Sunday Papers, Las Vegas, and wherever the fuck Mike is.
Whitefish, Montana.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Just, oops, there, my headphones, just pulled in.
Literally, family's still unloading the car.
Okay.
Well, we haven't looked at the script.
So we're going to be winging it this week a little bit
because I have to pick up my wife at the airport.
What have you ever been on time for that?
Well, you don't leave somebody stranded at a Vegas airport on a Friday at 6 p.m.
That's right, Vegas.
How's Vegas going, man?
It's, you know, it's Vegas.
Seven nights in a fucking tower.
The hotel room that I'm in is a tower of the MGM,
and the club is in the main part of the hotel.
and I clocked it.
It's exactly one half of one mile from the room to the club.
And I blew out my knee a week ago playing paddle tennis with you.
Yes, that was a good match.
And I have one of those little carts that you put your knee on and you push yourself.
No, you don't.
Yep.
And it's got a basket on the front.
And I wheel myself through the hallways.
Oh, my God.
And guess what people do?
I imagine my life.
very hard.
They laugh, but they smile at me.
Do you know how rare it is as a 59-year-old bald white guy
to elicit a smile from a stranger?
Now, everybody holds doors, they smile.
I'm gonna fucking, I'm sticking with it.
I'm keeping this little roller thing.
Oh, man, I thought today was depressing
being in the car for six hours,
but this now just took it to a whole new level.
Jesus.
Wow.
Yeah. So I zip around. I have a cane when I'm not using that. That's for just going up and down the elevator.
It's getting worse. Yeah. Yep. Oh, my God. Okay.
So picture seven days where you can't do anything. You're just sitting in a hotel room. Oh, my God.
All right. So. Well, I'm sorry you have that. I'm sorry our match has resulted in this.
which I also lost $18 on.
Yes.
When is the surgery?
Three weeks.
All right.
And then will you, oh, no, will you have one of these for a couple of days, one of these little rascals, manual rascals?
Just a cane.
The rehab from this surgery apparently is not bad.
I'm on the exercise bike the next day or two days later, and we build up from 10 minutes.
Wow, all right.
Torn meniscus.
Yes.
Yep.
I like it.
Have you performed yet?
Today's Friday.
Yeah, I started Monday night, so I've done four shows.
Is Brad there?
Brad was here the first night.
It was great to see him.
He was with his wife, his lovely wife.
And, you know, he's just, he's a barrel of laughs.
He's a fucking, he's a character.
He's up there on stage.
The shit he says to people is so racist.
and misogynistic
and yet he's totally grandfathered in
he gets away with all of it
right it's like a rickles thing
yeah
and he's a little bit
you know sometimes as I think about this
like very briefly
like Joel McHale
Joel McHale
we had to change the writing a little
he was in a sitcom I had
because his whole thing was
he was kind of an outsider
and awkward and he was thin
yes he played some unofficial
kind of like football or maybe a little bit official, uh, in college. So, you know, tall guy,
but he was thin and kind of awkward. And then all of a sudden the Joel that arrived, uh,
later is just stacked and really like, you know, sort of, uh, dominant looking. And he has to watch
the humor because he would love, you know, taking shots at guy, you know, but now it looks
almost a little like punching down, you know what I mean?
Well, Jesselnick gets away with it somehow because he's so over the top, good looking and
offensive.
Yeah, I guess so.
But, yeah, I mean, obviously you can pull things off.
But, but Brad, in a way, there's a little bit of a, which Raymond tapped into, a little bit
of like a, you're one of the freaks, like with a lot of us, you know what I mean?
Like, you're so big and they would talk about that and everything.
like in a way his physicality makes him an outsider right he also jews it up you know it
always helps you know they that's the thing about i mean they they always say why are why are so
many great comedians jewish and it's because they very much are outsiders you know they're a voice
of somebody who's looking at everybody else on the inside and uh you know um he plays
italian for me you know off the table you know and of course in the barone family which
which was a Ray Romano thing.
Right, right.
But, yeah, so we're going to have dinner in a couple weeks back in Malibu.
And he's trying to get me hired on this show to write, which should be nice.
I wish, you know, I ran into Ray at one of the Emmy after parties that I worked on.
And I mean, I think Brad must have come by there.
It was Bargettzi's party, but I would have loved to have seen him.
Yeah, he's the best.
And then I was supposed to play golf.
My nephew's father-in-law, long story,
but this guy runs like the course out here in Vegas.
And I was all set up with a tea time,
and then my knee just did not heal,
so I couldn't play.
The little knee scooter couldn't make it 18 holes.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Yeah.
I played a little in Jackson Hole.
I played not a little.
I played 18 with a jack.
So what's this trip?
Explain this to people.
so I mean
the whirlwind life that is
Mike Gibbons
this was pushed by my dad
and now I think he's regretting it
because he's like
oh man these are long days
but he it was good to get him
out of Florida
he has already
a fib issues and whatever
I'm just knock on wood
we have not been to like an emergency
care yet for him but
it's yet
so he wanted to do like
Yellowstone and Galatian
National Park. They seem close together on a map. They do. I'm going to give you that.
Yeah. They are not. And so we also put Jackson Hole in it because we had a place to stay there. Jack was amazing and says hello and all of that stuff.
How nice. So anyway, drive up from all the way through Yellowstone and then stay in this amazing place in the Paradise Valley south of Bozeman.
So this morning that we wake up
And then we drive an hour
Or 45 minutes or so to Bozeman
Have breakfast there and then do the rest of the trip up here
And now we're in Whitefish
And go into Glacier National Park tomorrow
And this is you, your dad and your sister?
And niece Caroline
Who somehow is enjoying this
And having a great attitude about everything
But she's in the car with the three of us
Oh my God
Crazy
Is this like being
Is this like when your parents were divorced all over again?
in what way
just you and your sister
and your dad on a road trip
oh oh oh oh like when he would take us stuff
yes except he's now like an infant
like what where are we watch the trap
like you know I just have that guy
he also
maybe it happens at a certain age
where he will just tell you things
that the sign he read
just said and maybe he doesn't think
we can read it or something's like
you know you know Bozeman
is up here to the right.
I'm like, yeah, yes.
Also, you see the ways.
Do you see the big thing that occurs right?
And then, but then the other thing that's great is I found this app.
And the app, you use it, it's called Park Wolf or something, and we're not sponsored by them.
But you put that on, and the GPS triggers info that it says.
So it's like you're on a guided tour, but you're in your car.
No shit.
Oh, no, it's great.
So he's like, now you're coming up like to the, like, you know, Black Rock lookout.
And this lookout was formed by Teddy Roosevelt, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So he now repeats what was just said in the car out loud.
He's like, you know, Teddy Roosevelt looked in this area.
I'm like, wow.
Yeah.
It was just said 20 seconds ago.
It's like an app called Echo.
He's an app.
Exactly. Second listen. Second listen. F. No, you know what he's doing? He's translating English to English. That's what's going on.
Right, right. English to Bronx. Well, that's great. I mean, I think it's so great that your dad is doing this stuff with you guys. You guys have been on a lot of cool trips. And it's really nice to have a father who's alive. Good for you.
I thought I was joining you a few times today.
Jesus.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
Oh, wait.
There's another thing, too.
A little bit of a dark sense of humor.
He's too tired to get out to look at, like, so Yellowstone, not many people know this,
but has a Grand Canyon, believe it or not in it.
And so we go in the Grand Canyon.
and then we come back to the car and there is a raven always a good sign a raven on his window on his side view mirror just looking in and I'm like dad I'm like Lord dad's gone
I'm like there's that only means one thing by way look how big this thing is did it say never more it I know wow that thing is on the it is on the
side view mirror for those of you listening and your dad's in the passenger seat and he's
right oh no yeah yeah look at him looking up at it oh my god and i'm like that is he's
i mean i wouldn't be surprised if it's flying away with one of his eyeballs right now oh my god
yeah that's crazy um and then uh and then so what happens from here so now you're in this is it
thankfully we just pulled i like literally ran into a room that i saw was in because i didn't
I didn't even know about the Wi-Fi that I saw was next to the Wi-Fi boxes or whatever.
And they're, like, looking around the house.
And I'm sorry I was, I mean, I was trying to give you updates as we went along,
but it just took so goddamn long to get here.
So now we're in this house.
We're here tonight and tomorrow night, which is Friday and Saturday night.
And then we fly out of whitefish, which is Calispell, I think, or whatever, Sunday.
And go through Seattle.
That's fun on the way home.
little airport here yeah unbelievable sure you will die on a plane at some point one of us will die on a plane
whoa oh yeah wait i want to get to hopefully you had your little your little knee contraption thing
for their airplane but um but calatia national park is on the to do list that's what we do tomorrow
all right special treatment on the plane for you or what no i drove i drove i rented i rented the little push cart
in L.A.
I borrowed my wife's Subaru Outback, and I drove out here, parked it in the lot,
thinking I would just, instead of getting stir crazy this week,
I'd go out to Lake Mead and, you know, Hoover Dam, and I'd go down to go to downtown
and go to the Golden Nugget.
I have not gotten into the car once the entire week.
I've been sitting in the room, looking at TikTok, reading a book, which I don't even
like watching sports
watching fucking Aaron Rogers win a game
which kills me
I hate watching him
no he won
oh well they're what
it got close they came back or so anyway
it was a point by a point
oh wow yeah
but still alive in the football pool
I got two of my boxes still alive out of four
all right I got the Patriots this week
and the chiefs
so I'm in good shape.
Yeah, you're out.
Gubbin still has two alive.
Buffalo put me out.
And then...
A lot of people out.
Oh, so Owen is in New York, and I get this picture from him.
I posted it.
If anybody wants to see it, go to my Instagram account.
Now I know he has fit into New York.
He sends me a picture of him yesterday.
He moved from Harlem to Brooklyn to Crown Heights.
Okay.
And both neighborhoods we would not have lived in
when we were living there.
No.
And him and his roommate got on the subway with a couch and took it out to Brooklyn.
And there's a photo of there.
It's like a, you know, it's like a small couch.
But it's the two of them on the fucking L train sitting on the couch.
No, if you think about it, I mean, I just had Sophie move in.
If you think about it, it's like, I don't know, like, you know, let's say you do Facebook marketplace.
And it's like, oh, yeah, we got a big table.
I'm like, okay, how's that?
I mean, unless you're renting a really.
really expensive moving rental.
Right. Right.
So they got it from one of his friend's sisters had the couch.
They got this new place out in Crown Heights, him and two other guys.
They already found their local bar across the street.
It's got a $7 shot and a beer special with a pool table.
And they ran into a bunch of girls from California.
And they're already like have plans with them and they love the neighborhood.
so he's psyched.
Couch is getting a workout already.
Oh, yeah.
Get the black light going on that thing.
All right, let's move this thing along.
Let's get to our logo this week comes from Bob, the very prolific Bob.
Look at Dennis Gubbins.
Dennis Gubbins, rolling some dice in Vegas at a craps table.
It looks like you're on the five cube.
I don't know what number came up.
The song is from Fletcher-Alekson.
and it's really fucking good
and just so you know
there has been some
consternation about
whether or not songs are AI these days
so Fletcher said and
FYI this was not AI
I'm a musician based in New York
which I have to
also bring up we had it we got an email
from Blake Levan who I don't know
if you remember was our he was our
composer last week
and musician and singer
he wrote this to me
You used my song on the podcast last week, which I was thrilled about, but then you said it must be AI, which I was considerably less thrilled about.
To clarify, I have never and will never use AI in any song I send you.
Everything you hear is written, played, and produced entirely by me.
It takes me time to put these together, so hearing it dismissed as AI is a little frustrating.
This might be overkill, but I made a video to show you the process of re-recording, re-recording the last.
song I send you in real time.
It's a little rough since I only do one take of each track and don't mix any.
It goes on and on.
But he made this video, which I watch.
It was like 12 minutes long.
And it literally showed him laying down on his keyboard, each track of this song, which
we should play it at the end again, so people can hear how complex and insanely good
it is.
It sounds like it's AI video.
Exactly.
Sorry, Blake.
But I see right through your ploy.
I mean, he's talking about time quantizing and reverb compression.
And this guy is a real pro.
So anyway, Blake, our apologies.
Thank you so much for your good work.
And keep the songs coming.
Another correction came up.
This one's a week old.
The payment to Alaska citizens.
I talked about they get some kind of an oil payment every year.
All right.
Isn't socialism or welfare?
It is a return on investment.
funded by the revenue from oil and mining.
The state has no personal income tax,
so the fund is in a way and in part a distribution of excess state revenue.
Another purpose of the fund is to save and invest money
to have when there is no more oil revenue.
Well, we live in California.
We fucking refine it all.
Where's my check?
Right.
Anyway.
I love it because it's an all-red state that's on welfare.
Ron says, I'm a new listener, and so far I'm loving it.
I mean to write a few weeks ago when Mike mentioned going to Trader Joe's and not remembering to bring his normal bags, and instead using paper bags, I'm a T.J's crew member and can tell you we're happy when you bring any bag in no matter what store it's from.
So I guess that's his correction.
Okay.
And then tour dates coming up.
Listen, next week, October, it's now October 26th.
We're doing a Best Buddies benefit.
I've done it every year for about 15 years.
We raise money for Best Buddies, which is an amazing charity,
helps people with intellectual disabilities.
We got Andrew Santino.
We got Craig Robinson.
We got Ron Funches, Annie Letterman, and the great Mike Gibbons will all be on the show.
It's at the Comedy Store.
Tickets available on my...
site. Also, Chicago, the Den Theater, November 8th, Appleton, Wisconsin, November 9th, Lafayette, Louisiana, November 12th. Then I'll be in Phoenix, San Francisco, Hasbrook Heights, Cleveland. Go to Fitzdog.com, get some tickets and come out.
Mike, this is going to feel weird. This is going to feel unusual. Okay. We have an ad to read.
What? Yep. We're selling out? We have decided to stop our embargo.
on advertising and to get in light of all the comedians going to Saudi Arabia we decided to become commercial and I can't think of a better way to do it this is a product that look Christmas is coming up you want to buy something for somebody that feels handmade that feels unique oh I like this product this is a great company I'm literally reading this for the first time well this I know these guys you know on
Goods, uncommon goods.
It is, first of all, stress-free because this website is so easy.
I bought two things on it already.
I got my daughter these, they're warming booties.
They're like a better version of Uggs.
They're kind of like, they look warmer, they look fluffier.
She loves this kind of stuff.
She doesn't even know how much I know about her.
And this is the kind of thing.
You buy gifts off of this site, and people get that you.
you understand them because everything is super customized.
They got this pickleball shaped crudite plate.
Now, that's perfect for you, Mike.
A crudite plate.
Yes, shaped like a pickleball racket.
Oh, because I beat you in paddle tennis?
That's right.
No, they're so good.
It's like it's an organic thing.
It's individually, it feels like individual.
You're not going to a mall or anything.
This is me off the top of my head.
I haven't read any of this copy.
I let's love these guys.
Independent artists, small businesses,
they're made in small batches.
You got to hurry up and get this stuff.
Everybody loves it.
History buffs.
Diehard football fans, foodies, mixologists.

Look at that.
You get some accessories for your little one-legged scooter.
Now, I don't know if you have anything to crinkle.
I do.
I have a run-down of the Emmys.
Oh, okay.
It's no longer needed.
We ran it down.
Here we go, front page.
Knowing your dad, I'm surprised it's not a rundown of the trip.
Yeah, no, I know that's true.
All right, this was your story.
All right, the Walt Disney World Hotel.
to which an Illinois woman traveled before she took her own life is notorious for suicides.
And we are off the algorithm.
The body of Disney superfan summer equites, equates, 31, was found at the contemporary resort hotel at the Florida Park Tuesday night.
In the, she's from, whatever, she got, she just got married last year, honeymooned at Disney World in October.
and announced she was pregnant two months later.
It's unclear if she delivered the baby.
Who knows?
Anyway, this iconic hotel has been the site of several similar tragic incidents in recent years.
In 2016, a guest jumped to their death from the Central Tower.
In March 2020, in the afternoon, a woman jumped from the contemporary resort in front of horrified guests.
Oh, my goodness.
You know, it's hard when you look at this.
It must be impossible to tease out.
any correlations or causal relationships because if you're an adult and a Disney super fan
you have mental illness and not much to live for so you are you are in a so you're in a
really high risk group already are you kid maybe their brains get shaken up in the in the teacups
too much but uh I don't know it sounds like a tall world after all you read this story
Initially, they sent Doc over to check on her, but then Grumpy had to do the clean-up.
Imagine that's the last thing you see is Doc running up to you like this is perfect, like as you're taking your last breaths?
Oh, no.
You don't even have to look up.
He's right there.
I level.
Yeah.
All right.
RFK Jr.
uses a platform during a Trump event to go on a rant about teenagers' sperm during an Ovaloff.
gathering RFK Jr. said, when my uncle was president, the fertility rate in this country was
3.5%. Today it's 1.6%. The replacement rate, in other words, the amount of fertility that you need
in order to keep your population even is 2.1%. We are below replacement right now. And then he
continued, today, the average teenager has 50% of the sperm count as a 65-year-old man. Our girls are
hitting puberty six years earlier and that's bad and this is what he ended on also our parents
aren't having children so apparently if you're unvaccinated you don't know what the word
parent means yeah right it it uh i think the sperm count in the kennedy clan is about a hundred
percent, but luckily the abortion rate's about 97%.
Yeah, and there's still tons of them.
By the way, girls are hitting puberty six years earlier, so...
Well, what are we going to believe him?
But go ahead.
So what are they like seven?
I know.
I mean, is this something that he also noticed while walking through airports?
You remember that story?
No, what was that one?
He based all this, like, childhood nutrition problems on the fact that he's noticing how fat
kids are in airports.
Oh, he was in O'Hare, yeah.
Yeah, right.
That was definitely a Midwestern airport.
Totally.
That was not LAX.
Prince Andrew gives up royal titles, including Duke of York, after a discussion with the king.
He said, we have concluded the continued accusations about me, distract from the work
of his majesty and the royal family.
So he's going to remain a prince, but will cease to be the Duke of York, a title he received
from his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth.
He's still, though, he's going to get a new title,
which is Sir Rapes a Lot.
That's perfect.
Yeah.
And we are double off the algorithm.
I was going to say grapes a lot and just trust that people knew what I was saying,
but you already told me we're off it.
Wait, does this mean he will stop fondling girls dressed up as princesses?
I don't think it means that at all.
You're reading into your own stuff.
the Duke of Pork
that's it
yeah
is this me here
I think it's you
all right
a Wikipedia conference in Manhattan
descended into chaos Friday
when an unhinged Ohio man
jumped on stage and pointed a gun
at his own head
Connor Weston who had a sign around his neck
with the words
oh okay
anti anti-contact
non-offending pedophobic pedophers
file and we are off the algorithm a third time in 11 minutes he was tackled this and disarmed
by staff uh in a post on x in june he explained that he is quote fundamentally against adult
minor relations because i know that they are harmful i don't have any urges that i have to control
just like how most straight men don't have the urge to rape again off every woman they meet
pedophilia is not a choice i can choose to not harm minors but i cannot choose to stop being attracted
to them all right i get it i well i don't get it i kind of sort of mildly get it but i also don't see
myself wearing a sign that says non-offending guy who watches check hidden camera massage porn you know
keep some thanks to yourself yeah it's a little out there but i don't understand is a pedophile who says
he cannot control his attraction to kids,
aims a gun at his head,
and people risk their lives to disarm him.
Right, right.
Yeah.
What is happening there?
Yeah, yeah.
I hope they'd also risk their lives
to jump in front of him in a six-year-olds.
I don't know.
Is he pointing a gun at his head?
His own head, not the kid's head.
All right, let's get to it.
Ethical question.
Ethical question, here we go.
All right, it's my turn, and I got one.
and where is it?
Here we go.
Should I keep donating?
I love it.
Should I keep donating to an animal shelter that treats employees badly?
Interesting.
Right?
Well, as former writers on the Ellen DeGeneres show, I think I can relate to this.
Okay.
I mean, in other words, should you still love Ellen, who's raised millions of dollars for charities,
and indeed told people to be kind.
Oh, yeah.
Now, can you still support her knowing
that she is unkind to the people that work for her?
And I would say, now that I'm a little distanced from it,
yes, yes, the overall goodness outweighs the smaller amounts
of psychic damage being played out.
All right, I like it.
That's a good one.
I mean, I'm tired of bitching about Ellen.
I'm a 59-year-old grown man with kids.
What am I going to sit around acting like I got, you know, bitch slapped by, I've worked for worse.
I really have.
No, no, it's not true.
But close, I've worked for bad people before, as you have.
It's just, it's part of the job.
It's not that big a deal.
Right.
Look at you letting it go.
Letting it go.
Can you hear the lack of rage in my voice?
Maybe it's because you've been walking around in a circle.
with that scooter with one knee up on top of it.
It's not exactly a parallel, but I do remember.
So Santa Monica has a farmer's market, a big one on Sundays down on Main Street.
Oh, I know what you're going to talk about.
So they used to have the little ponies and pony rides.
And everyone will put their kids on.
Well, boy, the protesters came out.
Oh, wait, no, but you're not, explain how the pony ride actually worked.
So let's say it's a crossbar, right, like a big plus sign.
long metal poles and at the end of the pole a pony is tied like his his whatever his headdress
thing i don't know what it's called the bit in his mouth is tied to this pole and they walk
around in a circle and a tight circle pretty yeah pretty tight circle and then there's you know you put
kids on and there's a giant line that everyone put their kids on and then of course with each
they have a hand a ranch hand or whatever who is walking with besides
each kid as they go so they don't fall off but they're strapped in anyway protesters of course
come out and they are just screaming and i remember one time i'm standing there nearby watching this
because the protesters i just loved how like i thought they were going to start throwing blood
and i just love to kind of laugh at them a little but this one person like gets in my face
because i think they think i'm a parent online for this thing and they're like look at them
look at the deadness in their eyes just look how drug
they are and just and look how miserable and unhappy they are.
I'm like, are you talking about the ranch hands?
Because that's exactly what you're describing.
Or the mothers of the children.
Are far more miserable right now and baked than those animals.
Oh my God, they were real carnies.
They were true carnies.
And I mean, and you think, all right, you think these animals are being, hey, go down to Mexico.
See what's going on with those ponies.
Well, they like some of it, I think.
Yeah, well.
All right, we get in entertainment?
Here we go.
You put this story in.
I didn't know about this one.
There's no interest in the effects of cocaine on babies following accusations that Kevin Federline, whatever happened to him.
47 lodged against ex-Britney Spears, 43.
In his book, Fetterline claims that he watched Spears do cocaine with an actress at an album party in 2000.
shortly after the birth of their younger son, Jaden James.
Their older son was one at the time.
Federline said that he confronted the singer,
pleading with her not to go home and breastfeed the kids like this.
Call your mom or someone.
We need to get formula.
You can't do this.
Spears has dismissed the memoir as allegations as white lies.
She dismissed these allegations as white lines.
Right.
and then the baby apparently started talking early
and then wouldn't shut the fuck up more yeah
and then was not interested in eating for two days
it's cute he's calling uh he's calling her a singer
that's cute that he's added that in there that's how he identifies her
but listen let's be real cocaine's going to be the least
of these kids problems the kid's biggest problem is detailed
right there on the birth certificate mother brittany spears father
Kevin Federer.
Yeah.
That's the damage.
Yeah, it doesn't take a palm reader to say where this life is headed.
And by the way, this wouldn't be the first guy jacked up on Coke to be sucking on those titties.
Back on the algorithm.
I think that one gets us back on.
Let's make America, Florida.
Here it goes.
Parents accused, you sent this one to me, parents accused of leaving a teen on the side of the interstate with a bag of handguns and told them to fend firm.
himself. The teen said that when he got home from school, the couple informed him they were taking
a trip. When he returned from walking the family dog, he saw they were frantically throwing clothes
in the duffel bags and loading them into their car. When the vehicle got on the interstate,
the teen told the couple he did not want to go on the trip, which he was told was either to Guam
or Idaho. First of all, what a dumb kid. Both are way better options than Florida. But
And by the way, do you ever leave a house in Florida where you're not frantically throwing clothes into a duffel bag?
That's true.
Listen, we've narrowed it down to Guam or Idaho.
At that point, the teen told police the couple pulled over to the side of the road, gave him two bags containing a 40-caliber handgun, a 9-millimeter handgun, and some cash.
And they, first of all, this is a dream for a teen in Florida.
Yeah, right.
I know my mom used to send me off with a bag lunch and 75 cents for $0.
cart and a milk.
And they told them to get out of the car and take care of the house as they drove away.
This is the new home alone.
When police took the teen home, they found the garage door and the front door of the home
wide open.
The police entered the home to investigate.
They found the home to be cluttered in disarray with firearms lying out in the open.
Police were able to track the couple's phones to an address where local police found and
detained them.
Santos and Borja have been charged.
it sounds like they're going to Guam, have been charged with neglect of a child without great bodily harm.
Santos has also been charged with allowing a juvenile to have a possession of a firearm.
He should have gotten the gun from his folks, carjacked the family car, and gotten himself home.
Yeah.
So they took the guns away from the kid, and now all the kids in school are teasing him to be the only kid and only teen without guns.
y'all don't have a gun
y'all don't have a gun
we are making America
Vermont again
we are smoking through this episode
sounds like someone's wife is going to be
at the airport in about 15 minutes
this was sent into us
from Dan
teacher was so high on cocaine
she thought one of her students was her dog
that's the headline
Melissa Martin 47
a substitute teacher at barre
it's Barry Barry Barry Barry
Barry Town Middle and elementary.
We're going to get a correction on that.
Elementary school pleaded not guilty on Thursday
to charges of cocaine possession
and reckless endangerment after she was caught
with cocaine on the job.
The town police were called to the primary school
during the late morning hours
after reports of an adult under the influence of drugs.
One mother identified only as Brittany
said her eighth grade son was in Martin's class,
that's the teacher, that day,
and immediately noticed something was wrong.
According to Brittany's son,
Martin had been nodding on Miss Martin had been nodding off during class before suddenly running out of the room.
So he followed her and I guess found her and Miss Martin said to him,
Hey, Teddy, why are you off your leash?
And my son was like, what?
And Brittany said that she later learned that Teddy is Miss Martin's dog.
The worst part is Miss Martin was having all the students lick peanut butter off of her.
Yeah.
Well, look, you know, some of these kids have peanut allergies,
so that's not okay.
No.
I just don't know.
I'm shocked that on a teacher's salary,
she can afford to do cocaine.
We are overpaying these bitches.
Apparently she had an honor,
and there was more details in the article,
and then she also had more in her backpack.
Damn.
Yeah.
Tell her to get on Oxy,
like the rest of the staff.
No doubt.
All right, do we want to do...
Yeah, let's do the sports story real quick.
Oh, let's get darker.
Here we go.
Sports.
A former NFL player who is now a Tennessee high school football coach
was arrested in a prostitution sting
after he allegedly paid to have sex
with what he thought was a 16-year-old girl.
Jay Graham allegedly responded to a fake adult escort website
and agreed to pay $120 for sex.
120, that's a steal.
Even after the person he thought he was talking to said she was underage,
Graham 50 was taken into custody on Wednesday when he arrived at a Nashville hotel
and handed the cash to someone who was actually an undercover cop.
He was charged with patronizing prostitution with a minor, blah, blah, blah.
He spent five years in the NFL.
He played for the Ravens, the Seahawks, and the Packers.
and he finished his career with 454 yards and two touchdowns.
I mean, look, Sacks with a 16-year-old from Tennessee.
Talk about fantasy football.
I mean, how old was Elvis's bride?
I think younger than that.
Yeah.
And by the way, an escort service, most high school coaches down south,
don't they just bang the cheerleaders?
They're right there.
It's a home game.
I'm going to say he works in a high school.
I can't believe the story isn't set there.
Yeah, I mean, you know, it's like shop local, support local.
As if Tennessee football in general didn't have enough problems.
Yeah.
This guy.
All right, are we going to this day in history?
Let's go to this day in history.
Here we go.
All right, we got, I looked all this up in a car, and here we go.

Well, I remember when I was 10 was 1976. Good story. You got it. Let's move on. We are going to.
And I figured he was about 30 years old then.
Letters to the.
editor here it is oh it's me it's my turn uh this is from toby i miss the good news with
gubbins section you should sprinkle that in once a month or so for us long time listeners
uh all right let's talk about gubbins for a minute what's going on with him he um he's getting
knee surgery he's getting knee surgery when when he got his last knee surgery surgery
I swear to God, it was like he went into hospice.
He demanded that everybody visit him three times a week
with casseroles and weed gummies and hold his hands.
I was expecting a little baby gubbins over there.
Like, did he give birth naturally at home without a doula?
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
He is, yeah, he's like, it's so funny because he's tough in some ways.
and he's such a little baby in others.
I'm just picturing his face as Evens listens to this.
It's not good.
Hopefully what I just said made him laugh,
but now he's back to rage.
Yep.
Watch his golf game's going to get down the toilet again.
He was just getting good again.
Related, he has a one of those electric bikes or electric assist bicycles
that everyone seems to have on the west side of Los Angeles.
And three times.
And let's say there's only been.
six times i'm not even kidding you half the time he'll he'll like hey man i'm going over like
whatever to sunset or you want to meet so i'll be like yeah i'm here so i go down and meet him he has
his bike and uh he's now walking it because i'm walking and he's why and all of a sudden i'd be like
oh my god i did it again i left the thing on this battery drained so fast and he is
furious that he has to ride a bicycle home without the electric assist it's as if
It's as if the wheels lock and he has to pick up the heavy bike and carry it home.
I know.
It's like when I'm having sex with my wife and her vibrator dies.
I'm like, Jesus Christ, I got to do all the heavy lifting now.
That is a lot of heavy lifting, yeah.
And now she has probably has to think about you.
That's right.
Because the music stops.
Obituary.
Here we go.
This happened, I think yesterday.
Paul Daniel Ace freely, co-founder and lead guitarist of the legendary rock band Kiss and a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
How the fuck did they get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame when bad company is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
Is this a joke?
Swing, anyone with that bad company reference, but he was 74.
He was the co-founders, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, and Peter Chris.
They formed it in 72.
He remained with the band for their most significant eras.
And then he left in...
More like errors.
Right.
But yeah, you know, my buddy Weinstein,
who knows more about music than anyone I know.
He is bummed about it.
But I think there's like a way to look at them
that I've never kind of considered before.
To answer your question,
why they're in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
But I was never really a big fan.
But boy, I mean, I was in grammar school when they hit.
And it was gigantic.
Oh, I loved all their song.
Oh.
Okay.
They had one song.
Oh, I literally thought you said songs.
No.
No, no, no.
Come on.
They had a handful.
I want to rock in from all night.
Oh, yeah.
You're kidding.
And then what was the other one?
Rock City, Beth.
They were big, man.
Oh, God.
I just, I just funny, like, I was
talking to dicky about this and he's like he's like i just think it's so funny that you got all
these guys today that are so anti-trans and they're like i wish things to go back to the way they
used to be when things were normal you know when there was bands like you know Iggy pop and
david bowie and kiss oh not only that but it's like my kids of course became obsessed with
harry styles and i like them too but it was after a while and i wasn't like i'm going to rain on
their parade. I'm like, you know, the guy I really like, you know, I'll play and I tell them,
you know, that guy, Mc Jagger, I go, let me show you some pictures of Mc Jagger. It's, I am not even
kidding you. It's like you told AI put styles in the 1960s. And it's Jagger. I mean,
with lipstick, with the, with the blouses with, I mean, not. And then, of course, women's clothing,
they're even more extreme than that. But I mean, completely playing with that line and looks like
them yeah by the way this is my favorite part of the obit it said that um when all four members of
kiss released solo album simultaneously many fans felt that free lees which featured his hit cover
of the song new york roof was the best yeah yeah it was and i felt that when saved by the bell
went off the air screech really had the most interesting solo career you weren't impressed i take it
You were not impressed.
Oh, God.
All right.
We're going to go to the funnies.
Let's cheer up after Ace freely died.
I went to, we're going to start it off with the onion.
And the onion's headline was Mom Donnie, the guy running for the socialist, as they say, running for mayor, refuses to share plan for making rich richer.
Wait, I thought he's the guy that's going to take money from the rich.
That's exactly what the onion's getting at, see?
Oh, see, in other words, you have to have a plan to make the rich richer to get elected.
Exactly.
Yeah, I saw Bernie go off on.
Like, he's just not, he's denying that he has it, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it is crazy in this country.
The billionaires are making more and more and more, and the working class is voting
to give them tax breaks
while they cut their fucking health insurance.
What's going on in this country?
Crazy.
The funnies as we do,
the comedy caption contest every week.
You guys write in your punchlines
to one frame of a comic that we provide to you.
We put in the finalists,
select a winner,
and that person receives free of charge
a coozy sent hot off the desk.
I'll admit, I'm a little behind.
I got to get them out.
Send them in to Fitzdog Radio at gmail.com and just please put your name directly underneath your punchline and that will make it so much easier for me and my time saving efforts here with Sunday papers.
Last week's comedy caption was it looks like, you know, the safari in Africa and you see mountains in the background and just.
giraffs in the background, and in the foreground, we have three zebras that are striped, and one of them has polka dots.
It's that simple.
Yeah.
Zach from Yuma said, oh, great, another DEI hire.
All right.
That's not bad.
Yeah, I guess that's their job, I guess.
Harold said, there goes the Savannah.
Okay, yeah, it's a different looking type.
Yep.
Rich Boucho said, I guess they skipped the measles vaccine.
Rich on the vaccine issue.
Kelly Hatfield said, for God's sake, Frank,
I warned you about the giraffe bachelor parties.
Okay, okay.
Tim Began said Bobby didn't believe in the measles vaccine
and the lions were able to pick him off the next day.
Nice used to the little word Bobby there.
So I only picked five this week.
I didn't pick a lot.
Oh.
Some were a little off the mark this week.
But I feel like there's some good ones in here.
You pick the winner then.
I like the first one.
Oh, great, another DEI hire.
I just like the wording.
It's a good, well-worded joke.
Yeah, it's a MAGA joke.
We like it.
Okay.
So, Zach, from you, where the fuck's Yuma, first of all?
Is that California?
I don't know, but I'm going to have to write that address on an envelope about a year or two from now.
All right, next week, you guys, this one's interesting.
It's a doctor.
He's an old doctor.
He's bald.
His glasses are on the tip of his nose like bifocals.
He's got a stethoscope.
And he's got a rubber glove on his hand.
And he is standing behind what looks like the buttocks of an animal.
What animal does that look like to you?
I don't know what this is, man.
Let's just say for the sake of this, that it's a...
cow okay let's say it's a cow for the sake of the contest uh the cow has is presenting the
ass to the doctor who has a glove on his hand and he's looking at the camera it looks like
he's cross-eyed this is going to be a tough one to write a funny line for well proctology jokes
usually spill right out of the pen all right all right uh let's go to the pros
hagger is standing uh he's walking out of a castle with his goons
They're carrying treasure chests, and one guy's got a bag full of gold coins.
And the king is standing there, and he goes, are you going to set my castle on fire when you leave?
And a hacker goes, of course not.
We can't carry away all your treasures in one day.
By the way, have your wife slip into something sexy on Thursday, will you?
Yeah.
Because she's about to get raped.
Grape, Scott.
Now we go down to the lockhorns where they are sitting around a card table and they are playing the game Clue.
And Loretta says to Leroy, must you always guess in the kitchen for the murder?
She's good.
Now we are in a men's clothing store.
Leroy has on a horrible-looking, zigzag-colored jacket.
and Loretta's got her back to him and he goes,
I can hear your eyes rolling.
Yes, good.
She's totally looking the other way.
I think he's right.
And finally, the two of them are looking at the laptop.
And Loretta says to Leroy,
there's suspicious activity on our checking account.
Someone made a deposit.
The old couples with the financial issues.
I like it.
Yeah, they seem to.
really spend their money
and not earn enough of it.
Right.
Finally, Dagwood
sits. His little
bony ass is in that overstuffed
white chair. I don't know why
they get a white chair for this guy who's
constantly dribbling meatball
sauce and God knows what else.
He's watching the TV. He's
got the remote in his hand.
And from the TV it says
new from the people who brought you
the price is right. It's
The wife is right.
Blondie's off camera, says what?
And he goes, huh?
Now she walks in.
She's got on a white skirt, kind of like a sandal.
She's got a sandal that really shows off the contour.
She's got a good ankle.
And it just blends right into that bowling pin of a calf.
She has on, what color would you call that top?
Sort of a chartreuse?
I mean, it's light pink.
I don't know.
I don't know fancy colors.
It's a light pink and we've got...
It looks peach almost.
It's like a light peach and it's a profile shot so you can see the 34D bosom is pronounced.
It's out there.
And so now the TV says one lucky husband will guess why his wife is right and maybe win a brand new car.
And then she goes, wait, honey, I want to record season one.
And he goes, this is going to be a long season.
What do you think he means by that?
it seems to me that whatever she says should be right
she shouldn't be needing to record a show about the wife being right
assume you're wrong all the time
I think it's going to be a long seat go ahead sorry
just take the beta position on this Dagwood
and count your fucking blessings just just be glad this woman
is tolerating you I think it's going to be a long season
because Dagwood is taking it very literally
and he's like, I don't think
any husband can guess what his
wife is thinking. Yes.
It's going to be just missed guesses
all season long. Yeah.
Yeah. I think that's what's going on there.
It's a great premise. Great premise on Blondy
this week. Don't forget, folks.
We got a big benefit this week.
All the comics are coming out
with love in their hearts. Andrew Santino
and Craig Robinson and Ron Funches
come out to the best buddies benefit

Nope.
The Grand Canyon?
Your national parks.
There you go.
Oh, by the way, they're all free because of the shutdown.
No way.
And most of them are like a depressing sign in the window that just says closed, enter the park,
go ahead, like the office, the gates closed.
and then when we went into one of the Yellowstone entrances,
a woman was there, listen to this thankless job.
She was there.
She handed us the map and the, you know, whatever information on the park.
And then I went to present my card because I'm a cardholder.
And she's like, no need and there's no fee.
Go ahead and enjoy.
And she's still out of work.
I don't know if she's getting paid.
Huh.
I know.
Wow.
So do we have to pay taxes?
this year what do we have to pay taxes this you know a lot of people are not are not paying right
