[Brady Bogan]

Friday morning to you, Phoenix. Hello world.

[Brett]

We've made it.

[Brady Bogan]

A company surveyed 1,000 people on GLP1 medications like Ozempic. And 12% of the Americans on those drugs say they plan to pause them for the holidays so they can indulge.

[Brett]

It's good for you. It's real healthy. Shut your body's digestive system down completely and then turn around a few seconds later, fill it back up, and then start taking those shots again. You're gonna make it.

[Brady Bogan]

Top temptations, Christmas cookies, sweets. 54% like to scarf those down.

[Brett]

I thought the whole point of the Ozempic was that you didn't. You still had the temptations, but you didn't eat because you weren't hungry. So it's better now. It's better to take it now. You'll still eat a little bit. You just won't crush it. It's like the whole point is.

[Brady Bogan]

I mean, what about the ones that are actually taking it for the diabetes?

[Brett]

They're not into the weight loss part.

[Brady Bogan]

Well, I don't think they would pause it for that. That's what I'm saying.

[Brett]

No, you can't pause diabetes for cookies, Brady. That's a terrible idea.

[Brady Bogan]

I know.

[Brett]

You shouldn't be a doctor anymore. How great of disease would be if.

[Brady Bogan]

You could just pause it.

[Brett]

I'm going to take a couple weeks off this medicine and I'm going to just crush some cookies. You're diabetic. That's a terrible idea. Well, it's the holidays, so Jesus will know. Yeah. People with diabetes are not on OIC for the same reason.

[Brady Bogan]

Right. But it's also to prevent diabetes. So it's not treatment.

[Brett]

Preventing. You have potential diabetes. It's not a preventative like a vaccine. You have it. You have propensity of. You're going to. It slows your diabetes. It keeps your. What are the A1C or whatever the hell that is. The. You're slowing down the. The problems you already have before they get really out of hand. But don't. Don't listen to Dr. Bogan. The holidays are not a time to stop your medicine.

[Brady Bogan]

What I said.

[Brett]

I know it was a little. Yeah, kind of. It was. In a weird way.

[Brady Bogan]

No, but I'm like. What I said was. I can't believe if any of those people that are having.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[Brady Bogan]

For that treatment. Why would you pause.

[Brett]

They wouldn't. What we're saying. We're not even suggesting that. You're saying the people. Only the ones using it for weight loss. Not the ones who need it for actual medical concerns. The ones who are Doing it to cheat diet.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah, that was my qu. I mean, it's 12%. Does that include. No. People, people, people.

[Brett]

Issues with diabetes should not take a break for sweets and cookies for the holidays. Just. What? Just to be clear.

[Brady Bogan]

This is big news. Remember berries? General Mills is reviving a popular cereal from the 60s 70s. It's called Twinkles.

[Brett]

No idea.

[John]

Not popular.

[Brady Bogan]

I couldn't. My grandmother used to have it at her house.

[Brett]

Oh, no kidding.

[Brady Bogan]

And when I would sleep over the next morning, Twinkles was there. Twinkle's the elephant. Oh, it is a. The taste. It's more like Corn Pops, but it's Twinkles. What's that?

[Brett]

But it's Twinkles. Yeah, it's twinkling Corn Pops.

[Brady Bogan]

It'll be available at Walmart.

[Brett]

Corn Pops for homosexuals. Twinkle.

[Brady Bogan]

There's the Twinkles, the elephant with the front pack.

[Brett]

Never seen this.

[Brady Bogan]

I remember when I forgot about. But then when I saw the front of that box. That's for cereal she used to get.

[Brett]

That reminds your grandma.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah. The taste of grandma with papal chick in the morning eating Twinkles. Oh, and now I can relive it.

[Brett]

How much are homes are they like six, seven grand a month?

[John]

Yeah, I think so.

[Brett]

Yeah. For a decent one looking into that.

[John]

He'S probably still at the decent stage.

[Brett]

Oh, yeah, no, he's. He's gonna. Yeah, he'll be all right. They're gonna. They're gonna need to up his money. Well, to get him now we can save money.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[Brett]

In the long run, it's cost effective to put Brady in one.

[Brady Bogan]

Now.

[Brett]

Twinkles is. Yeah, that died before. Like, you were young.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah, I was young.

[Brett]

That's. I've never heard of Twinkles. And I was a cereal aficionado and I would have eaten Twinkles. I liked the logo. The elephant looked adorable. And you.

[Brady Bogan]

You ate cereal based on logos?

[Brett]

Sure. That's what marketing did. Are you kidding me?

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[Brett]

Toucan Sam, the Twix Rabbit, the Honey Bear. All of them were aimed at me. And I liked all of them. The frog dig them super golden. Imagine eating Twinkles and Dan walking. Well, that would have been. What's he got there, Marcy? What's he eating? It's Twinkles. It's his favorite. God damn it. You know what you're doing? He's gonna wear culottes now. He's not gonna wear culottes. We've made that clear. But he's gonna want to. And the more you take him away, the more he's gonna want it. Eating Twinkles in my house. Jesus.

[John]

There will be no twinkles in my house.

[Brett]

Can I have a banana, dad? Oh, of course. Yeah. Get him the biggest one. Get him the biggest banana. Have you noticed all the Nat Geos? Nobody's cracked them. The kid doesn't even. Not even looking in there. But he's. He's pounding twinkles like there's no tomorrow.

[Brady Bogan]

They pulled it from the shelves in 1973.

[Brett]

Don't you want some rice checks, son? No, I like twinkles. Ah, what's your second favorite one? I like those Lucky Charms. They got the rainbow. Ah, God damn it. You're gonna be a Peter puffer. I gotta tell my friends.

[Brady Bogan]

And now it's time for some pee pee poo poo news. Oh, hello my friends, Brady Bogan here with your pee pee poo poo news. According to a survey, nearly half of American carry backup underwear with it in case they have an accident.

[Brett]

Starting to hate this.

[Brady Bogan]

Or because they plan to change clothes like after going to the gym.

[John]

Okay, that's better.

[Brett]

But that's not backup underwear.

[Brady Bogan]

70% of people who carry spare underwear say they have had it come in handy at least once.

[Brett]

That is not.

[John]

That means there's like six downstairs right now that have backup underwear.

[Brett]

Spare underwear to me is break glass in case of emergency underwear. Not I'm going to the gym, I'm going to sweat in this and I want to be nice to people that's just changing your clothes. Spare underwear is at any given time. Now I might leave 60% or you're a. If you're a woman and you're stuffing another thong in your purse because you might wreck this one.

[John]

It's been a good solid about 14 months hoeing in the valley to most everything or you're.

[Brett]

And you know what? It almost always gets me because it makes a ton of sense.

[Brady Bogan]

It's more common among young, younger generations. 60% of Gen Zers and 57% of millennials say they have in in case of emergency underwear this lens.

[Brett]

And again, Brett's right. Very rarely are you with with what women wear now as underwear. Yeah, you're not turdent. They're not absorbing much. Yeah. So the backup underwear is for purposes of whoring, how many broads, if you check their purses in old town Scottsdale, how many broads got an extra two to three? Here's the fun thing. At 8 o' clock at night. No, 8 o'.

[Brady Bogan]

Clock.

[Brett]

8 o' clock, you check it and it's a brand new fresh pair. And at 11:30 after the swap out one looks like melted. Little Debbie smells like jam. She's got her back. She's got her backup panties on. If you're carrying around backup panties, you're a horse. You're a whore. That's right.

[Brady Bogan]

They also found that people who carry backup underwear are more likely to replace their undergarments sooner. 82% of them say they should replace your underwear after two years. Among the people who don't carry spares, 83% say they keep their underwear for at least three years.

[Brett]

How about wash your ass and stop pooping your pants? How about that? Instead of thinking, wow, I am definitely going to be out for four hours. That means I'm wrecking this underwear. I better bring a backup. I don't wear underwear. And you know what? I've never worried about wrecking my pants. Not once do I have a backup pair of pants in case these go sideways. If I crap myself, I'm going home. I'm not changing and coming back to you guys. Good thing I brought my backup pants, because I just myself. So I brought backup pants because I knew that was a possibility when I started the day. When I start the day. There. Pack up these, because you never know when you're going to take a dump in your drawers.

[John]

So wallet, keys, purse, wallet, backup pants, everything. Backup underwear.

[Brett]

Yeah. I'll give it to you. If you had a colostomy or like, something opened you up. Horan. Yeah.

[John]

The bag takes care of everything. What do you need? The backup undies?

[Brett]

Oh, sure, I suppose.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[John]

Doesn't the bag take care of everything?

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah, it's on the side.

[Brett]

Yeah. If you had that, I guess. Yeah, you don't even need that. If you've got a port, you should.

[John]

Be pristine if you've got the bag.

[Brett]

So we go back to Brett's argument, or you're just Little Debbie and up.

[John]

Your first drawers with your bag on the side.

[Brett]

You got a sack on the side and a pant full of Little Debbies.

[Brady Bogan]

Back on December 27th, Jerome Gutierrez was traveling on business class on United Airlines 189from San Francisco to Manila, Philippines, according to his stepdaughter, that a man got up from his seat and began to piss on my dad. Whoa. My dad was asleep. He tells the story. He said, I was sleeping, and I thought it was part of my dream. I looked up, and then I realized I'm soaked from my stomach down in the man's urine. Oh, God. United flight attendants ask Gutierrez not to approach the man in fear that could get worse. Two hours into the flight, if that's.

[Brett]

His first move, what are you going to do when you start talking to him?

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah. And so he's upset at the airlines for not handling this because he said, you should turn this flight around and let me.

[Brett]

I think stewardesses should take care of.

[Brady Bogan]

The man, get him off the flight.

[Brett]

They should be armed with those little souvenir bats you get at baseball games at any given time and just beat you about the face and head if you start pissing on people. Yeah, a little bit.

[Brady Bogan]

Those little ones that extend.

[Brett]

Yeah. And it can't be stripped from them. Somehow or another, it's always attached like it's part of their uniform.

[John]

The one thing that they have is like miles of duct tape. Haven't we seen some of those where they duct tape the people to the.

[Brett]

Chair until the they got that. Here's a better idea. Make from their elbows down in their suits steel. That way nobody can steal it. And then you just start clubbing people with your forearm when they start peeing on other passengers.

[Brady Bogan]

So they dealt with the guy when the flight landed. He's been banned from United Airlines permanently. But during the flight, the crew provided Gutierrez with some replacement pajamas to wear.

[Brett]

Backup jammies. Yep, there were some whores on the flight, so they knew that whoring was possible on this United flight. They had some backup pants. If I was here and Brady came in like left and then came back in different pants, I'd send you home. I'm still upset about this. Oh, me and Al Franken from the other show were doing a little butt play in the bathroom. I got sloppy. We made a chocolate lebaron. Good thing I brought my backup pants.

[John]

What's the bathroom look like, Brady?

[Brett]

Oh, it's ugly. It's looks a little bit like somebody spilled a bunch of Guinness.

[Brady Bogan]

Augustus Gloom put up the chocolate label.

[Brett]

It was not good. It was bad. You should see Frank. And he's laying in it.

[Brady Bogan]

Oh, that's your peepee Poo poo news.

[Brett]

That didn't work. Had to push that one out. Mary Effing holidays from the big Red radio. Holmberg's morning sickness.

[Brady Bogan]

I'll end it with a quick smuggler's name.

[Brett]

She didn't really say that.

[Brady Bogan]

Hello, my friends, Brady Bogan here with stories about people getting busted with drugs, getting arrested. They call it the smuggler's news. This fourth on that one. This 43 year old inmate in Georgia was caught trying to smuggle multiple items in his rectum. This is quite the haul. Vape canisters, syringes, vape Cartridges, batteries and a cigarette lighter all up the sphincter. His name's Kenneth Gibbs. I got a mug shot of Kenny Gibbs trying to bring in. Kind of looks like our boy Kevin.

[Brett]

Meathead a little bit. I didn't shave all through the break and my hair got a little like that. It was pretty close to this. The guy's got. He's got the male pattern baldness and then the sides just grow straight out. By the way, I got an email that says I'm offended, Brett. It's not whoring. I carry backup panties all the time. And it's since I started dipping my chicken nuggets in Brady's giraffe sauce on Christy Hayden. It's too delicious. But the explosive diarrhea is hard to ignore.

[Brady Bogan]

That's your smuggler's. And now it's time for some science news. Hello, my friends, Professor Brady Bogan here with your science news. We finally know why urine is yellow.

[Brett]

We didn't know that until today.

[Brady Bogan]

Evidently.

[Brett]

All right.

[Brady Bogan]

A study at the University of Maryland found it gets its color from a specific enzyme created in our gut when the old red blood cells get broken down.

[Brett]

The old red blood cell.

[Brady Bogan]

The enzyme is called the bilirubin reductase.

[Brett]

You have no idea what you're saying.

[John]

That's also why it makes babies yellow.

[Brady Bogan]

We had to get.

[Brett]

Huh?

[Brady Bogan]

Jaundice. Jaundice.

[John]

Yeah. We had to get Alex a bilirubin's blanket.

[Brady Bogan]

The flu.

[Brett]

Because he had jaundice.

[John]

Yeah, he was. He had a little liver problem when he was.

[Brett]

No kidding.

[Brady Bogan]

Baby.

[Brett]

Bright yellow. Baby.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[Brett]

And that's what makes. So it makes babies and pee yellow.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[John]

You wrap them in this blanket.

[Brady Bogan]

That bilirubin reduction.

[Brett]

Adorable little blanket.

[Brady Bogan]

Yep.

[John]

Goable blanket.

[Brett]

That is a great band name. The bilirubin reductate. You gotta be like a barbershop quartet. That's not like a rock band. Hi. Where the Bella Rubin deductate. That old red blood cell. That old red blood cell.

[Brady Bogan]

Color corrected photos of Neptune. Of Neptune showed that it's true color for the first time ever this week. Experts thought it was more of a deep shade of blue. But it's a lighter shade than they thought.

[Brett]

So it's blue.

[Brady Bogan]

No joke.

[Brett]

The headline filtering now too. Lighter shade of blue.

[Brady Bogan]

Out of the Guardian. True blue. Neptune only slightly deeper color than Uranus. Say Oxford scientist.

[Brett]

What do you mean? The only people that are not a joke. It's not a joke. You're right. It's not a joke. That in there.

[Brady Bogan]

Come on. Let me Just read in the headline. Okay.

[Brett]

You were nearly 80 years old. Eventually the word Uranus should stop making you.

[Brady Bogan]

Never.

[Brett]

Just because you read it doesn't mean it. They must be kidding.

[Brady Bogan]

Nope.

[Brett]

They meant it. Yeah, because it's a name of something.

[John]

You search that every Friday. Headlines with Uranus in it.

[Brett]

Latest news on Uranus. Lesson Esman.

[Brady Bogan]

Right there.

[Brett]

There's more. Oh, yeah. More Brady, less Nessman.

[Brady Bogan]

The company Astrobotic is gearing up to launch its moon lander on Monday. And if you fill out a form on NASA's website, they'll put your name on the new moon rover they're sending up later this year.

[Brett]

Okay.

[Brady Bogan]

Neat. A study found humans can tell if a chicken is excited or upset based on the sound of its clucks or its taste. It's upset.

[Brett]

This one was pretty upset.

[Brady Bogan]

A little gamey. It was a little upset.

[Brett]

I like them when they're afraid. But not upset.

[Brady Bogan]

Google accidentally might have proved there's a multiverse. Cool. That our universe is just one of many. Their new quantum computing chip did a calculation in five minutes that would take a supercomputer 10, septillion years. So their post about it said it exceeds known time scales and physics so that quantum computation might occur in many parallel universes.

[Brett]

You have no idea what you just said. I don't know what he said either.

[Brady Bogan]

And it could be evidence. We live in a multiverse and my brain is broken.

[Brett]

He had his finger in the air making that point. And all of us were staring at him going. I know you don't know what you're saying.

[John]

Not just with him, but what is the purpose of putting your finger shut up like that?

[Brett]

Tell you to shut up?

[John]

Is that what that is?

[Brett]

You put your hand up to go. You shut up like this is me. Put my finger over your lips. But I can't. I can't do it without getting punched. And I won't touch you do it from a distance. Social distancing. Shut ups.

[Brady Bogan]

I know about the multiverse is from Loki.

[John]

Right?

[Brett]

Right. That's all anyone knows of the multiverse. Brady. Not one person outside of a real science guy doesn't know it might be real. But as far as the Quantum Marvel version. Right. That's not real. But there are other universes and very possibly running simultaneously the exact same thing that's going on here. That doesn't strike me as impossible.

[Brady Bogan]

Google also unveiled a new AI agent that can use apps and websites on its own. Opened AI OpenAI. Sorry. Released a new AI video generator called Sora. Oh no.

[John]

Am I going to have to start using that now?

[Brett]

Video AI.

[Brady Bogan]

And I think we knew this. Apple's newest version of Siri has chat.

[Brett]

GPT. Yep.

[Brady Bogan]

In space news, a 10 year study found.

[John]

Don't do it.

[Brady Bogan]

Uranus has changed dramatically.

[Brett]

I thought we were gonna get through the end.

[Brady Bogan]

Over the past 10 years it's gotten brighter.

[Brett]

Here it comes.

[Brady Bogan]

No.

[Brett]

Next story.

[Brady Bogan]

I got Hindenburg news. Okay.

[Brett]

What I've been waiting for.

[Brady Bogan]

Traveling around and the massive air balloons might be making a comeback. They're better for the environment than planes. And using helium instead of hydrogen would make it safer.

[John]

Thunberg news.

[Brett]

Nobody's doing this.

[Brady Bogan]

They're a lot slower than planes. But several companies have plans in the works to offer them as a new travel option. Basically flying cruise ships.

[Brett]

Nope. The bus of the air. It's not flying a cruise ship because it doesn't take. It's a train in the sky. And it takes days for a boat to go somewhere. But you stop every once in a while. That's what they'll do. No, they won't. Where are you going to go in the. In a blimp? That would be better than driving.

[Brady Bogan]

You can go to town here.

[Brett]

Right. But why in the world would you. Why would I. Why would I take. Right. Why would I take slow boats to Denver and then to luxurious accommodation? No. It's not drive and I can stay in resorts or something like that. You sound excited about it.

[John]

Would you do it?

[Brett]

Yeah, I would do it.

[Brady Bogan]

What?

[Brett]

So. So slower and less convenient.

[Brady Bogan]

I'd have to see the setup.

[Brett]

Slower and less convenient is never a thing. Never. Yeah. Where's the kitchen? What are the odds? This thing turning into a fireball? No. Slower and inconvenient are not the future.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[John]

You said they're safer. Is there zero chance of fireballing it?

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[Brett]

With helium there's always a chance of fireballing something.

[John]

I thought we had no helium left.

[Brady Bogan]

Didn't George.

[Brett]

Yeah. They were talking about. We were out. Didn't Party City have a big thing a couple years ago?

[John]

Can't get those balloons again.

[Brady Bogan]

They found. They found more helium.

[Brett]

You go ahead and invest in that.

[Brady Bogan]

There we go.

[Brett]

You.

[Brady Bogan]

You.

[Brett]

Yeah. You invested in Altoona, Iowa.

[Brady Bogan]

A big pocket was found.

[Brett]

We've got a big plan here to get slower and less convenient. America. That sounds great. But the accommodations are amazing. So you can fly from here to Boulder in a day. You drive there in 12 hours. But you could do it in a day.

[John]

Set jet. CEO says yeah.

[Brett]

No airport will take you. You're Going to be landing in the middle of a field. You got to Uber into Repel Down. It's a nightmare. I don't think they're gonna make it.

[Brady Bogan]

I might be in on that.

[Brett]

I'd like to see those fat people.

[Brady Bogan]

Falling out of the sky. That's your science news.

[Brett]

It's a terrible idea. And I hope it takes. Do you. Yeah.

[John]

Because you want to see him crash.

[Brett]

It's the.

[Brady Bogan]

Would you do it?

[Brett]

No. It's the Delorean of the sky. It's just a guaranteed failure look.

[John]

It's got gull wings.

[Brett]

Yep. And it would be just hilarious to watch it. Look at all those big fat dummies slowly floating over me. Ever seen one of those over a sporting event?

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[Brett]

And then after a while you're like, that thing is barely moving, like, 38 miles an hour when they're here.

[Brady Bogan]

I went over by one just to see it up. It was. It was smaller than I thought. But there's only two, maybe four people in that little.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[John]

Because they had drags out here. And then like a week later was the Super Bowl. So that one stayed in town for, like, a week.

[Brett]

I don't remember which one. Olympic Travel.

[Brady Bogan]

The Allstate one or whatever.

[Brett]

Can we come up with jet packs and, like, floating cars before we go back to blimps? Well, they had Casa Lander in LA doing it. Yeah. Last year. And I got a jetpack out of. Coming out of Pacoima or something. And it's like cruising around. Work on the technology to jetpack me. Don't put me on a blimp with more people.

[Brady Bogan]

We haven't heard from or seen him.

[Brett]

That's true.

[John]

Or he's working on his next point.

[Brett]

That could be, too. The last thing I. Not a blimp is.

[Brady Bogan]

Right.

[Brett]

We just talked about the bus being a disaster. The last thing. I want us to pile into a bubble in the sky more. Give me some independent travel. Give me my own blimp. People like my own independent. Like Jetson's car. Let's get forward thinking. Not slower and less convenient.

[John]

If the Spirit Air stock hasn't taken enough of a dive. John. Now they're using their bankruptcy money to get blimps.

[Brett]

There's a future in blimpery. No, there's not. But think about it. I mean, are you going to fly JSX to Vegas or a blimp? A diable. Yeah. Never could ride my bike there faster.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah. I don't think they have it for stops like that. It's like seeing Europe. So you travel overnight, but you'd still be. Yeah, you travel overnight real quick to. You know.

[Brett]

But Europe, you don't need to travel overnight. Everything's like a half hour away.

[Brady Bogan]

Well, just like. Well, true. It'd be less than that. But some of the places where you could go further, like a cruise ship.

[Brett]

Take a plane port. If you're not porting every 12 hours, you're gonna hate that boat. So if you've got a. And then you gotta port a blimp, forget it. Take a cruise. They're more convenient. They're faster. If some guy came in here and asked us for money. Look, I got an idea. I need some investors. And he pulled the sheet of the future is dirigibles. Be like this guy's out of his mind. You're gonna lose all your money.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see if these two companies.

[Brett]

Jetpacks get on the jetpack thing.

[John]

John, can you ask Brady what would win in a race between a manatee and a blimp?

[Brett]

That's a good question.

[Brady Bogan]

Blimp.

[Brett]

You think so?

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah.

[John]

Faster than 22 miles an hour.

[Brett]

Yeah, I think they're faster.

[Brady Bogan]

It depends on the wind.

[Brett]

But not in the water.

[Brady Bogan]

Yeah, that'd be tough.

[Brett]

Well, no, no, Brady, don't. Don't put your heels in on that one. No. Oh, you missed the manatee versus Michael Phelps talk. Oh, man. Yeah, one. Of course. You guess who's faster swimming a manatee or Michael Felt Manatee. Thank you. Brady. Tried to.

[Brady Bogan]

Why?

[Brett]

Yeah, because it's a fish. Thank you.

[Brady Bogan]

It is a mammal. Okay.

[Brett]

It's a water. It's a water based. It's a fish and a mammal. There are more mammal fish than there are mammals running around on the plan on the ground made. Look, I'm with Brett on the fish. Don't care if it's a mammal or not. It's a fish.

[Brady Bogan]

Let's get to some radio videos.

[Brett]

And fish are all faster than us in the water. Don't start that. Did you see him look at the ceiling tiles when he said to blimp in the water? Well, maybe prop up.

[John]

Let me double check my mind here.

[Brett]

It's full of helium. It might. No. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station. He said fully erected.
