Speaker 1: I reckon, I am in for a pretty good Christmas.
Speaker 2: And the reason I say that is I'm a big
Speaker 2: believer in karma, and yesterday I just did like the
Speaker 2: deed of all deeds. So I was just walking in
Speaker 2: my suburb down towards the beach yesterday, and as I
Speaker 2: was walking, I had Delilah, my dog, and she stopped
Speaker 2: to do a poop, which she does out in the
Speaker 2: front of someone's house. And as she pooped, and this
Speaker 2: is the only reason I saw it. As she pooped,
Speaker 2: I saw like there was like a driveway and then
Speaker 2: there were these two big beautiful like columns like posts
Speaker 2: out of the front of the driveway, and there was
Speaker 2: someone had obviously dropped their wallet and it was on
Speaker 2: the post. So like someone had dropped their wallet and
Speaker 2: some others Americans obviously picked it up and put it
Speaker 2: on the post.
Speaker 3: Ye right, Okay, so it's just sitting there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, beautiful leather wallet.
Speaker 2: So I opened it up and it had unfortunately no cash,
Speaker 2: but I had jokes. But he had a license from
Speaker 2: Byron Bay and I was like, oh, someone's obviously here traveling.
Speaker 1: It was like a young looking guy. It's like someone's
Speaker 1: lost it.
Speaker 2: Like the worst when you drop a wallet on a
Speaker 2: night out or anytime, like your whole life is ruined
Speaker 2: because everything's linked to it.
Speaker 1: They can you have to cancel.
Speaker 4: Cards, especially when you're not local, and you can't just
Speaker 4: go and pop it in their letterbox exactly.
Speaker 1: Because I was like, I'll drop it off to them.
Speaker 2: Bar and Bass I was like, oh, so anyway, I thought,
Speaker 2: you know what, let's test the power of social media.
Speaker 1: So I took a photo.
Speaker 2: Of his license and I obviously blocked out all the
Speaker 2: crucial information like the address and the date of birth
Speaker 2: and license number, but I had his photo in his
Speaker 2: name because I had tried to find him on Instagram
Speaker 2: and it wouldn't come up like I just type his
Speaker 2: name in. So I was like, hey, guys, what are
Speaker 2: the odds who knows who this is? If you know him,
Speaker 2: to contact me, if you've seen him, let me know.
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 4: I saw, yeah, I mean, once again, good Samaritan.
Speaker 2: It happened so quickly, I cannot tell you how many
Speaker 2: people somehow knew who this was, like connections, connections, this
Speaker 2: is my mate, I know him, he's a friend of
Speaker 2: my friend. Like it was like one of those crime
Speaker 2: scenes with all the stream it goes.
Speaker 5: To the name.
Speaker 4: So were people just like messaging you in your DM
Speaker 4: saying this is the person and then tagging him.
Speaker 3: So that you could find his profile.
Speaker 2: Yes, But then I got a miss from him and
Speaker 2: it was like, hey, so many people have forwarded me this.
Speaker 1: Thank Like I cannot thank you enough for this.
Speaker 2: I'm on the phone to the police like this is
Speaker 2: a nightmare, like it was such a disaster, and I
Speaker 2: was like, so chroughed.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, oh, Britte.
Speaker 2: And he's like, I'm so stoked. Most people would steal
Speaker 2: and I was like, well, you didn't have any cash.
Speaker 2: But so I ended up getting his number and I
Speaker 2: was like, tell me where you live and I dropped
Speaker 2: it back to him nice. So I feel like and
Speaker 2: he was like, I can't thank you enough, Like I've
Speaker 2: been having a really bad time lately and this was
Speaker 2: really going to ruin my day.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I did a great thing. Don't want
Speaker 1: to brag, but b the power of social media is amazing.
Speaker 3: I mean, you only ever.
Speaker 4: Hear the negative stories from social media. I feel like
Speaker 4: this is a rare case where it's used for good,
Speaker 4: but they exist don't they.
Speaker 1: Well, we have tracked him down.
Speaker 3: His name is Jack.
Speaker 1: What do you mean tracked him down?
Speaker 3: We found him through the power of social media.
Speaker 4: No, we knew about this story, Brit you shared it
Speaker 4: all on socials. But then also Jack messaged us add
Speaker 4: the pickup and said, there's actually a little bit more
Speaker 4: to the story.
