Speaker 1: of it that way. I don't really care about the

11
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: temperature inside of the shoe, although I'm more thinking it's

12
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,280

Speaker 1: all kinds of shoes are a couple of bucks. The

20
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,560
Speaker 1: nightmare scenario of putting your feet and bowling shoes and

21
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: they're still warm. Oh yeah, And I actually okay, full disclosure.

22
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: I would steal bowling shoes from the bowling alley in

23
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: my hometown and then wear them back to that same

24
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: bowling alley and insist that they weren't from that bowling

25
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: alley because all bowling alley shoes look the same, and

26
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: they were like, are you kidding me? I had to

27
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 1: join a bowling league for work once, and I'm like,

28
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: the world's worth worst bowler. And I kind of then

29
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: play that up and do it on purpose and hoping

30
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: they would kick me out and I wouldn't have to

31
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: go anymore. But I insisted I bought my own shoes.

32
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: I don't wear other people's shoes, so you want to

33
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: wear other people's shoes. I don't look at it that way,

34
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: Like it's not about the other people in their feet,

35
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: my feet getting together in a shoe space. It's more like,

36
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: I just want to wear those shoes. How much I

37
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 1: got a dollar fifty? Can I wear those for like

38
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: two hours? She's all about me in my shoe experience.

39
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: That's all I'm looking at it. I don't care. There's

40
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: a lot of things I'm sharing, these ones that you

Speaker 1: that's fine. Let you have that one. Something else. That's

46
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: pretty ridiculous as pants seeing someone down their pants, but

47
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: it's even more so if you're robbing them. Yes me,

52
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,960

53
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: that's one of the nice things about working from home.

54
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: You know you could be pants free. But I'm gonna

55
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: be honest. I do wear pants all day, but I

56
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: wear soft pants. I've heard that soft pants are really

57
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: really I make a distinction between soft pants and hard pants.

58
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: And there are levels of soft pants, sweatpants, pajama pants.

59
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: I don't I'm a little bit further up the formal ladder,

60
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: but I'm not wearing anything with like a zipper. I

61
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: was just about asked, what are the structural requirements for

62
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: soft pants? Like, I don't even quite know. Hard pants

63
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: have more hardware in them, and I'm like rivets and zippers. Yeah, okay,

64
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: so like jeans and slacks and chinas, and then they

65
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: also the fabrics harder. Okay, But what if I have

66
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: like a pair of like, you know, tuxedo pants. They're

67
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: pretty soft pants. There's a there's a button, some sort

68
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: of class. Okay, I'm with you. I agree with your

69
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: first statement that pantslessness is next to god listens. I well,

70
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: I wish I could lounge around with no pants on

71
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: all day, but I am so anxious. I feel like

72
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: something terrible would happen, Like the house would catch fire.

73
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: There'd be like a big earthquake, and I'd have to

74
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: run outside with just in my honey pants. That's bad. Yeah,

75
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: well that's I am terrified of being in public with

76
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: no pants on because people will see my, my, my.

77
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm not quite catching up here on this one. Are

78
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: you embarrassed by your knees? Like you're like, I can't

79
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: let anyone see. I like to be as fully covered

80
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: as possible. I don't want to be caught pants less

81
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,560

Speaker 1: in it. I don't want to shirts and no pants.

83

00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the idea of being nude in public?

109
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: bait and tackle between your legs, it does slap around

110
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: a little bit, and that can be little painful if

111
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: you're like, you know, uh, endowed in a way. But

112

114
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: of your body. Like it's a feeling I cannot recommend enough.

Speaker 1: the side. Just like that, they make a run for

153
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: it out the front door, and they disappear into a

154
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: busy street, gather up by the crowds. It was just

155
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: thinking that he couldn't chase them. Yeah, poor Irving. He

156
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: wants to give chase, but he's in his underpants. He fumbles,

157
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: and he gets dressed as quickly as possible. Too late late.

158
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: So their technique for stopping their victim from giving chase works. Yeah,

159
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: they're looking for people's modesty and fear of exposure to

160
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:07,079
Speaker 1: keep them from getting pursued them. Gang's already gone. Gangs gone.

161
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: So a couple of some days later, Sydney Gallen, he's

162
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: manning his store at the Heat and Spring Company on

163
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: the other side of the Bronx. I have no idea

164
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: what the Heat and Spring Company was. I have tried

165
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: desperately to research this. I can't find it. I sell

166
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: fine coiled metal, sure mattress store. Yeah, oh, there you go,

167
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: mattress springs, springs. I don't know, box springs. He makes

168
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: the best. There's a big there's a big county of spring.

169
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: So Sydney is all alone in the shop or the

170
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: shore showroom or whatever it is. The three people walk

171
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: into women and a man. The gorgeous dame in the

172
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: leather trench coat, which goes up to Sydney, points a

173
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: gun at him. Give me all your money. Sydney gives

174
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: her a spring. I don't know. I don't know he

175
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: gave her the money. The group marches Sydney to the

176
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: back of the store. That pistol tote. Mama demands that

177
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: he takes off his pants, don't do it. He's modest.

178
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: He says, no, no, I gave you the money enough,

179
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: get out of here. And she yells, look, pal, I'm

180
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: shocked proof. Yeah, she seen it all. I wouldn't know

181
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: if someone said that to me. Okay, okay, And that

182
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: means let's just circle back around here. So you want

183
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: me to take my bank? You also water resistant, because

184
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: I'm confused. So he's got the gun in his face,

185
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: He's like, fine, sheds his trousers once he's bare legged.

186
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 1: They scamper away, they run off. Sydney's left trying to

187
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: get his bridges back on or Sydney. A couple of

188
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: days after that is the door Cohen. He's working the

189
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: counter at is Delhi on St. Peter's Avenue in the Bronx.

190
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: In the Bronx, three people walk in, woman, woman, man?

191
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: So is it door? He like probably said like, hey,

192
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: would you like a taste of this cured meat? You

193
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: kind of work the customers? Hey you want to slice

194
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: head cheese? No thanks, I'm trying to quit. And the

195
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 1: lady the trench coach, he whips out her gun, aims

196
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: at it. Poor is the door? And what does she do?

197
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: Demands the money from the register and maybe a couple

198
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: of spicy sausages. Throw that in there too. Can I

199
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: get a container of the macaroni salad while you're at it?

200
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: There is so as before they get all the loot,

201
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: go to the back of this door. Take off your pants?

202
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: Is it? Door? Is like, no, straight up, no, take

203
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: them off? Nope, I have too much pride. I will

204
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: not take off my pants. So this really made the

205
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: leather trench coat lady mad supermatt. She goes over to

206
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: is a door and roughly removed his pants for him,

207
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: and then I will do it, young, I will denude you,

208
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: and so like I'm going to guess in one of

209
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: my invented details. And then she takes the pants and

210
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: marches to the front to the meat slicer and runs

211
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: them through and just but no, she probably just like

212
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: death stare. She probably just threw them to the side

213
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: and they run off. So the men each go to

214
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,079
Speaker 1: the cops and tell their story day to day to

215
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: day together probably on their own. Happens there, Oh my god,

216
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: they got robbed. They make up police report. I didn't

217
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: know if they went together, yeah, well know. So they

218
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: each go individually after each episode how they make a

219
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: police report. These have to be stopped. These robberies getting crazy.

220
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: People are losing their pants, they're losing their money, they're

221
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: losing their sausages. It's terrible. So they said, you know, okay,

222
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: so what did the dame with the gun look like?

223
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 1: They ask, Well, you know what, she's pretty, they say,

224
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 1: that's how they're describing her. And she made you take

225
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: off your pants. Well, yes, most seems to be the

226
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: problem here. Cops like, you know what, we need to

227
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: catch this woman. Let's call her the pretty pants bandit. Wait,

228
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: they used the modifier of pretty for the pants, right, Okay,

229
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 1: so when you first read it, you think maybe her

230
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: pants are pretty. This is bandit who wears such pretty pants?

231
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: Look at those pants, kids, She is wearing like those

232
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 1: eighties wrestler pants, and they're like, she's ahead of her time.

233
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: Look at Lady Mula and those pretty pants splattered. I

234
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: thought she wore pretty pants. And then I also hear

235
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: pretty pants, and I want to hear it like a

236
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: parrot pretty pants, And I kind of like out if

237
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: I were going to reimagine this, which is all I

238
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 1: ever do with these things, that she runs into the

239
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: store and yells pretty pants and then takes her pants off,

240
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 1: and she was stealing pants, not money, pretty pants. Yeah,

241
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: so those are some pretty pants. I'm gonna need those.

242
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: Can I DIBs on your pretty box them? So why

243
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: was she making them drop trout? Well, as I said,

244
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: to keep him from chasing her. That's brilliant. I love that.

245
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: And they knew they weren't going to pull his erin

246
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: go trotting around with no pants. I am offended she'd

247
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: be called pulling ls erin my my apologies, I'm going

248
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: to guess that these guys were still wearing their underwear,

249
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I don't know it was. Yeah,

250
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: the historical record isn't particularly clear, but I think that

251
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: from what I gathered, they still had their underclothes on.

252
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: But I the only way you can embarrass me by

253
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: taking my pants off is if my underwear was dirty.

254
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: Have you got me down to nudity? I'm like cool,

255
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: but you like, in the meantime my underwear is dirty,

256
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: I'd be like, my mother is never going to live

257
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: down this shame. Why are you wearing dirty underwear? What?

258
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it for whatever reason, Like, say, they

259
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: scared me and like my pants exactly, like that would

260
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: be more embarrassed there at the meat slicer. And then

261
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: you feel your you feel your drawers and take off

262
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: your pants. No, no, trust me, no, no, no, just

263
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: we just burn them off. I had a little too too.

264
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: Uh so, yeah, maybe they're unmentionables. Were unmentionable, who knows,

265
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: who knows? But I let's take a short break. We

266
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: come back. I'm going to tell you more about pretty

267
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: pants and panting ways. So the pretty pants bandit, the

268
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: pretty pants bandit. Yeah that's better. Yeah, she's a terror.

269
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: She hates pants. I can't stand him. She's going to

270
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: strike again. I want to see this movie. Yeah, well,

271
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: we'll make it Monday April. I was there. Thomas McMahon.

272
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: He's working in his butcher's shop on Willis Avenue in

273
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: the Bronx Great Shop in the district. He and his

274
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: brother own it together. His brother's name is Henry, So

275
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: Thomas and Henry just a couple of blocks from the

276
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 1: Harlem River to kind of orient you as to where

277
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: they are in the appreciate and Henry's in the back

278
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: doing back room stuff and Thomas is upfront working at

279
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: the counter. A beautiful woman in a leather trench coat

280
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: enters the books butcher shop, not the bookshop, the butcher's shop. Yeah,

281
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: Thomas has no clue. Apparently, it's not like in the

282
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: grape Vine of all these merchants too. Yeah, they're not talking.

283
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: But she gets in by herself for this one. She

284
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: walks in alone, comes up to the counter and she says,

285
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: wrop me up a couple of pounds of beefsteak, right,

286
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: and she smiles at him and bats her eyelashes. Wrap

287
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: me up a couple of pounds of baef steak. So

288
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: Thomas thinks that's Thomas weighs out the meat starts to

289
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: wrap it up all nice with heavy white paper twine.

290
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: Just then another man and a woman enter and they

291
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: stand on either side of the trench coat lady kind

292
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: of block the view from Like if you're outside on

293
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: the street and you look in, you're only going to

294
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: see three backs. You're not going to be able to

295
00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: see Thomas at the counter block him out. Maybe they

296
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: all had giant shoulder pads on getting ready for their

297
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: comedy set in the eighties. I don't know. I go

298
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: on after e Lane Booze Lef. So they're crowded in there,

299
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 1: which is weird. You know. Thomas is like hello, personal

300
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: space people, He's not thinking about it. And then brother

301
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: Hank won't like Henry, get out here. This is weird.

302
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: So pretty pants bandit, Pretty pants bandit. She pulls out

303
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: two pistols, one in each hand and aims them at Thomas. Now,

304
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 1: I want to stop for a second and say that

305
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: in the old photos of her that I've found in

306
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: the paper, uh, it looks like her trench coat is

307
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:45,640
Speaker 1: black and shiny. Okay. And she now pulls out sure,

308
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: but it's like not a like a dull leather, it's

309
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: not patent leather, but shiny leather in the pictures pulls

310
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: she's greasy. She pulls out two guns, stares down some dude.

311
00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 1: And what I'm trying to say here is that I

312
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: think she was actually Trinity from the Matrix. Have you

313
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: seen those movies? No? Okay, that explains why you think that.

314
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: Go on. I also am trying to say that I

315
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: think the Bronx is a glitch in the Matrix. I

316
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: think that you're onto something there. I'm gonna put together

317
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: as I'm gonna put together a power point on this,

318
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: and we'll go over it later so that you can

319
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: finally understand the matrix actually gave up on Queens because

320
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: it could not predict it with the algorithms, or like,

321
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: just let queens go, too badass, just a real Queens

322
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: in the matrix. Same with the Bronx. Don't touch it,

323
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: leave it alone. So anyway, Trinity, she draws double guns

324
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: on this guy, and here's what she says, put them

325
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: up and no, funny business. Are all sprinkling with these things.

326
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love that. I'm not making that

327
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: quota of it's just too cool. I couldn't come over

328
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: with funny business. Are all sprinkly with these things that

329
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 1: that needs to be in a rap song yesterday. Sprinkle me,

330
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 1: sprinkle me, sprinkle you with these things. Frinkly with these things.

331
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: That's her usual emo. She says, give me all the

332
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: cash in the store. She probably was like, don't forget

333
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: the beef steak I asked for, never forget the beef steady.

334
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: And apparently she get like super piste when she was

335
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: ordering these guys around and demanding the money. What did

336
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: this guy do something she's never been She was no,

337
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: but she in historically and all of her stick ups.

338
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: She's super mad. She tells the butcher, I'm gonna blow

339
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 1: your brains out. I was like, coming in nut wow,

340
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: went from beef steak to blow your brains. I mean,

341
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: you don't like my brains. One of her victims are

342
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: earlier victims, was interviewed and she said he said, she

343
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 1: snarled and spat like an angry jungle cat, and she

344
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: went about her work with a jungle fury, which fairly

345
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: terrorized People's really jungle focused happy on the jungle. Right.

346
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: He's been reading a lot of Tarzan comics at the time,

347
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 1: and he was reading a Tarzan comic when he got robbed,

348
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: and it's like an association in his memory, just like

349
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: it's so animalistic. And so you know, as I said,

350
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: I've seen pictures of her. I'm gonna put them on

351
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: the insta. But I like to take the quote about

352
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: her like jungle cat sense, and imagine that she looks

353
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: like Jocelyn Wildenstein, the lady who got all the plastic

354
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: surgery to make herself look like a cat. Oh yeah,

355
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: let's pretend that's what That's not what this lady looks like.

356
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: Let's pretend, or we can pretend that her cat like

357
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: features are because she looks like Ron Perlman and Beauty

358
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: and the Piece. Okay, now you speaking my language, or

359
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 1: she looks like Ron Perlman and Sons of Anarchy. Also,

360
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm a kiddy cat run okay. So

361
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 1: for the club, always for the club. Don't worry. I

362
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: have a plan. So these are my invented details for you.

363
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: She demands the cash and the register, and she tells

364
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: Thomas to get into the rear of the story. You know,

365
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 1: the drill, you know where this is going. So as

366
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: she's walking to the back of the store, she puts

367
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 1: one of the guns back in her pocketbook and pulls

368
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: out a little folding compact mirror with the like powder

369
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: puff inside, and she opens it up and checks her lipstick.

370
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: You know, she's probably feeling a little smug about like

371
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: how doper whole vibe was. She's like, I got this

372
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 1: shiny trench coat on my makeup. I really nailed it

373
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: this morning, like my cat. I Uh, what's it called eyeliner?

374
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: Maybe that's where the cat stuff comes from. She's all, oh,

375
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: severe eye makeup the whole like Cleopatra. Maybe she had whiskers,

376
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: she just had long, unfortunate facial hair really like really

377
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: thick and bristly, like cat's whiskers. That's how they identified it. Now,

378
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: So she pulls out her mirror and she's looking. She's like,

379
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: I'm feeling cute, might rob later, so cute, and she's

380
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: focusing on her makeup and she doesn't notice all Henry,

381
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: the other McMahon brother, far corner of the back room, trembling, trembling.

382
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: But so he's trembling. She's like, you know, take off

383
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 1: your pants, big boy. Well I do up my face. Well,

384
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't know what she said. I don't have a

385
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: quote for that one, but she's vain. She's like, she's

386
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 1: got one hand with the gun out, the other hand

387
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: with the mirror. She's looking at herself, and then she

388
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 1: looks over at Thomas. Well, the problem is this big

389
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: miss step. And this is what the papers at the

390
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: time focused on, is that they said that when she

391
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 1: had the mirror, it was her feminine desire to look

392
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: her best in the eyes of the men confronting her guns. Right,

393
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: So the male, the male gaze was her downfall. She's like,

394
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 1: I gotta look good for these dudes if I'm going

395
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: to be sticking them up. I mean, I want them

396
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: to respect me but also be attracted to me. So

397
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: the gun is for respect, the makeup is for I

398
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: need validation. Wow, how hot am I like on a

399
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: one to tend? So Henry sees this bizarre scene with

400
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: the mirror and the gun, and she still got the gun.

401
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: So he just nopes out of there. And how does

402
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: he do it? Tiptoes over to an open window and

403
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: jumps out. Yeah, He's like jumps out and I like

404
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 1: to imagine there's a Wilhelm scream when he jumps out

405
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: the window. So, while Thomas is in the middle of

406
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: dropping trout, Henry Hall's asked down an alley and out

407
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: into the street. Just well he yeah, he has his

408
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: pants on, so he's like, I can go out in

409
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: the street. My brother, Thomas, no pants, look at me?

410
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: Pants on, living good, living right, feeling fully fitted out.

411
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 1: He gets out into that like bustling thoroughfare. Right, so's

412
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: yelling for the cops. The lady bandit and her associates

413
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: here the commotion like, oh dag nabbit, there's someone else

414
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 1: was in here. And then I guess they maybe maybe

415
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: they heard him tumble out. He like jumps out the window,

416
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 1: you know, like splats in the road. I don't know

417
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: how I mean, I guess it wasn't a high window

418
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 1: because it's a butcher story. Just like walk right imaging

419
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: first floor window standing outside. Yeah, there's a splash. Okay,

420
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: I like that. You're doing good on that one. So

421
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: he they the bandits. They hear like, oh man, we

422
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,880
Speaker 1: gotta make a break for it. At the same time,

423
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 1: neighbors heard Henry calling for help. They called the fuzz

424
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: and two police officers, Lester Levy and George Smith, they're

425
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: driving by car fifty four at that exact moment and

426
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: they hear the ap B and they're like, oh, this

427
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: is right here. So they go towards the butcher store

428
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: about two blocks away. Right, so they see this woman

429
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: in a trench coat just straight up sprinting down the street.

430
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: First rule, didn't you watch Godfather? You walk away? Walk away?

431
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: Be cool? Act like you know, everyone looks at the

432
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 1: person run. So the papers at the time they have

433
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 1: all these really reckless descriptions of the lady. So they

434
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 1: like stuff about her brown curls streaming in the wind

435
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,880
Speaker 1: behind her as she ran. They call her a brown

436
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: eyed spitfire. Oh yeah, I call myself that. Well, yeah,

437
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: isn't that like your middle name when your driver's license.

438
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: The press loved her great content. She's Trinity from the

439
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: Clickable And so as she's running away, she's tailed by

440
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: a passer by yelling stop thief, which I just love that.

441
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: Oh really, I'm over here shaking my head, pain in

442
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: the neck, innocent bystand mind your own no. But I'm thinking, like,

443
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: we don't do that and stop thief, because if you

444
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 1: did that, then the thief would turn around really probably

445
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 1: laugh too hard. Yeah, but like or nothing would happen.

446
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: And yeah, so stop thief. And they'd also be talking

447
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: about someone who took their n f T s like

448
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: he's screenshot at man. Sorry he doesn't have anything. No,

449
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: you don't understand, he's got my digital image. Stop. So

450
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: I love that. Simpler times, Officer Levy jumps out of

451
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: the car ahead of the bandit and goes to stop her.

452
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: So they kind of cut her off in the car.

453
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: He jumps out running yeah, freeze. She stops and like curses, swears,

454
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: and then ducks into a doorway. And she also pulls

455
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: out one of her guns and aims it at the cop. Yeah, Levy, Levy.

456
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: If this happened today, Levy would be dressed like g

457
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: I Joe and he would to lit her up there

458
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: right on the spot. But no, No, Instead, Levy like

459
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: she's she's in the doorway, she pulls the gun out.

460
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: He jumps to the side to get out of range,

461
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 1: and she puts her arm forward out of the doorway

462
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: to like move and see where he went, and the

463
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 1: cop jumps on her and takes the gun from her hand.

464
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: Gun hand around the corner. I guess she was going

465
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: to see if maybe she could suddenly have the ability

466
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: to see through the barrel of the gun she had

467
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: like pistol the totally or she pulled out her compact

468
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: and held it up. Yeah, that would be cratty kind

469
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: of smart. Smart. So she gets arrested surprise, um. And

470
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: then also her accomplices. Who her accomplices? They were Miss

471
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: Betty Coker, Oh Betty, what's up? Bets? And Mr James Googliarmo.

472
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: I think that's a gugliermo Okay, I think it's okay,

473
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,640

Speaker 1: that gugliemo, Jimmy Googs, But I put your enough names.

475
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: I'm not judging her saying that. I would just say it.

476
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: I don't know. Apologies to the Gugliarmo families around the world.

477
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: I kind of feel sorry for Betty and James because

478
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: no one talks about how hot they were. Everyone's going

479
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: on about the lady of the trench code. Oh she's

480
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: a spitfire, she's a looker. Oh she had to check

481
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: her makeup. I bet you feel bad for Rob Kardashian too, No,

482
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: but like, what's poor Betty Man? She's like over here,

483
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 1: James is like, do you know how long it took

484
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 1: me to get my hair slicked back? Like I got

485
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: new grease today. I mean, this is this is a

486
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: new oil and nobody noticed this is scented oil too.

487
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: By the way, I'm getting you on two levels here, people.

488
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,239
Speaker 1: So they're just like another two other human beings with her.

489
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it was a probably a woman,

490
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 1: but the one in the alright, was she really big?

491
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: You said, you've seen these pictures, Like, I'm just gonna

492
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: put it out there. There were different physical standards when

493
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: you get past like I don't know, nineteen yesterday and

494
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: it's just boom boom, boom. It gets weirder and weirder

495
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: every decade. Finally, by the time you're in the thirties,

496
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, so this is this is hot? Yeah?

497
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: Is she like one of those where it's like she

498
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: could model like piano mover companies, Like, I don't know,

499
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: this is amazing. She's a rawny girl, big rad shoulders,

500
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, like she does not she would

501
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 1: not be considered conventionally like shockingly beautiful. So she's not

502
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: like one of those aquiline types that the thirties people

503
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: might have like fetishized. She was much more of like

504
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: a street corner. She's pretty, and you're like, okay, yeah,

505
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: and she's I mean, I I think she's a good

506
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: looking woman, but she's not. If by today's standards she

507
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: can only she would be sort of frumpy. Let's be honest,

508
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: we have such a twisted version. I ignore it entirely.

509
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: I think some people are absolutely beautiful that people are

510
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: like really, I'm like, oh, completely, so I don't care

511
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: what the standards of beauty are these days. And think

512
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: about it, like if a lot of times people's attractiveness

513
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: is so tied to how they see themselves and carry themselves.

514
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 1: So she's got this confidence. She comes in She's like,

515
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: give me a beefsteak and drop pants and they're like, wow, whatever.

516
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: So I think that that's probably contributing to and she did.

517
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: She did, she had good style. I mean, growing up

518
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: in the South, this is how I learned about this

519
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: is growing by the South. There were a lot of

520
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: women who these days people call them big women, right,

521
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: But like those women, they carried themselves, they thought of

522
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: themselves as sexy. So I grew up seeing men just

523
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: be like, oh man, she's amazing. So it was a

524
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: total disconnect between the TV and what I saw in reality.

525
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: So I've always recognized that it's it's like, you know,

526
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: this sexiness is an energy more than a physicality, right

527
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: when you see especially in the United States, because when

528
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: you're talking about TV versus reality, we have TV shows

529
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: about oh, an ordinary like I'm just a paramedic or whatever,

530
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: and they no one looks like an ordinary person, Like

531
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: they're all just like tooled up and they're all just models. Yeah,

532
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: And then you watch commercial television shows from other parts

533
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 1: of the of the world, and people look like real

534
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: people and they're attractive and they're interesting in dynamic and

535
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: we kind of lose out because we want to play

536
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: with paper dolls in our visits. Whatever, let's take a break.

537
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: I'm tired of this. I'm going to reveal the identity

538
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: of this daring bandit when we come back, all right. So,

539
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: when we left off, pretty pants bandit was caught red

540
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: handed after sticking up a butcher's shop and trying to

541
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: leave its proprietor in a pantsless stupor, surrounded by sides

542
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: of beef and charts explaining the cuts of meat. She

543
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: was arrested taking a jail. Who was this mysterious spitfire?

544
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: I need to know more? She told the cops. Her

545
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: name was Marie Baker. I don't believe that years old.

546
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: As it turns out, the pistol pack and mama was

547
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: actually a oh mama. She had two kids, she'd been

548
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: married twice. She claimed that her kids lived with their father,

549
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: but she refused to identify the father at all. I

550
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't say who he was, where he was now old

551
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: Betty or other gal. She's thirty years old. She's Marie's roommate.

552
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: She said she had no idea the robbery was being planned,

553
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: and apparently it was just along for the beefsteak ride.

554
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: I came here for the deli meats. She exactly. However,

555
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: all of the victims, not just Thomas and Henry, identified

556
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: her as being one of the other assailants. Yeah, I'm

557
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: saying that girl, come on now, she's trying to play

558
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: it out. Like you know, it's so frustrating when you

559
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: want to go furnish your shopping with your housemate, she

560
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: winds up robbing the place. Then you go with her

561
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: to get some springs, and then is this what you

562
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: just do? I just wanted to hit up the deli

563
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: with her first sandwich. All of a sudden we're in

564
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: another armed robbery. I'm telling you, girl, you need because

565
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: people would understand your paying. Betty's like, just want to

566
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 1: get meat. She suddenly stuck up the place. What am

567
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: I supposed to do? Walk out with my beefsteak? Betty's

568
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: not Betty's not committed to her bit, and so I

569
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: think that's why she's not seen as an attractive one.

570
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: Oh interesting. You know she's not saying, yeah I did

571
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: it and I'll do it again. Yeah, she's not coming

572
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: in hut, Yeah right, like it literally coming in hut.

573
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: What like coming in, I've never mind, okay. Um, basically,

574
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: Betty's got bad luck and bad life choices. Bad Betty.

575
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: The other guy, James says he's innocent. Marie said, I

576
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: don't even know who that guy is. He wasn't I

577
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: didn't bring coming to the store with him. But he's

578
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: got a really long record and he's identified not just

579
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: by the Butchers, but all the other victims. So he's

580
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: arrested too, and all of the victims who had reported

581
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: their pantsings to the police. They're brought down to make

582
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: statements and identify all of the purpose in the lineup,

583
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 1: and for a switch to make the purpose stick off

584
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: their ever, that would be amazing. So the press right

585
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: there loving this. They're trying to dig into her past

586
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,240
Speaker 1: and they're able to find records from three years prior

587
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: when she was arrested for killing her sister in law, right,

588
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: but she was acquitted acquitted, So that's not our one

589
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: percent murder up in here. Yeah, I don't know what

590
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: happened to the sister in law. May she rest, but

591
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 1: it wasn't on Betty according to the law. Well it's

592
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: it was We're murder adjacent right now, But I would

593
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: argue that maybe maybe they didn't find the right records.

594
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 1: Either way, she was acquitted, basically not guilty. He who

595
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,240
Speaker 1: does not feel me is not real to me, therefore

596
00:34:55,320 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't exist. So poof Vemus, etcetera, etcetera. As I

597
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 1: was saying, though, I'm not even sure the press had

598
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: the right lady. More on that in a second. You know,

599
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,720
Speaker 1: like my bars, I feel like your bars. I was impressed.

600
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: I didn't expect them so. At her arraignment in front

601
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: of magistrate Michael A. Ford, just like Michael A. Fox.

602
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: Did you know that's Michael J. Fox's real name. What

603
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 1: Michael J. Fox changed his middle name. Yeah, Michael A. Fox.

604
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: He changed his middle initial, not even his name. Well,

605
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: because Michael A. Fox was already like in the actress,

606
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: so he became Michael J. Fox. But he was like

607
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: Michael A. Fox, kind like Kermit the Stallion. So Michael A. Ford,

608
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: he was magistrate at the Morrisania Courts. It's a great name.

609
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 1: It's more. Sania Baker stands up to appear, but she

610
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: holds her hat in front of her face, kind of

611
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: like Michael Jackson about to just bust it out. Got

612
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: her hat in front of her face, and the judge says,

613
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: put down your hat. I want to see what you

614
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: look like. He's got the voice too. Well, here's my thing, right,

615
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 1: So I'm reading these and then every time I read

616
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: it over, I'm imagining it in a different line delivery.

617
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: So put down your hat. I want to see what

618
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: you look like. Let's do it the third delivery. This

619
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 1: time you haven't eaten lunch. Put down your hat. I

620
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,359
Speaker 1: want to see what you look like. Good. That was good.

621
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: One more time, just like well no, so then she

622
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: baker right, she says, but I don't want my picture taken,

623
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: and she gestures over to the newspaper photographers in the courtroom.

624
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 1: She could also be like another line reading like she

625
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: could be mousey like I don't want me picture taking

626
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 1: or what I'm my favorite but just like from the

627
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: depths of Hell, and they're like whoa, Like here's this

628
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 1: like sultry gal walking up your They're like, okay, now

629
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 1: I see why you got them all to take their

630
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: pants off. You're terrifying. So she says she doesn't want

631
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,879
Speaker 1: her picture take again, and it's like just pointing over

632
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: at all the photographers, and the judge says, you don't

633
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:10,439
Speaker 1: deserve any consideration. Oh that's cold. Yeah, because he's like, look,

634
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: you're out here, you're robbing, taking men's pants from their muddies.

635
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: You've got your hat over your face like a clown.

636
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 1: Come on, pull it together, Betty. But she's not but

637
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,919
Speaker 1: doesn't deserve any consideration. That's just cold, judge. The whole

638
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: point is to be considered by them and to be right.

639
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: You're not guilty, yeah, until you're consider you not guilty. Okay, Yeah,

640
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: I'm just not in that court, not with Michael J.

641
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: Fox up in there. So she gets she didn't establish

642
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: a collegial attitude in the courtroom. Then she did not.

643
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: She gets sentenced to three years in the clink. Yeah,

644
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: she didn't even carry a gun in these robberies. She did. No,

645
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: this isn't Betty. This is the central girl slipped up

646
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:03,720
Speaker 1: and confused. No, it's Marie. So she the pretty pants bandit.

647
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: She's the one with the hat over the face. She's

648
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,879
Speaker 1: the one who's like, no, don't take my picture. Oh

649
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: I was picturing that for Betty. Dude, you're telling me

650
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 1: Marie was the one cover in her face. That Marie

651
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: is the one pretty pants herself is the one saying

652
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: you get none of this pretty. Yeah, she's like, you

653
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,360
Speaker 1: gotta pay for this, but she doesn't want yet and

654
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 1: don't don't put my picture. But the other thing too,

655
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: is that it's like, if she's not revealing a lot

656
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: about her past, what if the pictures get in the papers?

657
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 1: Don't look And part of that comes before it turns

658
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: out that her real name was likely Rose Duranti. Yes,

659
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: and Marie Baker was just an alias. I mean that

660
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 1: makes sense. But she's hanging out with like a couple

661
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: other Italians, like she's likely an immigrant or from you know,

662
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: but she uses the most like basic Marie Baker. So anyway,

663
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: she doesn't want to be identified too bad. Her pictures

664
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: in the paper all over the place, Um, but she

665
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: has this alias. I'm not or if the criminal records

666
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,240
Speaker 1: for that acquittal that the press found were for Baker

667
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 1: or Durante. Mhmm. Yeah. And here's the other thing. I

668
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: don't know. If you you read a lot of old

669
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 1: paper archives stuff like I do newspapers, I'm a huge

670
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: newspapers dot com person. It's great for research and it's

671
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,479
Speaker 1: also great for falling down rabbit holes while you're looking

672
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 1: something up and then one story over in the paper

673
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: exactly wild stuff. So, uh, what I've noted is that

674
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 1: they're not particularly kind and careful about last names, particularly

675
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 1: if they are not Anglo last names. So her, she

676
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: could have had all sorts of different spellings. It could

677
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: have been something close to Durranty, it could have been like,

678
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: you know, other other spellings whatever. And you know, I've

679
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: been trying to figure out, like how these journalists traced it.

680
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: They're not answering my calls. No excuse, guys, but I

681
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 1: don't know how they're if you just go down to

682
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: the precinct and they're like, pull up this or the courthouse,

683
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: pull up these records, and here's how I think they

684
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,919
Speaker 1: spell the name. Whatever. So she's in jail. She tells

685
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 1: the prison matrons that she robbed these places in order

686
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 1: to support her younger siblings, not her kids. Her stories

687
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: all over the place, siblings, kids, Baker, Duranti, Potato, Potato.

688
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 1: She does not have a healthy relationship with the truth.

689
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: She does not. She used to see a therapist. She

690
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: was not the most original gal either. Well, like about

691
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: five years before all of this hullabaloo, there was a

692
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 1: group of guys that were in Brooklyn holding up drug

693
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 1: stores and making pharmacists take off their pants. So I'm

694
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: thinking maybe she got a clue from that. They but

695
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: their thing is they'd go into these drug stores and

696
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,839
Speaker 1: they'd make the pharmacists take their pants off, and then

697
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: they'd tie them in a really tight knotted the pharmacists

698
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: both the pants and they throw the hands on the

699
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: top shelf and then run away. So it wasn't like, oh,

700
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: I just got a fumble to get my pants off.

701
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: I gotta pull a step ladder over, I gotta climb

702
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,320
Speaker 1: up now my pants are in a knot and dusty,

703
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: because it's way you know, come on, do you know

704
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: that you can if you're ever like drowning, you can.

705
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 1: You're wearing Levi's jeans or blue jeans tight with a

706
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: tight weave, and you can turn that into a flotation

707
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: device by tying the legs together, gather gathering some air

708
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: in the open waist, and then shoving that underwater and

709
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: the air will be held by the jeans. That's good

710
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: to know. Yeah, just in case, you know, you do

711
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: reminded me of tying the pants. It's like, you know,

712
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 1: that's actually helpful. Sometimes that's really good. Not just for

713
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: robbing farmers. Okay, but this brings us back around to

714
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 1: me wearing soft pants. I'm screwed. Yeah, exactly. This is

715
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to tell you. Soft pants aren't gonna

716
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 1: save you, girl. No, on all of my trips out

717
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 1: to the open ocean where I get capsized on my own. Yes,

718
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: I'm in a little you know. This is why I

719
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: wear miner's pants. Yeah, you wear those ones that are

720
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 1: made of like fire hose material. Yes, exactly. Always ready underwear,

721
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 1: always ready with the Kevlar andy pants. Have I told

722
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 1: you about my underpant's dream? No? You had an underpants stream? Yeah,

723
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 1: and I think it I might be for telling the future.

724
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: And that's why I like to tell people about it,

725
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 1: because if it comes true, then I am on record

726
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 1: as having foretold it. I had a dream. I was

727
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 1: in a store and I looked over and there was

728
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: a big display, you know, like those Haynes underwear where

729
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 1: it's like women's briefs, and they're like it's six in

730
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 1: a pack and it's wrapped in class. Let's pretend I

731
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: do right. You wear them all the time. So I'm

732
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 1: in the store and I look over and it's Dennis

733
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: Miller branded Tennis Miller branded women's Underheard, and it had

734
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: like a little picture and had a little picture of

735
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: him in the corner of the package and his signature

736
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: on Dennis Miller's signature brand. Yeah, but they were like

737
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 1: really ladies, but they were really like modest, like Granny panty. Yes,

738
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: the yeah cotton like blue, but a little bit shorter

739
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 1: Dennis Miller brand. And is it like also written as

740
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: Dennis Miller in cursive on like the butt, like you know,

741
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: like the old I don't know. I didn't in my

742
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 1: in my dream, I didn't open the package and inspect them.

743
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: I just noted it and was like, oh, that's interesting.

744
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: I need to get some of those. So I feel like,

745
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: if it happens, then Brandon is amazing, right, So if

746
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: it happens, come back, yeah, my business manager, I'm just

747
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 1: going to manifest it into the universe, because who doesn't

748
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 1: want the with like obscure references on the back of

749
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 1: the package or there's like instead of a tag, it's

750
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: like a fortune cookie thing with a weird Dennis Miller

751
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 1: obscure reference. Come on, come at me an idea machine,

752
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: especially in my sleep. Yeah, if you want underwear that

753
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,600

Speaker 1: these guys in the pharmacy though, aside from my Dennis

756
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,280
Speaker 1: Miller pants come back around what I was talking about.

757
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 1: They try and keep up here, buddy, They pharmacy guys.

758
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 1: They realize they're passing up good pants by throwing them

759
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: up on the shelves, so they started stealing the pants

760
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,479
Speaker 1: and the money and the drugs. Her waisting right here. Boys,

761
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. One of the guys, one of the

762
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 1: guys in that gang, his street name was Chick Baltimore.

763
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 1: That's a dope name, right, It's kind of amazing. I

764
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: really I legit like that Chick Baltimore. I'm not going

765
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 1: to tell you anything more about them because they were

766
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: really terrible people, Okay, but I would like unless maybe

767
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 1: I'm terribly wrong about this, maybe Chick Baltimore is not

768
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: what I want. But could you imagine like a pool

769
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 1: cube with like a Chick Baltimore signature on it, like

770
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,439
Speaker 1: a Chick Baltimore branded, kind of like your signature, Dennis Miller.

771

774
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: we're an idea factory first and foremost here, I think

775
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,800
Speaker 1: that's what we excel at. This is what I just

776
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,319
Speaker 1: hope everyone understands that. This is what people are talking

777
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 1: about when they refer to the grind. This is what

778
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 1: this is it, this is whis is. We're making magic.

779
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: These guys are just a side note though, in the

780
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 1: tail of this beautiful wildcat who went guns blazon, handsless, lawless, free.

781
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,399
Speaker 1: It was glorious while it landed, while it landed, well

782
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 1: it lasted. It was also glorious when it landed. The

783
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,439
Speaker 1: pants were glorious when they landed on the top shelf.

784
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: Just amazing, beautiful. Thank you so much for that. What's

785
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: your ridiculous takeaway here? My ridiculous takeaway is apparently my

786
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 1: love of nudity would protect me from larceny. Never saw

787
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 1: that coming. Yeah, if they came in and they're like, Saren,

788
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:45,360
Speaker 1: give me all your money and then they take you,

789
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 1: make you take your pants and pants off, I'll take

790
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 1: my pants off, but I gotta keep my money. They're

791
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: like no. I'm like, okay, you can take my money,

792
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 1: but I got to take my pants off. Like sir,

793
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 1: you just confuse them, you baffle them, and then they

794
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 1: said they rob you and they leave and you stripped

795
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 1: down and chase them dudes, and I joined the gang

796
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 1: and all a sudden, I'm like, yeah, let's go take

797
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: more pants, Like, sir, please put some pants on. There's

798
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 1: so many pants out there for the taken. No. We

799
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,760
Speaker 1: we would take other people's pants off. We don't. Just okay,

800
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,919
Speaker 1: I'm waiting the gang guys. Here's what strikes me most

801
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 1: is that they were consistently citing the reason for not

802
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 1: chasing the bandits is that they weren't wearing pants, not

803
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 1: because she had a weapon. Yeah nothing, guns be damned.

804
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 1: I had no pants on. Someone might see. And she

805
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 1: gives off the vibe like she's not afraid to use

806
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 1: this blower on him, Like she's gonna just I'll ventilate

807
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 1: your son. What does she want sprinkle them? No, it's

808
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:38,560
Speaker 1: you know, I can't go down the street and a

809
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 1: superman under ruth. I don't know if they had those,

810
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 1: I don't think so it's ridiculous. It's my kind of

811
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: ridiculous because like, I would not chase after someone if

812
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: I was just wearing ma Chonis unless it was life

813
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,000
Speaker 1: or death. Like if someone took my nephew or my dog, Okay,

814
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: then I'll run after him pants okay, beneath. If they

815
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: take my money, whatever, I don't care. Okay, if I

816
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,840
Speaker 1: don't have any any enjoy your two dollars someone else's

817
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 1: money that you were holding. I'll figure out a way

818
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 1: to pay them back. What if they took someone else's like, um,

819
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 1: I don't know favorite Venus fly trap that they had

820
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 1: asked you to hold. It's irreplaceable. Sorry, you're like, sorry,

821
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 1: I ain't running. I'm just in my honeyes, I'm just

822
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 1: in my mind. I'm like, okay, are you trying to

823
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: think of all the ways that you can get me
