The amazing people at the Core Institute, life can throw you a curveball now and again. One day you're trucking along, feeling great. Next day your dog smashes into your head and knocks you cold. Or like a KUPD listener told me this week, his dog did a sprint across the backyard directly into the side of his wife's leg and blew her knee up. She needed that need to get fixed and fixed right? Two years later, she's running like she used to again. And it's all thanks to the Core Institute. I went through it, too. And you can get rid of your pain and start saying, yes, I can to all the things you want to do.
Larry McFeely
And.
Brady Bogan
And all you have to do is trust the experts at the Core Institute. Head there right now. The Core Institute.com.
Trish
Do not listen to this while driving or when full alertness is needed.
Brady Bogan
The rest of home birth's morning sickness. This is the Big Red radio, and I have allergies. And you have allergies, and you have allergies.
Larry McFeely
I mentioned it yesterday. I'm like, hmm, I'm starting to smell citrus in the air.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, I know it. And my neighborhood is just loaded with orange trees. That's all I smell is oranges. You can smell the citrus. Trish, why do you laugh at me?
Melissa
I don't know. That just sounds stupid.
Larry McFeely
Well, that's when you know people. That's the early warning sign.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, that's when you gotta watch it.
Larry McFeely
Oh, boy, here it comes.
Melissa
We're like that radio show on Saturday Night Live all of a sudden.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, I smell citrus in the air. That's good. But, yeah, it's. It's horrible. And top it all off, my feet are diseased. There's nothing I can do about this. So I'm gonna sue the city of Detroit.
Melissa
Why is it Detroit?
Brady Bogan
Well, because I.
Larry McFeely
It could have been Toledo.
Brady Bogan
It could have been Toledo. The mu developed on my feet. And it's not visible, but it's a scent. Cannot be scrubbed off, cannot be burned off. Can't be nothing. I've tried everything.
Larry McFeely
We might google it, but you might have the Mommy Mung.
Brady Bogan
I might have some Mommy Mung from the Ohio Mommy Valley.
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Melissa
Just embrace it, John.
Brady Bogan
Don't worry about it. No, I can't embrace it. I have to leave my house. I get Brennaman's feet. They caught. They caught it the first day. It's a fungus that I. I don't know what it is.
Larry McFeely
I think you've always had it. Just you came to life, wander around.
Brady Bogan
My bare feet all the time and then everything's fine. And in the golf course. In the golf course, you get on the sandals and you go. You're really sweating them. That's just sweat smell. But it doesn't stick around. You take a shower, it's gone. These. You take a shower, you get out and you're like, my feet still stink. You scrub. My feet still stink. My feet smell horrible. It's gross. You want. We want to wit.
Larry McFeely
Call Brennaman to find out. Medication. Maybe he's got a couple extra bottles.
Brady Bogan
Left because you said Brennaman's feet used to turn black. Yeah, the bottoms of them in college. Tom Brennaman was a diamondback. Used to have.
Larry McFeely
He's a true tar heel.
Brady Bogan
Blackfoot. It's gross and the smell is horrible. And it's not my shoes, it's my feet. And it's a scraper.
Larry McFeely
Scrape it.
Brady Bogan
Oh, it comes off. It just didn't. It wasn't discoloration. It was a thing.
Larry McFeely
It came off in like a ooze. No, I don't know.
Melissa
See if you could like grow like a potato with stuff. Come.
Larry McFeely
You might. Roots might be coming out of there.
Brady Bogan
What I want is sit in this filth and make it worse so I can grow vegetables. Great idea. No, it's disgusting.
Larry McFeely
I mean you seriously, if you stand for like a. In a spot for over five minutes of mushrooms start coming up in that spot.
Brady Bogan
Not on me. But it's so bad that it's just the area around. I have wood floors and mushrooms were popping up out of the wood. It is disgusting. And I've tried gold bond.
Larry McFeely
Well, don't. Like I said, keep it down to one pair of shoe. Because every pair of shoes that you're putting on ruined.
Brady Bogan
I'm ruining everything. It's gross. And now the allergies have got me. It's a tough week. What a tough week.
Larry McFeely
It's out of control.
Brady Bogan
I'm out of control over here. I can't talk. My throat still hurts from screaming at the Super Bowl. Which, by the way, I watched last night again, and I will watch every day.
Larry McFeely
And you watch the Grammys a little bit.
Brady Bogan
I watch the Grammys, but you can't. I don't think it's possible for any one human being to sit through the Grammys all the way anymore.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, it's tough.
Brady Bogan
But we'll get into the whole Sly in the family. So that's just proof. The Grammys are so completely out of touch and out of date with the general public.
Larry McFeely
U2 was a big winner.
Brady Bogan
U2 won big. But five, Sly and the Family Stones.
Melissa
Well, they were getting a lifetime award or whatever.
Brady Bogan
They haven't done anything.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, maybe, because I don't know who's behind the tribute disc. I know that's coming out, but Sly.
Brady Bogan
Disappeared from society for 17 years.
Melissa
I thought he was dead.
Brady Bogan
So did I. I thought he went crazy and there were rumors he was arrested. Then after last night.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, he disappeared for 19 years.
Brady Bogan
Just was it all. That was it. The whole time. I thought he was back, like two years ago and started to do something, but he wouldn't tour, wouldn't talk about the band.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, I don't know what the deal, but I know you two. I heard they're going to take their Grammys, melt them down, and pay for someone's hut in Johannesburg.
Brady Bogan
Oh, that's nice. That's what's for my father, as I love my father. How many have somebody else.
Larry McFeely
Did you hear Bono? He said being in a rock band's like being in the circus. And then they pan the camera over to Roy Horn and he's flipping off Bono. That was pretty cool. Yeah.
Brady Bogan
If you think that's just going to our heads, it's too late.
Larry McFeely
In the name of the Father.
Brady Bogan
In the name of the Father. The time, the spirit of the Holy Ghost.
Melissa
I don't remember that part.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, he. He's. He's a weird dude. I like how he stands. Like he's about to break into one. At any given time. His feet are always crooked.
Larry McFeely
And then when he brought up that cadaver and he's like, this is a kill. This is a kill.
Brady Bogan
He's not the same guy as the guy from gangs in New York. They just look alike.
Melissa
But, John, if you noticed last night, our band's one.
Brady Bogan
Brady, I know you. I owe you both lunch. They owe you both lunch. But, you know, that's no different.
Larry McFeely
At the Bottom of the screen.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, they don't. They don't. They don't show it.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, it's scroll. But the other thing I thought was cool was I never knew Angela Lansbury could rock out like. Oh, that was Paul McCartney.
Melissa
Oh, he's got a roll today.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, he's got. He's got a writer. And. And can Bruce Springsteen songs mean less? I know this is.
Larry McFeely
I Didn't Catch the Boss.
Brady Bogan
It's supposed to be a deep war song. But it could be about a peanut butter and jelly. And it would be that I had a piece of bread and a couple of knives. I had some jelly on the left and peanut butter on the right.
Melissa
What happened to him?
Brady Bogan
And I'm from New Jersey. I stuck my knife in the peanut butter and I ripped the bread. I'm just eating this peanut butter sandwich, getting it on my head.
Melissa
That crowd just eats it up.
Brady Bogan
They eat anything. And then he plays the harmonica and the guitar at the same time. I'm still.
Larry McFeely
I guess you want.
Brady Bogan
Still knocked out by that. I still think that's an achievement.
Larry McFeely
But every time you see him, he. He makes it a point that he's. He's serious.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, well, he is serious, but his songs mean nothing. My left shoes off and my right shoes on I can't find remote control. Just wrote a song.
Larry McFeely
I'm on fire.
Brady Bogan
Yeah. Everything is weird. And you look at him, it's like, man, that was deep. And that's just the face he makes. He sings about nothing.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, he does Larry. 57 channels, nothing.
Brady Bogan
Yeah. Oops, my shoes untied, folks. Hang on a second. I'm gonna bend down and tie him in front of everybody. Wanna play the harmonica? That doesn't even rhyme. Bruce, Steve, send them home.
Larry McFeely
Did you see Stevie Wonder with Alicia Keys?
Brady Bogan
Oh, yeah.
Larry McFeely
Probably the funniest thing was she actually blew a note in his harmonica. And.
Brady Bogan
Stevie, don't.
Larry McFeely
Did you hear what he said? Yeah, don't spin my mom. Monica, girl, he's gay.
Brady Bogan
I would let her spit on anything she wants. I would let her spit.
Larry McFeely
You don't know. He probably felt her wrist and it was really thick or something.
Brady Bogan
That thick wrist. He thinks she's fat.
Larry McFeely
Speaking of fat, I guess Aretha Franklin ate the Black Eyed Peas last night.
Melissa
Wow, that was a good one.
Brady Bogan
Nice work. Maybe the best joke you've ever told. She is a house that came out of nowhere. You gotta save that crap for when people are listening. That's funny. I'm gonna go wash my feet. I know it's 98 Kup. That's funny. Holmberg's morning sickness. My feet have become. It's. It's. The home remedies are starting to roll in now.
Larry McFeely
Chicken soup for John.
Brady Bogan
It's chicken soup for my feet. And there's plenty of suggestions. This guy's got the best voice for it, so I figured I'd talk to him. Hi, there. Who's this? There we go. Are you there?
Caller from Ohio
Yes.
Brady Bogan
Oh, I'm sorry. There you go. What's going on, man?
Caller from Ohio
Hey, I was just on my way in here shop this morning, and I heard you talking the past couple days about your. Your feet problem, man.
Brady Bogan
They smell horrible. Yeah.
Caller from Ohio
Hey, I got a fix for you, all right?
Larry McFeely
Is this the guy from the Geico commercial?
Brady Bogan
You're that. You're that tough biker from the Geico spot?
Caller from Ohio
No, no, no. I'm a redneck from Ohio.
Brady Bogan
Yeah. Oh, no. What part?
Caller from Ohio
Southeast.
Larry McFeely
Okay, you're out. Jackson. Jackson, Ohio.
Caller from Ohio
No, no, no, no. We're not goat reapers or nothing, all right?
Brady Bogan
You're from Almost.
Larry McFeely
Are you from Gala Police?
Caller from Ohio
No. No. Right. All right, Outside, Columbus.
Brady Bogan
Outside. Oh, okay.
Caller from Ohio
Southeast Where?
Larry McFeely
Pataska.
Brady Bogan
Go ahead. Brady, stop it. What's your foot remedy for me, hillbilly?
Caller from Ohio
Okay, you got. You got two things. One is it's based mainly on a lack of zinc in your body. Seriously, I kid you not. I had the same deal, man.
Larry McFeely
You know what? He's been releasing a lot of zinc lately, and that's true.
Brady Bogan
Zinc comes out of me like crazy. All right?
Caller from Ohio
Yeah. Either. Now that and then another deal is spray deodorant on your feet. Works like a charm.
Brady Bogan
Put deodorant on my feet?
Caller from Ohio
Yeah. I'm telling you, I'd do it.
Brady Bogan
Okay. All right, I'll try that. I've tried tied with bleach. I've tried it all, so. All right, those are good suggestions. Thanks, man.
Caller from Ohio
Hey, no problem.
Brady Bogan
All right, we'll talk to you later. Remedies from Grove City, who, by the way, may have the best voice I've ever heard on radio.
Caller from Ohio
Oh, hey, thanks.
Brady Bogan
No problem. We'll talk to you later. I love that. That's a great sound. John holmberg's morning sickness.

Brady Bogan
Hey, it's Larry McFeely here with Wayne from amco.
Larry McFeely
And Wayne, now that it's getting warmer, I turned on the AC in my.
Brady Bogan
Car and the air's blowing kind of cool, but it really smells like a basement. What can I. Larry, Your car's AC system should be checked and serviced every year. Plus, replacing the cabin air filter helps the air blow strong and takes away any nasty smell. Nice.
Larry McFeely
Is that a big deal to get done?
Brady Bogan
Not at all. It takes about an hour, and in most cases, we can do it while you wait.
Larry McFeely
That's awesome.
Brady Bogan
I'll say. We're amco.
Larry McFeely
Google amco for your nearest location.
Brady Bogan
That's amco double a mco transmissions and a whole lot more. Holmberg's morning sickness.
Larry McFeely
He's kind of like a mountain man. Wilford Brimley.
Brady Bogan
The other dude hung up and he said I should piss on my feet in the shower.
Melissa
Well, that's what you do for athletes foot. Is it?
Larry McFeely
Yeah, they don't like the natural disinfectant.
Brady Bogan
Do you pee in the shower?
Larry McFeely
Yeah.
Brady Bogan
Do you?
Melissa
Yeah, but I can't bring myself to ever peeing on my foot.
Brady Bogan
I don't think I pee in the shower too, but I don't think I can.
Larry McFeely
I want to design a full toilet in the shower. You just do everything and you just hose on.
Brady Bogan
Why would you want to sit and.
Larry McFeely
Get soaked at the same time under that hot water?
Brady Bogan
This is the most relaxing thing I have ever done. It is raining hot water.
Larry McFeely
I am pooping now.
Melissa
Wouldn't the the toilet would overflow, Brady, because you get water spraying in there.
Larry McFeely
No, that's the design of it. It's just constantly draining.
Melissa
Oh, really? That's a lot of money in water you're spending.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, you're. That's a waste.
Larry McFeely
And then I'll have waterproof magazines that you can leaf through when you're.
Brady Bogan
You have the worst idea ever in history.
Larry McFeely
I'm just kidding. It's not my.
Brady Bogan
Little waterproof everything in the corner. But why is there a toilet in your shower?
Larry McFeely
Oh, it's all I want. It's a space saver.
Brady Bogan
Lord almighty, get in it. I want to just pee at it. You got a shower at my house when you're going shut your mouth talking to me. It is just. I'm picturing it, which is Worse. I'm actually picturing Brady doing it.
Larry McFeely
If you could come up with maybe like a TV tray like thing, then.
Brady Bogan
You could shave full naked.
Larry McFeely
Brady. Shower poop and shave all at once.
Brady Bogan
I hate you. I'm going to kill you with a knife. I know, I know I'm supposed to say stuff like that, but I mean it. I think I mean it this time. I think.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, I think that you and what army?
Brady Bogan
Yeah. The knife is all I need really. While you're pooping and so I can't.
Larry McFeely
Walk on that floor.
Brady Bogan
I'll fly it all over. It's. Wow. Hinder here get stoned. And you have to be stoned to understand that, Brady. Probably. It probably would be pretty relaxed.
Larry McFeely
I gotta step out for a second. Will you hold this grenade for a second?
Brady Bogan
Hang on to this. We let it go, didn't I? It's hinder. Why can't that image leave my mind of you on the can in the shower? Burn it. Burn my brain. Holmberg's morning sickness. Boy, oh boy, oh boy. Everybody wants to fix my feet and I couldn't appreciate that. I feel like Jesus. Everybody's washing my feet. Everybody.
Larry McFeely
Everybody. Everybody.
Caller
Everybody's washing your feet.
Brady Bogan
Yeah.
Caller
Well, that's something, I guess.
Trish
Who are you?
Larry McFeely
Mary Magdalene.
Brady Bogan
Mary. How are you?
Caller
I'm Melissa.
Brady Bogan
Oh, Melissa. What's going on?
Caller
In Israel they have all one room bathrooms, toilet, shower, everything's tiled, all in one room.
Brady Bogan
Oh, we got that too. You mean all. It's just like you shower and you. And you go.
Caller
You can actually my cousin in Israel, she would go in the shower and then I'd have to use the bathroom and the toilet's all wet and there'd be like this little snail because he was hanging out when she was taking a shower.
Brady Bogan
The snail. Yeah.
Caller
I don't even want to know either one. It freaks you out when you sit down because the toilet's wet, right. Because she doesn't think to dry it off. She's just taking a shower.
Brady Bogan
Sure.
Caller
And then you look and there's a snail crawling up the wall.
Brady Bogan
Like a real one. Like a snail. Snail.
Caller
Like a snail. Big Israeli snail.
Larry McFeely
That's called a toilet snail.
Brady Bogan
Jewish snail.
Larry McFeely
It's a toilet snail.
Brady Bogan
It's a big Jewish snail.
Caller
What?
Brady Bogan
It's a Jewish snail.
Caller
Well, it would have to be.
Brady Bogan
It's a new.
Caller
I wonder if he was kosher.
Brady Bogan
He could have been code. You could have just reached in there and eaten them.
Caller
Sorry about your feet, man.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, I know. Thanks.
Caller
I've had the same problem. But Seriously, what Brady says.
Brady Bogan
Yeah.
Caller
Don't. Don't use other shoes.
Brady Bogan
Yeah. Really?
Caller
Because you'll keep giving it to yourself over and over.
Brady Bogan
What about the shoes I'm wearing?
Larry McFeely
Those are gone. Cooked.
Brady Bogan
They're brand new.
Larry McFeely
Well, they might. I take them off. Are they smelling?
Brady Bogan
No.
Larry McFeely
Then take. Then save them.
Caller
I think that would be an interesting point of conversation to take them off to actually see if it's really as bad as you say it is.
Brady Bogan
Well, it's not. Right now. I have to be in the shoes for a little while and create a mung.
Melissa
That's a bad suggestion, lady.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, it took me years to get.
Caller
Rid of it, but I had to. I had to trash all my shoes. I tried different stuff. Like, somebody said, put bleach in the. In the shower. Don't put lotion on your toes. Always dry them off.
Brady Bogan
Oh, I put lotion on last night just because it's scented.
Larry McFeely
Put the lotion in the basket.
Brady Bogan
Anything that smells like something other than my foot, it puts a lotion in the bathroom. Or else he gets.
Larry McFeely
Hey, you know, I. I know what that Jewish snail. Yeah, I know what they sound like.
Brady Bogan
All right, here's Brady's impression of a Jewish snail. Go ahead. Oh, Brandy Bogan is on fire.
Caller
As far as. As far as pissing on your feet. Yeah, I think that goes along with the same line as women tell men, it's not the size that matters because it's really not all true. We're just lying to the small guys.
Brady Bogan
Yeah. Yeah, that's true.
Caller
The peeing on your feet is just for a point of conversation to see if you actually did it.
Brady Bogan
See, you lie to a small guy because then when you break up with him, you tell him the truth, he's going to become a serial killer. Be careful. All right, good luck. And always check for snails. We'll talk to you later.
Caller
Bye.
Brady Bogan
Bye. Bye. Wow, that got weird.
Larry McFeely
You know, a lot of times I don't have that choice. Peeing in the shower, because right when that warm water hits you gotta go.
Brady Bogan
I'm the same way. I tried for a long time because I thought, okay, this is getting out of hand. I'm way too comfortable with this. But I think everyone does it. I don't think anyone can resist the evil of the thriller.
Melissa
It sucks when you're cleaning your shower.
Larry McFeely
Oh, Dudnick goes down the drain.
Brady Bogan
Well, you don't pee in it while you're cleaning it.
Larry McFeely
And I don't. You know, you don't sandblast the sidewalls with it.
Melissa
You Think about it. Every time you're down there by the.
Brady Bogan
Drain, you know what you need to think about? Here's something you need to think about, because it's probably what, 90% of Americans. I don't know about the other places in the world, they even got hot water. I don't care. Yeah. I took polls, so to speak. And hotel rooms. Think of that. They don't bleach, clean the shower every day in the hotel. So you're getting in there with the last guy.
Larry McFeely
Bring it on.
Brady Bogan
And most everybody's peed in the shower.
Larry McFeely
I don't know about. You sure about that? The bleach cleaning, I think they. Do they have.
Brady Bogan
Do they just.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, it's the sheets that they.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, they don't. They don't care.
Larry McFeely
Most of them do it three times a week, maybe.
Brady Bogan
It's spooky. It's weird to think about hotels, and I never want to stay in one again. When you think about everything you do at your house that you do at your shower, and everybody pees in the shower, I bet you it's 90%, which put that up on the website today. You pee in the shower, see what the percentage is. And be honest. Holmberg's morning sickness as we speak right now. My feet smell horrible. Everybody knows that. And everyone has gone through this but Brady. Something I want to avoid pretty badly is what this guy just mentioned to me. He said the word jungle rot. Yeah, jungle rot.
Trish
It causes pits to be eaten into your feet.
Brady Bogan
Oh. And it's just from wet feet.
Trish
Yeah, it's from my. From being in hot.
Brady Bogan
Humid.
Larry McFeely
Yeah, Hot and humid climate.
Brady Bogan
So you can't just get that in Detroit.
Larry McFeely
You can get the jungle rot in the crotch, too.
Trish
It's very, very, very, very painful.
Brady Bogan
That's real?
Trish
Yeah, that's real. It's real real. I had it.
Larry McFeely
Crew X.
Brady Bogan
Jungle rot. Okay. I want to avoid that. Like the play. How do you get rid of jungle rot?
Trish
I took my feet in Lysol for about three months.
Brady Bogan
How bad does jungle rot smell?
Trish
It doesn't really smell. It's just extremely painful.
Brady Bogan
Oh, my God. The other thing.
Trish
Lysol will take any smell off your feet as long as you do it long enough and you take care of your feet and, like, wash your socks and everything, you know?
Brady Bogan
Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's gross. And if I can avoid jungle rot.
Larry McFeely
The only other thing I know that gets rid of it, if you can go to the zoo and get a lowland gorilla to give you a cat.
Brady Bogan
That'Ll take it right off yeah. And jungle rock comes right off. And you told me that you got a scrub with a hard bristle brush and then soak your feet in Lysol.
Trish
Yeah, you don't have to soak your feet in Lysol, but if the hard bristle brush does not work in unscented Dove soap.
Brady Bogan
Okay.
Trish
If that doesn't work, then you would move to the Lysol in more extreme cases, maybe like soaking your feet and you take aloe vera like pieces and you boil them and you soak your feet in that also.
Brady Bogan
Wow. I've got a problem.
Larry McFeely
I think boiling his feet might work.
Brady Bogan
Yeah, just. Just cut them off. Evidently, they're done.
Larry McFeely
You give it a week, then you have to cut them off.
Brady Bogan
Yeah. I don't know. Nice job, man. Thank you. I'll take. I'll take your suggestions. I could deep fry them. Nice work. We'll talk to you later. That would work.
Larry McFeely
We'll put a little batter on them.
Brady Bogan
And deep fry my feet. I don't understand. It's just. You have it. Toledo. No. Oh, just in general.
Larry McFeely
He's had it before. You always have. Stink foot.
Brady Bogan
No, I've had it. Oh, it's horrible. It's horrible. It's ruining my whole house. I can't even take my shoes off. I'm one of those guys that's got to walk around, you know, and after the shower, I got to put shoes on right away. And is my shower now infected?
Larry McFeely
No, no.
Brady Bogan
This is gross.
Larry McFeely
You just take. Yeah, it could be, but all you do is bleach the tile in the shower.
Brady Bogan
Great. Arizona's most powerful rock radio station.
