Do not listen to this while driving.
Brett Vesely
Or when full alertness is needed.
Radio Station Announcer
The rest of Holmberg's morning sickness. This is the big red radio.
John Holmberg
And.
Dennis
I got this other story I saw.
John Holmberg
Yesterday on the BBC.
Dennis
You know, we're in an age now where people just. I think it has changed and it might be Internet related but like they never used to celebrate hot grandmas on tv. My grandma, as it turns out, looking back in time, was young. I'm pretty sure that when I was in my, you know, 7, 8, 9, when I, when I was hanging around grandma the most, probably 5, 6, 7, she was like 48 years old. Not hot grandma.
John Holmberg
Oh yeah.
Dennis
And you know what's funny? When she was 84 and passed away, she looked exactly the same as she did when I remembered her as a little kid. Like everybody always, oh, you've never changed. She grew into being in her 80s. She always looked like grandma had the grandma blouse and the black grandma pants. The. I don't know where you get those, but they're every day. I think she had those on and they never had stains. They weren't nice, but they weren't ugly. They could be. They could pass as sweatpants or dress pants. I don't know where grandma's shop, but they go to a special store with all of them. Have that weird pair of black. They're stretchy, but they're. They're durable. I don't know, but she had those every picture.
Byron
Like golfing pants and stuff. Babu never pants.
Dennis
Never wore pants. That's hot.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
She was a dresser.
Byron
Just anseless dress.
John Holmberg
Really?
Byron
Yep.
Dennis
Nice.
John Holmberg
Well, that's another one.
Dennis
There you go.
Byron
The same thing. The polyester blend or whatever.
Dennis
My other grandma only wore dresses. Yeah, and I don't understand, like only dresses, but they weren't. They were grandma dresses. She never looked nice. She was just always in her grandma dress. Even when she did try to look nice, she just put like a flower on that same dress. Now I'm on this thing and super fit grandma. I'm like, oh, no. She said, this is the headline. I don't think this headline ever used to exist. Once the word grandma was involved, they'd be like, nobody needs to know this. Here's the headline. Super fit grandma has slept with over 800 lovers.
Byron
Come on.
Dennis
Was a hoe. And then you look at her and you're like, God damn, can I be 801? This is a super fit grandma. I mean, this is a smoking hot granny. I mean, Elizabeth Hurley is a pig compared to.
Brett Vesely
That's her fans only page.
Dennis
No kidding. You got abs and muscles and look at that. Super hot grandma.
Byron
Not bad.
Dennis
It's a body on that thing. No, of course that's gold. It's expired. And she's. She like, look, I'm keeping this expiration date going. She's got some formaldehyde in that milk and it's, it's, it's staying alive. But, but in the article they mention says she has two adult children. Her fit physique turns men on and says that people who message her are usually just in love with her immediately. Her relationships never last very long. She spends hours in the gym every week to keep up her appearance and enjoys naked yoga around the house. Now think of your grandma while I read this. No, of course you don't want to do that.
John Holmberg
Nobody's grand.
Dennis
Nobody needs the word. A grandma. She's just a good looking woman. Why do we have to throw the word grandma? So she told the reporter that she gets inundated with messages where she has 513,000 followers and it gets bizarre requests. She got £50,000 from a British man who said, well, can I watch you shave it? And she goes, £50,000, I'm doing that. That's like 70 grand American. But then the inevitable part comes in. Her grandson's fairly uncomfortable with this talk of her. Of course he is. Nobody wants to think of grandma rolled into the mix. Good lord.
Byron
How old is she?
Dennis
48?
John Holmberg
51.
Byron
51.
Dennis
She's from Brazil, but she lives in London now and has had a lifestyle change since her marriage ended 19 years ago. I have a theory about this. 19 years ago she got divorced. So 19 years ago she was 31, 33. So glamorous. Grandma says now after marriage, sex is her fuel and she dates three to five times a week, both men and women. And then her grandson gets involved in the article somehow by saying, well, I'm not all that comfortable with this. I already received a marriage proposal from an Irishman offering me 200 goats on his farm if I'd move up there, which is insane. A man wanted to see me shave myself, but I have to show my face in the video. I did it for 50.50k. Her 9 year old grandson is, quote, a little shy when it comes to talking about her. He's not very comfortable as he's a boy. That has nothing to do with it. But all my family are very proud about having a fitness grant. Now think of your grandmother. Three to five times a week, she's with men, she's with women, she's shaving her stuff for dude, for 50k. This is a new phenomenon. This is a 2020s thing. I don't know when grandmas started to become like, I blame Oprah and I also blame whatever that marriage was 19 years ago. When she bailed out on that thing in her early 30s, that dude turned her into this. This is a revenge lifestyle because marriage broke up 19 years ago and she's.
John Holmberg
Still talking about it.
Dennis
I don't know. I don't know when that happened, but she's still sitting there thinking to herself, okay, when I was married, once I got divorced, sex became my fuel. This is all to get back at that guy. That's all this is.
Byron
Gotta be. Good point.
Dennis
He did something that. That look how good life is.
John Holmberg
Right.
Dennis
Clicked her brain into this weird thing. And she's like, oh, yeah, my guess is he probably was hosing a friend of hers or something like that. And then she's like, ah, is that sex is the enemy and I'll show him. And yeah. Cause grandma's 51 year old. Grandmas usually by then are pretty much like, yeah, I'm in great shape and I look good, but I'm not gonna tell you I had sex with 800 different dudes and some guy in England. She's doing that in case the ex. She's still hung up on the guy 19 years ago. There's no even. There's no real reason to mention that she's been divorced 19 years. She brings it up three times in.
Brett Vesely
The article, battery turned into a twink after her. And then she's just.
Dennis
There's that. Hadn't thought of that. The ex announced, you know what? I like men. You don't do anything for me. And she's like, oh, so she uses sex as a weapon. She's weaponized. Payback time. That's exactly right. Sex and looking great as a weapon. Or he told her, you know, you're a little bit thick for me.
Byron
You're not.
John Holmberg
She could have been right.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dennis
She might have been a little fat. And she's like, oh. And then every. And I'm not attracted to you. I don't want to have sex with you. And it turned her into this monster.
Byron
Nobody does.
Dennis
I don't want anybody to email me either and go, dude, my grandma's smoking hot too. Nobody wants their grandma to be hot. If you are a grandma and you're a little bit sexy. Stop it. Just knock it off. That's not your job anymore. You're not allowed to do that. But I'm still a human being with needs. Yep. And you get those needs in those weird polyester pants with a vibrator. And the guy you married that barely gets it done anymore. That's it.
Commercial Announcer
You realize enough years have passed.
Dennis
Yeah.
Commercial Announcer
That we have four. Off the top of my head, former.
Dennis
MILF champions that are grandmas.
Byron
That are grandmas.
Dennis
And I never want to see them again.
Commercial Announcer
That are grandmas.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
I barely wanted to see them as milfs.
Byron
That's the mindset that my grandma, the first time I met her, she was 70, right?
Dennis
Yours, right?
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
My grandma, whenever my memories of grandma, she's younger than everyone in the room. Right now.
Byron
I know that's why.
Dennis
But mentally that woman recognized I am a grandmother. The role I play now is this weird flowery shirt that you only get at the grandma shop. And the pants. And the other grandma was just this. I don't know if that was tweed or burlap. I don't know. Her dresses were awful. And hugging her was like hugging a Berber carpet. Like the. The dress was. That's grandma.
Commercial Announcer
It was itchy.
Dennis
Now that Isabelle was old, they had my dad when they were in there, like Brady. They were in their 40s and my dad was late. My mom, I think she showed up when My grandma was 18. And then my mom had a kid when she was 21. No, she was 18. Cycle continued. So holy cow. That means that she had me when My grandma was 40. So my grandma was only like 45 when I first. When I first start remembering, like actually like 42 or 3 when I first really remember some stuff. 45 when there were conversations.
Commercial Announcer
And you always picture her old.
Dennis
She's always 80. Always. She's never. Not always.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
And the last thing I'd need is my grandma showing up after a vigorous sit up workout telling me that she's gonna go smash clams with some other broad tonight. And by the way, you're gonna read about me in the newspaper about how I smash clams with people three, five times a week. Why are you doing this, grandma? You're. You think they think your ex husband did damage to you? Think of what you're doing to that poor grandson. That this is an international story picked up by the Daily sun in London and I'm reading it in Phoenix. What are you doing to that? But now I'm talking about it here. So I'm telling hundreds of thousands of people immediately that they've got this guy.
Commercial Announcer
It'll really hit him in another three, four years. When he hit in your high high school. Whatever they have.
Brett Vesely
Well, when he's on pornhub and finds his grandma, worse still.
Dennis
What's your last name again? Oh, it's Bickley. Your grand's not named Sarah, is it? Yeah, it's my gran.
John Holmberg
Hey mate, I your gran.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Oh no.
Dennis
Oh wait. Is this Sarah Bickley's boy grandson?
John Holmberg
Hey, I your gran too.
Guest / Strom Thurman
So did I. Everyone in here is your grand.
Dennis
You don't need to tell the news. Hot grandma. That's a band name. That's not a thing. Hot grandma's funny, but it's not real gross. Don't do that. You have bed. What was your name? For your grandma. Just call her Grandma. Just Grandma?
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Dennis
You didn't have the ninny and happy grandma name.
Byron
It was just Grandma.
Dennis
Grandma. That was mine. Mine was Grandma and the other one was Ammaw. But I just called her Grandma. That's close enough. That's because my sister was stupid and couldn't say grandma and that turned into Meemaw because it always does in Indiana. But I just called her Grandma. And she actually asked me once.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Dennis John, why don't you call me Amma?
Dennis
Because it sounds like I've got a speech impediment. Why would I do that? I say, but where does Grandma. And also I'm. I'm old now.
Guest / Strom Thurman
It's my special name.
Dennis
Grandma. I'm the only one doing it. Consider that special. I have to go do some sit ups cause I'm taking two cranks tonight on the Internet. Oh, thanks.
John Holmberg
Bye.
Dennis
Hot Grandma. Also in her 40s, my grandma before she had all these grandkids.
Byron
Please call me Hot Cheerleader.
Dennis
Yeah, call me Hot Shirley.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Dennis, Dan, I gotta take a bunch of dicks tonight. Call me Hot Shirley. Ah.
Dennis
What is it, Grandma? I'm just worn out. What happened?
John Holmberg
I just got so hard last night.
Dennis
Oh, thanks, Hot Grandma. Hey, I saw you on the news last night, flashing your abs and talking about how you've been with 800 people since you left. Grandpa, can we settle her down a little bit here? I've got school tomorrow and this isn't easy for me.
Byron
How would you interview the grandson on this?
Dennis
Why even bring him up? They didn't interview him. She talked about it. He's shy cause he's a boy. No, he's shy cause his grandma's a whore. Stop, everybody. She looks great though.
Brett Vesely
How old is she again?
Dennis
51. My age. Got a nine year old grandson. Why is your head always down, honey? Cause my grandma's a whore. She's on the news a lot. Some guy in Phoenix was talking about her.
Brett Vesely
Oh, I saw your grandma getting railed.
Dennis
By Lex Steele online.
John Holmberg
Dude.
Dennis
Right? Oh, now does it happen? Yes. Do you lead with Grandma? No. Gross. Now everybody out there, close your eyes for a second. Even if you're driving and think of grandma doing sit ups. It's horrifying.
Byron
Not more than 10 seconds.
Dennis
No, no, no, no, no. If you look, you'd be better off crashing a car into a pole than thinking of grandma doing sit ups. Izzy and Shirley holding each other's feet doing sit ups just so they could clam smash later. That's the worst thought on the planet. That's not how humans work. We gotta get back to some sort of everybody goes back in their box thing. You could be in shape, but you can't go telling the news. Oh yeah. Not only am I in shape, I got a nine year old grandson and I like a teenager. Great, thanks. Go make a casserole or some cookies or something. Put together some sort of a present no one wants. Where is my package of McDonald's gift cards? From you? That's what you do as a grandma. I don't. You know the checkbook from McDonald's you used to get from grandma that was kind of neat, but at the same time cost grandma five bucks. She got away with one. Not a picture of her. This is me with the owner of the New England Patriots. I him last night. Thanks, grandma. I got it autographed. Awesome. Now the autograph's ruined because all I'm thinking about is you doing sit ups and pounding away. If you're a grandma and you're still doing sit ups, keep it to yourself. Quietly Naked yoga. Okay, do it again. Close your eyes. Drivers, everybody close your eyes. Take your hands off the wheel and just cross your arms because it doesn't matter anymore. And picture grandma doing hot yoga naked.
Brett Vesely
They give her name?
Dennis
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Let's find her Instagram.
Dennis
You find her Instagram. Look, I want to. Her name is Andrea Sunshine.
Brett Vesely
Of course it is.
Dennis
Of course it is. Grandma Sunshine. Andrea Sunshine. Yeah, she. But she. She kept saying I swapped the married life for this lifestyle. That whatever that dude did was a number on her and she had messed her up. I get divorced 19 years ago and live a lifestyle that way. She looks good, man. A bodybuilder like big grandma's son.
Byron
Your peers, basically. That's why it's a change. We graduated so much. Things have changed.
John Holmberg
Well, I am, but we don't need it to change.
Dennis
Like I'm. I agree that this look. Her face still looks like a little bit messy. There's some. There's grandma doing sit ups and it's even a good looking grandma doing sit ups is bad. Oh God. She's dressed kind of man. She's got. Well, she's kind of dude's face got a grandma face. She's trying to cover up aging.
Brett Vesely
She's got old lady hands too.
Dennis
She does have old lady hands. I just saw that too in the last pic. But she does not have an old lady's ass. What a mental basket case sexy grandma is. There's. It's cold in there. She's doing some lunges. And that's a hot grandma, though. Quit saying you're a grandma. Just be hot. Oh, she's taking her shirt off, for crying out loud. Making me think of that poor 9 year old shy kid. Grandma got some new pictures. You want to see him? Oh, yeah.
Byron
Where were you?
Dennis
You and your friends over there playing bingo. Oh, no, this is you getting at the gym. God damn it. Grandma licking her biceps. I went to. Oh, there's a package in it. Oh, how about that thing when grandma does a squat? There's a. An Arby's roast beef sandwich in those. Lululemon.
John Holmberg
She has a grandma. She's a grandma.
Dennis
Of course there is.
Byron
She is yoked.
Dennis
When that thing reveals itself, it's gonna. Oh, it's gonna be big. Oh, Grandma. Naked grandma. I think I'm more upset at the fact that I get a little bit chunky looking at it. Except for her face. And there she is with some guy. Looks like one of the 800. Yeah, she's on the list.
Byron
I think that's was 798.
Dennis
Epstein was right there. I'm pretty sure that's him. Oh, my grandma would show pictures of her and my grandpa at a restaurant that was just over the Indiana, Illinois border. It was terrible. But they drive there every once in a while for food and they take a photo of each other and that was the only picture they ever had. Never once did my grandma throw her ass in the air and take her shirt off and snap a shot on the beach of Cedar Lake. Please. Surely, you know, I'm like, my grandma understood her role in life. I'm a grandmother. I can't embarrass the family anymore.
Brett Vesely
It's a little crazy with like.
Dennis
Or the.
Brett Vesely
The lip injections there.
Dennis
Oh, yeah, no, she's. She's trying to. She's still getting back at the guy.
Brett Vesely
I mean, great bod, but she's got the face of John J.
Dennis
Face of John Jay is a great band name. The face of John Jay is a great band name.

Super genius.
Byron
I think he was referring to Dick Tracy.
John Holmberg
Ah, yes, a super sleuth. Well said, Bernie. Wow. A good comeback for Super Genius. By the way, Bo's mother. Ooh, Bo. Touchy. Hitting a nerve with his mother, evidently.
Byron

Byron
That is incorrect. What? Yeah, I am sorry. Shenanigans.
John Holmberg
Yes. You read that?
Byron
I must have read the lyrics. Not clearly.
John Holmberg
All right, what was the answer?
Byron
Girls, girls, girls. Motley Crue.
John Holmberg
Isn't that what I said? No.
Byron
Oh, let me review the audio.
John Holmberg
Come on. Yes, it was very close, but it's zero. Zero still. And actually, we'll give that one to you because Super Genius missed it. It's one nothing to Alan.
Byron
Alan, this CBS Sports reporter is fired after making disparaging remarks about African American.
John Holmberg
Super genius, Jimmy the Greek.
Byron
Splendid answer, super genius.
John Holmberg
One to one, Allen. Nice try. Try to remain as quiet as possible through the game, Alan. You're doing well.
Byron
This Philadelphia 76er wins his second consecutive National Basketball Association Most Valuable Player award in the 80s 76ers super genius.
John Holmberg
I will say Julius Irving.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Oh.
John Holmberg
Or Moses Malone.
Dennis
Correct.
John Holmberg
Moses Malone.
Dennis
No.
John Holmberg
Did suck that time. Alan, I have something in my ear. I apologize. It was lap dog's job to clean out my ear. Tell Brady to get it out of your ear. Exactly. Lap dog was supposed to get that goo out of my ear.
Byron
Here's a Q tip, super genius.
John Holmberg
Thank you, Lap Dog. Please hold. You've won, Alan. Somehow, in a shenanigans riddled second round, you're two for two. Oh, and this person say you only batting.500. Hyler, would you like to take on Super Genius? Oh, of course. What's your name?
Dennis
Jesse.
John Holmberg
Jesse.
Dennis
Here we go.
John Holmberg
Lap dog. Ask Jesse some questions.
Byron
Jesse. The newly released movie stars Goldie Hawn, Nipsey Russell, and John and Jan Hooks and features characters Bird, Finch and True Mane.
John Holmberg
No idea. Come on, you don't even know this. Super Genius. You don't know this either. Yes, I do, Bobo. Well, if you can answer it, I'll give it to the contestant.
Dennis
Bird on a wire.
Byron
Wildcats.
John Holmberg
That's what I was going to say. Why didn't you give me a chance?
Byron
Shenanigans.
John Holmberg
Thank you. One to nothing, contestant. Although it's not fair. It's Bo's answer. I should get something.
Dennis
Too bad.
John Holmberg
I should get it. Okay. Yeah, that's okay.
Byron
This newly released movie starring Julia Roberts contains the line, I would rather have 30 minutes of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special.
John Holmberg
That would be Super Genius.
Byron
Super Genius.
John Holmberg
Pretty Woman.
Byron
Sorry, Super Genius.
John Holmberg
He has lost three times today. No, I haven't. Lap Dog, you're an idiot. Bo, you're the new host of Super Genius.
Dennis
Please hold.
John Holmberg
Contestant. What's going on here?
Byron
That's right.
John Holmberg
Three times he goes down today. Ah. I know why I've been so stupid. My headphones are piping in kdkb, that's why. Been listening to helium hilarity all morning. Anyone would go lame on that. Okay, Super Genius has to go. I love it when Super Genius loses.

It's the best of Homburg's morning sickness.
John Holmberg
Just outside our door, the great Dr. Stephen Hawking. Stephen, come on in.
Byron
Rolling, rolling, rolling. Welcome, doctor.
John Holmberg
Keep rolling. Rolling, rolling. Didn't as good being here. And nice to see you all again.
Commercial Announcer
Throw out some limp biscuits.
John Holmberg
Good little biscuit for you all to enjoy for yourselves and for the rest of your day.
Byron
You look great.
John Holmberg
I feel terrible, Brady. I'm not doing as well as I look. Oh, I was going to do some wheeling Abercrombie and fish modeling later than today, but they don't have pants that fit me. They're all too tight and I weigh 11 pounds. They made a joke and didn't laugh.
Byron
That was a good one.
John Holmberg
Thank you, Brody. How are you doing, Birdie? Are you saving enough for food for anyone else? No, not at all. Are you going to start breaking crime?
Byron
Yeah, yeah, I like to break crime.
John Holmberg
I'm going to start stealing because chubby people can get away with it.
Byron
That's right.
Commercial Announcer
Don't throw food at him.
John Holmberg
This is not how I eat, Brady. I'm not a Zoom animal.
Byron
Come on. You could chew.
John Holmberg
Nope. Do you see that? Dude, please get that out of my mouth immediately. I will choke death if you don't dissolve it into some sort of liquid. Is everyone ready for a trip to Mars? Oh, yeah. Derek, you are the first volunteer.
Dennis
What? Why me?
John Holmberg
Because I wrote your name on the sheet that said. Who is the first volunteer? I gladly wrote down Eric o'. Connell.
Byron
I'm not big on the first Mars monkey.
John Holmberg
I summon every muscle I have left in my body to write your name. I'm not good with heights. I don't know if that'd be a good thing for me to fly up in a rocket ship.
Byron
We can make it smaller. Spaceship.
John Holmberg
Despite being completely physical, incapable of moving. I still have better handwriting than you do.
Byron
Good one.
John Holmberg
Thank you, Brady. That's good stuff. I'll be here all week.
Dennis
Hilarious.
John Holmberg
I liked your movie Theory of Everything. It's a very good movie. Eddie Redmayne did a great job impersonating me.
Byron
How about your wife? Was that a pretty good impression of your wife too?
John Holmberg
The first few minutes of it I was fooled. Then later when she became a. I remembered why we are no longer together and I wanted to throw her into a black hole. How's your wife?
Byron
Really good.
John Holmberg
Never mind. I already know.
Byron
Another good one. Doc.
John Holmberg
Something smells good in here. It isn't Toledo's coffee breath. Happy coffee. Dayton Birchard. Very nice of you to do to a sick man.
Byron
You could weld with that.
John Holmberg
That's a jerk move right there. He would fight you. But it wouldn't fair.
Commercial Announcer
Hey flinch.
John Holmberg
That. That, that. No one has ever had the courage to try the hey Flinch game with me. Thank you for making me feel like a hillbilly for a few minutes.
Byron
You win every time.
John Holmberg
I have never lost the hey Flinch game. It is where I have made most of my money. Not the lotto?
Dennis
Nope.
John Holmberg
That and Snapshot at the bar. Let's go to the phone and find out who is an earthling that wants to go to Mars. Blind one and Steve. We share a similar name. Imagine that.
Byron
Who's smarter?
Dennis
He is.
John Holmberg
That is correct. I got one question right already. You've already gone further than Eric in this game button. Do you think your IQ is probably about 120? It's officially 74. I can tell over the phone whenever you say the word. It should be VD in the front of it. Dumb.
Byron
Another good one, doc.
John Holmberg
Game be rolling. Pardon the pun. Are you ready to play in this space game? Oh yeah. I will give you the quote from a movie. You can tell me the space movie that the quote is from. Are you ready? Yep. Too much garbage in your space. There isn't plenty of space out in space. Eva. Eva.
Byron

John Holmberg
Milk and day. Let me turn on my drama charm. Too much garbage in your face. There isn't plenty of space out in space. Eva.
Byron
That was. That just gave it away, that last read. Come on, Steve.
John Holmberg

Yes, I am right now actually. You are just showing off. How about your cans? Are they upright or are they now sagging Like a woman who is tortured by the horrors of aging. I just want to know if I can answer the last question. Question? That's all up to you now, isn't it? Go ahead and try to answer the last question. The movie is Wall E. Wall E is correct. Now you have to answer a question. Song lyrics from space. Okay, are you ready? Okay, here we go. Rocket. I'm taking a rocket I'm packing my suitcase didn't look out moon rocket into outer space.

Byron
That was good advice.
John Holmberg
Good advice always. And enjoy walking. When you think things are bad, think of me with my picket fence teeth and inability to get out of this chair. How are you, John? Good. How are you doing? No, well, not so good. Why? Just cuz you're handicapped. This is more than handicapped. This isn't really bad. Yeah, it's getting pretty bad.
Byron
Here's a toothpick.
John Holmberg
It sounds a little Indian, but there's no reason to judge. Dick. It took me a second to spell that with my eyes. This is like the smartest man on Earth. Yeah. Don't be a dick to him. What does that mean? That an Indian couldn't be smartest man on Earth? No, absolutely not. Eric is a dick. Alright, here's a quiz for you. What planet is 1410-006001-41600,000,000 miles from Earth?
Byron
Uranus.
John Holmberg
Incorrect. That wouldn't be the home for Retarded people where you will soon live. It is called Mars. Oh, ouch.
Byron
Man, that was a softball.
John Holmberg
Yeah. Franklin, are you there? Yeah, Frank. Mar you upright? Yes. Okay. How long have you been standing?

Byron
Do you feel like you're throwing some softballs?
John Holmberg
I have some softballs.
Commercial Announcer
Throw one.
John Holmberg
I wouldn't like to be able to throw it to you, but. And I can't.
Byron
Hey, Flinch.
John Holmberg
How in the world doesn't this man hear Indians?
Byron
Well, maybe he's got a gift.
John Holmberg
Something is wrong with his ears. Deaton does not hear from the Indians correctly. Didn't this is what they sound like to him. We'll meet into the phone. Giblet in on the line. Hello, Giblet. How's it going? Mr. Hawking didn't going well. Wouldn't you like to go dancing with me? Sure. Okay, you lead.
Byron

John Holmberg
I wanted my first time to be special.
Dennis
That was good.
John Holmberg
I saw the guy in a wheelchair getting told what to do today. And I told him, don't you hate being pushed around? Dot, dot, dot. Bully. Call it the hunch, but I'm pretty sure that I have an abnormal convex curvature of my spine that. That, that. Come over tonight and straighten that out for you. You're the winner, Alan.

Byron

Dennis
Yeah. And then they put them through this machine and they. They shave them down, make them the same shape. It's like Cheetos.
John Holmberg
It's.
Dennis
I don't know why it's disappointing to me. I wanted to plant baby carrots at the house. I was like, I'm gonna.
Byron
You kept looking for the seeds.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Dennis
Well, I don't know if you do seeds or what. I'm, you know, partially serious about it because I get these ideas sometimes to plant food and then I do it. One time I tried peppers, and I put peppers in the same garden thing as what else was in there. It was like a cucumber thing and then like. Like green peppers, yellow peppers and. No, it's like. It was a little cucumber kind of baby cucumber garden.
Byron
Okay.
Dennis
So I just had this box and put it on it. And I didn't realize that when the dirt's all the same, the trees get confused and start just doing whatever they want. I had this island of Dr. Moreau Vegetable thing where these green and yellow peppers were growing with the strangest cucumber flavor you've ever. It was so gross.
John Holmberg
Some of it was hot.
Dennis
It was just weird. But they all kind of just go, you know? And then I realized, you got to do better job. And I'm like, well, I'll just do one thing in the box and baby carrots. It's a small garden box. I'm like, that'd be a good idea. And I'll go find some baby carrots. One of these. And I just. Just this morning, reading them, I was very upset. It was like, baby carrots aren't a thing. That's a. They're Cheetos. They're basically. They're man made.
Byron
It's not designer. Designer carrots.
Dennis
Yeah. That's not right.
Brett Vesely
So you didn't go to the store and could I get baby carrot seeds, please?
Dennis
No, no, I want a tip top or whatever. I would have gone over to Barrage or Tip top or someplace and said, hey, where you guys hiding the baby carrots? Because I've looked everywhere. What are you talking about? Baby carrots. You know, little baby carrots, everybody. They're amazing bags of them.
Byron
You run into a guy that's really tiny. I work In a baby carrot?
Dennis
Yeah. Well, follow me. He takes me to the carrots. He goes, you do the work. I'm like, well, that's upsetting. I thought this was. It's just. It was an inconvenient thing. It's very strange. I don't like that. I. I feel duped. I feel like a fool. They're just not.
Byron
So I gotta figure the.
Dennis
Really.
Byron
You know, when they make the baby carrots, they gotta do both to the shredded carrots.
Dennis
Well, shredded carrots I knew weren't growing anyway.
Byron
I know, but I'd have to be.
Dennis
A pretty big idiot to just realize that there isn't a field of shredded carrots somewhere. You'd have to be a. To have that thinking that I'm just.
Byron
Saying to the practicality of the reason. If they're making the baby carrots, they've got to be doing shredded too, because you're taking so much carrot away in order to make them.
Dennis
Oh yeah, Brady. That makes sense.
Brett Vesely
Go easy on Brady. He's not a vest.
Byron
You don't want to wait.
Dennis
That's true. That's right.
John Holmberg
Well, I know.
Dennis
I'm not even talking about the waste. Of course they're utilizing the rest of the carrot. You don't understand what I'm upset about. That there is a rest of the carrot. That I thought some little tiny handed like slave baby somewhere was pulling baby carrots out of the ground. Just getting big people hands. Probably Asians, I'm guessing. Most likely a farm. A bunch of Asians with their tiny hands pulling little tiny carrots out of the earth. Or like they grow like strawberries or something. I didn't know. And now I'm upset about it. And I don't know why it bothers me. It's because it'll never end. It's just not a thing in your mind.
Byron
They're like. They taste so, so much better.
Dennis
No, I wasn't an idiot. I'm not the dumbest person. This is just a dumb moment. I'm not the dumbest man alive. Yeah, I'd have to be pretty stupid. Where's the salad fields? No, I know that lettuce comes in a ball and then you pull it apart. I'm not. Maybe a little. I'm not alone.
Byron
Baby spinach matter with you?
Dennis
What aren't you getting about that again? He's not a vegetable guy. It's true this John. Thanks this morning with your morning wood. Or thanks for the morning wood with your voice. I was about to start tugging, but as soon as I Heard Brett and Brady, boner gone.
Brett Vesely
You're welcome.
Dennis
P. S. Don't have kids, Israel. All right? Not the country. The whole country just emailed me. I gave Israel a boner this week.
Brett Vesely
Anyway, about your people.
Dennis
Strange about the baby carrot. That's all I'm. All I'm saying is. And I'm not alone, there's somebody driving around out there going, wait a minute. What? Just like. I was like, that's not a thing.
Brett Vesely
I'll own it.
Dennis
I'm the same way you thought they were, baby. Thank you, Brett. Thank you for stepping in.
John Holmberg
I'll be honest.
Dennis
Thank you for stepping in and understanding. You also assumed that they were trying, and all they had to do is peel the little tiny green thing. And so did I. In fact, in my brain, they call it the Mandela effect, Something that clearly has never happened in my brain, I think has. Where I've actually thought, oh, they didn't get the. The little green stalk part off the top. And I have peeled off little baby carrot green where it was. Where it was once on the vine. I don't know how carrots work. I love them. I love them. And I'm just gonna look at that. Next time I look at that bag or the bowl that. Nah, garbage.
Brett Vesely
When I go to Costco and you buy the bag of them or whatever, it's all like, oh, all right, cool.
Byron
We start to.
Dennis
Sometimes some of them had like. And I understood that they were, I guess. I guess, stupid sometimes. It happened. It's just a thing. Sorry. Baby carrots. It threw me. It threw me for a loop. I wasn't expecting to start the day with that, but I'm like, you gotta be kidding me. And then in my brain, I'm like, oh, of course. How big would that field like of people? Like, it's such a tiny little.
Brett Vesely
Brad Williams.
Dennis
Yeah, yeah. Loads like Oompa Loompas.
Byron
I mean, there are a ton of terrorists that are like, there are smaller carrots but different colors.
Dennis
They're not the orange, Brady. We're talking about baby carrots, and they're not real, so don't try to appease me with their.
Byron
I'm just trying to make you feel better about how dumb.
Dennis
Well, there's. Yeah, you're the one who said, also, shredded carrots aren't grown. We know. Follow the bouncy ball.
John Holmberg
Stay on topic.
Dennis
Now you're thinking about extra carrots and what you can dip them in.
Radio Station Announcer

Byron
Phoenix. Hello world.
Dennis
Hi.
Byron
A study ranked the most fun cities in America based on 65 metrics. They factored in how far you travel to get your closest bowling alley or frozen yogurt shop.
Brett Vesely
He's ready to bash his head into the rocks of delegates team right there.
Byron
According to the results, the 10 most fun cities, 65 different like restaurants say that schools. But that was one of them. One of the factors 65 different metrics.
Dennis
And one of them was cities. Again. He did that again.
Byron
The 10 most fun cities in America.
Brett Vesely
Go ahead.
Byron
Las Vegas, Orlando, Miami, Atlanta, New Orleans, Austin, Austin, San Francisco, Chicago, Houston and New York.
Commercial Announcer
Wait a minute.
Byron
One more time.
Commercial Announcer
Is Orlando higher than Las Vegas?
Byron
Las Vegas was first.
Dennis
Oh, you went one to ten.
Commercial Announcer
Yeah.
Dennis
Okay. Yeah. Orlando's too because of the Disney World.
Byron
Vegas ranks first for nightlife and parties.
Dennis
Yeah.
Commercial Announcer
Have you been to the Orlando Disney?
Dennis
No, it's too big.
Byron
They also ranked city according to how much it costs to have fun. And that's your main concern. Start planning a trip to Toledo, Ohio.
Dennis
There's no one ever.
Byron
The five cheapest cities for fun. Toledo, Wichita, Montgomery, Alabama, Fayetteville, North Carolina and Oklahoma City.
Dennis
Jamie Farr's house and the Jeep dealerships that are massive.
Byron
What's there to do in Toledo?
Brett Vesely
That's it.
Dennis
They build Jeeps there.
Commercial Announcer
But they build the Jeep Liberty TGI.
Byron
Fridays right off of it.
Commercial Announcer
I think that one closed.
Dennis
You drive around in a tour Bus. And look at places Jamie Farr's visited. Because for some reason, they're real proud of Jamie Farr being from Toledo.
Commercial Announcer
No, there was a. What is that place? That was on. By Fiesta Mall.
Byron
Bennegan's.
Commercial Announcer
They had a Benneggins. That's basically TGIF light.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Dennis
Maybe an Alan Alda impersonator drives you around. And this is where Klinger had his first. It was a wonderful day.
Byron
Over here.
Dennis
This is a shower Klinger used to use. It's a. It wasn't really Clinger, though. No, not at the time. It was Jamie Farr. This was his ent. This tour sucks.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
You're in Toledo.
Dennis
What else are you going to point out?
Commercial Announcer
You're right.
Dennis
I'm not arguing.
Commercial Announcer
University of Toledo.
Byron
The Rockets.
Dennis
The Rocket. The Mudhead Stadium. I guess that is nice.
Byron
It is, right?
Dennis
All right, calm down. You were in Toledo. Everything that had decency was felt. Like the Taj Mahal. I've been there. They don't have the sun.
Commercial Announcer
You didn't go to the stadium.
Dennis
They signed a contract to not have the sun in Toledo that week that you were there. Oh, my God. I've never. It's. I said it. I said, Toledo is the Algonquin word for absence of blue sky.
Byron
Last work last week, we heard about the missing lottery ticket. Had one day left to turn it in. 196 million. And if it doesn't get turned in, it goes to the schools in California.
Dennis
That's what they say.
Byron
A year ago, In December of 2023, two tickets were sold at a gas station in Encino, California. It was 395 million. Guy named Fairmont, Fairmarts Lahajani.
Dennis
Oh, boy.
Byron
Had one of the winning tickets.
Dennis
See something, say something.
Byron
He got half of it. 197 and a half million. And last week, it sounded like the other ticket would go unclaimed.
Dennis
Guy showed up.
Byron
Fair Marts showed back up and said, I bought both tickets.
Dennis
Why didn't he say that in the beginning?
Brett Vesely
Same numbers.
Byron
Great question. Yeah, that's what they're saying.
Dennis
Like, why'd you wait until Gammon?
Byron
He said he used the same numbers and he made two transactions because the lottery doesn't allow a single sale.
Dennis
Right.
Byron
So he bought two tickets with the same number on them. Like produce a ticket.
Dennis
Yeah.
Byron
Don't you have records of me purchasing the ticket?
Dennis
Who's on both?
Byron
Yeah. And he goes, you look that up, you'll see.
Dennis
And he told you where he bought it.
Byron
They don't have that. So he's now suing the state of.
Dennis
California, saying that for the other half.
Byron
The other half.
Dennis
You know, in a way he's got a point. Even if he didn't buy the other ticket.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
If you and I won the lottery and you never claimed your half, when the time comes, the other half's mine. I won the lottery.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
If the other winner doesn't come forward, the whole jackpot's mine.
Commercial Announcer
Yeah.
Dennis
If nobody wins, the schools get it.
Byron
So he hasn't given an interview and the lottery officials won't comment on it publicly, so.
Dennis
Yeah.
Commercial Announcer
Because they know they're in the wrong.
Brett Vesely
Other than. Other than that, I got to give credit where credit's due. Brady did research on.
Dennis
Yes.
John Holmberg
I mean, we.
Brett Vesely
He had answers.
Dennis
It did have answers.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Dennis
He also had a second page which tells me that that thing showed up with answers. Here are your answers if anyone asks questions. Interesting. Because. Yeah, I, I would be. If I was the lottery guy, I would sue them for saying, hey, just because the other guy didn't claim his ticket doesn't mean I didn't win. You give me the unclaimed. Because I picked all six numbers. I wouldn't go in there with the scam. If I bought two tickets of the same numbers, I'd say that's mine too. That I won the jackpot of $395 million. You say you sold two tickets, the other guy didn't claim it. Now it's all mine.
Commercial Announcer
You know, it'll drastically change this show when Brady discovers Gemini AI at five o' clock in the morning.
Dennis
Oh, no.
Commercial Announcer
Answer his questions.
Dennis
Well, you have to ask questions in the first place.
Byron
That's true.
John Holmberg
We ask the questions.
Dennis
That's what makes this so golden.
Commercial Announcer
Jim and I won't teach him how to ask questions. I guess you're right there.
Dennis
Answer questions he doesn't have yet.
John Holmberg
You're right.
Dennis
But I'm. I almost want to go over to California and lobby for this sound terror sounding name of the man who won the lottery. Johnny.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
No.
Dennis
Take the money away from the kids in Encino. No. They pay enough taxes in California. I don't care. There's plenty of weeks that the lottery doesn't have a winner and that just means more tax money. That's what that thing. It's all designed to have winners. They don't rely on no claims. That's not what the lottery is. No claims is gravy to the lottery. Oh yeah, but if somebody won it and another guy didn't claim, if two people want it, the one that did Claim it gets the whole thing. The lottery's not sitting back going, well, another 200 million nobody claimed. Good for us. That's a. Well, you're supposed to get the money every winning tickets. I know. Yeah, but if.
Byron
I don't know. But if they could in state and say, well, if the one doesn't come.
Dennis
Forward, that's how it should be when they say you're going to win 395 million if you have the ticket. And you'll split it if other people have the ticket too. Well, if nobody has the other ticket, they just say that. That they'd say that every time. Oh, we had two sold tickets just to keep half. They can't prove they didn't.
Byron
And yeah, what if they look into.
Dennis
I mean, the lotteries could be lying. The whole thing is designed to get us to pay for taxes. The poor people's tax. And then every once in a while they give one guy a bunch of money, but they take all that money back.
John Holmberg
That's.
Dennis
That was it. Sounds like California's running scam. I don't know.
Byron
Power Boat.
Brett Vesely
I think that was last night.
Dennis
Got the Power Bone. I like that Powerball. Okay, I like yours better.
Commercial Announcer
Watching Annie night videos tonight.
Dennis
The drawing for the Power Bone. I mean ball. Sorry, Ronnie, that's out of the bag for our Wednesday Power Bone. I gotta draw for it though.
Commercial Announcer
Does it roll over Brady if I get it?
Dennis
One of those magic eight balls. Is tonight the night for the Power boon? Signs say no.
Byron
Ask again.
Dennis
Ask again later.
Byron
Someone just reposted the oddest laws that are still on the books. In some states, like in Alabama, it's against the law to dress up as a priest or nun unless you really are one. It even applies on Halloween.
Dennis
Why so? Because people might tell you secrets.
Byron
Arizona has a law that specifically bans rigging claw machine games. So they're impossible to win.
Commercial Announcer
Pretty impossible.
Dennis
Wait a minute. We're the only. We have a. Other states don't have a ban against that.
John Holmberg
Like, oh yeah, you can.
Dennis
Totally.
Byron
That's what I want.
Dennis
Give us money. The things rig it, right. No, but you're rigging a game. That's like by definition, that's illegal. Yeah, there's a law against anything that costs you money. That is a fixed outcome.
Brett Vesely
I don't know what you're talking about.
Dennis
I know.
Byron
That's what I.
Dennis
Look over here. That's what I'm talking about. If it's already predetermined, you shouldn't have to pay for it. That's the Whole point.
Byron
In California, you're allowed to eat frogs unless they died in a frog jumping competition.
Commercial Announcer
Calabasas.
Dennis
Oh, that's. I remember that. That's a revered thing.
Byron
In Colorado, you can't use indoor furniture as out outdoor furniture. Meet the person that got a ticket for that.
Brett Vesely
They don't have hillbillies in Colorado.
Dennis
Yeah, exactly.
Byron
In Delaware, whispering in church is technically illegal if it disrupts the service.
Commercial Announcer
Man, you got a mean pastor if he's.
Dennis
That's it, you're going to jail. No forgiveness on that one.
Byron
Of all the states, Florida actually has the most appropriate. And it makes sense. It's illegal to feed wild alligators.
Dennis
Brady, you'd do it. You're a law abiding citizen. But that one you would do In Indiana, noodling.
Byron
Also hillbilly hand fishing. It's illegal in what state? Indiana. You also cannot fish with dynamite again. Evidently had to put it on the.
Dennis
Bus because they had to put it on the. They thought we just know better. But then my family in Indiana said, hey, you know, we'd get some fish faster if we just blew up the lake. And they used to. That used to be a big thing. There was a big deal where the fish would settle in this spot in Cedar Lake, Indiana. And there was like a little, like it was like a strange waterfall and like a pond that came off of Cedar Lake on the corner and it turned into like a small stream and there was a ton of carpets and then something else, some other type of fish was in there and you could. And they'd go and scoop them out with nets and the cops would have to go over and go, you can't do that. It's illegal. Like they would stop them from doing it. Like you had to actually fish for it to keep it. It was a. And boy, man, there weren't cops around. People would run down there with nets and scoop them out.
Byron
The only American president to own a patent, Abraham Lincoln, when he was a lawyer, he patented a flat bottom boat design. But it never went to market.
Dennis
Do we use them today?
Byron
No, but they're big. The flat bottom boats delivered a lot of goods. They used the canals when Lincoln was just not his, just not his.
Dennis
So he made money off of it. He had the patent on the floor.
Byron
But it never went to market. So you can patent that design, but if you never build it, is it still active?
Commercial Announcer
Does like.
Dennis
I'm sure that's over dealing the idea. If someone else built it.
Byron
You can't steal that design.
Dennis
But if Trump's got a Flat bottom boat.
Commercial Announcer
Trump does.
Byron
Yeah, but he could have something different on it. You know, be able to steer it or to.
Dennis
Then wouldn't if he invented something other than the flat bottom part. Bottom with a thing. So they invented a different kind. I'm gonna look into this.
Brett Vesely
Dolly steamboat.
John Holmberg
A flat bottom boat.
Dennis
No, it's a stupid wheel paddle. Paddle wheel dump. Messy. Don't do it. Don't you dare do it. I wouldn't do it.
John Holmberg
No.
Dennis
I'm turning it down.
Byron
We're still a month away from 2025. But if you think 2024 was a rough year.
Dennis
Brett, I knew you were gonna eventually kick.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
He was just digging around. I saw what he was up. What? Searching for that God damn it. Dolly steamboat song. The only time I if the only time I would go on that again. Oh. It's our annual hate of the dolly steamboat. I would only go on it if they change the name to the Dolly Lusitania. And it was guaranteed to be U boated out of the water.
John Holmberg
Oh.
Commercial Announcer
Two heads.
Dennis
Two heads. We'll be traveling at about one mile an hour for the next 11 hours. Enjoy the nothingness of Canyon Lake. Release the animals to your right. There may be a mountain. And go. Nope, just another rock. Enjoy all the rocks that you saw driving in the exact same way. You see it now, only at the breakneck speed of one.
Byron
It's too cold for those critters now.
Dennis
I wanted to bash my head into those rocks. If you'd like a drink, they're complimentary with your dolly steamboat ticket and M&Ms. And snacks are provided at $33 a box. Once again, we'll be traveling at the speed of one for the rest of eternity. The hanging rope's coming up here soon. Unfortunately, it's been used so much, it's not stable anymore.
Byron
They could up that game if they have. The second deck is the Boom boom Room.
Dennis
The Rah Rah Room. Brady.
John Holmberg
The Boom Boom room.
Dennis
No black people are going on that. No black people. People are going to Canyon Lake for a slow paddle boat ride that reminds them of way too much stuff. You know what? How you doing? Oh, I see we have a lot of African Americans here. Welcome. Nothing makes you guys more comfortable than slow boats going nowhere.
Brett Vesely
Captain Doughboy will be in charge today.
Dennis
And we're going to have some courvoisier for all of you before it's all over. Oh, the imagery of the late 1800s water travel. I'm sure that makes you guys feel great. Yeah. The Boom boom Room. Massive failure. Oh, that's stupid.
Byron
Why is that below deck?
Dennis
Brett, Head on down those stairs there. Don't forget to shut the door behind you. Oh, dolly steamboat. Good boy.
Brett Vesely
On Hennessy right now.
Dennis
Oh, I would throw a drone right into the side of that thing.
Byron
Someone noticed on the 2025 calendar it starts on a Wednesday. So the first three days, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, WTF. That's every week. Like it has happened in 2020 too.
Dennis
It happens every week that Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at WTF.
Byron
January 1st. Stupid 2025. Wednesday.
Brett Vesely
Just ride the dolly steamboat.
Dennis
It's just as bad. You know what?
John Holmberg
That might.
Dennis
You know what? It's not as bad as you thought, is it? If anyone tries to talk you into going to that, don't do it. Every week has Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Byron
So one also happened in May this year.
Dennis
Yeah, tons of months start on Wednesday.
Commercial Announcer
And November.
Byron
Last year they're starting about January 1st.
Dennis
We get it. It's just another month and it's nothing.
Brett Vesely
God damn.
Dennis
Crash this boat under the sun, we get eaten by mountain goats.
Commercial Announcer
Is that a torpedo in the water?
Brett Vesely
I hope so.
Dennis
Look like we got a German yield boat hanging around here in the canyon, Mike. Hopefully it doesn't kill us all. Speak for yourself. Come on.
John Holmberg
Come on.
Dennis
You crouch. Put one through this thing.
Byron
After 20 years, Chi Chi's restaurant is making a comeback.
Dennis
What's Chi Chi's restaurant?
Byron
It's a Mexican restaurant that was popular.
Dennis
Popular in the.
Commercial Announcer
Yeah.
Byron
70S and 80s.
Commercial Announcer
There was a couple.
Byron
It started Minnesota. There were a couple they went up to.
Brett Vesely
When I think of Minnesota, I think of Mexico.
Dennis
I think of their tamales.
Commercial Announcer
Started by one of the Green Bay Packers.
Dennis
Oh, was it.
Byron
Yeah, the founder.
Dennis
Was it the guy who was with the girl? The. Mark Chamura.
Commercial Announcer
No, no, no, no, no. Like a. Like an old school.
Dennis
Yeah, yeah.
Byron
Is the son of the original owner, which is Marno McDermott. McDermott and he opened the restaurants in 1976.
Dennis
Chi Cheese.
Byron
They closed pretty quick. Did we have the largest hepatitis breakout in the. I forget what it was the world in. In the. The vegetables here.
Dennis
Oh, you forget what hepatitis was?
Byron
Yeah, it was. But it was a restaurant that caused green onion.
Dennis
Was it onions?
Byron
Green onions, that's right. Four people died.
Dennis
Correct. Only four people died. And that's the largest one. That's pretty good.
Byron
Four people that died and over a hundred people.
Commercial Announcer
Seven hundred.
Dennis
How do you know this? Wait, have you already read the story? What are you reading?
Brett Vesely
Nothing. Obviously.
Dennis
Yeah.
Byron
They said hundreds of people got sick and 40.
Commercial Announcer
Hundreds. More than a hundred.
Dennis
Let me see that. Here we go. It's just. Is it a quick one? No, It's Chichi's thing. 20 years Chichi company.
Byron
Hundreds of people.
Dennis
Got 100 people got sick in 4 died. Chain was basically defunct within a few months. Well, why would we want this back?
Byron
For the fried ice cream.
Dennis
I mean, the one menu, remember, quite literally killed people.
John Holmberg
And like, hey, come back, city baby.
Byron
There's still Chi Chi's. I think you can buy the salsa in grocery stores. They still have the. Yeah.
Dennis
Jody Arias only killed one guy and she can't come back. Why can't Cheechi?
John Holmberg
That's how it does.
Byron
The ones opening up and they want, you know. Listen, dude, look at you.
Dennis
You're defending a place that murdered four people and sickened over 700. And this is an announcement. This is why your kids are fat. This is why America's got a problem. We let a murderer reopen his restaurant.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Laughy May pot down, Skinny. Nobody needs to hear from you right now. Chi Cheese was gone. Four people's guts couldn't handle the deliciousness and they dropped out. It's called Darwinism.
Byron
Stay here. Ralphie.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Hey, Brady. Yeah, you're with me on this. Maybe 700 got sick from the food, but thousands of us got sick to our stomachs when we heard they were closing. Bring it back.
Byron
It's a great point.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Thank you. I understand how fat man thinks. It's a beautiful thing. Jodi Arias ain't coming back and she's a murderer. It's like if Travis put the knife at him and blamed her. That's Chi Chi's.
Byron
You had to eat it, Ralphie. Sorry, you can't partake in this. But you'll be happy for. For other people.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Okay.
Byron
Wendy's brings back the beloved three dollar keychain that gets customers unlimited free frosties. In 2025, we had one.
John Holmberg
Pretty.
Brett Vesely
Pretty cool.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Unlimited Frosties.
Brett Vesely
Yep.
Dennis
One a day.
Guest / Strom Thurman
I'm gonna test the boundaries of that marketing plan. I will show you what unlimited looks like. There will be limits. All right, I gotta go.
Byron
Ready?
Guest / Strom Thurman
You keep telling about Chichi 0, Ralph. Hey, we're bringing back 80s Tylenol while we're at it.
Commercial Announcer
But we have a Chi Cheese. It's in central Phoenix. It's a cabaret. But we've got Chi Cheese.
Byron
It's boobs.
Dennis
What in the world are we thinking? So Chi Cheese is back. Remember, They've stopped killing and they're gonna serve up some hot Mexican slop for you. I don't want the restaurant to be back. I never heard of it in the first place. I don't think we had them here.
Brett Vesely
I don't think we did.
Dennis
If we did, we weren't going to. And good for us. We're still alive. You don't get that second chance. You have to at least change your name. If you killed four patrons and 700 dies.
Byron
Bember Berry.
Dennis
If you don't get 20 years off, come out and go. Are my clothes still in style? I'd like to start over, John.
Commercial Announcer
This might explain a lot, but I grew up in Michigan in the 80s and 90s and we had a Chi cheese. It was my first exposure to, quote unquote, Mexican food, if you can call it that.
Dennis
And four people died. And. And they want to. They want to come back. Break out the Feldman, Holmberg. This is the comeback king.
Guest / Strom Thurman
I'm a comeback comeback king.
Dennis
Would you go to Chi Chi's?
Byron
I went to Chi Chi's numerous times growing up.
Dennis
And then they killed some people and they need to go away.
Byron
I was in Pittsburgh.
Commercial Announcer
He wasn't anywhere near Pittsburgh.
Dennis
Okay. It doesn't matter. When a McDonald's can't kill people, then go away for a year or two and come back.
Byron
Yeah, it wasn't like blown away by cheat sheets by any means.
Dennis
Jodi Arias did one. She's never getting out. Chee Chee's four plus hundreds almost. You're done. Papa John's had the decency to take out an apostrophe. At the very least, they changed something. Chi Chi's. You want to come back? Back. Don't come back as cheesy.
Byron
Several chains that have survived murder. The hepatitis.
Commercial Announcer
Jack in the Box.
Dennis
Well, Jack in the Box didn't survive hepatitis. They had horse meat and kangaroo. Because they were buying from a different source.
Commercial Announcer
No, they had the E Coli.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Huge.
Dennis
E Coli is different than hepatitis.
Byron
Died.
Dennis
E Coli is different than hepatitis.
Byron
That's a different people.
Dennis
Food poisoning is a risk you take with food. Hepatitis is something that you shouldn't be getting from food. There's something that's a murder. That's a murder. That's different. E Coli is just unprepared, poorly.
John Holmberg
It happens.
Dennis
Not the same. Hepatitis is not something you can get as a foodborne illness unless something's terrible is going on. It's hard to get hepatitis from food. Then you see E Coli is like, ah, they had a, you know, bad meat. It sat out for a couple hours. Hepatitis. You're doing some work.
Byron
I thought someone. I thought there's a couple places that had the hepatitis.
Dennis
If you can't Remember them? It's because they went away.
Byron
I forgot about the chief. Now. Now I remember.
Dennis
Yeah. And when the first thing you think of. Oh, Chichi's the place that killed people. Are they coming back?
Commercial Announcer
Hepatitis. Hepatitis gets into the food system through feces or blood of an infected person or animal.
Dennis
Yeah. It's not easy to just. It's somebody's killing somebody with dirty hepatitis. Getting on the food from the person. Yeah, well, it's beyond dirty hands. They have to have hepatitis with their dirty, bloody hands to get it into the food.
Brett Vesely
Were they growing it at Sodomy Gulch.
Dennis
Or what over there? Hepatitis is. That's horrible.
Commercial Announcer
Texter says. By the way, can you clarify something for me? Did the DNA donor of Andre the Giant just say he wouldn't risk a wolf baby?
Dennis
Oh, yeah, it's true. Yeah. Yeah.
Byron
See?
Dennis
Saying it's worth the risk. 50. 50 shot. Your kid comes out of wolf boy, you put the minoxidil. Yeah. We've all had food poisoning. We all don't get hepatitis from a meal. That's terribly. That's horrifying. Guess who's back. Back, back, back again.
John Holmberg
Chi Chi's back.
Dennis
What up, everybody? Remember us with chi cheese? We killed four in the past.
Guest / Strom Thurman
We got.
Dennis
You should be over that by now. Melbourne's gonna be their spokesman. We fired the guy with hepatitis, so the food's better.
Commercial Announcer
John, you're talking about risk with someone who goes to the taco spot in El Centro.
Dennis
Isn't that weird? That is true. You'll visit any restaurant you're given, but you won't even rub minoxidil in the 50.50 shot of wolf baby?
Byron
Yeah. Apples and oranges.
Dennis
Well, those are both fruits, so they're very comparable. I've never understood. Understood that argument. Apples and oranges are both fruit. We can compare them around comparable fruits, different colors, different taste. Comparable. You don't want to kill people with your restaurant. This says IHOP and Denny's have killed thousands over the years. I don't believe that to be true. If it was thousands dead from IHOP in one thing. From one thing, maybe over the years, plenty of people have.
Byron
Flaming out, bro.
Dennis
It's not flaming out if you're. I know we're defending food here, but if IHOP's been around for 70 years and in that time, you know, somebody's over and they've had a heart attack or they've overdone it, that's one offs all the way through. But if they had a simple outbreak of hepatitis, a bunch of People died. You got to shut that restaurant down. Anyway, just come back and call it the Jodi Arias Mexican restaurant. Have some fun with it.
Radio Station Announcer
Arizona most powerful, powerful rock radio station. The best of homework's morning sickness. I'm 90 AKUPD.
Dennis
I saw a thing this weekend about an Asian girl. Let's talk about Christmas. Crazy grandma and grandpa are, you know, getting up there. And the family had these twin girls, and one of the twins died of meningitis two years ago. And they won't tell the grandparents, so they bring an extra set of clothes for the other, the living one, and they have them going like, she goes in and out of the house as both of them.
Byron
Wow.
Dennis
Because they don't run slow. Yeah. They don't want to break the news to grandma and grandpa about, you know, which. And the grandparents can't tell. Not because they're Asian, because they're twins, Brett. But, you know, I mean, you could see the difference. You could have just gone to Mace evidently and hired another one and said, come with me. Your name is Quan Lee. For a couple minutes, you get a fool. Some old people, if they're that easy to fool, you could have gotten. You could have rented one, go over to Mekong and say, you come with me and pretend to be this girl's sister. Because the grandparents didn't know, but they've done it for a couple years. So finally, grandma died, and they broke the news to her on her deathbed, came in and said, by the way, we've been fooling you guys for, like, 24 months. The other one's been dead for two years. I've been playing both roles, and grandma's, like, taking her last breath. Why now? Why tell me now? I confused me now, but still won't tell grandpa. Gonna keep the ruse alive for a little while longer. And she's all ashamed of it, but she's still like, her parents think that's the best thing.
Byron
Kids loving it. Double down on present.
Dennis
Well, she's like, 30.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
I'm doubling down on grandparents presents.
Byron
Their parents are twin.
Dennis
Hospice probably sucks for her because twins have the worst grandparent gifts ever because they get two of the same thing. It's not like she's getting double presents. She's getting two T shirts that say, you know, lucky me or whatever. I don't know.
Byron
Yeah, but they stop.
Dennis
Grandpa's babies. Yeah, I know, but they don't stop that ever. Grandparents, they always treat you like you're six if you got twins. And your grandparents, the cruddy double sweater buy Is always. Cuz they're not shopping, they don't want to go out. And individ you're twins, two will do.
Byron
The only interesting thing that would happen. It sounds like it's not if the grandparents, you know, had a necess, whatever, a trust or leaving money to the one twin. Yeah, they gotta straighten that out.
Dennis
It all just transfers over twin.
Brett Vesely
They're not gonna notice.
Dennis
You go into the game, you double down, let that girl have both of them.
Byron
They'll just do it to the court.
Dennis
It's easy. And there was a bunch of like comments on the end of people who were doing similar things. They took down all the pictures of the twins in their house. So they didn't get a. I guess they didn't look exactly alike. Although to me they did. But they. The one twin was a little bit different. And they took down all the pictures. Not to remind grandma and grandpa that that was a thing. And it fooled them like they never. They had no idea. But you just, you bring another sweater and she'd have to come in and pretend to be her sister while grandma was, you know, doing stuff and couldn't get them in the same room at the same time. Grandma and grandpa never asked how come you guys don't come in here together? Because one's real busy and you know, they just took over spaces. I thought it was pretty cool.
Byron
I got duped for a week by.
Dennis
Asian twins in high school.
Byron
No, there weren't Asian twins. But this family, my buddy had four other kids. This family had two sisters and two other brothers. And the youngest one comes down, I meet him the first time. My name's Jason. Good to meet you. You know, at the time he's probably like in fifth grade or whatever. Then he comes down a little bit later and said, oh no, I'm Chuck. They're Chuck and Jason. They're twins. But it was just only Jason.
Dennis
Oh, you've been fooled by twins everybody.
Byron
Yeah, they were saying that.
Dennis
Yeah. Were they real though? He wasn't a real twin.
Byron
No, he was just Jay. It was just Jason the whole time.
Dennis
Saw you as a mark and the.
Byron
Whole family was in on him just to. Yeah. Oh, Chuck's not here. Br. You know, just to. Yeah, you. Yeah.
Dennis
They chose you as a mark for no reason and for a week they were having the time of their lives. Oh yeah, who told you?
Byron
Hey, where's Chuck?
Dennis
And you're asking to play with him and stuff?
Byron
No, I'm the older brother, I play with. But then it's like, which one are You, Jason or Chuck?
Dennis
And they're just. Yeah, that's. Get that Bogan kid thinking we're triplets. Oh, yeah. We haven't met the other one. This is Ronnie. Oh, good lord. How many people live here? A lot. You're going to meet them all eventually. Well, that's weird. Were you pissed at the end?
Byron
No, I mean, they. Well, they knew I would joke around and stuff about multiple. No, but they thought this would be a funny. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Dennis
They were dicking with you.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
For no reason. It's a good one. No, that's mean. I would never go over there again. I'd be like, those people think nothing of me. I would too. Yeah, yeah, exactly. I'm like, you guys can go yourself. What'd you do that to me for?
Byron
Sure.
Dennis
Easy, Rube, you jackass. Like, oh, that's basically what they're saying.
John Holmberg
Pretty much.
Dennis
Like, this idiot, let's try to make him. That's the only time I ever.
Byron
But you know how. I mean, it would be really easy. It's not like you're hanging out with the other family, you know, the siblings too much. They're all over there once or twice still. I don't think they're hanging out with a guy. I'm like, oh, that's your brother? Yeah, he's got a twin. Oh, okay.
Dennis
And then they're all like, hey, I told the idiot we have a twin, so let's play pretend we do and watch his stupid face. Yeah, you were being made fun of. Oh, yeah, being stomped. And you still hung out with them after.
Commercial Announcer
Yeah, man.
Dennis
I wouldn't. Just not just cuz that if that's how they introduce themselves, I'm out. Yeah, I'm pretty much out on that. I know. I'm the town jackass. You need to go back to their house and go, hey, guys, remember that whole Chuck Jason thing? What the are you thinking? Hang on, let me.
John Holmberg
Let me ask my.
Dennis
My wife. In fact, I have multiple wives. Hold on just a second. They're all twins.
John Holmberg
The idiot's back.
Brett Vesely
Here comes Warren Jeffs.
Byron
They have five sets of twins.
Dennis
You guys like having.
Guest / Strom Thurman
You're joshing me.
Dennis
Oh, speaking of Josh here. Josh, My twin brother. I'll be right back. He wears a cape. That's how you'll know the difference. Josh has a cape. Jeff doesn't have a cape.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Got it.
Dennis
There's a little like 45 people living in this house. Hold on a second. We get my other sister, Melissa. This guy never asks a question. About anything. He just played with you, huh? I pretended to be a twin once when a girl like, I didn't know. Well, again, it was intimidation. I liked her. She was very sweet in high school. And then she. She told me that she was, I think she was like 16. I had recently just had sex with the first time, not with her, but feeling pretty good about myself. Lost the. Lost the card. Felt pretty good. Got that out, you know, that monkey off my back, so to speak. And then so she and I start hanging out together. And she asked me, she goes, have you done it? Yeah, I have, actually. I'm a man of the world. And she goes, my ex boyfriend and I used to do it all the time. And I'm like, oh. Because I had only done it like twice. So I'm like, still, I'm a neophyte. And so she's like. She's like, yeah, we studied a lot. I'm like, how many times do you think you've done it? And she asked me, she goes, what about you? And I'm like, two. And then she said, oh, thousands, but. And it scared me away. So a couple nights later, there's a knock on my door. There's a girl there with flowers. I. I recognized her, but I didn't know her. She's got flowers and balloons. And she said, jennifer would like to cordially invite you to Morp, which was our Sadie Hawkins prom backwards. So she's like, would you like to go to Morp with her? And I'm standing there, I'm like, oh, you think I'm John? She goes, what? I'm like, I don't know. I'm his cousin Dennis. We look quite a bit alike. I'll take these and give them to him, though. And so she's like, huh? Because I think me and this girl had a couple classes together. I didn't know her very well.
Brett Vesely
Like, yeah, she a beast or something or what?
Dennis
No, no, Jennifer was nice. Her friend that she sent up.
Brett Vesely
That's what I'm saying.
Dennis
Yeah, I know she was okay.
John Holmberg
Oh, all right.
Dennis
Just a Middle Eastern or something.
Brett Vesely
That could have been number three.
Dennis
What are you doing? Could have been. Hey, while you're here, though, why don't you give Dennis a run for your money? So I take the flowers and I take the thing and I'm like, I'll. I'll have them call you. And then the phone rings like 10 minutes later, and she's sobbing and she goes, why did you do that? What are you talking about? She goes, I Saw you. I was in the car. That was you. I'm like, no, no, no. My cousin. My cousin. Cousin Dennis. And I look exactly.
Byron
You went all in.
Dennis
Well, I totally dug my heels in on this lie.
Brett Vesely
Oh, there you go. You're Brady.
Dennis
And you. Well. And you know what? Unlike Brady, she was not stupid enough to believe it. So she goes, and this was my core mistake, was earlier that day we hung out and I was still in the same clothes. I had a. What a dumbass. So in the doorway, I'm standing there in the exact same thing I wore while I hung out with her that afternoon.
Byron
Come on.
Dennis
I know. Like, Dennis and I just swapped out the same outfit. And he answers the door. She goes, I watched you. Why would you do that to me? Like, it wasn't to you. I was my cousin Dennis. We're practically twins. Everybody thinks so. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. If you didn't want to go, all you have to say is no. And I'm like, I'm not gonna say no to anyone. I just had to give it.
Brett Vesely
Our family's poor. We share clothes.
Dennis
And it wasn't like I didn't like her. I did. I was just intimidated by the fact that she was so well rounded in the bedroom. And I was gonna. I needed. I needed to slow down for a second, take a breath. She had just hit me earlier that day with the thousands of times having sex, which, you know, as you age, you're like, that's a good thing.
Byron
Yeah. So she saw you in the hammer pants. La gears.
Dennis
I'll tell you what I was wearing. I know exactly what I had on, too. I had. For no reason at all, someone gave me a Seattle Seahawks warm up. Half shirt. Oh, Jesus Christ. You know the ones you remember, the old college ones that had holes in them and they weren't like the mesh. It was mesh, but it was. Yeah, it was heavy mesh. Like you could see through it. No, not at all. It was like chain mail. Yeah. And then. But it had a number on it. I don't even know whose it was. And it just said Seahawks across the top.
Byron
Oh, Seahawks or Sonic Seahawks.
Dennis
Seattle Seahawks. I don't know why, but somebody gave me that and I liked it. Half shirt Largent. Then I had a pair of. Of sweatpants. It wasn't a Steve Largent, though. That would have been a good one. I had a. I think it was Jim Zorn, actually. He was long gone too. Anyway, a pair of shorts and again, just like socks pulled up to my Knees. Because I went with that for a while, with Even into my teen years.
Brett Vesely
Christ, you should be grateful.
Dennis
She asked. I was dressed like he panicked. I dressed like a retarded boy who had just wet himself. And they gave me some extra clothes. Here, put these on and go home and tell your mother what happened.
Radio Station Announcer
Wow.
Byron
Chuck would never do that.
Dennis
I tried, but I wasn't wearing the shorts and the socks when we hung out that day, that I had changed into that. So I still had to say the half shirt on. I had a half Seattle Seahawks shirt on. It's a great idea. He's nice out.
Brett Vesely
That's what Dan was thinking, too, when he showed up with the half shirt on.
Dennis
I remember when Morp was. It was in spring, but it was nice weather. Oh, Dan hated the half shirts.
Byron
Jesus.
Dennis
My dad and I went to dinner on Thursday and then he wrote me a nice, nice note, said he's all proud of me and stuff. Like, it was a nice little text I got this weekend from dad, and I'll even read it to you. And it says, oh, where is it? I got a lot of text yesterday from all the people who were, I bet, Steelers fans and other ones.
Byron
The battle for Pennsylvania.
Dennis
It says it was very nice. It says, just got home, he's in Texas. Said, want to thank you for a very enjoyable dinner. I truly enjoy spending time with you and it reaffirms how proud I am of the person who you've become and makes me happy that you're my son. Especially happy that you're not gay. Throw away that half shirt. Love your dad. I'm like, oh, that's nice. Thank you. That's very sweet. I appreciate that, dad. Yeah, the half shirt was a dead giveaway. And she called and she was. I felt terrible because she was so pretty. Oh, no, that was. That was, I think maybe the last.
Byron
Time she talked, but, like, Morp was off the table.
Dennis
Oh, Morp, would you even go, no, I never went to a morph. I had two opportunities. I blew them both. Oh, and then same girl on that Monday, because this was like a Friday or Saturday night. On Monday she's on Bruce Kelly's show on KZP. She won $10,000. Oh, boy. And tells me, I did talk to her after. Tells me, are you sure? Because I felt like an idiot. She goes, I'll spend it all. I know I was scared of the wardrobe. Now she could have got me all new half shirts. How many hairs would 10 grand buy in 1988? That would have been amazing. I could have Been swimming in halfsies. A mesh jersey for every team, 10 grand.
Byron
And Howard Jones playing in her backyard.
Dennis
That was a different girl. But yeah, we had Howard Jones at another girl. She didn't like me. That was Shauna Ferguson. She was dating a friend of mine. That was a neat day too. Howard Stern stood under that. Howard Stern. Howard Jones stood under that tree singing his songs for dying. It was amazing how many Dobson kids were winning KCZP prizes. She won ten grand on the radio. And I heard it that on Monday morning I'm like, oh, that girl just asked me to backwards prom. She's having the greatest week of her life. She wants to include me. And I'm like, nope, you're a.
Brett Vesely
But she was three would have happened too.
Dennis
I thought she was a slut and I was worried. My dad had me scared of of slots.
Byron
It all went to.
Dennis
She didn't bang Zellner. I'm sure she thought about it because who didn't? Zellner was graduated by then. She was two years younger than me. She wasn't familiar with the dz. I banged down Gully, then Gully probably got on it. Don't worry about it, baby, I got you. I'll take your money from the radio station in those dumb balloons. And Gully wore a lot of half shirts. I think I kind of modeled myself a little bit after Gully.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, how many packs of Marlboros cuz she bought him.
Dennis
She could have gotten a new machine for the smoking section.
Byron
One sleeve longer than the other, stretched.
Dennis
Now that's the only time I tried to be a twin and it backfired. These Asians been doing it to their grandparents for two years. This girl knew me from Adam. Spotted me the second I said it and I don't know why. I don't know why I thought I was quick on my feet too because I remembered the door shutting going dodged that bullet. Like I don't know what to do now. Now I was so taken aback by the fact that she said she'd had sex thousands of times and it was just with one guy. She was actually a really probably quality girlfriend is all that me. And then they had just broken up. And so in my head I thought ah, this is going to get ugly.
Brett Vesely
And f that one up.
Dennis
I f that one up. Yeah, I can go back. I turn out to be anything, you know. I don't know. She had some sort of operation. I remember that wasn't a bad one. But it had to leave for a little while.
Brett Vesely
Oh, okay. It wasn't like, she became.
Dennis
No, no, no. She didn't transition. Okay.
Byron
Yeah. That just sounds.
Dennis
Hey, I don't know. She didn't transition.
Byron
She had to leave for a while on this operation.
Dennis
If Dua Leap asked me to transition, I'd do it.
Byron
No.
Brett Vesely
Yeah. She knows you look good in half shirts.
Dennis
I thought about it last night. When I'm watching, I'm like, what could she do that would make me say no? And, like. And I got myself all the way up to transitioning, and I'm like, man, that's what she wanted. I don't know if I'd lop it off, but I definitely go through the hormone treatments and grow some cancer. I'm in on that. Either way, it's an interesting weekend all the way around. Strange and glorious and a little depressing. Little disappointing. Sorry.
Radio Station Announcer
Arizona's most powerful, powerful rock radio station. All they show with none of the fluff.
Dennis
Let's get started.
Radio Station Announcer
There's more of the best of homebrew's morning sickness.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
You take a job. Nobody put a gun to your head to take a job. And then you complain about how hard the job is.
Byron
That's called work.
Dennis
That's why they call it work. They don't call it fun. What I've been bitching about with those teachers for the last 10 years. I'm like, quit complaining. You knew exactly how much your cruddy job paid. And if you don't like it, quit. And you know what I'm proud to say. Yesterday a report came out.
Byron
Over half.
Dennis
You're listening. You're listening to me. Over half of Arizona teachers considering quitting. You're welcome. I feel like the. I feel like you're. You're Union shop leader. Brett's girlfriend, Katie Hobbs did a task force and found over 51% of current teachers are considering leaving the profession. They said it was actually 54 of K through 12 and high school is 51. Said, what? What are you. Are you. You know that thing where they say not likely, likely, somewhat likely, very likely. They all clicked on somewhat or very likely over the next two years to not be there anymore. 70%.
Byron
But did they have the. What was the reason? They hate it.
Dennis
You don't get paid and it's a miserable job.
Brett Vesely
A bunch of little quirks.
Dennis
It's your job. The whole reason you have a job is for money. And if you're not getting paid and you're dealing with little pricks all day, like Brett says, 70% said that in the last year, it has crossed their mind to quit. On a day or I'm just out. And the majority of current teachers, 92% said the perception that they're making a difference in students lives is the only reason they're staying. Let me tell you this, you're not, you're not. That you're not that important. Of all the teachers, maybe one making a difference in every school there's a couple, usually one per school. That'll everybody's kind of like, he was great. I'll arrest you.
Brett Vesely
There's only one or two. Edward James almost from Stand By Me.
Dennis
That's why they make movies about those. They're very rare. And Stand By Me, the Michelle Pfeiffer. Oh, yeah, yeah. I tell you this, if you have a teacher that looked like Michelle Pfeiffer when she did that movie, I wouldn't ditch. I'd be in school every day. My attendance would be through the moon peak. Michelle Pfeiffer sitting there trying to teach me. I'm learning, I'm learning. That's what we need. You know what we need to do? Let's get these actresses that are complaining about how hard it is to be hot. Turn them into teachers. The attendance rate goes through the roof. And you know, teachers start, you know, realizing that and you're gonna get paid more when you look good too. 80% of the teachers say they feel burned out. Inadequate pay. 80% say that's the biggest reason. 80%. And I've been telling you guys to quit that job for the longest time. Hold them hostage. You have all the leverage. You keep saying stupid stuff like I'm.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Making a difference in that child's life.
Dennis
So my misery doesn't. You're making yourself miserable to make a difference in a kid's life. Don't, don't. You can make a difference and still get, you know, a decent, you know, you can make a difference in a Mexican child's life and work at Home Depot and get paid the exact same amount. I get emails. It used to be more end of the year, usually over the summer I got a couple, but probably 10 or 12 this year of saying I was listening to you talk about that. I quit my job as a teacher and now I'm doing this. Started my own company. This one guy's doing a gelato thing. He moved to, I don't know where, Kentucky or something. Started a gelato thing with my dad. We're making a ton of money, like good for you. But again, that's why I never had any sympathy for the public school teacher. When they said we don't get paid enough. I'm like, oh, did they take away pay when you were in college? Did you. Were they promising you like $200,000 a year in college and then when you got there, they gave you 30? No. So you knew you were gonna make 30?
Guest / Strom Thurman
Yeah.
Dennis
You spent 200 grand in college to make $30,000 a year. You're an idiot. That's all that is. That's just dumb. You know, you can't pay your college loans with a kid's difference. I made a difference in his life. Oh, that check don't cash. We need some money on that survey.
Brett Vesely
Brittany Zamora said she's likely to come back eventually.
Dennis
You know what? If I was a principal of a school, I'd give her a second chance. I'm all about second chances for people like Brittany.
John Holmberg
I would.
Dennis
I'd keep her away from the sixth graders. I put her right around, like junior high. She didn't like those old boys. She can't have the elementary school kids. She gets too turned on.
Byron
It's a pretty good gig. We've talked about this before. As far as the time spent, sure.
Dennis
You get 10 weeks and time off.
Byron
Eight to 10 weeks maybe in the summer. And then on top of all the other holidays.
Dennis
I'll stand up for him here. They deserve all that time off dealing with your prick kids. And I don't think they get enough time off. It's a nice schedule until you actually have to stand in one of those classrooms. You know who's not gonna do it again is Brittany Zamora. Have you let her out to teach again? She's not doing it again.
Brett Vesely
She's probably fans.
Dennis
Only fans. She's probably the safest teacher you could have in the room right now.
Byron
A lovely.
Dennis
She knows not to get too attached.
Byron
I don't think she has that decision. No, I want to go back to teaching.
Dennis
No, I know. I'm saying, though, we should probably be lenient about it and let her teach again. She's like, she ain't gonna get hit by lightning twice. She's not banging another 6 year old or whatever 6th grade kid. You watch now. We did. And plus, we'd have our eyes on her. We should take.
Brett Vesely
We would.
Dennis
We should. Oh, yeah, we would. We should have all of the teachers that have been in trouble for banging the kids, put them back in the classes. Just go. Don't. Don't do it. It's execution if you get it the second time. That would be a great idea. We free up some of the prison space. We let all the teachers that have dabbled with dating students back in the classroom and like, do it again, you get the death penalty. Okay, don't. Okay? I'm telling you right now, I'm not.
Byron
Good television series.
Dennis
And then we put up cameras and we start filming them and the sweats. Timmy, would you like to go up to the chalkboard and do that equation?
Byron
This week on Hard Knocking Boots.
Dennis
Just sit. We're gonna talk about the Civil War. God, you guys are hot. And the guy pokes his head and goes, don't, we're watching you. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. But it would be entertaining. The kids would be like, he can't do anything. They wouldn't touch him again. The odds of that happening twice are zero. Britney Zamora is not going back in that classroom. Like, aren't you the one that tried to. Yeah, I am. You're not doing that again, are you?
Byron
I'm older now. I've learned.
Dennis
I was dumb.
Brett Vesely
She's getting an only fans page.
Dennis
Yeah.
John Holmberg
And you can have that.
Dennis
Damn right. And if I'm a teacher, maybe that's it.
Byron
Maybe it's like, oh, all we need to fix is you can have your only fans.
Dennis
Yeah. We let them have a secondary thing. But most of them you don't want to see. Most of them are tubs of goo, you know, and they quit on life because their job sucks. They. They're not. They're those 28 year old women that look like they're 54. They're. They're in constant. Like they're in Christmas sweater gear all year. Like their clothes look like ugly sweaters for Christmas without decorations.
Byron
Coffee breath.
Dennis
Coffee. Yeah, their hair's that. I keep it short cause it's more manageable. You're in your 20s, you're not supposed to do that yet. You have a perm. I know. Yeah. Anyway, you're not going to make an only fan space. The ones that have an only fans page that would actually take are quitting teaching. Why would you stand in a room with a bunch of pricks if you can make. You can.
Byron
That's your charity work?
Dennis
Yeah. I'm ditching the rats. I got no only fans. You kids are done. You make a difference difference in a kid's life. But your cans pay the bills.
Brett Vesely
You don't care about the kids anymore.
Dennis
Brady, you have a good idea putting all those pedder asses back in school like that. I think that's solid. Oh yes, that's a good one. This one says they're so hard up for teachers. They're giving college credits to high school students that are going for teaching. My daughter's 18, had enough college credits to actually get a teaching job. A few of her friends did it and they all had. They all have quit. Yeah, Teaching stinks.
Byron
Yeah, but you don't want to do.
Dennis
That, you know, an 18 year old.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
Being a high school teacher, Samora's a bad idea. Oh, my teacher's 19. We had a 24 year old fall for a 12 year old. That was national news. 19.
Byron
We had tried to implement like 27 was the minimum, tops.
Dennis
Yeah, 26. 27. It makes me wonder though, Brett, because you and I went to Rhodes Junior High at the same time. There was a couple of young teachers and then a couple of those PE coaches that I'm pretty sure. I'm not saying. I'm just saying Coach Morgan was an absolute adonis. He looked like the ultimate warrior.
Brett Vesely
He had no business teaching, no inner staff.
Dennis
8Th and 9th grade girls, inner staff. He was dabbling in the. The teen market. There was no reason for him to be in that school that much. He was a bouncer at cowboys.
Brett Vesely
Oh, yeah.
Byron
I think. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Fake orange tan, squeezing into his little Fiero.
Dennis
He's stripping a little on the side, doing some dancing. A couple of those ninth grade girls I think might have. Back in the 80s, back when it was they made movies about this, we were kind of allowed to do it. I'm pretty sure we had a couple of incidents where teachers and students got together.
Brett Vesely
Oh, with him?
Dennis
Yeah. I actually know of one. She was a college teacher though, and the guy I worked with was 18, she was 30 something. And he said, let's go over to this, my teacher's house. And we're like, what, at the end of a Tony Roma shift? Let's go over to her house. She wants you to go to pool party. And so like seven of us went over, like, this isn't much of a party. It's just us, us. And she was trying to have like, she was trying to get with him. And he was a freshman in college. She was older, but. And he wasn't like anything special. It was Yellow Hand, the guy that had to clean out all the tampon boxes. And he's like, I'm a mess. Like she's offering grades and stuff. And I remember him telling me about it. She was like, all he had to do was sleep with her and he'd get grades and she could manipulate and he didn't. Yeah, he did.
Brett Vesely
Oh, okay, good.
Dennis
But then she started to worry about, like, getting fired. And it got really tense. But we were going over. She had a nice place. We were going over her house pretty much every Thursday and Friday after work to swim in her place. And she liked music we liked. So. Yeah. But she was. It was awkward because you're like. You're the. You're a teacher at a community college.
Byron
Buddy in college. He dated a teacher in high school. When he was in high school, and it was okay. They. It was a smaller town.
Dennis
Yeah.
Byron
But they knew it was happening. He was the football star.
Dennis
Yeah. She was that beautiful girl we met back at the Hawaii Marathon. Her teacher was 51 years old, and she was 18. She had to wait to graduate. She was moving in with him, and nobody batted an eye. They thought it started the day after she graduated. Like, how long has this been going? She's going a little long. I've met girls who have said out loud. It was actually at one of our beer parties, one of the girls came up and said something we were talking about. She goes, I had sex with my teacher when I was 16. We were gonna move in together. We broke up. And I'm like, wait a minute. What? Yep. That was how I did high school. Sleeping with her teacher. It happens more than.
Brett Vesely
We did that at Rhodes.
John Holmberg
Well.
Byron
And it's true.
Dennis
We did. Yeah. Old Z did it. Yeah, he did it. Yeah.
Brett Vesely
It was in the paper.
Dennis
I remember going, yeah. I hated that guy. He ended up owning one of the Stings and got caught and worked at a Circle K on Power Road.
Byron
It's a true story.
Dennis
It's a true story.
John Holmberg
Yeah. We were around.
Dennis
Yes. And it wasn't that big a deal. They just. They just added it. You can't work here anymore.
Byron
Knock it off.
Dennis
Yeah. And then on your way to the river.
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dennis
We would stop by that Circle K.
John Holmberg
And say hi to him.
Brett Vesely
Need ice or smokes? Yeah, no, I'm good.
Dennis
No, I'm good. Where are the coolers, Mr. Z? You don't have to call me that anymore. You don't have to call. Oh, yeah, sorry. Circle K employee. Where are the coolers, douche? Oh, that's the best. We saw him out there at that Circle K. It was about three years after he had been kicked out for boning one of the kids. And it was voluntary. And to his credit, they were like. It wasn't. They were dating, but it was junior high.
Byron
If you're gonna continue dating, you can't be a teacher.
Dennis
Right. If you want to keep dating, you have to make a choice. 14 year old or your job. That's it. I'll see you guys later. You can't stop love.
Brett Vesely
But him, well, he was five. Coach Morgan I could see, you know.
Dennis
But him, Coach Morgan didn't. The problem was Coach Morgan.
Brett Vesely
It's like Shannon.
Dennis
He didn't lock one down. He did. Little dude.
Brett Vesely
A little dude with long hair and a mustache.
Dennis
Yeah, it looked like he did. Coach Morgan didn't lock one down. He played the field.
Byron
Mr. Z did.
Dennis
Or more. No, Mr. Z got. He fell in love.
Brett Vesely
Mr. Z took whatever he could take.
Dennis
I was in eighth grade. He was my eighth grade teacher.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, mine too.
Dennis
I think it happened the year we got out. Yeah, because I was driving when I was 16. We'd go to the river all the time. He was out by then and we saw him at that Circle K. And then it just became a mandatory stop on the way to the river to go say hi to Mr. Z. Hey, Mr. Z. You working today? Heading to the river where all the teen girls are. Want to come along? Want to tag along? You're a swinger. You can make make it happen.
Radio Station Announcer
Mary effing holidays from the Big Red Radio. Morning sickness.
Brett Vesely
This segment brought to you guys by mo Money Pond, 12th street and Indian School. Now whatever you're looking for, it doesn't matter if it's electronics, jewelry, tools, pretty much, you name it, they got it there. All right, check them out online at mo money pawn.com or like I said, just go to the store and check them out. 12th street in Indian school, it's Mo Money Pond.
Dennis
Well, hell, Tony Romas, all the waiters boned the hostesses. It was horrifying. They were all in their mid 20s. These hostess were like 15 and 16 years old. Was terrible what was going on there, especially for me. Cuz I was one of the 16 and 17 year old boys that was trying to get with these guys. I couldn't compete. These guys weren't killing it. Mr. Z, you know what? I kind of want to go buy that, that Circle K again. I bet the area is all grown up. It used to sit all by itself. Yeah, it was like the last stop before you got to user. Oh, it's.
Brett Vesely
It's all grown up.
Dennis
Oh, I'm sure I haven't been out there forever, but we went.
Brett Vesely
Oh, store manager.
Dennis
All right, I'm running this show. Oh, that was some of the most fun. Just all of us wandering in there.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Hey.
John Holmberg
Hi guys.
Dennis
If it isn't the disgraced English teacher.
John Holmberg
How's Stephanie?
Dennis
You guys still seeing each other? Or she. When does she get out of school? The coolers are over there.
Brett Vesely
She's a sophomore now. Got two more years.
Dennis
I'm going to marry her. Oh, I'm sure she's real excited about that. You know, you being a clerk and all.
Guest / Strom Thurman
But.
Dennis
Yeah, you put him back in the school there. He's not going to do that again. So all these teachers, we should get all the disgraced ones and put them back and go one more chance. We're giving you a second chance. You're gonna get the karate pay. And they could never fire up about how little they get paid. Hey, wait a second now. What are you talking about? How you do your job. You get paid what we pay. You're lucky to be here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then they teach and they do their job. And if any of them screwed up again, straight to the electric chair.
Byron
I could just see them. How the kids know they can distract their teachers that. Whether they're a war vet or. Tell us the times that you were, you know, they're asking, hey, tell us.
Dennis
The time you were dating. One rule would have to be the kids can't talk about the thing. You can never bring up that. And all the teachers have the thing that no kids can talk about it. You can, you know, huddle up in the hallways and assume stuff. No kids can bring up to the teacher the thing. You can't trigger them.
Brett Vesely
Yeah, like kids are gonna pay attention to that.
John Holmberg
Well, that's detention.
Dennis
You bring up the thing, it would be once or twice worth it. You get that detention and you know it's immediately trouble. Don't bring up the thing. This is not a bad plan because they always say jail's supposed to reform people.
Byron
A lot of teachers?
Dennis
No, better. There's an awful lot of them. There's a whole lot, you know, website dedicated to it. You know, Brittany Zamora, I don't think she's gonna do it again. And if she was a good teacher, going in, plop her back down in there and one eye on her. Just always have the, you know, the principal from Breakfast Club come by and do the little thing. Got my eyes on you. Keep an eye on her. She's not doing it for you. And if she does, I mean, directly to the electric chair. Yeah. Or only fans, But I mean, OnlyFans is just so over saturated with. I mean, Brittany Zamora is a hot 6th grade teacher. She's not a hot. Only fans girl.
Brett Vesely
No, but I think, I think after all the news stories and we've heard about her and talked about her. I'd sign up for a month. Just check it out, you know?
Byron
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
For a month. Yeah. Curiosity.
Dennis
You get a month membership?
Brett Vesely
Yeah, I get a month.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Yeah.
Dennis
I want to see.
Brett Vesely
I'm not saying I'm going past that, but I don't want to get that first.
Dennis
That little lady snooch for 30 days. What was that? Sixth grader.
Brett Vesely
It's not enough for a month.
Dennis
What if it's just butchered up? That sixth grader did. Did a number on that prison. That's a big Montana. Oh, I would tighten up there. It's just like nobody's punching the sixth graders.
Brett Vesely
Like the decorator.
Dennis
What if he just tattered it up like a big Montana and left it for dead? And she puts that on Only fans. It's like, I got a 30 day membership. I don't want the second day.
Brett Vesely
They got trials on there.
Byron
Let's see.
Dennis
Yeah. Can you do a free month?
Brett Vesely
Yeah.
Dennis
Let me see. Like a drug deal. Yeah. So we know. Yeah, that's a good idea, Brett. It's one or the other you get. You can get out of jail today. Either got a dedicate your life to only fans, or we're putting you back into the classroom. And if you do it again, it's the electric chair.
Byron
You sign up.
Dennis
Brett, man, I should be governor or something.
Brett Vesely
What's that?
Byron
You can get a month free by referring a friend.
Dennis
Yeah, I'm in. Thanks, buddy. That's what a friend would do. And I'll refer Brady's hillbilly cousins. There you go.
Byron
I might as well sign up fund.
Dennis
You're gonna end up paying for it. We'd like to continue our subscription, family, but this 30 day trial is over. That 1995 is really taking a bite out of our wallet. If anybody in the Bogan family, especially your country club types, would like to donate, we'd love to keep our masturbatory situation in check. Anyway, put her back in the classroom.
Byron
I agree.
Dennis
This plan has legs. I'm not even seeing a downside. We should do it with everybody. You give everybody a second chance and put them right back where they were. And if they do it again. Electric chair.
Byron
Okay.
Dennis
Nobody's gonna do it again, I think, right? Father Dale, you're back in. One more eyeball that we don't like, you're going to the chair. Oh, okay. Okay.
Brett Vesely
Giving them the dress again at St.
Dennis
Tim's I'd give them right back in there. That's the place that should be given second chances. If anything, the Catholic church Should be like, we get it. You're allowed back in. You do it again, you even start leaning.
Brett Vesely
You did that.
Byron
They were like, I'm sorry, we've got too many priests.
Dennis
Yeah, we've got an awful lot of priests, but suddenly we have an influx of 1100 priests per major metropolitan. We're back. All right. All your victims are grown up now. He'd be like.
Brett Vesely
He'd be like, booger and Revenge of the nerds. I've been out Coleman high schools all day.
Dennis
That's what the Breakfast Club principal says. I find out, you bang one more kid, I'm coming in here and I'm knocking skulls. I got my eyes on you, you know. What the. What did you say? The bull in the horns? Yeah, whatever it is.
Commercial Announcer
Yeah.
Brett Vesely
Don't mess with the bull, son. You get the horns, get the horns.
Dennis
It's a fact. This is a solid plan. I mean, other than violent crimes and stuff. I like this. Especially those girl teachers that fell for the. You know, the ones that really are kind of heroes to me.
Brett Vesely
Like, you know, Mary Kay Letourneau or whatever her name was, the og you.
Dennis
Know, the one we remember most because that relationship worked out until it. But you know, the 12, the ones that turn the 12 and 13 year old boys into heroes and then, you know, kind of mess them up a little bit. But we're all gonna get messed up by a chick eventually. You put them back in there and say, don't do it again or you're going. I mean, we'd be. We'd be smoking so many, we'd have to do a couple right off the bat, like, set them up, a couple sting operations. And if they fall in, then we gotta do some live televised teacher cooking. Put them right there in that electric chair. Jesus Christ. They're serious. All of them would straighten right the f up and we could pay them 27,000 a year and they'd never ever.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Go, we're gonna march for more money.
Dennis
Oh, you're lucky to be here.
Brett Vesely
They'd have a brazen bull at the Penn rallies and stuff.
Dennis
That would be the name of the mascot, the Dobson Brazen Bulls.
Byron
Oh, no.
Dennis
Oh, they do it for half. Just be like, if you want to, you know, passionately teach, that's fine. 27 grand a year. It's like, that's your.
Byron
And I'm out.
Dennis
Yeah, you get out of jail. They would never complain about the fear.
Brett Vesely
And they would need an only fans page.
Dennis
That guillotine hanging over them all the time would make them real good at their jobs and focus heavily on not screwing up again. John Holmberg's teaching guillotine second chance program. I like it for non violent offenders. Put them right back out there. You get your teaching license back. And let all these normal people that are thinking about quitting teaching because I've been telling them to for the longest time, you can finally go, what's the.
Byron
Toughest part of your job? I gotta say, having sex with adults.
Dennis
Yeah.
Byron
Yeah.
Dennis
Just, you know, finding the other adults attractive's really been rough. But I get killed if I do it my way. So. Yeah, that's been hard. Real hard. So I've been celibate. I've been pretty celibate. The hardest part is keeping my hands off. I was a beautiful little age angel. That's been tough. But you know, I have to go to old Sparky if I touch one wrong. So I just keep my. I just put my hands in oven mitts all day and kind of walk around it. It's a good plan. Second chance. And you know what? It's also empathetic. It feeds the beast of the people who are like, everybody needs a second chance. And I agree. I do think that you screw up, you should have a second chance.
Byron
But kind of good it's going to come around on that. That thing that. But you know, we've also thought, ah, man, some of that stuff is not curable.
John Holmberg
Sure.
Byron
I mean, like where being attracted to kids draw the line on something. Yeah, like the lower the line you draw. Brad, it was just one baby.
Dennis
Well, if it's baby guy should be smoked in the first place. I'm talking about teachers who maybe dabbled in dating. The consequences are death. Don't do it again or we'll kill you right on the spot. No trial, no nothing. You're like, you did it again.
Brett Vesely
Straight to execution.
Dennis
That's right. And dry sponge Percy style. We're going in, we're gonna cook that thing. Brady's gonna put you in a pit in the backyard and have you for Thanksgiving.
John Holmberg
Yep.
Dennis
Solved yet. 24 years of solving the world's problems. Does anybody care?
John Holmberg
Nope.
Dennis
Good idea.
Brett Vesely
Can P. Diddy get out of your car, becomes a sex ed teacher?
Dennis
You know what? He's not gonna do it again if you let Pete. All right? We're gonna clear you of everything. You have one more party. We're gonna Percy Greenmile cook your ass dry sponge. You heard me, Diddy. Your name is Sean. Now you're all done with the nonsense, we'll let you go. We're cooking you if you screw up.
Brett Vesely
Meanwhile, R. Kelly's going.
Dennis
Ain't that a bitch?
John Holmberg
I'm stuck in here, God damn it. Yeah.
Dennis
You know who's been real good about drugging people since he got out? Bill Cosby. Haven't heard of Peep. Hey, can't find his bills, but still, he ain't gonna do that again. That's a good idea. And I know there's a lot of second offenders and stuff, but it's because there's no consequences. For your second time, death penalty if you go. If you go to jail twice for the same thing. Death penalty. I liked it. First one's free.
Byron
Back in the day from yesterday's discussion in Rome. If you did something to your father or grandfather.
John Holmberg
Yep.
Byron
Get in the bag.
Dennis
Get in the bag with a muskrat and a wild dog, a whole bunch of snakes and a chicken. I don't even know what the chicken is. It's dog food just to keep the dog alive longer. I like that. Some of that medieval punishment. Just spin a wheel. You drew the wolf skin sacker of dog snake, chicken. What does that mean? Well, you shouldn't have to touch that kid is what it means. You got to get in the bag with the dog. Are you gonna get in a bag with a wild dog and we're gonna sew it up, put you in water?
John Holmberg
Shouldn't have done it.
Dennis
We warned you. If the consequences are clear, they're not doing it. Man, this is a good idea.
Byron
What?
Dennis
What does that say?
Brett Vesely
I think it's talking about, like, the women teachers out there. I didn't know how you could spin it. That's why I'm like, I do not.
Dennis
He's doing the quote of how hard their job would be, and he's like, oh, I have to. From here on out, I just have to have a penis with a hair on it or around it. Oh, gross. Oh, they're so hairy, these adults. Well, the alternative is death. Try to talk your new boyfriend into shaving. Anyway, solve. Did another one. Cleared out some of the prison population, Cut the teacher's pay in half. Still getting the same teachers.
Byron
Win, win.
Dennis
I don't see a loss in any of this. Kid's head on a swivel. Now, the one problem we might have is that the kids might set up some teachers for dying. You know, you don't like a teacher like Mr. Craig. I'd have definitely said he touched me if it had been a lifetime.
Brett Vesely
Chair Z, I would have done that for.
Dennis
Yeah, there's a couple of them we'd have been like, all right, kids, you have to have some concrete proof here. But we have cameras everywhere. At the end of the day, we.
Byron
Get might lose a few good teachers, you know?
Dennis
Sure. Well, we're gonna lose them no matter what. Toss the cell. At the end of the day, go through the cell phone. All right, let's take a look. Make sure you're not texting Billy or little Kenny.
Byron
You just have to maybe apply the same thing. Kids, if you lie about it, death.
Dennis
Okay, that's fair. Oh, electric chair. If we find out you're trying to set up this pedder ass for another one, you're going to the chair too. A lot of guillotines floating around this school of mine.
Brett Vesely
Peter says put the teachers in the classrooms for. Put them. Put them in classrooms full of Asians. All petite. Half are adults.
Dennis
Oh, no. Freight trains. Ideas coming through. Okay, so yes, we load the school with hired 30 year old Asian girls who look young. You can touch one of them. That's the one. We put a plant in here for you and she gets citizenship. This is brilliant. She gets to come over here and live for free if she's just bait in a classroom for a teacher that likes kids.
Byron
Oh, man.
Dennis
But she's 30, Brady. So it's okay. Here we go. Somebody had to bring politics into this. If Biden can bite random babies multiple times, Britney should be free and get her job back. That's right, because Biden sniffs baby heads. It is a little creepy. Anyway, my second chance program has some. Has some juice.
Radio Station Announcer
Arizona's most powerful, powerful. Right radio station. The Best of the Morning Sickness is on the air.
John Holmberg
Do any of you people do any actual work?
Radio Station Announcer
The Best of Homburg's Morning Sickness.
Byron
It's time for another thrilling episode of Jessica Simpson. Mary Tramp the Once. Virginia. Jessica is now going to shill away for edible body products.
John Holmberg
Yeah, she was a virgin like, and bragged about it until her marriage, Right? She wasn't gonna ever. And that's why Nick asked her to marry him so fast. He had to get that.
Byron
You may have heard Jessica was coming up with a quote. Kissable, lickable fragrance. It'll come in three flavors, creamy, dreamy and juicy. But the dessert line, which it'll be called, goes a little further than that. It also include whipped body cream, chocolate body gloss, powdered sugar, body shimmer, and pheromone belly button fragrance.
John Holmberg
Me like, what good is it if she's not there? Yeah, I was just gonna say it's not gonna do you much Good.
Dennis
If it's not on her dessertbeauty.com. okay.
Byron
If you want to check it out.
John Holmberg
She modeling the stuff?
Byron
I doubt it.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Damn it.
Byron
But of course, you know, she's recommending this for married couples.
Dennis
Of course.
Byron
To keep the Mary the marriage.
John Holmberg
Because she's an expert now. Yeah, she's.
Byron
All of a sudden she's not an expert. But she has found that Nikki likes some of these things.
John Holmberg
Nicholas likes to lick her. Imagine that.
Dennis
Nikki like to licky.
John Holmberg
He could be covered in dog feces. He'd lick Jessica Simpson.
Byron
Really?
Guest / Strom Thurman
Nicky like that?
John Holmberg
I look anything off you, baby?
Guest / Strom Thurman
Like this.
John Holmberg
Oh, I love my Jesse.
Byron
Well, the 2004 Grammy Awards went down and congratulations. Beyonce Knowles.
Dennis
Beyonce.
Byron
Beyonce got five awards which ties with Alicia Keys, Nora Jones and Lauren Hill.
John Holmberg
Yeah, they've all the Grammys.
Byron
Never congratulations to Metallica. They got better. Best metal performance.
John Holmberg
And how about the worst tribute to the Beatles of all time? When they did the. The first thing I saw was Sting. Dave Matthews, someone I've never heard of, and Vince Gill. Yeah, and Dave Matthews was doing his typical.
Byron
He got one for grave.

He's doing his. Yeah, he wrote a song about a monster truck. And he's got his. He's got him stupid Adam Sandler sounding voice.
Dennis

John Holmberg
It's the same thing now he used. He's a parody of himself.
Guest / Strom Thurman

Byron

John Holmberg
Good.
Byron

John Holmberg

Dennis
Meatball, wake up.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Oh, made by.
Byron
Meatball. Meatball was four years old.
Dennis
Joke.
Byron
He was Adam Sandler. Also had the father of Meatball in one of his other movies. Mr. Beefy was in Little Nicky. He was the ring bearer at Adam's wedding.
John Holmberg
Oh no. Did you say Little Nicky?
Dennis
And Larry's in the room, cuz that's me.
Guest / Strom Thurman
My dad's a devil. And my little meatball dog is gone.
Dennis
Mr. Be.
Guest / Strom Thurman
He went down with my dad to the devil land.
John Holmberg
Now he's not even sad all day long.
Byron
But Adam has another bulldog that's still.
Guest / Strom Thurman
He's in a better place now. I'm just gonna see him down there with my dad.
John Holmberg
Who's your dad?
Byron
Okay, Meatball's brother's still alive, which is. Was a wedding. His wife, Matzah Ball.
John Holmberg
No, that's true.
Byron
Matzo ball was a wedding gift from Jackie. Okay, and now for some pearls and wisdom from Paris Hilton, the Jewish bulldog. These are famous quotes by Paris or not so famous. I will stay with low jeans until I have a kid. Then I'll have to have a kind of special low riding maternity gene wear Gross. Never drink Diet Coke. Diet Coke is for fat people.

John Holmberg

Byron
I don't have one type of guy. I've had so many types of boyfriends. I like all kinds of guys. They just have to be hot.
John Holmberg
She's done a lot of guys, done a lot of people, all different looking.
Byron
I used to have fun and dress up and that was my life. But now I've grown up a lot. I'm still gonna be me. And I've decided to change my way, the way I dress. She gets close to a million dollars for writing these little sayings. What?
John Holmberg
What?
Dennis
For what?
Byron
She's getting close to a million dollars to write. This insanity also reveals that when she gets married, she wants wants to have a boy named London and a girl named China. And that she takes a shower before she takes a bath when she feels really dirty.
John Holmberg
So there'll be the Paris Hilton, the London Hilton and the China Hilton.
Byron
And finally, the horror. Horror of what happened to you.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Lord.
John Holmberg
Somebody get a wallet. He's having a seizure. Stick in his mouth.
Byron
You will after I say this. She says her hair is actually curly.
John Holmberg
Wow, you're right.
Guest / Strom Thurman

John Holmberg
A million dollars for this.
Byron
A lot of people. Congratulations to Ashton Kutcher.
John Holmberg
He does a lot of people.
Dennis
The worst answer ever given.
Byron
I'll give you that. You and I, Jack, put this out.
John Holmberg
And we'll buy that stupid book.
Byron
Yeah, maybe. This is a pretty cool Super Bowl. Was broadcast in mainland China this year. The game was completely called by commentators Han Kwan Shing and Chad Lewis. Really tied to the Philadelphia Eagles. He speaks fluent Mandarin Chinese. In China, football is called Misha quinling key.
John Holmberg
And all the other guy did was go, what happened, Chad? Because they don't know what football is in China.
Byron
Listen to me, Chad.
Guest / Strom Thurman
What was that?
John Holmberg
It's a pass.
Byron
Football is called mesha quinling key, which means American olive shaped ball game, by the way. Rugby, which is a bit more popular in China, is called olive shape ball game.
John Holmberg
Really?
Byron
Yeah. So they just.
John Holmberg
They're not really a little bit smart in China is what you're saying?
Byron
Yeah. Chinese censors were offended by something they saw during the super bowl broadcast.
John Holmberg
But it wasn't the movie.
Byron
It wasn't Janet Jackson's bejeweled white right nipple. It was the right to vote advertisement which featured a video montage that included the white world famous image of the Chinese protester standing in front of the tank during the 1989 Tiananmen Square.
Dennis
Chad.
Guest / Strom Thurman
The white is shoot at I don't know Jin Chawa.
Dennis

Guest / Strom Thurman

Byron
Major queen and key.
John Holmberg
Look at him throw that olive shaped ball.
Byron
Chat place bets.
John Holmberg
Now who will win Patriot Ooh or Panther Rock. Let's battle. It's not actually a battle. Shun Chin Chai. What's going on, Chad? That's all he could have said. They've never seen football there. Hurry.
Byron
Must pressure. Yes.
John Holmberg
And then they did launch. Their Corollas are very very wrinkle free, Chad. Yes, they are very wrinkle free. Very good starch. Very good. Very nice starch. Yes. They have a guy on the team who does that. Chinese? No, but he should be.
Byron
They actually had Internet trivia questions and winners got Rick Shaw rides.
John Holmberg
Oh, he landed on the grass and make a nasty grass day.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Now we get that right out.
John Holmberg
Just tons of them wanting to go clean him. He's so dirty. He's close. Do he change at halftime, Chad? No, he won't change at halftime. He wear that dirty shirt.
Dennis
Oh, this embarrassing bring too cleaner.
Byron
I guess the Anaheim might Mighty Ducks had an exhibition game there and they ate the team.
John Holmberg
The delicious Ducks. Not that so mighty after all.
Dennis
Delicious.
John Holmberg
Thank you, Brady. Mighty dogs were eating. That's two quality ones. That was solid there. That was pretty good. Because they love the duck.
Byron
Try the veal.
Dennis
The mighty opaque kingdom.
John Holmberg
What are you eating, Chad? Little John Sebastian Chiguar. I think he had the richest.
Byron
Excuse me, Quang. This doesn't taste like Coke.
John Holmberg
Me Chinese.
Dennis
Me for a joke put TV in Chad's Coke.
John Holmberg
Thank you, Brady. I couldn't get through it. I didn't expect to be in second grade there.
Dennis
You know that was immature because Larry.
Brett Vesely

Byron
That'Ll be a a song Pretty soon with MC Mr. Blackwell came out released his worst and best dressed list. Everyone's pounding that today.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Byron
What? And of course all that. He doesn't do them anymore.
John Holmberg
Carol Channing read him. Read him. Yesterday I watched that on tv.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Really?
John Holmberg
Please.
Dennis
Hello.
John Holmberg
It was like oh my God, it's elderly Bill Walton in a dress.
Byron
Number one was Paris Hilton.
John Holmberg
Paris Hilton is number one. You're Carol Channing. Haven't you been dead since like 87?
Dennis
No, please.
John Holmberg
Then she's saying hello Dolly for a half an hour and talk. She's the one who didn't have sex with her husband for like 47 years, isn't she? Oh yeah, he was. He was impotent and afraid and ashamed of sex and didn't do it. And she wrote a book. When they got divorced 47 years later that they never did it, I thought.
Byron
The that was because lamb chop became between them. Lamb Chop?
John Holmberg
Sherry Lewis, totally different person.
Byron
That's right.
John Holmberg
Still a horribly ugly old blonde woman.
Dennis
But same voice pretty much.
John Holmberg
Please, Brady, it's been 47 years. Will you knock the cobwebs out now?
Byron
I need to.
Dennis
Carol Channing's known for one thing.
Byron
Sorry about that lamb chop reference.
John Holmberg
Yeah, Carol Channing with that voice became a Broadway singing star, was famous.
Dennis
And I remember when I was a.
John Holmberg
Kid, my grandpa used to have watch Carol Channing. It seemed like she was on every time I was over there. And you just hear well, hello Dolly. And I'm a kid watching Carol Channing, that's like scarring me. And then I have to hear her on the stupid. But who's number one on the Blackwell thing?
Byron
Paris Hilton.
John Holmberg
Paris Hilton is the big one. What was number 10? Yeah, who's the worst number?
Byron
10Th word. Laura Flynn Boyle. Oh, beautiful face but no taste. What a waste.
John Holmberg
Food too. Please Brady, leave it to the experts.
Byron
Courtney Love, number nine. Undisputed queen of tack.
John Holmberg
Now Courtney Love hasn't done anything.
Byron
Melanie Griffith, number eight. A botox cockatoo in a painting by Dalai Lama.
Dennis
It was funny.
John Holmberg
Is Blackwell's been like almost dead for four or five years now, hasn't he? He can't even get out of painting.
Byron
He's still alive. But he's not. He is not in the best of health.
John Holmberg
Can't get out of bed, I don't think. Who are the rest of them?
Dennis
Round them up.
Byron
Madonna and Britney's tied for a second.
John Holmberg
Really?
Byron
Someone arrest the kissing cousins of culture crime.
John Holmberg
Oh boy.
Byron
Shania Twain, number three, buckled bombs and country fried gitch.
John Holmberg
I don't get it. I don't get it.
Byron
Means bad taste.
John Holmberg
I know, but I don't understand why this guy's famous.
Byron
He had designed a couple of gowns way back when. I just thought he was dresses a.
John Holmberg
Loud gay guy that people laughed at once. And then he got a job doing it for good.
Byron
You know Diana Ross, you know, had her extreme DUI case in Arizona. She's got some more stuff to cope with. The loss of her ex husband, Ernie. I think it's Nais, a rugged Norwegian outdoorsy type. Died in a mountain climbing accident near Cape Town, South Africa. Details are Sketchy. At this point, all we know is the obvious that he fell to his death. Diana and Arnie were married in 85, got divorced almost four years ago. They have two sons.
John Holmberg
And that's why she was drunk in Tucson?
Byron
No. She's dealing with this whole case and now she's got to deal with her ex. But I don't think that would be, you know, if he was an ax. Who knows how close they were.
John Holmberg
I never know. I never understand his stories when they take these twists.
Byron
She's not only dealing with the drunk case, now the death of her ex husband, she's dealing with.
John Holmberg
That happened a long time ago.
Byron
Why is that so hard to understand?
John Holmberg
When did it happen? Didn't you say it happened like four years ago?
Byron
Never mind.
John Holmberg
They were divorced. We talk about Diana Ross.
Guest / Strom Thurman
What happened?
John Holmberg
Eric, who is this woman?
Byron
You guys are idiots. You guys are ID 10 teams.
John Holmberg
So wait, Carol. Carol Channing's husband is dead?
Byron
Yes.
John Holmberg
And it got damn drunk in Tucson. What does lamb chop have to do with all this? Take a pill, Brady.
Byron
That's about it. Well, to rugged outdoorsman. Let's get back to the. Another rugged outdoorsman, Ted Nugent.
Dennis
Yes.
Byron
Needed 40 stitches to close a gash in his leg, which he gave himself with a chainsaw while filming his VH1 reality series, Surviving Nugent. BH was taping. Man. Ted was right back. Back in front of the cameras with a brace and a leg after getting the stitches. Nearly sold his leg off.
John Holmberg
That's funny. Well, it's not.
Dennis
It'll be good TV though, if you haven't seen it.
Byron
The show features a bunch of people living in Ted's Michigan farm trying to win money while Ted basically berates them and.
John Holmberg
And cuts his legs off. That's a great show. I haven't seen it. Is it on already? Yeah, I've never seen it last season.
Byron
Prior installment ran in October. That's a two hour special. The one they're filming right now will air beginning in April.
John Holmberg
I've never seen the Ted Nugent show. What I love is the middle of the wilderness with Ted Nugent. There's a black guy at Ted's house.
Byron
The other one I saw, he was on horseback. Ted was with a paintball rifle. And they had to run there on foot. And he basically had shooting.
John Holmberg
Ted's gathering people.
Byron
He hunted pretty much. They had bales of hay to hide behind and he'd smoke them out of there.
John Holmberg
He just tortures them. Are you kidding me?
Byron
No, it's great.
Dennis
That's not great. It's illegal in 47 states.
Byron
The one girl was a vegetarian, and he's making her gut the deer that they got.
Guest / Strom Thurman
And she's like, I'm out.
Byron
I'm out. You tap out, basically, if you can't take it anymore.
John Holmberg
That's horrible. Who signs up for that? And what black guy is getting his buddies?
Byron
The black guy got whatever you call it when you immunity that day because he ate the deer with Ted and his wife. Real.
John Holmberg
You know, they shared a moment, too. They were sitting in the truck together and he's, like, blaring some, like, rock music. And the black guy's just shaking me.
Dennis
Out of his element.
John Holmberg
Who signed the black guy up for that? Hey, man, you've always liked Ted Nugent, haven't you?
Dennis
No.
John Holmberg
You sign up and live with him for a while. Yeah, I should live in the wilderness with Ted Nugget. Nugent.
Dennis
Whatever.
John Holmberg
It's free. How does the black guy get involved? I don't know. How does anybody get involved but the black guy especially? It's like having a Chinese guy hanging out.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Thought Ted, I rub all your stuff. Wang dang.
Byron
Sweet.
Guest / Strom Thurman
Poon tang, baby.
Dennis
Thank you, Kwan. Whatever.
John Holmberg
And that's on again in April. I gotta find this VH1.
Dennis
I've heard a lot of good things about it.
John Holmberg
The black guy at Ted's house.
Dennis
Something wrong there.
John Holmberg
There's your entertainment draw. Well done, Brady.
Byron
Black scratch fever.
John Holmberg
It's 98 KUPD.

This episode of “Holmberg’s Morning Sickness” is characteristically wild, blending Arizona-centric banter, irreverent social commentary, and comedic riffs on pop culture, local news, and nostalgia. John Holmberg and his co-hosts dive into everything from “super fit grandmas” with thousands of lovers, to weird food facts, infamous teacher scandals, and musings about failed restaurants poised for comebacks. Regular segments include 80s and pop-culture trivia games, plus recurring satirical characters (like “Super Genius” and ghostly politicians) who drop in to stir up the morning chaos.

This episode showcases “Holmberg’s Morning Sickness” at its most unfiltered: careening through biting satire, nostalgia, and pop-culture, skewering societal shifts from “hot grandma” influencers to the pitfalls of modern education and resurrecting notorious 80s brands. Listeners get a mix of absurd and laugh-out-loud moments, slapstick games, dark anecdotes, and razor-sharp mockery of everything and everyone—including themselves.
Note: Adverts, intros, and outros were omitted. The summary maintains the tongue-in-cheek, sometimes edgy tone of the show, and captures its irreverent, conversational style.
