Good morning, guys, or good afternoon, good evening, whatever time it is where you're listening. Welcome back to another episode of the Weekend Rundown. This is your host, daniel.
Speaker 2:And I'm your host, drew. We really appreciate all the listeners that come back every week. We kind of had a little down dip last week, but we're going to make back up with it this week with a really good show. So we're going to jump right into our first segment, august 8th. Past moments reported presently with Daniel Go ahead.
Speaker 1:Alright. So August 8th 1844, brigham Young was chosen to lead the Mormon Church. Brigham Young becomes the leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints after founder Joseph Smith is murdered by an angry mob. During his time as the Church's leader, young led 148 Mormon pioneers from Illinois to the Salt Lake Valley, where he founded Salt Lake City. He then established what is now known as Brigham Young University.
Speaker 2:So I've never been to Brigham Young University, but I guess people appreciate that he started that. They're the Cougars I believe Are you Cougars.
Speaker 1:It's crazy. You know that that's awesome. So 1883, august 8th, emiliano Zapeta is born, and I'm learning about him with you right now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, both of us are.
Speaker 1:He is a Mexican revolutionary. Emiliano Zapeta Salazar was born in the Mexican state of Morales to a peasant family. He got to start as a revolutionary at the age of 18, when he was arrested for protesting with other peasants in his village against a large estate that had taken over their lands.
Speaker 2:So basically he's trying to be like this is ours and don't take it back.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he sounded like one of the very first activists in Mexico?
Speaker 2:In Mexico, I mean, he's trying to just keep his people free. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Zapeta fought for land to be redistributed to peasants during and after the Mexican Revolution. Okay, yeah, so he's super important. That was shot to death by enemy soldiers in 1919 at the age of 39.
Speaker 2:Brr.
Speaker 1:Brutal.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean he accomplished a lot in 39 years. Yeah, he did good.
Speaker 1:He did good first country and first people 1963, august 8th, england's Great Train Robbery. The Southwest Gang pulls off the largest train robbery in British history. Southwest Gang 2.6 million pounds sterling, the equivalent of over $70 million today. Ho, bruce Reynolds, gordon Goody, ronald Edwards and Charlie Wilson joined forces with a dozen other criminals known as the South Coast Raiders, to board the train, beat the conductor and get away with the massive loot and what would be one of the biggest heists in history.
Speaker 2:That's a lot of money, man.
Speaker 1:Think all the way here was it 1963?. Yeah, it's some decent cars and stuff. You could have been balling back then.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, you definitely could have had fur coats and nice cars and I mean it wasn't like hitting robbery 50 years earlier and just getting like a bunch of model.
Speaker 1:T's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or like 100 years before you're like I'm gonna get some horses with this Exactly. I'm gonna get some great stallions.
Speaker 2:Or like in the Faro days. You're just like you get some money and you're like I gotta go do a whole other country and buy a bunch of stuff. I don't even understand. It's silk in their camels, but this is great.
Speaker 1:I'm just gonna build pyramids?
Speaker 2:All right.
Speaker 1:So 1974, august 8th, richard Nixon resigned.
Speaker 2:I kind of liked him as a president, even though I was alive.
Speaker 1:I wonder why he resigned.
Speaker 2:We all know.
Speaker 1:President Richard Nixon announces his intention to resign. After his involvement in the Watergate scandal Facing impeachment, Nixon stepped down from the presidency to start the process of healing in America.
Speaker 2:What a guy.
Speaker 1:Pretty smart of him to do. He famously flashed two victory peace signs while boarding a helicopter to leave the White House the following day like a gangster, and you know what he said, what did he say I am not a crook Is that what he said.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I am not a crook and did the peace sign thing.
Speaker 1:His vice president, gerald Ford, was sworn in and later pardoned Nixon for any crimes he may have committed while in office.
Speaker 2:Of course that's why he was like hey, hey, bro, bro, I'm gonna step down and you are gonna just pardon me and you're gonna become a president.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I feel like if you pardon the guy that you succeeded, you should immediately be freaking impeached. Impached or forced to resign, indicted or something.
Speaker 2:Something. But no, here was the deal, because it was what you did. This day was 84? 74?, 1974. So in 74, bro, he just walked right up to me and was like hey, here's the deal, the news going around that I'm gonna be impeached. I was involved with that scandal, so I'm going to resign and you are going to pardon me, and then you'll become the first president to well, maybe not the first president, but one of the first presidents to get put into office not by being voted for.
Speaker 1:And then if I was him, I'd be like I'm not gonna pardon you and you're going to resign anyway. And he was about to face prosecution.
Speaker 2:Good luck. And then he was probably like we've been friends since we're sex charting.
Speaker 1:And that's the silver lining.
Speaker 2:And there it is.
Speaker 1:And boom goes the dynamite. All right, so 2003,. This has got to be the most recent Like today in history we've ever done past moments, reported presently with Daniel, that we've ever done. Yes.
Speaker 2:That's the new name, that's I can't.
Speaker 1:It's a tongue twist.
Speaker 2:It is, but like it's just some stuff.
Speaker 1:I'll get good at it one day, all right, but 2003 August 8th, serial killer Shelly Nadek was arrested. Serial killer and mom, shelly Nadek, is arrested in Washington. Known as a selfless family, the Nadeks would always open their home to strangers. Unfortunately, those that stayed in the Nadek home rarely made it out.
Speaker 2:Does wait in. Washington, yes, washington state, I believe that's like I thought people over there were all nice and stuff.
Speaker 1:Not everybody is nice everywhere.
Speaker 2:I mean, I know that.
Speaker 1:But I know. I mean I'm sure there's some people in. Mexico that don't even like taco, so we can't like just live these stereotypes?
Speaker 2:Whoa, that's a different kind of thing, but okay, no, it's not, it's the same.
Speaker 1:It's the exact same. Washington people are nice. I'm sure there's some assholes in Washington, isn't that where, like one of those horror movies, jeepers Creepers is supposed to be at.
Speaker 2:I mean, I wasn't very nice. It's a movie, but maybe.
Speaker 1:I think it was based on actual events. After suffering abuse themselves at the hands of their own mother, nadek's daughters turned her into the police. They claim that their mother had not only abused them, but tortured and murdered the guests that stayed in their home. Police searched the Nadek home and found copious evidence of her crimes. Shelly Nadek, along with her husband, were arrested. Shelly Nadek received 20 years in prison and was released on November 8th 2022. I want to know how many people she killed.
Speaker 2:So she probably killed a lot, but I can't be that many. Hold on one second Wait. You don't think it was a lot of people that she killed?
Speaker 1:Um no, I just looked it up, it's actually only two. Wow, only two. Okay, so yeah and she was actually already released. How long did she serve? She got sentenced for 22 years but ended up doing 18. She was charged with first-degree murder. It took a plea deal that resulted in lesser charges, so I believe it was first-degree manslaughter and second-degree murder.
Speaker 2:Okay, so she, but she like basically did most of her time.
Speaker 1:Yep, she's dubbed America's most evil mother.
Speaker 2:Uh, I don't more than Casey Anthony.
Speaker 1:Oh, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I mean who? Twelve?
Speaker 1:people thought she was innocent.
Speaker 2:Yeah, out of how many? 20? No, it was. How many juries it?
Speaker 1:was 12, right, isn't it a jury of 12? And 12 thought she was innocent. I mean, everybody has to think you're innocent. Oh, no, you can have it split right and then you're innocent. No, because then it's just a hung jury.
Speaker 2:I thought you.
Speaker 1:She was acquitted, so it was all innocent. Everybody voted innocent. I'm not saying she was, I'm just saying oh, I thought you, if 12 out of 12 could think that she is.
Speaker 2:I thought you were saying her original trial Like, not the like.
Speaker 1:No, I'm saying when she murdered her kid, which she did and we know she did.
Speaker 2:So brutal, hell Huh, so brutal, I know but I mean, it's what happened. It is what happened. It's reality.
Speaker 1:Yup, people are brutal, and Casey Anthony's one of them, but we can't prove it, just so we know. I'm not slandering or anything. I don't know, I don't.
Speaker 2:I mean, I can't really prove anything bro.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't, but anyways, let's go ahead and jump into how our weekends went. How was your weekend, drew? Anything interesting happen, any shows. How was my weekend? What did I even do this weekend, bro?
Speaker 2:I don't think so. I just kind of got with my buddy and we did a cool new like Like exercise where we read each other's jokes to each other, you know.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's cool.
Speaker 2:Like we write our jokes down and like it was weird. But it was like the parts that like you're attached to and you think are funny. I like I'm like trying to like give him advice. I'm like no, no, no, deliver it like this, it's funnier. And he does, and I'm like I don't think it's funny still.
Speaker 1:Alright, like other parts, I tried to improve it, but no, but like that's how I made it worse.
Speaker 2:That's how? No, that's how you envision it in your head is like like, oh, he delivered it differently than me. But the funny thing is is the parts that are the funniest that you write in those jokes because, like, I don't ever just give him a one or two line or it's like multiple jokes. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Um, but like um, it's like uh. When he's telling the jokes, some of them are really funny and it's just the stuff that you're writing and he's saying it and it's funny, no matter who says it. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So, um, but yeah, so that was cool, we did that, we hung out, we literally I think I was awake till like freakin' 5.30 in the morning that day, just like writing.
Speaker 1:I bet you, I was there with you. What do you mean? What day was that?
Speaker 2:Friday, saturday I don't even remember, I think, I think Saturday.
Speaker 1:I was up till 6 on Friday, yeah.
Speaker 2:Saturday I fell asleep, yeah, I was, so. I was so tired on Sunday, it was so brutal, but I got a lot of good stuff in and, um, yeah, man, I'm just trying to grind this out, bro, and get some some practice in, you know.
Speaker 1:Posting, my first Posting, my first.
Speaker 2:I posted my first TikTok reel, right? Uh, got my first one out there. And uh, then I got a text from an ex-girlfriend and she goes Uh, you're the next Matt Reif of comedy. So I think oh, you saw my TikTok reel. She goes no, you're just doing comedy in your handsome. And I'm like Thanks, I fuckin' think I'm not even sure You're like way of flirting. Yeah, like cause you're also in a different state, like that's really weird.
Speaker 1:Right, that's Well. At least you're getting some play for your comedic ability. I don't want play from her, and we all know that. I mean that means you're so funny, you pole girls, because you're funny.
Speaker 2:But it transcends. She never even heard one of my jokes, Like she just assumed, oh, she didn't listen to it. That was. The point is that she just knew. I was doing comedy and I thought it was like concurrent with like the TikTok thing. So I was like, oh, you listened to it. She's like no.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Like she didn't even ever listen to any of it and I was like, okay, thanks, I think no thank you, yeah, like you just.
Speaker 1:You can't even click the button.
Speaker 2:Right, Couldn't even click the. The reel is like a minute and 23, like come on, give me 23.
Speaker 1:At least Give me 23 and see if you want the last minute.
Speaker 2:Right, right, a lot of people. So I looked at the algorithm and I got like 33% retention or 35% retention and that's like 5% or 6% higher than normal, but like that's not very good I don't think it's better than normal.
Speaker 1:You got higher in the C, c plus. I'll take a C plus for my first joke.
Speaker 2:Yeah, why not?
Speaker 1:That means it's not funny enough, though, to put into a special no, but it means it's funnier than the joke that I would put out.
Speaker 2:Okay, I'll take that. Thank you, bro.
Speaker 1:You know what?
Speaker 2:Perspective.
Speaker 1:Thank you, I cheers you, but I don't have a Red Bull, which I'm going to go to the fridge and grab a Red Bull real quick. So you have anything else to add for the weekend. I will add some stuff while you're doing that Okay, you don't want to take me a couple seconds?
Speaker 2:So what did I do? I found out I had some problems with my plants. One of them was about to die. I had to give some stuff to bring it back. That basil was like going a little crazy and I didn't like repot it. So, other than that, I had an issue with my car insurance to where, like they wouldn't, there was no way for me to pay and they put me on hold to send me to another person. And I had already been on the phone with these people for 22 minutes and I have anxiety. And in the beginning they suggested, oh, just start a new policy, and like this doesn't matter. And then, but then they were forcing like this. So whenever they transferred me to someone else, I just hung up and went online and started a new policy, and it's just so much easier and I got a better deal.
Speaker 2:It's like self-checkout, yeah and because I got the deal too, I also went and I wrote a joke about my social anxiety and how like I have so much that like they're like hey, we need you to come down to the office and I'm like it's okay, I don't even need that car. Like I got a bike and like there's like fucking like these problems with the climate, so like.
Speaker 1:I'm just gonna help them Push the huffy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like it's fine, like I don't, I'm gonna sell it, like I'll get some money out of it and like my job ain't even that far away like it's only five miles, it's not a big deal.
Speaker 1:Could be six, right.
Speaker 2:That's not the exact joke, but you get what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I get it so.
Speaker 2:Yeah, man. So how was your weekend?
Speaker 1:Well, my weekend I actually did the coolest thing that I've ever done Ah, the coolest catch I've ever done in my life Catch.
Speaker 2:What does that mean? Because you were about, I literally just rolled my ass because you were like, oh, the coolest thing I've ever done. I'm like, oh, you asked me about my weekend and then tell me you did the coolest thing you've ever done in your life.
Speaker 1:Well, what would you want to go after me if I did the coolest thing I've ever done?
Speaker 2:in my life? Well, I guess no.
Speaker 1:Anyway. So I went to Bush Gardens and I went with my family, and usually I can't go on roller coasters because my kids are too small.
Speaker 2:Right, that's good right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but my wife's sister came along. Oh no, she brought her kids, and so my wife had a little help. So I took one of her kids, her oldest kid, Dash. Yeah, I took him, and then I wanted to go on the roller coaster Mon too, which.
Speaker 2:I've been on it, not a fan.
Speaker 1:In case anybody was wondering which I don't think you are it's not by Chikra. It's actually on the opposite side of the park. So if you're looking for it, don't go toward Chikra.
Speaker 2:I feel like there's a story where he went toward Chikra guys. What do you think?
Speaker 1:That's not the story, but yeah, that did happen. And so when we found it, we go on this ride and I'm thinking there's going to be cubbies. Well, I don't know if this is true. I heard cubbies are illegal.
Speaker 2:now I don't know why they would be illegal. What do you mean? Like the lockers.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know why the cubby things would be illegal, or I don't know. That's what somebody said. I find it very highly unlikely.
Speaker 2:That's so silly, because then how do people go on rides when they're by themselves?
Speaker 1:Yeah, but there was no cubbies or anything. So I get on this ride, I sit down a lot of things over me and that's when I see my nephew like a justice shoe but I thought he was taking it off and I was like, oh man, I'm wearing sandals like slides. It's like I got to kick these off. So I just kick them off to the side of the roller coaster. No who?
Speaker 2:was there? Who was there to grab them? Nobody was there, I just kicked them off to the side of the roller coaster. It's the other side though.
Speaker 1:It's the side that I'm going to exit off of.
Speaker 2:You know you went on first.
Speaker 1:No, but I mean you get on one side, you get off the other and you come out. What do you mean? You literally kicked it all the way across. Yeah, it wasn't that far.
Speaker 2:Were people looking at you like what the fuck, I don't think so.
Speaker 1:maybe I don't know. But so then I started thinking I'm like, oh man, I got my hat on.
Speaker 2:It'll stay.
Speaker 1:And then I'm like oh man, I got my coasters on my hat.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you need to put that on your shirt.
Speaker 1:And I'm like, oh no, I got my earbud in.
Speaker 2:Okay, can I Just spiraling?
Speaker 1:out of control, can I?
Speaker 2:just tell you how to solve this real quick.
Speaker 1:Let me hear it. Put it in your shirt, okay, great. Yeah, that's a good idea. Would have probably worked, but you weren't there to tell me that.
Speaker 2:Right, right, right, and then the earbud goes in the hand and then you sit on the hat.
Speaker 1:Not sitting on the hat? What Not messing that bill up? It's worthless to me. If the bill messes up, if the bill is crooked at all, it's worthless to me.
Speaker 2:It wouldn't be crooked because you'd be sitting on it and making it flatter.
Speaker 1:Is my butt perfectly flat? Is the thing I'm sitting on perfectly flat? I'm sure it's contoured to my butt to make it more comfortable. That's like a computer chair, that's not. No, I'm saying you put the bill behind you. I don't like it, Alright whatever Pineapples, I don't like it.
Speaker 2:What'd you do with the hat?
Speaker 1:So I left the hat on my head, I put the sunglasses on my face.
Speaker 2:Kind of smart. Did you lose the? You might have lost those.
Speaker 1:And I left the air, or it wasn't an airpod.
Speaker 2:The earbud.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I left the earbud in my ear.
Speaker 2:So we lost an earbud.
Speaker 1:So we lost an earbud. I already knew that was coming there, why didn't you?
Speaker 2:hold that thing in your hand.
Speaker 1:But I didn't know.
Speaker 2:What the hell dude.
Speaker 1:I lost it until well after the ride. Well, and I wasn't upset about it, because I have a birthday next weekend and mom said she was going to give me a new I mean, that's like pair of earbuds because I only have one. I only had one.
Speaker 2:Oh, so you lost the other one, so now you have zero for the next week.
Speaker 1:Yes, and now I'm rocking none, but that's okay, I can sit in silence, it doesn't bother me. But so I go on this ride and right when it's about to take off, I remember I looked at Dash and I was like, hey, this thing doesn't go upside down, does it? Because it's one of those ones with the tracks above us. So I'm like it doesn't go upside down, right? And then Dash's response is a lot. He said a lot. And I was like how is the worst answer everybody.
Speaker 1:But it was the truest answer, though, and as soon as you said it, man, I swear like a cue. The floor starts lowering down and I just go.
Speaker 2:I hate that part.
Speaker 1:I just immediately thought of Russell Wilson and I was like that's right. So I looked at Dash and said that's right, man. And so we start going and I'm thinking it's a small roller coaster, because this, I mean, you got to think he's like 11 years old.
Speaker 2:This is not a baby roller coaster, it's a big boy roller coaster. He loves it.
Speaker 1:Very, very, very fast roller coaster.
Speaker 2:When it came out, it was the fastest in the world, I think.
Speaker 1:You know when I knew I was in trouble.
Speaker 2:When you saw the parking lot.
Speaker 1:No, when I started going up and it went, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click. Four minutes later, click, click, click, click, click click I was like, oh man, dude, this is not that little of a roller coaster.
Speaker 2:It was not four minutes, but it was definitely. Over over 10 seconds on a roller coaster feels like four minutes, because you're on it for like 78 seconds at first I was chilling.
Speaker 1:I was like not that big of a deal. I was like you know we're getting up here. And then I was getting like worried about my belongings, like I'm gonna lose them, they're gonna fall all the way down onto that really small range over down there.
Speaker 1:And Then I started getting a little worried about my safety because I was like I'm gonna fall on that little range over down there. And then we took off and all I could think about was my hat and my coasters. And we go and we hit the first loop and immediately I knew my sunglasses were staying on my head. They weren't coming off my face like they were so firm on there they were hugging the sides. I went over that loop and they didn't even budge a tiny bit.
Speaker 1:So I was like okay, we're good glued, airpods still in it there, ear buds still in at this point because I I can still hear my music. So then we go and we hit another roundabout thing and I was like, okay, I adjusted my glasses. Didn't have to, but like in my head I thought I did so I adjusted them a little bit. Well, another loop comes up right after that and that next loop, my hat just.
Speaker 1:Gones off bro forever and I even looked at Dash and I said I wish I probably shouldn't have said to a little kid. But I said I just lost my fucking hat and I'm still like upside down and I just reach my arm up into the air and squeeze and I get my hat. No, you didn't. I swear dude, I get my hat in my head and it was off my head for at least two seconds.
Speaker 2:No, it felt like two seconds.
Speaker 1:It was, I mean, it was a while dude, no, dude it must have been following like with us, like because the I was saying, you know how?
Speaker 1:you know, listen, listen, listen. You know how, if you're in a car and you're not wearing a seatbelt, you're going as fast as that. So it was on my head, it was going as fast as me and when it flipped off it had to be like cranking with the, with the roller coaster for a minute, bro. And I reached up and I snagged that thing and when I pull it in, I just looked at it and my eyes got so wide. I looked over at Dash and Dash's mouth is wide open. He goes did you just catch that? And I go let's fucking go, dropped a second F bomb on the little boy.
Speaker 1:Oh, dude, I was amped bro.
Speaker 2:How stoked was he.
Speaker 1:I think I might have offered him a beer after that.
Speaker 2:He was like Uncle Daniel's the coolest ever.
Speaker 1:I was like dude, do you want a beer? And I was like no, I'm just kidding. I mean, unless you really want one, don't tell your parents. I mean this is something I need to celebrate, jesus Christ. I was hoping it was on the camera. Oh, like the moment. How epic would that be If it was a live motion camera and it caught all two seconds. Yeah, it was just riding with the roller coaster in the air.
Speaker 2:I don't think they work like that. I don't think they're that cool.
Speaker 1:That would have been cool though it would have been real cool. I'm sure somebody in that park saw that and was like that guy's a legend.
Speaker 2:There was other people in the seats with you. No one else saw it. What?
Speaker 1:The girl to my right was like literally thought she was going to die as soon as the floor gave out. That would have been me. And then it was just kind of like built in where like I mean you couldn't look behind you and in front of you. I mean I guess maybe they could have saw in front of me.
Speaker 2:I mean, yeah, I don't know, it was pretty cool. I don't know, if nobody saw you, then that sucks.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I don't need anybody to see it happen. My nephew saw it. Well, he didn't really see it, but he knew it was happening.
Speaker 2:He knew it was gone and then, more than a second later, you caught it.
Speaker 1:Yep, two seconds, bro. I know you want to short change me on this. It was flying.
Speaker 2:I'll give you one point six.
Speaker 1:Bro, it's scientific as fuck.
Speaker 2:It is, but also no.
Speaker 1:Kind of G4s. It has to do with G4s.
Speaker 2:Yes, but what I'm saying is also true where things feel longer than they are, whenever things are short. You know, like the whole coaster feels long, but it's only like what? Like 56 or 72 seconds or something.
Speaker 1:I mean I would have to time how long it takes me to say I just lost my fucking hat and then reach out Okay, fair, that's because that's what I said, and I said it calm. I said it like really angry, like you made me go on this roller coaster, child.
Speaker 2:You owe me a hat. I know you get money for your birthday.
Speaker 1:You have a freaking phone, bro. I didn't have a phone at your age.
Speaker 2:They didn't give phones to my kid, or whatever. I was 11.
Speaker 1:I was like 16 when I got my first phone and it shut off after a month because no one paid the bill. Exactly. No one paid the bill and I wasn't allowed. I wasn't allowed to have a job at 16 because I was grounded.
Speaker 2:But that's a story for another Time, not this podcast, a different podcast Joining in for Daniel's second podcast where he talks about being grounded from almost half of his adolescent life. It's not an exaggeration. No, but it's not a real podcast either, so or it could be.
Speaker 1:It could be, don't look for it.
Speaker 2:It would be a very boring podcast. Yeah, he'd be like my dad. Let me go out whenever I said I was playing a sport, so I lied about playing sports, but I played a lot of sports.
Speaker 1:I was gonna say I lied about playing sports, but I played so many sports.
Speaker 2:But then he'd also be like we're gonna go play this game at this place and it'd be like, not really that game that had to do with sports.
Speaker 1:Well, we'd say we're gonna go play manhunt at like two o'clock in the morning and he'd be drunk, so he'd be like, yeah, you know, go ahead To do whatever, and then we'd just go aid Jeff's house. Every night the same kid, f you kid. We even got like shaving cream. When we were right on his boat His dad was probably like who did you piss off to?
Speaker 2:Everyone, everyone. Do you wanna jump into our articles though?
Speaker 1:Yeah, All right, man, you go first.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I got the first E. This one's kind of weird but also kind of funny. It says I like doing foreign news. Florida Aquarium blames Manatee's death on high intensity sex with another male Manatee Damn Hugh. The Manatee died from a 14.5 centimeter rip in his colon caused bya sexual encounter with another male Manatee, who is also his brother. Oh my goodness, I guess Manatees are about that life.
Speaker 1:That's murder, I'm sorry, that's rape and that's murder.
Speaker 2:You're a people. Yes, it says a Florida Aquarium is attributing the death through the high intensity sex with his brother.
Speaker 1:The high intensity sex In.
Speaker 2:Hugh, a Manatee at the Mote Marine.
Speaker 1:Laboratory in Aquarium In.
Speaker 2:Sarasota died in April. Yeah, mote Marine died in April at the age of 38. Oh, he's older than me, nice. The staff noted he began exhibiting a change in behavior on April 29th and the staff began monitoring him closely. He then became unresponsive and ultimately was determined to have died.
Speaker 1:Can we blame this on the staff? Was there a female in there? Were they sexually frustrated?
Speaker 2:I'm not sure I want to keep reading more of this. It says earlier this week Necropsy reported of Hugh's last day revealed that he died from the rip and the sexual encounter from the other male who was also his brother Then around 515 was the other. He did it again, I guess.
Speaker 1:Oh, my goodness, you didn't separate him after that. What the hell.
Speaker 2:When he did this?
Speaker 1:Did he come in general?
Speaker 2:pop when he did it. The second time, when he swam away, the witnesses noticed that he was just at the bottom of the pool, like laying there, it said they posted on Facebook. The aquarium addressed Hugh's death saying that the manatees engagement in natural yet increased mating behavior observed and documented in manatees both in managed care and in the wild. Does it say what happened to the brother? Although the aquarium said that April incident with Buffett and Hugh was the first time such heightened mating behavior was witnessed between the two manatees, it is said that in previous years the two annually exhibited approximately two months of seasonal behavior change, including, but not limited to, an increased sexual behavior. So like his increased sexual behavior this time around just resulted in him like killing his bro.
Speaker 1:That's fucked up. That's crazy. Lost a lot of respect for manatees today.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so they both did. They both did it though.
Speaker 1:No, it just kind of reminds me of dolphins.
Speaker 2:I mean kind of Dolphins rape. It's yeah, but they were just like letting it happen. There wasn't rape as so much as they were both letting it happen. They both did it. They're both cool. Nobody can be in their mind, you know, I'm sure after he was already injured.
Speaker 1:He was probably like you know, give me a break.
Speaker 2:No, but what it was? Yeah, well, probably he didn't let it after that. But what they were saying is they both kind of went back and forth at it like super, like weird.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for years. Well, this year he didn't want to participate.
Speaker 2:I think this year he just went a little too hardcore, a little too high intensity, exactly. But yeah, I don't really have anything else to say about those weird manatees.
Speaker 1:Cold manatees.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you got any articles.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I got two articles and we'll start right here with this one because I got it pulled up. It is oh, I lost it, I got it back. A company accidentally pays employee 367 times his salary and he refuses to pay the money back.
Speaker 2:Oh we, totally do the same thing if I could.
Speaker 1:A Hungarian man temporarily became a rich man Temporarily it says I hate this article already After the company you worked for accidentally paid him 367 times more than he had actually earned.
Speaker 2:I would have bought a house immediately.
Speaker 1:And when the employer asked for the money back, he refused to pay.
Speaker 2:I'll just work for you for the next 30 years.
Speaker 1:The unnamed man, who hails from Hungary's Samoji county, briefly worked for a company in Kapausvar, but his employment was terminated during the trial period. For a short stint at the company. He said to earn 92,549 forints, which amounted to 238 euros $260. But in a feat of incredible generosity, his employer wired him 367 times out of a mile.
Speaker 2:Nice.
Speaker 1:Actually, it was just a huge mistake caused by the fact that the man had provided an Austrian bank account, so the salary had to be paid in local currency, which is euros only, instead of converting the forints to euros, they sent the lucky man 92,549 euros instead, nice Soon. After realizing the mistake, the Hungarian company contacted its former employee and asked him to return the money that had been accidentally wired to his bank account. However, the man said that he did not have access to the Austrian bank account anymore, so he couldn't wire them the money back.
Speaker 2:Nice save, bro, nice save. Only that obviously wasn't the end of it.
Speaker 1:And a subsequent police investigation found that the man had extracted some 15,500 euros in cash from his Austrian account through an ATM in southern Hungary and transferred it to another bank account. With the help of the Kappasvar district prosecutor's office, the company managed to freeze the Austrian bank account of the accused and arranged for the money to be transferred back to his own bank account. According to HVGHU, it was recovered around 72,000 euros so far, but hopes to eventually receive the full amount wired to its former employee. That's fucked so that's their fault.
Speaker 2:How much money did he pay back?
Speaker 1:He's paid back 72,000 euros so far.
Speaker 2:He still owes 20 something.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he says 20,000. He bought a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2:He's 20,549.
Speaker 1:That's how much he probably spent.
Speaker 2:And he was only supposed to get 238. Dude. He probably bought so much stuff immediately and while he was like I'm not paying this back, I only took him to court. He was like buying, buying, buying, buying, buying. I got a dope couch and a dope TV. Right, it's all gone. You can't prove shit.
Speaker 1:You know what this reminds me of One time when I had a different bank.
Speaker 2:It was like grow no, it was not grow financial, it was like Bank of America or something. It was some bank. I don't remember which bank I had. Anyways, they gave me an extra $40 out of my own. Like money was stuck together from the ATM. I went to go get 60 bucks and I counted it out when I got to the grocery store where I was going. It was like 100 bucks, what, what? It was the coolest moment of my time Did you get whipped?
Speaker 2:No, I went and I asked my buddy's wife about it because she like worked out a bank and she was like a head teller. She was like, usually the banks they like, well, figure that out and then charge you, okay, cool. But what if they don't figure out? It's me, she's like, well then, I guess they never know and I'm like cool. And still. And they never knew $340.
Speaker 2:Yeah it's like when you're walking down the street and they just give it to you for free, except the only difference is I was going there to get some money and they're just like do you just want some icing on this cake? Like, I know there's already icing, but you also want some cherries and some like book cream.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I've never just gotten free money in my account. That'd be cool. I feel like I wouldn't want to give it back either it wasn't in my account.
Speaker 2:It was like just delivered to me and out of the ATM. But exactly what you said, like the same as just depositing your account. I feel like anytime somebody's going against the bank, you got to root for that person, yeah because banks are like they're not the evil, but like they're such a big corporation that they represent evil.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no matter how unlikable the person is, you have to root for them over bank, because banks more unlikable, because anytime you're like, oh, I need to pay my phone bill, and they're like, oh well, your phone bill was $7 more than what you had in your account, so it's going to cost you $42 more than you don't have.
Speaker 1:Well, the worst part about them is, if you use your card to buy something, the bank gets 1.5% of that transaction. They take that money and buy something. Whoever you bought something from uses that money to buy something, the bank gets 1.5% of that transaction. They just get all the monies. And then, after 50 transactions, the bank owns all the money, use cash and the bank doesn't get any.
Speaker 2:That's why the bank promotes people using cards.
Speaker 1:Use cash, that $50 is still $50 at the end of the day.
Speaker 2:Every single time.
Speaker 1:Well, really it's not $50 because it's any of it backed, we don't know, but today it's worth $50.
Speaker 2:And we would gladly like for you to go down on the bottom of our page on Buzzsprout and click that subscribe button and get that little $3 thing and then we will totally shout out your name. Thank you and appreciate that. You know you help us pay for this content we give you guys.
Speaker 1:Nice plug spot. I like it.
Speaker 2:I mean, I felt like the moment was there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you had anything else to say about that, because that's fucking nuts. But other than me getting the free money from the ATM, I haven't really found a lot of money, other than like in the laundry. You know I found that money at. I remember that that was cool. Super dope.
Speaker 1:That was like 200 bucks or something, yeah, just in a chair at rooms to go.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we probably should have gave it to the people out of rooms to go, but they would have just kept it.
Speaker 1:That's what our parents said.
Speaker 2:Well then, maybe that's why we're fucked up. I remember we went to Outback Steakhouse and we were not a family that went to Outback.
Speaker 1:Steakhouse, and then we went to.
Speaker 2:Smitties. If you don't know, that's just like a local pub that had good rubens.
Speaker 1:I don't think that's really a good place to go. Yeah, it's like a whole new wall pub.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, they kicked us out when our parents weren't their fuckers.
Speaker 1:All right, yeah, so that's the end of that article. I think it's back to you. I'm pulling here.
Speaker 2:Do you want one about a jail dude, or do you want one about a guy surviving a freak accident?
Speaker 1:Give me the jail dude, because then I'm gonna do a freak accident that I don't know if the person survives, but I hope so.
Speaker 2:Dang okay. So this article says escaped inmate arrested wearing a Rolex and moving into a $1.5 million coastal Florida home.
Speaker 1:I don't know why, but that title just reminds me of that movie Spring Breakers.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because they weren't fucking nuts in that movie. But it says that Alan.
Speaker 1:Todd, look at my shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you like that one. Sorry, go ahead. No, it's fine. Alan Todd May, who was 58, lived a high life as Jacob Turner.
Speaker 1:He was 58.
Speaker 2:58 years old, but he escaped Colorado prison and became Jacob Turner afterwards, so it says he was a career fraudster and escaped from federal prison in Inglewood, colorado, in 2018. He was arrested in Fort Lauderdale, florida. This just recently, yeah, so he made it out for five years he did well, yeah, and he was like I don't know how they caught, I guess because he was buying a nice home, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're gonna want tax information and they're gonna be like, hey, this guy doesn't even have a social security number.
Speaker 2:The Chief Deputy US Marshal for Colorado said we're not even sure how he was 100% living like that, like he's so good at what he does. We're not sure, like, how he was able to do that. It said the career fraudster who escaped from.
Speaker 1:He got friends in no places.
Speaker 2:I guess so. Who escaped from federal prison in Colorado nearly five years ago was captured this week while moving into a $1.5 million home. That's crazy, yeah, he was able to escape and then move up the ladder that much in five years. Federal Marshals arrested him at the house in Fort Lauderdale on Tuesday while movers were unloading a U-Haul truck. Damn bro, he was right there.
Speaker 1:That's crazy Five years ago. Do you know where I was five years ago Doing the same thing I'm doing right now, other than the podcast? But I was literally working the same job.
Speaker 2:Doing this the same stuff.
Speaker 1:Actually.
Speaker 2:I was, I only had one kid at the time.
Speaker 1:See, stuff was different. I mean, things changed, but I didn't fucking get $1.5 million.
Speaker 2:Well, he probably didn't have that much, but he probably was like fronting people into thinking he had a lot of money, but literally he was arrested. When he was arrested, he was wearing that Rolex, he was driving a Mercedes.
Speaker 1:Bro. But how do you do that? How do you fraud somebody into giving you physical items without actually receiving money? Just IOUs big ass IOUs, Then with huge pencils and big pieces of paper.
Speaker 2:Damn bro. So he got caught because he went to some fundraiser like some posh fundraiser. Someone took a picture of him in a pink shirt, with a pink blazer and a pink like pink tinted glasses and published it on a website of the Palm Daily News. And somebody was just going through news, because that's what they do in the CIA and shit. And they're like hey, this hard bro, when you're run away from the cops, don't ever flash, man. You escape prison. Don't flash. You wear pink. Even if you're in Florida, don't wear pink. Don't ever look better than anyone else. What was that guy's problem? You understand now? Yeah, man, it was literally anonymous tipster who led him to it. The fugitive wasn't exactly keeping a low profile. Just like I said, he was living a very lavish lifestyle where he flaunted his wealth in high society down in South Florida.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry that. Just I just wanna plug this in real quick, cause I've been meaning to tell you this and you just gave me an opportunity when you said an anonymous tipster. But I was at Walgreens the other day and I saw a car crash into another car Awesome and then I saw that car drive away oh, not awesome and I took off out of the parking lot and got behind them. Did you? I got the? They took a picture of their license plate. Did you go back and tell the people? I drove back in and I parked next to the car and I'm looking at the car and there's like not really any damage to it. A little like there's a little. I mean there's. It's definitely scratched and like a small little crack in the back.
Speaker 2:15 of them anyways.
Speaker 1:So I'm sitting there and I'm like man, I'd be pissed if somebody hit my car like that. And I'm also what if it's a rental? Bro, this is Florida. If it's a rental, just a little paint scratch like that, you're gonna get charged for painting the entire car. It's gonna be a $15,000, fucking.
Speaker 2:Right right, right right.
Speaker 1:Cause. I mean, you could tell like it was damaged?
Speaker 2:It wasn't, so did you try to make small talk to see how the person felt?
Speaker 1:Also. No, I sat there and I waited for him to come out and then she came out and she would not make eye contact with me, she would not talk to me, like she's loading her groceries in the car, and I am like, at first I was leaning out my window, I was like ma'am, ma'am, excuse me, ma'am, nope, won't look at me.
Speaker 1:I opened up my door. I stand on like my side step on my truck and I'm like leaning over her car and I'm like, excuse me, ma'am, ma'am, I'm like waving my phone in the end, ma'am, and she's not looking. I'm like I did not just chase those people down or nothing, so I get out of the car, I walk around and when I walk around, she like has to look at me and I'm like, ma'am, I just watched somebody hit your car and they just drove away. And she was like, oh dear. And she walked around, she looked and she could immediately see it and she was like, oh yeah, somebody did hit me. And I was like, yeah, well, I got their license plate if you want it. And she was like, oh yeah, she goes, I'm gonna get them for hit and run. She goes. It's the principal of it. And I was like, when she said that, I was like, damn man, I kind of feel bad now, but at the same time it was like an old couple dude.
Speaker 2:It is the principal of it, though, too.
Speaker 1:And that is the principal. I mean, when I saw them turning out, I could tell that the depth was way off and I was like they're gonna hit that car and they just kept going and hit the car. And I mean, I don't. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but maybe the lady can't see right and maybe the lady that's driving that car is too old to be driving right now.
Speaker 2:Well, here's the deal. If you can't be driving because you're drunk or too old or some reason, then you need to know and Exactly so.
Speaker 1:I mean, in the end of the day, I don't think I feel bad about it, but it's something that I just want to tell you because I just thought that it was something strange that was happening, because you are anonymous tips dude. I was an anonymous tips dude.
Speaker 2:This literally said that, though this guy, he went into a 20 year prison sentence for a mail fraud and earned over $7 million in a Ponzi scheme, like you know, like the pyramid scheme. So he probably stashed some cash it also said, while in federal custody he managed to steal another $700,000 by filing fraudulent documents and pilfering unclaimed oil and gas royalties that were owed to several companies. Nice yeah, by then he had been loose for three and a half years and the trail to catch him had long since gone.
Speaker 2:Cold Sounds like a white collared mastermind he's only one of the dozens of people who escaped from federal prisons in the US over the last few years. He looks like a regular ass dude, but that's who steals the most, I guess.
Speaker 1:Yeah no, you want to look like a regular dude, but he probably didn't look like a regular dude in that picture.
Speaker 2:This says he does look like a regular dude in the picture.
Speaker 1:In the pink one. I don't know what you're talking about the one where you were saying where he was wearing all pink.
Speaker 2:I didn't get to see that picture.
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 2:They didn't show. It just said that, like some prisons are so lax that prisoners have literally just gotten different clothes and walked out, that's because there's way too many prisoners and way too many prisons. Right.
Speaker 1:There's like just let him go, Just let him go. No.
Speaker 2:They followed him around for like a week or two.
Speaker 1:it says Like did he kill anybody? No, let him go.
Speaker 2:I mean honestly just make him pay money back. Don't put him in prison so that he like owes money or like that we're paying money for him, you know.
Speaker 1:Exactly? How's he ever gonna make that money to reimburse it?
Speaker 2:He had a LinkedIn page that said Jacob Turner, which was his alias certified mediator in Palm Beach. What is it? Certified mediator? Yeah, he did complete a class on mediation while he was in prison. Ooh, that's so fucking funny.
Speaker 1:I mean, if you tell me your certification is from freaking Colorado State Penitentiary, I'm gonna be like I think I'm gonna go with the other guy.
Speaker 2:But he probably didn't say that. He probably didn't say where he was from he probably just I would ask. Probably had him on LinkedIn and they probably were like, oh, we'll give it to you. And he's like, yeah.
Speaker 2:I'll bring it up Like I don't know I've come to the interview and then it said he was so good at fooling people and getting people to like him through his charisma that, like he probably just would've went in there and been like I'm not buying it, bro. Then guess what? He went to the next place. Exactly that's what he would have to do.
Speaker 1:Because I'm not buying it. Yeah well, someone would-. I don't trust him.
Speaker 2:A lot of like higher people are like I have a good feeling about this person. That's when the higher people you know because they have good feelings about him, I've been really trust myself. And he looks like a regular ass white Christian dude.
Speaker 1:Definitely don't trust him.
Speaker 2:I mean, yeah, I guess I get it, but I don't know. I don't really have anything else to say about that Besides that the guy was a G made out of prison.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean I was. I feel like the white collar criminals I kind of root for, like if you're going against the government, banks, anything like that, it's hard to root against you.
Speaker 2:Right, because it's kind of almost like this guy's, like the system that we're in. None of us want it. You know, yeah, like we were all just born. No one said, oh, I want to make a lot of money. We make a lot of money because we're forced to make money.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it'd be cool if I could just float around on a raft eating fruit all day.
Speaker 2:And yeah right. Or you had your own island where you got to like. Everything was like a video game where it's like build it up, collect sand, get more grass, do, do, do, Build it up.
Speaker 1:You don't get to do that shit.
Speaker 2:Fucking sins yeah it's more like go to work, hate your job for 99% of people.
Speaker 1:And you can't afford land unless you buy it in some place where nobody wants to live.
Speaker 2:Because now all of the big corporations are buying up all the land so that we can't have it, and you know what that's becoming. It's like the old school days when I were like, kings owned land, but now just corporations do instead. That should be illegal, bro. That should technically be illegal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's getting out of hand in Florida. I know that for sure, More than Florida just.
Speaker 2:America.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:If companies own fucking more than fucking, whatever percentage of that like, eventually they'll just own the world, which you can't do anything.
Speaker 1:There would be some sort of law where a company can only own a percentage of a city, a very small percentage of a city.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it shouldn't be allowed to own Like that one guy that's buying like up all of Annemarie Island and owns like 40% of it.
Speaker 1:he shouldn't be able to do that you should be able to own like 1.6, because like, exactly, Come on. Because if you own 1.6 of every city in America, you own 1.6 of America and that's huge and that's too much. If everybody owns 1.6 of America, I mean less than 100 people can do that, less than 75 people can do that. Exactly, if everybody owned 1.6, there would be less than 70 owners of America. There would be about 70 owners of America.
Speaker 2:So it should probably be even a number like a tenth of that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it should be very, very, very minimal.
Speaker 2:Yeah, even lower. So yeah, man, I don't know, but I don't really have anything else about that.
Speaker 1:No, yeah, you can go to your next one, if you want. All right, this one has a very exciting title.
Speaker 2:I already like it. Who you're excited on excited.
Speaker 1:Boy allows himself to be bitten by a black widow to become Spider-Man.
Speaker 2:I already don't like it. I already taken him back.
Speaker 1:An eight-year-old Bolivian boy ended up in the hospital after allowing himself to be bitten by a dangerous black widow, Spider, in order to become like his favorite superhero, Spider-Man.
Speaker 2:I mean eight years old. In Bolivia I kind of understand.
Speaker 1:The incident occurred in the municipality of Vishaloma Nice, near the city of Oruro Double nice In central Bolivia.
Speaker 1:The eight-year-old child, whose name has not been revealed by the media, Because his name is Miles Morales Was reportedly playing near a river close to his house when he turned a big rock and discovered a black widow Spider, he said yes, sir. Without realizing the consequences of being bitten by a highly poisonous Spider, he grabbed the arachnid and put it on the back of his hand in the hopes of being bitten. He got his wish and then headed home, where he began experiencing symptoms like body aches and intense muscle spasms. Initially, the boy didn't say anything to his mother about the Spider bite.
Speaker 2:Do you think they hallucinate?
Speaker 1:I don't know, it doesn't say it, but after about three hours of agony he said that he had been bitten by a colorful Spider.
Speaker 2:It's not really colorful, but I mean, I guess, Black and red Dang man.
Speaker 1:The concerned mother took the child to a health center in a neighboring town, but he was subsequently referred to the hospital general.
Speaker 2:San.
Speaker 1:Juan de Dios in the city of Oruro as a medical emergency. After hearing about the Spider bite, pediatricians there contacted Ernesto Vasquez, head of the Zoonotic Diseases Program of the Departmental Health Service of Oruro, who helped establish what kind of a Spider had bitten the boy. The child, without considering the risks, picked it up and placed it on the back of his palm where the arachnid made the bite. We are extremely concerned because the analysis and questions asked to the child when he had already recovered indicate that he picked up the arachnid with a simple purpose that he wanted to become Spider-Man.
Speaker 2:Of course he did, because who doesn't want to be?
Speaker 1:Spider-Man, Spider-Man everybody gets one. The boy's mother confirmed that he was a big Spider-Man fan, but she had no idea he could do something so dangerous to actually become like the Marvel superhero.
Speaker 2:She never told him not to.
Speaker 1:Luckily, after identifying the Spider species, doctors administered the proper anti-venom and the boy's condition became stable only 30 minutes later. That shit works so quick.
Speaker 2:That's good, because he was probably gonna die.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's like Narcan.
Speaker 2:Yeah, man Super fast, like EpiPen or some shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, these black spiders with red bags are black widows. They do not cause anyone to become Spider-Man. On the contrary, they put lives at risk. Most people who get bitten by widow spiders do not suffer any serious complications, but in rare cases, the bites of some widows by species have resulted in fatalities caused by the severe disruption of nerve signals in the body. Young children, the elderly and people with underlying health problems are most susceptible to serious widow-bite complications. Interestingly, a very similar case was recorded in 2020, when three boys from the Bolivian town of Sheyanta provoked a black widow spider to bite them for the exact purpose to become real-life Spider-Man.
Speaker 2:Everybody just gets black widows.
Speaker 1:Bolivia is loving the Spider-Man's though, bro.
Speaker 2:I mean parents there, I guess probably have different culture. They're just like, yeah, just watch this. Who cares? I am telling you, I guess don't there's black widows everywhere, and they always choose black widows. Don't raise your kid in Bolivia. So I'm fine with that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like why isn't it a wolf spider or something?
Speaker 2:Where do you take black widows?
Speaker 1:Go have wolf spiders, exclusively black widows.
Speaker 2:Probably. That's probably what they have a lot of.
Speaker 1:Luckily they are not doing it like brown recluses.
Speaker 2:Mine's not as cool as that.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:My next one's not as fun as becoming Spider-Man.
Speaker 1:Nobody became Spider-Man. They seized up and barely survived. Yeah, well, it was not impressive.
Speaker 2:The most fucked up thing is that the reason why he probably didn't tell his mom in the beginning is you remember how the Toby McGuire Spider-Man happens when he gets?
Speaker 1:bit. He gets sick. He gets real sick. Yeah, he's probably like it's working. Yeah, it's working, it's working man. He's like I'm becoming Spider-Man. He's calling his friends, like it's happening.
Speaker 2:Like why isn't my vision changing? I just need to take a nap.
Speaker 1:Exactly they freaking. Woke up and was like all right, man, I can barely breathe. I might have to tell mom about this.
Speaker 2:My tongue is super swollen. My face feels like it's gonna explode.
Speaker 1:I don't know, maybe the doctors can help speed this thing up.
Speaker 2:I become Spider-Man faster.
Speaker 1:He was probably still asked his mom right now like so when can I shoot webs?
Speaker 2:Yeah, mom, I got this bite. You went to, took me to the doctors. How come I'm not better yet? Exactly.
Speaker 1:I'm normal, mom. I'm not better. This is stupid. This is exactly how I was before the spider bite.
Speaker 2:I need to find one that's red with a black belly. But yeah, my last article is just this Oklahoma man survives after he stabbed in the head with a flagpole at the Sonic Drive-In restaurant.
Speaker 1:Oh, was it you that stabbed me in the head with a lawn jar?
Speaker 2:I didn't stab it as much as I threw it at you, which sounds less bad, but it's actually worse because, like force of gravity, If you guys don't know what a lawn jar is.
Speaker 1:They were the most dangerous toys for children in the 90s.
Speaker 2:You don't give it to. They were really left over from the 80s and 70s, I think, and we shouldn't have had them.
Speaker 1:They were awful, they were very dangerous toys for children.
Speaker 2:It was basically just a steel dart.
Speaker 1:That's what it was, and you threw it into the air and tried to stick it into the lawn.
Speaker 2:And I threw it into the air and tried to stick it into his head.
Speaker 1:I just remember. I don't remember much from like before moving here, but I remember putting my hand up and saying hold on a second. I remember that. And then I don't even remember hitting me in the head, but I remember being held in mom's arms in the garage and just blood leaking down the side of my head.
Speaker 2:Dude, dude, they probably shot you in the hospital.
Speaker 1:Bro, they did take me to the hospital.
Speaker 2:Did they? I don't remember that.
Speaker 1:Yes, they took me to the hospital. I had a hole in my head.
Speaker 2:They left me behind. I don't remember.
Speaker 1:I had a damn hole in my head. I was in a lot of trouble. Was grandma there? My grandma might have been there, aunt Eve.
Speaker 2:Oh, aunt Eve was there, I was done. Yeah, you might have had a tough time Just blocked it out your story's way better than this guy's story, yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, you're the main protagonist in that, so thanks for that, oh great.
Speaker 2:I don't remember much besides that.
Speaker 1:Everyone told me about it. You stabbed me with a long joke.
Speaker 2:I threw it in the air. I remember that part.
Speaker 1:I said stop.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I threw it in the air in your direction.
Speaker 1:I feel like you remember that part too.
Speaker 2:I remember, no, not the stop part. Now that you say that it's funny because-.
Speaker 1:You're like I vaguely remember a hand going out.
Speaker 2:That was a little boy. I was just like sweet.
Speaker 1:I was like, oh, I trust my brother, you know I trust a six year old, you know he's got my best interest in heart.
Speaker 2:I was six.
Speaker 1:He's my brother. I had no one's best interest in heart when I was six Brutal.
Speaker 2:I know. I know it's not nice, but this guy had less nice intent for this other guy. It says the Oklahoma man stabbed another man in the head with the flag bullets uh, sonic driving, uh on Tuesday.
Speaker 1:I'm told so long. What was he taking too long?
Speaker 2:Uh, it just said that around seven 30,. The guy stabbed him and they found the guy with the flagpole in his head, oh, uh, under under his jaw and out the back nearest temple.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, no, you don't have to show me, I know where the temple comes out.
Speaker 2:Witnesses told the police they saw the suspect identified as Clinton Collins who sounds like a fucking super villain, honestly. Uh charged the victim and stabbed him in the head with the flagpole that is so brutal. Witnesses said that they heard Collins say that's what he gets. He deserved it. Collins was quickly quickly taken into custody. After officers arrives, Firefighters had to cut part of the flagpole to fit the victim in the ambulance. The victim miraculously survived the brutal maiming but will likely lose the eye.
Speaker 1:That guy, he just so. The nerve that you have to have to stab somebody in the head with something like a flagpole and have it go through and come out the other side, like the mental fortitude you need to do that is unbelievable.
Speaker 2:Well, after you know, after getting charged with that, it said that, uh, there's not reporting what, but he had previous felony charges. And then when they went to try to go talk to his attorney, um, it wasn't clear if he even had one. So it seems like he's done bad shit in the past. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I'm just saying like, like, the mental capacity you need to stab somebody in the head with a flagpole is impressive. I'm not saying it's a good thing, but I'm just saying, holy shit, how can somebody do that to somebody else? Right, right. And the fact that the guy lived is just like the other dude needs to think him, because he was about to get murder and now he's going to get attempted murder. Now this guy's going to get an opportunity to stab somebody else in the head with a flagpole.
Speaker 2:Because he um called him a bitch or something Exactly. Who knows? It didn't even say, I'm sure it was some sort of ego thing.
Speaker 1:That's usually what it is Always Ego battles.
Speaker 2:Man those are just not fun to get into. No man, you can't get into them. Definitely not um as fun as um lawnjarting.
Speaker 1:You know, lawnjart battles aren't funny either. What's crazy is. You stab me in the head with that lawnjart and you broke my collarbone.
Speaker 2:The collarbone thing was like, not in like. None of those things were intentional. Well, the lawnjart was kind of intense, yeah, but I didn't know it was going to take a chunk out of your head. I was a six year old kid that like threw plenty of shit at you probably. You probably believe it, but yeah, but that was a very sharp metal. We both learned a lesson that day.
Speaker 1:I learned not to throw shit at you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I learned not to throw shit at you because it would probably kill you, and you learned that, um, I'm stupid.
Speaker 1:So I learned the hard way that you don't trust Andrew.
Speaker 2:No, that's not. That's not true at all. You don't trust me. When I'm a little six year old, no, no, just six year old I yeah cause they don't know what's happened.
Speaker 1:They, they know what's happening and just have their best interests in mind. I and their laugh could be. If it's your health, versus a nice little giggle for them, that's their best interest. Wait what Like, even though I was going to be injured, possibly mortally you're saying. You're saying because you were a target in violence is funny and I would get a chuckle and I probably did chuckle. I probably did and that's probably like, oh shit, your best interest, You're like I would do it. I got what I wanted.
Speaker 2:And then I was probably like oh, I think he's gonna, like, die.
Speaker 1:You probably also didn't think that you were going to launch that thing in the air and actually hit me in the head. You probably thought you were going to scare me or some shit.
Speaker 2:I didn't think that your head, you just stick it into my fucking head.
Speaker 1:I didn't think that brain damage for the next fucking 30 something years.
Speaker 2:She did, she was trying to blame that. I mean he's trying to like trying to blame that on me. His lack of emotions are not my fault, bro, he's trying to put like brain damage on me so that he can be like listen, he agreed to it.
Speaker 1:I'm suing him, not suing him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, please don't sue me.
Speaker 1:I waive my rights to sue him. You're six. Can you even sue a six year old?
Speaker 2:Probably you can do whatever you want.
Speaker 1:Dude, I'm going to bait some little rich six year old into fucking attacking me or something, stealing something from me. I don't know. Yeah, fucking, make tires of candy. You're just like hey, I bet he just pulled my tires apart. I don't know.
Speaker 2:And now he owes me. Those tires were like, worth like $80,000.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know how much time it took me to build those tires.
Speaker 2:That's my job. I build tires. I was going to sell those candy tires.
Speaker 1:Call it candy paint.
Speaker 2:I don't know how we got onto candy paint tires, but I don't know it's getting late.
Speaker 1:Whenever it's late, we just kind of ramble.
Speaker 2:That's true. It's usually a good time to end whenever we get to random things, I think. I feel I don't have anything else to say about the sonic guy that got stabbed. You got anything else to add on there?
Speaker 1:I am all out of news tonight.
