Episode Overview

This episode of Holmberg’s Morning Sickness focuses on the classic banter between John Holmberg, Brady Bogen, Bret Vesely, and Dick Toledo during the "Entertainment Drill" segment. Main topics include a humorous (and suspiciously scrutinized) story about Bret's wife's fat lip allegedly caused by their Doberman, lighthearted political hypotheticals involving fictional characters, a ranking of the world's "sexiest bald men," and some behind-the-scenes tales of celebrity encounters at the radio station. The team pokes fun at themselves and each other in their trademark irreverent style.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Did Bret’s Dog Really Give His Wife a Fat Lip?

• Timestamps: [01:11] – [05:31]
• Holmberg shares how he recently got a black eye from his own dog (Jack Ham) by accident. Bret chimes in with a story about his wife, "Matthia," getting a fat lip from their Doberman, Carmela.
• The group playfully interrogates Bret, implying he might be covering something up, leading to a running gag throughout the segment.
• Notable Quotes:
  • Holmberg: “Listen to sell this bag of crap. What?” [02:03]
  • Holmberg: “You should really think about euthanization. This dog is dangerous.” [02:37] (sarcastically)
  • F (Katie Hobbs impression): “I heard your wife’s uglier. I’m glad you hit her.” [04:01] (satirical character voice, not a real statement)
  • Holmberg: "Blink twice if Brett should be—if Brett's the dog, what?" [04:49]
• The teasing escalates with a spoof appearance by a "Governor Hobbs" (satirical), “legalizing" hitting women as a joke based on Bret’s questionable story.
  • F (as Hobbs): “‘Just made it legal. I made a governor's stamp and everything. It’s legal for Batman to hit woman, but he has to write down her name right now, and it has to be someone in his household.’” [04:14]

2. Which Fictional Characters Would Vote for Which Presidential Candidate?

• Timestamps: [05:31] – [07:15]

3. “World’s Sexiest Bald Men” Ranking

• Timestamps: [07:15] – [10:05]
• Brady brings up a new ranking based on factors like "smile analysis," "shine factor," and "vocal attraction."
• The top ten include Vin Diesel, The Rock, Samuel L. Jackson, Danny DeVito, Shaq, Prince William (as #1), among others.
• The group is bewildered by Danny DeVito and especially Prince William ranking higher than more conventionally “sexy” bald icons.
• Holmberg notes he’s on the list at #89, while someone else is “runner up to DeVito.”
• Notable Quotes:
  • D: “No woman is ever gonna put a poster of Danny DeVito in her room.” [09:47]
  • E: “You guys lost out to Prince William and Danny DeVito.” [08:42]
  • D: “How bad is it for Vin Diesel that he's on the list, but still four behind DeVito? That stings.” [08:56]

4. The “Sense of Humor” Dating Myth

• Timestamps: [10:05] – [11:11]

  • D: “That’s why girls in junior high always had posters of Buddy Hackett on their wall.” [10:08]
  • D: “Like, I’m here for the laughs. You said you wanted a guy with a sense of humor...I didn’t know I had to live up to the most beautiful rock man of all time.” [10:40]

5. The “Roger Rabbit” Sequel That Disney Won’t Make

• Timestamps: [11:11] – [14:32]

• Brady shares the awkward moment where he had to turn away Fleischer and Paul Rodriguez, both of whom arrived without being scheduled.
• Notable Quotes:
  • D: “She’s too whorish.” (On Jessica Rabbit) [11:24]
  • F: “He was a dick.” (Brady on Charles Fleischer) [12:55]
  • D: “And he was doing Stand up Somewhere. He used to be a bad Stand up Comet, and he did stand up somewhere. And Brady had to ask him to go home.” [13:12]

Tone & Style

The tone is classic “HMS”: sarcastic, quick-witted, self-deprecating, and occasionally profane—always with a fast back-and-forth.

They've got the specials, they've got the Everything's running. We've been telling you about this the whole time. The wacky mix them ups that's going on in this world. Of course, Brett, you know how I had Jack Ham hit me in the face with his head two days ago and blackened my eye a little and it only cut me. I think that might be from the cold compress, but got like a little scar.

[E]

Probably feel a little shinier.

I wasn't bleeding, but. I know. Well, no, it was his head. He doesn't have claws on his head, Brady.

[E]

Oh, that's right.

[D]

Yeah, that's right. Remember when I said head? That was the big giveaway. Yeah, I thought he swatted, but no, he hit me with his head as I bent down, he stood up and he. But he got me. Brett said that Matthia had the same thing happen to listen to this story. Go ahead, Brett.

[A]

Well, she's.

[D]

Listen to sell this bag of crap. What?

[A]

What are you talking.

[D]

No, go ahead.

[A]

No, no. It really happened or you want to.

[F]

No, no.

[D]

Tell me what you're trying to sell us. Go ahead.

[A]

Not that I was just. She's got me. She's got a fat lip right now because like, she came home last night and, you know, she bent down to pet Carmela and the Doberman just jacked her right in the. Right in the face. And she bit her lip.

[F]

That's exactly what happened. I was there. I just want to pop in there real quick. That's exactly what happened.

[A]

Thank you.

[F]

Brett was minding his own business.

[E]

So the do.

[F]

That's right.

[A]

Well, you know, I mean, things.

[F]

You know, things happen around Brett's house. The dog out of control.

[D]

Right.

[F]

You should really think about euthanization. This dog is dangerous. Also for your dog.

[A]

But, you know, I mean, on the flip side of. If you look at it, it's, you know, she has a fat lip now. After my alarm didn't go off this way.

[G]

That's what I'm saying.

[A]

I don't know.

[D]

I'm just saying she didn't make it to work on my alarm.

[A]

What do you mean?

[D]

In the middle of the day, he's like, oh, your dog gave you a black eye yesterday. Funny. That is the same thing. Almost ex is what happened to my wife, Matthia. Are you talking like that? What are you talking about? Anyway, she has got a broken lip that is fattened.

[E]

My dog, Luca Br.

[D]

It is completely from the dog. Not anything else.

[F]

Brett's alarm didn't go off. He was so concerned about her, he fell asleep. He was so out. He was. So you were sleeping.

[D]

That's exactly what happened.

[F]

When incident occurred.

[E]

You were asleep.

[F]

So sound asleep. He missed work.

[D]

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. My wife. My wife's lip was damaged. I'm so sad for it all. I am crying.

[E]

He said on the way in he had a dump. A remnant carpet that they don't use anymore.

[A]

I do a little remodeling at the house.

[D]

Yeah, well, you know, it's been tough on him, so he's gotta, you know, gotta fill his time. Oh, no.

[F]

Hi, Fr.

[A]

Hi, Katie.

[D]

Governor.

[F]

Katie Hobbs. Hi, guys.

[E]

Governor Schnapps.

[C]

Okay.

[F]

I heard your wife's uglier. I'm glad you hit her.

[A]

Hey, I didn't it was the dog. I didn't do it.

[F]

I'm gonna make it legal.

[A]

What? That you can hit women?

[F]

That you can hit women.

[D]

Oh, okay.

[E]

Oops.

[D]

I mean, woman.

[F]

I misspelled it. Well, you gotta pick one, Brad. What's it gonna be? Just made it legal. I made a governor's stamp and everything. It's legal for Batman to hit woman, but he has to write down her name right now, and it has to be someone in his household, so.

[D]

Good luck, Brad.

[E]

Stay busy.

[F]

You're welcome.

[E]

Thanks.

[A]

Katie.

[E]

Good to see you.

[F]

Your wife's face. Yeah, it looks like one of the Kardashians had, like, a bad lip injection. And also, if they were 90.

[D]

Man, she just hates Hobbs. Just hates Mathias. Sorry about your lip, Messiah. I'm concerned about you. Blink twice if Brett should be. If Brett's the dog, what? Nothing worse. Brett walking around this weekend with his wife with a split lip. The dog. She ran into the dog.

[E]

See Dobie on a leash.

[D]

It just so happens to be off of my story, where I actually did get a black eye for her.

[A]

Right.

[D]

And you're like, oh, that's not bad. I'm gonna give her one today. Mad Dog.

[E]

Whoops.

[A]

Of course. It was Carmela.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

The. The character from the Sopranos.

[D]

I know, I know. They're fighting over me.

[E]

Well, Americans were asked in a new poll who various fictional characters would vote for who.

[D]

Huh.

[E]

Basically, which candidates. Which fictional characters on TV and movies.

[D]

Yes. Would vote for Paris, a real presidential thing. If it were determined by fictional characters.

[E]

Yes.

[D]

Gotcha.

[E]

Kamala Harris supporters include Liz Lemon from 30 Rock.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Leslie Knope from Parks and Rec.

[D]

Yep.

[E]

Phoebe, Monica, and Joey from Friends.

[A]

Of course.

[E]

Olivia Benson from Law and Order, Elaine from Seinfeld, Peter Parker, Spiderman, Marge Simpson, Blanche from the Golden Girls, Barbie and Ken.

Donald Trump voters. Tony Stark, Iron Man, Archie Bunker, Hank Hill, Dom Draper.

[D]

Oh, yeah.

[E]

Roseanne Connor. Tony Soprano.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

Omer Simpson.

[D]

Well, you just got the endorsement.

[A]

There you go.

[E]

Hannibal Lecter.

[D]

There's my vote. That's it.

[E]

Biff from Back to the Future, Dwight from the Office, Ron Swanson from Parks and Rec, Walter White from Breaking Bad, Rambo and Maverick from Top Gun.

[D]

All right.

[A]

Tony Soprano. Had me.

[D]

Yeah. I'm kind of with you on that one. I'm kind of with you on that one.

[F]

I'm thinking about voting here. She's not gonna vote for that girl. Who's your Boss of this family. Brett. It's a man.

[A]

Of course.

[F]

Never have a woman in charge of anything. It's ridiculous. She should be somebody's goomon second in charge. She was America's Kuma for four years. Nothing happened.

[E]

A marketing agency used a list of criteria to find the sexiest bald men in the world.

[D]

Well, here we go.

[E]

They used a smile analysis. Okay, Shine factor. Vocal attraction.

[D]

I don't think that's a thing. You better not. Don't search that.

[E]

Media perception. Check that out. Oh, my God, no. Here we go. The top 10.

[D]

Almost positive. Brady said the two worst things you can say on the radio in the last 10 minutes.

[E]

Gulp.

[F]

Google search. Shine factor.

[D]

That's a good band name, though.

[E]

Number 10, Vin Diesel.

[D]

Very sexy. Baldman. The Rock is number one.

[E]

He's number two.

[D]

Oh, Jason Statham isn't technically bald. Didn't make the no Shine factor.

[E]

Number nine, Stanley Tucci.

[D]

Okay, come on. I'm better than Stanley Tucci. Even with this giant.

[E]

Number eight. Some French soccer coach, Bruce Willis in there somewhere. Number seven, Samuel L. Jackson.

[D]

Good one. I was gonna say the black, you know. Yeah, Exactly. Yeah.

[E]

Number six, Danny DeVito.

[A]

You guys got a shot. Come on.

[E]

Number five, Terry Crews.

[D]

I don't even want to hear the rest.

[E]

Number four, surfer Kelly Slater. Number three, Shaq. Okay. Number two, the Rock. To the Rock.

[A]

Number one, Michael Jord.

[E]

Prince William.

[D]

What?

[A]

Oh, come on.

[E]

Jesus.

[A]

You guys lost out to Prince William and Danny Devil.

[C]

15.

[E]

And John, you were number 89.

[D]

I was 89th. You were 15?

[E]

Yeah, yeah.

[D]

Because of Danny DeVito. Voter. You run her up the DeVito in the. Let's make this fun.

[E]

You're allowed to vote twice.

[D]

Sure, sure. Okay. That stings. I mean, not that I expected to be on the list, but, I mean, how bad is it for Vin Diesel that he's on the list, but still four behind DeVita. That stings.

[E]

They are basically asked a question about how their performance is going to be pictured.

[D]

Brett just pulled up a picture of Danny DeVito because he's a hairy. You're a hair haver. This is bigoted of you. That's the one.

[G]

He's adorable.

[D]

But they said sexy. No woman is ever gonna put a poster of Danny DeVito in her room. No kid is like, yes, we do. There could be, like. There could be a girl who has a poster of the Rock or Terry Crews or Vin Diesel.

[E]

Sure.

[D]

Nobody's got a Danny DeVito one. That's when that Sunny in Philadelphia is pretty popular. That was the old joke that I.

[E]

Forgot he has a jersey mike sub in his hand.

[D]

Sure, you've got the picture, but it's got a focus. There's. You don't even know who the guy got a hyper focus on. That's the old joke that the guy used to tell I forget. It was like women used to always.

[F]

Say, I just want a guy with a sense of humor. I don't care how he looks like.

[D]

And that's why girls in junior high always had posters of Buddy Hackett on their wall.

[A]

George Burns. Yeah, yeah, it's good.

[D]

George Burns. Sense of humor is all they're ever after. They're. They're just constant liars about that. You go into a girl's room. I remember going into a girl's room and she had posters of Sebastian Bach and Sting everywhere. Her walls were covered in both of those guys. And I'm like, oh, well, I'm gonna go.

[F]

Why?

[D]

Come on.

[A]

No posters of George Carlin on the wall.

[D]

Like, I'm here for the last. You said you wanted a guy with a sense of humor. I signed up for that. I didn't know that I had to live up to the most beautiful rock man of all time and then Sting.

[F]

No, I just want a guy.

[D]

Yeah, yeah. George Carlin or Dick Cavett. I mean, there was nobody I related to on the walls at the time. A little bit distinct because he and I had a similar male pattern. Baldness. He was in his 40s. I was in my teens. But it's still. We were pretty much on the same page.

[E]

Robert Zemeckis says there's a good script for Roger Rabbit sequel sitting at Disney, but they won't make it because Disney won't show Jessica Rabbit in it.

[D]

She's too whorish.

[F]

Yeah, no kidding.

[E]

And actually, in the sequel, she. Landown attraction Jessica Rabbit's in a trench coat.

[D]

Wow.

[E]

Oh, that's right.

[D]

Not in the red sparkly dress.

[E]

But he's saying maybe a chance now since Deadpool is under the Disney umbrella.

[D]

Interesting.

[E]

It should be a softball.

[D]

But violence has always trumped sexuality. If you can. You can have people getting killed like crazy. But if you show a nipple, the world collapses. And Jessica Rabbit is very sexy. But is it still Kathleen Turner's voice? Because that kind of changes. Yeah. Oh, boy.

[E]

Have to do.

[D]

AI, look, Roger, it's time for a couple of cookies. Don't you think we should eat something?

[F]

Please, Jessica, leave some food for the rest of us.

[E]

If that happens, would we have him in here?

[D]

No. Roger Rabbit.

[E]

I'll take care of that guy.

[D]

Brady had to kick him out once. Robert Fleischman. Is it Fleischman? Charles Fleischman.

[E]

I thought it was Charles.

[D]

Charles Fleischman.

[A]

Brady had to kick him out.

[D]

He showed up one day and we didn't have him booked.

[A]

He just showed up out of the blue.

[D]

Charles Fleischman. And then he's.

[A]

He's.

[D]

And I said, no, guess we had something else going on. And he stood there at Friday. And that was back when we first started, and Brady was, quote, the producer. So it's basically just he and I in the room. And I said, well, I got. You got to go take care of this. What producers do.

[F]

All right, fine.

[D]

And he comes back and you can see it in his face. Puts his headphones on. I'm like, what happened?

[F]

He was a dick.

[D]

Like, what? And evidently, the guy who voiced Roger Rabbit started to give Brady a don't you know who I am? Moment.

[F]

Oh, man, I'm sorry. We didn't have you booked. You gotta go.

[D]

Don't you know who I am?

[F]

I do. You're Roger Rabbit's voice. It's time to go.

[D]

And he was doing Stand up Somewhere. He used to be a bad Stand up Comet, and he did stand up somewhere. And Brady had to ask him to go home.

[E]

Not happy.

[F]

No, please, get the hell out of here.

[D]

And he was. He did that to Paul Rodriguez, too. Remember? Paul Rodriguez just showed up one day and we didn't have room for him. Like, I'm sorry, we can't. I can't allow this.

[E]

He understood it more so that it.

[D]

Was like, look, we didn't book you. I don't know how you got here.

[E]

But, yeah, he went to the wrong station. Well, we're here.

[A]

I thought Piolene was on the air. You know, we were in the quad.

[D]

So this has to be a station that'll take me. I'm Paul Rodriguez.

[E]

I think it's there.

[D]

He drove through, said, there's a radio station back there. Holmes, pull over. They'll take me. Turned out we were the ones, so we had to tell him no. Although I would have taken Paul Rodriguez much faster than Charles Fleischmann. Fleischer. Fleischmann.

[F]

I don't remember.

[D]

And I can do the Roger Rabbit voice just as good as him. Even though he invented it. We don't need him. Kathleen Turner. However, we're gonna have to have Brattle and come up here and do that one.

[E]

There you go.

[D]

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be in the new Roger Rabbit. My name is Bradlin. Please, Roger Follow me to the cab that Bob Hoskins used to drive. But he's no longer with us.

[F]

Please, Jessica. You're so pragmatic.

[D]

Well, it's true. Never forget the first time she saw bus. And I never heard her voice. Tiny little frame, all that hair. Looks at me with those Disney eyes. What's your dog's name? Oh, Jesus Christ. It can't come out of you. Are you a recording? What? What are you talking about? Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He fully erect.

[e-mail] hey, it's Larry McFeely here with my friend Wayne from Amco. And, Wayne, if my car has an extended warranty, do I have to take it back to the dealer for service?
