Speaker 1 (00:02):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
firms show? Hello back, it's a fifteen minute morning show podcast.
It's a new Day. Here's Garrett and then Dave Brody

(00:24):
and straight Nate and Scotty b and Scary. There's Danielle
and Gandhi and Froggy. Hi, guys, Hello, So what sort
of X rated mischief are we getting into today? It's
a great question. Soon as Scotty opens his mouth, will
now I'm eating blueberries? You loveberries? I do? I have
a question? What's that? Brody? So it's out to eat

(00:46):
this weekend with a friend, and we watched a guy
with the jeep pull into the parking lot outside the
restaurant and he had the roof off and the doors
off right and when you get out of the car,
he set the alarm. H So I'm wondering that other
than like trying to steal the cost started and steal it,
is there any point to that you can just climb

(01:06):
right in the jeep pretty much, it's just a steal
the whole vehicle. What do you think? I don't know.
I just I'm from Brooklyn, where you're you're super paranoid
and you like like Scary. Remember when Scary put the
club on his steering wheel right outside your house in
the woods. But that's the way I am. I would
put like a boot on the car. And this guy
just drove up with no doors, no roof, and he

(01:29):
alarmed it. Well, you can just climbing and take everything
off the seats, and it's kind of funny, don't. Some
of the newer jeeps though, have like the motion technology
in it, so even if somebody goes and sits in
it or tries to like stick their arm in and
do stuff, it'll go off. Really, I think some of
the newer jeeps have it. I got into somebody else's
car at shop right the other day and nothing happened.

(01:51):
Oh my god, I hate that. There was a car
park there that was exact actually like my same color. Everything.
The door was open. I hit my, I hit my
unlocked and I'm like, oh, that's funny. I guess I
didn't lock it. And I got in. I sat down like,
wait a minute, this car is way too clean. This
is not mine, and I was like, oh my god.

(02:11):
I got out. You see, our minds are fried. We
are so fried, we can't focus. Is the other day
I had to go to the grocery store. I had
company come over and I had to go by I
mean a cart filled with food. I got up to
check out. It wasn't my food, it was I stalled
people's cards multiple times. It was like you steal, Danielle.

(02:35):
It was a shipload of someone else's food, none of
it I wanted. I'm like, I've gone to the car
and I popped the trunk and gone to load it
and realize it's not my trunk that I'm loading this
stuff in. Because I'm like that, I don't have this
in my trunk, Like whose car is this? And it's
the same, like you said, same color, same exact car,

(02:58):
and like this is crazy. I found in the wrong
car last week. So I picked up my daughter from
school and the same exact car was about three spots
away from where I parked. So I went in that.
I pulled out the car, I pulled the door open.
I was putting my daughter into the car. I go,
where'd your car seat go? And then my wife, Alley,
was like, dummy, you're at the wrong car. Harry ever

(03:21):
been caught getting into someone else's car? Hey? And you
don't want to know why With my mom because the
person was in the car. Oh my god. Okay, so
in front of my own buil my mom. My mom
was was She got in the passenger seat. She thought
it was dad, and she started talking and then she
turned out, Oh, I say sorry, and the person started laughing.

(03:45):
Thank goodness, I would have been freaked own I hadn't
happened to me. I had, you know, I was gonna
say I had an ordered ton uber And I came
downstairs and then I was in my lobby, black Cara
with you. I get in the back seat. Brody was there.
I get in the car and it's like some woman
who I'm like, wait and then she's like, this is
my carp the baby in the back seat. He got

(04:08):
in the car next to the baby and he's like, oh.
I used to have a Toyota camera. So early mornings
when I would come into work in park on the street.
We're across the street from a hotel. People would get
into my car as I'm getting out too because I
have a black Toyota camera. Had a black Toyota camera
would happen a handful of times, so awkward, where people
are like, oh, I'm I'm sorry and I'm like, get

(04:30):
out of the car. See, I guess it's it's not
good to have a black card. I had the same
problem that Danielle had, except on the other end of it.
So I have a four door black Dodge Charger and
I parked next to a four door black Um Impala,
which is a full size black car as well. And

(04:51):
there was an older guy in the driver's scene of
the car next to me, and I'm sitting there and
I was, you know, I didn't lock the doors. I
just got in from the grocery and I'm looking at
my phone before I drove away. And an older woman
opens my car door and goes to get in, and
I screamed, what are you doing? And you know she
I guess she didn't hear. Well, she tried to get
in my car, so she got in the car she
meant to get in the car next to me, and

(05:13):
uh so the guy rolls down his window goes, honey,
you're in the wrong car, and I said, it's fine.
If you know, she seems like a nice lady, goes
you like her, you can have her one on the
show ever stolen a vehicle in her lifetime. I know
where you can though, no, So how do you kind

(05:33):
of steal one Scotty? Well, before our first day of
our senior year of high school, we went to a
junk car lot and chained up to this junk car
that was sitting there and towed it to the high
school parking lot and put it in the principal's parking spot. So,
I mean, technically, I guess we stole a car. You did,
You weren't thrown in jail. No, there was a bunch

(05:55):
of us that did it. And I was repolling the cards.
Somebody else had rented a car and they did not
take it back to the rental place, And at the
time I was kind of semi seeing the girl that
worked at the rental place, and she asked me to
go with the repo the car. So I did. I
got the I ran up to the house very very quietly,

(06:15):
got scared, scared shitless, got in this car. But I
like the scroll a lot, so I was, you know,
trying to be like doing the right thing. So I
got in the car. I put in reverse and I've
never reversed so fast in my life down this long
driveway and hauled as out of there. Did see you?
I saw the curtains on the window in the front
of the house open as I got to the end

(06:37):
of the driveway, and I thought this is when they
started shooting. But they never did. Okay, so, would have
any of you ever had your car repossessed? No. I
used to be friends with a Repo man, and of
all the people I've ever known in my whole life,
he is hands down the biggest asshole. He just loved
digging people over. I mean it was his He would
like come back so excited how he snuck into a

(06:59):
gatedhood got this car, and I was just like, man, well,
I'll tell you back in my lean days. Uh. They said, well,
we're gonna have to take your car. I didn't have
any money to pay the the whatever the car payment,
and so I had to hide it. I had to
hide it at a friend's house and they would come by.
They would troll in front of my apartment. I knew

(07:21):
they were out there looking from my car. And finally
I got it paid off and we're okay, you know
we're not gonna take But that was scary times. Man,
take your car. Repo guys are like half p I
s too. I mean they come up with every way
to find you and get that car back. Yeah, you
did good for you. I saw a car repode one time.

(07:41):
I was like, I don't know, fourteen, fifteen years old,
and I was selling newspapers in front of the post
office and ear e p A. It was my summer job.
And as I'm standing there selling newspapers, they see this
big truck roll in and park into a parking spot
and then this this like unmarked police car come up
behind it and blocked it in. So then I'm like, Okay,

(08:04):
I wonder what's happening here. And the guy whose truck
it was comes out of the post office and walks up,
and then this guy gets out of the unmarked cop
car and then they start like arguing back and forth,
the guys trying to get into his truck, and then
the cop takes out a knife and flashes the back
tied and then the guy gets in his face. I

(08:27):
thought somebody was gonna get shot, like like ducking behind
a mailbox and then uh, and then like two minutes later,
a tow truck comes down and you know, hooks up
the truck that this guy's truck and then hauls it away.
And this guy comes over to me and says, you
saw everything right. That guy was an asshole. I'm gonna

(08:48):
sue his ass. I'm like, I'm just fourteen selling newspapers.
Don't want to have a part of that. Yeah, my
friend sorry, go ahead. And my friend owns a tow
truck company on Staten Island. He says, if you ever
want to see a grown man cry tow his car like,
because every time they are towing cars because either they're

(09:09):
parked in a parking lot they're not supposed to or
a meter, every grown man ends up crying to them
and with the same excuse of but I was just
it was just a second. It was the second. Please,
and my life is good in every man's life on
Staten Islands and shambles when you take away your car.
I mean it really, it really does. I mean you
can't go to work. There's and and what we've talked

(09:30):
about this a little bit. It costs so much money
to be poor, it's insane. So you're having a hard
time paying your your car note, and then on top
of that, now you're gonna pay an impound fee and
you have to pay for the toe, and sometimes they
damage your car and then you don't get to work,
like it's just this pile up on top of all
the other crap. Screw your friend, Garrett. But when the
suthing clearly says do not park in the Delhi only

(09:53):
for Deli customers, and you go next door to the bank,
you deserve to get towed. You deserve a ticket. You
deserve maybe like a six if it says on the
sign you're going to be But the so the other
thing I noticed too, you ever want to steal a car?

(10:13):
Because Elvis you asked if you ever stolen a car?
In my town, all the cars get stolen from seven
eleven because people decide to leave their car keys inside
the car keep keep. I don't know how much effort
did it take to turn off your car, but I
see this all the time. People who leave their car running,
they run into other convenient and their kids in the
backseat to that's an well on top of that too,

(10:37):
like when you park your car at your house. The
other thing people steal cars with they leave the keys
in the car like I've I've never left my you
know you do on occasion, but not every time. And
just asking for your car to my friend, my friend
had his car stolen right out of his garage. He
had the keys, he had to push the start, so
he left the keys on the dashboard where he always

(10:58):
leaves them, and he left his garage door opened, so
somebody just walked in, started the car with the push button.
We drove the car off. My favorite stories is there's
someone someone says, someone broke into my car this night
and stole all my cash. Well, how much can like
you're in your car? You put what do they do

(11:20):
for a living that they have? Well? I know, well,
I just why would you have it in your car?
Like what are you doing? And so I don't want
to say out loud, well you asked for that, but
I kind of wanted to. Yeah, my neighborhood, right, you
just victim shamed. In South Florida, the lady had her
car stolen then so the next day she was like
going around, Hey, somebody broke in my car. Listein stolen?

(11:41):
And I'm like, oh, okay, wellw'd that happen? Well I
left my purse and the keys and everything right on
the center console. Well then they didn't break in the
ship was right? Take it like, that's not breaking in,
It's right there. I mean, you just got in the
car push breaking in. No, you didn't break technology your
front door open and someone walks in and they're still
breaking in. There didn't it's a break in. It's still

(12:04):
a breaking of When you leave the keys in them
closed the door, it goes BB. So when you hear that,
you know that, and but people still walk away from it,
you know, and and that's how cars get stolen. Well, wait,
you know what happened to me at one of the
parking garages. I pulled my car in park, the park
the car, come back to get the car. They're like,
it took them like half an hour. They couldn't figure

(12:26):
it out. They finally realized that they had my automatic starter.
They dropped it in someone else's car and that person
already left. So they're like, um, we can't give you
your car. You're gonna have to call the dealership. So
I had to call the dealership, get them to make
a new key fob, which is right. They had to

(12:47):
pay for it, wait for the next day to go
pick it up, come back into the city. It was
such a mess. I was and what do they give
me from my nothing? Oh, you don't have to pay
first parking here today. Oh, thank you. That's friend to get.
Thanks so much. All right, well we've all agreed, we
all agreed that having a car's pan in the ace,
let's get rid of them and just help. That's what right,

(13:10):
Are we done? Ye? We're done? Yeah, all I hope
you have a great day everyone. Bye bye. The fifteen
