  • Poop‑Induced Amnesia + Jazz‑Loving Coke Rats | Heightened Babble Ep 16
    Apr 21 2026

    Heightened Babble drops a chaotic new episode with Brad Williams & JB Ball — listener mail, wild stories, award-winning porn confessions, a literal poop-induced amnesia headline, cocaine-loving jazz rats, and a statue so uncanny it sparks "We're coming for you" energy. Two comedians, zero filters, and a whole lot of ridiculousness. Tune in for the laughs, the absurd takes, and the best kind of unhinged banter.Brad and JB kick things off with tour dates and voicemail info, read hilarious listener stories about clueless exes and geography fails, and reveal that Brad quietly appears in an AVN-award–winning comedy. Then Two Tall Tales serves up the real (and weird) news: a woman briefly loses ten years of memory after a violent bowel movement. Later, a study about rats on cocaine preferring jazz leads into an all‑in poop chat, group‑chat confessions, and a relentless takedown of the Hulk Hogan statue from WrestleMania weekend. If you like uncensored comedy podcasts that swing from absurd headlines to personal confessions, this is for you.Join the conversation!Emails us - Heightenedbabble@gmail.comcall and leave us a voicemail 323-272-3908 Follow us on social media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heightenedbabblepodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heightenedbabblepodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Heightened-Babble-Podcast/61585004459148/X: https://x.com/heightenedbabblBrad's YouTube: @BradWilliamsComedy Brad's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bradwilliamscomicJB's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jbballcomedyChapters00:00 — Intro & Setup (Brad & JB)01:17 — Tour Dates & Live Shows03:37 — How to Send Mail / First Class Mail intro05:35 — Listener Mail: Dumb partners & racist mixups11:11 — Brad’s AVN Award Revelation / Operation Desert Stormy26:20 — Listener Mail: Lost-in-Massachusetts story30:31 — Two Tall Tales: Hong Kong poop — ten years lost36:00 — Poop chat & The “shit chat” (men’s group check‑ins)47:46 — Two Tall Tales #2: Rats on cocaine prefer jazz01:11:22 — They Don’t Speak For Us: Hulk Hogan statue roast01:24:50 — Wrap, reminders & final tour datesHeightened Babble is what happens when two stand-up comedians who couldn’t be built more differently take on the world one ridiculous conversation at a time.

    Apr 14 2026

    Welcome to another wild episode of Heightened Babble! While JB Ball is out, comedian **Katherine Blanford** (of Coastal Idiots podcast fame) steps in as guest co-host alongside Brad Williams for an absolutely unhinged conversation you won't want to miss. From Iranian bank robbers who paid wizards for invisibility powers to a preschool director who stole millions to fund her WWE obsession, this episode has it ALL. 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
    Apr 7 2026

    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. Fair warning: your abs will hurt from laughing!Chapters00:00 - Intro & Tour Dates (Sioux City, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Madison)01:00 - First Class Mail: Listener Stories About Lying to Kids08:11 - The Cake Monster Dad Who Hid Dessert From His Son14:21 - Gangster Girl Pulls Own Tooth with Pliers Story28:14 - Two Tall Tales: French Influencers Arrested for Porn in Bali37:21 - Brad's Porn Career Revelation (Operation Desert Stormy)48:15 - Former Porn Star Sold Brad His House (She's Back!)52:12 - Dating Red Flags & The Legendary Handshake Date57:43 - Guy Kidnaps Three-Legged Dog Like "Lost and Found" Movie1:00:16 - Dumb Partner Moments: Time Zones, Gravity & Buildings1:07:02 - Half-Cooked Chicken & The Dick Bone Revelation1:13:43 - Relationship Advice & Wrap UpTour Dates:- April 9: Sioux City, Iowa- April 10: Minneapolis, Minnesota - April 11: Milwaukee, Wisconsin- April 12: Madison, WisconsinBrad Williams' new comedy special "Live on Short Street" premieres April 12th on his YouTube channel!Follow us on social media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heightenedbabblepodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heightenedbabblepodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Heightened-Babble-Podcast/61585004459148/X: https://x.com/heightenedbabblBrad's YouTube: @BradWilliamsComedy Brad's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bradwilliamscomicJB's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jbballcomedySubscribe for more Heightened Babble episodes every week!## TagsBradWilliams, JBBall, HeightenedBabble, ComedyPodcast, StandUpComedy, PodcastClips, FunnyStories, DatingFails, RelationshipAdvice, AdultHumor, ComedianPodcast, PodcastHighlights, FunnyPodcast, Comedy2026, StandUpComedian, LittlePeople, DwarfComedian, HilariousPodcast, NSFW, BehindTheScenes, StormyDaniels, DatingHorrorStories, RelationshipPodcast, ComedySpecial, YouTubePodcast, PodcastShow, LaughFactory, ComedyStore, AdultFilm, RealEstateStories## Hashtags#Comedy #Podcast #Funny #StandUp #Relationships #DatingLife #ComedyGold #PodcastLife #Hilarious #LOL #ComedyCentral #LaughOutLoud #WildStories #AwkwardMoments #BradWilli#podcast #comedy #comedian #comedians #funny #podcastclips
