Toledo
Good Thursday morning to you Phoenix. Hello world.
Holmberg
Hi.
Toledo
I think we might have done this one before, but if the sun exploded it would take 8 minutes and 20 seconds for all the energy to hit us.
Holmberg
Vaporize we'd have time to think about it just for a second, and then we'd be like, game plan. I don't know. What do you do? The news says, hey, guys, sun blew up. You got eight minutes. I mean, like, seven, 7:40 now. Well, the more I talk, the less time you've got, so turn off the radio. What's wrong with you? I. You know what? I kind of. This is bad. As we start to wind down, the morning sickness, and God knows when that comes back, if it we stay for another couple years or whatever, I want to be on the air telling people that the sun just blew up. I wouldn't mind. I wouldn't mind having that be the show's legacy.
Toledo
Just like fire drills in schools. And, you know, we should have a Sun party drill. Practice that. But you got 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
Holmberg
Think about it. Who's gonna believe the party man? Who's gonna believe us? Like, the news breaks, you get alert on your phone. Maybe you're driving along, you got your phone. And then the fart show says, this just in. The sun just blew up. Like, I'm not staying here to report to you for eight minutes when you go rip one off. Not gonna bring Rome in to announce it for us. Great day. And who's gonna buy it? So for the first seven minutes, you're like, no, he's doing research and realizing that all the satellites are down and your Internet doesn't work. You're like, maybe the sun did blow up. And by the time you actually accept it, it's over. But for eight minutes, you're like, what bit is dickhead doing this morning?
Toledo
You see that flash in the sky immediately. Yeah, Eight minutes for a freak off.
Holmberg
That's right. But that's if you believe it immediately. Like, you have no skepticism in your mind. And fart joke guy says, sun just blew up. You got eight minutes. And there's like, okay, I better start banging somebody. Because that's what I've always thought in my head. People always. Dudes, it's a guy thing, and we're all idiots when there's a catastrophe. We all think we get a plane's going down, bone one. But, like, you're gonna maintain an erection during the sun exploding. I think you got something else on your mind if you can. I'm impressed. But also, you're kind of a douche. I do like that. Brett's idea was to bring a character voice in to try to say, great day. Looks pretty bad for you, though. In eight minutes, the sun will swallow Us, like a whale swallowing a minnow. You don't have a chance. Eight minutes. We're all dead. So get it out there. I mean, saying I love you doesn't really matter right now.
Toledo
10, 9.
Holmberg
If you can maintain an erect out there, you have one minute left. Ryan, do we drop the ball? Maroon 5 will be playing. That is how I want the ship to go down. Yeah, it's just I would get that alert. I don't think I'd feel responsible to tell you guys. Sun just blew up. Peace out. There's just any of. Adios.
John
Fade to black.
Holmberg
Maybe I do. Maybe I do. Maybe I'm the. Maybe we become the Titanic band and we just play it out. Brady starts talking about hot dogs slipping through the grill. Gotta foil that. Especially with all the sunshine we're about to taste. We are going full Nagasaki, like, times a million.
John
Takes me longer than eight minutes to get home.
Holmberg
So, yeah, I'm not going home. We get stuck in traffic, everybody trying to go home. You got eight minutes. You just make a phone call or two. Maybe some FaceTime, which I'm not a fan of. Not a big FaceTime guy.
John
Last. First and last FaceTime ever.
Holmberg
I was asked to do a podcast, and I did it. I don't even know where or what it is. I'll get information later. But they wanted to FaceTime it. I'm like, no, no thanks. Like, what? You'll be in Egypt for an hour. You're not gonna do FaceTime? Nah, it'll just be audio. You don't see me laying down, make an eye roll on you the entire show. Cause that's what I'll be doing. It was fine. I don't know. I'll let you know if it. I don't even care if you hear it. I like Toledo's idea. Just play Journey and it's just. Yeah, it'll end. Yeah. And then when it ends, it ends. But you got to time that just right. And what would we do? Eight minutes till the sun catches us and a lot of people just start shooting themselves, I think.
Toledo
Yeah.
Holmberg
I don't understand. I mean, I do. That makes a ton of sense to me. Why would you do that? Just in case.
John
Watch it come in.
Toledo
You can vaporize. Yeesh.
Holmberg
That sounds no good.
Toledo
You won't feel it.
John
A lot of fun.
Holmberg
What if you did?
Toledo
Maybe a little.
Holmberg
Maybe just even if you did, then what matters? You're gonna be dead in a minute anyway. What difference to me. Yeah, it's gonna get. There's. Jesus. It's gonna get real hot. Like for the last four minutes. Jesus bragger. I could.
John
I could bang one out. And I still got six minutes to figure out what the rest of my life is.
Holmberg
It's a good email, but I couldn't. I'm hard as a rock right now. I want to give you one more. We've got eight minutes to live. And that's what you want to do. Yes. Yes. Finally. Can I have that ass?
Toledo
No.
Holmberg
It still hurts too much. The sun's about to. Such a prude. If the sun blows up, I hope Russell and his boyfriend are first ones. Get vaporized. Since he's not listening to you guys anymore, he'll miss the announcement. He's listening and he's about to lose. Fanduel. Ah, yeah, that's weird.
Toledo
Indiana has 10 of the 12 largest high school basketball gyms in the country. The ones that aren't in Indiana are in Texas and Illinois.
John
I was gonna say. And Texas has all the biggest high school football stadiums.
Holmberg
Oh, these stadiums are awesome, John.
John
If the sun blew up, I'm. I'm throwing it against the wall. Texting everyone in my contact list, send nudes. Don't care who sends back. Taking my shot.
Holmberg
I'm basically gonna look around the office going, well, I don't have time to get home and I don't think this counts as cheating now, so pretty much gonna rape Trip. What's happening? You got seven minutes to live, old man.
John
What if he grabs you on the head?
Holmberg
Let's go. He's kissing back. I didn't expect this. Right here on my neck. Kiss my neck.
John
I always wanted to.
Holmberg
I like from my earlobe to my shoulder, right? Just work your way up and down.
Toledo
Oh, then eight, 20 happens. Nothing happens.
Holmberg
I don't know if this is the you guys are sitting there. I don't know if this is the exploding sun talking or just the heat, but I don't know how you did it, but I'm soaking wet. You're ruining it. You're supposed to fight back.
Toledo
The coldest place on earth is a village called Oymayakan and Siberia, Russia. If you were to go outside naked on an average day, you'd freeze to death in one minute.
John
Maybe do that on the day the sun blows up.
Holmberg
Don't do it.
Toledo
It's record low temperature is negative 96 degrees Fahrenheit.
Holmberg
God, I hope the sun doesn't blow up just thinking about that.
Toledo
According to a baby name consultant, my best friend's dad.
Holmberg
That's a job. Yeah, I can do that. What Is it baby name consultant? You're so indecisive. You hire a guy to help you name your kid.
John
You could be just in the market for Italians alone. Think about that.
Toledo
Imagine that.
Holmberg
I mean, is that if you fail at being a life coach, you get to be a baby name consultant. We're starting this. Do it. You want to call your kid Braden like all the other ones? What happened to good names like Mike or David Evito? What are you talking about? Christopher Skyler. Let me quote a good friend of mine who said there's never been a grandpa Skyler. Those kids don't live long. Anthony, you're naming your child Tony. That's the 18th Tony in the neighborhood. Well, you're all hiring the right guy then.
Toledo
Here are the hot new trends. Look out for 2025.
Holmberg
I want to be a baby name counselor.
John
Well, you just announced it. If you want to name your baby, email us.
Holmberg
Thinking about Penelope or Skyler. We're gonna have an X in it somewhere. What the you thinking?
Toledo
Yeah.
Holmberg
Your daughter's name's Lisa and your son's name is David. Oh, okay. It's so basic, right? Because you're basic. Nothing special about your kids have a weird middle name. Yeah, yeah. And then your grandfather's middle name. Pay tribute to who brought you here. This is ridiculous.
Toledo
You're close on the trend. It's grandpa. Names for girls have been trending for a while. That's the other way around. NameBerry predicted in 2022 says names like Max, Lenny, and Teddy would become popular for girls.
Holmberg
That's kind of hot.
Toledo
Lenny. So for. Here's some other examples.
Holmberg
There was a Lenny. Those are stripper names. Yeah, those are strippers.
Toledo
Yeah.
Holmberg
Max.
Toledo
Other examples that are on the poll. I like Max, Scotty, Tommy, Mickey, Billy.
Holmberg
This is all sexy chicks with those kind of androgynous names that are end in ie. I like that because that's because of Billie Eilish and Billy Bogan. Bobby, what's her name? The one that was in Stranger Things. And I like that. Billy Bogan. Your grandma. Well, she was the crazy one.
Toledo
She was. No, that was Ruth. Billy was a mulligan.
Holmberg
She was the make good on Ruth.
Toledo
Yeah.
Holmberg
Okay. I always get him confused. One was in the attic and not allowed to talk to the people. And then Billy showed up.
John
John, you say you give Brady a lot of crap, but I gotta be honest, Brady's a trendsetter. Kirby is my grandfather's name.
Holmberg
Yeah. Also former center fielder of the twins who didn't make it to grandpa's age, but would have been a grandfather by now. Yeah, Kirby's an old man's name. Yeah, that's pretty good. I guess you'd have to name your daughter.
Toledo
I know.
Holmberg
Yeah. It's a vacuum in a video game.
John
But I'm Italian.
Toledo
She can already.
John
I can already see how my meeting with Brett's gonna go. Your first born will be Vincenzo. Your second born will be named Tony Two Toes.
Holmberg
And you're gonna like it. You can take my advice or not, but you're paying the fee.
Toledo
Who?
Holmberg
Who? And that's worse than your wife going. We're going to a debate party and that's final. There's nothing worse than having your wife. We're gonna hire a name consultant. We're not qualified to name our own kid. We're not qualified to have a kid. If you need help naming it, you're not gonna do too well raising it. I can't make any decisions at all. What do we do when it's hungry? Call the baby crying consultant.
Toledo
McBoaty. McBoatface. Get over here.
Holmberg
I mean. I mean.
John
So John, did I.
Holmberg
That's a job right there. I didn't know that was a thing where you could actually make money.
John
John, did I screw up? My daughter Charlotte, we call Charlie. Her middle name is Byron, after my.
Holmberg
Father in law, Charlie. Byron. If Charlie's hot, you got yourself something.
Toledo
You got a future.
Holmberg
If not Charlie B. Charlotte the hippo. And she's gonna have trouble. So just keep her in shape because then she's Charlie and people will give her stuff. Free gifts and things. Homeburg's morning sickness. Hear the words you say sometimes.
John
I mean, who talks like that?
Holmberg
98 KUPD. Holmberg's Morning Sickness.
Toledo
This is kind of cool. The Secret Service started using nicknames for presidents and their families in 1945, which was Roosevelt and his wife and his lovely wife. Those are the only two. The other, you know, they go down the line and do the whole family members.
Holmberg

Toledo
I'll get you hers.
Holmberg
Hers was pretty good. If I remember right. It Wasn't like, funny, but it was a good name that was like. It would just bounce off the halls and get back to Jack. So he would pull out.
Toledo
Yeah, it might be. Maybe.
Holmberg
Or it wasn't. It wasn't like anything outstanding. It was just real easy to. It was like, okay, good. All right, everybody scramble.

Toledo
Yeah.
Holmberg
And then somebody came in and said, lace is in the building, goes over to Bobby, and Bobby just goes, ah, yeah, my turn. Pass it over. Don't bogart the vag. So he was cucking at first. Well, he was in the room, like, probably waiting his turn like he was gonna. She was gonna get him anyway. And the lady's like, he just passed me off. And the next thing you know, I'm having sex with Bobby in the pool. Because Lace was in the building.

Toledo
Connie and Brienne or Connor. Sorry.
Holmberg
Don't apologize to me.
Toledo
They're a couple in British Columbia, Canada, and they were taking down some drywall in their home. Recently. Made an odd discovery. At one point, the insulation stopped and there was a random stuffed animal. Started pulling down more drywall, more stuffed animals. Insulation ended up getting. They're using 110 plush animals. Pull that out of the walls. But it was for insulation. But they went on Tick Tock and posted. They're older stuffed animals, so they're not as good. And a girl contacted Connie Connor and said, you just. That was basically the doll that I had growing up with or the plush animal when I was a kid. So they packed it up and sent it to her. And now they've been sending these older plush animals to people that grew up. You know, they don't have it anymore.
Holmberg
Yeah, how about that?
Toledo
They sent them to Las Vegas, Indiana, South Carolina.
Holmberg
Where do we see if it's one of our plushie toys from when we're children? It's got a link.
Toledo
It does. Well, they put them up, people can see them on Tick Tock. There is some Profanity.
Holmberg
There's profanity on tick tock.
Toledo
I mean, if we pull.
Holmberg
They're talking about. You guys aren't gonna believe what I found in the walls over here. Children's toys. Look at this right here. This remind you of your childhood? You can have it for a fee.
Toledo
And the other thing is, I don't know. You know, when I looked at it briefly, looking at the different animals, I'm like, those are older. But I don't.
Holmberg
Can I ask you again where I would find this? Don't just say tick tock. That's a big animal. Like an address.
Toledo
No, they didn't give a link.
Holmberg
Do I search tick tock?
John
Allow me to swoop in.
Toledo
I would go to.
Holmberg
Oh, boy.
Toledo
Connor and Brienne's Tick tock. No, I don't know.
Holmberg
You don't know what it's called? Didn't include that. They'll just browse all of tick tock.
Toledo
They just. They. I just have the links and click on the links there. But I didn't look.
Holmberg
It does it on the link. It say anything about the tick tock.
Toledo
It might have.
Holmberg
There it is. Thanks, Toledo. Why are they. Oh, the little ducky. Everybody had that little duck, I think. But they use those little ducks in the walls.

That looks like a head cover. That's not the one.
Holmberg

Toledo
There's the one.
Holmberg
Huh. Look at all those little animals. And they were just running interference for sound and. And air in the house.
Toledo
Cleaned up halfway.

This seems pretty nice. Little diaper lover just swept all in. He got all the toys, by the way. Sorry. Before he gets sentenced. Son of a. I didn't see any of my original Teddy. I still have my guy.
Toledo
Who are you looking for?
Holmberg
I want to see what he looks like when he was a kid.
John
Oh, gotcha.
Holmberg
He does not have buttons for eyes. He's got real. I think they're real eyes, actually.
John
How worn is he?
Holmberg
He's pretty worn.
Toledo
Is he?
Holmberg
Teddy seen some stuff? Yeah.
John
Stuff he doesn't want to talk about.
Holmberg
Teddy won't talk about it. If Teddy was a living child, I'd be in jail. And not because I'm touching Teddy. Just the stuff I did to myself. Things I did to myself and to others. While Teddy sat on his perch, Teddy was in the room. When I tried to fold myself up.
Toledo
He had stadium Seats.
Holmberg
Oh, he had. He had the best seat in the house for me. Trying to see if it went in. I wonder if I can get this in my mouth. Teddy was there. And then the nerve of me to at night grab him and go, I'm just going to sleep with this guy now. He's just a quivering, quivering comfort. This guy just tried to blow himself and now he wants to hug me. Teddy's still on a shelf in the guest room. Always will be. All right, More.
Toledo
And the last one. No, no, this is not one. This is just someone eating flypaper.
Holmberg
No, she's eating flies off the flypaper of that kid.
Toledo
Almost got him.
Holmberg
Look, it's got me. That got me.
Toledo
That's pretty. It's real.
Holmberg
Don't do it. Should we just skip my videos today, then? Oh, my God. I can't see that. Oh, my God. You got the watery eyes.
Toledo
Just growing up, seeing those things hanging.
Holmberg
Out on storefront storefronts in the Midwest. They have those ugly there. Some people never ch. Change them.
Toledo
She found a gem.
Holmberg
I thought that was going to be granola everywhere for sure. I almost lost. It's still hanging around.
Toledo
How many did you have this morning?
Holmberg
I'm not.
Toledo
Don't do it. You want me to put it back up so we can get rid of it?
Holmberg
Go to break. Oh, God.
Toledo
That's the worst sound we've had on the air compared to.
Holmberg
Every time my. Every time my brain thinks of it. We found it. We found my button. There it is. I didn't know that. Oh, I just now discovered that after some of the stuff we've seen on my videos. Fly paper gets you. Really? A lady eating flies right off of it.
Toledo
Going back.
John
Maggots are okay.
Holmberg
I can't have that. That's my button.
Toledo
I didn't.
Holmberg
I didn't know that till just now.
Toledo
It got me last time.
John
Wait till Pablo gets in there. They're listening outside.
Holmberg
That's my button. Oh, man. It's. It's hanging around. It's on the verge. I'm surprised nothing came out.
John
Nothing came out.
Holmberg
It sounded like that was all dry a lot.
Toledo
Should have been some granola.
Holmberg
Should have been some coke. At least your eyes. Not that. Pablo, calm down.
John
Oh, at least your eyes have cleared.
Holmberg
Think of the stuff we've seen. I know. That's why I'm like, see this Asian lady eating off a flypaper? And I don't. I. That's Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erect.

Episode: 11-27-25 - BR - MIX - 5x - It Would Take 8mins Before We Would Know If The Sun Exploded
This morning’s episode dives into the kind of darkly funny, hypothetical banter that Holmberg’s Morning Sickness is known for. The team—John Holmberg (host), Brady Bogen, Bret Vesely, and Dick Toledo—kick around the chilling concept: What if the Sun exploded, and we all had eight minutes left to live? They riff on what everyone would (and wouldn’t) do with their last moments, veer into the subject of bizarre job titles like "baby name consultant," the strangest things ever found during home renovations, and what makes them collectively gag. The show is rich in ridiculous asides, irreverent jokes, and a dose of Arizona flavor.

(23:21–25:34)

"For the first seven minutes, you’re like, no, he’s doing research...and by the time you actually accept it, it’s over."
(Holmberg, 03:01)

This episode is an exemplary slice of Holmberg’s Morning Sickness: outrageous, fast-paced, and thoroughly tongue-in-cheek. Through banter about astronomy-horror, bizarre jobs, questionable parenting choices, weird insulation methods, and a flypaper-eating challenge, the crew keeps things edgy and funny while sharing genuine surprise and disgust. If you love irreverent banter, think radio mornings should be unpredictable, or just want to hear what grown men say they’d do with their final minutes on Earth, this episode delivers.
