2-7-26 TP5 Romantic Things That Sound Erotic
The Rock 108 Morning Show with Brian Marshall · Tue Feb 10, 2026
Top five Tuesday and joined in the studio by friend of the show Tom Garland.
Good morning, Brian.
But I should have done ladies first.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I brought my
wife.
You did.
Hello.
Hi.
Welcome aboard.
Lady on board now.
Seeing this is the thing is Valentine's Day is coming up, which I have to imagine plays into a top five Tuesday today.
Yeah, definitely.
And and we thought because it was Valentine's Day that I should bring my beautiful wife.
This is Izzy Garland.
Hello, thanks for having me very excited.
So actress in Rudy's which is available now on Amazon Huskies which is available on to be a Model and an illustrator as well.
Yes all kinds of arts
So you've got not only the what is it the triple threat?
What is it the quadruple threat kind of like Jamie Foxx in a way?
Yes,
nice work.
Well, here we go brain buster today This is the most common item that people will hoard
but may never use it.
And earlier guesses included pennies, twist ties, and then Ted Smalley from Lion Hearts at Wedding Rings, Tom Garland.
Luckily, when I ordered that, still on the first.
And you said Jamie Foxx.
My wife is a little prettier than Jamie Foxx.
So I'll go with.
Whoa.
Jamie Foxx is.
kind of pretty though.
Whoa.
Oh,
okay.
You didn't know this?
I didn't know.
Maybe I am hoarding wedding
rings.
What you got for a guest here today, if you were thinking on this, the most common item that people will hoard but may never use it is, I'll go to you first.
What do you think?
You know, honestly, I hoard a lot of pictures of my dog on my phone.
Too many pictures and it serves no purpose.
I take a picture, just disappears.
Really?
Yes.
I mean, if you've got one of the dog face on, is it just, okay, I got one today, now I got one for tomorrow or?
No,
it's like 20 in a row of the same pose.
Same exact expression, but somehow they're all different to me and I need to have them all.
You need to have them all.
Do you ever put them anywhere?
I close them online.
Yeah.
So maybe I get likes from it.
I get a little something, but it's definitely not monetary value.
You don't have that many pictures of Tom, do you?
No, sorry.
The dog definitely outweighs Tom.
Tom, you got a guess on this one?
Yeah, first, I just don't understand why people think hoarding is bad.
That's such an American thing.
He has too much stuff.
Oh, dad, you have too much stuff.
We have to get harder than all the stuff.
That's an American thing.
This would never happen in other countries.
You wouldn't be in Ghana or Sudan, and they would say you have too much stuff.
They would say the opposite.
They'd be like, dude, your dad is the greatest hoarder in the history of this
village.
Every day he brings home tons
of
stuff.
Yeah, most of it's bro.
I don't care.
Dog pictures, whatever.
I'll eat one of those.
That looks
like
meat.
It looks like meat.
Nice.
Yeah.
Interesting.
No guesses, though?
Okay.
Uh, guess, uh, things that are, these are things that are hoarded.
Yes.
The most common item that people will hoard, but may never use it.
Geez Epstein files.
Oh, well, there's that
too.
I've got a bunch of those right now.
I don't know.
Everybody has a lot of
those.
What am I gonna do with them, right?
Wow.
I've just I've been making more.
I've just been typing emails and getting a black magic marker out and crossing out all the names.
Has your dog made the Epstein files yet?
Not yet.
Not yet.
Okay, that's good.
It didn't go to Epstein Island.
Let's go to the 319-234-5369.
Hi, who's this?
That's Brad.
Hey Brad, morning.
So I'm gonna go with this guest because it's first thing in the morning.
came to my mind because of my stepdad.
So he hoarded beer Stein
anywhere and anywhere or what?
All the Budweiser ones and he had, he would get them off eBay from different countries.
He probably, when he passed away, we had to get rid of, sell, give to family, whoever, probably 3000 beer style.
For the, using the term, was the juice worth the squeeze?
Oh God, no.
By the time my mom and I got rid of the last one, we just jokingly did the math in our heads between what we sold, what we gave away, blah, blah, blah.
The money we took in was less than money that we paid in shipping to ship them out.
Oh man, Brad, you made me think about this.
Like my mom holds onto these things.
They're almost like precious moments figures, but they're cows.
And Izzy, the thing's called Mary Moomoo's.
And she has, like, several hutches filled with these.
She has
Terry Redlin, like, it's like, like, winter scenes of plates and such like this.
That's cute.
That cute might be the word for it, but not profitable, so.
What are they called?
Which one?
The Moomoo's?
Yeah, Mary Moomoo's.
Those are like figurines.
Yeah, but they're cows.
Wow.
That's that's like that's like old lady nerdy.
You know, that's like you guys have the pop the pop figurines in here.
That's more
like.
Yeah, that's more GameStop kid.
Yeah, those are cool.
Yeah.
Moomoo's aren't you get to be an 85 year old woman.
That's like Mary Moomoo sounds to like I couldn't afford precious moments.
So I went with Mary Moomoo.
She really likes cows.
All right.
All right.
That's a door.
I'll tell her that next time I see
her.
Who used all the Wi-Fi?
Ah, apartment life.
Bad Wi-Fi, mystery laundry piles, and a roommate who says, I'll Venmo you.
Maybe 2027 deserves an upgrade.
Coming August 2027, Four Lakes Properties introduces the brand new Union Station Apartments, furnished in-unit washer and dryer.
Internet included a great central downtown location, one to five bedroom apartments, and no double occupancy fees.
That's less adulting and more actually enjoying where you live.

Yeah, he did have different pictures he used.
I'm kidding, no.
No, like seriously, what was it about?
Did he mention that he was doing stand-up at the time
on Tinder?
Honestly, it was he was very honest in his bio and his pictures were not like with giant groups of people.
It was just him, no filter.
So he was very genuine in his presentation of himself and I liked that.
What questions did Tom ask of you?
Did he ask for any photos?
Yes, yes, honestly, we started straging photos.
He wanted to talk on the phone.
He was very eager, so I could tell.
I could tell I had it in the bag already before I even showed up for the first date.
We met in Las Vegas, and in Las Vegas, I had moved there and was trying to date, and everybody that I would meet is like, I'm a working girl, honey.

Number four hands on approach
That's nice, too.
Sometimes I like hands on if the oral compliments use too much teeth, you know, if there's a lot of teeth in those compliments.
Yeah, you gotta be able to stop things
sometimes.
You just say,
hey, hold on.
Is it a hand though, or is it just a finger?

How firm does it have to be?
I mean it
It's gotta be firm.
It can't be soft.
This is America.
Sometimes the flag is at half-mast, you know?
Well, they make a pill for that.
Does it cause irreversible damage to the kidneys and liver?
Yeah, yeah, sometimes.
But is it worth it?
I think.
It's just gotta be firm.
Top five Tuesday today, my friends, with Izzy Garland.

We'll put an ice cube in there, Melania.
We'll make a clean exit.
I want you all to inject bleach.

That's the new one from ashes to new called drag me on rock 108.
Hey Tom garland.
What up?
Is he's gone?
Yeah, we got her out of here.
That's awesome.
No, I'm just saying that you can you can speak freely now.
I
know I just mean like the pressure is like I'm like,
okay.
Yeah,
so back to the Jessica Alba thing.
Yeah
My wife, she was like, we're watching the Super Bowl.
And I was
like, oh, that's Jessica Albin.
She's like, are you sure?
I was like, oh, I'm sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
My wife is beautiful though.
Wasn't she great?
Yes.
Absolutely.
She's listened to enough of your jokes that she's starting to write her own.
Yeah.
I would have watched out.
She's always been, she's naturally funny, real life funny.
You know, I'm a little rehearsed, funny.
But I appreciate Brian that you, you know, even on air here, I appreciate you bringing her in and letting
her on.
And that was cool.
I think from my perspective, you just got me laid.
So that's
good.
Yeah.
Oh, well, I mean, it's, you know, the tag team.
What do you call a wingman that there's
no tag
team?
Oh, yeah.
Sorry about that.
You got me laid, Brian.
I'm married.
I'm married,
man.
I got you.
Still got to try to get laid, though, after you're married.
Well, maybe you could do this, because the cost of a dozen roses, right now, on average, in America, $93.07.
If you think about it, if you were to kind of put your brain to this one time, and you travel the US, where do you think the most expensive dozen roses exists right now, if you're to buy it in a state
In the United States, where is it at?
Well, I would like honestly any have you ever done like the rose delivery?
I
don't want to
say the name of it if they're a sponsor
or something
like that.
Okay.
Well, whatever Forget them.
It's it's FTD, you know the FTD roses and
they
deliver that's always it's like door-dash all of a sudden you're like you're like I'll get six dollars with the roses and then you click through and at the end It's like you bought an Allegiant flight and they're like that's a thousand dollars.
How did you do that to me?
Yeah
Yeah, they're like, do you want to add chocolates?
Do you want to add a bear?
Do you want to add a note?
If you don't add the note, the note says, I hate you.
And
you're like, no, I want to add the
note.
What?
Yeah, so.
And just like this right now, for an extra subscription price, you can get some blue chew, too.
You know, a little blue pills, 100 and get this $27 in the state of Hawaii.
Hawaii for it, which makes sense because you have to fly the roses out there and you know
Don't you think you just go?
I've been to Hawaii wouldn't you just go down to the beach and grab a pretty flower and then that's your flowers?
But if this is roses, this is specific roses.
Yeah, they want they want to make sure that they're roses I was gonna say maybe Alaska you would think that's the Alaska is another good guess.
They're about average right now Where do you think the cheapest dozen roses is at in the?
United States in the United States El
Paso, Texas
Texas actually one of the highest really yeah, I thought one hundred and twenty three thirty three on average for a dozen roses in Texas and get some deep in the heart Texas
I lived
in
Texas, so I know this I like that you just went turning point USA on me right there.
That's right there
There's an alternative half-time show.
Yeah, here you go.
We're gonna have a forecast next from KCRG TV 9
You don't need
to
know the following
fact, but you know you
want to.
It's Brian's Brain Buster on Rock 108.
Brian Marshall, along with a friend of the show, Tom Garland.
This is the most common item that people will hoard, but may never use it.
It is the Brain Buster sponsored by PuroClean, a Cedar Rapids.
Your first call for fire and water damage, 3198048288.
Earlier guesses, Tom included things like pennies.
Twist ties.
That's good
pens Wedding rings was from Ted Smalley old magazines.
We talked about the two dollar bills Yeah, some other ones that had popped up the toothbrushes that you get from the dentist.
Oh, that one's good That is a solid guess here.
I got one more quick one.
All right.
Yeah,
that's
your packets.
Oh
gosh
I have so many, what am I preparing for like a condiment war or something like that?
I have so many ketchup packets.
Do you even like ketchup?
Not really, no.
Why do you have them?
I
don't know, I have that.
I have so many grocery bags.
I don't know, what do I
think Hy-Vee's gonna ask for them back?
Yes.
Or something like that.
Paper or plastic?
Well, I got enough plastic.
Can I have the paper please?
Like
I'm gonna get a quarterback, like there's a deposit on it.
Like I'm at Aldi with a shopping cart
or something.
Oh yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah, Aldi doesn't, you gotta buy those bags.
Yeah, the bags I meant to shop, whatever.
No, you got to buy those at Aldi.
Yeah, that's it's a whole nother world at Aldi That is it's like when you go to the the when you turn in the cans at Walmart Yeah, right if you don't go to the can shed it is a whole nother world You do a specific order.
You're supposed to do this and you do your cans last
what why?
I know they get so weird about that.
The thing I did recently was, this is a hoarding, well, someone said pennies, so I'd say change.
You know, yeah, I do that.
I'm the guy with a big, and I take like the big bin of change into Walmart to Coinstar.
It is like an oddly satisfying sound, though, to hear that it is.
And it just like eats the money.
You're like, that's awesome.
Lenny's got a last second guess.
He said cardboard boxes.
Wow.
Yeah.
If you ship or anything like that, what are you doing?
You're trying to find every great box that I'm going to use that someday.
Yeah, build a fort.
It's I'd love to do that.
We've got two tasting the sweet victory today.
This is a good one here today because only two get it right So you got Daniel Jess and Joe H both on the Facebook page here today getting this one right most common item that people will hoard but may never use it You could you just don't and they're charging cables Yeah, you know yeah, I have so many they're just broken.
Yes.
I
just why am I keeping that
yep?
Or it's for a device that you don't use anymore.
You don't use it anymore.
But you still have it.
An electric razor and you're like, this doesn't fit with anything.
Why do I have this?
Because you want to hold on to it.
There's something there.
Charging cables is the answer for today's Brain Buster.
Another one goes live tomorrow morning, 5.35 a.m.
on the Rock 108 Facebook page.
Green Sleep Theory on Rock 108.
Tom Garland still with us here today.
Yeah, it's hanging out, man.
Yeah.
You're going to take a job here.
Is that how that's going to work?
I would love that.
Are you
hiring?
Uh, I don't think so.
Somebody's got to clean the bathrooms.
Yeah,
with your stand-up special, you had sent me a message that I'm somehow involved
in this.
Yeah, I have a brand new stand-up special.
It's coming out tonight, debuts tonight.
Did you know you can do this on YouTube?
You can set a premiere.
So there's gonna be a YouTube premiere.
It's absolutely free.

It's a stand-up comedy special that I recorded at CSPS.
There's improv.
There's crowd work.
It's all new material.
It's my third one.
And you're in it.
You're in the credits.
I slipped some ra-
clips of us and there's some video of us and yeah.
That leads to my next question.
Is this, you have an IMDb page, right?
I do have an IMDb.
If I were to create one, what would my credit be on this particular special?
You
would be, they actually, when they
do that, they credit you as self.
Self?
Self, so it'll
be like,
you know, Brian Marshall as himself.
Yeah, yeah.
It's more like technically stand-up specials are like a documentary.
Sure, sure.
You
know?
Okay.
So in your last stand-up special, my face was in there.
I think you're credited on it.
Yeah, you did
credit
me.
And I appreciate that very much.
So I have a credit there.
I have a voice credit in this one, yes?
No, a video too.
Oh,
yeah.
Wow.
Yep.
Our mutual friend, Justin Roberts, snuck him in there.
Okay.
I got release forms from neither of you.
Yeah, there's
that.
So right now I have two credits for stand-up specials and uncredited extra in Little Big League.
Really?
Yeah.
Little Big League, you're in that?
My foot is.
Okay.
Where did they film that?
At the Metrodome.
Way back when I was in middle school.
That's cool.
Yeah.
In the scene where the twins take on the Mariners and they hit the ball over the fence.
I was definitely there amongst the cardboard cutouts.
That's cool.
Just to be there and see them shoot would be fun.
It was fun.
There was one point that somebody, it was second unit and they were hitting
Balls are on the infield and one bounced through and hit What I want to say is like a PA or something like that.
Oh, yeah square in the balls.
Yeah,
it was awesome.
He drops and everybody's like, oh, I
wish they had that on the blooper reel One of my first gigs was I worked at the Daily Island I did video stuff for them when I was in college and I'm trying to learn how to be in this world and They were like you can shoot field hockey
And I was like, I don't know anything about field hockey.
And, you know, it's girls hitting ball sticks.
And the ball, I didn't realize the ball is like really, really hard.
Like it looks like a tennis ball.
It's not.
It's like David kills Goliath ball.
And so I'm standing like right next to the field filming and some, you know, ball goes a skew.
I took one in the shin.
Oh, everything not to cry in front of all these women.
They're like, the girls are giving me out.
They're like, did that hurt, honey?
I'm like, I'm okay.
They're division one
field
hockey.
You could say, yeah, yeah.
It's like a rocket.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ouch, ouch, please console me.
Today's Daily Dumbass comes to us from a special
state.
That's right, Tom Garland.
Always.
Florida checking in again today.
It's a 47 year old man from Florida named William everybody say hi William Hello Bill He got into an argument with some teenagers and a McDonald's and then William was so mad that he heaved a Dr. Pepper at the teens You're so mad.
Yeah, you're blinded with rage.
You throw a Dr. Pepper towards the
teens
Yeah, I feel like that could happen.
I I don't think that would ever happen at Taco Bell with a Baja Blast though
Well, you mentioned a Baja Blast This doesn't end here.
Oh the Dr. Pepper is the first part of it The second part of it is he drops his pants and he mooned them.
Oh, yeah I didn't know that was still a thing that when you get mad you decide to
Show the cracker your ass.
I don't think
it is I think that used to be like when we grew up They called that mooning right now.
They call it sexual assault.
Yeah I wonder I wonder if I thought you're gonna say you threw another pop like there's free refills
or something but you know if you or the thing where you're like let me get a water cup and then you just get you get
like Sprite and
whatever but no I wonder if if you moon someone is there free refills on that too
well he moons them and William didn't just flashes them he smacks his backside and then rubs his left butt cheek so there's that too so I think you might be right
I feel like he went from raging like
Raging mad to raging horny in like like all of a sudden he was like this is kind
of hot despite all my rage I still show my butt in the day Someone called police they showed up arrested William charged him with simple battery and two counts of lewd exhibition He admitted to the moaning of the teens and said he did it because he felt upset and insulted.
Yeah Today from Florida.
That's not the information I'd want out about me in jail
Drop the soap.
There is no soap.
Then drop the Dr. Pepper.
Yeah.
Why don't you come on over here, William?
Or should I call you Bill?
Uh, producers, Fen, we need you to play the song, please.

Tom Garland, who usually is heading off somewhere else, but hanging out with us here today, and I do dig that.
I appreciate it.
How many years in stand-up now?
16 years today.
I did 16 years ago tonight, I did my very first open mic.
Which was where?
at the Penguins Comedy Club at the time when it was out at the Clarion Hotel.
It's very cool.
A very funny guy, Danny Franks, hosted the show and I called the club.
I didn't really know how to do it or anything and so I called the club and I said, oh hey, I want to be a comedian.
I want to sign up for Open Mic and Danny was like, okay.
I was like, what do I do?
And he goes, come down, be on stage.
And then I was like, okay.
And so I got that.
You know, he's really nice.
But I just, I get how it like on the phone, he was like, what do you want me to tell you?
Just come down.
Do you remember any of your jokes from that first night?
Not necessarily, no.
I remember, I think maybe I told a version of one.
that I later developed better, but it was about the holidays.
Maybe you've heard me tell this where I say, I wish there was one big holiday.
You know, there's too many holidays.
There's a holiday like every month.
You
just had the Super Bowl and then pretty soon it's 4th of July and then all of a sudden all the big holidays start.
I wish it was just one big day.
I'd still spend all the money and just do it on one day.
You'd be at like an Easter egg hunt at a haunted house.
Somebody just scare the hell out of you.
I'm sorry, man, Merry Christmas.
Here's a turkey.
Wash it down with some of this green beer.
I'll put in a Mayday basket for you.
I love all of these things.
We should do that.
We could make it, uh, we could have this happen here in Eastern Iowa.
Just, just let's start it here.
You do it all on 420.
That'll make
sense.
Well, yeah, there you go.
It's just like, oh, why is everything so smoky?

Let's yes, we do have the audio.
That's you
think you got a pad.
Here we
go Which GTA we talked about?
Oh, you got ages for
that
So I Robert Richens on the 30th of May 2025 said the following I accidentally killed her at least I admitted to it.
I'm gonna miss GTA.
I'm going to get life
Wow, he's missing out on GTA 6
Yeah, we may never get GTA 6.
So, you know, I, I feel like what a weird thing to admit to.
Here's the thing.
I obviously is a bad guy.
Yeah, I wouldn't be afraid.
I can't imagine being murdered by somebody British.
Oh, like, I just wouldn't be afraid of that.
The politeness.
You know, I've been over there.
I did stand up there in London and they say like when they do stand up they'll be like Hello, may I tell you
a joke?
And then the crowd is like you may Like you imagine him coming over like may I come in miss?
Well, you are my ex-boyfriend, but you may come in.
He's may I stab you in the throat You may Wow You
know, I can't imagine him being
if the glove
doesn't fit you must quit as he as he flies down it I guess it wouldn't be the
He'd be like in a buggy, right?
Yeah, or a mini Cooper.
Yeah, one of
those two.
Yeah, I worry W I worry though is that if he ever plays to player on GTA Hmm, what happens if they beat him?
Does he turn around and then beat them in real life?
Yeah, can you imagine being on the Xbox live chat with that guy?
He's like, oh, cheerio, when I'll get
parole, I'm
gonna
come pay you a visit, mister.
I'm
gonna
kill you like the last one.

Louis from 10 years ago.
Oh

So this is a rare thing.
Tequila shot with Preston Lacey of Jackass fame.
Yeah.
This is nine years ago.
Yeah.
And then there you go.
There you are, dying to kill, sitting right there.
The tequila thing, I did a bunch of tours with the Jackass guys, but Preston Lacey especially, him and I went all over the country, 40 cities at one point on one run, and we would always do the tequila stuntman.
You guys know what
this
is?
You snort the salt, squeeze the lime in your eye, and then you take the shot at tequila.
They call it tequila stuntman.
Well, we would do this on stage, and then afterwards people would be like, that's not real.
And you're like, what do you mean, that's not real?
My eye is like red.
Right,
that's not real about it.
And then they would be like, that's not real.
And I'd be like, fine, buy me another one.
And
then they
would buy it.
And then they'd be like, I want to do one too.
And then the worst part of it was it was 40 shows in a row, 40 cities.
and we're gonna do one every night on stage.
I ended up doing like six afterwards
every
night on stage, just because people were wanting a selfie doing it.
Do you have something where you don't like lime anymore?
I don't like rock salt
anymore.
No, no.
I can still do a lime, not a rock salt.
So it's all right here.
You can check it out.

Dude, thanks for having me, guys.
I appreciate it.
Good to see you, Tom.
