1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Karen took me to hr for eating potatoes too sexily.

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: But I'm going to fight her with everything I've got.

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 3: You know, maybe you don't eat your potatoes sexy enough.

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe you should take some lessons like this potato

5
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: is so hot and steamy buttered up.

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 4: Take notes.

7
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: It honestly feels for I like the notes. Oh my god.

8
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: I honestly, it honestly feels ridiculous that I have to

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: post about this, which yeah, I mean, here we are, Yeah,

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: this is read it. But my coworker has been getting

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 1: onto me about this for weeks. My coworker's been on

12
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: to me. I have to ask my whole life, I've

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: been eating potatoes by microwaving them, then biding into them,

14
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: and then eating them hot dog style, and some would

15
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: say doggy style. Doggy wait, so microwave, biding in and

16
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: then hot style, like, oh, okay, this is the easiest,

17
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: most convenient and intuitive way for me to eat potatoes,

18
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: sweet potatoes or regular.

19
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 4: Oh.

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: I think this is how people in Japan eat them,

21
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: or at least this is how I was taught by

22
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: my Japanese parents to eat them. Anyone from Japan please

23
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: enlighten the comment below whenever I go to a grocery store,

24
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: I always pick out the most easily bitible potatoes, which

25
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 1: are generally longer and thinner than most potatoes.

26
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 4: Oh god.

27
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: So I work in an office of about thirty people.

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: We all typically bring our own lunch, and I usually

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: just eat at my desk while doing work. No one

30
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: has ever commented on how I eat potatoes, but I

31
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: do eat them fairly frequently. Recently, a new person was hired,

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: and she clearly has a problem with the way I

33
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: eat potatoes. A couple of times she pulled me aside

34
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: and asked me that I eat potatoes more normal way.

35
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: I asked her what she meant, and she said that

36
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: I was eating potatoes a little too suggestively.

37
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, just just just imagining this conversation. Yeah, just

38
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: another human Excuse me.

39
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but I am completely turned on and have

40
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: a rock hard cock for the way you eat potatoes,

41
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: and I just can't work.

42
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 3: I just noticed that you're slobbing on those starchy knobs,

43
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 3: and I just couldn't came. I became compelled to stop you.

44
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 1: That's essentially what this person is saying. I am too aroused. Yeah,

45
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: I was a little shocked because I literally just have

46
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: my eyes glued to my screen and I'm just watching.

47
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 4: I'm just taking notes.

48
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: Whenever I'm eating, and barely pay attention to how I

49
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: I told her, no one else seems to have a

50
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: problem with the way I eat potatoes. She insisted others

51
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: were just too polite to say anything. I asked a

52
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: few other coworkers who were all just confused as I

53
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: was about what she was saying. I figured no one

54
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: else really had a problem with it, But this happened

55
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: multiple times. She kept coming to me and asking me

56
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: to tone down the way I eat, even accusing me

57
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: of going out of the way to choose sexy potatoes.

58
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 3: Oh God, the Miya Khalifa of potato eating. I think

59
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 3: it's more like the Johnny Sins. Oh Amya Khalifa of

60
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 3: potato eating. The Johnny Sins of potatoes. Oh you know,

61
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 3: I got that. It's starchy, well, starchy, long, long and narrow, starchy,

62
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 3: long and narrow.

63
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: Just how I like it, just how I love them.

64
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: I've considered bringing them other ways, but this is just

65
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: the easiest way for me to eat them, and honestly,

66
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: they're so delicious. I asked her, maybe just don't watch

67
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: me eat?

68
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 4: No, how dare you?

69
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: But apparently that's just not feasible. No, impossible, unfortunately, she

70
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: reported me. And now I have a meeting har next week.

71
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: This seems really dumb to me. But am I the

72
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: a hole for eating sexy potatoes?

73
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 4: These potatoes are too damn sexy, you.

74
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: Know, Like I mean, I would understand if she was like,

75
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 1: I don't think she's doing that.

76
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 4: No, but John, there is an update.

77
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: Oh god, but would you ever make a comment about

78
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,239
Speaker 1: someone eating a food too sexily? Like? What's the line

79
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: for you?

80
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 4: I would never stop them? No, no, no, no, there is

81
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 4: no line.

82
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: What if someone's like like eating zucchinis or something and

83
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: you just hear like on the desk over for like

84
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: thirty minutes. Oh you're saying, you're saying there's no line?

85
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: Are you truly saying there's no line? Here? Done?

86
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,239
Speaker 4: So there's a line?

87
00:04:58,600 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 3: You know?

88
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 2: I would probably laugh.

89
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 3: What I would probably do as I would record it

90
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 3: and send it to my friends. That's what I would do,

91
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 3: se girlfriend.

92
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: First, Yeah, yeah, and then we would put it in the.

93
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: Our show some bread.

94
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 4: That's content, baby, all right?

95
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: But there is a enough date.

96
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go.

97
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: So I had a couple of meetings with HR. The

98
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: first one was on my own yesterday morning, alone with

99
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: a HR woman. According to her, a coworker had reported

100
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: me for sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment.

101
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: Not going to lie. After hearing those accusations, I got

102
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: honestly pretty scared. Sexual harassment is a really serious charge. Yeah,

103
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: which is true. I was allegedly making lewd gestures while eating,

104
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: despite repeatedly being asked to stop. I told her exactly

105
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: what had happened. I was eating potatoes the same way

106
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: I always had in the four years I've worked in

107
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: this office. No one else had ever had a problem

108
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: with this until now. The new coworker, let's call her

109
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: Karen fitting Nice, approached me, telling me I was eating

110
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: potatoes inappropriately and told me to eat them another way.

111
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 1: I had to explain to her this is how I

112
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 1: grew up eating, and I would not stop. If that

113
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: bothered there, she could and should look away. I continued

114
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: eating potatoes this way. Then over the next several weeks,

115
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: she kept complaining about my potatoes every time I ate

116
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: them this way. As I explained my side, I could

117
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: tell HR was getting really annoyed. I don't think she

118
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: believed that this was all there was to it. She

119
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: pressed me for more information. Are you sure you didn't

120
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: do anything to make her believe you were being inappropriate?

121
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: Are you sure you weren't harassing her even unintentionally? I

122
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: told her I never even talked to her unless it

123
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: was about work, and she approached me first. Hr thanked

124
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: me for coming in and told me she get back

125
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: to me. I think she met with Karen after that.

126
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: Then later in the day we had a meeting with

127
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: the three of us. Karen says I lied about not

128
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: doing anything to make her uncomfortable that after the first

129
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: time she came to me asking me to eat my

130
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: potatoes differently, I dimissed it as a joke, which, to

131
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: be fair, I did because I'm dead ass, which I

132
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: acknowledged because who wouldn't take it as a joke that

133
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: she claimed after each time.

134
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: It got.

135
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: That, she claimed after each time she asked me to

136
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: tone it down, I escalated by choosing increasingly sexy potatoes to.

137
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 4: Eat in front of her.

138
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,679
Speaker 1: I think this way was just turned on by pot.

139
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 4: Them taters are just totting me and all the right places.

140
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: Good God by which point I'm pretty sure Hr was

141
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: trying hard not to roll her eyes. I responded by

142
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: telling Karen I literally gave zero thought about her when

143
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: I bought my potatoes and selected them based on ease

144
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: of cooking slash eating. She accused me of making eye

145
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: contact with her while I was eating, which I think

146
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: I did every time she watched me. Hey, eye contact,

147
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: that's just curting.

148
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 4: Karen's just like.

149
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: What are you doing, and like Opie's like, no, I'm

150
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: eating my potatoes. I think I did every time she

151
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: watched me eat, because it's really uncomfortable having someone watch

152
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: me eat, which I explained, and I told her that

153
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: I had repeatedly asked her to stop watching me eat.

154
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,239
Speaker 1: She then pointed out that no one else eats potatoes

155
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: this way, and the only reason I would do this

156
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: was to try to be provocative. I just showed her

157
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 1: a video of Japanese people eating potatoes with your hands

158
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: inviting into them.

159
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 4: There we go.

160
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: Hu. Woman knows me and knows I'm not the type

161
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: to harass someone or deliberately make a hostile work environment.

162
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 1: And at the end, she just said something like I'm

163
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: sorry about the misunderstanding. Perhaps it really would be best

164
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: to look another way while your coworker is eating. Basically

165
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: trying to politely tell Karen to get her head out

166
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: of her freaking ass, she tried yet another angle, claiming

167
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: that the way I ate them with my hands was

168
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: a COVID risk and that it was putting the safety

169
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: of the office in jeopardy by eating this way. Hr

170
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: then said that if she was so concerned, she was

171
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: welcome to work from home, as his currently company policy.

172
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I work in hardware, so it's harder for

173
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: me to work from home, but Karen works in support,

174
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: so it would be relatively easy.

175
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 4: There we go.

176
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 1: Eventually, Karen had to concede she had nothing left, so

177
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: we were all dismissed. There is a little bit more

178
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: of an update. Wow, there's more so. I actually got

179
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: called into a meeting this afternoon with my boss, who's

180
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: also one of the founders of the company.

181
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 4: Oh.

182
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: He confessed that he didn't like Karen either, and that

183
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 1: she had multiple complaints about her within the first month

184
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: of her being hired. She has been here just under

185
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 1: two and that he had hired her as a favor

186
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: to his wife because she is his wife's cousin and

187
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: had lost her job due to COVID. He apologized to

188
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: me on her behalf and assured me that he would

189
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: talk to her. I decided to keep my harassment claim

190
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: with HR and have another meeting tomorrow. We'll see how

191
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: this goes. Thank you for all your tips and suggestions.

192
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 1: I will keep eating sexy potatoes for the foreseeable future.

193
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: And that is a wrap, folks. I want to know

194
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: what would you do if you were eating those sexy potatoes?

195
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: Would you stop? Or would you keep deep throating them

196
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: as far as the eye could see and as far

197
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: as your throat could take. I want to know what

198
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: you would do. But John, what do you think about

199
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: this whole story? Is OPI and a hole for eating

200
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: potatoes sexily?

201
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 4: I mean, it was just too damn sexy.

202
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 2: Dang hot, not the a hole.

203
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 4: And here's what I would do.

204
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 3: What I would take my fries, take my potatoes, get

205
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 3: get a little peeler and start peeling it. So huh,

206
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 3: the top of the potato looks.

207
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: It has a little head.

208
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 3: It looks a little little familiar, like a little mushroom

209
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 3: or I can't quite make out what it is. I

210
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 3: would I would carve that shape into there and then

211
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 3: I would just go.

212
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, right in front of like the noises too.

213
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 3: Just like naked so often and they get everyone else

214
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 3: in on it.

215
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, get everyone to deep throw potatoes would.

216
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 4: Be in solidarity. So everyone just like.

217
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: Every day at twelve, you just hear the whole oveice goal.

218
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: It's like it's like the church, yeah, or like what's

219
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: the minuet? What's the thing in like uh where they

220
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: have like the towers in like.

221
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 4: European centries or something for prayer? Yeah?

222
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: What are the towers called? Where they have the guy

223
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: with the noise like the caller minarets, the tower attached

224
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: to the adjacent the tower attached or adjacent to the mosque.

225
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: It's designed so the all to prayer issued from Moss

226
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: five times a day can be heard loud and curry

227
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: can be heard loud and clear throughout of town or city.

228
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 3: So instead of instead of prayer, it's a deep throating

229
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 3: phallic taters.

230
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: Hey, you know you gotta you gotta have some kinds

231
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: of rituals.

232
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 3: Get in where you fit in. That's what I always met, brother,

233
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 3: and fit into taters in your mouth. My dad thinks

234
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 3: he's getting married to an Egyptian princess and it's getting

235
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 3: scammed for a million dollars.

236
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 2: He won't listen to us.

237
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 5: The Egyptian princesses, they'll get you. I mean to think

238
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 5: about Cleopatra.

239
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 6: She convinced Alexander the Great to basically give up the

240
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 6: army for some.

241
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 3: Sweet, sweet poe exactly. I mean, you know, they're so

242
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 3: good at emails too. You know, Cleopatra was known to

243
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 3: be the greatest emailer of all time. So you know, yeah, yeah,

244
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 3: a little bit of background about my father because I

245
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 3: feel like it's relevant.

246
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 2: My dad is not a smart guy.

247
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 5: That's the background.

248
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 2: That's how we're kicking things off ladies and gentlemen.

249
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 5: Od's an idiot.

250
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 3: My dad is very trusting and has taken what his

251
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 3: friends have told him over his own dang family.

252
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 5: They're all playing poker with him and just like taking

253
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 5: all of his money.

254
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 3: About a year and a half ago, my mom thought

255
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 3: my dad had a girlfriend. Well, we found out he

256
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 3: was on some sketchy website he put in his email

257
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 3: and now is in correspondence with none other than an

258
00:12:51,559 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 3: Egyptian princess. And this is the classic Egyptian princess scam,

259
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 3: which I didn't know was a classic, but you know the.

260
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 4: Nigerian Vegegerian prince that's all.

261
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 5: Time hot, so all time classic.

262
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,359
Speaker 2: He had thought he married and gave her about.

263
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,119
Speaker 3: One hundred thousand dollars to help her get inheritance.

264
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 4: What thousand dollars?

265
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 5: What?

266
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 2: Also he thought he married her? What was he on?

267
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 3: Zoom in like an Egyptian courtroom? Like what what is

268
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 3: going on here?

269
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 2: Where's nowhere?

270
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 3: My dad had taken some documents to my brother and

271
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: asked him if he thought they were real, and surprise, surprise,

272
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 3: my brother told him they were not.

273
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 2: Shock her, did you actually.

274
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: Think an Egyptian princess would reach out to you via

275
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: email to get married?

276
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 2: He still wired the money.

277
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 3: My dad had this woman call and talk to my

278
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 3: mom to try and convince her that she really wasn't

279
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 3: my dad's wife or girlfriend, that she just wanted to

280
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 3: be a part of the family and give them money.

281
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 6: Dad's gonna give her money so she can give the

282
00:13:58,640 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 6: family money.

283
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 5: This is this money's only traveling in one direction.

284
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is like the Great Euphrates. This is going

285
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 3: to one person and everyone is in denial.

286
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 5: Oh.

287
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 3: We all sat down, my siblings' parents and I and

288
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 3: laid out to my dad that he was scammed and

289
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 3: he would not be getting his money back, et cetera.

290
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 3: My dad broke his phone. Why no idea, he could

291
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 3: have just changed his number. He bought a new phone

292
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 3: and changed his phone number. We all thought that this

293
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 3: was the end until January. My dad called and told

294
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: me that he continued to send this woman money, totaling

295
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 3: and guess.

296
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 5: How much, Samuel, and he's just like twenty five thousand.

297
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 3: Dollars more, three hundred thousand dollars.

298
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 5: Four house.

299
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 3: My brother and I meet with my mom at his

300
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: house and we start getting the rundown of what the

301
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 3: heck happened here. My mom said that even though we

302
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 3: all told him he was being scammed, he still didn't

303
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 3: believe us at all. My mom would keep telling him

304
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 3: he was getting scammed, and he would tell her that

305
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 3: he couldn't wait to get his money so he could

306
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: laugh in all of our faces.

307
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 5: Oh God, no, bro, you're still thinking you're getting that money.

308
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 4: Oh.

309
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 3: At some point these people and my dad convinced my

310
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 3: mom for a while that it wasn't a scam.

311
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: Dude, even the mom got sucked in.

312
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 5: How good are these scammering high. You're convincing the mom too.

313
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 3: My dad cashed out all of his stocks, his sweet

314
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 3: coin collection. He pawned all of his guns, including a

315
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 3: nice rifle that belonged to our great grandfather, and he

316
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 3: convinced my mom to get a second mortgage because they

317
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 3: were about to be rich.

318
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 5: No, you've really got the mom into.

319
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 4: Oh my god.

320
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 3: My parents paid off their brand new truck and travel trailer.

321
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 3: My mom dipped into her four oh one k. They

322
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 3: totally wiped out all of the savings that they had.

323
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 3: When the money didn't come back, my mom told my

324
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 3: dad that she was one hundred percent done and saying

325
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 3: that he was being scammed. So finally she sees it now.

326
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: This didn't stop my dad. He ain't a quitter. He

327
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 2: used the titles of the truck in the trailer he.

328
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 3: Paid for to borrow against them. He borrowed ten thousand

329
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 3: dollars from his best friend, and then he maxed out

330
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 3: all of his credit cards buying gift cards and did

331
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 3: the same thing with my mom's credit cards. I'm truly

332
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 3: like at a loss. When my mom got her statements,

333
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 3: that's when she found out that he was still giving

334
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 3: money She told him that he'd better tell us kids

335
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: or she would do it herself. So he called and

336
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 3: told us. He seemed to really believe that he had

337
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 3: been scammed this time. We are all super duper mad.

338
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 3: He ruined not only his life, but are moms too.

339
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 3: They have to file for bankruptcy and lose everything they've

340
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 3: ever wanted.

341
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 5: Oh my god.

342
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 3: Time went on, and I was trying to forgive my

343
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 3: dad a bit because I do love him. My mom

344
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 3: called me and told me that my dad was telling

345
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 3: one of his clients about being scammed, and she also

346
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 3: knew someone who had been scammed and had some of

347
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 3: it recovered, and my dad got that person's contact infohone

348
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 3: and was in the process to see if that guy

349
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 3: could help. My mom was so excited about it that

350
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 3: she told my sister on her birthday and asked me

351
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 3: not to tell her before What if this.

352
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: Is another scam? Flash forward to last Monday.

353
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 3: My dad called my husband asking if he could come

354
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 3: down and help fix his computer that the Microsoft tech

355
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 3: support called and showed him all the stuff wrong with

356
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 3: his computer. Hmmmm.

357
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: My husband asked if he had installed.

358
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 3: Anything, and he said no, but he let them remote

359
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 3: into his computer. Oh my god, Like, why this dad

360
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 3: is completely unprotected. He's going around doing anything on the internet.

361
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 3: Like if he had just simply used Guardio, he would

362
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 3: have protected himself from phishing sites, email scams, like everything.

363
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 2: He would have been good.

364
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: But he.

365
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 2: Was not good at all.

366
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,479
Speaker 3: But if you want to make sure you don't end

367
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 3: up like this, check our bilink to protect yourself. My

368
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 3: husband told him to turn it off. We went over

369
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 3: to their house so my husband could take a look

370
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 3: at it. He's trying to see if they could just

371
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 3: clean it and avoid reformatting. While my husban and was waiting,

372
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 3: he notices an email from Alex and can tell immediately

373
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 3: it's another scam. He looks at the website where he

374
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 3: sent the email in so incredibly fake. I could tell

375
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,679
Speaker 3: as soon as he showed me. So he calls my

376
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 3: dad outside and shows him how fake it is. My

377
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 3: dad asks, extremely surprised at this information. He still doesn't

378
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 3: get it. My husband explained to him how he's on

379
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 3: a sucker's list. Now. My husband told him any real

380
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 3: company can't ask for money for seven business days after

381
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,959
Speaker 3: they recovered the money. But my dad had already given

382
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 3: five thousand dollars from his business checking account. The fake

383
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 3: website had fields for bank account and routing numbers that

384
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 3: he put in there.

385
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 2: My dad came.

386
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 3: Inside and told my mom that the website was fake.

387
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 3: My mom had a very nonchalant attitude about it and said, oh, well,

388
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 3: nothing we can do about it now. There is no

389
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 3: way my husband was going to be able to recover

390
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 3: his computer, so we decided to take it home to

391
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 3: reform at it. My husband looked through his email to

392
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,479
Speaker 3: make sure there wasn't anything else getting potentially scammed. And

393
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 3: here's a few highlights. The alleged arrest for the recovery

394
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 3: scam for his money was a completely blank report, and

395
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,640
Speaker 3: he thought he was gonna get back two million dollars

396
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 3: even though he only lost three hundred thousand.

397
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 5: Uh, this guy is set a sucker.

398
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 2: Seriously.

399
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 3: The documents the guys were sending from the original scam

400
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 3: were so bad that you could literally google them. The

401
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 3: CEO of the Bank of America wasn't even the same

402
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 3: person anymore, and his name wasn't spelled correct and the

403
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 3: dates were totally off. My dad sent three brand new

404
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 3: iPhone xrs what.

405
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 2: Are you doing to someone? And he had given them.

406
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 3: His social security, a picture of his driver's license and

407
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 3: his parents full name, and here is the kicker. Before

408
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 3: my dad sent the recovery scammer the money, he had

409
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 3: asked my brother what he had thought, and my brother

410
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 3: told him the exact same thing my husband told him.

411
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 3: He warned him, but my dad still did it. Anyways,

412
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 3: I called my mom and told or not to believe

413
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 3: anything my dad says and to check with my husband

414
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 3: in the future.

415
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 2: She told me that she knew.

416
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 3: As soon as they started asking for money that it

417
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 3: was a scam, but he didn't believe her. And at

418
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 3: this point she just doesn't care anymore and is trying

419
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 3: to get the bankruptcy pushed so she could divorce my dad.

420
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 2: To this is just a rough situation.

421
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 3: I'm worried that my dad is going to do something

422
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 3: that is gonna hurt their bankruptcy filing and continue to

423
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 3: get scammed and get them in legal trouble. Is there

424
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 3: something my mom can do to take away his ability

425
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 3: from doing any of this? Is there anything we can

426
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 3: do to stop him?

427
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 6: Man is on a wild chase to literally give away

428
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 6: all of his money.

429
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 3: He wins the OSCAR for most Scammed human of all

430
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 3: time and also is like crazy.

431
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 6: That just like he went his entire life of making

432
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 6: money without getting scammed and then all of a sudden,

433
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 6: it's just like.

434
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,479
Speaker 3: Everything is gone coming bro that suckers Listen, they're hammer,

435
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 3: which is like it's just so sad because it's like

436
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 3: it compounds how tragic it already like he's already been

437
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 3: hit so hard and they're gonna keep going.

438
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 6: Yeah, probably it's probably easier to suck him in because

439
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 6: now he's already lost so much.

440
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 5: He's just like anything to help
