    NBA All-Star Race Wars & The Power of Bullying | Heightened Babble | Episode 18

    NBA All-Star Race Wars & The Power of Bullying | Heightened Babble | Episode 18Join comedians Brad Williams and JB Ball for an absolutely WILD episode dropping on Cinco de Mayo that just happens to fall on Taco Tuesday! In this hilariously unfiltered conversation, Brad and JB tackle everything from cultural appropriation to the greatest sporting event that will never happen - an NBA All-Star game where the best black players face off against the worst white players. The guys dive deep into a chef who lost 294 pounds after his friend texted him "fat fuck" every day (spoiler: bullying works?), debate whether there should be an all-black hockey team called the Atlanta Black Ice, and share the genius protest of British schoolboys who wore skirts to fight dress codes. Brad reveals his newfound love for cognac after his Club Shay Shay appearance, while JB proposes the most uncomfortable horror movie concepts ever. Plus, Venice Beach observations, Indian food pronunciation anxiety, and why both guys would absolutely pay extra for movie theater commentary from overweight Black women.

Katherine brings her signature 90s fashion energy (complete with Spice Girls merch and platform Sketchers) and chaotic Kentucky perspective to every story.The duo dives deep into the important questions: Do Jay-Z and Beyoncé have regular people sex? What would you do if you were invisible for a day? How much does it cost to actually SEE John Cena? Plus, they reveal their surprisingly dark revenge fantasies involving lottery winnings, discuss the ethics of tuning fork therapy vs. wizard scams, and debate whether Solange's glassware collection is actually art. Katherine shares her failed DM attempt at flirting with JB Ball, Brad reveals why his daughter's face is hidden on social media, and they both agree that if they ever win the lottery, their enemies better watch out.

    Brad's Secret Porn Career & Dumb Partner Confessions | Heightened Babble Episode 14

    Comedians Brad Williams and JB Ball return for another unhinged episode of Heightened Babble! In this wild ride, Brad drops a BOMBSHELL revelation about his past work in adult entertainment starring alongside Stormy Daniels (yes, really - Operation Desert Stormy), and the conversation spirals from there. The guys dive into listener stories about lying to kids, including an absolutely savage kindergartener who pulled her own tooth with PLIERS just to get her name on a classroom bulletin board. The conversation takes unexpected turns as they discuss everything from voodoo dolls being medical records to people who genuinely believe their pupils are actual holes in their eyeballs. JB shares his most awkward date ever that ended in a handshake, while Brad reveals that a former adult film star sold him his first house (and is now BACK in the industry). The hosts also break down the funniest and most disturbing "my partner is dumb" moments from listeners, including someone who thought airplanes were tall buildings, a person who didn't believe in time zones, and a 64-year-old man who thought his dick had an actual bone. This episode has it all - Indonesian porn laws, Lost and Found movie references, quarterback dating analogies, and debates about what makes someone immediately undateable.

    Tooth Fairy Left an IOU, Puppy‑Play Neighbors & Clone‑A‑Willy Fails | Heightened Babble Ep. 10

    Tooth Fairy Left an IOU, Puppy‑Play Neighbors & Clone‑A‑Willy Fails | Heightened Babble Ep. 10Get ready for a wild ride: Brad and JB unpack parenting fails (the tooth fairy leaves an IOU — yes, really), strange and hilarious neighborhood discoveries (from puppy‑play couples at 2AM to a naked man posing for an invisible photographer), jaw‑dropping street talent (a juggling performer spinning a ball on a stick in a crosswalk), and absolutely ridiculous adult‑product tales (the Clone‑A‑Willy disaster). Plus: a heated-but-funny takedown of revolving doors (history + sexism), craft‑party dildo painting, kinky neighbor confessions, and plenty of low‑blow social commentary. Subscribe, laugh along, and email your best neighbor‑kink or “lies you told your kids” stories to [email protected] — we read the best on air.In this episode we riff on the parenting curveballs—Brad’s daughter loses her first tooth and wakes up to a tooth‑fairy IOU (financial instability in the magical economy!). The hosts brainstorm tooth‑fairy side hustles, mob tactics for late payments, and the emotional fallout for kids who discover Santa‑adjacent deception. We pivot to LA street theatre: a talented crosswalk performer earns a $5 tip for juggling and spinning a ball on a stick — living proof that the streets are a weird, brilliant talent pool. Then Two Tall Tales delivers jaw‑droppers: neighbor sightings that range from public puppy‑play at 2AM (consenting adults + many questions) to a backyard mime‑photography session featuring a naked model. JB’s best second‑hand tale takes things to another level with a Clone‑A‑Willy molding gone wrong (spoiler: temperature issues + a ruined keepsake). The episode closes with a “Low Blows” riff on sexist inventions—revealing the revolving door’s annoying backstory—and absurd satire tying kitchen gadgets, cookies, and social pressure into one final laugh.

    Welcome To Heightened Babble with Brad Williams and JB Ball | Ep 01

    This inaugural episode of "Heightened Babble," hosted by comedians Brad Williams and JB Ball, dives into a variety of unusual and humorous stories, highlighting the absurdities of life that often go unnoticed. The discussion begins with a lighthearted introduction of topics, including a blind man who shot someone and a bizarre auction incident involving a baby. The hosts aim to bring attention to these lesser-known stories while providing comedic commentary, making the episode both entertaining and insightful.One of the standout stories covered is that of former NFL player Matt Kalil's divorce, which was reportedly triggered by an unusual reason: his size. Kalil's ex-wife described his anatomy in colorful terms, likening it to "two Coke cans." This revelation sparked a humorous debate between Williams and Ball about the implications of such a claim on Kalil's post-divorce dating prospects. They ponder whether this unique situation could be seen as a blessing or a curse, ultimately concluding that despite the unfortunate circumstances of divorce, there may be opportunities for Kalil to find a partner who appreciates his "size."The podcast also touches on societal norms and perceptions of relationships, particularly regarding physical attributes. Williams and Ball explore the idea of how such revelations could influence future romantic encounters, noting the existence of individuals who may seek out partners for unconventional reasons. They make light of the notion that each person's preferences can vary greatly, emphasizing the importance of understanding and navigating the complexities of attraction and relationships in a humorous yet thoughtful way.As the conversation progresses, the hosts examine the broader implications of the stories discussed, including the societal perceptions surrounding disability and relationships. They tackle the idea of gun laws for blind individuals by questioning whether different rules should apply, thereby igniting a discussion on the nuances of legislation and personal responsibility. The dynamic between Williams and Ball allows for a comedic yet insightful exploration of sensitive topics, showcasing their ability to balance humor with critical commentary.In conclusion, this episode of "Heightened Babble" presents an engaging mix of humor and social commentary, inviting listeners to reflect on the absurdities of life while celebrating the unique stories that often go unnoticed. Through their comedic lens, Williams and Ball encourage open dialogue about relationships, societal norms, and the complexities of human interaction, leaving audiences both entertained and contemplative about the world around them.#bradwilliams #JbBall #heightenedbabble #comedypodcastFollow JB and the show on youtube:@Iwritefunny1@HeightenedbabbleJoin the conversation by calling -323-272-3908 and leave us a mesage or email us: [email protected] Brad's Tour Dates: https://www.bradwilliamscomedy.com/Merch: https://brad-williams-store.myshopify.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BradWilliamsComic/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bradwilliamscomicInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bradwilliamscomicX: https://x.com/funnybradProduced by @theisaacabramsshow at Minimum Focus Studios
