody was looking at me watching it. I got. I need new tasers. What seems to be the problem? Problem is I have a taser I haven't used for an hour and you were the closest. I would be a horrible cop. Oh yeah? Yeah. And this guy says I blame white people for what's happening. I blame all white parents for not putting a foot in their kids asses when the second they say they're non binary. Wait till you're 18 to start telling your dad that. I've always said this. It's the single mother's fault and they're doing a great job. But saying I don't need a man creates this. Because women's job is to coddle and emotionally support a child with love and hugs and everything's okay. And to make your emotions so valid that they feel like they're impenetrable. It's a dad's job to go in there and go shut the up constantly and remind you your emotions are going to do nothing get you in trouble if you let them run wild. Ryan says since it's a them, give them two charges of dui, two charges of resisting. I bet this s stops real quick. Yeah. Dad's job is to make it more pragmatic. Mom's job. And single mothers do an amazing job. But with with them saying I don't need a man in my life, they make it so their kids grow up very emotional. That's a woman's job. So if you only have the woman in the house, kids are going to grow up super duper emotional triggered by generational trauma. A dad would stop that. There isn't a dad in the world that's going to encourage your son comes home. Dad, I'm just having a hard time at school. Why? The revolutionary wars got me down. What? Get the over it. What? We killed so many English for no reason. Oh my God. I get a pussy on my hands here. I gotta do something about this. You're toughen the boy up. You go out, you take him in the backyard, you throw some Jaeger in his gut and you tell him, look kid, you can be the queen of England or a homeless person. Eventually everyone on this planet takes the pipe. You have to. You have to settle in and know that you're gonna get knocked around. Now shut the up. Quit worrying about the revolutionary war. Don't you feel bad about our history? Nope. My Taser would go off so much, it would cause radio interference. Yeah, we would be like, what's going on? Call the engineers. Officer Holmberg's close. He's tasing everything. This one says, I'm with you, Jewy. That's a new one. Cops should be allowed to Taser idiots for their therapeutic use. I Absolutely. That's what I would do. I'm not saying they should be allowed to do it, but I'm saying that if I was a cop, you'd see my dumb face on the news with the big eyes and the mouth wide open going, did I just. Oh, my God, did I do what they're telling me I did? Probably take a look at. There's some kids in a park and Taser deployed. Taser deployed. One looked at me. Taser deployed would be my nickname non stop. But, yeah, if you're. We need dads in the world. I hated that I said that years ago. I've been saying it forever. When I watch Maury Povich and the audience with Oprah, the audience would cheer when a woman would say, well, I'm raising them by myself because I don't need a man. I'm like, oh, not supposed to cheer that. I understand. This lady feels like she's in it alone. She's doing this all uphill battle by herself, but saying, I don't need a man. That's been 30 years of this. It's real easy. Everybody's trying to figure out why this is going. 30 years of this, of. Of people just making kids and not really having roles. It's a fact. Holmberg's morning sickness. Morning sickness. Holmberg's morning sickness. Dads have to hang. One of the people I admire the most, my buddy Winston, he makes no bones about it. When his kids get out of line, he tells me what I like. They're getting taken care of. And I'm like, and those kids are great. They behave. It's totally different when you've got kids that have just been raised by a mom, because moms are. Moms are beautiful things. I remember I got hit in the face with a baseball in fourth grade. Blew my eyeball to pieces. I thought I was going to die. And at night, my eye swelled up at a black. Everybody gets a black eye and play baseball. You're going to take. Eventually going to get hit. I'm laying in bed, my mom's next to me, and she goes, everything's going to be okay. And she put, without realizing it, the fear of going blind. In my head, you will see again. Everything's like, wait a minute. That wasn't a concern of mine. We're. We're dancing around the maybe never going to see again thing. I didn't say that. In my head. I'm like, oh, geez, that's scary. And you're gonna be just fine. And she just loved it. And you look like your eye. It's just fine. My dad came in and goes, got a shiner, eh? Didn't care, didn't touch me, didn't have a moment. Standard shiner. It's a good shiner. Yeah, that's a real good one. You got popped in the face. Next day at school, because my mom said I was maybe gonna be blind. Without realizing she'd said that, I couldn't see. My eyes started to water, and I touched the thing, and it was like I got hit in the face again. Run to the nurse's office at osuna elementary school in albuquerque, New Mexico. And I said, I think something's broken. The nurse can't hear that. Not call my dad at work. And she did. He has a broken orbital socket. My dad left work and basically said, it better be broken. I got there, and luckily there was a little chip. Nothing it could do. I'm like, am I really at the hospital? My mom was crying, am I at the hospital because my son has a black eye? Is that happening? Did I leave work because my son's got a black eye? Danny scared. I know. That's emotion. He's fine. What are you scared of? The black eye doesn't get worse. Mom said I was going blind. Your mother's crazy. That's something you need to learn early. But without a dad, that's being a great dad. It. Had my dad not been there, I would have had a broken eye socket. I'd have been traumatized forever. I probably had to quit baseball. My mom was crying. I was scared of going blind. It took my dad showing up going, hey, shut up. Disgraced Dr. Jordan says you've been taking balls to your face for years. Since then. That's probably. Probably gonna spike Ernie a little bit for an email. Good one, Jordan. Either way, you know, you gotta do that. Gotta be a dad. Single mom should do a great job. But get a dude involved and have him help out, Especially the one that's burned you. The dude that spermed. You should be more involved. That's the thing. And it's on. Dudes gotta stick around. Even married, it's a challenge. Sometimes you gotta find your Roles. What? You know, of course. But you know, it's balanced. Brady, you're the emotional one at your house. Kirby gets it. Kirby wants it. Kirby gets it. We see it. It's there. Somebody's got to play the heavy every once in a while. I don't see that being you. Like, maybe physically you're the heavy, or it used to be, but you're a coddling loving man. I would like you to be my dad. It'd be easy to walk on you. I'm going over here. I'm going with you. Like, life's pretty good. That's right. There it is. That guy right there. The rose colored glasses. They're beautiful. That's why Kirby is that burgeoning drug cartel that she started. And Brady's turned a blind eye to it. I'll just start earning. Just earn. Just bring it home. Earn. Be a good one. It's good stuff. But this non binary. If I ever heard anyone say that they're suffering from generational trauma, I would. Blackjack dealer. That situation so fast. Oh, we're done here. I'll see you guys later. Raul's coming up. He's your next dealer. Generational trauma. I saw a videotape of Martin Luther King's assassination. I just didn't know what you were. I wasn't even born yet. It affects me. You're the generation of videos. How in the world is that affecting you? Oh, I see what's going on here. You're trying to get out of doing stuff by acting like it all bothers you. I get it. It's. You're lazy. Every once in a while, you hear the ones that the person will say something like that, and that person they're saying it to. Almost like Charlie Kirk would do that. Every now and then there's another guy, but they're like, tell me the definition of that. Oh, yeah, you'd say a word. Generational. Yeah. What are you talking about? And they have a definition. General. Yeah. And they don't. They. Well, that was the thing. He would always do that when somebody would say fascism or you know something. Well, what is the definition of a fascist? Like, you know what it is? Like, they get mad because they really just. They're just spewing out words. Generational trauma, Brady is people who can't handle that. Life has been going on long before they were here, and a lot of it was ugly. They seem to be struggling with that today. Even though it's been all sorted out, they're basically just. We all deal with it. Then of course we do. It's society. Yeah. It's how you deal with it. But if you're traumatized by the Civil War, still, I think psychiatrists would call. You're carrying a lot of baggage forward. I think that. I think you really need to start putting some of these rocks down. They're anchoring you. And. And what? And. And it's basically a fear of living. Bad things have happened in the past, which therefore means they will happen in the future, which is a possibility. They will happen to me. So I'm afraid. And moms will hug you and say, it's scary out there. And dads will go, shut the up. Get out there. You know, you'll be fine. It's the bubble wrap. But don't be afraid of it. It's the bubble wraps. Oh, things suck. Yeah, you're gonna run into crappy stuff all the time. But let me remind you, Amazon drones are about to drop off another iPad for you. I think you're living a pretty good life. Get over it. You know what they didn't have when Paul Revere was warning everybody that the empire of England was here? IPads or texting. He had to ride around and do it. Paul Revere was the original iPad. He was the first, you know, first alert weather watch Channel three throws at you. Or when you're in the grocery store and the monsoons come through and everybody's phones go. Paul Revere had to do that by himself. Generational trauma. What do you think he was going through? I'll show you generational trauma and take the car away and give you a horse. Take away your phone and make you have to talk to people. Then you'll see some generational trauma when I put you in a different generation. And yet people can't get enough of that Renaissance Festival. They go out there and have a party. If you had generational trauma, let me drop you off at the Ren Faire. You think things are better now or not? Because if you. If you say this was a better time, I'm going to leave you here. Enjoy the plague. Yeah, they went through that. But there were some good festivals back then. Sure, they had parties. They made the most of it. Delay. They made the most of it. They made the most of it. Viktor Frankl Man's search for meaning. You can't take away my right to choose. How I choose to feel can't be done. I choose how this affects me. You can't take that. You can take everything else for me. You cannot take my brain's ability to choose how I feel about it. No matter what you do. Besides kill me. Can't do it. Generational trauma. Oh, maybe that's how she felt. What her? Yeah. Okay, but. Yeah, but it doesn't make you right all the time. Make sure you still make some bad choices. You have the right to choose it. But generational trauma is basically saying I'm. I'm helpless to everything they're not. I'm not a strong person. And people coddle that. Taser deployed. No balls to the face line. Still got me, Jordan. I'm still trying to come up with something. That was solid. 7:33, what do you got on our non offensive gender neutral board of music? I got nothing then. Yeah. Okay, then look on our regular. Look on a Regular Offensive Toxic 1. Do you have a toxic board? Yes. Okay. Action ride Shop. Bringing you that toxic board and getting you guys ready for the bike season is what it's all about. And Action ride shop is the place to do it.

Because this song is perfect. I would love for Keith Urban to break into what you're about to say on stage and every woman would leave this the show. Go ahead and just run them off. All right. Nine ish nails, Terrible lie. Avenge Sevenfold. I know where you're going, so I'll see you. Oh, yeah, yeah. Skip it. Seven Dust, Ghost Inside, Twisted Sister, Winger, Alice in Chain Soil, Fear Factory, Metallica and Van Halen. Pound Cake.

Van Halen, it's your wake up song for Maggie and Keith. He loves his baby's pound cake. It's 98 KUPD. Go get him. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect. 98.
