00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 2: listening who would have been in this situation A headline

4
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 2: four year old boy accidentally buys three thousand dollars worth

5
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 2: of SpongeBob square Pants popsicles. Now US adults can refer

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 2: to it as an accident. He knew what he was doing.

7
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: He's ordering them. It wants them. Of course you're going

8
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: to do that if you've got access to an Amazon

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 2: account or his mum's Amazon account. Four year old Noah

10
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: from Brooklyn ordered more than three and a half thousand

11
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 2: dollars worth of SpongeBob SquarePants popsicles from Amazon. That's fifty

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 2: one cases of popsicles.

13
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: Isn't there an alert on Amazon's end to go like.

14
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: Hey, there should be?

15
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 3: There should be uncommon purchase.

16
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: With eighteen bars to a case that comes to nine

17
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: hundred and eighteen popsicles. This photo of him edoks as

18
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 2: happy as a seven four year old would be. Who

19
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 2: knows he's got he's having his popsicle there SpongeBob one

20
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: and he knows he's got to know that no hundred

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 2: and seventeen to go.

22
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 1: He is the happiest person in the world. Look at that.

23
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: That is what enlightenment looks like.

24
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 2: Bud It never looked that happy in any of those

25
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: statues because he wasn't sitting on nine.

26
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: Hundred and seventeen popsicles. Noah's mum obviously.

27
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,919
Speaker 2: Took a different view to this, who is a social worker,

28
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 2: and said Amazon would not let her return the popsicles

29
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 2: because they were melting. However, when people heard about this online,

30
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 2: people all over the world have paid for them.

31
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 3: Oh that's honest.

32
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 1: She started a little go fumby campaign hoping that might

33
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: chip in a bit. They paid for them. So no,

34
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: the lesson he's learned here is strangers will cover this.

35
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, he hasn't learned a lesson.

36
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: Really, I know.

37
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: He's learned something. I wonder if mums and Dan had

38
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: done this before. Where your kids these days? If they're

39
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: borrowing your phone and you know, years ago, I remember

40
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: the only chance she had of mum giving you some

41
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: money to buy some extra out sody pocket money was

42
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: going to delve into the dreaded handbag.

43
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: Where get my handbag and bring me my purse?

44
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 2: Gim is like the magical purse with that strange sort

45
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: of metallic class Jim, and that you don't get them

46
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 2: like that anymore. Now they've got a little pop sort

47
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 2: of thing all just press it and that opens up.

48
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: That was so full as well.

49
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: So the coins jeans, they just give you a couple

50
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 2: of ruballs whatever, a couple of shekels and some coins.

51
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: My mum's also had so many stamps, like yes, like

52
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 3: she could have seen five hundred legs at the drop

53
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 3: of her house.

54
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 2: Booked like fifty stamps, and always like tissues in there

55
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,679
Speaker 2: as well, and pills. There's like a it's like the

56
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 2: Chronicles of Narnia if you fell intolap purse. But now

57
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: nowadays I've got access to bank accounts or credit cards.

58
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: There's one touch ordering chip and pains so that if

59
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 2: this has happened to any mums and dads, we've got

60
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: my kids if they know what my Amazon password is, right,

61
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 2: and but they have to ask me before order anything, right,

62
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 2: And they have pocket money and stuff like that. But

63
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: sometimes they want to get something now and they go, well,

64
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: that's no pocket money for the next four weeks, and

65
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: they realize Captain Cows is not going to remember that

66
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: next wed you running. I actually think chill defrauding me

67
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 2: right now. Last week I went to pay for something.

68
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: It was so embarrassed, and the lady was saying how

69
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 2: much she enjoyed the show, and they went, oh, that

74
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 2: money and I went, no, no, I haven't. I know

75
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: that this credit card is absolutely fine. They went, have

76
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 2: you bought some Dr Martin shoes?

77
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,320

78
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,000

Speaker 4: called Rodblocks of costumes and all sorts of odd things.

84

Speaker 3: That's the in purchases in a month.

85
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: That is purchases because you don't notice the one buck here,

86
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 2: the one buck there, and so there suddenly eighteen hundred

87
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: just under two thousand dollars.

88
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, over over three months. And I did have monitoring

89
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 4: on the credit card. But because it wasn't over a

90
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 4: certain amount, it didn't pop up.

91
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: They knew under the radar. They fly under the radar.

00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: What's happened to you? What did the kids do?

112
00:04:59,440 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 7: Well?

113
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,719

116
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 8: He memorized my credit card details and but here's the

117
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 8: clincher is with the votaphone recharges, which was around five

118
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,239
Speaker 8: hundred bucks. He spent it in about two or three days.

119

123
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,039

Speaker 2: of headbands.

146
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,159

Speaker 1: do with them? All?

148
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 9: Oh? I canceled to cancel the order.

Speaker 8: No, no, I did.

151
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 9: It took a while, took a fair bit of fighting that.

152
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 9: Eventually we canceled the order. They didn't charge me.

153
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:49,560

Speaker 1: The Christian Connell Show podcast.

181
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 2: We're just talking earlier on the show how I put

182
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 2: the wrong bin out this week, So I've got to

183
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: take two weeks worth of recycling to my local tip.

184
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 2: When you're a kid, I still love going to the tip.

185
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 2: Mean your mumble dad, you could just turn up there

186
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 2: and just bring stuff back. So tonight we want to

187
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 2: know what did your dad bring home from the tip?

188
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: Tips? To me?

189
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: Right the prime time to enjoy a tip as a kid,

190
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 2: My sort of big bonding thing was my dad was

191
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 2: once a month we go to local tip and yeah,

192
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 2: we were just going because you could just hang out

193
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 2: there and they weren't like they are now where everything's

194
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 2: in separate sort of hoppers and recycling wasn't a thing

195
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 2: in the eighties, so it was all just right, so

196
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 2: you like like TVs.

197
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 3: That's how I remember it as a kid, is just

198
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 3: mountains separate the metals separate this and that. It's just

199
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 3: like everything in a big mountain, and you're allowed to go.

200
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: No one knew, you know, the damage you're doing.

201
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 2: Like they were just that burning tires and stuff that

202
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: even David apprigs into it. Back the end of the day,

203
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 2: no one need any different, whereas now it's all it's

204
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: all separated. You've got to go completely different bit to

205
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 2: the recycling. Can't just wander around. And Jack said that

206
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: obviously it's an exciting thing to go these days. The

207
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 2: tip you can get trash is not the time if

208
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: a ball in this story.

209
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 3: But this last year the other thing that I tried

210
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 3: to get, but Bianca said no. I called her from

211
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: the tip and said, someone's got rid of rolls and

212
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 3: rolls of turf and it's just like grass that's rolled up.

213
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: The guy from the castle. Now we might need it

214
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 1: one day, because I know.

215
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 3: It's expensive to buy and transport. I was like, should

216
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 3: we bring this home, keep it wet like they do

217
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: with free Willie, and when we need it, we can.

218
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,239
Speaker 1: Roll it, store it just somewhere in the backyards.

219
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 3: That's why she said no.

220
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: Rio was just telling us, what did you don't bring

221
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: home from the tip? Dad brought home an eel? Really,

222
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: where did you keep the eel in the toilet? So

223
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: we had a fish pond, like a big fish pond.

224
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: We got cot co that no, not.

225
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 3: Fancy enough for coy. But the eel like obviously just

226
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 3: ate all the fish. Like a month later, were like, oh,

227
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 3: there's no fish because the eel d all the fish.

228
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: And did he find it in the tub or was

229
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 3: it just swimming through the trash.

230
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: I'm not sure.

231
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 2: I've just been swimming through the trash, not feral animals

232
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 2: like that patching your old man.

233
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: Never bring anything back to remember my dad?

234
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 2: When I once brought back, come if there was a

235
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 2: very nice wicker chair there, which my mom still has.

236
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 2: My mom's obsessed with wicker, right, she's just she could

237
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 2: turn that house and.

238
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: Build it out of wicker.

239
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 6: Wicker.

240
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 2: Mom, she actually no, right, we were her sister's funeral

241
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 2: years ago, and you know her mum's gettle more. But

242
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 2: she goes, you know, you need to know what plans

243
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: you know I want to happen. I said, Mom, there's

244
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 2: nothing wrong with you, okay, just because we're at a funeral.

245
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: It's not something you can catch death. You're okay, and

246
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: I got feeling you will outlive all of us. But anyway,

247
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 1: she goes bear me in a wicker coffin a week,

248
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: it's not a thing.

249
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 3: No, you can get them.

250
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: Yes, to get her Mother's day? You mentioned it. I

251
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: pay attention. This got your wicked coffee.

252
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 3: It looks like a giant picture as it.

253
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 2: No, anytime you feel it, well, go and lie down

254
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 2: in it. Just make it easy for everyone. Just go

255
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: and have a big old nap in there.

256
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: Where'd you get a wicked coffin from?

257
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 2: You know?

258
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 3: I have seen them before. Now we're all environmentally aware

259
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 3: and everything. You can get all the.

260
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: Way she said and everything and all that stuff.

261
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 3: But you can get wicker basket coffins.

262
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: You can get all sorts.

263
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 2: Hang on, it can't be a basket. I can't curl

264
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 2: my MoMA. Can't just point out my mum is alive.

265
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 2: I'm speculating about her death. That is hopefully a long

266
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,359
Speaker 2: way off. Not fit my mum in a basket.

267
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,920
