1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Hi, Kurt, Scottie, you got one for me?

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 2: I'm going to start it off. I started them off

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 2: a little bit less frequently than you do, but I

4
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,720
Speaker 2: got one that I think you're gonna like.

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 3: I'm excited.

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 2: Two penguins. Two penguins apprehended after sneaking back into sushi

7
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 2: shop that they were already kicked out of.

8
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's bananas. Do world understand?

9
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 2: Would you.

10
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: Your life?

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 2: Tzillion pieces? Would you do?

12
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: BAA, Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to Bananas, your one stop

13
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: shop for strange news and friendship.

14
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: I agree. I think it's a place where you come

15
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: when you want to hear headlines that you don't see

16
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: on boring normal websites, boring normal podcasts, and then sixteen

17
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 2: years of friendship just pouring itself through a zoom recording

18
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 2: directly into your ears.

19
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: Scotti, where are you?

20
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: I'm in Amarillo, Texas. I'm heading back towards Los Angeles.

21
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,839
Speaker 2: I am in a really funny airbnb that is well

22
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: decorated and very nice. But they don't have ice. They

23
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: don't have ice trays. They have a refrigerunt a freezer.

24
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 2: So the first night I put water into red solo cups.

25
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 2: And just frozen halfway and had halfway cups of ice.

26
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:48,919
Speaker 1: That's smart.

27
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: And then I discovered something you might know this. I

28
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: didn't know this. You can go to almost any fast

29
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: food chain and order a bag of ice. What.

30
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:58,919
Speaker 1: No, I didn't know.

31
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: No, I didn't know it either. I drove. I went

32
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: to a Sonic because they have that crushed pebble ice

33
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 2: chewi ice as they say in the South. And I said, Hi,

34
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 2: can I buy two extra large cups of just ice please?

35
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: And they go, do you want to bag? We sell

36
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: bags of ice? And I said yeah. So I told

37
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: my friend Avery and she was like, yeah, you can

38
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: buy bags of ice from fast food restaurants.

39
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: Wow. I love that. I had no idea. I'm always

40
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I used to always need bags of ice.

41
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: I no longer needbags of ice because I haven't had

42
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: a party in over a year. That's good to know.

43
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 2: So I'm currently sipping a daytime cocktail with Sonic crushed

44
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: pebble ice. So thank you very much, Sonic.

45
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: Thank you Sonic. All right, give me, give me, give

46
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: me what this story is all about.

47
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: Okay, So there were these two penguins. Two penguins apprehended

48
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 2: after sneaking back into a sushi shop that they were

49
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: already kicked out of. This was written by Kaylee Rizzo

50
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: Kayley Nobody's better than Kylle Rizzo for Travel and Leisure,

51
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 2: best in the Biz, and it was sent in a

52
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 2: long time ago. This one was sent in over the summer.

53
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: It got lost in the shuffle by Paul Anthony aka

54
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 2: I Am that PMA on Instagram. Thank you, Paul Anthony.

55
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 2: Two penguins in New Zealand defied police on Monday by

56
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 2: returning to a sushi shop in Wellington, not a few

57
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: days after they were escorted from the premises. A pair

58
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 2: of blue penguins were called quote waddling vagrants by a

59
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: local police after they were twice removed from the same

60
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 2: sushi store. But instead of trying to get some fresh

61
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 2: tune rolls, officials believe the penguins were more likely nesting

62
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: underneath the shop. A staffer first noticed something. I know,

63
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: it's so cute.

64
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: It's like all of a sudden, like that's the problems

65
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: in New Zealand. Like they have no COVID, but they

66
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: have rampant penguin abuse. Like that's amazing, Like penguins are

67
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: coming and using your home when you don't want them to.

68
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: That's right, and what a delightful thing to have invade

69
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 2: your space. Anyways, So a restaurant's staffer first noticed something

70
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 2: was amiss after hearing a cooing and humming sound from

71
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 2: near the warm grills beneath the mobile food truck. Constable

72
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 2: Zoo responded and after sensing something fishy.

73
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: Good writing Kelly.

74
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 2: After sensing something fishy, she established that the penguins were

75
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 2: officially nesting underneath the food truck near the station. The

76
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: Department of Conservation and the Wellington Zoos showed up to

77
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,679
Speaker 2: safely remove the penguins and relocate them back to the beach.

78
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 2: But these basically they were camping out and then they

79
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 2: would sneak in and try to eat raw fish. Motorsts

80
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: in the area have been asked to keep an eye

81
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 2: out for the penguins in case they tried to cross

82
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 2: the road for the sushi store a third time.

83
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I want to go to New Zealand.

84
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: Oh my god. This is also I mean, so they

85
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: weren't eating the sushi. It just was a cowinkie dink

86
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: that it was a raw fish place, which I'm assuming

87
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: raw fish is a penguin delicacy.

88
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: I think that they were attracted to the smell of

89
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 2: this cut sushi. I also, knowing how most people operate,

90
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 2: I'm sure somebody in that place tossed those penguins some fish.

91
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you toss a couple slices of salmon to a penguin.

92
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: If it was anywhere other than New Zealand, if there

93
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 1: was two penguins in the store, it would be the

94
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: reason you go to that place.

95
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's a great idea if it wasn't cruel to animals,

96
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: like if they voluntarily just want to live there and

97
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 2: nest there. I think this is a missed marketing opportunity.

98
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: I would go. I would rename it penguin Sushi, and

99
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: I would be like, waddle in and you get ten

100
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 2: percent off.

101
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: All of the waiters. All the waiters wear tuxedos. Great,

102
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: and then the penguins are never touched. They can just

103
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: come and go as they please. You're encouraged to feed them.

104
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: I'm in I'll I think that's a great idea. This

105
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: is a good idea.

106
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 2: By the way, if any restaurant tours need very very

107
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 2: small investors, Kurt and I are ready to open penguin sushi. Yeah.

108
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: I also have another bar idea I wanted to pitch

109
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: to you. It's called It's called vas. It's a SHOT's

110
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: only bar. All the bar tenders are dressed as nurses.

111
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: All the shots come in syringes. There you go. I

112
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 1: mean only play the cure.

113
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 2: All right, Oh my gosh, this is so well thought out.

114
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: Good for you. I would love this place.

115
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 2: I'd be like doctors orders and then I'd just wake

116
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 2: up under a pile of empty syringes.

117
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: All right, I got it. I got a good one

118
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: here for you. You ready, I would love a story from you.

119
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: This was sent in by Courtney Jones. Thank you Courtney Jones.

120
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: Love the uncanny case of the Jim Twins, two strained

121
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: twins who led identical lives.

122
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know this.

123
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: This is Oh, it is fascinating. So this is weirdly,

124
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: this is the first time we've had anything in Ripley's

125
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: Believe It or Not.

126
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 2: Wow.

127
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: You would think the Strange News podcast we would be

128
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: constantly on Ripley's Believe It or Not. But we're not right.

129
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: And this is by Chris little Child, the smallest of

130
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: the Child's.

131
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 2: Yes, the Jim twins.

132
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: Of Ohio were reunited at a aged thirty nine after

133
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: being separated at birth. When they got to talking, they

134
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: found out that they had lived identical lives. Wow, right

135
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: here it is. These guys are to skip ahead. They're

136
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: born in nineteen forty and only three weeks old their

137
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: adoptive parents. They were adopted. They were raised forty miles

138
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: apart from each other. Yes, both of their parents. Both

139
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: of their adoptive parents named them James. Both of them

140
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: went by Jim. They both had a dog childhood dog

141
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: named toy Okay. As school children, both had proclivity for

142
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: math and woodworking. But no great shakes its spelling right

143
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: here it is. Both Jim's married twice. The first time

144
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: they both married women named Linda. When this didn't work out,

145
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: they divorced, and they met and went on to marry

146
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: women named Betty. Both Jim Lewis and Jim Springer had

147
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: a son, and I'm sure you saw this coming. Both

148
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: gave their boy the same name, James Allen.

149
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: Well, my mind is honestly blown. This isn't like hamming

150
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 2: it up for podcasts. Blown. That is so insane.

151
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: Oh when it doesn't stop there, Well, Jim's were heavy smokers,

152
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: both drove the exact same car, and both had similar

153
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: jobs in security. Jim Lewis was a security guard while

154
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: Jim Springer was a deputy sheriff. They even took vacations

155
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: at the same Florida beach. Neither man knew any of

156
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: these impossible facts about their brother until Lewis, aged thirty seven,

157
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 1: decided to try and get in contact with his twin

158
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy seven. He succeeded in finding contact details

159
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: through an Ohio courthouse. Yeah, so they and they've been

160
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: part of all these like scientific studies about like nurture

161
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: versus nature. But yeah, I mean, like I guess so

162
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: that is I mean, that's so insane.

163
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 2: I oh my god, like that to me. Well, yeah,

164
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: obviously they were part of a scientific study. Quin's does

165
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 2: happen in life, but coincidence doesn't. Like if they had

166
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 2: both been named James, that's fine. Around the same time,

167
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 2: name has become very popular. I'm sure, Like you know

168
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 2: people that mess my name up Scott, They say Adam,

169
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 2: Chris or Steve. Those are the same exact names. Everybody

170
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 2: born in the early ladies is named that name. Johnny

171
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: Pemerton has that joke that Lauren, Rachel, Amandon, Meghan are

172
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: all the exact same name. That's true. So to be

173
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 2: a guy named James be called Jim and to Mary Linda,

174
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 2: that doesn't that's cool, that doesn't turn my head, that

175
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: doesn't blow my skirt up. Every other thing you said

176
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 2: is absolutely insane to me. The smoking one is whatever.

177
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 2: That feels like it could be genetic in a way too.

178
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 2: But right, wow, did they kiss? Did the kiss?

179
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: They should have made these sorry, but for the scientific study.

180
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: You guys gotta kiss. We gotta get this on camera.

181
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 2: Who knows what's going to happen. You guys got a kiss?

182
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is so, I mean, like it just keeps

183
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: getting stranger and stranger, and you know, so like I have,

184
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: I found out. It is always weird when you find out,

185
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: like you have a sibling, like cause I found out

186
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: that I had a secret brother and I don't have

187
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: I ever talked about this on the podcast.

188
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 2: No you did, and I don't think I don't think so.

189
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 2: I don't think you did. So.

190
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: My my mom when she was in uh, when she

191
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: was sixteen, she was very Catholic. Her parents, her mom

192
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: was really Catholic and she got pregnant, so they sent

193
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: But before we even get to that point, like I

194
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: never knew. I was raised essentially as an only child

195
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 1: my dad. I have brothers and sibisters through my dad,

196
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 1: but I was raised as an only child with my

197
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 1: mom step And then one night I'm with my brother.

198
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: We're drunk, and he's like, hey, so Dad told me

199
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: you have a brother. And I was like, wow, no

200
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: that's not true. I'm like, was dad drunk. He's like, yeah,

201
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: Dad was drunk, and so then I'm just like thinking

202
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: about it. But then it takes me literally maybe like

203
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: a year to get up the courage to like ask

204
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: my mom about it. We're at lunch, yeah, and you know,

205
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: it's kind of a weird thing to ask, especially if

206
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: it's never been brought up before. And we're at lunch

207
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: and I was like, hey, did you have a kid

208
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: before me? And she was like oh yeah. And I

209
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: was like, why didn't you ever tell me that I

210
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: have a brother and she was like, oh, well, I'd

211
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: never told anybody. It was this fucking Catholic thing where

212
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: it was like she got pregnant, she was sent off

213
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: to live with nuns in a maternity home, which was

214
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: a thing that happened before Roe versus Wade, and she

215
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: just lived there for six months and had the baby,

216
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: and then the baby was pretty much like taken away

217
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: from her and given up for adoption without really her consent.

218
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: And it's just like and then when she came back,

219
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 1: everybody pretended like it didn't happen. Everyone he pretended like

220
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: it didn't happen. And so then so I was like,

221
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: this is crazy, and I was like and I then

222
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: my mom died and I was like trying to find

223
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: because then it was like very difficult to find where,

224
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't know what this place was or

225
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: was it a convent, was it a nun like, where

226
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: was it? You know, did a ton of research, and

227
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 1: then I didn't even know, like cause like I called

228
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: her her brother, Her brother had no memory of her

229
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: going away for six months. I called her best friend,

230
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: her best friend in high school. She had no memory

231
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: of her leaving and not being around for six months.

232
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: Like everyone collectively just like blocked it out of their minds.

233
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: It was looking insane. It is crazy how often whenever

234
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: I tell this story, people are always like, that happened

235
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: to like my cousin or whatever. Like the amount of

236
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 1: like secrets that were just kept in like like in

237
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: the sixties when it was like, yeah, that's fine, we'll

238
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: just never talk about that, about the fact that, like

239
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: I'm not your mom.

240
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: So have you given up your hunt for.

241
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, I kept I kept hunting, kept hunting.

242
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: It was a very long it's a very long story,

243
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: but I will get around to the end, which is

244
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: basically I found him. I found like through this maternity home.

245
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: I was like interacting with I think a nun who

246
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: you know, they you know, people sued the Catholic Church

247
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: so that these records could be made available. I'd like

248
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: prove who I was and that my mom was dead

249
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: and all this sort of stuff. And she was like,

250
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: I found him, why don't you write him a letter.

251
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to contact him, make sure it's okay that

252
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: he wants to like be contacted by you. Yes, And

253
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, great, and so I like wrote

254
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 1: all this this huge letter and then it was like

255
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: a week later and she's like, I am so sorry,

256
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: this never happens.

257
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: Oh no.

258
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: I searched for the obituary there. That's the first thing

259
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: we always do we search for an obituary. There was

260
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: no obituary, and then I found his he has a

261
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: house in his name. Uh, and so I'm you know,

262
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: I just assumed if he has a house in his

263
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: name and there's been no obituary, then he's alive and

264
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: he died. He's he died probably five years before I

265
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: even found out he existed. Okay, but but then he

266
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: never had an obituary, and he's the house is still

267
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: in his name, So I have no idea. Like, I

268
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: got in touch with his widow were widow widow, and

269
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: it was like, you know, it was just kind of

270
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: an awkward email exchange. I don't know if she really

271
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: wanted to be involved. But then I got in touch

272
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: with my nieces, who were psyched to like know that

273
00:15:55,040 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: they had an ass and last year before quar happened,

274
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: they flew out here and they stayed in California for

275
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: like three days and we just like went and we

276
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: hung out. And they're fucking amazing. They're both like in

277
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: they're both college aged, they're both like twenty one and

278
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: twenty and they're awesome. They're such wonderful kids. And now

279
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: we're like buddies. I mean they're my nieces. But yeah,

280
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: like that's the nice thing that came out of it,

281
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: you know.

282
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 2: What a happy see. I think that's ideal. I mean, yes,

283
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 2: of course it would be to meet your half brother

284
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 2: or whatever. It would be very exciting. But also to

285
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 2: connect with great young nieces who were excited and pumped, fantastic.

286
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 2: I hope to meet them someday. That seems like a

287
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 2: great situation.

288
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and they are so cool because they it

289
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: is like there's a little like I can see my

290
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: mom a little bit in them, do you know what

291
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: I mean? Yes, And having the fact that my mom's gone,

292
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: it's it's very nice. It's just really really nice. So

293
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: if you, guys, if anybody out there is I was

294
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: so nervous about trying to find this person, right, the

295
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: nervousness keeps you from doing it for a really long time.

296
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: I would heartily encourage you to go find whoever is

297
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: a secret or secret relative of yours because it usually

298
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: works out or it doesn't or it doesn't or it

299
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 1: didn't work out here, but something else, yeah, something else.

300
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's chance, take a chance.

301
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 2: Guys, why not? I mean? I wrote an episode of

302
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 2: Workaholics called Gram's Demamps is dead. Adam Devine's character was

303
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 2: called Adam Demamp, and the idea was that the grandfather,

304
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 2: who was a complete loon, dies and he Initially it

305
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 2: was supposed to be that Adam's dad and Adam wanted

306
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 2: to give the wild grandfather the greatest sendoff in the

307
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 2: history of funerals, and that his new younger wife was

308
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 2: just trying to have like a church service and bury

309
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 2: them and they were like, Demamps, don't pray, we mut

310
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 2: and like just went crazy. So the reason we wrote

311
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: that episode is because Whatdy Harrelson loves Workaholics and he

312
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 2: reached out to Adam and was like, I'm a huge fan.

313
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,719
Speaker 2: It's Woody. I'd love to be on the show. So

314
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 2: we were like, let's make Adam's dad Woody Harrelson, And

315
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 2: so we write the whole entire episode and we said

316
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,199
Speaker 2: I wrote it so and then we send it to

317
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 2: Woody and he's like, nah, not this one for me.

318
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 2: I think he just wanted to do like a four

319
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 2: to twenty episode or something. So we went out to

320
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 2: Dany McBride because we were like, Dan McBride isn't that

321
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: much older than Adam, but similar vain you could believe

322
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 2: that they're related. And Danny was shooting. So then we

323
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 2: went to Jack Black. And Jack Black is the greatest sport.

324
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 2: He was so great on set and he's playing Adam's dad.

325
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 2: And then on set we're looking at it and we're like,

326
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 2: Jack Black is only like ten years older than Adam.

327
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 2: So we were like, well, how would this work? Was

328
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 2: he just did he have sex at ten years old?

329
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 2: In that Adam? So we did a rewrite at the

330
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 2: very end, which was that Adam's character was so stupid

331
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 2: that he believed his whole life that Jack Black's character

332
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 2: was his dad. And at the funeral when they release

333
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 2: his ashes, the grandfather's ashes from a pizza box being

334
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 2: pulled with a parachute behind a truck, Jack Black's character goes, uh,

335
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 2: I'm your older brother, I'm not your dad, and Adam's

336
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 2: character says something like, what, well, you were a really

337
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 2: shitty father, but god, I've always wanted an older brother.

338
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 2: And then they just start drinking together and I feel

339
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 2: like you're getting the real life version of like, you

340
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 2: know what, you didn't get that older brother, but now

341
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 2: you have nieces, and nieces are so much more fun.

342
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 2: That's like a better situation.

343
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: It really is. For a tragedy, it turned out pretty great.

344
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and there's a that's a teachable moment. I mean

345
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,880
Speaker 2: to tease one into the next break.

346
00:19:58,359 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

381
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 2: a teacher in the UK who gave me a nice

382
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 2: call and chatted and I said her all British men

383
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 2: named Paul and she said I don't teach any Paul,

384
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 2: so Emily, I'm an idiot, but thank you for calling.

385
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 2: And then Kurt. This one was a call I got

386
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: from another nice woman in the UK named Sam, who

387
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 2: does a podcast. I think it's over now, but it's

388
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 2: called Breaking Wind. What she and her friend did was once,

389
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 2: once every week they watched Breaking Dawn, part one of

390
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 2: the Twilight movie Soccer. They'd watch it and then they

391
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 2: talk about it. They watch it every week, they watch

392
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 2: it fifty two times, that movie God fifty two times

393
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 2: and then discuss it. It's called Breaking Wind. That sounds

394
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 2: like something you and I would do, and I told

395
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 2: Sam I would promote it. So if you are interested

396
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 2: in a totally independent and funny podcast, Breaking Wind, where

397
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:21,479
Speaker 2: two nice British women watch Breaking Dawn, part one of

398
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 2: the Twilight saga fifty two times in one ear in completion.

399
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: So, have you ever watched any movie fifty two times?

400
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 2: No, for sure. No, I've seen Jaws a lot. I've

401
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 2: seen the movie LaBamba a strange amount of times. And

402
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 2: then when you're a little kid, like you have children,

403
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 2: you know, like a little kid will watch Finding Nemo

404
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 2: twice a day for a year. But no, I don't

405
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 2: think so, I don't think.

406
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: So give me the story.

407
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 2: I would love to give you the story about a

408
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 2: very reasonable man who installed eleven speed bumps on the

409
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 2: street to his home. This was sent in by I'm

410
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 2: just gonna go for this sky suit sky suit Ko,

411
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: sky s u c a h yo Kyo, sky Sukyo.

412
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: How about that sky Sukyo sent this in. This is

413
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,199
Speaker 2: from the Straits Times. It was on a bunch of

414
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 2: other sites, but the Straits Times was the winner. A

415
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:37,959
Speaker 2: man who illegally installed eleven yeah yeah, yeah, who illegally

416
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 2: installed eleven asphalt speed bumps on the street next to

417
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: his house in Campung on Monday, has apologized for his actions.

418
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 2: Mohammed Roslam Haron Harun is forty years old. He admitted

419
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,919
Speaker 2: his mistakes of building so many speed bumps for a

420
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 2: distance of less and forty meters. Eleven speed bumps and

421
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 2: forty meters that's all. That's a football field, right, like

422
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: forty meters. No, it's like fifty. No, it's half a

423
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 2: football field. Yeah, oh my gosh. So he's basically putting

424
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 2: a speed bump every ten Oh, this guy's the greatest.

425
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 1: It's one hundred and twenty feet, so it's like, yeah,

426
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: a speed bump every ten feet.

427
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 2: Yes.

428
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 3: Oh.

429
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: Muhammad Roslam Harun admitted his mistakes of building so many

430
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 2: speed bumps for a distance of less than forty meters

431
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 2: and creating an unnecessary hassle for other residents to get

432
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 2: to the main road. Quote. Police officers came to see

433
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 2: me yesterday morning and asked me to remove all the

434
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 2: speed bumps that I install eleven. So I hired a

435
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 2: bulldozer operator to remove all the speed bumps on the street,

436
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 2: including the two original ones. So there are to why

437
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 2: did he do it? The case went viral on social

438
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 2: media a few days ago after a man uploaded a

439
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 2: picture of the quote new speed bumps on the street

440
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 2: heading to his house, which he claimed to have been

441
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 2: installed by his neighbor Roslam.

442
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: Who said he's blamed it on his neighbor for at first, No, this.

443
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: Was a neighbor blaming this guy. Yeah, this one dude

444
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 2: posted the picture of maybe all thirteen of them. So.

445
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 2: Muhammad said he installed the speed bumps because he was

446
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 2: often disturbed by the noise of vehicles using the street.

447
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 2: The noises from cars and motorcycles are disrupting my sleep.

448
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 2: I'm so stressed out and I have other health issues. Actually,

449
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to make speed humps, but the asphalt hardened

450
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 2: so quickly before they could be flattened, causing them to

451
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 2: become bumps. That made the rown inaccessible to all cars

452
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:02,959
Speaker 2: except four wheel drive vehicles, so because of the noise

453
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,199
Speaker 2: of traffic, he decided to slow them down and have

454
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:11,160
Speaker 2: them rev their engines eleven to thirteen times while scraping

455
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 2: the metal off the bottom of their car. Oh Mohammed,

456
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 2: I think you're the banana of the week, my friend.

457
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 1: That's the banana of the week. And he made that.

458
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: I love that. He made them so tall the cars

459
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 1: couldn't even get old of them. That's not even mentioned

460
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: until very deep in the article.

461
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 2: Oh God, Well, you know the Straights, the Straight Times.

462
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 2: The Straight Times aren't They're not the number one newspaper

463
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 2: in the world, but they get the job done. Eleven

464
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 2: speed bumps. It just to Oh god, it made me

465
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 2: so happy. I was crying when I first read this.

466
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 2: It's my kind of story.

467
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: Oh my god. When I was living in Yeah.

468
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 2: When I was living in Atlanta, when I was twenty one,

469
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 2: I moved to Atlanta to live with the girl's dating

470
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 2: at the time. Her mother passed away unexpected to live

471
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 2: a heart attack, and I moved into her family home

472
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 2: and helped her dad renovate the home and fix up

473
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 2: the basement. Because everybody decided they didn't want to live there, understandably,

474
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 2: so I moved in to basically get it ready for sale.

475
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 2: So I was there for about thirteen months. And while

476
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 2: I was there, I had a little Corolla, had my

477
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 2: little toytter Corolla. I drove down there and I was

478
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 2: working for Red Bull and waiting tables at a place

479
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 2: called Huey's that's no longer there on Peachtree, And so

480
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 2: it was a really stressful year. And to add to

481
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 2: that stress, I parked in front of the house on

482
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 2: the curb, big, big neighborhood, big sidewalks, and I started

483
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 2: to go to work in the mornings to wait brunch,

484
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 2: and I would find cracked eggs on my windshield, like

485
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 2: chicken eggs, not like a bird's nest above it or something.

486
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 2: And at first I just thought it was like teenagers

487
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 2: or something, and then it started to happen every single day,

488
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 2: every single morning, I would come out and have cracked

489
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: eggs on my.

490
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: Car and how many on two three?

491
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 2: Never more than that. And they would usually be like

492
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 2: on my windshield wipers, as if they cracked on the

493
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 2: window right above it. They were never really on the hood.

494
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: They were always on the windows. Okay, and so it

495
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 2: was super weird and there was no illegal parking or anything,

496
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 2: I mean in Atlanta, like in the middle of the city.

497
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: So we stayed up one night all night and sat

498
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: in my girlfriend's room and watched at the window and

499
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 2: her next door neighbor, who was like a drunk, like

500
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 2: a true alcoholic attorney. He had this very specific Ford

501
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 2: Explorer two door SUV, which is like the weirdest looking

502
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: car you can imagine, and we watched him walk out

503
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 2: in slippers and like basketball shorts and a sweatshirt, walk

504
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 2: over to my car, cracked two eggs on the windshield wipers,

505
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 2: and then walk back into his house. So I was livid.

506
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 2: I was like, this is insane. I mean, first of all,

507
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 2: I'm laughing hysterically because I can't believe what I'm seeing. Yeah,

508
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm gonna go say something to that guy,

509
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 2: and they were like, don't. And then my girlfriend's dad

510
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 2: and everybody was still very grieving. I mean, this is

511
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 2: like months after the mom had passed away. They were like,

512
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 2: we don't want any drama. We're selling this house. Don't

513
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 2: say anything. And I'm like, we gotta say something, and

514
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 2: they're like, Scottie please. So for about six months, this

515
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: guy cracked eggs on my car every single day or

516
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 2: every single night. I think he would go home and

517
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: just pound vodka out of like a smoothieking cup and

518
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 2: then get mad that my car was near his house

519
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 2: and then crack eggs on it. So we called the cops.

520
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 2: We filed a police report. He went over. The guy

521
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 2: was like, I didn't do that, and the cop was like, hey,

522
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: these guys are going through like they're grieving, like let's

523
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 2: leave them alone. And the guy's like, I'm very sorry.

524
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 2: They've always been great neighbors to me. I don't know

525
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 2: what you're talking about. It wasn't me. And then we

526
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 2: just recorded him. We've this guy just this guy just

527
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 2: got his kicks cracking eggs on my car. So I

528
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 2: never did shit. I never retaliated. I respected their wishes.

529
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 2: I ended up moving to New York where we met

530
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 2: about a year later. And then like six years later,

531
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 2: my friend Misty is like, hey, come down, we're hanging out.

532
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 2: I want you to meet my new husband, blah blah.

533
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 2: So I go down to Atlanta. We're hanging out. She

534
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 2: drives her husband of the airport while they're at the airport,

535
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 2: I go, you know what, I'm gonna swing by and

536
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 2: just see if that guy still lives there. And he did.

537
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 2: And I went to the publics and I bought five

538
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 2: dozen eggs, and I cracked five dozen eggs on his

539
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 2: windshield and one night and didn't tell Missy and then

540
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 2: just drove back and then flew back to New York

541
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 2: and one hundred percent retaliated. Didn't leave a note, didn't

542
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 2: leave anything, but like, at like nine pm on whatever night,

543
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 2: I just went over bottom, turned him upside down six

544
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 2: at a time on his windshield, and then just sped

545
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: slowly away into the night.

546
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: Oh, I love it. I love it so much. Was

547
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: it actually? Was it actually five Was it actually five dozen?

548
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: It was five dozen eggs.

549
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: And the only reason I didn't get more is I

550
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 2: was like, their ninety nine cents for medium whatever egg

551
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 2: and I'm like, this is going to be the funniest

552
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 2: amount of eggs. For some reason, I thought it was

553
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 2: just funnier. I thought sixty eggs was like the perfect

554
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 2: amount of eggs.

555
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: So, oh, it is the perfect amount of eggs.

556
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 2: I had to do it. It was the same car,

557
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 2: it was the same house I have. I'm sure the

558
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 2: Statue of Limitations is up on it. But screw that guy,

559
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 2: and god, it made me so happy.

560
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: Also have to admire his commitment to every single night,

561
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? Like there isn't at

562
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: that point. He can't feel rage. It can't be a

563
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: I'm so angry, I'm gonna do this thing. It's more

564
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: like I got to set a reminder for myself that

565
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: I need to go crack three eggs on this guy's

566
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: car windshield that I've never met.

567
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 2: Well, real alcoholics do that, and I'm sure people listening

568
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 2: here that have dated or married or whatever no alcoholics

569
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 2: related alcoholics. They get repetitive and they'll do this thing.

570
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: They'll tell you the same story and laugh at the

571
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 2: same part every single day. And I think part of

572
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 2: his it's what you're saying. I think his like drunken.

573
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 2: I think he would come up from work, start drinking,

574
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 2: and then at some point his brain would be like that,

575
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 2: that little toyota is too close to my property line.

576
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 2: And then his weird way of attacking was like just

577
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 2: gently like cracking them as if you were just dropping

578
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 2: them from five inches up. It was it was like

579
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 2: watching the Twilight Zone. Happen, and then I was emotionally

580
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: on it. They were they said, do not start drama,

581
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 2: and I said, I agree, but I got his ass back.

582
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 2: So enjoy your omelet buddy, love that.

583
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,080

Speaker 1: a support person only in New Zealand. Jack, sensing the

611
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: bad news, I decided I'd need the best support person available,

612
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 1: so I spent two hundred bucks to hire a clown.

613
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 1: The clown named Joe accompanied Jack to the meeting as

614
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: Jack's boss and an HR member let him know he

615
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: was going to be losing his job. It was Jack

00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: recounted to local radio station Magic Talk on Friday. I

617
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,439
Speaker 1: mean I did get fired, but apart from that, all

618
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: smooth running. Joe the clown made balloon animals as the

619
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: meeting played out, making a unicorn and a poodle to

620
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: help bolster Jack's spirits. He had to move very slow

621
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: because it was quite loud. Jack explained, so really we're

622
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: looking at a one hundred dollars per balloon boy. Surprisingly,

623
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: the firing seemingly went over well, with Jack saying that

624
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 1: his boss thought the clowns spiced up the meeting quote

625
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: they could see the humor side of it. Again, he

626
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: was two hundred dollars, so basically he was, I assume,

627
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: one of the best clowns in Auckland, So they were

628
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: getting sort of a free service of also getting the entertainment. Well, genius,

629
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: that's a great power move.

630
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 2: Oh, totally, of course. And also those kind of things

631
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 2: are so embarrassing. It's like, if he knew he was

632
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 2: getting fired, if they knew he's getting fired, it comes

633
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 2: a point where you just go, at this point in life,

634
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 2: just send me a text message and with an email

635
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 2: me the details. Like it feels so embarrassing to be like,

636
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 2: we're letting you go. But good for him him for

637
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 2: being like, I'm gonna take the power into the situation

638
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,760
Speaker 2: and I'm going to leave them wishing this personality had stayed.

639
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:15,919
Speaker 1: I have been fired. I've been fired from two jobs. Really, Yeah,

640
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 1: the first time was my first job. My first job

641
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 1: was at Jersey Mike Subs Great, not the original store,

642
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: but the second store, the second store they opened Wall,

643
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:30,840

644
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,239

00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 1: I was just tear. I was very bad at the job,

647
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 1: like I couldn't handle it. But my boss would just

648
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: my boss would smoke cigarettes and eat raw beef from

649
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: like the trays that they would make, like the Hamburger

650
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: patties out of, Oh god, and it was so disgusting.

651
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:00,879
Speaker 1: And I remember I tried to I'm a cigarette off

652
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: of him once because I smoked at that time. I

653
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 1: started smoking on his ten and he gave me such

654
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 1: a fucking lecture that to this day, I'm still angry

655
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: about it, like that that smoke. Like he fired me,

656
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, can I have a cigarette?

657
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: And he was just like yeah, he was furious that

658
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 1: I asked him for a cigarette. I was like, you

659
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: just fired me. I was just like, I don't you

660
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 1: ever ever start smoking. I wish I'd never started smoking.

661
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 1: I was just like, ugh, I was just like I

662
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: already smoked pal and you just fired me, so just

663
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 1: give me. Yeah, my mistake wasn't The reason I got

664
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: fired was I it was like I took an order

665
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,240
Speaker 1: on the phone for like it was like eighteen number

666
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: sevens and it was supposed to be like seven number

667
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 1: eighteen's or whatever. So they ended up making like eighteen

668
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 1: subs of the wrong kind and then the person comes

669
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: and then they have to scramble and make it eighteen

670
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 1: subs really quickly, and this person is furious, and so yeah,

671
00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: totally a firerable offense. Easy.

672
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 2: He is not really I mean, your kid. And also

673
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 2: if you were a good employee, it's like, I don't know,

674
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 2: you just send all the employees home with a couple

675
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 2: of free subs at night. How much did they really

676
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 2: lose twenty dollars in deli meat? Yeah, I hope when

677
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 2: he fired you, he was like get out of here,

678
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,439
Speaker 2: brown oler and never smoke. And then you're all sad.

679
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, come back here, and he just stuffed

680
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: a little raw meat in your in your breast pocket

00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 2: into you're a good kid.

682
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: You're just nibbling it in your meat at home. That's

683
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 1: this raw like grade d Hamburger meat. Yeah for the meatballs.

684
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 2: Oh that is so gross that I wonder if eating

685
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 2: raw meal and then smoking cigarette gives you a slight

686
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 2: barbecue sensation or also guys like that live to be

687
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 2: one hundred and two. When I first moved to New York,

688
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 2: there was like the oldest guy in New York was

689
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 2: like one hundred and something, and they were like, well,

690
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 2: what's your daily regiment? And he goes, I cooked two

691
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 2: pieces of white bread in pork fat. I used to

692
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 2: use lard, but it wasn't fat enough. And then you

693
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 2: could tell the journalists was like, but not for everyone.

694
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 2: And but yeah, that guy just got up in the

695
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,720
Speaker 2: morning and then fried two pastes of wonderbread in pork fat.

696
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:20,399
Speaker 2: And I'm like, he's a survivor, man, He's a survivor. God.

697
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 2: I've never got fired. I've never been fired from anything.

698
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 2: I've never been fired. My first job was at a

699
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 2: place called Bilbo Snowballs, and I never got paid, but

700
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 2: I didn't get fired. Uh.

701
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 1: The guy under snowballs with like with like snowball like

702
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,240
Speaker 1: ice right stuff with a flavor.

703
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, in Maryland and New Orleans they call them are

704
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 2: in Louisiana, and they come snowballs. Everybody else it's like

705
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 2: shaved ice or like snow cone, But in Maryland they've

706
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 2: turned it into an art form. You can get it

707
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 2: with squirts of chocolate, you can get it with splats

708
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 2: of creamy marshmallow. A lot of kids get it rainbow flavor.

709
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 2: I'd like Spearman or Skylight was always my favorite. But yeah,

710
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:07,359
Speaker 2: I worked like every daylight. Skylight's a light blue. It's

711
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 2: like a delicious light.

712
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: Oh.

713
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 2: I guess it's probably akin to like a blueberry that

714
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 2: is passed to you from the lips of Rihanna's Skylight

715
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 2: is the prints of snowball flavors. But yeah, I worked

716
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 2: the entire summer at thirteen off the books. I was

717
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 2: supposed to get five dollars an hour. I got zero

718
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 2: dollars an hour. I was there for about six weeks

719
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 2: before my dad was finally like, did they ever pay

720
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 2: you for that? I was like no, So then my

721
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 2: dad shut up. It was like you got to pay him,

722
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 2: and he's like, oh, I've been giving him free food

723
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 2: every day. And then I think he handed my dad

724
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 2: like fifty dollars bill and that was that. But I

725
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,240
Speaker 2: worked like an entire summer running a business, pretty busy,

726
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 2: very underage, and yeah, you know so I know, I

727
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 2: know the I know the how it feels to earn

728
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 2: it on dollar for two hundred and ninety hours of

729
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 2: work to make that sweet fifty dollars bill and a

730
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:13,919
Speaker 2: couple pits for five bucks too. Oh man, I have

Speaker 1: Lolo.

735
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 2: I'm sorry if I butchered the keller Her, but that's

736
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 2: what it looks like. It was written by the one

737
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 2: and only Yorun Steinbooch. Yarun you did it again, wife. Yeah,

739
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 2: this name is. I apologize. We're gonna say this writer

740
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 2: is the best in the biss. Wife reportedly stabs husband

741
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 2: after confusion over old picks of them having sex. Okay,

742
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 2: so this one's great. I actually do really love this story.

743
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 2: A Mexican woman into a rage and stabbed her husband

744
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 2: when she found what she thought were snaps of him

745
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 2: on his phone having sex with another woman who happened

746
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 2: to be her. When they were dating years ago. Oh

747
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,760
Speaker 2: Man police responded last week to reports of a domestic

748
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 2: dispute in the couple's home in Sonora, Mexico, where they

749
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,479
Speaker 2: discovered the man with multiple stab wounds in his arms

750
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 2: and legs. So she wasn't going for the kill shot.

751
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 2: I mean she still loves this guy. Yeah. His wife,

752
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 2: identified as Leonora, reportedly went ballistic when she found the

753
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 2: explicit photos on his phone showing him having sex with

754
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 2: who she thought was another woman. Without asking about the photos,

755
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 2: Leonora allegedly began attacking her shocked husband named Juan, who

756
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 2: finally wrestled the knife from her hands and asked what

757
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 2: set her off? I mean, what a nice guy I

758
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 2: would have got in my car just driven to Canada.

759
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 2: Wan then told Leonora that the woman she thought he

760
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,919
Speaker 2: had been cheating on was actually her years ago when

761
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 2: they were just dating. His wife apparently did not recognize

762
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 2: herself because she was younger, thinner, and had makeup on.

763
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 2: According to the report, Wan, who was expected to recover

764
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 2: from the injuries, told investigators he told h that he

765
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 2: told his jealous wife that he had recently found the

766
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 2: old photos in an old email and had transferred them

767
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 2: to his phone. Leonora was arrested and remains behind bars,

768
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 2: but charges are pending.

769
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa wait, so he did charge her. That's the

770
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:45,919
Speaker 1: craziest part.

771
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 2: I don't know lost on Mexico, but uh yeah, police recalled,

772
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,959
Speaker 2: so who knows. But yes, so she saw their old

773
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 2: sex pics and thought he was having him fair, and

774
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 2: before asking questions, just grabbed that knife and looked at

775
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 2: those arms and legs and just went for wands.

776
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: I love I love a woman of decisive action. Do

777
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

778
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 2: Too? Me too.

779
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: It just it's like, go for it. We'll figure it

780
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: out later. Yeah, it makes she makes a choice. She

781
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 1: makes a bold choice, She lives boldly. I hope she

782
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 1: gets out of jail.

783
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 2: Me too also had a good argument for not having

784
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 2: a gun in the home. A great argument for not

785
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 2: having a gun in the home. He Wan would be uh,

786
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: Wan would be in Swiss cheese if we if this

787
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 2: had happened. But yeah, I really love that idea. There's

788
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 2: a lot of steps. This also means she was either

789
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 2: using his phone or checking his phone. This also means

790
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:45,120
Speaker 2: that Wan still has that fire burning, and we know

791
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,680
Speaker 2: Leonora does we know that that spark is still in

792
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 2: that marriage. If you you just start stabbing, you got

793
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 2: love in your heart and a fire in your loins.

794
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: I it's still to this day, like I haven't had

795
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 1: anything suspicious on my phone, yeah, like in ten years,

796
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? Yes, of course, Like

797
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: I'm you know, and it still makes me so nervous

798
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:18,400
Speaker 1: when Lauren picks up my phone, Like the phone is

799
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 1: just such a it's just such you don't it's so

800
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 1: personal and I'm not doing anything bad, but I still

801
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,799
Speaker 1: have that like that, like oh no, And then I'm like,

802
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: it's fine, there's nothing, there's nothing but.

803
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 2: The relief of not having something Trump's it. I don't

804
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 2: know if I talked about this on the podcast before,

805
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 2: but I cheated once, uh in school?

806
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,320
Speaker 1: In what in college or high school?

807
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 2: In fourth grade? It was a spelling test. It was

808
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 2: a spelling test.

809
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 1: Oh you mean you cheated at school?

810
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 2: Oh?

811
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,319
Speaker 1: I thought you meant you cheated on a go.

812
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 2: No no no no no no no no no no

813
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 2: no no no no uh no no no that would

814
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 2: be how would speed? That would go against core principles.

815
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 2: I was in school and it might have been even

816
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 2: younger than fourth grade, and it was pluralizing words that

817
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 2: end with F. So maybe it was second grade, I

818
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 2: don't know, but it was like knife becomes knives, and

819
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:18,360
Speaker 2: wife becomes wives, and thief becomes thieves. And I didn't know,

820
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,279
Speaker 2: and I didn't study, and I got a ten because

821
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:29,359
Speaker 2: I got one right, and and the teacher knew that

822
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 2: I had cheated on the next test because I got

823
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 2: everything right. And so at the end of the day

824
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:38,360
Speaker 2: she was like, I have two identical tests. I know

825
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 2: two of you cheated. If you are that person, stay

826
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,360
Speaker 2: after class. And my heart fell out of my butt

827
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 2: and my stomach dropped, and I knew I was busted.

828
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 2: And I was a little kid, and she was a

829
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 2: former nun because I was a Catholic school kid. And

830
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 2: Miss Petree grilled me and was like, I'm not going

831
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,879
Speaker 2: to call your parents, yes, but I am giving you

832
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,439
Speaker 2: a zero and you are you need to prey on this.

833
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 2: And it devastated me. That feeling was, that guilt was

834
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 2: so bad. Then like two months later, I studied, I'd

835
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 2: done everything. I did it, and she goes, I know

836
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 2: two of you cheated on the test. I want you

837
00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:20,360
Speaker 2: to and I did it and I've been and the feeling,

838
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 2: the elation, the pure joy of not being the person

839
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 2: in the hot seat that was about to get reamed,

840
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 2: that was about to get in trouble. That feeling is

841
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 2: stuck with me my whole entire life. Where when you

842
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,719
Speaker 2: know that your wife can take your phone and you

843
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:43,839
Speaker 2: are scot free. Holy, that joy trumps any any of

844
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:48,280
Speaker 2: the joy of having a picture of uh something lascivious

845
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:48,879
Speaker 2: on your phone.

846
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,760
Speaker 1: Yes, I agreed, I agree.

847
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, best feeling in the world.

848
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 1: It is strange always how the nuns and the former nuns,

849
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:03,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, were the mean I've met, Like I remember

850
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 1: they would smack people's hands. This is like third grade,

851
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,560
Speaker 1: oh grade, and we would our hands would get smashed

852
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 1: with a ruler in nineteen in the nineteen eighties, Like

853
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 1: it's so fucking crazy. Yeah, it was just like a

854
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 1: nun who's just fucking angry all the time.

855
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 2: I agree.

856
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 1: What is what is this system that we're encouraging that

857
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 1: like this is a spiritual this supposed to be a

858
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:37,400
Speaker 1: spiritual person. They're just so pent up and angry taking

859
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: it out on third graders.

860
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get it, though, It's like and we're not.

861
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 2: I bet we have, I bet we have at least

862
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 2: one nun that listens to the podcast We're Not Coming Down.

863
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 1: There's oh no, my thousand of wonderful.

864
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:55,399
Speaker 2: Women that are nuns that do such terrible to work

865
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 2: and do such greatness and have the kind of souls

866
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 2: in the world. But the ones that and join the

867
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:10,759
Speaker 2: East Coast Archdiocese parochial schools are dangerous, violent people. And

868
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 2: when you watch documentaries like The Vow and you see

869
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 2: how people fall in line, and then you're just like,

870
00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 2: it's this way or no way at all. You go, yeah,

871
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 2: I think that one taught me a religion class in

872
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety five and when I rolled my eyes, she

873
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 2: threw something at me and I was like, oh, okay,

874
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,839
Speaker 2: that's a not the best person. I hit me up

875
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:38,120

956
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 1: goes and bans these things is my friend in college, Jamie,

957
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:37,040
Speaker 1: who is I've never spoken about him. Fascinating, man, absolutely fascinating.

958
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: Must be like a genius level brain that then was

959
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:47,000
Speaker 1: just applied to the crazy doing the craziest shit like

960
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,239
Speaker 1: he For a little while, he was just he was

961
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 1: doing comics and then selling them on the train and

962
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 1: that's how he made a living. But he would dress

963
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 1: up as a suit. He lived in a van, dressed

964
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:57,879
Speaker 1: up in a suit with a little briefcase, and then

965
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: in the briefcase he had his comic books that were

966
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,800
Speaker 1: like little like maybe like three inch by three inch there.

967
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 1: I think he sold him for a dollar each, like

968
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:09,520
Speaker 1: it would just type of things. No, but the straight

969
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 1: up comic books like one single panel comic books about cats,

970
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 1: and he would sell them on the street and in

971
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 1: the subway and totally made a living. And I was

972
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 1: just like, yes, like you've you've found exactly where you

973
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 1: can exist. He also did another thing where we went

974
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,120
Speaker 1: away on vacation, my girlfriend and I. We asked him

975
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 1: to watch our house or like stay in our apartment

976
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: because he lived in a van, and so he stayed

977
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:38,319
Speaker 1: in our apartment. And we had a cat, Molaya's cat,

978
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:42,399
Speaker 1: and uh, while we were gone. We came back seven

979
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:45,760
Speaker 1: days later from our vacation and he had just gotten

980
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 1: us another cat. Just went out without asking us and

981
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 1: was like, you have a I got your cat. I

982
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 1: just couldn't resist. This cot was here and this cat

983
00:56:56,560 --> 00:57:01,280
Speaker 1: hated our cat, and this cat come over the house constantly.

984
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:04,160
Speaker 1: So for a year we had a falling out over this.

985
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 1: Actually for a year we like had to like live

986
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 1: with our apartment cut. Whenever we would leave the house,

987
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:14,320
Speaker 1: we would have to put tarps down over the entire

988
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: living and then we would come back and the cat

989
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 1: would have peed on the tarp and then we would

990
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 1: like take the tarp and like dump it into the toilet.

991
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 2: And what a pleasant thing to come home to after

992
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:26,960
Speaker 2: the roll.

993
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,680
Speaker 1: But it was such a crazy thing to do to

994
00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 1: just get somebody a cat without asking them.

995
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:34,000
Speaker 2: That's huge.

996
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 1: And then anyway, so then we had a huge falling

997
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:37,800
Speaker 1: out over that because I was like, you can't. We

998
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 1: had to get rid of the cats. We had like

999
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 1: give the cat away to somebody else and He was like,

1000
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 1: you didn't try hard enough to make them like live together.

1001
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: And I was like, what are you talking about. I

1002
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,680
Speaker 1: can't tell them. You can't give me a cat against

1003
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 1: my will and then tell me I'm not taking care

1004
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 1: of it properly. As he had. He had a license

1005
00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 1: plate that was called that was doctor atsab dr Space ATSAB,

1006
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 1: which totally seems like he would get away with it

1007
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:11,240
Speaker 1: because it's just bastard backwards, which is like strange that

1008
00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 1: he wants a license plate that says.

1009
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 2: Bastard, Sure, go for it.

1010
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:18,560
Speaker 1: But so he wouldn't change it. So he got a

1011
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 1: letter in the mail saying, we have determined that your

1012
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 1: license plate is obscene. You have to change it. Put

1013
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: these licensing. They sent them license plates that he had

1014
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 1: to put on. Yeah, and he didn't. And he refused to,

1015
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 1: and either because of a parking issue or because of

1016
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:38,240
Speaker 1: this problem with a thing, they impounded his car and

1017
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,880
Speaker 1: then his car was impounded and it was four hundred

1018
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 1: dollars to get out. He didn't have four hundred dollars,

1019
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 1: so he he went and found where it was. He

1020
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 1: saw it. It had been like put on one of

1021
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 1: those elevators, you know how they have those like they

1022
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:54,920
Speaker 1: bring the car up just like maybe eight feet and

1023
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 1: they park another car underneath it. Right, Sure, so he

1024
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: found his car, he had another key to the car.

1025
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: He uh, he like made the plan and everything, and

1026
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:12,240
Speaker 1: then at night jumped the fence with pieces of wood

1027
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 1: and then put pieces of Oh my god, no, put

1028
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 1: piece of wood under the thing, and then tried to

1029
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 1: drive his car of it onto these pieces of wood. Yes,

1030
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 1: and it just you know, it just fell. Oh really,

1031
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: I think I think he got away though obviously yeah,

1032
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: he wasn't arrested for it, but the fact it's like

1033
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 1: how he is, like he would just be like this

1034
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:45,160
Speaker 1: is amazing. I'm going to solve it, and like I

1035
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 1: will do anything to solve this problem.

1036
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 2: Oh boy, all for a vanity plate. I hope he's

1037
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 2: doing well out there, just giving people animals that live

1038
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 2: for fifteen years that they don't want and just destroying

1039
00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 2: his own property over principles. We need those people. I

1040
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 2: saw one license plate once that was DMX sixty nine,

1041
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,200
Speaker 2: and I laughed so hard that somebody was like, you

1042
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:13,480
Speaker 2: know what, I'm going DMX sixty nine, and then California

1043
01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, okay, like that's gonna be it wasn't

1044
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 2: DMX driving the car either. It was that prius was

1045
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 2: not driven by DMX.

1046
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:27,919
Speaker 1: So he just loves he loves DMX and sixty nine

1047
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:28,800
Speaker 1: ing that much.

1048
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 2: And he's always wanted to sixty.

1049
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,200
Speaker 1: I think that's what it is. I think that's what

1050
01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 1: it is. That's what I think stupid about it. That

1051
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 1: it's like you need to choose one thing that you

1052
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 1: need to tell everyone, yeah, on the street about yourself

1053
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,120
Speaker 1: that I find inherently stupid.

1054
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:47,320
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to back you up on this because

1055
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:49,520
Speaker 2: I don't have any opinion on it, but I also

1056
01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:53,880
Speaker 2: feel like I've never seen one that has ever made

1057
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 2: me be like, great decision. You're doing great. But I

1058
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:58,560
Speaker 2: could say that about a lot of things.
