There you go. Thank you. Shinedown. That's the sound of madness. So much going on here. We got Palladio next week starting on Monday. That should be fun. It always is fun. It's, it's. It's daunting to stare it in the eyes, but it always is fun. Joe Coy is going to be here on Saturday. And you know, we were great friends with Joe Coy for a long time, and then we told him, you're going to get too big and you're not going to come in here anymore. And he goes, that'll never happen. And that's exactly what happened. And I'm proud that it happened. That's a good thing. But evidently there's still some tickets for sale. Last time he played down at the arena, it sold out really fast. This time there's a couple tickets available still. So Joe Coy might join us this week. And I'm like, ah, I told you, I'd See you on the way down, too. I love Joe. Tried to text him the other day with one of the four numbers I've had for Joe Coy over the years. And he changes his phone number, like, every year. I. I simply. I didn't either. Didn't get a response or. None of them are his numbers anymore. And that I'm happy for, too. He. He ended up banging Chelsea Handler for a little while and got super duper famous for. He still is, but, like, super banging. Like, he was everywhere. He hosted the damn Golden Globes, done.
E
A couple of movies.
D
Yeah. There he was texting me at my house before all this, asking me what I thought of his special. And now he doesn't need me. And I like that. But pretty soon, you know what? I might ask him on Thursday if he'll be part of our happy ending show. Cause he needs some work. He owes. He. He does. Oh, I feel you're right, Brett, but we got that going, too. And the tickets went fast for the Happy Endings Homeburg After Dark show. Not much left on that one. So if you guys want to go, it's December 12th, starts at 9:45. Brett does the videos. We have, like, a recap of the year, bring out our special guests. And in the past, it's been. It's been a really fun show. We got. We all get drunk, we dick around. We have a live show for an hour and a half, and then we get the hell out of there and drink some more with you guys. The third annual Homeburg After Dark. Awesome stuff. Happy endings. Still, it's a last big live event we do of the year, and you buy it over there@98kupd.com 20 bucks for a regular ticket, 29.90 or 29.79 for reserve seating. VIP stuff that already sold out, so you might be able to straggle a couple in there. But right now, the VIPs are gone, and all the proceeds go to the Arizona Humane Society. And we want to thank Lerner and Row and my friend Dr. Fixler from Happy Endings Euthanasia for kicking in a donation already for the Humane Society. So we're. We're already doing well with that one, so. Didn't get enough. We don't have enough with the Humane Society this year because they took our golf tournament away. The lawyers ruined that. And then I'm proud to announce this, too, right in the face of every manager in radio. That may ruin this. I had a meeting yesterday, and I'm not going to guarantee it, Brady, but I've introduced certain people to other people. We're gonna have that golf tournament again next year. I might have to pay for it, but that basically means nobody here is going to be able to sell it but me. So I'll make all the money, too, and then give that money to the charity the proper way. We're gonna have that golf tournament whether KUPD is involved or not, because the lawyers ruined everything. Trust me. Screw the bombs. They didn't stand up for it. They didn't fight. We'll get it back. Tripp's been fighting for us, too. We'll get that thing. But I had a nice meeting yesterday. I'm like, it looks pretty good that we can do this. We found a couple side doors. Get around the morons. It's not official yet, but I really enjoyed my meeting. And I have no, particularly not that hard. Larry's gonna come in and go, why did you do that? I'm like, larry, trust me. I don't care. So it doesn't matter anymore what they think. It was a good meeting, though. I'm like, oh, we can do this. We can make this happen. The best part of the meeting is when the guy on the other line goes, worst case scenario, we'll just do it ourselves. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll just cut your guys out. Yeah, yeah. And then he would throw the golf tournament, and I would, quote quoty fingers host it. We would just do everything the same. And then they'll have meetings going, how come our revenue is down? I don't know. John made $300,000 for a charity in a weekend. You guys didn't want to be part of that Anyway, we'll try that. So that's going to be good, too. And then the better thing is also for charity, Another great thing. And again, the emails that I was going back and forth with yesterday, inevitable. But we do that thing for military assistance mission, and it's happening again, and you guys have already kicked in pretty nice. I got to get on there and do some stuff today. You basically shop for the troops, and that's how we do this. It's a. It is a great deal. Fitz is way behind this thing. He's all over. He's on the board for the military assistance mission, ma'.
E
Am.
D
And we do the holiday giving thing. So they call it Holmberg helps, but it has nothing to do with me. It's all military assistance mission. Lerner and Row Amco, we got together with them the military assistance mission. And we provide military parents a chance to shop for their kids this holiday season. And the donations are being accepted through the Amazon wish list@98kupd.com it's been a weird year for them. And I've told you this before, I said it yesterday. I too was skeptical of why we needed to shop for troops, families, why do we need to do this? They've got jobs, they've got. And then you see it in action. You're like, holy smokes. And you hear the stories. These people need this help. It is. You are not. Especially the National Guard guys who get pulled away from a job sometimes and it just, they get. Financially, it gets a little bit weird sometimes for those low level military guys and they have a kid and whatever else, for whatever reason, they're struggling. But they're still troops. And we support the troops. We say we do. You should never argue this because when you go to the event and see these people shopping, you realize, oh my God, if we're really going to support the troops, it's more than just standing up at a baseball game and saying, hey, thanks. It's about doing stuff like this. It's going to be awesome. We're going to do the big shopping event December 20th at the Franciscan Renewal Center. That's that place right off of Lincoln. Yeah. Yep. Okay. That's huge.
E
Nice.
D
So it's not like the normal spot.
A
That we've always been at.
D
Yeah, it's really big. I know that. You go, it's over by El Charo.
E
They expanded it. Yeah.
D
Okay, so we'll do that. And special thanks again to learner and Row and Wayne and Amco for helping us out. You can check it all out@98kp.com all that information sits right in front of you right there. That's glorious. And that's just some housekeeping we had to do about all the things that are going on here. Trying to help out and get it together. Also just got an email from a guy that said, John, I was listening to you. He's about an hour behind about the visit Rwanda thing we were talking about earlier. The Los Angeles Clippers have visit Rwanda on their jerseys. And he said, and you talked about the genocide of Christians in Rwanda 30 years ago and how it's a little early to start visiting Rwanda, still in Uganda, their neighbor. So picture New Mexico. They're doing a full on Christian genocide slaughter there. And that's just, you know, that would be like if Las Cruces was killing Mormons. And we're like, why don't you come on over Here to Phoenix. Be like, I'm not. I'm a go. That's too close. And we, in the last 30 years, have killed a bunch of Mormons, too.
C
It's.
D
You still have too many people. Somebody emailed and said, why wouldn't you be able to go to Germany in the 70s? I'm like, 70s is right when you were starting to be allowed to again. You have to realize in the 50s and 60s, the ideas of the Germans hadn't left yet. So, yeah, they lost the war, but there were still a healthy amount of them that were walking around going, you know, we were on the right track. Yeah. Like, you have to age those ideas out. I always go back to what my incredibly smart international friend Thomas Wells said worst day in human history was when that Berlin Wall fell. Like, what? Yeah. You divided all the people that liked old Germany and you put them back. Like, hey, I never thought of any. They didn't just show up. They showed up with their ideas and they brought them to Germany and it ruined it. Like, I guess you're kind of right. And it's our complaint about Californians moving here. Sure, they move here fine. But keep your ideas there. The reason you left can't come with you. You can't leave one place that got financially out of control to where you don't want to live there anymore. Move to Austin, Texas, and then start telling Austin how things worked out so much better where you left. If you left a place, it's because there was a better place in front of you. Don't bring your ideas. Thomas brought that. That's brilliant. So clippers still your visit. Rwanda thing? There's a genocide next door. That's a good album name, but I kind of avoid those travel places. When your neighbor has a genocide and you had one, too, yours is dry. Theirs is very active too soon.
E
But maybe you look at it this way. Is there a Viking Cruise available in that area? Whether or not.
D
You know what one I'd go on instead? Carnival? No, Disney. I just get on that little thing and go through there. Jungle cruising. I don't even know what Rwanda and Uganda look like. Can't be too different than that guy shooting hippos with a cap gun. Well, you know what it is for safety. Here's another thing that's great, Brady. You have a hearing aid because you have a little hearing loss. I've been to a ear doctor in the last few years, and wearing headphones our whole entire existence does no good for your ears. It's bad. And I think we're going to have a future of people with hearing problems because of earbuds and all the stuff we do with our ears. So I've gone and he's like, yeah, you've got low level loss. It's age related, but also what you do. And I've abused my ears with rock concerts and actually being on stage with things in my ears that are blowing up and lots of loud noises and being in bands and things like that they have just discovered. And it makes the phrase hard of hearing. Hilarious that Viagra actually cures low level deafness.
E
Gulp.
D
Yeah, so you can actually sit and listen. You know, eventually on enough Viagra, you're going to sit and think to yourself, what's that noise you're going to hear? That's my dick getting hard. I can hear it now. So you'll have both things cured. Your impotence and your hearing loss will be. It's not going to cure deafness, but for low level stuff, maybe hearing early hearing aids, you know, when you start hearing, when somebody's talking, you're like, they're making words, but none of them makes sense. Viagra evidently can fix that. So if you're hard of hearing, ha ha ha.
E
You're now hard on hearing.
D
Yeah, hard on hearing. They say that Viagra could eventually, if they can tap into what it's doing to hearing, they think it can reverse deafness.
A
Unless your wife's talking.
D
It doesn't work for that though, right?
E
Yeah.
D
Because that's also going to kill your boner.
A
Right?
D
Right. So she's, she's the anti Viagra. Ironically, the thing you take it to.
A
Nail.
D
Is the thing that causes the impotence in the first place. With the rolls and the cheese and the stuff going on and the smells and the. That's the Jim Jeffries thing. He said, I don't think Viagra is necessary. He goes, I think the cure for impotence is a young woman. He goes, because you never hear of that. I never had a problem with boners when I was young. It only happened when I got older. I started having sex with a young girl again and it was back. So I think they cure it. Never see an old man talk about his issues when he's dating someone who's like 40 years younger than me. It's gross, but still, anyway, yeah, it keeps you, keeps you up. And now the hearing of hardness can go away. And I think that's pretty cool.
E
It's amazing.
D
They can cure deafness with boner pills.
E
It's a two for one.
D
Here's the other thing about that. How bad did they swing and miss on what they were working on with Viagra? Because wasn't it a blood pressure pill? Yeah, they don't even use it for that. And they didn't change a thing. They're like, what does this work on his blood pressure? No. Dude's heart is a rock. And he's here. He's like a bat in there.
E
But it lowered his blood pressure, right?
D
I don't know what it did. It made him happy. He just seems comfortable again. Your blood pressure goes up because you can't get a hard on. That's a lot of stress. You start walking around getting wood anytime you want just because the pill. Now you can hear. And it is ironic, though. Brett's right. The thing that kills boners the most is woman talking. So maybe we can have like a shut off valve for your Viagra. You know, it's a slow drip. We're gonna do rock wars in just a little bit. It's 98 KUPD. It's out of control now.
