7
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: The Laser Stories segment where we read weird news stories

8
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: around the globe, just like everyone else does, except we've

9
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: got a laser.

10
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 3: There's other rope dopes, just don't. This first laser story

11
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 3: is out of France.

12
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: L A sixty two year old man named Bastian Fournier

13
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: is in the news after he went on a road

14
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: trip with his wife and daughter cool. They left Paris

15
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: for Morocco last Friday night to beat traffic.

16
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,919
Speaker 2: Can you imagine beol a road trip to Morocco? It

17
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: we're gonna go to South Dakota.

18
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: Yeah right.

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: It is a long drive, about twenty seven hours specifically,

20
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: and at one point Bastian pulled into a gas station

21
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: around four point thirty in the morning, apparently to fuel up,

22
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: and then he left and didn't realize for nearly two

23
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: hundred miles that his wife wasn't in the car.

24
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,199
Speaker 2: One hundred broke maybe two, right, but two hundred doesn't

25
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: matter where you are what culture you are? You were

26
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 2: not getting out of the doghouse.

27
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 3: My friend, so knowing he was in deep trouble.

28
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: Four hours after that stop, Yeah, he finally called police.

29
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 2: Oh her, Yeah.

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, she didn't have her cell phone.

31
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: The sirens are getting so loud, Jefferly coming.

32
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: From the Paris police have a long protocol sounds like.

33
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

34
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: The big problem was he couldn't remember which gas station

35
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: he'd stopped.

36
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 3: At, or even the city that it was in, and

37
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: at zone down.

38
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: Dude, he's it's so much more trouble that I thought.

39
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: And his daughter was sleeping during the stop, so she

40
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: wasn't any help. But Coups eventually found the wife by

41
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: tracking her nine to one one calls from the convenience

42
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: store she was.

43
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 2: Using the convenience storefront.

44
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: Made you he thought the wife was asleep.

45
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: Too, dude, if she didn't ever phone, she didn't even

46
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 2: have her credit card to at least, you know, have

47
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: a nice glass of wine by herself. Yeah, she really

48
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 2: could have used those four hours for good.

49
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, she was waiting there, sitting on the

50
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 1: curb the entire time for him.

51
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: Oh no, gee.

52
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: And at this point Copps thought there was a chance

53
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: that he had left her there on purpose, but they decided.

54
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 3: You know, it is probably just an honest mistake.

55
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Bastion's not in any legal trouble, just trouble

56
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: with his wife. So he eventually swung back around, picked

57
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: her up, and they continued on with their vacation.

58
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: And I'm sure they all laughed about it. The drive

59
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 3: to Morocco and I looked my.

60
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: Credit card at a restaurant recently, had to go ten

61
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: minutes back to get it.

62
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 3: I was so furious, imagine ten hours. Oh goodness, Lord.

63
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 3: His next Laser Stories out of San Jose.

64
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: For the past year named Helen Wayne Scott's been receiving

65
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: hundreds of Amazon packages and they all contained the same thing,

66
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: oversized fake leather car seat covers.

67
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: Random and they gotta be oversized so they don't fit

68
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 2: any car.

69
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all made in China and she didn't order them.

70
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 2: Oh.

71
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: At this point, Helen doesn't know what to do with

72
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: them anymore. They're scattered all over her property and now

73
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: she can't even fit her car into her garage.

74
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,839
Speaker 2: Helen does know if she could get rid of them, right,

75
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 2: like send them back or something.

76
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: No, that's the thing.

77
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: She repeatedly complained to Amazon, but they kept giving her

78
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: the run around.

79
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: Oh well, it.

80
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 2: Looks like she's got new business. Yeah, tell them again.

81
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: They promised the deliveries would stop, but they didn't, and

82
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: they were telling her to dispose of the boxes herself

83
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: or to donate the items, but Helen said she couldn't

84
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: afford to do that, and no charity wants hundreds of

85
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: fake leather seat covers.

86
00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 2: Oh really, you know, there's just no sad children out

87
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 2: there that don't need those.

88
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: You got to start that charity, bro.

89
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: But she contacted the local news and they looked into it,

90
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: and by day I mean one person, because that's what's

91
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: left in local news. But at least that one guy

92
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: figured it out. The Amazon seller in China was randomly

93
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: putting her address as everyone else's return address because then

94
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have to pay to have the large boxes

95
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: sent all the way back overseas to China.

96
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 2: It's a sham and they didn't have to deal with

97
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: the disposal of any of it.

98
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: So once Helen's story aired on the news, Amazon finally

99
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: sent a truck over to her house to pick up

100
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: all the seat covers.

101
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 2: Oh fine, we'll take care of it.

102
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 3: And they've supposedly taken care of the issue.

103
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: Yeah right, until next month.

104
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: Helen only gets thousands of many flashlights from team, and.

105
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 3: She's actually okay with that.

106
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: She's got all the space in her garage now she

107
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: can look around with those slash lights.

108
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 3: You're good to this next laser stories out of Food

109
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 3: news Day.

110
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: We recently celebrate National French Friday, and according to a

111
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: new report, the average American eats seventeen pounds of fries

112
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:07,559
Speaker 1: per year.

113
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 2: Get in my bell. I think my second grade son

114
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 2: does that on his own. It's crazy.

115
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: So if that seems low, then maybe it's because you're

116
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: eating more to compensate for some psycho who hates fries.

117
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 3: Reason. Across the whole.

118
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: Country, Americans eat at least five point six billion pounds

119
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: of fries, enough to fill one hundred and fifty five

120
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: eight hundred and thirty three school buses. Not sure why

121
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,080

Speaker 2: La plus Is the fries all right, Jeff?

123
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,760
