    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.

    Misheard Lyrics, Viral Cop Video & The Masturbation Station | Heightened Babble | Ep 13

    Brad Williams and JB Ball deliver a fast, sharp, and funny episode packed with listener-submitted misheard lyrics, wild workplace policies (yes, masturbation breaks), viral oddities (a cop playing Beat Saber during an arrest), and the comedians’ signature conversational stories about touring, parenting, and odd gigs. The hosts riff on pop-culture misunderstandings—Elton John, Queen, Lil Yachty—and trade improvisation, personal anecdotes, and audience mail, making this episode a must-watch for comedy-podcast fans and anyone who loves candid, comedic banter.From listener “Nandrew” submissions to Too Tall Tales and a late-show rapid-fire list about “things men think they can do,” Brad and JB keep the energy high while delivering relatable bits (tooth fairy IOUs, smoke-detector chirps, parking flexes) and provocative takes (workplace masturbation policy, gaming-as-justice).

    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 heightenedbabble@gmail.com — 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. Stick around for listener callouts, email prompts, and all the recurring bits you love.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/funnybradChapters / Timestamps00:00 — Intro & welcome01:55 — Short Stories segment intro06:33 — Daughter loses first tooth / Tooth Fairy IOU story13:06 — Tooth‑fairy recession jokes & turning teeth into jewelry23:03 — LA street talent / juggling crosswalk performer (gave $5)36:46 — Two Tall Tales intro37:09 — Tale #1: Puppy‑play neighbors spotted at 2 AM44:18 — Reaction to producer’s photos / Puppy‑play Venn diagram jokes46:31 — JB’s neighbor stories (naked man posing for an invisible camera)49:22 — Clone‑A‑Willy story: molding mishap & ruined keepsake54:38 — Amazon gag: paint options for molds / sip & slurp craft jokes56:23 — Canvas & Cocktails / painting party bits59:19 — Call for listener neighbor stories (email us)01:07:15 — Segment: “Low Blows” (sexism, origins of the revolving door)01:16:13 — Revolving doors, airport hazards & Darwin’s revolving door01:18:33 — Easy‑Bake cookie satire & closing riffs01:23:36 — Episode recap & sign‑offcomedy podcast, Brad Williams, JB Ball, Heightened Babble, funny podcast, comedy YouTube, tooth fairy IOU, tooth fairy, parenting comedy, weird neighbors, puppy play, kink stories, neighbor kink, street performer, juggling crosswalk, clone a willy, adult product, adult comedy, NSFW podcast, neighbor stories, two tall tales, revolving door origin, sexist inventions, LA stories, comedy bits, comedy podcast 2026, podcast episode, standup podcastEmail / Submit StoriesSend “lies you told your kids” to: heightenedbabble@gmail.comProduced by:  @IsaacAbrams ​
