1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: Ridiculous crime. It's a production of I Heart Radio Elizabeth Dutton. Yes, Saren,

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: you know what's ridiculous. Yeah, I'll tell you. It's ridiculous

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: high healed crocs. Wait, is that real? I don't know.

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: Is that a thing? I had a dream last night

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: that I was someone was forcing me to wear high

6
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: healed crocs and they had like a chunky heel. Okay,

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 1: I was wondering it was a square heel or like

8
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: a stiletto. No, it was a square heel and they

9
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: were blue, and they had like an ankle strap. Thing

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: too interesting. So if that exists, it's ridiculous. Facts you're

11
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 1: dreaming about crocs is ridiculous. Okay, that's a good one.

12
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 1: But how about the story of a mysterious criminal who

13
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: nightly stocks the streets and avenues of the United Kingdom.

14
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: This madman or mad woman searches for victims, and when

15
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: one is found, they seize upon their target with criminal intent,

16
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: and when their dirty business is done, they leave behind

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: the unmistakable evidence of their attack. That sounds scary. Another

18
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: shaved cat. Yeah, so you're ready for the unsolved mystery

19
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: of the Great UK cat shaver. I am so ready.

20
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: This is Ridiculous Crime A podcast about absurd and outrageous capers,

21
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: heists and cons. It's always an I murder, free and ridiculous. Okay, Elizabeth,

22
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: I promised you a story of a cat shaver. Yes,

23
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: and now I'll deliver on that extremely ridiculous crime in

24
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: one second. But first, I think we need to establish

25
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: a little context for this story. So let's talk about

26
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't just jump right into cat shap No.

27
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: I mean I think that's been like understood things since

28
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: the beginning of time. You don't just rush into catch it.

29
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: So let me tell you about the furry fury of

30
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: cat lovers, specifically the cat lovers of the UK. Wait,

31
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: listen to me. Let me tell you you lived in

32
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: the UK. Could you tell me about the furry cat lovers? Well,

33
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: all I can say is that in Glasgow the cats

34
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: are enormous and it's awesome. What do you mean, there's

35
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: the biggest cat house cats I've ever seen in my life.

36
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: Is generally like, it's not just like main cones are big,

37
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: but they're just and is it the diet. I don't know,

38
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, but you're just like I keep to myself,

39
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: there there was one that lived across the back clothes

40
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: or whatever from me, and I would look out the

41
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: window and I always try and lure it over to

42
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: to visit. And it had big stranger danger vibes every

43
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: time I did that, and would look at me terrified

44
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: and run away, and I was like, no, I just

45
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: want to see this gigantic cat in person. But then

46
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: you'd walk around and see all these other gigantic cats.

47
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 1: Take a cat new you had dog energy? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

48
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 1: But you know what, every dog I've had is loved cat.

49
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: That's true. That's very true. And I say this like

50
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: I've known every dog you've ever known, but you have

51
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: like a scrap book. Yeah, I come times. You know,

52
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: I talked to your mother. I'm like, okay, so tell

53
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: me about Wallace. Was he go with cats? Well, this

54
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: was the best dog ever. No offense to Elliott, but yeah,

55
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: well Elliott's he can't hear anymore, so it just passed. Okay.

56
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: So imagine those big giant cats of Scotland and imagine

57
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: the people who loved them and very passionately. Now imagine

58
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: a woman in the UK. You had to have police

59
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: protection from the death threats that she received after she

60
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: threw someone's cat in the trash. Wait she did? I said,

61
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: she threw someone's cat in the trash. No, no, I know,

62
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: but it's it's it's quite the headline. But you have

63
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,839
Speaker 1: to understand the cat was unharmed. Okay. So and also

64
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: this story is far more nuance than a lady threw

65
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: a cat in the trash. I bet, yeah, you know kinda.

66
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: It's still okay, I want you to picture it. Yes,

67
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: it's two thousand tent. You were in the English city

68
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: of Coventry in the West Midlands area of the United Kingdom.

69
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: Have you ever been there? Okay? The city is historically

70
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: part of an area called Warwickshire, about nineteen miles southeast

71
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: of Birmingham. It's a Saturday evening time around a p m.

72
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: You notice a woman out alone. She's a forty five

73
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: year old bank worker named Mary Bale. She's just out

74
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: for an evening stroll, a walk, a constitutional if you will.

75
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: Now you notice her stop a moment she bends low

76
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: to pet a little four year old cat. She's like

77
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: friendly with the cat. You're like, these two know each other.

78
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: Mary Bale is pass this cat many times on this walk.

79
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: She's a neighborhood gal and when she bends low to

80
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: pet the cat, she gently nuzzles it. The cat comes

81
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: over and it's like very friendly with her, and they're

82
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: just having their little moment. And then you notice that

83
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: she picks up the cat by the scruff of its

84
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: neck would exactly just like a mama would. I don't

85
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: know where, I don't like where this is, carries it

86
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: over to a street side trash band it's the lid,

87
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: dumps the cat in and walks away the lid. After yeah, second,

88
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: that goes there and I'm out. Now all of this

89
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: is recorded by you a CCTV camera. I'm a CCTV

90
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: guess you are the all seeing eye nothing that you are,

91
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: the unblinking eye that misses nothing on that street. Now,

92
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: what you don't see is that fifteen hours later, the

93
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: cat's owner, a Mr. Darryl Man twenty six, he discovers

94
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: his missing cat, Lola. It's cat's fine. Remember I told

95
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: you I was fine. Cat was in the bin. But

96
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: they've been gone all day long. They had no idea.

97
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: They're like, uh, but they heard when they come home

98
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: some noise I'm crying sounds. So what does that sounds like?

99
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: A cat in distress to go over to the trash

100
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: and look, there's Lola. So they've never known that Lola

101
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: was gone until they discovered the trash bin. Well, they

102
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: obviously didn't care very much for Lola, but they didn't

103
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: even notice she's gone, I'm telling you. They're like it,

104
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: how could the cat get in a trash bin? The wife, Stephanie,

105
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 1: she's like, I don't know about this, honey. I'm thinking

106
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 1: as one of our you know, untrust really neighbors, you know,

107
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: dudes like well, you know, we put that cct CCTV

108
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: camera up you and uh, I bet it got some footage.

109
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: So I live in their home. I'm not like one

110
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: of the UK government's CCTV camera. You are a private

111
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: CCTV camera that they have put outside because they've had

112
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,919
Speaker 1: problems in the past. So they check the footage and

113
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,599
Speaker 1: what do they see. Well, they see what you saw.

114
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: A woman come along and pet their cat, pick it

115
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: up and toss it in the trash. Now the man's

116
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: are a gas. They're like, how dare someone do this

117
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: to Lola? They're like, like, you know, who would do

118
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: such a thing. Stephanie is personally the most offended, right

119
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: She's like, this is just so I can't trust the

120
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: people we live near. This is so terrible. She was

121
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: shaken to the core completely her faith in human I

122
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: wonder if that was the worst thing that ever happened

123
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: in her life. I think, um, so the man's decide, Okay,

124
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: we need to be able to feel safe, both for

125
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: ourselves and for our cat to solve this mystery. So

126
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: they go and they take the footage and CCTV they

127
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: loaded on YouTube, and they put it up on a

128
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: Facebook page. And the Facebook page is called help Find

129
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: the woman who put my cat in the bin. I

130
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: shouldn't laugh. I'm so sorry. It's all right, I I had.

131
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: I was laughing the whole time I was researching this,

132
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: So just I'll be honest to the video on the

00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: busting out every racist Karen that ever came along. They

139
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,000

00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: Mary Bale has no idea any of this is going on,

154
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: because Mary Bale is just chill like that, and she

155
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: gets a call from her boss at the bank and

156
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, yes, I'm getting ready to pop into

157
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: the office and he's like, oh cool, cool, Yeah, well

158
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: you know you don't really work here anymore, so you

159
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: don't need to do that. So she's out. She has

160
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: to resign from her job with twenty seven years. This

161
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: is the first indicator to her that something horrible is

162
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: going wrong in her life. I feel like four Chan

163
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,719
Speaker 1: would have supported her to have written this on my own.

164
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: We have to understand though, that this is like someone

165
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: putting a cat in the trash. I think can unite

166
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: people across the wild. It's one of th things like

167
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: Dolly Parton, everyone can agree on. So Facebook. Now, meanwhile,

168
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: I was starting to like kick into gear. So there

169
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: is a new Facebook group that the Man's did not

170
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: put up, called death to Marry Bail. So now this

171
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: is on Monday. On Tuesday, the British Press descents. They're like, oh,

172
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: look a story. Oh my god. So they come out

173
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: there with a bunch of rusty knives and spoons and

174
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: start setting up to work. They're like, oh, we can

175
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 1: make a meal of this, and uh, they make their

176
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: your traditional you know, tabloid pigs breakfast of it. And

177
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: when I say the British Press, I don't mean like

178
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: the Great Press. It's mostly the Sun, the Mirror, the

179
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: Daily Mail. But then also it's the BBC one, BBC two,

180
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: Sky TV News and of course America's Fox News gets

181
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: in on the scrumb they're like, oh, fresh blood. Anyway,

182
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: the man's they're like starting to feel bad about what

183
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,479
Speaker 1: they have done. They're like, oh, dearie. So they realized

184
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: that they really, you know, put Mary Bale in it.

185
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: Because they're getting cameras at their place, they can only

186
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: imagine what's happening for old Mary Bale. So news cameras

187
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: are descending on them. They're going, now, what happened? How

188
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: terrible is this cat in the trash ordeal you went through?

189
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 1: And they're like, oh, bother, it was terrible. No. Actually,

190
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: they're very um, not like uppercrust tory people, and I

191
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: don't want to, like, you know, class shame them. So

192
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: I'm not going to really make fun of their accents

193
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: or any of what they said. But their quotes are interesting. Well,

194
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: I'll do you this one. Are you gonna give me

195
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: a quote? I'll give you one quote. So Darryl Man

196
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: is asked about like how bad things are, and he's like,

197
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: you know, basically admitting that, like the cat is a nightcat.

198
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: They didn't know that Lola was out. They only noticed

199
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: that they pulled back from like you know, popping down

200
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: to the store and then they heard the screams, and

201
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: he's like, he says, I thought she might have gotten

202
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: in herself. She's not the brightest cat, right, you know

203
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: that honestly would have been my first read on it,

204
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: like that the cat was trying to get into the

205
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: can and exactly it seems like a lot. Oh yeah,

206
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: raccoons are kind of done. But anyway, I'm not gonna

207
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: do the raccoon people coming after me. So so then

208
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: this my dude, Darryl Man, he's, uh, you know, he

209
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: is like trying to kind of like shift not the

210
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: blame away from what she did, but like, you know,

211
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: it could have been. But then he realized that's oh wait, wait,

212
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 1: the news people will leave and I won't be able

213
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: to like you know, get all this like attention. So

214
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: he's like reverts back to the rhetorical position he had before,

215
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: which is, I know people are angry. We was angry

216
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: at the time. So now he's back on the side

217
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: of everyone who's got their pitchforks at right. We was, yeah,

218
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: So you know, this is why I'm not going to

219
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: go too many of us quotes. It seems unfair to

220
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: the man. So I'm just a grammatical jerk. Yeah, I

221
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: know you are. I know the man's. To their credit,

222
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 1: they do try to like kind of quell this fast

223
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 1: spiraling internet storm that is surrounding poor Mary Bale. Right,

224
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: So Stephanie Man, she goes and talks to the news cameras,

225
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,959
Speaker 1: talks to the viewers and appeals to their good conscience

226
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: and I quote, yeah, I can't believe the reaction to

227
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: the story. I only posted on Facebook because I wanted

228
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: to see who she was. Now the police know who

229
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: she is. I think people should leave it to them

230
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: and the r S, b c A and not take

231
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 1: masters in their own hands. Whatever she's done, I don't

232
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 1: like it, but I don't want it to get hurt.

233
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 1: It needs to be dealt with properly, not by people

234
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: getting aggressive with her. That's really good, right, I mean

235
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: it's like pretty much fwallless. It was like me and

236
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: Dick Van Dyke are your go too for British accent. Okay,

237
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: here's the thing. She says, she posted on Facebook just

238
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: because she wanted to see who it was, just you know,

239
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: just teasing testing, and then she finds out and just

240
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: walks away from that. Come on, wash your hands, wash

241
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: your hands and She's like, whatever she's doing, Mary needs

242
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: to know, not Mary, what's her name? Se she needs

243
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: to man up pun intended and just admit what it

244
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: like legitimately when she posted it and she just wanted

245
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: to find out who it was, then what was she

246
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: going to do? The truth? Like, what was the whole

247
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: point of finding out? It's going to go to you

248
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: think style, however in Glass just up what you drinking? Mary?

249
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: They were going to put on some cap at track

250
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,679
Speaker 1: suits and just head over there and bring a couple

251
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: of dudes they know no future, I don't know. So

252
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 1: now if you can imagine, so the press is descended

253
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: on the man's Meanwhile, over at Mary Bale's place back

254
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: at the ranch, she is perpetually surrounded by angry cat lovers,

255
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: animal defenders and the British press. Quite the mix, right. Yeah,

256
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: Now she's good because she no longer has to go

257
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: to work, so she didn't really have to leave her house,

258
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 1: so that that's going for her. But it's bad because

259
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: at the same time she needs a police escort to

260
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 1: go visit her ailing father in the hospital, So like

261
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: stuff is getting real for her. At one point, Facebook's

262
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: like you nobody feel bad for this girl. You know,

263
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: so let's let's do what we can and there you go.

264
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: And a Facebook spokeswan tells the press we can't comment

265
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 1: on individual cases for privacy reasons, but I can tell

266
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: you that one group entitled death to Mary Bale has

267
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: been removed today. One group, just one group, like we

268
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: took out the word, but the other death to fill

269
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: in the blank. I believe them. Yeah, we mean, what

270
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: are we doing here? You know, come on, we got

271
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: a business to run. We can't be looking at for

272
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: every Mary Baiale, Tom Dick and Harry can't. You gotta

273
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: do this little work to get to the big work

274
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: of genocide exactly you step by step don Now. Eventually,

275
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: due to public outcry Mary Bale she gets arrested. Oh yeah,

276
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: because they're like, look, you can't be just abusing catch. Yeah,

277
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: it's out there England. I just like saying that anyway.

278
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: So Mary Bale, she gets arrested. She has to go

279
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: before a judge to face justice. Now do you think

280
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: this is gonna go well for old Mary? No, it did,

281
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: we wouldn't be talking about it. Well, we'll be back

282
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: after a short break and I'll tell you all about

283
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: how Mary Bale gets out of jail. So after Death

284
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: to Mary Bale fails on its merits and facebooks like, look,

285
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: we gotta like look out for this lady. And she

286
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: gets arrested and she goes before the judge. Luckily, she

287
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: finally now has someone who understands what has occurred for

288
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: poor Mary Bale. She has Judge Caroline Gouldborn. Now Judge

289
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: Caroline Goldborn is like, you know, human about this, she says, look,

290
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: not feeling about it. Not feeling about it. She's all

291
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: rare justice. This one's just dressed like a kitty cat.

292
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: She's licking her hands and cleaning herself in court. So

293
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: Judge Caroline Goldborn and she's like, look, Mary, you're guilty

294
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: of animal endangerment. There's no doubt about that. The camera

295
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: everything that. We can't even contest this. But you've really

296
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: gone through the ring or my lady, the media interest

297
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: has just been crushing on you. You've been vilified everywhere.

298
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to take that into account when we talk

299
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: about justice. She's like, look, I understand that when you

300
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: were walking you were going basically to a hospital. So

301
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: you're a little bit out of sorts, right, you know,

302
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: like you know, she's walking for her mother, her place,

303
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: for her mother's place, over to the hospital to see

304
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: her dad who's ailing. Remember the dad's ailing. So she's

305
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: got like she needed police protection to go see him.

306
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: So the judge takes us into account and it's like, look,

307
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: the cat wasn't even injured, so I'm not going to

308
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: throw the book at you. So Mary Vale in court,

309
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: she finally speaks to this. She's like, look, people, it's

310
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: a cat. Now she didn't say that, She's like, I

311
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: cannot explain why I did this. He was completely out

312
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: of cact and I certainly did not intend to cause

313
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: any distress to Lull or her owners. It was a

314
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: split second of miss judge, and it has gotten completely

315
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: out of control. I wish to reiterate that I'm profoundly

316
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: sorry for my actions and wish to resolve this matter

317
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 1: to everyone's satisfaction as soon as possible. So you know,

318
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: it's pretty decent. Now, she did lose her job of

319
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: twenty seven years, she has to pay off small fine,

320
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: and she was banned from owning a pet for five years.

321
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 1: Oh did she already have a pet? Did they confiscate

322
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 1: not take a pet from her? They don't you try

323
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: going into a pet star Mary. Yeah. Now, the novelist

324
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: M J. Highland, she wrote a highly steamed essay included

325
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: in the Best of Australia's Essays at twenty eleven, and

326
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: it was called the Trial of Mary Baale. She was

327
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: so moved by what happened to this woman that she

328
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: writes about her. Right, And I thought there's two points

329
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: she made an essay that were worth saying. And I quote, yea,

330
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: if Mary had been a teenager, a welfare sponger or

331
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: allowed with a crack abbot, there being no story. This

332
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: is a professional, intelligent, middle aged, middle class woman surprising

333
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: the hell out of us. Oh that's kind of a

334
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: loaded statement, right, So basically, like the whole thing is,

335
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: everybody goes crazy over this cat being tossed in the trash,

336
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: which admittedly is bad, don't get me wrong, but like

337
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 1: calling for her death seems outsized, right, and we all

338
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: know how that goes these days, like this, we we

339
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: now live in the wake of those online times because

340
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: like at that time, BuzzFeed published her home address and

341
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: her phone number. That's what I mean, Like things were

342
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: a little bit different, you know, Yeah, just a little

343
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: bit so like, the other thing that's wild to me

344
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: about this story is this all happened in like a town.

345
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: This Coventry town is right near Birmingham. I don't know

346
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: much about England, don't know about you, but the only

347
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,399
Speaker 1: thing I know about burning him is Peaky Blinders is

348
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: from there, right, So I'm picturing like Peaky Blinders and

349
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: all these people getting mad about a cat in the trash,

350
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: and I know this is bad, but I was like, dude,

351
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,360
Speaker 1: this is progress England. You used to have to deal

352
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: with like knifings and thievings and murders and all sorts

353
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: of prostitution and gambling. Us is now you're just like, oh,

354
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: we got a cat in the trash and getting all

355
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: insane about it. This is progress. Be happy, no not.

356
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: I admittedly have a different view of jurisprudence. Well you

357
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 1: know that Peaky Blanders isn't a documentary what it's like

358
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: live p D. But I just think it's real, absolutely

359
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: real thing. I was just imagining these are like a

360
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: little bit more like working class people with problems that

361
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: were how far we from Birmingham? Was it a long way? Like?

362
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 1: Think about it this way. I'm gonna tell you Okay,

363
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: so think about it. If you're there in the UK,

364
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 1: twenty miles is a pretty good distance from one place

365
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: to the next, from one town to the next. And

366
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: where we are, we're in California, We're in an urban area,

367
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: and so you know, you drive twenty miles, you've gone

368
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: considered like in the Bay Area, if I'm in the

369
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: East Bay, which I am, if I drive twenty miles,

370
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: I've gone through nothing but solid towns one after another.

371
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: And so if you take like this the whole size

372
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: of California and you superimpose that over the British Isle,

373
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 1: it's the same. It's cow porn is the same length.

374
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: And so if I'm driving twenty miles from Stockton out

375
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:09,159
Speaker 1: into that, you know, a good sized city, I'm going

376
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 1: to get to a tiny town that's nothing. I see

377
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: your point. Okay, fair enough, fair enough, But I do

378
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: like the idea of it's as if they have like

379
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 1: a secret in the in the in England that you know,

380
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: they want everyone else to think that it's so rough

381
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: and gritty, and in truth it is just cat binnings,

382
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: and exactly people are getting insane about like pet crimes.

383
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: It's like, all right, I wish, right, I think we

384
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: all wish, we wish that that was the peak of

385
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: of bad behavior. Okay, now, as I promised, you, ready

386
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: for the mystery of the Great UK cat Shaver. Oh

387
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: that's right, we were talking about yeah, so, yeah, I

388
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: just wanted to set you up for the like how

389
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: wild England is about cats before we get into an

390
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: even crazier cat crime. Yeah. Well they say in Scotland

391
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: that men there are two times in their lives that

392
00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: men cry when their dog dies and when their football

393
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 1: team loses. I think I'm remembering that correctly. Sounds accurate,

394
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: because so I want you now to jump six years

395
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: forward from two thous right there, Okay, you're still in

396
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: England and you open up the newspaper and you see

397
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 1: there is a worrying new crime trend underway. Quote serial

398
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: cat clippers feared to be on the loose in the city,

399
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: with several fee lines coming home shaved. Yes, so it

400
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 1: starts with basically local news reports coming and talking to

401
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 1: there is a wave of cat crime. So pet owner

402
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: Charlene Free, year old mother of three, she was disturbed

403
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 1: when her cat came home with a fresh buzz cut.

404
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: This was this is like just shocking to her and

405
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 1: her imagine her three children. So now over a few

406
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: these few weeks, there are six reports of shaved cats

407
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: showing up at various homes in the area. So of

408
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: course after the six cats, they're like, well, we need

409
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: a name for this. So they come up with the

410
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 1: Plymouth cat shaver. Oh, that's very utilitarian name. Yeah, it's

411
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,399
Speaker 1: kind of you know whatever. And Plymouth as in like

412
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: the Pilgrim's Plymouth, you know, like that. So Plymouth. This

413
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 1: is like on southeast England. So now we're like further

414
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: south to the left. Okay, so southeast, southwest, right, southwest?

415
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: What did I say? Southeast? Whatever? Why are you listening southwest?

416
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: I'm here to keep you honest. I like that, all right,

417
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 1: keep me honesting this one, Elizabeth, you had to shave

418
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: a cat, how would you do it? How would you

419
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: shave a cat? How would I shave a cat? Well?

420
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 1: How would you? And it's not a cat own? Um, yeah,

421
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 1: let's go with it's not a cat ranger cat. Yes,

422
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to kind of course into this shaving first.

423
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 1: I make friends with this cat. It's going to take

424
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,719
Speaker 1: a while luring it in. Oh, I'm going to like

425
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: supply it with some treats, maybe open up a cana

426
00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: tuna and be like, hey, it's cool, just come on over.

427
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 1: We're just I'm just sitting here chilling, hand and out tuna.

428
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: And then I'm gonna get it to where the cat

429
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 1: is into it. So then I get the cat like

430
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: sitting on my lap. I'm petting it, it's purring, and

431
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 1: then I act like, all right, I gotta get out

432
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: of here, see you. So I leave him wanting more,

433
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 1: and the cats like where's that cool lady? The two

434
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: that smells like tuna, Like, you know, I'm busy right now.

435
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: And then so the cats looking for me, and I'm

436
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: kind of ghosting the cat a little bit. At first

437
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, no, it's cool. Here I am. And

438
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 1: then one time, when I get it nice and sleepy,

439
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: I get the clippers that I have for my dog,

440
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: who wouldn't be involved in this. He's innocent. But the

441
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: clippers are specifically for dogs. Are really quiet. Oh I

442
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 1: didn't know that. Yeah, So they're like they're they're rechargeable.

443
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: They don't plug into the wall. The ones that plug

444
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: into the wall are crazy loud, so these are quiet.

445
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: So I turn it on, see if the cat wakes up,

446
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: and then I just do it as fast as I

447
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: possibly can, just if I'm just doing like a little section.

448
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: If I wanted to do the whole cat, it would

449
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: have to be, you know, a more gentle I'd light

450
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 1: some candles on some n ya and just like and

451
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: then I say, cat, it's okay, step into the vibe.

452
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: I'm really I don't like that. I'm thinking about this,

453
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: but you would go undercover with the cat. You would

454
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: basically have an undercover relationship or in the cat's trust,

455
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: and then you get them with a you know, they

456
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: have those things for if you want to wash cats.

457
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: I do not know about this now where it's like

458
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: a sling and you you put their their their legs

459
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: four hole in the bottom and then you hold it

460
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: up and they're supposed to and cats go for this

461
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like a cat at all. I've seen them

462
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: and and like you can put them in that I

463
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: guess to clip their nails because they don't like that either. Interesting.

464
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: I knew someone who got one because they thought like

465
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: the cat had a bunch of crud on it from

466
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: going in the like the garbage or something they had

467
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 1: to watch the cat and they didn't know how to

468
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, maybe it got tossed the bin and

469
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: then they just gave up. They bought the sling, but

470
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,199
Speaker 1: we're afraid to use it. Just I bet that's the

471
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 1: first time you're going into washing cat and you're coming

472
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 1: in with all sorts of weird extra Yeah, I'm imagine

473
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 1: that's not going to play well. Yeah. Well, now I

474
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: didn't grow up with cat, so I don't know anything

475
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: about like how one would she have a cat? I

476
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,439
Speaker 1: don't know, Like you know, can you just give it

477
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: like a little bit of tuna? Like I liked your idea.

478
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: That makes total sense to me. I always wanted to.

479
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: We had this cat named Eric who was big and sassy,

480
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: big sassy Eric, super dramatic. He was well if you

481
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 1: were like pulling into the driveway and you just came

482
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: to stop, he'd run out in front of the car

483
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: with a terrified look on his face, like, don't hit me, Like, Eric,

484
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: I just I put the car in park, come on,

485
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: Or like if you're cutting a branch in a tree,

486
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: he comes out of nowhere and stands under it. Like

487
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 1: so do you think that Eric would throw himself into shad.

488
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: Eric was enormous. He's like a pound cat. It was

489
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: maybe like a fun target for the cat shaver too. Well, no,

490
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: because I was always just wondering underneath that fur, does

491
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: he have cellulate? And I was like, if such an American,

492
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: if I shave this cat, it's going to be so grotesque,

493
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,719
Speaker 1: and it's so interesting to see what he looks like

494
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 1: under the fur. And I would try and convince my family,

495
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: hate you need to shave this cat, shave Eric, and

496
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 1: he's like, no, he'll never get over. I'm like, no, no, no,

497
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: you you gotta shave cats when they get injured or whatever.

498
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 1: And they, yeah, let's do it. Birds, do it, beast,

499
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: do it shave a cat? Baby? No one to this day,

500
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 1: I will you know Eric is no longer with us

501
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 1: power chance, No, no, did you let your family for

502
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,159
Speaker 1: here about it? Yeah? And I threatened to shave my

503
00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: mom's cat hanging on here. Moved on to the next tickle,

504
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 1: tickle tickle. She's kind of a big gal too, so

505
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious what's going on, what's going on

506
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: that undercarriage exactly? Well, you would be probably happy to

507
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: know that the Plymouth catch shaver was not the only

508
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: amateur cat barber working in the England area at the time.

509
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: So in the nearby villages of the cots Waltz there

510
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: are reports of a cat shaver who has struck ten

511
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: different feelines. Now, the victims in this cat crime wave

512
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: had names like Tippy, Baby, Treacle, and I imagine that

513
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: the names like Sprinkles and Mr for Percival winklepoof the four.

514
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: So now, when Tippy, who is a tortoise shield patterned cat,

515
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: returned home twice in two weeks with a fresh shaved job,

516
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: her owner's holidays were ruined, poor Mrs Lisetta Bray. So

517
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,360
Speaker 1: she's like, you know, this is her life, basically said

518
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: her Christmas was ruined the year before after her cat

519
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,399
Speaker 1: Tippy came home with a fresh trim job. So then

520
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: Tippy comes back two weeks later, more shaved jobs. So

521
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, tearing me and the new year too, right,

522
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: So you know, she was convinced that the tacker had

523
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 1: used electric razor. Right, So they're like that's probably the

524
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: only way you could. They start getting into it. They're like,

525
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 1: now the neighbors are like, well, what do you think

526
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 1: it was. I think it was a clipper. Maybe it

527
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: was battery power. Having thought about it myself, and I

528
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: think it has to be a clipper, right so, or

529
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 1: straight razor that blinders exactly what the hat? Maybe they

530
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 1: do they give it the peaky blinders haircut. Hey, that's

531
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: the best haircut there is. I want to take it back,

532
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: reclaim that haircut. I don't care what you know. They're

533
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: all right to do, and I want it back. Damn it. Anyways,

534
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: another cots Wald resident, Mandy felt In, she had a

535
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: theory that there was somebody out there with a vendetta

536
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 1: against the cats. Those are her words, not the cats

537
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: did something and this is a payback. Yeah, because, like

538
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: you know, a vendetta means. For those who don't, vendetta

539
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: is typically defined as like a blood feud in which,

540
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: like I say, a member of a family gets murdered

541
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 1: the other family then has to go and murder to

542
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: their's to get payback. Exactly. It's some Sicilian stuff. Almost

543
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: cussed there, so Sicilian. So that's what she's thinking. So

544
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, well let's take old Mandy Felton at

545
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: her words. So is there somebody out there who's like

546
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: in a blood feud with a cat. What were the

547
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 1: cats doing to this dude that he had to get

548
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: back with, Like cats shaved him. That's a good point.

549
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: In his sleep, they're just sneaking in. So Mandy Felton's

550
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: cat Treacle, which is just a terrible cat's name, in

551
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: my opinion, was targeted twice, to be a lot of

552
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: these cats you notice are targeted multiple times. So the

553
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: idea of Vendetta maybe in a big extreme, but I

554
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 1: think there was a personal aspect to this a right,

555
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: So the cats are getting shaved, according to Mandy Felton,

556
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: from like the stomach, the down, the legs. It's like

557
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: typically in areas that are a little bit intimate, So

558
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: I don't mean it that way, and was saying is like,

559
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: so she's like, you know, basically the thing that bothers

560
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: her most is that to get this cat into this

561
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: position you have do either like you know, to shave

562
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: a cat, you kind of have to hold it down,

563
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: like pin it down. She's imagining someone man handling her.

564
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: You're kitty. See, I can't really say this anyway. I'm

565
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: say it's gonna sound like euphemismic. You know, we're not

566
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: going to do that. She was worried about people mistreating her.

567
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: We're not doing that. And so okay, well how am

568
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: I going to say this? She didn't want any want

569
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: to like apply pressure to the cat in a way

570
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: to hold it down that she could shave it. Okay,

571
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: so right, we've moved through it. So someone had also

572
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: done this to her daughter, TIA's cat. Oh I thought

573
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: you're gonna say to We're daughter Tia. She's like, oh

574
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: my god, the cup and then you know, this little

575
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: girl came back with a chunk out of her hair.

576
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: But anyway, the cat. So now, like these neighbors are

577
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: like all upset because mostly what they're imagining that's happening

578
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: to these cats, not even the fact, because the cats

579
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 1: aren't really getting hurt. Once again, much like Low of

580
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: the Cat. The cats are getting shaved, but there's no

581
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: like blood, there's no like scabs. The cats are not

582
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: being like drugged. Right now, we're gonna take a quick

583
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: little break and I'll be to tell you more and

584
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: we'll start off with John Kerry cat Lover. Oh okay, okay,

585
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: so we're back with John Kerry cat Lover. And now

586
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: when I say John Kerry, I don't mean former presidential

587
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: candidate Secretary State John Kerry. No, he actually is known

588
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: to cover cats and catch up as the hind forget.

589
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: I said that it's not true, allegedly allegedly, Well, this

590
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: John Kerry is a fifty two year old window washer

591
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: with a cat named Bow. Now Bo got clipped four

592
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: times in one month? What is both getting up? Exactly?

593
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: What it does? Not like staying home? That's what I know.

594
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: Does have a lot of real estate for is a

595
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: healthy target of er. Bo was probably dramatic. Oh and Bo,

596
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: by the way, is apparently a girl, because John Kerry says, quote,

597
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: she's not ball, but she's not looking very pretty these days.

598
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't. I don't think Bow is a

599
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: guy's name. I guess at this point, just no more

600
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: gendering your names. I'm not gonna assume Bo is a

601
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: guy's name of a girl's name. But I'm not gonna

602
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 1: assume anything about names anymore. I think none of us

603
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: should names. Yeah, everything, every name is just exactly you know,

604
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: what can you really expect to be based on her

605
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: name anyway? Right? Nothing? Billy Shakespeare will be so proud,

606
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: Yeah right, that's the l Anglo stuff. This is England.

607
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,719
Speaker 1: So my man, John carry the fifty two year old

608
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: window washer, not the Secretary of State. He's a good example.

609
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: Are the British pet based outrage because this catch shaving

610
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 1: thing is really getting to the people because of what

611
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: they're imagining. They're imagining what their cats are going through,

612
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: and they're imagining somebody man handling their pussycats. And he says,

613
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: quote and I say quote quote, it's ridiculous, ridiculous doing

614
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: this kind of thing. I'm sure it's taking a real

615
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: toll on the cat. Now, the poor thing must be traumatized.

616
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 1: I'm I'm surprised she still wants to go outside, John,

617
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: I'm not surprised. The cat got cut four times in

618
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: one month. She loves being outside. Now, John, though Carrie

619
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,719
Speaker 1: was like kind of onto some stuff. He was like

620
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: real worried, as I told you earlier about like he's

621
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: imagining what could happens. He told the press, and I quote,

622
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: I would say, it isn't. Isn't being done with an

623
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 1: electric razing. They would have to be very quick. They

624
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: must be restraining her to do it. She had a

625
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: bit of a limp, you know, a lip. Yeah. So,

626
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: but we don't know if that is animals fake limps.

627
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: You said this about your pet, Yeah, Wallace, the aforementioned Wallace.

628
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: When you would yell at him for like tipping over

629
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: the garbage can or something like, Wallace, why did you

630
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 1: do that? He would hold a pop and limp away

631
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 1: like I didn't because I'm injured, you're able, like and

632
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: he would make me feel guilty in the first couple

633
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: of times he did it. He's like a rescue dog.

634
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 1: And I got him so he had been abused. We

635
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: had to do a lot of work talk. The two

636
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 1: of us talked about shaving cats, you know, brought him,

637
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: brought him back around. I think that you know, and

638
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 1: I've seen that. Haven't you seen that video clip of

639
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 1: the guy on crutches and his dogs walking next to

640
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: him limping? Oh, I think this sounds familiar. I think

641
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 1: I think I've seen it. Follow enough wholesome name accounts, Now,

642
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: I don't you know cute animals? No, I count on

643
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: you to like text them to me. Yeah, I knew

644
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 1: not to open those texts. Did I have my read

645
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: still launch so much like with the case of Merry

646
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: Bale before the police were eventually called in, because you know,

647
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: these Cotswalds villagers. They needed to know if they're Tabbies

648
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: and Persians and the Russian Blues and main cones of

649
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: mentioned Hampton, we're going to be safe because they had

650
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: Jack the Clipper on the loop. So that's so much

651
00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: better than the other end. So the forty year old

652
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: Bernice Hodges from Beaverston. Nearby Beaverston, she logs onto Facebook

653
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: one day and she's like feeling a little high and

654
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: mighty for herself because she notices her neighbors. One of

655
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: them is complaining about my cat came home and had

656
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: been shaved, and she's like, loll roll my eyes, let's

657
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: help with you. Yeah, exactly, And right as she's trying

658
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 1: to stifle and yet another laugh, she thought to herself,

659
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: that's so stupid. And then her cat jumped onto and

660
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: I quote jumped onto me for a stroke, and I

661
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,479
Speaker 1: saw he had been shaved. It's all funny games until

662
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: the cat shaver comes for you, isn't it, Bernice quote stop?

663
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: So wait, so she okay, I'm gonna take a step

664
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 1: back capping on everybody, and then she starts petting her

665
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: cat and there's a huge hole in the front and

666
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: her four year old Maggie jumps. Do you have a cat?

667
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: I don't have a cat. Do you have a cat?

668
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: I have a dog? A dog he doesn't have? Asked

669
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 1: well to be a test leader? Do you have a parakeet? Okay,

670
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,959
Speaker 1: luckily it's never like more than four feet from me. Yeah.

671
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 1: If someone shaved him, I don't know. I wonder what

672
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: he did to deserve it. Victim. So she her four

673
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: year old Maggie, which, by the way, I had never

674
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: heard that word maggie. I had to look that. If

675
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: you know that term maggie, that's what the Brits call

676
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: a cat. Who's a mutt? Maggie? Why does that feel

677
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: like maybe there's some sort of problematic it's British problem

678
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like do you say that?

679
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: And then like someone's like, oh no, no, no, we

680
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: don't yea. Well, now that the old catch shaver come

681
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: for Bernice and her Maggie, right, she's on the case.

682
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: She's like, well, we don't know what that really means.

683
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: She's like she starts going off all over to suspicious

684
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: details in her mind. She's like, what have I seen lately?

685
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: And cut Swalds villages and then she realizes mm, I

686
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: did see that white van. So there was a white

687
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,319
Speaker 1: van in the neighborhood that was apparently parked Strangely, She's like,

688
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: that's it. I'd be willing to bet you they were

689
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 1: after the cat. So and Bernice, it's always the white van.

690
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 1: Of course, you know, if you're gonna grab somebody, you

691
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 1: need a white van. She's like, hanging out the side

692
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: with some whiskers. Hey, can you help me find my kids?

693
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: See how I flipped it? Like, well, Bernice reason, it

694
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: was actually way darker than that. So she goes it

695
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 1: could be innocent, but in a very small vie that

696
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 1: I do take a second glance. It does make you

697
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: worry a bit that something could have happened, someone could

698
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: be taken blood for DNA or something. There's so much

699
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 1: research going on with cats at the moment. It definitely

700
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: makes you more aware of what's going on. Now. Bernice

701
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: goes from laughing at people on Facebook to claiming a

702
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 1: vast conspiracy where people are capturing the cats of England

703
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 1: for their d NA. Oh, Berniceernie. So. Bernice takes this

704
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 1: to the town council because that's where the rubber meets

705
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: the road for democracy and the town councils like, oh look, Bernie,

706
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna take this very seriously now if you think

707
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: that's on the next year. Over the US, there is

708
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: a copycat cat shaver always because they're like, oh wait

709
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: a minute, what are they doing over there. It's a

710
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,879
Speaker 1: new trend in Waynesboro, Virginia, imitating the Plymouth cat shaver

711
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: and Jack the Clipper. There is the Waynesboro I don't know,

712
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: the amateur cat barber of Waynesboro and the Sweeney Talk Virginia.

713
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: They went and they attacked seven cats. Seven cats were

714
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,919
Speaker 1: found shaved, and unfortunately there were no witnesses in any

715
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: of the incidents. So it was just kind of weird though,

716
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: because like, you know, who's out there shaving cats? Like

717
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,439
Speaker 1: who's like, you know, that's the copycat crime? For me? Well,

718
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: is it a copycat? It could have been a maybe

719
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,800
Speaker 1: this person had to come and work in the United

720
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: States for a little bit, same person, so it wasn't

721
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: like lazy Satanist. It was actually the same Jack the Clipper.

722
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: He's like on a sabbatical lazy Satanists or so that's

723
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 1: like my favorite motorcycle game. So the police of Waynesboro

724
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: is it's America. They take it way more serious. So

725
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 1: unlike the town council, we have a Captain Kelly Walker

726
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: of Waynesboro, Virginia. So he's in there. He wants soldier totally.

727
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: He wants everyone to like at ease and at rest

728
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: because this cat business, we got this handled. So he

729
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: tells him, quote collectively, this involved seven cats that are

730
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: indoor and outdoor cats. People are like, oh okay, so like,

731
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:22,399
Speaker 1: is that good? Is that bad? And he's like, well,

732
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: I want you to understand. These aren't something like you know,

733
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 1: out of town cats coming in here trying to get

734
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 1: Swiss cheese up. We got our local cats getting messed

735
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: up by this cat cat And they're like, what do

736
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 1: you mean. He's like, and I quote the cats are

737
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: wearing collars and are well groomed, so obviously these are

738
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: you know, good old fashioned neighborhood cats, you know, not

739
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 1: like some of those back alley cats you might see

740
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: late at night. We were just asking for it, going

741
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: around there, not living right getting shaved up. You know.

742
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: So first of all, I'm really disappointed that he said

743
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 1: cats and not felines. That sounds like it would be

744
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: like three felines coming in Yeah, that was. Are you

745
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:05,359
Speaker 1: surprised you didn't say these cats are no angels. I'm

746
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: trying to get my head around this. Well, they're they're

747
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 1: well groomed, you know, yeah, exactly. I like that. This

748
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 1: is like he wants them to know, like, these are

749
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: victims that are worth my time, you know, aren't the

750
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,360
Speaker 1: ones that no one's gonna miss. Yeah, and you're like, okay,

751
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: what do you do on the weekend? He hangs out

752
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: at trucks. I have to stop making jokes about real people.

753
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: Is just a joke. Yes, good mind. So we'll skip

754
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 1: away from Waynesboro over and we're in We're getting back

755
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: in jolly old England. It's now so we've moved forward

756
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: four years in time. Okay, guess who's back in business,

757
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: The Great UK Catchaver. So all of a sudden there's

758
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: a new wave of catch having crimes and people I

759
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 1: don't know how had forgotten the previous incident. So there

760
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 1: are new victims who have no idea what's going on.

761
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 1: They don't know the history of the Cotswalds villages. Problems

762
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: with amateur cat barbers, you know what. The problem was

763
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 1: not enough hashtags for that first event. It didn't go

764
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: viral enough nobody had a death threat page on Facebook

765
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: made sure exactly. So the cat shaver gets back in business.

766
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: So what is the pandemic? Like, why would the cat

767
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: shavers suddenly go? You know, I feel the hunger. I

768
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 1: need to shave a cat. All they used up all

769
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:27,919
Speaker 1: the DNA samples. She's like, look at all those cats

770
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: sitting outside. Well, I'm locked up. That ain't right. What

771
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: is it? I want to know. What do you think

772
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,279
Speaker 1: makes a person go, I gotta get back to my

773
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 1: old ways kind of gotta do it. I don't know.

774
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: They want to see if the cat has cellulite. This

775
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: is just a natural urge. The one of the new victims,

776
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 1: a woman named Andrea Wilson. She goes and uh after

777
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 1: her cat returns home with a fresh buzz cut, and

778
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: she's all upset. She uh takes to Facebook post some pics.

779
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:03,320
Speaker 1: Oh up and says, here's my shaved cat, Daisy. And

780
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: now most people don't want to post pictures of the

781
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: shaved cat on face, but but she decides to do it.

782
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: And some of the older residents in the area they

783
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: remembered how it was before. They're like, wait, five years back,

784
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 1: way back, five years ago. It's been five long years.

785
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 1: In southeastern England there was this cat barber, did they.

786
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: I wish that people had written songs about it, folk songs,

787
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 1: and then we'd know because it would get passed down

788
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 1: through the five year generation, the Ballad of the Cat.

789
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: There's another local resident, Rebecca Kyo or I maybe pronouncing

790
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 1: it wrong, probably kio key off cough. I don't know,

791
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: it's k e o g h. Becca. She says her

792
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: cat's name is Shelby and Smudge. So she says, quote

793
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 1: Shelby came back completely shaved at one point, apart from

794
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,719
Speaker 1: his head and feet. Smudge must have struggled because one

795
00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: time she was shaved, she actually had cuts on her.

796
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 1: Wish she had been caught. This is the first mention

797
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: of cuts on anybody's you know. Apparently either this may

798
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: not be the same person, or they're just not as

799
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: good at it. They've fallen out of practice. But finally

800
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: now we have actual damage. So fellow cat lovers they

801
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,839
Speaker 1: take to the Facebook page We Love Radford and they

802
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: warn the newcomers and the young cat owners who don't

803
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: know about the Plymouth cat shaver and Jack the Clipper

804
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: and the cat barber of Devon and they say, look,

805
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: you need to be very careful with your cats in

806
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 1: these parts because the mystery remains unsolved. They never found

807
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: us to go out there possibly sing away doing whatever

808
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: they want in the dark of night. Now, even with

809
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 1: all these ring cameras and still no witnesses, no leads, nothing,

810
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 1: what if the cats are shaving each other? This is

811
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: a question worth pondering. Yeah, like you know, maybe there's

812
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,959
Speaker 1: somebody who's not a person doing it, not a cat,

813
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of dogs. There you go, some dogs are

814
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: out there, dog gang gang. Yeah, you gotta shave a

815
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 1: couple of cats and bring the little fuzzy pelts back. Interestingly,

816
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: no dogs have been reported being shaved. That dogs wouldn't

817
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: not not in England they love those dogs. But what's

818
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 1: interesting is I looked up there was a bunch of

819
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 1: crimes where dogs had had horrible times where they went

820
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: to the dog groomer, where they paid the dog groomer

821
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: and they came back when they had like they how

822
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 1: he looked like boiled meat. And I'm like, did you

823
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: want to eat them? You know, like I know how

824
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 1: British comping is, Like I would bet you were confused

825
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 1: that's a dicey proposition to get that, is it. I

826
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 1: had no idea. I don't have a dog to grooms

827
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't go to a dog groomer anyway if

828
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: I did. But we had a We had a dog

829
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: growing up, who's the Springer Spaniel that we took to

830
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: a groomer once to get like a field cut or

831
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: whatever for the summer. And he came back just totally

832
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: like cut up, like scabs and stuff, and I don't know,

833
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: it was weird. And then I've seen I see pictures

834
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 1: all the time of people with a little fluffy dogs

835
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 1: who take them in they come out looking shaved rat. Yea,

836
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: that got a ridiculous hair cut once and I wasn't

837
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: the one who gave it to him. How could people

838
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: not be good at if that's all you do. I

839
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 1: don't know. But I I knew someone who wanted who

840
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: wanted to work at a groomer's and was like an apprentice,

841
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: and they've practiced on Elliott and he first I show

842
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: up and Elliott had him foe hawk, and I was like,

843
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: if I saw a kid with a faux hawk, I'd

844
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 1: shave that off. That's child abuse. The same with a

845
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,839
Speaker 1: rat tail. Wait a minute, then yeah, but then it's

846
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 1: like to my dog, see that blood boiler. Fix that.

847
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: So he fixed it. And then and Elliott was it

848
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,319
Speaker 1: was cut so close and so short that he was

849
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: like freaking out. And I had to put that thundershirt

850
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: thing for that's supposed to help them when they were

851
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,439
Speaker 1: afraid of fireworks. And it doesn't help Elliott because he's

852
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: the most sensitive soul. Yeah, neurotic dog on the face

853
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 1: of earth. Yeah, bundled him up. You know. It's like

854
00:45:57,880 --> 00:45:59,480
Speaker 1: when you go to get your hair cut and you

855
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 1: look in the in the mirror and so do what now? Yeah,

856
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 1: I know one haircut this century. Yeah, that's who you

857
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: go and and they say, how do you like it?

858
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 1: You're just like, oh god, I can't. I don't want

859
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 1: you to do anything more to this. It looks great. Thanks.

860
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: You go home and you just stare at it and

861
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,560
Speaker 1: you're like, many people pay for this? Yeah? I don't know.

862
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,000
Speaker 1: You know, for a long time, in like the early

863
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 1: two thousand's, late nineties, I had like baby doll bangs.

864
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: As you're doing that yourself completely, that sounds like something

865
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: you do tell you could tell my mental and emotional

866
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 1: state by how short the Banks were just a tracker

867
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: you had on your forehead getting shorter and shorter and

868
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 1: went like, oh, she's she's staying up. Yeah. So if

869
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 1: you had to guess, who do you think is shaving

870
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: all those cats in the UK? One person? Multiple people?

871
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 1: Is it a trend? I think it's one guy. I

872
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: don't know why. I feel like it's a man and

873
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 1: not a woman. But it's a guy. I'm going to

874
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 1: go prof file this cach. I like it, go for it.

875
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,880
Speaker 1: It's a man. Give me that. FBI Energy to fifty

876
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 1: has a grudge against the cats because the cats go

877
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: to his house and they mock him, and they take

878
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:18,360
Speaker 1: dumps in his flower beds and they go in and

879
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: they like open up bags and chips in his kitchen

880
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: and hiding him and jump out scratch him up. All

881
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: the time. He's had it. I'm shaping those mothers, you know.

882
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:31,280
Speaker 1: I think it is Banks, Like, well, I got an argument,

883
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,839
Speaker 1: think about it. You're right, he's British, so he's there.

884
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 1: He likely knows how to operate in electric hair clippers

885
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 1: since he was raised on trip hop and people don't

886
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 1: know who he is, like the hair clipping trip up

887
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: the are you talking? Have you seen all those haircuts.

888
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 1: It's all electric clipper haircuts. That's like like I cut

889
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 1: my own hair in a gas station bathroom with these

890
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: electric clippers. I gotta get to the rave. So what's

891
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 1: he doing right now? He just shows up places and

892
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 1: he leaves behind murals. Well maybe he shaves a few

893
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: cats before and he pumps on down the road. What

894
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: if you put the cats under a black light and

895
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: there's like a stencil on the bald spot as the

896
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: banks He sends yeah, and then people Yeah. So what's

897
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 1: a ridiculous takeaway after this? Um? Well, quite frankly, I

898
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: could talk about cats for hours. That's my takeaway. My

899
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,360
Speaker 1: takeaway is that I still really want to see a

900
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 1: completely shaven, heavy cat. I like that about you my

901
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 1: ridiculous takeaways. I found out there's no way to talk

902
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:44,359
Speaker 1: about man handling a cat without sounding like a dirt bag. Yeah. Yeah,

903
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: that's you. Did you proved? Yeah? Thanks for joining us.

904
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,279
