Holmberg's Morning Sickness – Arizona

Episode: 10-10-25
Date: October 10, 2025
Hosts: John Holmberg, Brady Bogen, Bret Vesely, Dick Toledo

Episode Overview

In this energetic and irreverent episode of Holmberg’s Morning Sickness, the crew kicks around a wild mix of pop culture, sports, current events, and medical oddities. The tone is sardonic and quick-witted, with John Holmberg’s trademark blend of ranting, observational humor, and topical chatter. This edition finds the hosts mocking Lee Greenwood’s “Proud to be an American” sellout, musing about human longevity (with Putin and Xi’s supposed immortality quest), loving on football standouts Cam Skattebo and Jaxon Dart, and dissecting the bizarre new heroin “sharing” trend dubbed "blood Bluetoothing." There are also personal stories, sports commentary, and authentic morning show banter, all with a distinctly unfiltered Arizona flavor.

Transcript

[Host]

You're listening to the HMS podcast brought to you by MMP Guns.com, your most trusted online marketplace for firearms, ammunition and accessories.

[John]

You've been deceived by an agent of Satan himself. He's evil. Sitting right here. Come on. No, no, he's not. He's not evil. He's just a bit rude. 98 the eve of Katie. Ah, there you go. It's miles to over. Thank you, Katie and those hobs. Uh, people emailing in saying stuff about the bad bunny, you know, so turning point one said, I'm like, I'm fine. You can have your thing. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm just making the observation that it's something stupid to complain and like be crazy about. Just watch the transvestites. That's fun. And you know what? I am wrong on this one because if there's one group of people that will not tolerate men on stage and dresses singing in a foreign language, it's Christians. Especially on a Sunday. They hate that. They hate dudes and dresses singing in a foreign language. They've been adamant about that. You take Sundays and you see a man in a dress singing in a foreign language. My God, what's this? Wait a minute.

[Brady]

Well, if you're looking at a time to get exposure and people to open up like you said when they. When they did it in 92. Yeah, the cat's out of the bag already. Now there's people know they're going to check out.

[John]

No, they're not.

[Brady]

They'll check out a curious.

[John]

More curiosity. Curious about a tranny or Lee Greenwood. And by the way, this was pointed out to us by a listener. Do you have that ready?

[Host]

Yeah.

[John]

Listen to this. Lee Greenwood, proud American. Proud American.

[Brady]

And I'm proud to be in Canada where at least I know I'm free and I won't forget the men who died.

[John]

He just replaced America with whoever paid him.

[Brady]

We stand up next to you play.

[John]

The one that I'm proud to be an Afghani. How's he pull this out?

[Brady]

God bless you, Canada.

[John]

I don't even try. Evidently he rewrote that for like eight or nine different nations. If they I'm proud to be a capitalist. Good work, Lee. That's pretty good stuff. I didn't know he did that. That kind of. I didn't either. Minimizes his streng as what did that sell Captain America? Well, how would you like to be Canada? And you get that it's like some second rate knockoff version of the American song. You Know, that's like adding, you know, for him, though.

[Brady]

He's. He's touring in Canada. He's like, this is our closure.

[John]

That's his song. Why is he touring? Let's modify. Yeah, he wouldn't. Selling tickets in Canada. Maybe if I just added a or something. No, just say the word Canada. Where. It's where America is. They'll do. Yeah, they're dumb. They don't. They don't even care if it rhymes. That's like having other countries. That's like telling Canada their new national anthem is the Star Spangled Banner. A. Oh, say a. Can you see A. This is knockoff, eh? Now this guy says, why would anybody care about that stuff? You talked yesterday about how awesome Ramstein was in concert. No one's complaining. They sing in German. It's good. It's good. I agree. I don't care. And I'm watching. Watching the fireworks. This guy says, john, there's nothing worse than high energy Latin music that gets young women in short skirts and thongs sweating and shaking their asses. I prefer brain dead music like Lee Greenwood. Signed Christian musician. And Nathan Sutherland. That's right, Nate, you want to put him to sleep. Bad Bunny's not the, uh, Jason says, can I sign up to protect my balls from a crazy bitch with a knife at React Defense. Well, we're gonna have to start working on that. I think the first thing they teach is if someone kicks your door down, probably bad things coming. That's not the last bad thing that's gonna happen that night. Never try to make love to someone who kicked your door down. I think that's a rule that they would. That's a rule I have.

[Brady]

It's a good rule.

[John]

I mean, they're professionals. I'll leave it to the Ackerman clan and everybody who trains up there, but I'm pretty sure if someone kicks the doors off my hinges, that's not easy to do. How big is this woman? And then comes in my room, the last thing I'm gonna do is take my pants off and let her have at my genitals because she came in with some bad intentions. There has to be a cooling off period of at least 24 hours before my testicles are exposed. Within her range. That's right. And then Ryan says, geez, John, Crying like a. What else you complain about? Someone took your parking spot.

[Host]

Boo.

[John]

You like working out so much, Walk a little further. No receptionist at work. No one wants to hurt you. Get over yourself. Second opinion for the halftime show. Jesus. At that Time of the month. And yet, Ryan, you took the time to email me all these complaints and you don't like.

[Host]

You press some buttons.

[John]

Yeah. You don't like that I've chosen topics that you don't care about and made jokes about, by the way, Kirby taking my parking spot. I don't care about that. Hilarious. To pin her car in there. That's what I did.

[Brady]

All right.

[John]

And by the way, hold on two seconds. Pull the tampon out of yourself. Next time you start hammering out a complaint letter about how you don't like complaining, just think about that for a second. All right, go ahead.

[Brady]

We thought it was very funny.

[John]

Oh, it's very funny. It's a riot. Because, I mean, it's absurdly close.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John]

Because when you have a Jeep, the. The cars don't touch. The tires do. I've leaned. I've turned my tires into friends cars to where they just can't back up.

[Brady]

It's funny now when you don't know the person.

[John]

Oh, if I did that to somebody I didn't know, well, they have every right to key and bash my car in because I'm. I've hit them. But I didn't. I didn't spin the wheel because I want to make Kirby scared.

[Brady]

I don't think it's going to be a core memory.

[John]

No, I think. I think she's like, what a jerk. All right, you got me. You got me. One of those deals.

[Host]

Just ask Jim Manley about your parking.

[John]

Exactly. I made friends out of hitting people with my car. And that wasn't intentional. Kirby's was. He parks. I mean, it was the valet's fault in that one. He put the car so close together, and then he couldn't pull the car out. I had to. Of course I'm going to run over the Lexus. I can't see.

[Brady]

I enjoyed the fact that she didn't identify your jeep. I mean, she. She just thought white Jeep.

[John]

She thought somebody did that?

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John]

Which is hilarious.

[Brady]

Man. Who did?

[John]

I hate that. I hate that she didn't pull the thing that said. You. You're blaming her.

[Brady]

She kept talking when we're on the freeway, like there's a flap of paper that's. Yeah, you see it, and I. I couldn't see it.

[John]

Yeah, you can't see over the dash. You're very short.

[Brady]

Yeah, I told her that.

[John]

You know, I can't see over the radio. You. What is it? Plus, it's up by those windshield wipers. And we've seen Brady try to work those before. And that is. He needs a step ladder and a friend. I'm not doing it. Yeah, it's hilarious. But yeah. Lee Greenwood singing Proud to be a Canadian. And that's not even seven. Yeah, I just said. I just saw that it was up to 7 on the thing. When I said how many. How many different nation, probably. I'm proud to be an Englishman. I'm like all free countries and stuff. I'm mildly proud to be a Frenchman.

[Host]

On his Wikipedia pages, basically, there's a bunch of covers of it, but there's only the Canadian version.

[John]

Yeah.

[Host]

American Idol did it. Beyonce did it.

[John]

Oh, you know, people have. People have done it and sung it.

[Brady]

I understand the cities. You know when I mention cities in the song.

[John]

Yeah, but if there's a list of cities. Huey Lewis and. Yeah, they were always the one with Phoenix and everybody. Oh, my God. We got mentioned in a Huey Lewis song. But he did that for every play. All the major markets got a special mention. So. Yeah. What are you going to do? Weirdos. Suns are playing right now. By the way, if you're interested in watching some Suns preseason basketball in China, that game's about at the half. Actually, it's probably about over. It started at 5 this morning, probably tipped off about 5:15 Arizona time, which is a Chinese night. And then they had basketball there. Did they win? Final score. Oh, we're in the third. Sun's up. 86, 83 over the Brooklyn Nets over there in China entertaining the Chinese today because there's no better gift American can give to an adversary than preseason basketball. Oh, boy, that's good times. I'll say this, I might want to watch the WNBA finals game before I'd watch a preseason basketball game at 5 in the morning. I text Kevin Ray this morning, who I think he's got a broadcast from a studio here while he watched, just like they used to with COVID When Kevin did the COVID games, he had to do it in another building. And they just watched the TV and told you what was going on? And he said, we do the COVID thing. I told him, I said, how's your new schedule working out? And I said, you could say the c word 25 times this morning on the broadcast and absolutely no one would know it. There's no way. No one. No one. Basketball Jones didn't wake up and try to watch a 5am preseason Suns game. But yet it's on. Somehow or another, they're just filling that time. And I don't know why we're. I mean, China's got a lot of money, but boy, oh boy, that's the one.

[Brady]

Hey, they're paying for it.

[John]

Okay, we'll take the chance. I mean there is absolutely no chance they're getting an NBA franchise. So this is just a little bit of a. I don't know what it is. I don't know why we would do preseason basketball.

[Brady]

Imagine the spies that's all make it to the championship.

[John]

China if they had like Xinjiang rockets or something. It's not a market we're going to. Then it's 5am and also your schedule is like you're gonna fly to China for the next 17 hours and then you get a day off. It's gotta be brutal. Oh, the French version of the Lee Greenwood song is I'm proud to surrender to America. That's the. I'm proud to surrender to America. Anyway. Yeah, that makes it. But yeah, I didn't know that. That kind of does that. That changes a little bit with Lee Green, doesn't it? It's kind of him marching around being like the new, you know, Francis Scott Key and he's up at all these events being, you know, super America. But if Canada pays him, he'll do it there too. So it's like, oh, proud to be a capitalist. I've got no issue with that. And we should also praise quite heavily our friend Cam Scatterboo. That was awesome last night. The Giants running rough shot over the Eagles and killing people's suicide pools and wrecking all your. I mean that was a. That was an easy one. Seven and a half points but never bet the road team on a Thursday night to cover. It's a weird stat. 80 something percent that even in walkaway games that the road team struggles on a Thursday night. And that's. That happened again last night. The Eagles look terrible. Morning sickness medicate Holmberg's morning sickness in the second half and the Giants Jackson dart. He looks great.

[Brady]

They got something.

[John]

He's got something that. Well, I mean the tape's not out yet, but I mean he's there for two games, three games and he's looking pretty Camp Scatter Boo.

[Host]

He's going to be an RG3 though.

[John]

Well, I could the way he's just getting crushed. Well, that's the thing. I, you know, having been golfed with Camp Scatter Boo two times, the thing I walked away from was boy, he's not as big as I thought he would be. As, as battle tested and as powerful as he seems in football pads. He does and he's just all heart and he's strong. I know that. But I expected him to be a box. And he was, you know, obviously in great shape. He was good. I just didn't. I looked at him like, you're not nearly as big as I thought you were going to be. And it made me think to myself, you've got about three years of your mentality ramming into walls and you're going to be good for three years. But I hope he, you know, you can. You gotta be so incredibly smart after about three years because the first. I don't want to see him get hurt. But the way he. His running style not conducive to longevity. He's. It's not a long term career, but man, is it impressive when he hits four dudes and then just starts digging those legs in the ground. That low center of gravity. And he is a stud. And on top of it all, like I said to you before, when I golf with him, like, there's just something different about it. He's just a special, like he's just got that you're gonna be all right kind of thing. Like you're gonna. This is gonna work out for you.

[Host]

I was talking more of Jackson and Jackson dart.

[John]

He's gonna be.

[Host]

He's getting crushed out.

[John]

Yeah. Oh, no.

[Host]

That's what I'm saying. RG3 right there. He's got a couple of years for sure.

[John]

Yeah. If they don't get in his head to stop taking unnecessary punishment. But how in the world did they miss so badly? Not starting Jackson dart earlier. And the coaches didn't see this difference between. Russell went in the game for a minute last night, just chucked one into the ground and got booed immediately by the entire crowd. And it was terrible.

[Brady]

See him huddle around in timeouts and.

[John]

He'S, you know, he's one of those rah rah guys. Tough night for Philadelphia because if you weren't watching baseball, you missed. If baseball was still America's sport, that would be an icon. It still will be. An iconic, horrible play to end. It ended a series. It ended a team season.

[Host]

Yeah.

[John]

The Philadelphia Phillies, bases loaded, but was bottom of the 12th or something like that. Bottom of the 11th, 11th, I think. Bases loaded. Dodgers are up two outs. Kirkering's on the mound, throws. I think there were two strikes too little. Nubber barely hit back to the pitcher. And it's. It had something on him. He bobbles it a little bit because it, you know, got to him. He can go to first base and get the runner Very easily. The dude coming from third was on contact running, so he's already a third of the way down the base by the time he's got the ball. He goes to throw home. Instead, even the catchers pointing, first base, first base goes to throw home. And your pitch. Your first pitch was better low. Yours. No, it was. It. It wasn't low.

[Brady]

Yeah.

[John]

Yours was still insanely high.

[Brady]

Okay.

[John]

But it had an equal chance of being caught by the catcher as what he threw. And it ended everything. And even if the guy would have caught it, it was a perfect throw. It was so late. Yeah, he was. It was the worst. It's one of the. It was Bill Buckner.

[Host]

He threw that thing to Pittsburgh.

[John]

It was.

[Host]

It wasn't in Philly because that guy.

[John]

Was so far off, it was gone. And. And then he just grabbed his knees. Like, I just. The whole season's over. It's over. Because I didn't just compose myself for half a second throw to first. It was tough to watch. And I just said immediately, oh, we got a Donny Moore situation here. That guy just. It's. Keep an eye on him for a little while. Because thank God people don't watch baseball like they used to, because that would have had. The word Kirkering would become normal. To say, you know, if you threw me my keys, and it was like, hey, Kirkering, I'm over here. Like, if you. If you. Yesterday I asked Shannon, I left my keys in the studio, and I said, hey, Shannon, you grab those for me? He goes, yeah, from, like, me to the window, 8, 9ft. He underhand tossed me keys that went over my head. Seven to ten feet. I couldn't. How did you even do that? And I just started laughing. I'm like, shannon, that's the worst throw a man could make. And he goes, I don't even know what. Like, it just great velocity, way over my head. I'm like, if you did it on purpose, it's a hilarious joke. But if not, dude, practice.

[Host]

Was he pitching for Philly last night.

[John]

After he got off the air? It would have been called a Kirkering had that already happened. Hey, Kirkering. But because it's not a good reference point because nobody pays attention to baseball like they used to. Luckily, this pitcher for Philly won't be synonymous with, you know, errant throws for the rest of his life. It was really bad, and it was back breaking.

[Brady]

So there's Philly losing the job by 10,000 batteries. I mean, you know, Phil, that's true.

[John]

It happened in la. So, yeah, yeah, they were busy in Philadelphia chucking batteries at each other because both their teams lost on the road to New York and Los Angeles, which Philadelphia just loves being bitch to those two towns, that's for sure. So to all you people from Philadelphia.

[Host]

Imagine the water bottles that be thrown at him when they see him on.

[John]

The street through a water bottle of Kirkering. You know what? I'll hit him. He won't hit me. Hey, Kirkering. Safest thing I could do is give you a baseball and tell you to throw it at me. I'd sit in a dunk tank over there and Kirkering would let me. I'd sit there for a month. He'd kill 10 people outside the tank. It was bad and I felt terrible for the guy. And then I realized, oh, this makes people in Philadelphia unhappy. This is awesome. I love this. Anytime you can kind of make Philadelphia sad as a whole and then do it twice in one night. Highly recommend you take that up because that is great.

[Host]

Does this save Daybell's job?

[John]

Oh, yeah. He's on his way to being saved at this point.

[Brady]

You know, coach of the year.

[John]

They're two and four now. They just beat the Eagles.

[Host]

Yeah.

[John]

Pretty good deal there. So, yeah, I was. That's impressive. So nice job. But yeah, Cam Scatter. I. I'm rooting so hard for him to, to be healthy, just to be the anomaly. But a dude that runs like that. Your careers make hay, man. And what sucks about it is a fourth round draft pick. So we'll have a four year rookie contract that they're not going to touch unless he just, you know, goes for 2,000 yards. We had three touchdowns last night. But get him on some commercials, man. He's just got to survive those four years and get that first major deal with a huge signing bonus. And because that boy running backs who are big a lot of the times don't have long shelf lives. And he's. He's a strong man, though. I love that Cam. Fun to watch. Yeah. People all saying the same thing. It reminds me of Philip Lindsay and Peyton Hillis. He reminds me of poor man's Mike Alstott because Mike Allstott was. He was bigger, but Allstot was the same thing. It's like where's he would look for numbers to run into. He didn't try to dodge anyone.

[Brady]

Cannonball.

[John]

Yeah. And that's. And Cam's got moves like he can spin out, but he chooses to bash into dudes and man, does he do it. But it's very Peyton Hillis. It's it's very cool. So he's kind of a. He's kind of our own little ASU product. That's fun to watch. So many teams now starting to look around going, we might have blown it on Jackson Dart and Cam Scatter. Boo. Letting them fall as far as they did. Plenty of teams that need quarterbacks. Pittsburgh that looked at Jackson Dart and said, not quite ready for prime time. He looks pretty good. We'll see though. Tape's not out. Usually a rookie needs three or four games before it becomes permanent. And defensive coordinators get you and like what Brett said, Eventually DCs are going to be like, he doesn't slide.

[Host]

Yeah, take him down, get crushed.

[John]

Yeah. Teach him a lesson. And those one of those linebackers that comes around, puts a lick on him pro style, which he hasn't been. He's gotten hit a few times. But you get a good one, look out, you get a Micah Parsons or TJ Wat. A few of those dudes that are looking at you like, I'm gonna drop you like a bad habit. This happened in September, but I saw it last night on the news or on a Internet thing and I thought at first it was AI and then I looked into it. It wasn't Xi Jinping, leader of China, probably at the game today watching the Suns and Nets. He's with Vladimir Putin back in September. And a hot mic caught them talking. You know what they were talking about? Amping up medical research for organ transplants for them so they could live longer. Like if they like to make the technology of like and to harvest citizens organs who were healthy and young and save them for those two.

[Brady]

So question what was it in Russian? Was it in Chinese?

[John]

Well, I don't know. Do they have the interpreter, the things in their ears. And I don't know if you. When I told you my meta glasses did it for that Mexican guy whose car broke down from the doordash I had. But yeah, they basically were like.

[Brady]

Because you're thinking about that like. So the hot mic is picking them up and either got an earpiece in there.

[John]

Yeah, well, yeah, because. Well it's just, it's, you know, computers too. Like meta will do it. Like you don't need a translator anymore. And I don't know if either of them speak the other's language or whatever, but Putin said the interpreter caught and gave it back to us and said, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are they doing? Putin said, you know, with advances in biotechnology, human organs will be increasingly transplanting. Transplanted. It's going to let us live younger and younger and perhaps even achieve immortality. And then Xi said, yeah, in this century, it's anticipated it may be possible for people to live to be 150. I'd be first on board with that. The both of them want to live forever.

[Brady]

Life's good right now.

[John]

Yeah. And they're basically kind of like, you know, it would only be good if it was us first, though. That's horrifying. And, you know, if Trump gets word of this, he's going to try to get in on this organ thing.

[Brady]

They're going to start it.

[John]

Yeah, Brady, you're lucky they don't want your organs. Guys like Brett and I, we're perfect targets for these guys. They borrow us for 25 years, they do another one later. Yeah, they're one of their deals is to try to, to amp it up a little bit. So they and I already do that for leaders in most countries, even here, they get like, health care that you can't imagine and all the stuff that we can't have, they'd get like if they had something going on. But those two shouldn't be openly discussing organ harvesting to keep themselves alive forever. Although if I was in their position, maybe I'd do that too. Holmberg's morning sickness, that's kind of their water cooler talk.

[Brady]

That's all they have in common.

[John]

Nobody's ever said that. Like, if you and I are sitting in the office, I'm like, you know what, Brady? We should take all our money and invest it into biotechnology to see if we can get some organ stuffed in our bodies that would make us live to be 150. That is proof that most leaders in the world are psychopaths. Because nobody should want to live to be 150. No. No one. Not a soul. Did you see that old lady, that nun that just finally died? She's 106. People in the news, listen are, oh, that's so sad.

[Brady]

Do you think God likes basketball?

[John]

106 years old and the news was talking about, oh, it's just so sad. It is the happiest day ever in 106 year old's life is the last day they're here. Nothing about 106 says tomorrow's gonna be better. It's just a downward slide into misery.

[Brady]

And you made it longer. But the whole nil thing.

[John]

Well, yeah, she hated college. Basketball took a turn. It got too, you know, got too commercialized and messy with money. So she checked out. Nobody ever said, you know, she's better at 106. Than she was at 95. Nobody's better. You get worse every day.

[Brady]

Did you know she was still alive?

[John]

I think I did. I think I just saw a story about her. I didn't. Well, I think it's because I just saw a story about her a little bit.

[Host]

Yeah.

[John]

So probably prior to that I didn't. But 106 is not. It shouldn't be anyone's goal. It should never be anybody's goal. You should want out of here. But Sister Luisa, Luisa Luisa is out. And I'm. I'm the only person who's like, oh yeah, I remember.

[Brady]

Yeah, okay.

[John]

Sister Jean, she cheered for Loyola at the. And she went nuts talking about basketball and she knew her stuff. And the only thing people were impressed by was that she wasn't babbling incoherently like the bar.

[Brady]

Pretty sharp, but okay.

[John]

But the reason we say that is because we assume the bar is set so low. To impress me. When you're 100, all you have to do is not two things. Don't yourself in front of me and. And complete a sentence and like wow, she's got it together. Still somehow nobody's supposed to be a hundred. You're not supposed to get that old. And if you do, the only thing people are surprised by. It's like when a 50 year old woman is hot and they post pictures of themselves going. And then you know she's hot. 450. It's always added at the end her age. Like yeah, because none of them are. Or 50. That's hard to do. Like the bar is so low to be old and hot because most people don't do it. 106. I was so happy she died. Congratulations, Sister Jen. I was never been happier to see a death notice in my life. Did. Did. No. Did someone say, oh, if I could have just had some more time with her. You blew it. She lived for 106 years. You had plenty of time. If you have regrets with 106 year old relative, you. You wasted a lot of that time not being around them.

[Host]

Just wanted that one last goodbye.

[John]

Just. Just needed. I missed out on so much. Nope. She was 106. She laughed you twice. She shouldn't have been here 40 years too long.

[Brady]

You didn't look at it, John, like 53. She's middle aged.

[John]

Yeah, that would be. I'm exactly halfway to 106. And let me tell you, prospects aren't real great for 106. If this is 53. My feet hurt. I can't imagine what hers felt like.106. No, it isn't amazing. It's a tragedy is what it is. It's a tragedy. Nothing about being 106 is amazing. It's tragic. And you've got to put people out of their misery every time. I have my friend Paula, who's 94 and she's spry and in great shape, but constantly says, well, any day now, like, it's just looming over her because she knows. She even says that. She's like, I still got it together. But she's worried that tomorrow's the day that 95 grabs her and says, here's what happens to you now. And then she lingers on and nobody wants that. Nobody says, you're going to make it to 107. You turn 106 and everybody's like, this is probably the last Christmas with Sister Jean. Just probably. 106. Are you kidding me? No. 107. I'm shocked. You see, those Chinese men are like 114. And they're just potatoes with eyes. And they're just looking at you like, please, for God's sake. They've got that one row of teeth. Because your teeth, even if you take great care of them, aren't supposed to last much longer than like 65, 70 years. That's their life. Expectancy. And they got that one broken down picket fence of bottom teeth. And it's just Twinkies and drink scotch every day. It's Twinkies and scotch and then some idiot news anchor from Toledo. Twinkies and sketch. That's the key to longevity. That guy's trying to kill himself. You didn't hear him? You didn't read between the lines. Someone finish me, finish me off. I can't. I'm trying and it's not working. Twinkies and Scotch. Did you hear me? No one lives this long. You're a resource sucker. But Sister Jean, I'll be the first to say it. I am so glad you're dead. It's. It's fantastic news today because you got out before it got real bad. Anybody wishing for her to live longer was wishing for her to sit in a puddle of her own feces and not know who anybody is anymore. 106. With your wits about you. Time to go.

[Brady]

Japan is leading the clubhouse with old.

[John]

People over a hundred.

[Brady]

Yeah, 99,000, 763.

[John]

It's insanity. Japanese people. And that's what I said a few years ago. And somebody got mad at me. I'm like, maybe that was one of the side effects of what we did like one of the mutations of the bombs. If you make it through, you're gonna live to be a hundred.

[Brady]

Sunshine.

[John]

Yeah, we planted some sunshine. Evidently sunshine's great for your. Your. Your long.

[Host]

So they should be thanking us, Is that what you're saying?

[John]

Or thanking us? So we had a third one we didn't use. Crushes your birth rate. But you're going to live a lot longer. It's a Green Mile bomb. We made those Japanese people live so long. Now I'm not a scientist, so don't hold me to that, but it's just a theory, you know. It's the only place that's had a couple of nukes thrown at it. And it's leading the league with old people by a lot. So the secret to long life might be fat man and little boy. Just saying Oppenheimer might have had something. The side effects, you know, like, you know. Ozempic. It's not for weight loss. But nuclear bombs aren't for long healthy lives.

[Brady]

You'll just have to put up with a lot of rotten eggs.

[John]

There's a sulfur stink. But you know what? You get used to it. You never hear India complain about the smell of their country. It takes somebody who's never been there to go, Jesus Christ, you guys smell that? What? To smell what? All of you.

[Brady]

So you get used to it after a couple of days.

[John]

Yeah, because you're hanging. Yeah, because the. The. Then you finally found the Indian CVs where they sell nose plugs.

[Brady]

It's like the cows in Gilbert back in the day.

[John]

Both that would waft over on warm days after a monsoon and Gilbert would muck up the whole city. Then they moved them to Queen Creek. Now they got. I don't know where they're going to move them next. They keep pushing those cows away. They're going to be in Mexico soon. Yeah, Sister Jean, Good riddance. So long, sister. You overstayed your welcome by about 14 years. At least. Resource suckers. I don't like centurions. I'll fight every last one of them. Brady.

[Brady]

Foot race.

[John]

Oh, I give them all a head start. We could do 100 yard dash and all they have to do is 10. I'll get to the hundred. I'm walking. And that's proof. It's like, what are you doing here? You can't go 10 yards. It hurts. Like you said. Your mom putting her clothes on. Now imagine her in 21 years. Like. Like just looking at her clothes is going to take her breath away. I gotta get dressed. Just a thought. Of it.

[Host]

None of them want that.

[John]

Nobody wants that.

[Brady]

That.

[John]

I always think you're a lunatic. If you want to live to be a hundred, I want to live to be 100 years old. Oh, my God. You're crazy.

[Brady]

Well, we found two leaders yesterday.

[John]

Yeah, well, and they're nuts. Like, you got to be a sociopath earlier this year. Yeah, you got to be a sociopath to want to live that long. It's crazy.

[Host]

My dad's parents each went to 94, and he. He's always said he goes, I don't.

[John]

Want to go that far. No. No way.

[Host]

Cuz I saw the end, and it was.

[John]

Last few years are like, oh, no. We've let it drag on. We shouldn't have made the sequel. So good luck to everybody out there who's dreaming of being 100. But you know what? What would you rather be? A Philadelphian or 106 years old? Because it's equal. It's equal. Equally painful. Equally painful. I might take 106 at that point. Now, the flip side of that is what drug addicts are doing now. Boy, you druggies, that. That stuff must be fantastic. There's a new thing they're warning people about called blood. Blood, bluetoothing, and hot spotting, where you're officially in need of heroin or whatever it is you're firing into your body, because the stuff must be amazing, because the things they do to get it are crazy. I mean, right now, the withdrawal. Yeah, right now, I want Coke Zero so bad it hurts, because I haven't had my steady stream of Coke Zero poured into my body since I unified with Brady, since he's had to have a better diet because of his stuff. So I'm like, you know what? Kill something for yourself in support. And I got rid of drinking Coke Zero because I drink a ton of it or drank a ton of it. I want one, But I would never resort to, like, blowing Brett to go get me one. But that's what heroin users end up doing. Like, I will do things. I'm. You know, I will sell my soul. Makes you think how powerful great it must be. So now they're doing this hot spotting and bluetoothing where, let's say you and I are dead broke heroin addicts, Brady. And. And you've got some, and I don't. And you're like, well, I could share it with you, but I really want it all. I don't have any money. So what you could do is inject it into your body. Right? And then I'll take that needle after you get real high, draw some of your blood out and put it into mine.

[Brady]

Come on.

[John]

Yeah, and you get like a minor heroin high off the heroin infused blood that came out of your heroin friend.

[Brady]

That's hot spotting.

[John]

It's called hot spotting. And it's bluetoothing.

[Brady]

I don't. Yeah, I guess the bluetoothing is just.

[John]

Yeah, I mean, it's like. I don't know. It's just the name they came up with. I don't know, morning sickness. But it says. Yeah, they're warning people. I'm like, it's time doctors did one thing. Stop warning heroin addicts. What Healthy is. Just knock it off. You're wasting your time warning dull heroin users. It's terrible idea to take a needle and put it in yourself. And then someone. They weren't listening before.

[Host]

Why are you warning.

[John]

Why are you warning heroin users? Let's just let heroin users do what they do before we have studies on how to tell them to do it better. They don't care. Here's what you guys need to know about this. And heroin users are like, yeah, what I really, really need is healthy heroin use. Help me out with this, doc. I want to be the healthiest heroin user of all time. They're not thinking about their health. You shouldn't do that. You think they don't know that I know I can be caked out on heroin. And I know for sure that my needle in my arm being used immediately on Brady is not a good idea. Heroin addicts already know. This wasn't like, what? Did you hear that? We're not supposed to do this. And the other hair was what? It seems so reasonable, like they're not dealing with reason. I thought for sure this would be okay. We're friends.

[Brady]

What?

[John]

I can't use a needle. You just used to shoot your blood into my body. I saw it on a medical. Yeah, like they're reading the. Almost said it. Like they're reading the medical journals on their off time. I was really high on heroin the other night, but I grabbed the most recent AMA papers and really found out a lot about what we're doing is bad. Did you know that? No, I didn't. Trouble, bruh. What about heroin use could possibly be bad? Everything. It's shockingly bad. I yuck at it. I put it in my yuck. It's a zero out of 100, man. There are no benefits to it.

[Brady]

I wonder if bluetoothing works. If someone pounds a bunch of pizza and I take.

[John]

All right, you calm down. I know you Want to slice right now but you can't. Did you stay good in in Ohio? Did you slip up? I, I, we knew you, we knew.

[Brady]

You'D slip to an Italian place and you had spaghetti.

[John]

You crammed some red sauce and some flour.

[Brady]

Yeah, well the red.

[John]

Yeah, yeah, you got those flour noodles. That's not good. You didn't ask for the protein or wheat noodles. Oh, the worst kind. Tons of butter. That was a rough one. I knew you'd slip. You'd have to. You gotta back, you gotta backstep everyone.

[Host]

Vacation.

[John]

It was one night. Vacation is one of his kidneys is on permanent vacation and doesn't what the difference was.

[Brady]

I left half of it for later usually. Yeah, no, I never.

[John]

You didn't touch it. Good to see.

[Brady]

Give it to Bunny.

[John]

Yeah, yeah, it's good. Give it to the 86 year old.

[Brady]

She's ready.

[John]

It's good. Nothing bad can happen to her from here on out. Let's load her up. I'm a medical professional. You heroin users have it all wrong. What? This is my workout juice man. This is my pre workout. I know you're all very interested in physical health, but this whole shoving needles into each other and putting your blood in the other guy, surprisingly bad. What, I gotta stop doing that? When I go to the gym to use heroin, I want it to be like as pure as possible. Next thing you're gonna tell me is sucking that guy's for some drug money is a bad thing. You didn't know that? What? Is there anything I do that's good? Heroin users need doctors. Yeah, that's why they call you junkies. It's in the name like. Nothing you're doing is good.

[Brady]

Trey.

[Host]

You got some rock or some blow, I'll suck you up.

[John]

Yeah, it taught us all in our early twenties in Boyz N the Hood. You got some rock, you got some blow?

[Brady]

I suck your.

[John]

Keep your babies off the street. Trey had the proper answer. I'm not even going to hit you with any more realities. Keep your babies off the streets. She had that crack face, white powder around her lips. It's all dried up.

[Brady]

Even Robert Downey Jr. Didn't he do that in less than zero?

[John]

Oh, less than zero is hard to watch. Yeah, he blew a dude. Unless. That's right. I forgot about that. Oh man, I forgot that movie existed. But yeah, you're right. In that scene where Jamie Gertz in her prime wanders in and sees him down between some dudes in that Corvette.

[Brady]

Get him out of there.

[John]

Getting his neck stuffed By a fella, and he turns across, oh, Jesus, God. How. How good is heroin? I mean, how good must that stuff be that a dude had that idea, you're gonna get high, and I'm not? This isn't fair. Hey, man. Sorry, man. Life's not fair. I blew a guy for eight bucks, and I got some black tar. You know, I wonder if you put your blood in me after you're getting high if I'll get a little taste of that. I don't see a downside to that. They already don't follow the medical procedures. Why do doctors bother with this stuff? And do you think there's one that said, hey, you want some of my blood in you? And the other guy's, no, that's not healthy. I just want straight heroin. Nobody's gonna say that. If you're on heroin right now, consult a physician on how you do it, because I know that health is a priority. Bluetoothing. How good is heroin? Must be great. You should ask Bunny to try some and give you a report now that she's 86. We should have gotten sister Jean all jacked up on that stuff. That's not a bad idea.

[Brady]

I've been at the tail end.

[John]

Oh, that's true. That might have been medically induced.

[Brady]

She could have been in comfy town.

[John]

This guy says, I united with Brady when he had his thing. Took my oath to do better, eat better. I'm down eight pounds since Brady's kidney went away. Look at that. You're helping people. Good on you, man.

[Brady]

Good.

[John]

People said, why'd you stop drinking Coke zero? Because Brady had to change his diet, and I wanted to be, you know, supportive of that. It's like when people get the cancer diagnosis and they go through chemo and lose their hair, and some of their friends shave their head or. And John Stamos just put a bald cap on. That wasn't very nice. Dave Couly lost all of his body hair sitting there with no eyebrows in the picture. And there's Stamos. Like, I support my friend, dude. That's a bald cap.

[Host]

You get to go, if you had a head of hair like that, you wouldn't have shaved it either.

[Brady]

Yeah, but that dude would have grown.

[John]

Back in an hour. Take it from a couple of bald guys. If you shaved your head, it'd be back, like, a week from now. It didn't. And John Stamos is a beautiful man for his hair. Even if.

[Brady]

Yeah, if he shaves, it grows back in a day.

[John]

Even a Greek woman grows her Body hair back in, like an hour after she shaves. She's going to shave her legs twice in a day. That's ridiculous. That he wouldn't. He didn't dare. And I understand. Like, if I had that hair, it would be precious. But it's growing back later that he's gonna have five o' clock shadow, and then tomorrow he's gonna Chia pet. It'll be a week. John Stamos will be back to normal. He probably looks great bald, too. The curse of it all. So sometimes you do things to kind of show support for your buddy who's going through a thing. Stamos. How dare you? There's the picture. How dare you. Stamos put the bald cap on him. He looks good. He's got a pretty face. He's 63. The guy looks amazing. That would have been back in a day or two, and that would have pissed Coulier off even more. But he had the nerve to pose in that magazine with him. Like, I'm a good friend. You're a dick. That's a dick move. That's like me getting, like, kidney stew and eating it in front of Brady. I'm with you, buddy. Come with on the can of kidney beans. Taking Jackie Onassis to the shooting range. Taking a 911 survivor to the airport. It's just stuff you don't do. You don't play. Pretend you're with him. With you, man.

[Host]

Oh, he shaved his head.

[John]

Yeah. So? So they had clippers. Stamos.

[Brady]

That was a pose.

[John]

Hold tight. Stamos helped shave off the hair from Coulier. That was. That was wispy. That was because you see that sometimes you think. So he's got clippers in his hands. Yeah, Right.

[Brady]

You know, old clippers and take a. I understand that.

[John]

You know what you could have done with those clippers? To be a real friend. The only excuse.

[Brady]

And look at.

[John]

He's actually kind of beautiful bald. Look at that. He looks like a genie that just came out of a lamp. He looks amazing.

[Brady]

Those eyebrows.

[John]

Just fantastic.

[Brady]

He's shaving those every day.

[John]

Please. Those things abroad.

[Brady]

Is that his wife? That might be cool.

[John]

It's not Stamos's wife. That's cool. She didn't shave her head.

[Host]

Look better looking than Atlantis. Nice.

[John]

He's saying he won the Atlantis. I think so. All right. There you go. So you got to do that. But again, heroin users consult a physician. You guys are doing it wrong. Evidently, there's a healthier way. I don't understand that. Brett. What do you got on the big board of musical Treats?

[Host]

I got wake up songs stacked to you guys from Action Ride Shop. And it's a little rainy out there, but it's nice and cool out. Now's the time to get out there before the heavy rain starts. And if you don't got time for that, you need to get that bike serviced for when the sun comes back. And that is the best place to do it. Action Ride Shop, with two locations right there in Gilbert Road in Southern, and the brand new one right there at power Road and McDowell. ActionRideshop.com is where you're gonna find everything you need. There you go.

[John]

And on the list here, what a time to ride, too.

[Host]

Oh, yeah, it's beautiful.

[John]

Get the rain this weekend in the mud. It changes. No dust. Oh.

[Host]

Oh, yeah.

[John]

Get a little. You get a little mud on your back. But it is pride week, so that's okay. Thank you. Thank you very much. I got nothing. Proud of that one. Proud of that one. 93. 3. Oh, I'm sorry.

[Host]

On the list, all that remains.

[John]

Slayer.

[Host]

Seasons in the abyss, which turned 35 years old yesterday. What doesn't make you feel old?

[John]

That was 90.

[Host]

Yeah.

[John]

Oh, my God.

[Host]

Overkill, Mushroom Head, Metallica, Megadeth, Van Halen, Running with the Devil for Scat, Motorhead, the Cult White Zombie, Van Halen, Mean Streets. Because David lee Roth turned 71 years old today.

[John]

Yeah.

[Host]

All right.

[John]

We got to do a little David Lee Roth mean streets. He's 71. Yeah. Good Lord. Is that right?

[Brady]

And I just told you, the freaky one, that Daryl Hall.

[John]

Yeah.

[Brady]

79.

[Host]

Oh, man.

[Brady]

The dude who played Tyrion Lannister on Game of Thrones?

[John]

Yeah. I don't know.

[Brady]

Same age. 79.

[John]

He's also 79. Wow. Well, that's fascinating. How about that? Well, there you go. They are Charles Dance, 27 years younger than sister Jean. Come on in. 27 years of Daryl hall trying to croon out. Sarah, smile. You don't want that. You don't want 35 more years of this dude.

[Host]

Oh, man.

[John]

71 year old David Lee Roth. Don't make it to 106. That'll embarrass everyone. It's Mean Street. Happy birthday. DLR. It's 98.

[Brady]

It's not weird. It's pretty cool, actually.

[John]

No membership fees. I've heard enough of this.
