A
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. Good morning everybody. Hello there. Welcome to Wednesday. Man, it's November 12th already. It's 5. 45. This is your morning sickness. My name is John. There's Brady. Brett's still out, obviously. And then, of course, you got Big dick Toledo sitting around here somewhere. We're off and running for another glorious day here in paradise. A good one. Another 85 degree November day. Beat that. Everybody go play outside. Play outside. The whole world's a pool. Just get in and in this.
B
Unload a pod you just got from.
A
No, that's what you did. You just got a pod from a.
B
Fantastic.
A
How fun is that?
B
Boxes and boxes of.
A
Not your stuff. Yeah. This was an inherited pod.
B
Yeah.
A
And it's stuff you don't want.
B
Yeah.
A
Stuff you don't want.
B
Business tax returns since.
A
Why in the world.
B
They're just.
A
How did that end up in the pod? They just loaded the house and put it in the pod.
B
Yeah. Basically.
A
You didn't go through it first. You wanted the tax returns.
B
I did. I didn't know.
A
Oh, boy. Ronnie went up and wanted the tax returns to.
B
Yeah. She thought, oh, I'm. I need to keep them. They're filed in boxes. I go, you don't know.
A
You don't. That person is no longer with it.
B
Yeah. So there's. There's no.
A
Oh, you've got.
B
Other than oh. She's thinking. I go, well, we, you know, pay to have it shredded.
A
Yeah. Or just burn it slowly in a field.
B
Thought about that. But they're. They're, you know, those regular filing boxes.
A
Sure.
B
There must be 20.
A
Oh, good Lord. You didn't go up. No, that's a mistake. You let her. You let the wife go up and handle what to keep. They keep everything. Oh, you're a hoarder, too, though.
B
Yeah.
A
You're bad. This would.
B
And even.
A
You're gonna keep all this. Oh, yeah.
B
Nowhere. Up.
A
Brady, you just got your garage redone. It was reasonable and human. And now you got all this.
B
Just. Just a day or two delay. I've got. I've got enough room in the storage.
A
No, we already had a problem with your garage. Now what are you going to do with those cans? You got to keep other people's tax papers and cans.
B
I only have two more boxes of. Two more Tupperware, whatever you call storage, boxes of cans. So I'm going to throw them up on the wall, too.
A
Yeah, you got to get them up there.
B
I might as well complete the project.
A
By all those tax boxes. What did you find in there of the other person's belongings that you're like, hey, I think that's a part of.
B
It is finding certain things that might have been filed in the wrong place. Yeah.
A
But so what if they're dead? Doesn't matter. All their paperwork is meaningless now. As far as that goes. Yeah.
B
And there could be. But there's like, potential. There could be other accounts that you don't know.
A
You're trying to find the secret money. I see what's going on.
B
Or it just sits there.
A
Are you forced to go through that? Oh, yeah. I would go through that if it meant.
C
Yeah.
A
Somebody's extra money.
B
Yeah.
A
So now you got to go.
B
A couple of mysteries. There's a bunch of keys and a couple are. Have been identified as basically safety deposit box.
A
Oh, but you got to find the bank. This is like a free for all.
B
Every one of them in. In Denver that she figured that her aunt.
A
Yeah.
B
And that's not ours.
A
So her aunt passed away and left you like a game. Yeah, it's like a. Like a whole game of go through. What do you think? Like. Because if somebody. If I died and the key situation would be confusing for me too.
B
Yeah.
A
I got loads of keys from old houses, from other people's houses.
B
Everyone has loads of keys. There's like a drawer that would have.
A
Exactly. I got no idea what any of this stuff is. In fact, when I redid my house, I redid a back storage facility thing. It's got five doors on it.
B
Yeah.
A
And each one has a different key. I don't lock those because I don't know what key goes where. I'd stand out there for two hours trying to figure out which keys go to this. I have a bike lock. I don't understand where that key is. I have the. The bike rack on the back of my Jeep. I have to dig a hole in that. I got 55 keys for that trailer hitch. Trailer hitch things. Oh, disaster. So keys. That's the worst. And she didn't leave any. Like. So that's why you got all that paper. You got to. Yeah.
B
There might be a crumb in one of those boxes.
A
You're like. You and Ronnie are kind of hoping for maybe. Jackpot.
B
Well, the thing that's interesting because her aunt was always known. She always did a lot of stuff. Like. I mean, she would save cash and did transactions in cash. And so when all since she passed away.
A
Where's the cash?
B
Yep.
A
Unless she was just running. I got cash now and then. That's all I had.
B
Yeah. Well, no, at the time she's got her. You know, she had a retirement stuff and all that, but she Always would have. She always felt like I gotta have this reserve, you know, so much right. Liquid ready to go. Rather than she had a shoebox electronically.
A
So maybe she just. Maybe she was just playing the game.
B
There was a safe.
A
Was there anything in it?
B
Nope.
A
That's the sign. That's the signs of a person who's running one to one. There's cash. One to one. Yeah. What about her credit situation? She have credit cards? Could she get credit? Maybe that's what she did.
B
And she had one. One credit card through one of the banks.
A
But did it? Yeah, but multiple. Find out her credit company. Because if she's running cash, there's two reasons why. She's crazy. Or she couldn't get anything off of credit anymore. Or pay for it. Because crazy millionaires run the cash.
B
You know, at the end. Last couple years, she did some work on her house.
A
Yeah.
B
So she did take a little second.
A
Out to a second mortgage.
B
Yeah.
A
Well, if she had cash, she wouldn't have done that.
B
I know. Which is interesting.
A
You don't take a second out if you can pay for it with cash.
B
And the fact that there is hardly any anything left on the second she passed away.
A
The Brady mystery. I like this. Ask David said ask Brady if there's a generator in that pod. Was there? Did you get your generator back in your own? Kind of weird. No.
B
But I got a nice, nice new set of tools.
A
Hey, that's good. You're going to keep them?
B
Oh, yeah.
A
Yeah. A good set. Some craftsman. Some snap on A good brand name.
B
Some cobalt.
A
Cobalt. Nice. Very good. Something I've heard of. That's all. I really. I don't know if I could use them. I just know that if you have tools that has a name that isn't Chinese.
B
I mean the. Yeah, the set was really nice and had.
A
Yeah. Real men will make funny if you come in with your Cobinkos. What the hell are these? I don't know.
B
You'll like this. I wish I would have taken a picture. I'll get it this morning. But I have it up on my shelf now. And it's for something for Kirby eventually to tap in. My Ronnie's aunt.
A
Yeah.
B
Owned a. She made the ovens. The kilns for glassblowing artists.
A
She made them.
B
Made them. She has. It was called Denver Glass.
A
Okay.
B
And had a very good reputation too for.
A
For the glass blowing. Very small group of people, but. Yes, it is.
B
But universities would buy. Sure. So anyway, she's got some stuff artists have made throughout, you know, little collection.
A
Yeah.
B
And one of the things is valued at like 900 bucks. It's a glass blown bong.
A
All right. Kirby's gonna.
B
Put that up on my. Hey, man.
A
He thinks I haven't even used it already. I smelled the thing on the pod, man. Yeah, of course she's gonna have that. And it's gonna sit in your ear is.
B
I'm hoping Chihuly made this one.
A
Yeah, it's pretty good. Some one eyed bongs coming at you. I like that.
B
It's like a vine growing and it's got a gecko wrapped around it on the outside layer.
A
Very pretty. Very pretty glass bong.
C
Super weedy.
A
Yeah, that's so Colorado. So. Yeah. That's in your house. So nothing so far other than the glass bong. You're like, whoa, this is.
B
And then there's some other glass blown stuff.
A
Anything you're keeping, you found that you were kind of.
B
She had some art, a couple pictures. Ronnie went through those. Yeah.
A
Matches your house or.
B
It does.
A
Yeah. Okay, that's good. That's good. It does it. Or is it being forced to match your house by your wife? And you can't say because it's.
B
No, there's three of the pictures. Definitely matched.
A
Okay, that's good.
C
Outside of that matched your artwork, like your.
A
Yeah. Not that racist stuff you hang.
B
No, I got them back up in the garage.
A
Yeah, I just had the football player with a yam. You got one backup. You found a spot. You found a home for one of your racist dads from the 20s. Yeah, that's all right.
B
It was the white guy, football, with the leather helmet, holding a.
A
Well, that's not a racist one.
B
Yeah.
A
What happened to the lady? The big lipped angel? What was she selling yams too?
C
Peaches, I think.
A
Peaches. That's it.
C
It was peaches.
A
Horrible.
B
Those were yams.
A
Yeah, it was yams, too. Yeah, she was selling yams as well. And it was just. It was hard to be in Brady's house a couple of times.
C
Like yams.
A
He had those prominently displayed, displayed. What? They're real ads. Okay, well, slavery was real, and I don't see that in your backyard. You should probably think about this food.
B
Labels from 1929.
C
The Japanese artwork up at Porkopolis.
A
That wasn't his RA. Racist. That was funny.
C
It was just farters.
A
Yeah, the other stuff was actual racist.
C
But you didn't.
B
Chinese.
A
Was it Chinese? I don't know. Whatever it was, it was funny. That was. Okay. You can make fart jokes with any race. It's funny. I mean, you can't have like, what Brady was having was like a lady with a yam and a watermelon and those gigantic lips farting. That's still like. That's. It was the black face of art.
B
Yeah.
C
Is the caricature.
A
Yeah. It was terrifying.
B
And it was like 900 years old art. And it said.
A
Oh, the Chinese stuff. Yeah, sure.
B
But enjoy the barbecue. Baked beans.
A
The other ones weren't. It was bad, but it was also kind of funny. Just in the. I can't believe someone's doing this way. So nothing that would be fun to get somebody's pod, go through their lives. I don't know that anybody. If I. It always. I always put myself in those positions. Like, if I got potted up, what would people be shocked at? The art would be hilarious.
B
And you know what? I'm glad it. It wasn't like a huge pot.
A
Yeah. You didn't get a lot, you know. Yeah.
B
That's less work by 6.
A
Yeah. That's, you know. Okay. Keep it kind of lazy.
C
Be all boxes.
B
It was pretty much all boxes. And There was a 50cc Vespa.
A
Oh, cool. A little Italian thing like a original Vespa.
B
No, it's a just little buzz about the.
A
Kirby's getting that too.
B
Yeah.
A
Everybody will never ride that. That'll be rebooted.
B
Oh, it needs new wheels. It's been sitting.
A
And I'll get it. And Kirby will be. Be bopping around back and forth. It's the coolest Italian kid in school. Hey, man. I got a motorbike, man.
C
Kirby, you wearing a kaiser helmet?
A
Yeah, mine would be.
B
It's a Italian. It's got the Italian color. The helmet.
A
It's got the flag on green.
B
Yeah.
A
My Barry Wood art of the. And the Donald Trump. Peter. All the stuff J. Todd Himes has painted for me over the years. It's down at the apartment. Down. That would be boxed up. Because that would be something I wouldn't. And then people be like, oh, all right. Thanks. Because it's not a known thing. It's a joke.
B
It's got an interesting art collection.
A
Oh, it's hilarious. And then questions abound like that my history would change.
C
Brady there.
A
No Brady. We sold Brady. Some guys got the Brady penis painting. We sold that at our golf tournament. But I've got Barry Wood as the baby on the COVID of Nirvana with this huge dork. I have an actual painting that Jay did awesome job by J. Todd Himes to. To put that one up. And then the Donald Trump one. He did for me, where Donald's wiener is just draped over his leg and it's humongous. I have all three of them. I have all three of them in. Well, Warren Jeff's still in my office here. I just haven't hung it. I have Warren Jeffs with his penis out. All of them are wiener art. It's like Jeffrey Epstein had all that weird art of things like Clinton in a dress and stuff like that. I've got a few of those. But if I died unexpectedly and people went through my stuff and you didn't know if I was the last one standing, and then everybody. Nobody could explain why those things existed. Oh, it would change my entire hill he was into. But it's fun because it's Doug Hopkins apartment, technically. So every time the people from the. The apartment go, hey, we got to change the filters, we're going to come in and do a light switch and stuff. Because they'll do that. They just leave a note. And then they go into TV Doug Hopkins apartment and see these just dick art everywhere. And Doug always calls. Get those down. Those guys are going in on Tuesday. Like I'm not going to have time to get down there. God damn. And he's trying to get somebody to go down there and move those paintings. I'm not on the lease.
B
Well, two of those. The barbecue baked bean pictures.
A
Yeah.
B
Are in two different people's houses.
A
The racist ones you have.
B
Yeah. And the money went to. One went to the save drafts now and the other to Ma'.
A
Am. The clan.
B
Yeah.
A
Oh, ma'. Am. That's different military system. Yeah. Somebody. Oh, you still. You auctioned for.
B
Yeah, you.
A
Wait a minute.
B
700.
A
Hold on. You took your racist art to a charity auction and gave it to them as a sweet, nice donation?
B
No, I did it on my own.
A
Oh, okay. You sold it.
B
So I went to a barbecue festival. Yeah.
A
Oh, okay. I see what you're.
B
And then just went online, said if you want to bid on this picture.
A
You should do a pod. A pod sale. Just open that pot up and let anybody rummage.
B
There's a couple of. You know, since she was in the artwork and stuff. I've got a torch. Acetylene.
A
Oh, nice. You get one of them blowing torches for welding and I have no idea.
C
All I know is how to spark.
A
I'm not playing with that. I burn everything down, blow it up. Oh, my hands would be on fire the second I picked it up.
B
Yeah, there's some tools there that are either.
A
You don't even understand it.
C
That's like old school welding with the. With the tanks and all that.
A
Look it up on the Internet. Don't go crazy with time. Find out what it's worth.
B
Glass, too. That is. That can be used for something. In other words, like rods and sheets of glass.
A
There's a glass plate in the ass.
C
Damn Groupons.
A
Years ago, we did a glass blowing thing.
C
Glass blowing thing. It was actually pretty cool.
A
But you're never gonna do it again, though.
C
Probably not.
A
It's. It's.
B
You'd fire it up once or twice. It's almost like we had a kit. She had a kiln in the basement.
A
Yeah. Not doing that.
B
And Ronnie was thinking about bringing it.
A
Back and doing kiln stuff at your house.
B
Convert that to a pizza oven.
A
Yeah. That's the only thing you're gonna cook in it. I was gon. Immediately. If there's fire in a box, that's not going to blow glass. That's going to blow pie. There's no way. Yeah. I think the glass blowing thing's a lot like being an Australian shepherd. Like, you do it. And if you're a regular dog, you're like, okay, that was kind of fun. Sheep are fun. But some Australian shepherds see sheep for the first time and like, oh, I got to do this every day of my whole life. I think that's like glassblowing. It's one in every 10 million. Think I'm going to do this twice.
B
And you can do some ceramics in it, too. Like you want to throw your own plates. Whatever.
C
You won't do.
A
If Ronnie wants that kiln in your house, she has to sell her singing bowls and get serious about it and make her own.
B
And it go. It would. It would go outside too.
A
Of course. It would go. Where are you going to put in your kitchen?
B
Well, she had it in her basement.
A
Yeah, but she probably had ventilation for that 1800s house.
B
It was a seller.
A
No. Yeah, that was. She was trying to burn her house down. That's dumb. Anyway, good luck with all that. That sounds awful. Just awful. At 6am on the grasp. We'll go with it. 6am code word for this first 6am box. Grasp. You get on the app, take it in the app, put grasp in the 6am slot. Try to get yourself a thousand bucks. We're off and running starting that thing as well. Yeah, I would like that. I would like. I would like someone I know to. My dad's done that. And he's. He always tells me, like, when I die, here's my codes. And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no. I need you to know my codes. And he sends them to him. Like, I don't even know what this for. I got about 35 gun safes. I want you to have them all. I'm like, you've been in my house. Yeah.
C
Too many guns.
A
I have. I'm like, where am I putting that? You'll find a spot for 35 safes. You have a giant barn. What am I going to do with this? I have hundreds of guns. Dad, I'm here. Listen to what you tell them all the time. I'm like, you're 78. You're in great shape. I want that to continue for as long as possible. Start selling off some of the guns. Don't make your death my job. What are you talking about? I don't want to sell all your guns. That sounds. And then I don't know what the values are. One might be meaningful. I don't know. And I sell it for, like, 40 bucks.
B
You're like, I'm not letting go of that.
A
Well, no, I sell it for.
B
But I don't know why. I think you keep majority of it.
A
What are you crazy?
B
Just in case something happens. Well, he's waiting for 15 minutes. You can at least get an hour now out of it. You got more lead.
A
Yeah, well, trust me. My dad keeps telling me that the. When the Civil War starts, right? Everybody. My friend Dean came out a couple weeks ago. We were talking. He's in Texas now. And I said something. My dad's in this. In the middle of nowhere in Fredericksburg, Texas, goes, oh, the Hill Country. That's where I want to end up. And I'm like, why? He goes, because that's where we fight back. And I'm like, what the hell are you talking. Well, when the Civil War happened, I'm like, oh, my God. Are all of you this way? Is the whole state doing this?
B
You'll see.
A
Yeah, because he was, like, excited about the Civil War, too. And I'm like, why would they attack hill country Texas first. Why are you guys so dead set on that? Being fun to prep for. No, it's not. It's crazy. So I told him and sell stuff. And he's like, well, you're gonna need some of these in case. I'm like, no, I'm not. I'm not fighting for food. I'll use one of your guns on myself before I'll start firing away on society. That doesn't seem good.
C
Put it to use. That's all he's asking.
A
Yeah. You'd think I'd be one of the people that's on board just plugging away, hungry folks coming to my house and bugging me, but I'm not. I'm not one of those. I would be one of the hungry people. I recognize my lot in the apocalypse. I'm going to be. I'm going to be one of the first starving ones. I'd sell all those guns for food, and then I'd get shot by one of them.
C
So what, you'd have a week with whatever you got in your house?
A
Oh, no. I would ration it up. I got. No way. I got maybe. Well, I mean, unless you count scooping out, like, the last of the ketchup.
B
As food you need to, you can live on.
A
If I could just scoop that out, maybe. My dad told me a long time ago, he goes, you gotta be. You gotta be smarter than this. I'm like, what are you talking about? You've got a pool. You can filter that water that becomes drinking water. The first thing is shut down is the city services. That water's gonna be a commodity, like, so there'll be, like, zombie people trying to fight for. Why wouldn't I just let them have my water? You're gonna need that. I'm like, I don't have a filtration system for the chlorine. It's gonna kill me.
C
Who is this they?
A
Well, them. You got to be careful of them. Yeah. The day thems are actually starting to.
B
Happen, hang gliders coming in.
A
He's calmed down about. Oh, yeah, he's calmed down about it, but he honestly believes that it's going to be a necessity to have that arsenal. And maybe he's right, but I. If he is, I don't want to be here now. It doesn't sound fun.
C
Oh, I'll pass your number on to my number onto your dad. I'll take some of those.
A
Oh, no, you're not getting anything for free. I'm going to sell them, and I'm just telling him to sell them and for himself before. Yeah, he knows the value.
B
Tell your dad to do it or have him have a third party, because.
A
I already told you.
B
End up. You know, once you look at that stuff, it's harder to say, well, this.
A
Was the first thing.
B
I have. Torp's 1868 emporium from the knife collection.
A
Oh, the knives.
C
Yeah.
B
We called his. The stuff that he saved and stuff. The 1868 Emporium. We'd get him pieced out every year at Christmas. You'd get this package. Present.
A
Yeah. And it came from his old knife. Yeah.
B
Now I've got.
C
Your dad was laundering weapons through your family to me.
B
Yeah.
A
The dumb one will handle it. I mean, Brady. Ah, geez, they said it out loud.
B
There's a good chance you get shanked. At my house.
A
There's 100 knives by a Lincoln age blade. That's good. I like that. Yeah.
B
A couple of collectible John Wayne pocket knives.
A
I'm sure my dad's got that.
B
Yes, he does.
A
And I. And I. Look, the first thing a gun, you know, Antiques Roadshow gun guy is going to do if I have to go through that, is see the word sucker right over my head. He's like, oh, this is no good. This one's worth a buck and it's like a $10 million gun. I don't. I have no idea what he's got and I don't want to be the one responsible for that. Like. And he's alive. He doesn't need all those guns. Sell them, man. Sell everything. Enjoy your life. I want my. I'm not one of those people that's waiting for any of this to happen so I can strike it rich. I don't. I don't want to inherit any. I want my dad to spend everything he worked for. I want it to be his and I want that to be all his. I don't. I'm not looking forward to that. I don't want that to be the case. There's always going to be something left over and that's it. That's. I don't. I want him to sell it all.
B
I've got one item that I. I just. One of the knives, it was a relative of my grandfather's. He got it off of a dead soldier.
A
Yeah.
B
Oh, yeah, it's a SS officer we got.
A
You got a German one and a Japanese one?
B
Yeah. You don't have the Japanese ones missing? Oh, I think cousin Jeff has that.
A
Cousin Jeff swiped it off. Oh, that was grandpa killed himself a Jap and got his glasses and a knife, right?
B
Yeah.
A
And then another one of your grandparents killed a Kraut.
B
Yeah. It's a mini. And I'm like, how do you put that online and sell it? Like, what are you doing with that?
A
Do you think there are kid me?
C
There's marketplaces for that.
B
Oh, there are. But it's just weird.
A
Just dawned on me. Do you think in Germany there's like a kid going, my grandpa's got an American soldiers, like stars and stuff? Yes, absolutely.
B
Sure.
A
Just dawned on me that why wouldn't they throw that away?
C
Recognizing Japanese as.
A
Well. That's gross. Vietnamese. And they've got, like, trophies of American soldiers. That pissed me off immediately. Like, immediately thinking. And I got mad. But we talk about it for their side. Like, it's not a couple people that.
B
Have the collection of, like, multiple helmets.
A
Yeah.
B
With. With the bullet through the helmet.
A
That's horrible.
B
And they would write messages on their helmets, too. Like, you'd see that in Apocalypse Now.
A
Yeah.
B
Little messages on. He's got the German messages on the helmet.
C
Think about Private Huff. Him.
A
Yeah.
C
Watching that German soldier go by.
A
That's right. Man, I can't even imagine that I didn't think of them having American stuff. Makes me want to blow everybody up again. Let's go kick some more asses over there and start. Oh, I bet you there's. There's Afghanis with American trophies. You sons of bitches. Oh. Wants me to drop a little sunshine on him right now. I don't know why that made me so mad, but we're talking about it the same way we got Japanese. Yeah. Oh, man. I would. You're making me angry. After Veterans Day. Who do we nuke today after that? This conversation's pissed me off. I wonder what they would do. Like, if you. Like if you were a German kid and you came over to America and you saw. I remember there was a kid named Drake that came over from Germany as a foreign exchange student, and I got to be kind of friendly with him, and I wonder if he went into anybody's house and grandparents, because that was, you know, back when World War II. Grandparents were still kind of hanging around a lot. And he probably met some people like, ah, Crouch.
B
Oh.
A
And then that still hated Germans. They were trained to hate them still. And they had trophies. Ooh, that's gross.
B
Bob Ray brought back a.
A
The naked guy.
B
German woman married her.
A
Is that the naked guy?
B
The tank commander? Yeah.
A
Your naked neighbor.
B
Yep.
A
He. His wife rolled in one of the tank.
C
Naked tank commander.
A
Oh, man.
B
Grabbed a FRW line.
A
You didn't tell me he had war PTSD that no one had because World War II, they didn't.
B
Oh, he had some.
A
Oh, he had a lot. That's why he was naked up in the window.
B
Yeah, a couple. He was going through some stuff.
A
He was a disaster. This neighbor of yours.
B
Wow.
A
That's. And he brought back up Annalise. He brought back a prisoner and had three sons that. Oh, little Nazi Aryan boys. Oh, my God. Your Bob Ray story gets better. And better. He was a mental wreck.
B
Legend.
A
He's a wreck. He was a mess. Was he allowed to work? Did you ever notice any of that?
B
So he worked for a beer distributor?
A
Yeah. He lost jobs a lot. I bet.
B
Velvet ice cream. Which was a company scooping it? No, selling it to retail accounts.

B
Beer and ice cream.
C
How to be on a sales call with that guy?
A
I'm gonna whip my dick out. I got. I hate pants. Don't you hate pan? What did you say, Mr. Ray? Don't you hate pants? Please leave my ice cream emporium. That's enough. You want to buy more vanilla? I'm gonna show you something you'll never forget. He just stood in the ice cream window naked.
B
Walked their pug. Winston every night with a full size.
A
He named it after Churchill. This dude was. He never left the European front.
B
The biggest concern was when he's walking Winston the.45 at night. We knew it. He'd always.
C
During the day, the biggest concern was.
A
Yeah.
B
Let me tell you.
A
In the window.
B
The biggest concern for us is Bob couldn't stand cats.
A
Oh.
B
And he's like. If one crosses my path. That's why I got the.45. Like Bob.
A
Wait a minute. He walked his dog in your old neighborhood. Which I knew hunting. I'd been there. There was no reason to carry a weapon. No. He had a.45 and a Pug.
B
Yeah.
A
And I don't know if he carried it. And he went out and he wanted to shoot animals.
B
Cats.
A
Only because he reminded him of German.
B
Must be.
A
That's exactly what you guys. Oh. Because you never ask questions in Upper Arlington. I'm going to tell you. Your biggest concern was him jerking off in the window to the kids next door. Second biggest concern was him walking around reliving World War II with Winston.
B
Winston lasted a long time.
A
I did. I think.
B
I don't know. Winston Churchill.
A
Yeah. It was Winston Churchill. Cigarettes no, it was Winston Churchill. He already had Winston as a pet. Those were in his pocket. Winston Churchill. And he probably smoked Winston's because it reminded him of his great European leader, Winston.
B
And talking about having a collection of relics that he got from Germany. Their house was furnished with this wood. Carved china, cabinets full of Hummel and German crystal.
A
He fell in love with Germany.
B
Annalise had, you know, her grandmother or her mother still lived there.
A
Yeah.
B
And she would send stuff back. Part of. I think she came from.
A
Yeah, he was in love with Germany. He liked Alma, had some money, he wanted to stay. And he might have switched teams. My ex wife's dad had a twin brother, and the two of them would talk about Vietnam. Like the mall.
B
Yeah.
A
And he went back after. When he got back here, he was working. He's like, ah, this sucks. And he. He became, like, vice president of Vietnam Airlines. He couldn't get enough of that place. He went to Vietnam and went, this is heaven. And he's just shooting at everything, like. And I said, why did you like Vietnam so much? And he goes, because it was all free. I'm like, what?
B
And he goes, they still throw that out there. You can live in Vietnam.
A
No. Wasn't the money, like, literally, American soldiers could steal women, houses, food, anything we wanted. That's why he liked it. He goes, there were no rules. It was all free.
B
I wonder if that's what Tang.
A
High on the plex, maybe. But he loved it. He loved it. And he. And he was like, I'm going back. And because it's just this. He loved Vietnam, and he never left. America sucked. His wife was Asian. They got divorced. But she. She was very pretty. Vietnam, Vietnamese woman didn't take her out of the jungle back in the 70s, but he got her in the 80s and. Or 90s, actually launched her. And she stayed up there in, like, Paso Robles, California. Pretty happy for a while there until he started to go, we're going back. And she was like, no, go back. No, because we're going back. I don't want to move from Vietnam. We come here. I marry you. I marry. I married Charlie for a reason. You're going back with me. And he wanted to be in Vietnam more than anything. Bob Ray sounds like a guy who was pretty nostalgic for Germany. He liked it.
B
He liked plowing through.
A
Yeah.
C
And the layers of your onion.
A
Yeah, there's that. That Bob Ray story you need to start.
B
Usually you'd get a tank story from him.
A
Your biography would start as 10 pages and end at 10,000. Because the guy writing it would be like, finally, somebody's asking questions.
B
Oh, yeah, there's that time.
A
Oh, yeah, there's the World War II veteran who lost his mind that everybody acted like was normal. You were just told Bob raised nothing. But there was a. In your neighborhood, right? Now, if there was a guy back from Afghanistan that walked around in your neighborhood at night with a.45 threatening to kill cats and had a dog named Schwarzkopf, would you be like, he's okay. Kirby should know he's okay.
B
And I don't know if you remember.
A
Well, answer the question, sir. What's the question? This is where the rose colored glasses.
B
Would Kirby be okay?
A
Not would Kirby be okay? Because I know your answer is, he's fine. Your imaginary man isn't going to kill. If that was happening in your neighborhood, wouldn't it be cause for concern?
B
I'd be doing the same thing Bunny did. Knock on the door. Knock it off.
A
You would knock on the crazy veteran's door who carries a.45 and threatens to kill the cats of the neighborhood.
C
Try to be the guy in charge.
A
And just say, that's enough of it, or what a normal person would do. Warn everyone, he's scary, be nice to him, but stay away from his house. That's what normal people do. You would go to his house.
B
You didn't have to worry about that. That was pretty much most people. Other than us, you were the only ones who would approach the house. Because I still was. You know, David Ray was my age, and then his older brother, Muck Rat Ray.
A
Yeah, that's right. So of course that's normal, too. The other families in Upper Arlington were like, those rays. Not for us.
B
Sure.
A
Yeah. Okay. So it was known that they were crazy.
B
Yeah. Because when.
A
Yeah, well, no, there's a lot of. Because it's. We know. The nudity.
B
When Annelise is storming out of the door, yelling in German to stay off the lawn or whatever.
A
It was a known fact in the neighborhood by everybody but the bogans, who wouldn't accept that anything's bad, that this was the house of insanity.
B
And maybe it was mostly me going over there because Annelise bought sugar cereal. I mean, that's right.
A
And it's a German. Mom.
B
Eat.
A
You are a mystery man. And you just gotta ask questions.
B
Oh, yeah. Annalise, my mom, would you like a little feed, my son?
A
Would you like us a Sugar Pops? You're a very portly little boy.
B
That was light. She had the Fruity Pebbles.
A
Oh, yeah. Good stuff. Well, I mean, Sugar Pops actually say sugar in the title.
B
I know, but it just doesn't.
A
You've had them.
B
They're not as.
A
I like Sugar Pops. I don't mind the milk. Tasty. They make milk taste like. Like women's breast milk. I know that sounds weird, but I've had some, so. That lady shot in my mouth. I'll never forget that flavor. I'm like. It's like sugar pop milk. Anyway. Yeah. So that's what I wanted to hear at the end of that, which is you were the only ones that. That just acted like the rays were normal. Everybody else was being distant and cautious. Pretty much that thing in my neighborhood.
B
If I found out. Yeah, because the boys, you know, we'd. We'd go camping a lot. Bob would never go.
A
He could be in the woods.
B
David, Mark.
A
He probably wasn't allowed out there for fears he'd start firing away. And anybody that came close, screaming, kraut. Kraut. He wasn't home.
B
You know, he might have went on one.
A
I want to hear you say it.
B
I want to know that.
A
Yeah, I need to hear you say it. Bob wasn't all there. That's right.
B
Oh, yeah. No, he. You know, we let him.
A
No, no, no. You don't let him do anything. He was doing what he wanted.
C
Bob took seats.
B
Oh, we let Bob be Bob.
A
Yeah. Bob wasn't home. You get everybody else was on guard, but he wasn't. Oh, here we go. Don't qualify it.
B
He wasn't like the.
A
Let me recap before you say this sentence, okay. Naked in the window multiple times. Had neighbors actually move away because of it.
C
Carried a gun for cats.
A
Carried a gun to kill the cats in the neighborhood walking the door.
B
Not every time, but it may.
A
Does that matter?
C
He did this this time. He doesn't have his gun.
A
He's out there gunless tonight. Everybody's overreacting. It's a good day for Bob. Is that normal to you?
B
Yeah.
A
No. The answer is clearly no. Now finish your sentence before I gave you a little. You were about to say he was a. And then I stopped you. Because before you say.
B
The only thing that was fearful is going over there because he'd be upset. The boys would fight all the time.
A
Let's not go to the only thing that was fearful.
B
That was the one thing that was fearful that what? Bob would go to the belt.
A
He would beat the kids as well.
B
Yeah.
A
That was what. Those three little tiny gems. But we had sugar cereal.
B
As far as a belt or spanking no, that was pretty common.
A
Oh, spankings are fine. Yeah, but you're saying that the neighborhood knew there was.
B
He didn't have to go to it a lot of times, but that was there. It was abuse.
A
Doesn't happen every day, but when it does, you remember. I don't know what. I don't know what kind of punishment my friends got from their parents. I assume there were some spankings and I know there were some groundings.
B
Well, when John and Mark got into a fight and John wanted to shank him with a knife. Break that.
A
Where'd he get that from?
C
And where'd he get that idea from?
A
You grew up in an insane asylum. You don't even know it.
B
Shanking for their. They got Bob brought home some straw, like pea shooter straws that were designed.
A
What's that, like mini blow dart. Oh, okay. Yeah.
B
And there's a bucket of them. So divide them up.
A
Let me ask you this. Where do you get that?
C
Oh, back in the day, you could buy pea shooters.
B
You can get them. Yeah.
A
You could buy blow darts.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
When I was alive.
B
And it wasn't designed necessarily for the blow dryer. It's really a pea shooter. You load it up with.
A
With peas.
B
Yeah, they're like rubber balls.
A
Oh, okay.
C
They were green.
B
Green.
A
All right. I don't know what that.
B
So anyway, he had a bunch of them in there and they're different colors. Divide them up amongst the three of you.
A
Just eye poker outers. I'm guessing it's mostly what they became. That's why they're not allowed now in.
B
The fight happened.
C
Come on. John is the 70s, you know, there was no choking.
A
I was a better time. I'm not going to lie.
B
John accused Mark of stacking the. He's got more peace shooters than I do. Escalated. Here we go.
A
So much like the war. One side had more weaponry. The older brother was time to attack before it got too out of hand. And Bob bought them weapons.
B
Yeah, the peace shoes.
A
Well, is this a time when the police were involved? Anytime that. No. Bob beat his kids or there was any sort of weapon play in the house. No, no, police never came. Even for the nudity.
B
The only time they came is I saw some guys. They lifted the wrong house. When I was little. There's guys stealing bikes out of garages. Yeah, and I saw him come out of the raised garage.
A
The bike kid.
B
The thieves.
A
Oh, no kidding.
B
They had a minivan or not a full size van, just generic white.
A
Yeah.
B
They took over 19 bikes out of Our block because you have your bikes outside or.
A
Sure you weren't worried about.
B
Yeah, for Arlington.
A
Except for Bob Ray walking around shooting the cats.
C
I'm gonna ask a question I think I know the answer to.
A
Oh, my God.
C
Whatever became of the Ray boys?
B
Mark is buried. Has a daughter.
C
Married or married?
A
Married or buried? I heard buried.
B
He's married.
A
Okay. He's been buried.
B
Might be divorced now. Mark had a little struggled with the bottle.
C
Little psychotic break.
B
All right. I was one for two.
A
One of them wasn't gonna make it.
B
It's an amazing wildlife conservationist.
A
Who? The drunk rat? Okay. Mug rat.
B
Ray.
A
Good. Christ, man. Good.
B
David's a photographer and I believe works at the Columbus Zoo.
A
Well, there you go. Thanks, Brady. Thanks for the trip down your poor memory lane. No questions. No questions as a child. None. Why was our neighbor naked, Mom? Why have severe ptsd? Do we know that? Now? A lot of Those World War II veterans and Vietnamese veterans, the Vietnam veterans, they didn't have the treatment we have, but they had the horrors of war in their heads every day.
C
Vietnam especially.
A
No one ever went to Bob and said, hey, he's the crazy veteran in the neighborhood. Just stay away from him. You were allowed in.
C
Keep the fireworks.
A
You were allowed to go to the guy's house after the nudity.
B
I, I. So I didn't know about.
A
Yeah, but your mom. Later. My mom would have stopped me from going to the naked guy.
C
Well, there would have been an excuse why you.
A
You're not allowed over there anymore.
B
Well, when.
A
When it happened the first time.
B
Yeah, I was out of. I was in college.
A
Okay, so you don't have to make it about you. It's.
B
I know, but so it. Exactly, but.
A
So you weren't going to the houses anymore.
B
Right.
C
And let's. Let's clarify that the first time it happened. Where they knew.
A
No, they not even knew about it. Where they did something. They finally put their. And you were already in college. Like that is enough.
B
Because he. Yeah, like you said, he could have been doing it multiple times, and then these were the times he got caught.
A
These are the times he got caught. There's one is too many multiple nudities and then neighbors moving. Bob Ray was an insane person. I want to go back. I just changed my mind. If time machines get invented, I just want to go back and go. You people are living in false bliss. Ask questions. Questions are the devil and the cancer to the truth. Like, no ask questions. There's a naked man next door. You guys are turning blind eyed. So he's walking around at night with a dog named after Winston Churchill. With a.45. He hates cats. You got no questions, man. Let it be. We're all still here, right? Jesus Christ, man. That is great.
C
On the flip side, we never would have had the story.
A
That's a fact. Yeah, and Brady wouldn't have this.
B
It was a joy living next to Bob Ray.
A
I'm sure.
B
Across the street.
A
Sure it was. I'm positive. Yeah, that's right. And we're changing that now with the reality of what actually occurred. Because Upper Arlington, you guys, I've been there. Let's pretend there's no problems. It's very weird. Nobody said hello to me. They just said, go, Buckeyes. Not a single hello. The bank teller. Everybody walk up and like, hey, how you doing? Go, Buckeyes. Okay, I need to make a withdrawal. Go by guys. I heard you. The hell's going on? Gas station.
B
Hey, coach.
A
Go by guys. Okay? What is going on? Other naked man up there in the window. Hey, you're naked. Get out of that window.
B
Go.
A
Bye, guys. No, don't say that right now. Come on, guys. Weirdos. Anyway. Well, grasp, which is a reality concept Brady has yet to have. Grasp. Grasp it is. That's the word for 6am Throw that in the box and do that. Didn't intend to talk about Bob Ray again this morning. We learned more. 25 years and counting. And you trying to think of any.
B
Other Bob Ray store?
A
Well, yeah. Ask questions, call your mom and say how come nobody addressed Bob's ptsd? What was with the gun and the cat thing? Oh, there's nothing.
B
Brady.
A
Talk to another family.
B
I probably knew more about the. The gun and the cat. You'd always talk about hating cats.
C
Who else had replied on the block?
A
Time out. If he was always.
B
We had two cats. I'm like, bob, these are our cats.
A
Okay, you just proved yourself wrong. That you'd be the only one that knows that.
B
No, I'm not. Like I would know more, maybe than what Bunny would know.
A
She didn't know about Bob's satiable appetite for murdering cats.
B
I think it was all talking. I don't think you should take your cats out. All that stuff gets brushed under the rug.
C
That's why. Horrible.
A
You know what I want to do? I want to be gay with you. And I want to become an alcoholic and a drug addict. Because you're the most codependent person I've ever met in my life. You are. You accept everything and make an excuse. It was all talk. That's Horrifying talk, though. I'm going to kill all the neighborhood cats if I swear to God, if I see one of those little Nazi bastards. Mike. What, David?
B
I run him over with my car.
A
And not a single person said, hey, Bob, let's bring her down a little bit. We're up to a 10. We need to be about a 5 with the murder talk.
B
Oh, it was said by who?
A
You said that he was so hard.
B
To really come down hard on him when he has his velvet ice cream.
A
He bribed you with treats. Don't tell anybody our little secret there. You bet. Mr. Ray, you want to go cat humming. You want to go roll some cats? I'm knocking them down one after. You think he. He killed a few cats? He ran over a few cats and then came home and people's cats were missing and Bob never, ever said a thing.
B
Well, in our neighborhood, we never had any cats missing.
A
Maybe he drove to a Hilliard or something and drove over the cats there and then came home. Serial killers sometimes know better than to do it in their own neighborhood. They keep their. They keep their plate clean and they go out and dirty up other areas.
B
He also could have been raised on a farm, you know.
A
Okay, no, he wasn't. He wanted to kill them because they were evil. You can grow up on a farm and recognize barn cats have to be taken care of. Yes, they eat a bunch of stuff and then they breed, and you got a whole bunch of cats running around, and there's a chance he just hated the individual cat. And everyone in the neighborhood knew. Right? You don't think everyone knew about him walking around with a gun, wanting to kill cats? If he talked, you said he talked about it all the time.
C
That's on you guys not being responsible for the neighborhood.
B
He's patrolling neighborhood.
A
When you say he's our guardian, good Christ. No, he wasn't. When you say only you knew, was that.
B
No, no, I. I'm not the only one that knew.
A
You said you heard him tell my brother, so.
B
Yeah, again, I've heard him talk about it. It wasn't all the time.
A
You said all the time. I'm using your words.
C
No, if it was all the time, then everyone hope that everyone would have acted.
A
When you feel, has he been there?
B
Might have been, you know, UA police came by one night. They're like, you can't carry that.
A
Put your pants on.
B
Yeah, put your pants on and put your gun away.
A
Start toting that gun.
B
Put both guns away.
A
We're not killing any cats tonight because I Got worried for a second when you said I might have been the only one that really kind of knew all I knew. And that made me just think that at night you were asleep. Hey, kid, wake up. Hey, Bob, put some pants on. I hate every cat I see. From cat A to cat Z. Do you want to go out and kill with me?
C
You were like Lieutenant Dan. He was. And you were Forrest. Holding the knife to your neck in the middle of the night, going through some. Some of the tremors.
A
You fat little German mother. I had to cut your throat right here.
B
Bob. Something bit me.
A
Bob, time for bed. Bob, you should go lay down. You seem angry. I swear to God, you eat any more of my sugar cereal, I'm gonna shove this knife straight up your ass and cut your heart out the opposite direction.
C
Bob, you drink all the alcohol in the house.
A
No, my son didn't. Good night, Mr. Ray. I'm gonna take you down, you little fat cat. Good night.
C
See you tomorrow.
B
What's with the pantyhose over the head?
A
I'm gonna that mouth of yours before you turn 13. Good night, Mr. Ray. Have a great night. He talks to me at night. Cause he cares.
C
Whispers in my ear.
A
Time for bed. Hey, Brady, why is your neck bleeding?
B
What?
C
Oh, Bob Ray showed me how sharp his knife was.
A
Is he in your room again, threatening your life?
B
Yup.
A
Bob Ray's a card. Good night, Brady. Night, dad. It all started I want to call my brother. It all started when Brady believes that the entire neighborhood started to call his father Torp after Brady nicknamed him friends from college nickname. Yeah, that seems reasonable. We'll call you Torp too, because you're named Torpedo after your card game skills with the kids. And everybody in the area just accepted that is not story 100%. No one earns a nickname from their kids with their college friends, high school, it doesn't matter. Not your high school friends, his.
B
No, his old men's my high school.
A
I understand that you're not following me. Your high school.
B
You're saying he had that name before?
A
I'm saying Houston knocked down bitches like crazy down there in Cuba. And his name was Torpedo because he was rocking them.
B
That. That name Torpedo. You think you did until 1979.
A
There is no truth to that. Oh yeah, I met his friends when I was in Columbus and they called him Torp. They wouldn't.
B
That's how good of a nickname.
A
That's how dumb you are. Is that you believe? You probably heard it, never thought about it because you didn't ask questions. How come everybody calls my dad Torp? He's the Torpedo. And then your dad's like Torpedo. You kids gave me that nickname. Not my friends when I was in the Cuban Revolution. Torp was not his nickname.
B
Torp Muckrat Ray.
A
Yeah. You gave some nicknames. I'm not saying you didn't. You all love.
B
Founded in 1979 by you.
A
You were the nickname out hander.
C
No.
A
Someone in the none of this is real. No fellow car. No grown man. Do you think that if Kirby nicknamed you something, I'd call you that?
B
Yes.
A
No. I knew you long before. I'm not going to do it. I'm having enough trouble. My friend Dorsey changed his name to Dean legally. And I still call him Dorsey all the time because that's what I know. Nobody that knew torp up to 1979 was like, hey, that's great. Let's just change everything about that. Those kids are right. Why didn't they just call him dad since you guys did too? That's not a real thing. You think it was. No, no. The whole city wouldn't have been call me Torp. My son does. That's just weird.
B
No, Tom, he wouldn't lead with that.
A
Everybody knew.
B
That's how well I spread the word.
A
No, that is not. Or maybe Bob snuck into everybody. We're starting to call Tom Bogan Torpedo. If you don't want your throat slit from end to end or your guts opened up from your nuts to your gullet like a two pound trout, start calling him Torp. You got it, Bob.
C
You don't want to see me in a dark hallway.
A
You don't want me hearing you saying the word Tom ever again.
B
Kidding. You got it, Bob.
A
From now on, Thomas Torp. The kids won't have it any other way.
B
You bet.
A
Do you think his friends from college call him Toledo? No, nobody does.
B
Because that was founded here. That's right. Yeah. So why did 1979.
A
Why did your dad's friends from college call him Torp?
B
Friend from college.
A
I met two of them at the. At your house.
B
Tad Weed.
A
I met a couple of guys at your house who were your dad's card playing. Like a college guy and a card playing guy and they were both about 80 and they both called him Torp. And ones I've known him since 19. Like that's great. He calls you Torp.
B
That might have been Trapper Dan Palmer.
A
I don't know who it was. I didn't pay attention to Trapper. All right, that's great. Yeah. Anyway, what Were you the kid in the cornfield? Everyone lives here. All right. That was the guy. Yeah, it was. They hunted. They talked about hunting and. I mean, that was the dude. And they've known each other forever. Yeah, and he called him Torp.
B
Yeah, because we started calling. We also called Trapper Dan.
A
All right?
B
Late in life.
A
It's not true. It just isn't. It just doesn't add up. It's like the Bible. None of it's.
B
It can't. It is contradictible.
A
It doesn't. It doesn't add up.
B
These disciples went out and spread the word.
A
It doesn't matter.
B
His name is.
A
Doesn't add up. Does not. We're working on it, but it doesn't. Eventually, he'll come to. You have to worry about Bob reading of the gun every time. Those are the types of people we're dealing with here. Golly, Brady, it sure is fun. I want to visit Bob Ray's grave and see how many people have, you know, vandalized it. Son of a bitch. Like, he's the worst man in the neighborhood. There's just feces on it every day.
B
Oh, my gosh.
A
This man ruined my life.
B
You'll find a pint of ice cream.
A
And a bucket of feces in a blue bell. Let's get a wake up song while you're typing the word grasp in there and we're trying to figure out what the hell went on. Give us that wake up song. Five eight, five, 9800. A good one. And we'll scream it together. It's 98 KUPD.
B
Wake up.
A
It's not weird. It's pretty cool, actually. No membership fee. I have heard enough of this for you. P.D. hornberg's morning sickness. 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 PT. Matter of time. Police show up for that guy. Yeah. Matter of time. It's 701.
C
If we only knew.
A
We only knew what really went on. Matter of time. We got a guy we work with. We're almost positive it's going to end up. There's going to be like 18 cop cars, all the lights on.
C
Oh, Netflix special.
A
And we'll all be sitting in weird lit corners of rooms going, no, I didn't interact with them.
C
Shot of us coming into the room to sit down on the chair.
A
And his co workers didn't have any idea or did they? We asked them. What did you know. I honestly, I. I found us. He was weird. I wish. I never expected he'd kill. No, I don't have that. Oh, did you? Actually, actually we talked about it. Oh. Ryan says all those end of times people like your dad that as soon as the world goes to crap have to know that I'm just gonna kill myself. Like you, John, I wouldn't survive another economic recession. I'm not waiting in line at Walmart to check out. I'm not waiting in a breadline for a handout. And I'm sure as hell not trying to outlast my neighbor for pool filter water. I'm not hoarding. People like that can't comprehend that my gun's gonna have one bullet. And as soon as APS says hey, the grid's down and it's probably for good, I'm done. Yeah, it's a fact. You take away tv, Just go to bed early. Like if the TV stops working. Well, guess I'll just go to bed. It's 6:30am I supposed to entertain myself. I don't know how to do that. This is great. We got the word for 7am Winning. Winning W I N N I n G. Winning is the 7am code word to take it in the app. Trippy Phoenix Moscow and you can get winning in your code box. Qualify to win another thousand bucks. Cameron emails and says, Dear Mr. Jonathan Holmberg. I'm not a Jonathan, but it looks good on paper. I moved to Orlando in 2018. I lived in Arizona for 21 years. I've listened to every single show since I was a senior at Corona del Sol. Go Aztecs. Do you get any credit from the Bob's for out of state interactions on your app? I assume I'm not eligible for any contests and stuff. I just wanted to know if I count in your app numbers. Love you always, Cameron Garcia.
C
Yes, 100%.
A
And here's the thing, Cameron, talk everybody in Florida, wherever you said you're from, into doing okay. This is awesome. Get all of Disney World to download our app. Just stand out and do it. It will confuse the Bob so much that they'll start targeting Orlando for something they're so stupid that they'll actually like have a campaign to got some massive amount of listenership in Florida.
C
Got to send people to Disney World.
A
They won't know what to do with it and they'll create something out of it because they react to everything. Everything that blips, they, they move. So if we can do some false Blipping. Send the Bob's and some wild goose chases. That'd be fantastic. So, Cameron down there in Orlando, please. Thank you, first of all, for hanging with us for, I don't know, when you were a senior in Corona, but 21 years and probably a good long time you've been listening to us. I beg of you, wherever you work, just say, hey, do me a favor. Download. Download this app and lie to your co workers in Orlando and say I could win $10,000 from this radio station. If I do, I'll split it with you. If you download the app, you're not going to win anything because you're in Florida. You're not allowed, you know, but just say, that's my station over there in Arizona. They don't know. And then you create like this crazy amount of blips of people in Florida and our Bobs will start going, huh? We couldn't believe what you're seeing with numbers across the country. This isn't just a local show at all. There's plenty of people in other places. They lose their minds over that. They'll lose their minds over it.
C
Our download numbers in Florida and they'll react.
A
Maybe we should put John on in our Port St. Lucie station. Oh, yeah, do that. I'll be a. I'll be a handful there when you come down and meet the affiliates in Port St. Lucie. No, Bob, no, I'm not going down there. But we put you on there. I'm not even Zoom calling. I had no. I had no. Pay me. I'll do it till it fails, and then we'll stop. They react to everything. They're human mosquito bites. They just bubble up the minute.
C
Human history.
A
The minute. Yeah, the minute something happens, they get a rash. They're insane people.
B
But please, you're not up for like.
A
The Fort Myers squares, not changing a goddamn thing.
C
Why does he call it Guadalupe?
B
I learned that from Okeechobee Square.
A
I learned that from Jonathan Brandmeier back in the day when he. He was big on KZDP when I was a kid and moved to Chicago and just became a massive radio guy. And KGCP is like, well, he's ours. We should have him back. And the dude told them, I'll send you my show, but I'm not doing anything for this. Like, I do a show for Chicago, so I do a show for Chicago. He's like, all right. So you would listen to it and be like, hey, it's Johnny B. And blah, blah, and he'd do a thing. He's like, all right, let's take a look at traffic. Although Dan Ryan this morning, they talk about Chicago traffic for like four minutes and it didn't work. And he was like, I don't care. I'm not breaking my neck for Reno or St. George or Las Cruces or Port St. Lucie. I don't care. I live here. I want to be here. That's the. The beauty of radio. It's locality. But we do have a lot of people listening in other states, a lot. So if all of you could do us that favor, you would make the Bob's lose their minds. And that's all I care to do. In my last five years here. That's all I care to do, is make one Bob end up in a long jacket or like something crazy.
C
Let's go for all of them.
A
One Bob. Here's what I. Here's my dream. One of the radio Bobs has to get talked off of a bridge. That's it. Like, there's a big. There's a Met police presence. Like, he's on. He's just hanging. He's not really going to do it.
C
I want your own Bob Ray situation.
A
Yeah, I want him just standing on the edge of the bridge going, I swear to God, I'll jump. Like, no, no, come back in, Bob. It's okay. The Orlando thing was. It was a ruse. Why has he got to be such an asshole? Don't worry about him right now. He's out of your life. And then they bring him back in, put one of those weird silver blankets on him and stuff him in a car. And that's the last we see of that Bob. That's my dream of the bops. They put him in one of those little children's beds in the back of those ambulances. All the Bobs are about 3ft tall. Children's bed. None of the Bobs are tall.
C
Toddler bed.
A
All the Bobs are toddler.
C
Ambulance.
A
All of them are little and they're all weird. Speaking of little and weird, did you see the. The news on the Golden State Killer?
C
No. Oh.
A
You don't want this news coming out about you. And this is. I want. I've said this about serial killers.
C
Did we off him?
A
I don't remember.
C
Let me look. Yeah, anyway, sorry.
A
Golden State Killer is. It's a. His name is Joseph d'. Angelo. If you're looking. Joseph d' Angelo is a Golden State killer. He's brought to justice. And why. And it all just came out because if his. His penis was so small, it Was an identifying thing. They say it was the size of. Of a very small pinky finger. That was what people like it was. That's gonna drive micro. The Sacramento County District Attorney, Theon Hole, and his new book, the People versus the Golden State Killer. The focus is on Joseph d' Angelo's little penis. He's writing about law enforcement obtaining circumstantial evidence that corroborated the victim's testimony with Joseph James DeAngelo's wiener.
C
Brady. I don't know Bob Ray, but if.
A
I had to picture Bob, that's what I'm seeing. It looks like the Golden State Killer. It said. Because of this testimony, the DA had to get on his knees and take a photo of DeAngelo's genitals. But grew frustrated after several attempts. Threw up his hands in exasperation and said, there's nothing to photograph. There's nothing here. The hair is covering it up. He was directed to spread his legs and pull back the foreskin. So they knew, and they got the money shot with the camera. It proved how small his manhood was. Smaller than the circumference of a dime. Length was equal to the tip of a pinky finger. Circumference of a dime. He killed 13 people and I guess, quote, raped 50 in horrific crimes. But he wasn't arrested until 2018 because. DNA. The weirder part is, I guess, I suppose if. I mean, at least for my money, if I'm gonna get raped, that's the guy I want doing it.
C
Wait, what? Oh, yeah.
B
Okay.
A
You know what?
C
I'm sorry.
A
Like, if I'm. It's a terrible, terrible thing, but it's like, oh, God, not this. And you're like, oh, this isn't so bad. He's just kind of bouncing off me. Oh, you're. Ah. Ah. And then you just put out the noises you're supposed to put out. Kind of like my truck makes fake noises through the speakers. Terrified. Ah. Are you done? Oh, what a violation.
C
Kid is supposed to detect trauma.
A
Yeah. It's like if we do a rape kit, you're.
B
You're.
A
You're fine. No, I'm not. It was terrible. No, no, no, no.
C
I know the psychological.
A
Oh, the event was a miserable nightmare. But, you know, silver lining here, Christine. I mean, if it's going to be anybody, but I think all serial killers have something wrong with their wieners. That's a big thing. I think there's a.
B
You don't think one of you is like one of those Big.
C
John, kick me, huh?
B
Such a Small package. One of the guys that sit in the person kicks him in the nuts. Fetishes.
A
Wow.
C
You go to weird places.
A
Wait a minute. You don't. You don't participate with the rapist. You knew. You want me to kick you in the nuts? I'm just gonna start running if I can kick.
B
Still, if you felt like you were forced to do that.
A
Well, sure, if you had a gun. Take me in the nuts. That I would have charged for. But here's the thing.
B
Strangling, you know, other stuff you don't have to.
A
That's attempted murder, though, if I'm kidding. If I'm kicking you in the nuts, that's going to be a never ending kick. If I'm fighting that hard and this dude's got a gun to my head and I can kick him in the nuts, guess what? I'm throwing loads more than just kicks to the nuts. I don't know how that happened, but.
B
But I'm saying he, you know, or he's not even using that. Maybe he's just orally.
A
Huh?
B
Orally raping the person.
A
Is that even a rape? I would enjoy that. The guy's like, if you don't have.
B
Your pants out, you don't want someone down there and they're doing it. That's rape.
A
That's a rare, rare thing for me. Boy, that's a strange.
B
Why is that strange? Because you'd have to get hard raping somebody.
A
You'd have to get wood.
B
What rape is.
A
Oh, I understand that.
C
I'm just saying he's.
A
He's gonna blow me.
B
Yeah, he's doing it. No, because he was bloody raping women.
C
Yeah.
A
Yeah.
B
But I'm just so he's going down maybe, you know, I'm not sure what you're getting.
A
That's an easy fight right there.
B
Yeah. He's not using his sword.
C
Well, because there's nothing to use. But the reason they use their sword.
A
Is so they can dominate you.
C
Dominate you.
A
You're not in a dominant position. That's the old Patrice o' Neill joke about how Mike Tyson was innocent because the girl admitted that he performed oral sex. And he said, mike. He said, you. You can't. That's impossible for the rapist to go, all right, shut up. Nobody can hear your cries.
B
Shut up.
A
You don't do that. Rapists very rarely are. Like, let me please her, man.
B
Well, yeah, that's not even that. That's. What if you're tied down and they're doing well, sure.
A
Then we're talking More than likely. All right, you can't defend what you're talking about as if, like, this is like a rape. Everything.
B
Defending what? That. That wouldn't be rape.
A
Not for me. I would enjoy it. If I got hard and the guy was going to blow me, I'd be like, wow, this is the best rape ever.
C
I mean, yes, of course I agree with you, but I think the. The number of instances where that may have happened.
A
And also you've drifted way off course here we were talking about something real, and I don't know where this came from. What if he's just orally pleasing them? Like, I guess it's a bad day.
C
Kicked in the nuts.
A
Yeah. You're just in an awkward spot. Thank you for. For that. But yeah, I mean, if somebody's like, I take your pants off, I'm gonna blow you. Like, ah, okay, let me see what I can do about my end of that. Yeah. Orally pleasing a woman if you've already tied her up and stuff, it's torture. You're way beyond like what we're talking about. But, you know, he's raping and running, torturing. So that's kidnapping. More than likely killed them. Yeah. Shut up. Nobody can do you like that. Kind of let him stop. Is it delicate? Am I being too rough? No, no, no, no.
B
So he uses the tiny button.
A
Yeah. You know what? That's what he was doing. He's spreading the DNA. Yeah. I don't know. You're angry about that?
B
Well, no, because how would you trade?
A
Like, huh.
B
Toledo said there's a trauma kit I put on there.
A
A rape kit? Well, that's what they call it, a rape kit. Yeah. They can still tough from DNA. And you know the girl's story. We're not diminishing the rape part. Yeah, but I. All I said was before you went crazy was if it's going to happen, at least in my world. And then that's the guy want doing it, you know?
C
Right.
A
If I want a guy with a dime circumference, end of a pinky penis to be like steel dominating me. Oh, yeah. Way over that guy.
B
Yeah.
A
As terrifying as it would be, it's like, yuck, this is disgusting. But I'm no worse for wear.
C
If the guy's raping you from the doorway, that's a different thing, Right?
A
Yeah. If he's got you. Help me with this. No, I don't. I don't want to do that. Shut your mouth. No one can hear you cry. Are you doing what? All right, I'm gonna let this part pass. Yeah. Because if he's raping me down there with his mouth, I could kick the crap out of that guy. Kicks, squeeze, just a couple hammer fists at the top of the head and you're pretty much in charge of that.
C
Couple elbows.
A
Oh, yeah. Oh, you can just. You do some dominating.
C
I know that that's.
B
You could.
A
But if you're tied up, you sure we're all. That's. You're talking about something that's. That's way down the. Like, That's a whole different bag of beans there.
B
Well, I'm your.
A
Yeah. Oh, he is definitely that, but. Yeah, but you're just assuming something that wasn't down on the story that maybe he did tie people up and perform oral sex. That's.
B
Yeah. Because we don't have any details like.
A
Well, let's not make them up completely. We didn't know we raped them. But you're just saying. Is that a, you know, little foreplay? Maybe some candlelight? I don't know. I don't know how weird it got. I'm just saying that if I'm gonna get raped by a pee pee, let's stay on course. That's the one I want to. That's the one I'll take.
C
We prefer our rapes traditional.
A
I don't like mine to last too long, and I like them.
C
I like to venture off course into.
A
Sit and chat afterwards too, because I'm tied down. So how's your day? It was good up until a few minutes ago. It could be better, I guess. You know, I gotta be honest with you. Your penis is a dead giveaway. I'm gonna turn you in. Oh, no, you're not. I'm gonna murder you. Well, then it's more than rape. But thank you for the oral sex. You're welcome. I'm a tender rapist. Wasn't Tender Rapist a song in the 80s? Yeah, yeah. Bob Brown, Tender Rapist. Yeah, it's a terrible story. But to be identified as your dime, circumference, end of pinky, finger, penis. And that's your get. That's how they caught him. And a guy taking a picture of my wiener turning, going, I can't get a shot of it. We got to have him do some work. That's a terrible. But I honestly think that most serial killers have a penis issue. A small penis will drive a man mad. I think a lot of the times those guys have something wrong with them down there that makes them feel sexually inadequate, which is why they do what they do. Especially for power over women. Because I don't know. I don't know that I'd have made it very long in life with a button like that.
B
A tough gig.
A
Oh, on those are the ones that I'd be like, I'm just going to swap out. I forgot.
B
I'm not going to get married.
A
Well, you're certainly not going to get again. Where are you going? What do you mean, I'm not going to get married?
B
Like, if you had that.
A
Sure. You're not even worried about marriage, I don't think. I think you're worried about anyone ever liking you.
B
Yeah.
A
No one will ever like you. And then he's got this resentment. That's why I said you just switch out at that point. I understand the whole. I think I'm just gonna go be a woman now, because I wasn't. This is an easy transition. Be worse if you had, like a long set of scrotum balls and stuff. Yeah, that just. You just look like you've got a turkey neck hanging off the middle of you. Kevin says, do you think Brady's brain is active when he makes bizarre comments like that? I'm positive. He's not thinking about the question before he asks it, but we're glad he does.
C
It is true, according to Gemini, there is no scientific evidence or data to suggest that most serial killers have small penises.
A
Nah.
C
Criminological studies have not found a general link between penis size and the propensity to commit serial murder or sexual crimes. The motivation for sex crime, such crimes is rooted in complex psychological factors and not typical physical attributes.
A
A lot of goofy going on. But I have a feeling something about their penises have either been, you know, mentally that they're. It's the dirty work. Like, that's the Ed Gein thing. You know, it's just using that thing for any pleasure was just terrible. His mother and God told him that every single day. And so he was, like, fighting the urges of, like, but I want to use it. So she caught him beating it and then just turned it and putting women's pants on. Because that was the close he could come to a woman.
C
He wasn't beating it.
A
Oh, Ed Gein.
C
Oh, Ed Gein. I thought about the Golden State killer.
B
Oh, I'm sure that.
A
I'm sure the Golden State guy. Oh, it was like a DJ scratching a record.
C
Yeah, that's more like it. He beating it in. In my turn.
A
He tried a few times. He knew where it was. When the photographer's like, hey, I need you to do something. He's like, here, I'll get it out.
C
Well, you know where your urethra is, right? That's all you have, apparently.
A
And I know how to make that work. You work your equipment is what I'm saying.
C
So for I. I didn't know this part of the story. I know you said that the last gal came out, but part of his identifying properties in all of the cases.
A
Where every case said is disturbingly small.
C
Yeah, small.
A
Yeah, super small. That became evidence. And then when they caught him in their life with DNA evidence, they caught him, and then they're like, all right, we need to take some pictures. Because all the. All the women say he got little. They took one of Michael Jackson's wiener because they said it had moles on it and stuff. Yeah. And that was in Michael's. Remember when he did that singer. They took photos of my penis.
C
When did he say that?
A
It was on that TV show that he did.
B
One kid claimed that they could.
A
They could identify as dead.
B
They're saying, point out.
A
Well, he talked. You know, he talked about the details of Michael's penis. And Michael. Remember Michael did that. He was on a TV show where he sat down for 30 minutes and explained his side of it. He bought time on tv. I've been through so many different things, and they. They took photos of my penis. Everybody's like you because the one kid said, this is what it looks like. Trust me, I'm right about this. And they're like, we got to take some pictures of that thing. So they did. Yeah. So you got a button dick on top. It seems like it would be more of a struggle. Snuggle would be a better legal term for it than.
B
Yeah, basically dry humping.
A
Said, I worry about Brady after the Bob Ray situation. Do you notice he had a lot of scenarios that weren't being talked about? He brought up during the conversation like, he's been in some situations. He's a good guy. But let's keep an eye on Brady for a couple of days. Yeah, I think so, too.
C
Can we go deeper with Brady? Brady, no offense, but is there an experience that you'd like to talk about?
A
Something that you'd like to bring up here? Of thee unwanted oral sex kept happening. Why do all these Ohio State fans keep blowing me for tickets?
C
Sorry, Brady, but, boys, check Brady's recent Internet history. There's something going on that may.
A
Right. That was a drastic left turn. We didn't see that coming. Yeah, it's all right. Don't get angry. It Was a left turn, Brady. Oral sex is a left turn. When you're talking about the Golden State Killer, it's definitely a stranger. And with rape in general.
B
Sure is. But if someone doesn't want it, you're getting arrested for us. I am sexually assaulting someone.
C
It's very.
A
Because it's very difficult to your side.
B
Is saying, oh, well, if it's oral sex, it's fine.
A
No, I'm not. First off, welcome to the show. These are jokes. Thank you.
B
Well, well, kicking in the ball start off.
A
No, I didn't know that because it came out of left field. That's what I'm talking about.
B
The. All the videos we see these guys that get off. I can't imagine a guy with a big piece is. And we've seen both.
A
That was the explanation. You said he had a sign says, kick me. And I'm like, huh? And then you went left field on getting kicked in the nuts. I'm like, well, that would be interesting. But if I'm kicking him in the nuts, it's an easy out. All I'm saying is, and I'm not saying it's okay. I'm saying it's hard.
C
You skipped the on ramp and went to the expressway.
A
Yeah, and then it took us for a left. It's very hard for oral sex, unwanted oral sex to actually occur. Most people will fight that off. Then you bring in the caveat of, well, he tied her down. Well, we're. Now we're on step 12. Yeah, it's totally different now. But if Toledo came over here just gung ho about blowing me, we're getting. We're scrapping, and it's gonna be awfully tough for him to get down there. And also, if I'm a wreck during the scrap, I get questions my own.
C
Self about me, things I've learned on this show. Giant penis size gets celebrated on a podcast. Small penis size kid takes on an off ramp.
A
No. Old NFL wife goes on and goes, well, we had to divorce because he had a pinky sized D dime for a penis. No. You hear about the three Coke cans? Sure, sure. If you go outside right now and manage to perform oral sex on a woman, you're probably going to jail. But it's more for the tackling and violence than it would be. And then he tried to perform oral sex. Then I got out from under that. That's an easy win right there.
B
I just. I'm.
C
And I know it's wrong, but the term violent and oral sex together, that's biting. Really weird. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
Now it's not oral sex any where. It's just cannibalism.
B
Right, Right. I just. I, I.
C
My brain doesn't see it that way.
A
I want to watch it. I gotta be honest with you. I want to watch it. I want to see that lay down.
C
Oh, we're getting in trouble for this, probably.
A
Look. Yeah, it's all right. We'll. I'll pay it. I won't, actually. Yeah, see, that's where the. That's where we're driving this way. And then it goes over here, and you're like, whoa, that's interesting. I gotta try.
C
I apologize to every victim ever.
A
Oh, no, don't do that. That's the. Don't do that stuff, because now you're making it worse. Yeah, just go with the run with the jokes, you dumbass. I'll handle this. Go back in your room. You turn the wild left like that. And then. And then you gotta. I gotta try to steer it back. So winning is the word for the promo code. This morning I was just talking about the small penis of the Golden State killer, and next thing you know, oral sex, rape comes up, and that's not something I'm. Oh, that's very common.
C
Thank you, texter. A texter has given us a visual. That's his hand in a dime.
A
Oh, my God. Yeah, that is a dime and a pinky next to each other. That's what the dude was packing. Thank you for that. That is a good visual. So, man, oh, man. Huh?
B
How do you rape with that piece?
A
That's what we're saying. It's the best.
B
Why? I was trolling.
A
They didn't follow the beginning, which was, if you're gonna get raped, there's the guy you want to do it. And then you brought up oral sex somehow. I don't know how that happened. He's probably doing that to him. Holmberg's morning sickness. I don't know that he was trying to give him great pleasure. Rape isn't about the sexual. It's not about the act of lovemaking. It's about the power involved. That's why a guy with a little one can climb on top and go nuts and rub that little bean up against you and make you. My point was, if it was happening to me and he pulled his pants down and I'm like, oh, I would fake a few scary noises and then just let him finish.
B
Yes.
A
Kind of like if a dog starts grabbing your leg like a cane Corso decides to hump your leg, you're Just like, ah, just let him go. It's off. He's not gonna bite me, is he? No. When he's done, he leaves.
B
Okay.
A
It's just crazy. It's bananas. By the way, Brian Hansen would like to say that he just drove by the Rebel Lounge and December 6, violent oral sex will be live at the theater. So great family. Violent oral sex. They're a jazz band, the vos. Yeah, I. VOS is solid people. Always. You know, if you don't have the writing right, it looks like VO5 and they got sued for that, but it's VOS. It's pretty outrageous. Good stuff. By the way, I'm on something that I love, which is Pluribus. Have you started watching that yet?
C
I have not.
A
The new Vince Gilligan show is on Apple.
C
How many episodes are out?
A
Two right now. And this is what I love that.
C
So it's weekly. I can catch up already.
A
I'm angry at Paul who works with us because Paul is a guy we watched. It's Vince Gilligan who did Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. In my opinion, two of the top five shows that have ever been made. Maybe Breaking Bad is number one. Sopranos or Better Call Saul's number. Sopranos and Better Call Saul are just outrageously brilliant television. So it's. Any argument made for any of those shows being the best ever. I'm fine. The wires up there. You get all those arguments. I'm like, yep, you're not wrong. There's no. There's no quantifying it. It's just personal taste. Pluribus is Vince Gilligan's new one with Ray Seehorn. She was in Better Call Saul. And the first two episodes are very, very interesting.
C
Is it X Files? Because they very much to his. His roots.
A
Yeah. But I keep like I'm again subtext because those stupid teachers ruin me for watching stuff normal. It's, you know, it's. The first two episodes are awesome. If you haven't seen it, I'm not giving anything away, but Paul, across the way, we used to talk Better Call Saul, everybody. Monday or Tuesday after, we both watched the episodes that come out weekly. Like, okay, this is out on whenever it was Monday nights. I remember when it aired. Oh, we would watch it and lose our minds on Tuesday, you know, analyzing all that. We knew what's going to happen next and it was just great talk. And that's what's missing from societies. The commonalities of entertainment or just general commonalities. We're all just fractaled off into these Spaces of. I'm not here. I'm not on episode three. Blah, blah, blah. So I go to Paul, I'm like, I'm starting Pluribus tonight. I'm hearing a lot of good things. Are you gonna watch? And he goes, nope, I'm gonna wait for all of them to come out and I'm gonna binge it. I'm like, ugh, then we can't have anything. I can't talk to you about it. And we got so much out of the talks that we had when Better Call Saul was on after each episode. And Paul is a meticulous. So he's great to watch this stuff with and have water cooler talk. So anyway, that sucks.
B
But it's a little Easter eggs in the.
A
Oh, Paul was really good at, like, just the details of little things. Not even Easter. There are some Easter eggs in this, though, like Wayfarer Air and stuff like that. So anyway, the whole show is based on the idea that, you know, these guys watching the planets and stuff down there at the satellite, the. They call it. What is that, the VOS or. No, that's what the band we just talked about. There's the. All those satellites that run across New Mexico have a very large array. It's the vla, it's called. Very Large Array.
B
Yeah.
A
And it's just tons of satellites on train tracks. They can move them around. There's like 100 of them. Anyway, so it's down to Mexico. They go there first, and a guy says, I found something. And they get this code from space. And, like, this is clearly communication. And they put the code in, and through the code, they figure out how to make what they're telling them to make, which is a synthetic, like, DNA. And it spreads. It's like a. It's like a virus, right? So it spreads everywhere. And right now we're at the point where. And there's no giveaways here. Right now we're at the point where almost all of Earth, save for, like 10 people, are on board with this virus. That doesn't kill you, it just makes you. It puts you in a link to every brain on the planet. So they become a we. So metaphorically, they're saying, we all say we should be one, we should work as one. Well, this is taking that to the next level of saying, here's what that looks like. We work as one. Everybody knows what everybody else's history is, what their. You know, everything. So it's almost like Waymos. When we finally get all autonomous cars, they'll communicate with each other.
C
Right.
A
And they'll all know where the other ones are. Yeah. On the road. And that's what it is with people. So Ray Seehorn is one of the immune ones, and she's trying to keep her independence and individuality rather than just fall in line, which is the metaphor of we're all mono thinkers. We fall in a group and we don't have secondary thoughts. We don't ask questions. We don't. We just all fall in line. And the beauty of it is, is that they make the falling in line part look pretty euphoric. Like everybody's at peace.
B
Yeah.
A
There's no fighting. They're all happy. They're like, I know everything. You know, if you're seven or eight years old, you can be a. An astrophysicist, a doctor you can do. You can perform open heart surgery. They make a line about that and they go with it. And then. So Ray wants to meet, and they're very kind. She wants to meet the other people who are immune to it. And so she said, I want to meet him. Because she's like, fighting back. And every time you get mad at one, all of them faint and some die. So she's technically been responsible when she lashed out at him for like, 22 million deaths.
B
What?
A
Yeah, because she's like. She screams at him, like, get out of my way or get off of me. And physically. And they just don't like confrontation. So they.
B
So one feels one.
A
One drops. They all drop.
C
And it's an overload on it.
A
And then a few of them die. But, like, like, in a world of 7 billion that she asked, how many people did I kill when I did that? And she's like, well, like 11 million. Like, oh, my God. And then she does it again later. She loses her temper and gets him again. And she realizes she's like, the biggest mass murderer in the world. And so. But they're still trying to help her. And they're like, we haven't figured out how to get the immune ones to our side, but when we do, we'll talk to you about it. So they're just doing nothing, but. So she meets the other ones, and they're kind of like, this is great. I ask them for anything, and they give it to me. The one dude wanted to. They were all meeting in a. In a location together, and the. The. We sent them, and he's like, we're waiting for one more. And like, oh, it was like. Well, he had a very special request for a specific aircraft, and they're at the airport, and then Air Force One lands and this dude gets out. He's. What's up? It's like, he's. I can. They'll do anything we ask. It's like, this is amazing.
C
So she's found other immune people.
B
Yes.
A
She asked the. The we. I want to meet the other ones. And then they pause for a second. She goes, we've all agreed on it.
B
Wow.
A
And it's like, we'll find. We got it. They'll come and they all meet. And it's crazy. It's. And then it made me realize, what would I be if this were to happen? Would I be the independent? Like, I'm gonna fight this or would I. I know exactly what I'd be. I'd fall in line with the we. Because it would be awesome.
C
Can I be bummed for a minute here? Is there only. Since it's on Apple tv, is there only gonna be like six or seven?
A
I don't know. No, it's four seasons already. Vince Gilligan does. Oh, so they've already. They've already agreed. But the first two episodes of the. The first show that. The first two episodes. I'm not like, nah, maybe like, I'm in, like, this was really good. I don't know if it's four seasons.
B
If the first season goes well.
A
Yeah.
B
As planned. Right. Because a lot of times they can. It just doesn't get any worse.
A
Well, it doesn't matter if it's planned or not. They just basically gave Vince Gilligan this because they're like, you do it. You've kind of got a great track. Yeah. You've kind of given in the past and we're going to trust you on this. And people are right. There's an email that says it's an allegory for AI. It really is, is that AI will have all the knowledge. It already does. And once we all tap into it, the ones who are left out will be individuals who only know what they know rather than know everything. The phone is sort of that, you know, it's got all of man's history, plus every bit of knowledge of today and tomorrow.
C
Yeah.
A
And you're in the palm of your hand. I don't think we realize how much we're walking around with. So, yeah, it's kind of got that metaphoric feeling of like, AI will have connection to all of it. And if it all becomes that humanity as it. Because they all become basically AI bots, and humanity will stand alone as sort of the last of the human Way.
B
There's a religious undertone in that too.
A
As well, some of it.
B
People falling in line and the ones that are, you know, going against the system.
A
What's everything about mono thought, you know, even prior. Yeah.
C
Like a texter said, it's hive mind is what they.
A
Hive mind. It's unreal, and it's such a great thing. And I realized, I think I'd. I think I'd be one of the people that wants to be a hive mind.
C
Really?
A
Yeah. It's good. Not that I want to. I don't, like. I don't want to do it now, but if it was a takeover and we all did it okay. I don't know that I'd want to fight for independence. That was. Again, like I just said, if there was an end of the world thing, I ain't gonna shoot my neighbors for water. I'm not standing in line for bread.
C
So this isn't in an apocalyptic kind of thing.
A
It's in an odd way. It starts off like, oh, are they. Zombies are gonna kill? And then you find out, no, they're super nice right now.
C
Huh. Okay, yeah.
A
And then what's coming? And then we're all really nice.
B
Wiped out. 22 million.
A
But it isn't about. It isn't about, like, domination yet. It's about everybody. Like, just unithought, and everybody is everything, and they're all in connection with. Again, it is AI and it's. Well, again, I use Waymo as the example. If all the cars were Waymo, we could go 250 miles an hour because they would be communicating with every. Everything. You could talk to the drivers, go, this dude's doing this. So I can stay off that. And we could go faster and better. Because if everyone is doing this same thing and all communicating without interruption, there shouldn't be any big mistakes. And the only thing that can screw that up is human interaction.
B
They kind of sell it. You know, when you get married, basically, you want to be of the. Well, yeah, they say it, you know, of the same mind.
A
It's the phrase, we are one. Yep. We are of. But nobody actually is. But what if you were.
B
You strive to be, but you can't.
A
It's. It's nonsense. It's nonsense to be one. You can't. That's the point of the independent brain and body. You just cannot be one. You can be connected and you can be pretty similar, but you can't be of the same mind.
B
Now will say, well, you know, you can try to be on the same page. But also embrace the fact that you might not be.
A
Well, also embrace that you're different people. You're different trying to be one on you. See, a lot of your friends end up being half shells of themselves because they've just caved on every. Everything they used to be. But that isn't caving. Like, you absorb everything she knows. She absorbs everything you know, and then you live in harmony. It's different than just trying to do it. It's a fascinating thing, and it is. It's the allegory for AI and it's, what would you do? Are we better off with all the convenience? But there's no fighting. Everything's peaceful. There's no reason to fight. But then again, you can argue that it's like, well, that's what, on paper, socialism's supposed to be. We're all even. We all know the same things. We all do this. It's crazy. But it's such a good show right off the bat. It is, at least. But I haven't been locked on something this quickly. And my favorite part is the episode again. New one comes out on Friday, so there's actually anticipation again. And I don't have to sit and go, oh, I'm not going to watch him. I like, there's nothing worse than when you try to binge something. You get tired of the show you like because they're always on. I tried that with Game of Thrones and I'm like, I can watch two of these if I get to a third one. A, I'm the laziest prick on the planet. B, I'm tired of these characters after two hours. The reason movies are. Are two hours long is because after a while, like, I'm sick of these people. You don't even want people in your house for three hours, let alone, you know, written.
B
It is kind of nice to watch two or three episodes. Sometimes, like, I jump back into them. Mayor of Kingstowne.
A
Yeah, if you get two wins, you're good.
B
Third one, you start getting started again.
A
You start getting that third one in.
C
And you're like, we did that with Landman. When everybody started talking about it. We caught like four episodes on a weekend night.
A
It's just two minutes. I love Billy Bob. I don't want to have four hours solid of Billy Bob and give me a couple. And I'll take a break and give me some anticipation. Where's the anticipate carrot on a stick Goliath?
C
His show on prime is really good.
A
Yeah, I like that one.
C
That was Good, good.
A
But I don't want to sit and watch 14 episodes of unless I'm sick.
C
No, no, I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying.
A
But give me a week to absorb what I watch, think about it and do stuff and talk like this. And then another one comes out. Oh, this gets better. And anticipate from.
C
And then I had a hard time following it from. From talking with people who really liked Severance. It was that way where they waited a week before the next episode came.
A
Out and suck it in.
C
And then the people who liked it that found each other were really talking about it a lot.
A
It's good. You're gonna like a Pluribus. It'. Apple. It's pretty cool.
B
And some of those, you know, you get past the season then the next season does come out for another year.
A
And you kind of forget oh yeah, it's too much. And then you binge in a weekend.
B
Now I gotta go back and review it. Or if there's a.
A
Because you didn't. Because you quick studied instead of actually taking it in. That's Pluribus is pretty solid. Watch that thing because it does it starts. You start asking your own questions in your own mind. Like which would I do? Because it looks pretty good. But you know, coming up the pike here there's going to be a twist that is like ah, being in the mix of this thing is going to lead these. Whoever sent this message back to go all right. They're all. All we have to do is one thought. They'll all think it. We don't. It's minimal work to make them do our bidding to become slaves. So there's a lot coming.
C
It's John, no offense, but if we all got hive mind I'm going to get tired of you jerking off.
A
Yeah. And that with that imagine 7 billion of them. You know I'm not the only one, right?
C
So there's all at a scheduled time. You think yeah.
A
Where everybody gets. And you have all their thoughts. You have. Think of this. Oh no you can you if you want to tap into mom's brain for a second. Yeah yeah.
C
I knew you're.
A
When mom rubs the. You got all her thoughts in there too. Can you Even when they're dead.
C
Can you?
B
Because it is amazing when they first.
A
Whenever you tune in five minutes. If I think okay, Toledo is like I can go right into like I have all your thoughts and all your. And all your feelings and everything and evidently that's fine. But everything's a recorded basically it's not recorded on. Like, I'll say that, but I want to be literal with it. But it would be as if your brain was a database and recorded everything ever that's happened to anyone. And you've got it, John.
C
Is Kim Wexler a waif in this one, too? I needed her to put a little meat on those bones, and she's in good shape.
A
She's fine. She. I don't think she was ever a waif. You have. You like them big. Because Kim Wexler was never a waif.
C
I didn't see her as a way.
A
No, I didn't either. Like, Ariana Grande is a waif to me.
C
Yes.
A
Kim Wexler's a healthy person. You like. You like a girl who's. You got a butter. Doorways, evidently. Anyway, the thing about the hive.
B
The queen.
A
Yeah.
B
Everyone knows to protect her or you know when to do it. But then each role that you're saying, the relief would be, oh, I'm. I'm a worker be. I'm the drone.
A
Yeah. No, this is. Everybody has everything anyone else has in their brain. If you're a doctor, I know everything you know, and I know everything you've been through. And I've got it with everyone on the planet except 11 people. And it's just. We're all one gigantic. It's AI all one gigantic brain, and we know and can do anything we want together. And it was kind of an interesting thought. And at first. On first blush, you're kind of like. It's kind of interesting. I think I might be joining in on that, because you know everything, but you're not different. There's no uniqueness to anyone. Maybe physically there is, but that's. It was pretty cool. It's a good. It's just. I mean, for two episodes to, you know, kind of grab you that quick. It's pretty awesome. This one says, what about the people on the other side of the planet who are sleeping? How do you fall asleep with 3.5 billion people's thoughts? You don't. You don't have that. You have access to it. Oh, okay. It's not like you're just constantly ravaged with everyone's thoughts. You. You can. You just know what you know. It's. Your brain knows everything. And if you think, oh, Brady, I can. I know what he knows. Everything you know I know. And everything I know you know. It was interesting. It was pretty good. To Waymo. It's basically way more Waymo that Waymo car knows what that Waymo car knows. And if they're driving next to each other, if they're the only two cars, they can go 5 million miles an hour and never bump into each other.
B
They.
C
You know, there are people that say that 75 of Tesla's value is in the fact of the information that the cars gather on.
A
Yeah, but this isn't about that. This is just basically like we're all in the same.
C
No, I'm saying because Tesla is the same way. They. They will.
A
They interact each other. Right. And eventually if we're all doing that autonomously, it will go. And then the one thing that can screw it up job is a human being who's not on the page trying to go 200 miles an hour with them.
C
Is that the end of creativity? Is that the end of.
A
Don't know.
B
Well, maybe it's better.
A
Have you seen what AI is doing with music?
B
But.
C
But is that pretty great creative of AI or is that the creative of the input?
A
It's creative of the AI at this point because it's got all the knowledge.
B
To do it, but enjoyed by humans.
A
Why can't it be enjoyed by AI?
B
I don't know.
A
That's right. We don't know.
B
So.
C
But I still think that the. The. Because the genius is in the person.
A
Who gave the promise as we know it. Why are we now again, the. The Homer conundrum kicks back in here. The arrogance of man thinking we've got this figure out what if it's better that way.
B
Yeah.
A
And we're fighting it. Because I'll tell you right now, knowing everything on the planet versus what I know now, one way is kind of.
C
The end of discussion, wouldn't it? Because everybody would know the answer.
A
They seem to figure that out. Watch it. You're gonna love it. It's just, it's. This is the type of stuff that just the conversation about it starts, then you watch it, man.
C
I want to have the discussion.
A
It's intriguing. I'll say it's intriguing. And that's what I want is between episodes is to talk somebody else watching it and going, oh, yeah, yeah. And then if this happened to them, what would you do with that? And then you get onto like the story.
C
Jesus, it won't end 15 years ago, coming in, talking about the Sopranos episodes.
A
Yeah, that was more than 15 years ago because it ended in like 2005. So. Yeah, it was great. Those were great. Breaking Bad, all that stuff. It's good to have a show where Game of Thrones, each week you got a new thing. We all can kind of unite. It's a good show. Trust me on that one.
C
John. God damn it. How does your first masturbation thought go to your mom and not do a little.
A
I didn't say it was a masturbation thought. I said, you know, when she's jerking off. Like, if you wanted to tap into mom and. And say, what's Mom's history? You'd get it all. You get her first boyfriend, you'd get everything. Is that good? They bring that up in the show, too. It's like he, your son, can now tap into if he wants to grandma's thoughts and see everything she's seen and know everything she's known. Is that good?
C
It's a good question. Does Pluribus have anything to do with the show? Is the name meaning.
A
Means many.
C
Oh, okay.
A
It's Latin for many or. All right.
B
Yeah.
A
And so. Yeah. So this is the Borg come to come kind of. Yeah. Yeah. That's a Battlestar Galactica thing, isn't it? I don't know. It's great. It's a good show. Watch that. Let's get a wake up song.
C
John, this is the dumbest thing ever. I am against this. I'm already taking my fat shots now. I'm gonna have to have Brady's thoughts about food. This is the stupid thing of all time.
B
I am out.
A
You can control both. If Brady's thoughts are intrus, which they kind of are already, you can stop them by saying, yes, that is Brady, and I understand it. But you're at peace with it because you have. You have access to everything. It's up to you to grab it. The world's a filing cabinet and you choose what you want, but you just know there's no threat. It's all peace. There's no anger.
B
No. Yeah.
A
So everybody knows everything already. So you're kind of like just having chats about stuff that interests you and. Oh, and see that.
B
Which is.
A
And they weird. The. Right. Of course it's weird. That's the fun of it. It's pretty good.
B
Your mind around.
A
Sure. Yeah. But when you see the difference in where they're presenting it, it's pretty awesome. It's pretty good. Yeah. Wake Up Song is brought to you by our friends at Action Ride Shop over there. Power and McDowell is out there on Saturday enjoying the gang up there, Josh and the crew and everybody who was up there screwing around. I think Jennifer downstairs bought herself a bike. She's now part of that. Running around on E bikes on the canals and stuff. Like that. That you want to get that. We're going to get some snow this weekend according to the weather. We'll see about that. So now ski season is officially upon us. Thanksgiving's a couple weeks away. Start planning that. But you got to get ready for it and head over to Action Ride Shop a little bit north of the 60 on Gilbert and get your ski stuff. Already they've got you covered for anything you want to do outside. Action Ride Shop is ready to go. Action actionrideshop.com. what do you got on the big board there? Toledo?
C
How about this one? Lincoln Park. Castle of glass for Kirby's new hobby.
A
Her new glass bong. That whole house gonna look like organ stop pizza with all those pipes that she's gonna have running.
C
It has to be dead. Memories, John for Brady. He does not remember anything correctly.
A
No. Well, wow. Or purposefully he corrects the memory.
C
The rooster from Alice in Chainstone. Temple Pilots. Cracker man. Bullet for my Valentine. No easy way out for your discussion now about hive minds. She builds quick machines for immediately.
A
There it is. I like that velvet revolver Will be. We're late. See, that's your fault, Rich. Yeah, it was pretty cool. Mead Lawson says I will discuss this show with you weekly, sir. All right. You got a deal, buddy. That's. That's happening. Because I. Hopefully it stays good. Vince Gilligan has earned that because Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul were so well thought out that, you know, it deserved discussion after each.
B
And you can dive into plural bus without having those. It's a total opposite.
A
Well, he's a sci fi guy, so. Yeah. I mean, it's not. But there's.
B
You don't have to have Breaking Bad.
A
Well, I mean, if you liked it, you're going to catch a. Like the airline they were on was Wayfarer Airline. And that was the. That was a common tie. That was a fake airline that was in the other series. That's just a cookie. You won't have any. They're in Albuquerque. But that's just where he films his stuff. So it was pretty cool. That's a good show. Two episodes. I won't say it's going to be great forever, but that's what we used to do. You don't have to. Don't blame me if you don't like it either. It's just not everybody's gonna like it. I do. This is a good one here too. A velvet revolver already? Geez. This thing is 18 years old and I just read it. The album was called Libertad. And I saw Tart. I saw Libertard. Switch the R's. Libertard we'll call it. She builds quick machines. It's 98. It's not weird. It's pretty cool actually. No membership fees. I have heard enough of this morning sickness. 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 years of pity. Been a year. It took two people to perform that song. Two bands Five Finger Death Punch along with Babymetal off of the 20 years of Five Finger Death Punch album that is floating around out there. That's a good one. I don't mind that at all. It's 806. The 8 o' clock word for ticket in the app is bonus. B O N U S bonus. That's the 8 o' clock word. You got about 35 minutes to pop that into that promo code box on our app. Maybe win 1,000 bucks. That's as good as it gets. Keep getting that money thrown at you and satisfying the Bob's. We had Cameron from Orlando email earlier and I tried to encourage him to get everyone he knows in Orlando to download the app whether they like us or not. Just to confuse our radio exec Bob's and this guy says all right John, I'm with Cameron. I've been listening since I lived in Phoenix back in 0405 and I listen every day here in North Carolina at my shop there's a couple of us skilled, well paid individuals. We have a couple hundred working for the Cummins plant and they all have business phones. All of those phones are getting the 98kUpd app today. Carolina's numbers going through the moon. Thank you very much Taylor. Oh and then he signs it eat that Bob's.
C
Thanks Taylor because you're actually one of the reasons Carolinas we do really well in yeah evidently. No, it could be too Cameroon and.
A
Carolinas this guy emailed and it was a great email. He said my goal now is to get everyone I know in the military and everywhere else to download that app because the dream would be that the Bob send Larry to Djibouti for his next excellent adventure.
C
Your Valley Toyota dealers well cause every.
A
Time you see those countries there's a couple Toyotas filled with people running around loaded. They love Toyotas. It's a good car. So if we can confuse the Bobs they're like geez, maybe we should send Larry off To Cameroon. Seem to have a quite a following down there. Sorry, Larry. Gotta go to Africa with Max and take some pictures for the weekend and then give money. Pretty great. Anyway, do it. Get everyone involved. Confuse. You all have Bobs, whether you know them or not. Every business has a gaggle of Bobs. They're clueless almost all the time. Everyone I know as I get older has the imposter complex. They're just doing it. And some of them are great at it and some of them aren't. But they're all worried that someone's going to walk in the room and go, that guy's no good at his job. Everyone worries about it. The Bob's are the worst ones. So basically we're going to make them work finally on something that might matter and they're going to overreact and it's going to be hilarious.
B
And the thing about the excellent adventure is Larry still has 72 hours to accomplish.
A
Yeah. He's got to get to Africa and back. Not only that, get all the footage for the. And he's. Yeah. And he's got to Airbnb it somehow. There's. Nobody's paying for anything. Not our station at least. Toyota might help him out. Great stuff. The word is bonus. Download that app wherever you are. Get your family involved. Just like our friend in North Carolina's getting all of Cummins Diesel. He's going to download it on their phones. It's. It's just out of the blue your app promotion got so big. Oh, the bomb's a loser.
B
It.
A
And I'll giggle knowing we'll all giggle knowing they won't. They'll just think we did something special or that their idea was good and that keeps them quiet for at least a year. And that's the goal.
B
Bob's.
A
Shut up. You don't know what you're doing or you'd be doing this. It's 809. It's time for Brady to give you all the news that only Brady knows. While you type in the word bonus in the promo code on our app, it is brought to you by our friends at All Pro shade.

B
Good Wednesday morning to you, Phoenix. Hello world.
A
Hi.
B
Happy national Happy hour Day and Chicken Soup for the Soul day.
A
All right.
B
A couple of basic fun facts. Research from the Ohio State University. Falmer living within 30 miles of an ocean or a gulf may be linked to a longer life by at least one year. The same isn't true among people who live near an island an inland bodies.
A
Or like a lake or pond near.
B
A lake or fresh ocean. Only fresh water.
C
Yeah, fresh water. No good.
A
No good. Brackish. You get six more months.
B
The whitest state in the US Whitest.
A
Utah.
B
Incorrect.
A
Oh, too many Indians. Vermont. Vermont. Yeah.
B
Your Maine, Rhode Island, Rhode island is second.
C
Maine.
A
Maine.
B
Maine is number one. 90.2% cabin masters.
A
So there's 9.8% is not white. Yep, 9.8%.
B
Vermont in West Virginia are tied at 89.1%. And then Hawaii is the least white state. 21.6%.
A
Susan's retiring. She's moving up to Bangor. Can't wait to get to look out. 90% white. That's a lot of white. Even the clan's like, this is no fun.
C
We get a little diversity.
A
Let me talk about uniform.
C
We got nobody to march against.
A
There he is. Go get him. Then we'll be all 100%. That's true. Let him live.
B
When Facebook first launched in 2004, you could only upload one photo. There was no messaging, no notifications, no wall and no status updates.
C
The good old days.
A
What is the rest of Maine like? Why would you live there if you were black? No, I'm not talking about cities. Like what's the, what's the other 9%? Mexicans or some blacks.
B
Native American proximity to Canada.
C
I would say Asian.
A
Asians aren't blowing through all. They're not doing all of Canada.
C
Access to Canada.
A
Yeah, but they got to walk all the way across Canada to get to Maine.
C
I'm just saying, you know, it'd be easy to filter down.
A
Ah, it's not even down really.
B
And they're Nova Scotia. They'd be going the other way. Their access mostly is from the Pacific.
A
Yeah, they're not, they're not crossing all of Canada.
C
Loaded in British Columbia. But I'm just saying.
A
Listen to what you're saying.
C
They're visa laws.
A
They're not going all the way to Maine. They're stopping somewhere in the middle of Canada. Why? All of it's Maine. Nobody's no Chinese goal is Maine. They're not coming in from the Canada side if it means their goal to fly over Europe. Interesting. I wonder what the other 9% is because I know if I was black, I wouldn't live there. What's the point? Got to be like something weird.
C
Even. Gemini. Maine's ethnic makeup is overwhelmingly white.
A
It is 9 out of 10 largest.
C
Minority groups being multiracial people. Followed by black or African American, Hispanic, Asian and American Indian. Alaska native population.
A
So even the natives, like Eskimos. That's called Eskimos. That's an Eskimo. They don't count that. That's as a Canadian, like Native.
C
I suppose two or more races make up 3.9% of the population.
A
Wow.
C
Black or African American, 1.9.
A
You're forced to live there if you're black or you're going to. You got a scholarship to play basketball at Main U. Yeah, but they're getting.
C
The hell out of resident.
A
Yeah. After a couple years, I think six months, you gotta fill it out like you are.
C
Yeah, you're right. Asians, only 1.2%.
A
There's not a lot of Asians crossing all of Canada to get to Maine. You'd stop. That's good. Toronto, Nice. Then they're done.
B
Wow. There's a online list of hobbies that seem to attract deeply pretentious people. Engineer Cycling was on there.
A
Oh, yeah. You get into that.
B
Okay. Meditation.
A
How's Engineer?
B
It says you wouldn't believe how narcissistic people get when they first start the spiritual practice of meditation.
A
Yeah.
B
Disc golf.
A
That's a lot of man buns.
B
It says, calm down, bro. You're throwing a Frisbee in the woods.
A
Yeah.
B
Can't be that serious. Audio files.
A
Some of those that can get annoying.
B
Two types. The ones that are curious for different and multiple sound signatures.
C
The yogi, yoga, Pilates people.
A
Oh, yeah. The ones that get too far into that.
B
That's probably the meditation side. Yeah. Someone put pickleball.
A
Oh, yeah. Yeah. If you're serious about pickleball, you start talking about it. How it's your exercise.
B
Yeah.
C
Nothing funnier than a group of 60 late 60 year olds getting really competitive.
A
It's great for them because their movement.
C
Doesn'T great for them. I'm just saying, socially. Yeah. There's Some fighting going on.
A
Oh, they get. They're competitive. But again, when I hear somebody getting serious about pickleball, or they start talking about, like, the exercise. It's like you're not doing much. Then, like, this is the only thing you do all day.
B
And if you're at the. At different levels, that surprise, like, there, it definitely is, like, clicky.
A
They're only super play.
B
They're not gonna let someone new in until they see skills. What they got, right.
C
Definition of pretentious has a picture of local artist. It does this texter.
A
Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, that's. And they drew it themselves.
B
Yes. Wine tasting is another one.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
CrossFit, cross dressing reading.
A
Yeah. Readers have got. You've lost your way. Readers. I know you like it, but stop pushing it.
B
Luxury watch. Collecting.
A
What? Tripp fits into, like, nine of these.
C
Yeah, he does.
A
Being wealthy, evidently, is pretentious.
C
What I heard from the Brady Report just now is go to Maine for the white bitches.
A
Yeah, there's a lot of white. If you're a black guy and you want some chubby white girls who don't like they can't exercise for four months of the year because of the snow, it might be heaven. If you're. If you're a black guy that can't get laid in Scottsdale, may I suggest Kenny Bunkport? There'll be some thick, albino white women up there.
B
Another one along.
A
I can hear them packing their bags right now.
C
Yeah, they're padded up. A lot of flannel.
A
You know, those hellcats just start up. They're heading to me.
B
Another one along the lines of the wine tasting is charcuterie board aficionados.
A
Anytime you add the word aficionado at the end of what you like, you're a jerk.
B
It says, boss, it's an adult lunchable. Get over yourself and pass the Swiss.
A
It is that, man. Some of it's great, though. I'm not an aficionado, because I always go, what's that cheese? And then somebody will say a word. I don't know. It's a gularia. Like, I don't know what that is. What's on it? Does it have coconut? What? I'm like, okay, I'll eat it. Hol's morning sickness. This is a dry cheese. This is a crumbly cheese. I don't care what's it. I don't even care what it's called.
B
When you like it or it tastes like. That's unbelievable. I was really good. So. And then you go to the store and decide to try it. What? What?
A
You don't know what it is?
B
Trip.
C
Then an aficionado or does he just go and off of their recommendation, give.
A
Me a board trip does both of that. He knows some cheese and then he.
B
Finds the ones he likes.
A
He finds one we like. Like yeah, we knocked that thing stiff. He's got a couple in there that I swear to God it's just. It's heaven. But I don't think he just shows up and cuts it open. It's whole Foods. It can't be that aficionado based.
B
We've got a 46 year old man in Mississippi named Todd Bond who was arrested after multiple porch thefts in Mississippi and Alabama, including one house where they stumbled upon a massive treasure. The house had at least a dozen packages stacked up on the porch. And Todd made repeated trips to the porch from the porch to his car. Got every single one of them. It was caught on the home owner's camera. And they didn't know at first because the suspect was a woman. But Todd was dressed as a woman.
A
Oh, psycho.
B
Long bleached hair, headband, makeup, and he was in a skirt. He was arrested in charge of first degree theft of property. Here's the photo when they arrest him.
A
Oh man, that is. That is a grizzly gum. That is Silence of the lambs.
B
We got another record breaker, John. Wow, a Guinness record. I think this is. This guy's only one. He's from Hungary. Not even begin to pronounce his name. Try it. Says Bulich Cespe.
C
Nailed it.
A
That's not so bad. I'm not gonna question you.
B
He is known as Grasshopper because he played dance dance Revelation Revolution for an unbelievable 144 hours in a row to secure the record. The deal was you dance for an hour, you get a 10 minute break. So he did it basically from on.
A
Beginner level, I hope.
B
October 2030 started. Finished October 29th.
A
That's you gotta get a job.
B
Danced to over 3000 songs, burned over 22000 calories. And he did it in the town of Kashmir, Hungary. And I'm saying that.
A
Well, you're saying it like an idiot too. That's the previous yelling at us record.
B
Was held by cashmere Carrie Schwereki from the U. S. She did it for 138 hours.
A
Oh, she missed by six hours. She got to go back out there.
B
And she was on just dance.
A
Do you try again?
B
No, she's.
A
Yeah, man. Oh man.
C
So which one's better? Just dance or Dance Dance Revolution.
B
I don't know.
C
They still making those?
A
I don't know either. I just know if you go to those video game places, a few of those platforms, somebody. There's an Asian kid on it all the time and they're really good at it.
C
Oh, go to Tokyo. Oh, my God.
A
There's. Of course I'm going to see Asians on the games there.
B
Go to Maine.
A
What in the hell is he talking about? Go to Tokyo. I just said there's an Asian kid. Oh, revolution. Yes, because I just said Asians are good at it here. Imagine that. He's like, you want to see Asians? Tokyo? Of course. Go to Tokyo if you want to see an Asian dance on Dance. That's all you're going to see. By the way, Rico blazed, was just hired as chief of police and it was at Augusta, Maine. It's a pretty impressive. He's up there. He's gonna do some damage.
B
New sheriff.
A
Yes, a new sheriff. Yeah, that's right. There is a new. The new sheriff is near.
B
Brock's Candy just released a limited edition candy cane opener. It's going on sale next Monday. Just go to the caneopener.com.
A
What does that mean?
B
Basically, you put it in a little square rectangle. It looks like a cigarette lighter almost. And the candy cane is in that plastic sleeve. It just opens up, sheds it for you.
A
You've got diabetes so bad. You can't get that little piece of cellophane off a candy cane.
B
It'll run you five bucks.
A
That is pathetic.
B
There's a. A picture of it.
A
If people are struggling to get the candy canes out, you just hold it and push it out the bottom.
B
I never struggled.
A
Oh, you'll eat the plastic. I've seen it.
B
Sometimes you use that as you slide.
A
It down so it doesn't get sticky. Yeah. And you're also opening it wrong. That's crazy. That is some serious huge lazy.
B
I've got two radio videos. First one you're gonna have to pull up. Rich. It's a video that's been released from an incident that happened in September when a light rail train flew into a curve at high speed. Because the guy. Or the pilot or what you call it?
A
The engineer. The train driver.
B
Yeah. Let's just say the light rail.
A
Isn't that what he is?
B
Is in San Francisco. She dozed off briefly at the control center.
A
The train pilot.
B
Yeah.
A
You don't like calling her the engineer?
B
Engineer.
A
Yeah, that's what it was.
C
Qualified.
A
You just don't Give her credit because it's a light rail. She's not running a real train, so. And it's a woman, so why would we give her all sorts of. She said she is out, man. Well, I mean, how much attention do.
B
You have to going 50 miles per hour?
A
She's cooking.
B
Watch where they hit the curve.
A
Oh, it's gonna. It's gonna. All the people inside just get leaned.
B
Then she grabs again.
A
Essentially, the steering wheel. Oh, we're going hot. We're coming into the next turn. Hot. There's a car. Oh, screaming through stop signs.
B
Watch this. Stands up.
A
Did she say it? I'm sorry. Relax, relax, relax. We didn't crash.
B
Relax.
A
Yeah, relax. She's right in San Francisco. They don't understand what she's saying. You have to say, react, Rex. The whole place was Asian. Poor. Those poor people. You really want to see a train with Asians on it? You should try Tokyo Brady. They got them all over the place. I was blown away. Yeah. She's coming in hot. She went out cold.
B
Oh, yeah.
A
Sleepy train. Look at her.
C
She laid on the horn.
B
She knew.
A
She hit the horn.
C
She knew.
A
Oh, she hit the brakes.
B
The old man dropped.
A
They have the double footage of the passengers. The old man was smart. Take a knee.
B
He did. He hit.
A
Get a low base on this. Was he going to the symphony? There's a dude in a tuxedo on the train.
B
And I thought. The lady. I thought, oh, is that a nun on the ground? No, it was her headphones. White.
A
Relax, relax, relax. It wouldn't stop. It wouldn't. It wouldn't stop. Ah, you are asleep. That's good stuff.
B
All right, the next one is one of the best Indian farmers.
A
Oh, no. I got.
C
Yeah, it's one of Brady's. It's a Brady's question.
A
Oh, no. It's gonna be Indians making food, isn't it?
B
Clearing the fields in a record time.
A
Another moment from your. Oh, the algorithm of Brady's disgusting Indian food guys.
B
Well, he's just a farmer.
A
Yeah, that's where the food starts.
C
You don't know if he's.
A
Oh, he's been cut. Oh, no, he's laying down. What is wrong with him? Oh, my God. Oh, he's the worst thing I've ever seen.
B
Kill.
A
Weighs about eight pounds. He's got remarkable abs. He has literally is just skeleton and.
C
Skin bigger schwants than the golden.
A
Oh, sure, sure. He's still living. Look at the size of that pecker. But nose sweatpants. Those Indian sweatpants. And he's he's unrooting some Indian, Indian sugar cane. It's just, I don't know, it's feces based, I'm sure.
C
I don't know.
A
Look at the size of him. He's eight or nine pounds and he's all twisted up and he's laying on the ground doing farming. They couldn't find anyone else better for this job. Look at him, he's doing bundles. He's got loads of them.
C
Comments and people with good hands looking for a handout. What's wrong with you?
A
Yeah, there's people who are looking at their snap benefits. Meanwhile, this guy's a slim, like a Slim Jim with a stick and he's pulling out farming stuff.
C
But so his, his lower half seems to work.
B
He can.
C
Obviously not.
A
His pelvis becomes this pretzel and Brady has access to all of it. Wrists shirtless and he's laying in this hay shirtless.
B
Some of those things look kind of sharp. Like after you cut them.
A
Sure. What does he care? Brady.
C
His wrists are at a 30 degree angle.
A
What is shirt on? Oh, my feet. And his head is completely normal sized and moderately good looking. Yeah.
B
How long that hand is? It's like.
A
Oh my God.
C
Oh, both hands face the wrong.
A
Both hands are crooked out the wrong way. It's like leaving one of those Halloween skeletons in the sun and it starts to melt a little. Oh, he's a disaster. What do you do with your spare time, you freak? Brady. Yeesh. Bonus is the eight o' clock word. Bonus. That's the one you want to hit for the 8 o' clock problem. Bonus how? Well, if he tried to shoot himself and he missed because his hands are pointing so badly, can't even get it aimed at him. I would leap off of anything. I'd elbow crawl to the tallest mountain and just roll down it.
C
It'd take you your lifetime to crawl.
A
I would. You know what? I'm not strong enough to fight the pillow. I just get under one. Oh, this is where at birth those Indian doctors should have just gone, hmm. It didn't make it it. But I can hear it crying. No, no, no, that's the nurses. Your baby's gone.
B
But it kind of proves what you say. A lot of people say, oh, you know this kid, he's no way he's going to make it. And the dude's like 42 now.
A
I don't know.
B
Hoe and fields.
C
What does that you have to define for me? What make it.
A
Yeah, what is it? I've been saying? Yeah, I've Been saying shouldn't make it. I didn't say it's not gonna. Unfortunately, some of them keep going. Nothing good coming out of that.
B
You want to be a farmer, you can do it.
A
No, you can't. He's not a good farmer.
C
Be all you can be.
A
If he was a good farmer, he'd have his arms and legs in the right places. He's a joke farmer. People film him doing it. He's probably not even a farmer. That was probably just an attempt to go Indian viral.
B
Yeah, they put him in there. Just cut down a couple of.
A
That dude just lays around all day. Not eaten. That's for sure. Yuck. Thanks for that, Brady. That's where nightmares are born.
C
Greatest content creator.
A
What if we laid that thing down over there? Would you be the guy with the birth defects? That is rude, is it not? Oh, it's rude. But I guarantee it makes it to America. All right, let's go get him a hole. You know what I mean? Would you like to haul a field? I would do anything for a couple of bucks. Oh, this is interesting. He can become an Internet whore. Anyway, it's 8:30. That is gross. Bonus is the word you want to put in that code section for the 8 o' clock hour. It's perfect. There goes your Brady report. It's 98. It's not weird. It's pretty cool, actually.
C
No membership fees.
A
I have heard enough of this morning sickness. 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. It is. Oh, I gotta do a quick shout out. One of Larry's good friends from growing up here in the city, Tyler Best, it's his birthday and Larry said. Say hi to Tyler. Happy, happy birthday to Tyler Best, one of Larry's buddies. They grew up together over there in central Phoenix. Right over there off Central itself. Tyler and Zach and Larry running.
B
He has an excellent adventure running the.
A
Mean streets of the bridal path and all the garbage. This guy said. Donovan says, man, this show doesn't get the credit it deserves. I've learned so much from you guys. Like today, for instance, Maine is the best state. All right. That's not Donovan. Come on, then. You got this guy. Oh, and then the word for nine o' clock's coming up in a little bit. Don't you. I'm take out eight. Hold on. And we're still trying to get you to download apps. We got the guy In Orlando, the dude in North Carolina, Everybody's getting their apps loaded up at their work and having people who aren't even involved just to confuse our overlords on why we have so much stuff. This, this is Sean Rockefeller. He's back in Dayton, Ohio, and he says ended up back in the hospital there. Sean is. He's one listener of the year once because we've only given it out once and that was last year. And Sean's blind, got some junk going on. He says, I ended up back in the hospital with sepsis after my kidney stones and I spent five days there. But do in doing so, you now have two nurses at the Miami Valley Hospital of Dayton, Ohio, listening to you. They heard you doing a Dick Cheney, George Bush thing. I was out of it. I don't remember it it, but they talked about it and now they listen all the time. Brandon and Tiffany are their names and they've downloaded the app as well. We'll tell them to get the whole hospital to do it. And let's get the whole entire place confused up there in bossland for us on why Dayton, Orlando and North Carolina have erupted with app downloads. Got them all over the city. People also asking me for updates on Brett. Obviously, if you haven't heard, Brett lost his father a couple of days ago after a little bit of a, you know, I wouldn't call it lengthy, but a battle with cancer. And he. He passed, what, two nights ago in his sleep. And this is John. Thank you for keeping us updated with Brett. Brett is text over. Obviously all the well wishes that are coming through, he is grateful for and thanks, you guys. If you want to say something to him, kind be Vesley. B V E S L V E S E L E Y B V E S E L E Y at 98k. I said Vaseli Vasily. I always have to call him Vessel. Vessel. If you want to email him something nice, he's getting those. And he said, you know, obviously, you know, he expected this. I didn't say why. Did I say why? V E S E L Y oh, did I? Okay, well, whatever it is. V e S E L E Y Not L E Y L Y. Damn it. Just find him and, you know, email me and I'll send it to him. Either way. He says, obviously, you know, kind words expected this, but he's still devastated and, you know, not going through things. Guy says, thanks for keeping us updated with Brett. In memory of Brett's father. Yesterday, I disassembled my 1966 Mustang and put the alternator and carburetor in the oven, which is a thing that Brett's dad used to do.
B
He would bake the parts.
A
He would use the oven as storage. And for those who don't know Brett's family story, parents married, had the Brett parents divorced, parents remarried, still have the Brett still have the bread around. I can't take it anymore. Divorced parents get back together a third time.
B
Separate houses, no need for nuptials. Let's just stay together.
A
It's gonna be together. Your side of the house, my side of the house. But one of the reasons that they had struggled, Brett's mother would try to use the oven. And there were car parts in it and cabinets and everything else. The guy would take things apart and put away. It's very funny stories, and I'm sure they're going through that over at Brett's house like crazy. Another thing I wanted to say, our buddy over there at Verlo Mattress, his name is Jonathan and he's a good dude. Ask him about meat. That's all I can tell you. I know that sounds funny, but if you mention Holmberg's morning sickness, he decided, you know, I love you guys so much. Got a Black Friday sale. Just mentioned Hombrex morning sickness. He'll give you 30% off MSRP on all mattress collections. Let's go in there and say, hey, I heard. Heard about you from Holmberg. And he'll give you all sorts. 70% off bed sets for full and queen size. 70%, that's good savings. If you're looking for a bed, this is the place to go. It's give you a free adjustable base V5 collection or higher. $300 in free accessories with V5 collection or higher mattresses. That's huge. So thank you, Jonathan, for saying I love you back. Wow. So hop on Verlo Mattress and get yourself a whole bunch of that stuff. Just for liking us and saying my name. And we love the morning sickness. And he'll go, all right, start cutting prices. Lasting price. Not for everybody. You go in there and you say, love, I love Beth. That's where he gets his money back. He jacks the price up. He tariffs Beth. That's right. That's exactly right. Brady, I'd like to announce that your parenting skills weren't what they. You weren't as good as you thought. And most parents also, everything you're doing is pretty much wrong. New study came out that said teenage binge drinkers after a 25 year study find out they end up making a lot more money later in life than kids who didn't drink. Binge drinking is like a parent's worst nightmare. You got a kid who's drunk can just know that that CEO training essentially when you've got a binge drinker in college, just know that they're not going to live at your house for the rest of their lives. It helps them ease inhibitions. The social lubricant makes them better at social situations at an early age. It makes them fit in because there's more likely more drinkers than there are. Non the most likely explanation to all of the Alcohol is kind of a marker socially and the habit comes with benefits. It also teaches them how to manipulate a situation when they aren't exactly a hundred percent. So when your kid comes home bombed, be a little bit proud. You got one that's probably gonna be all right. Says that to prove that liquor can grease the wheel of fortune, the professors and their colleagues spent the last 18 years monitoring studies and drinking habits of 3,000 Norwegian kids. Kids age 13. They jumped it all the way up to 31 in the timeline. Those who started hitting the sauce hard in their late teens and early 20s boasted much higher levels of education and income than those who practiced abstinence and minimal boozing. The scientists say there's no doubt there's a correlation here. Statistical findings are quite strong and clearly significant. To illustrate his point, Peterson invoked Oxford University's Bullington Club, an all male drinking organization known for very successful alumni. And they're a drinking group for college. Yeah, I'm a Bullington boy. I'm getting worse by the second.
C
I'll speak to that. Because the first time Alex came home, I live with a teetotaler. She didn't do any, didn't drink, smoke anything until she was like almost a senior in college. She was a goody two shoes upon goody two shoes. So when Alex came home drunk the first time. Oh, lost her high school, I didn't tell her about it. And then when she found out about she was mad at me and I'm like, listen, you can't relate to him.
A
Yeah.
C
What he's doing is everything I did in high school.
A
Yeah.
C
I'm like, I don't know if I'm for it, but.
A
Well, she's a teacher, survived it. So she's proven the point that you can't have financial success if you didn't guzzle alcohol in college. She's a teacher.
C
Exactly.
B
Also might be too late for people that are going, you know, because a lot of times the People that start drinking in college, and that's the first time, like, I'm outside of the house.
A
They'Re getting away from their parents and.
B
They fail out of college because.
C
Yeah.
A
Because they can't control it.
C
Yeah.
A
But binge drinking. Experience it on the end. Don't let Brady's recent conversation right there fool you. It's great for your kids. That's all I'm saying.
C
I've got other friends who are. They're the friends that if they have a gathering, they'll allow their kids at 15 or so.
A
Yeah.
C
To have, like a drink or something if they've got. But because they're at home. And what I told Lisa was, as I said, you know, and. And I said this for Alex's sister, too. I'd rather have them know what it feels like.
A
Yeah.
C
Than getting out of the house and not knowing what that feeling is like. And being in a situation where you're uncomfortable.
A
They're saying, also, it's a. It's a way to make kids who are. That they're less afraid of trying something that may not be right down the line.
C
Yeah.
A
Because they know it's wrong. They know it's kind of a thing, but it's sort of also a rite of passage. So they're like, I'm not going to be afraid of this situation. I'm going to tackle it. I'm going to give it a try. So they're willing to try things that everybody says you can't do, you know, and there's lines to that for sure, but that's one where you're like, hey, you're not supposed to do this. So they give it a try, and it gives them a little bit of a, okay, I'm not going to die if I do this. I just need to learn to moderate.
B
And that was, you know, as a parent, one of the fears obviously, is like, okay, well, you can discover it and height. You'll have those decisions to make in high school, like Kirby. But the. The fear is okay. Binge drinking is one thing.
A
Sure.
B
Then they got to make the decision whether or not they get behind the wheel.
A
Oh, yeah.
C
Yeah. And they talk to him about let.
B
Alone driving with your teenager.
A
Never been easier for a teenager to be a binge drinker than today. Uber. Wave. Mo.
B
But then you have simple that are saying certain age, they don't want their kids Uber.
C
Luckily, luckily, with Alex, there's been two times he's called me. Yeah, can you come pick me up?
A
You have to worry only about Uber and Waymo if they're not drinking. So if they're 11 or 12 or 13 or 14, yeah, sure. But if they get 15, 16, you're like, know what? You should start Waymoing when you go out.
B
Not by yourself. Yeah, multiple.
C
I know parents.
A
Waymo's fun. Flying 12 Waymos all day long.
C
I know parents that are have 12 and 13 year olds that tell their kids if they're, if they're in a Waymo. Well, not a Waymo Uber. Don't they wait to facetime me the entire time?
A
Oh, sure, you can get that going.
C
You know, so that they know what's going.
A
But if you're worried about your kid going out in a Uber but they're going out on a Friday night, you're like, I hope it doesn't drive because it might be drinking. You should probably flip flop that thought.
C
Yeah, exactly.
A
And think, well, it's probably drinking. I should allow it in an Uber now. Now.
C
Yep.
A
Also I'd like to say. Oh, it's 9 o'.
B
Clock.
A
I'll give you the 9am Code word. Payline. Payline. P, A, Y, L, I, n, E. Payline. One word is the 9:00am Code for your. Take it.
C
You're familiar with that?
A
Oh, I love the Payline. Pay lines are great. Double top dollar. Anyway, I'd like to say that this show, and I'm taking all the credit for it, would like to tip its cap to the 1055 teachers who have quit their jobs since July. I like to take credit for that. I've been telling public school teach to quit their jobs.
C
County, just Arizona. That would be you.
A
Oh, it would be America. But it's Arizona. Okay. 1055 teachers have quit their jobs since July and they're saying, well, they, we need to raise their wages. It's a, it's a bad paying job. It is not. It's always been a bad paying job. It's never been a lucrative super job. The problem is to give the teachers the power back.
C
Oh yeah.
A
They have been stripped of their power because parents don't question their kids anymore. They question the teacher first. Quit your jobs immediately. It's terrible. And if they raise wages, maybe a few good ones come back. But for the most part you're just going to get the B team back up. They're making more money and it's the same thing's going to happen. Quit your jobs and make the parents have to make their kids be better. The kids that make them quit the.
C
The district has a bunch of bobs.
A
Oh, of course it does.
C
And so the Bobs are throwing a bunch of these new requirements at teachers this year. Lisa says teaching this year has been harder than it's ever been because it's.
A
Because they have to fall in all these parameters to make sure the parents don't lose their minds when their kids are dumb. When your kid comes home with these. Suddenly you're at. The teachers go, what's going on with my kid? And that's your job. They hate your kids. And your kids are. The parents are now on the side of the kid over the teacher. And it used to be the other way. They've never paid teachers any money. It's never been a job you go make money at unless you go to private schools and stuff, and that's what I've encouraged you to do.
C
But like we've said in this show before, too, the IEP has run amok.
A
I don't know what that is.
C
It's individual education program.
A
I don't even know what that is.
C
Where, like, when Alex was struggling with tests, you get an individual education program that says, okay, you can have extra time to take the test. You can go take the test in your own.
A
That's just to keep parents off the teacher's back.
C
Exactly. But try being a teacher when you've got 26 kids that all have an. Have an IEP that you have to address.
A
Yeah, it's your kids. They're the problem.
C
It's. What it is is it's Brady ordering the grilled cheese at McDonald's 26 times.
A
And you're trying to. Special orders.
C
Yes.
B
Yeah.
A
My. My point being. You're listening, and I appreciate that. Quit your jobs. And. And it's not. The number's not high enough. We learned through Covid. Parents don't want their kids in the house. If all the teachers quit, they have to do something about it. Be nicer to the teacher's parents. That's really what they're after. And yeah, yes, pay them more money if you can, but don't go robbing it. That's not a job anybody ever said you were going to be super lucrative in. So if you're doing it for your passion, you'll stay. But they can't stand the kids and the parents. When your kid's getting an F, it's your fault. When your kid's bad grades, your fault. If your kid's being a dick at school, your fault. The teacher might not be able to handle it, but it's still your fault. You got one of those that's it. Quit your jobs today. Public school teachers. I don't want to hear you anymore more about your marches and your nonsense.
C
Can't disagree. My kids are out. Yours are almost. Yours is almost out.
A
There's 4,000 job openings in public education in Arizona. And you're welcome. And I did that. I feel very responsible for that.
C
I think we talked about it last year. You're you. Your constant hammering of this has also made the legislature go. We need to lower the requirements for teaching because we have open spots.
A
Because there's too many open spots.
C
Don't need a certificate. You can go do it until you get the certificate.
A
It make the parents knees speed up the process.
B
Hit the ground to your doctors.
A
Well that's what they're going to do. They're going to speed it up. We just. We want to make the parents hit their knees and apologize. Also many people emailing it saying because there's too many communists teaching the kids also. And that's true. Also. There's a lot of commie teachers. And Toledo's mom Donnie wife has become one. And if you've met the general public's children you would also become a communist and hope for a dim gray future for them.
C
I was mind.
A
Yeah. I've mind and make these kids have no hope. That's what I would do. How's the teacher? I'd rather be a communist than like your kids. Your kids are horrible. Used to be there was one bad one for 20, 30 kids. You're like I gotta manage that kid.
C
Yeah. And you.
A
Now it's the other way. Now there's one good one person.
C
It is easier to send the one bad one out in the hall.
A
I guess send 25 out. And then that little Asian girl that's sitting there doing everything she's told is the only one you like. Mike.
B
And you get sued for sending them out in the hallway.
A
Yeah. Because they trip over each other or something happens or they just isolated and it triggered some response when they were four. Don't want to hear it. Congratulations. I feel personally somewhat responsible for helping the teachers all quit their jobs. A thousand fifty five and that number's going to go up, folks. You should keep doing it. I've never been.
C
I was against that for a long time. But I'm starting to think you're ready.
A
I'm right.
C
Anybody that pays you 35 almost ready for retirement anyway.
A
35 grand and doesn't give you any power like with what they've paid you then just leave. Go get replace that money. At Home Depot. There's plenty of jobs out there. Go get one.
B
That's the downside, I think, of the private school. Right. Because a lot of them, they'll have maybe a 401k. But if you go public and you stay there is a little pension.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
You get nice money.
C
She's got a good retirement system for sure.
A
Sure, she figured that out. They have nice, they have nice stuff like that at Lowe's. He'll be okay, right?
C
Private's not any better. What he's talking about is, is even worse because the parents have more control there.
A
Yeah, but you're getting, you're getting a couple bucks in your pocket and everybody's.
C
Not getting paid any better.
A
And you don't have all those dead beats running around private.
B
You don't. Because that parent that becomes the thorn in the side. They're like, you need to move your child.
A
Kick them out. Yeah, they got a little juice still. That's the thing. They let those, those teachers have some power. I love it. I'm proud of myself. I feel good about that. If there was one industry I'd like to destroy, it would be the public school system. And I'm doing it one person at a time. We got a two man Rock wars today. Unless Toledo wants to participate. I'll participate. You know, kick in for Brett.
B
Sure.
A
All right. You can do it for Brett. We'll keep our own quiet. We'll have a Rock wars coming up in just a little bit. It's 98. It's not weird. It's pretty cool actually. No membership fees. I have heard enough of this morning sickness. 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. It's time sort of for the musical battle of supremacy. Heard each and every weekday. Wednesday, actually, not weekday, Wednesday, right here. But it has kind of been a heavy week. It is time for Rock Wars. It's brought to you by our friends at Mo Money Pond. Short of long term collateral loans from 10 to over 100,000American dollars. No credit needer, top dollar paid. The entire process just taking several minutes. Mo Money, pawn.com, 12th street and Indian School. But with Brett's not being here for the reasons he's not here, which is the loss of his dad. Starting to put together all the weight of the room this week as we've tried to trudge through the thickness that exists, obviously with our friend going through what he's going through. We've decided to do what we did with Brady's dad when you were gone. Your dad passed. We're doing for Toledo's mom. We did our tribute songs for Torp and that. We did one already with the wake up song for Brett, his dad. And we did the My way by Frank Sinatra. Tears. Nothing but tears flowing. And now it's time to boost our buddy Brett up and give him a rock horse for just him. It's not fair to take a win away or a loss away from Brett. He needs to fight fairly. So today we suspend all competition to give Brett a moment. It's his favorite song. We'll go with a. A song we all agreed on, that Brett would make him feel a little better this morning. That would be today's topic. And clearly that would be Suicidal Tendencies. The guy can't get enough of him. And it's his go to his lean in and that's not the right song. He's got the wrong one in there. Oh, where'd he go?
B
Maybe we don't have it in the.
A
Nope. You can't bring me down, Toledo. He keeps loading up every song except that one. They might have to do it on his computer. But that's one we want. With you can't bring me down by Suicidal Tendencies will be the song we've chosen for our little buddy Brett. We're thinking about you. We know he's going through a lot, and seeing the words, I'm devastated in a text from Brett just doesn't feel right. So let's try to bring him back up. It's Suicidal tendencies for our guy Brett. Today's winner in Rock Wars. We'll give him a win on top of it. You can't bring me down. It's 98K upd. There we go. For our buddy Brett. Going through all the nonsense and misery that comes with just being alive, but he's gonna get through it all, and we're gonna be right there next to him. So that's for Brett. Rock wars winner today is Brett Vesley. Cause how do you call a long lost and can't even be here? He's dealt with enough. The meantime, I've been introduced to a blues Instagram page that's taking it. Originally started as baby shark blues. The song Baby Shark, they made a blues song. And I listened to Dirty Diana. Here's the Scorpions still loving you and I'm starting to embrace AI to the point where I think I like it better than us. Listen to Them still loving you by the score Beats is the chorus person. It's amazing day. It's the only way I can tolerate the Scorpions in a long period of time. Fight, bab, fight to win back your love again. I will, will be there. I will be there. It's only. This is the worst AI will ever be. It's going to get better tomorrow. Better than that the next day. Always going to keep getting better.
B
But you're thinking AI will punch up this song even better.
A
No, I'm saying that this is the best technology we have today of AI Tomorrow it will be better the day after. I can't predict how much better it's going to do with stuff like this. This is its first years. What's it gonna be like in a couple years with this stuff? And this blows my mind. Your pride has built a wall so strong that I can't get through. Come on. Is there really no chance to start once again? That's phenomenal. That is so good.
B
And the fact that. That the. It stays at its place that people can. You can do the AI songs without having to pay the royalties or.
A
Well, I don't know about that because, I mean, it is.
B
I know it's lyrics are written and it's still up in the.
A
Well, I mean, if you sold that or tried to sell. You'd have to. Well, you have to. You'd have to pay the lyricist at the least. It's because it's. The lyrics are still the same.
B
Because there's another. There's a company called 11 Labs and you can use Michael Kane on anything you want.
A
Well, because voices can't be trademarked. They tried that with me years ago at asu. They tried to get me to do a voice recognition thing thing for their. They had some security program they wanted to do and I was allowed to read all these things and sell them to stuff as Regis Philbin and Morgan Freeman and things like that to try to unlock codes. And they sold it as a deal. But you. Because you can't technically with. You do have to say it's a celebrity voice impersonated thing. But you can't copyright that.
B
This one.
C
And 11 labs is what we use to do.
A
Yeah.
C
And everything. That's what we used.
B
So Matthew McConaughey is an investor in the company. Company. But you set up a deal. You hammer out a deal, and then 11 labs use the voice.
A
Right.
B
Cloning technology to deliver the voice. So technically, Michael Caine still will get.
A
He's getting it.
C
If he signed that deal. Matthew McConaughey.
A
He's getting a royalty for them to use his name.
C
Yeah.
A
Because I could go on there and say, She's 16 years old, and I'll just talk like this for a little.
C
While and they'll just pay you a one off.
A
And they would pay me a one off, but they'd be like, who's that supposed to be? I don't know. Know. Some guy I knew in high school.
C
Celebrity voice in person.
A
You don't even have to say that. As long as you're not saying, I'm Michael Kane, you can do whatever you want. You can't. I could. I. What if I sound just like him accidentally? Am I going to get sued? You can't. You can't trademark a voice.
B
Other voices currently you can use right now are Art Garfunkelli, Dale Hell, John Wayne.
A
Yeah.
B
Mark Twain.
A
Yeah. It's just. You can put your own in there, so long as it's not being sold. But if you sold something like that, it's. It's amazing. Again, the tech. We are at the worst it will ever be today because tomorrow it's going to get a little better. It's just like my meta glasses. I have those and they're marvelous. Is the worst technology those will ever be. The next generation will be better and better and they're not going to get worse.
C
That's what you envision Spotify becoming?
A
Yeah.
C
Hey, Spotify, These are the bands that I like from the 80s. Make them all soul singers.
A
The things that's scary is that you. You can do it with songs. Just have. Have. Eventually it'll be like, I want to hear stuff like this. And they'll make up new songs. It'll all be brand new. They're already doing it, but they're not very good yet. Right. Soon that will be better. What? It's remarkable. And I watched Pluribus last night, so my brain's in a different place with how we utilize AI and yeah, community. He's not wrong. It's 9:37. You can't bring me down. For our friend Brett. And again, thanks to everybody who's fired off. A nice message for Brett. While he deals with all of his family issues that are going on right now, we're thinking about him and Mathia and the rest of the family there. Suicidal Brett, you're the big winner today. It's 98.
B
Hey.
A
It's not weird.
C
It's pretty cool, actually.
A
No membership fee. I have heard enough of this for you. P.D. hornberg's morning sickness. You've been deceived by an agent of Satan himself. He's evil. Sitting right here. Come on. No, no, he's not evil. He's just a bit rude. There you go. I like that one. Limp Bizkit. John Gordon, sitting across there, wonders if Limp BizKit is using AI to write their songs now, because they're back. It's an interesting point. Bands that just kind of show up again after toiling around with nothing, and then they're like, hey, that's pretty good. Where'd that come from? And making love to Morgan Wallen is something that I would put in an AI thing and go write a song about this. This Limp Bizkit style. And it would do it. And only Limp Biscuit would be like, we're gonna sing it. We're gonna do it. John makes a great point. It's all collapsing. God damn it. Watching Pluribus screwed me up. I can't do this to myself. Everything's an algorithm. Everything's all messed up, and I'm getting an algorithm. Now, about Jelking. Do you know about joking? I looked into it one time.
B
I do not.
A
All right, one time I looked at this. Jelqing, J, E, L, Q. And Jelqing is where you basically kind of treat your penis like one of those things that puts frosting on a cake. Squeeze from the bottom, work your way to the top, the cone. And there's a penis influencer that's real. He's on Instagram, and he's introduced Jelqing to people and showed the results that he grew, like, an inch by Jelking. So you grip kind of hard on the bottom and then work your way up. And so by. By doing that, you tear the fibers of any sort of. You stretch them out, the meat. But basically, it's. You know, your penis is an organ. It's not a muscle. So they're like, this can't work.
B
Is.
A
You're still micro tearing the fibers around it, and they'll come back bigger and stronger, just like anything else in your body if you rip it and rebuild it. So it's basically this. It's Jelking. So I looked at it once this morning. I have, like, nine different articles on. On Yahoo and my news feeds about joking. I'm like, all right, I clicked on this once. You can't give me joking again. But I'll let you know how it's going, because right now it just hurts.
B
Well, it's like. I guess it's similar to the guys that would hang weights.
A
Oh, sure. That makes sense, though, that you're just tugging it down to the earth, but this thing is supposed to, like, tear the fire and then it comes back a little bit more like. It's like dick peptides your hand. You're like, oh.
B
Or.
A
And I'm trying. I. I am. Look, I. I read it and I'm like, I wonder if that's. And it just flat out hurts. I'm not gonna lie to you. You take the base and you give it a good squeeze and you kind of start to move it. Yeah, it's. It's. We walk away like you just got Reiki in a bad spot. But I'll let you know. I'm not going to post pictures or anything, but if it starts flopping around a little harder, my pants start feeling funny. I'll let you.
B
Which was worse, joking or the penis pump?
A
Penis pump was really bad for a minute because I. Something happened to the air release, so I was trapped and I had to manage to get my finger in there to make the air come out. Because if that air release doesn't work, you're just. It's just.
B
Isn't that like, cutting it off, air joking in a way?
A
No, because it's one solid unit of. It's. I mean, it's a similar process of swelling it and breaking it. You do. Look, I've used the penis enlarger for a joke. And then I walked away going, that was no joke, at least for the day. The thing was massive. When I was. When I popped that glass tube off of there, it was as big as the tube. It was crazy. And then a few days later, he was, like, sitting there panting with his hands on his knees. What'd you do that for? Like, it was. It was. The recovery wasn't any fun at all, but it worked for the day anyway. I digress. It's 9:54. We'll have an entertainment drill in just a little bit. We'll explain joking as the time ticks by. We wait over the holiday break, though. Forget it. I'm gonna come back a beast. Holmberg's morning sickness. All right, let's go. It's time for the entertainment drill. And we can run. A guy says, john, you're so emotional about Brett. Of course it's an emotional thing. Brett's dad was, you know, healthy as a horse a couple months ago. It's very, very tough time. So it is an emotional time. People feeling bad. Don't feel bad about me. I'm. I'm okay. And again, if you want to send a nice message to Brett B. Vesley. V E S V E S E L Y.
B
Go.
A
That's right. V E S E L Y. And you can email him and say something nice. A lot of you are. He's very appreciative. It's 10:01. It's time for the entertainment drill and it's brought to you by our friends@reactdefense.com that's the home of tactical black self defense training. Their 25th anniversary is coming up. I've been telling you about their deal. 89 bucks for one month of training. You look at their schedule and said, I'm going to do that one and that one and that one and that one. You'll get your money's worth.
C
Four.
A
Sure. Let's say you do three classes a week for four weeks of the month. That's 12 classes. I'm pretty sure you can do the math on that faster than I can. But that is cheap right there. That is inexpensive. If you just did three classes, if you did more than that, you're getting into like five and four dollars a class. Come on, get all over this thing and you guys will be thrilled with what you get. You get results pretty fast. You're going to get mental results right away. You'll hop on this thing immediately and it is a crawl, walk, run. The people in the classes aren't there to show you, show you up. They're there to help you. You up and you are becoming a sheepdog along with them. The more of those we have, the less wolves have a chance because there are less sheep for them to attack. Don't be a victim. Learn how you are actually presenting yourself as one and not even realizing you're doing it. They'll show you that right away. React defense dot com. That's the home Tactical Black Brady. Entertain me.
B
Little FYI, I know you're wondering what Pope Leo's four favorite movies are.
A
I would imagine Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Uncle Buck, Brewster's Millions and let's see, Eight Men Out.
B
Okay, not bad. It's Omen one through three.
A
He likes the almond that does shine.
B
Rosemary's Baby.
A
No, I went Chicago centric.
B
It's a Wonderful Life, the Sound of Music, Ordinary People and Life is Beautiful. That's the latest one in 1997.
A
The other, life is Beautiful, is a phenomenal movie. I don't know why people think It's a Wonderful Life as I've expressed that to you. It's about, I know, paranoid schizophrenic, bipolar.
B
Man, tried to ruin it for my mom.
A
It isn't tried to ruin it, it just tried to show her what she was actually watching. Watching a delusional schizophrenic.
B
Right. It's basically telling her what it was.
A
Yeah, delusion grandeur who believes that if he wasn't alive the world would be worse off, which is what they put you in nut houses for.
B
The other religious story is Jenna Jameson now is a Christian. Oh, and her, she's gone from the adult film career to now being sharing Jesus.
A
Now she's a pious jerk who tells you that everything that she made her name and was bad and you shouldn't do anything for fun.
B
But that is most recent because in 2015 she converted to Judaism.
A
Oh, she was a Jew.
B
She was in a, a relationship with an Israeli businessman, Lior bitten.
A
So whoever's dicking her, she believes in his way. She's dating a Catholic or a Christian.
B
Yeah, I don't know if she's in a, you know, relationship. The only one, it could be just with Jesus Christ.
A
Maybe Jesus. Jesus finally got her. Yeah, yeah, well everybody was going to get her eventually.
B
She did go through, you know, addiction with her battle with alcohol, drugs.
A
She's been through a lot. I have a family member that loved everything about their drug induced party in ways and I mean had what seems to be the time of her life. Studio 54. The 80s were a blur. The 70s were even blurrier. When she talks about it it's like oh, one time I was dancing with Brooke Shields and Michael Jackson. It was just this crazy night. God bless. Don't do anything I did. I'm like what you, what you did? Sounds awesome. What were you doing? Oh, we were doing coke off of Bubbles the Monkey. I'm like ahaha, don't try that, it's horrible. Like what? Your life sounded great. It used to be. Now it's so much better with Jesus. You don't seem as happy. You don't tell the stories of your like last weekend like you do the days of Studio 54. Like she beams, lights up. Oh, listen to this great tale I have of when I was a bad person. And they're like, what'd you do last weekend? We went to church and hung out at some picnic. Doesn't sound half as fun as what you were doing.
B
Picnic?
A
You said, well that maybe that's why.
B
You like Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney or became fast friends on the set of Euphoria. But that honeymoon period looks like it's over.
A
They hate each other.
B
Evidently over political differences.
A
Sydney's a righty, isn't she? She's coming out kind of heavy Trump, I think.
B
Kind of. And Zendaya is the other way. But after the American Eagle jeans ad, she was outed as a registered Republican. And a few months ago, attendees of her mother's 60th birthday party were wearing red hats and blue Live Matter shirts. So a source said they can't be friends. Die is refusing to do the press for the new, the latest season of euphoria.
A
Not with. Not with her. Not with her and her views that aren't exactly in line with what yours are. And both of them, if you can't be grown up enough to talk to somebody like that, you're a jerk. By the way, William has just emailed and says, do Gene Simmons turning Jenna Jameson into a Jew. What's wrong with you people? This is exactly how that would sound, though, if you were interested. Hello, I'm Gene Simmons from Kiss and. Oh, you're a Jew now? Oh, no, you're not. Oh, you're a Jew now? Oh, I've taken it out. You've got Jew in you now. You don't.
B
Figure skating legend Scott Hamilton is putting a party together on November 23rd. It's a benefit cancer fundraiser.
A
He's been through it a couple times.
B
And only he could reunite a 70s and 80s super group. You ready for this? Members of Journey, REO, Speedwagon, Lover Boy.
A
Wait, he's building a super group?
B
Kansas, Chicago, all these bands that night.
A
But they're not showing up. Members of the members, right? Yeah, those bands are not going to be there. I fell for this once before, you.
B
Know, Kevin Cronus, Big Boys, you get some good ones.
A
I'm sure some names in there. But don't fall for this because they don't know any songs. Ricky Rackman told me I was going to go see Rat, Faster Pussycat, Cinderella, and someone else over at after the gold rush for $9 and it was going to charity. Well, it was a member of each band and none of them had ever played together before. They got through half of Suffragette City when they realized we don't know any songs.
B
Evidently they're going to do, you know, an All Star Jam. And then some will play separately. Like Mike Reno from Lover Boy is performing with his wife, Catherine St. Germain. And there's so many new members of Chicago.
A
I'd rather go to church with Jenna Jameson.
B
But John Elefante, formerly of Kansas, he's doing some solo.
A
Did he start the restaurant over there at Fashion Square Elefante.
B
Might be.
A
I don't think so.
B
I. I think. Let me confirm it.
A
I don't just.
B
No, he did not.
A
Ceiling tiles suggest. Ask again later.
B
That's my Gemini. The ceiling tiles.
A
Yeah, it's pretty good stuff.
B
Liam Gallagher from Oasis says the reunion tour saved his life because there's about time that I sorted my thoughts, the bad thoughts, and got my head clear. Sure, I stopped drinking, smoking and snorting and they were sacrifices that needed to be done.
A
But you had a lot of fun going into it. I'm not saying it's good. I'm just saying I don't like these people that turn their lives around and then tell everybody else how wrong they are for taking that path. I know it's not a good path. Everybody who does it knows.
B
And I'm sure that's going to go over really well with their gigs in South America. Yeah. Stop doing cocaine. They might not make it out of there. Finally, Joe Walsh is having a street renamed in his honor. His hometown of Witcha, Kansas.
A
Joe Walsh Boulevard. Fast Lane Joe Walsh Way. Let's call it Joe Walsh Way, Rocky Mountain way. They wouldn't do that in Witchita. Well, he deserves it. He's done so much. He's hard to watch. Looks like if Bill Maher was a. Was a trying to become Joe Walsh. Like he looks like a guy in makeup being Joe Walsh and his tongue doesn't work. It's hard to watch Joe Wash. Have you seen that John when he, when he talks?
B
Cuz he had a. He had a list. Tongue sticks out kind of originally.
A
Yeah, he's got a little speech thing, but it hangs in the middle of his mouth. It's kind of gross. Anyway, still can name a street after him. And I'm glad that Jenna and Jesus are together. I've been waiting for that one. I'm going to Google search that on pornhub later today. I bet you AI will build that for me. Jenna finds Christ. Oh, oh, I am going to do that.
B
Joe Walsh Street. It's. What's with your mouth?
A
Yeah, a dangling tongue. Boulevard Larry's coming up next. He's got himself the glorious, excellent adventure money. It's sitting in your hands. He and Valley Toyota dealers are trying to give you three grand. He'll tell you how just moments as we continue to buy your love for ratings. You gotta do something this Christmas. Music's about to start and that kicks our ass every year. It's nonsense, but Larry will help you. Money will fix that. Larry's gonna try to give it to you. In the meantime, you guys have yourselves a hell of a Wednesday. And we'll see you tomorrow right here on the morning Sickness. Hello.
C
It's not weird. It's pretty cool, actually.
A
No membership fee. I have heard enough of this.
Date: November 12, 2025
Host: John Holmberg
Co-hosts: Brady Bogen, Big Dick Toledo
Absent: Brett Vesely (family loss)
Theme: A blend of morbid humor, personal nostalgia, chaotic banter, and sharp-tongued commentary on everything from inheritance cleaning to survivor guilt, the pitfalls of hoarding—plus culture, news, and AI paranoia, all filtered through Holmberg’s signature irreverence.
Main Purpose:
The show freely traverses listener-submitted oddities, personal stories—especially about clearing out a relative's “pod” after death—parenting, legacy, unsettling neighbor childhood flashbacks, American survivalism, small-town weirdness, and AI’s encroaching influence. The team dives into history, dark comedy, and brutal honesty, keeping the tone both biting and hilarious.
Brady discusses inheriting a storage “pod” packed with someone else’s tax returns, old paperwork, mystery keys, and random personal artifacts.
The pain of sorting through lifetimes of paperwork (tax returns, business records), arguments about hoarding, and the hope for “secret money.”
One set of mystery keys lead to a search for safety deposit boxes in Denver.
Quote:
“You’re trying to find the secret money. I see what’s going on.” (John, 04:54)
Discussion of cash-hoarding relatives, safes that contain nothing, and the futility of sifting for treasure.
Cool Find: Glass-blown art, specifically a $900 hand-crafted bong and other unique glass pieces from an aunt renowned for kiln/manufacturing glass-blowing ovens (Denver Glass).
Quote:
“It’s a glass-blown bong…like a vine growing with a gecko. Very Colorado.” (Brady, 09:41)
John and Brady riff on their parents’ stashes of guns and “what happens when the apocalypse comes.”
Stories of older dads prepping for civil war in Texas Hill Country.
John laments the burden of offloading an arsenal and not knowing what's valuable.
Quote:
“Don’t make your death my job!” (John, 18:15)
Brady’s family has knives taken off dead German and Japanese soldiers; John wonders if some kid in Germany treasures American dog tags.
Dark humor kicks in about the macabre practice of collecting enemy “trophies.”
Memorable Line:
“Just dawned on me—do you think in Germany there’s a kid whose grandpa has American trophies?...it pissed me off immediately.” (John, 24:08)
Brady’s neighborhood story: Bob Ray, WWII vet, naked window-dweller, gun-toting cat hater, eccentric to the point of horror.
The crew mercilessly deconstructs the “let Bob be Bob” attitude:
Quotes:
“There’s 100 knives by a Lincoln-age blade. That’s good. I like that.” (Brady, 22:14)
“If that happened in your neighborhood, wouldn’t it be cause for concern?” (John to Brady, 32:27)
“But we had sugar cereal.” (Brady, 36:30)
Reflection on small town denial and generational blind spots, with John pressing Brady on why no one ever addressed Bob’s PTSD and antisocial behavior.
Key Exchange:
Vince Gilligan’s “Pluribus” on Apple TV+ is dissected as a cautionary AI hive-mind allegory.
Philosophical debate: Would you “join the we” if AI promised peace but erased individuality?
Quote:
“Maybe we should all be hive-mind. It’d be awesome! …But there’s no fighting. Everything’s peaceful. There’s no reason to fight.” (John, 85:20)
Nostalgia for communal TV experiences (“Remember talking about Sopranos every Monday?”); lament over binge culture fragmenting discussions.
Comparison to the rise of Tesla, Waymo, AI music, and “the end of creativity”—are we better off?
Macabre coverage of the Golden State Killer’s capture, focusing (with gleeful irreverence) on his “micro-penis” as crucial evidence.
Gallows humor swings wildly from sexual trauma kits to the unlikelihood of certain kinds of rape, to satirical debates about "if you had to be raped, would you want the guy with the pinky-dick?"
Notable Quotes: “That's a terrible sign—if they can't even photograph the evidence…” (John, 60:31) “Rape isn’t about the act of lovemaking…it’s about the power involved.” (John, 77:28)
Extended bit: New study claims teenage binge drinkers earn more as adults (John: “When your kid comes home bombed, be a little proud”).
John doubles down on telling teachers to quit, blaming helicopter parents and lack of discipline for the spiraling education system.
Ongoing campaign to “destroy public school by attrition,” celebrating the record of 1055 teachers quitting in Arizona since July.
Key Quote:
“Quit your jobs today, public school teachers…I feel personally somewhat responsible for helping the teachers all quit their jobs.” (John, 141:12)
On inheritance pods:
“Just burn it slowly in a field.” (John, 03:33)
On apocalypse prepping:
“Don’t make your death my job!” (John, 18:15)
“When the Civil War starts, that’s where we fight back!” (John quoting his dad’s friend, 19:05)
On small-town denial:
“Everybody knew but the Bogans, who would not accept that anything’s bad.” (John, 33:46)
On binge drinking and success:
“When your kid comes home bombed, be a little proud.” (John, paraphrased, 131:40)
On education:
“If there’s one industry I’d like to destroy, it’s the public school system.” (John, 142:09)
On AI music:
“This is the worst AI will ever be. Tomorrow, it’ll be better. The next day—better.” (John, 147:27)
This episode—orbits the messiness of legacy, the absurdity of blind nostalgia, American survivalist myths, and generational weirdness, with jokes about their own mortality and those of their listeners. It’s equal parts catharsis and chaos: a master class in gallows humor and the value of asking uncomfortable questions—if only to keep things real. All set to a relentless onslaught of the bizarre, offensive, and uproariously funny.

Final Thought:
Holmberg’s Morning Sickness remains a gloriously profane antidote to sanitized talk radio: messy, sometimes shocking, occasionally profound—radio for realists, malcontents, and the happily jaded.
