In another interview on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, Glaser shared another joke she did not make it to the stage. “Tom, I love your work – you’ve done on your face,” read one of her jokes about the GOAT’s alleged plastic surgery that she cut. Glaser was about to criticize Brady for the overworked appearance of his face by comparing him to a Ken doll. “Seriously, slow down,” she read. “What’s going on with your cheeks? You look like a Ken doll that was microwaved. You love deflating things, so stop it.”
