Speaker 1 (00:00):
Is it my favorite time of the week. Absolutely, because
it's time to recognize our hero of the week. It's
broken Jeffrey in the Morning. In this week's hero is
a forty two year old guy named Kevin Slinkman, and
Kevin was shopping at a Walmart recently when he realized
(00:22):
the store had overcharged him for avocados.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Oh man, get back in there, Kevin, demand your money back.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
So you got this big box behemoth store and this
little guy who's just getting taken advantage.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Of an extra dollar, even.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Hard working American being done dirty. So Kevin did something
most of us wouldn't have the guts to do. He
called the cops on Walmart.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Okay, they stole his money, like a hero.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
So police police showed up, and Kevin told them the
whole story. Showed up.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
They're probably already in the parking lot.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
I mean he told them everything, including the part where
he accused Walmart of robbing him up charging him on
his groceries on purpose.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Oh, and that's when an interesting detail came out from
the story, because you see, Kevin wasn't in the normal
grocery line. He was in self checkout and accidentally overcharged
him himself for the avocados that he had just.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Bought self checkouts hard though, I don't blame that man.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Well, at the machine, he put down the wrong number
of avocados and instead of nine, he hit nine hundred
and ninety nine. Whoa, which is why his total was
over thirteen hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
That's why he's complete?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Why did he still pay it?
Speaker 1 (01:56):
It?
Speaker 5 (01:56):
Didn't call her help, He like calls his credit our company, Hey,
can you send my credit real quick?
Speaker 3 (02:01):
I'm gonna make a big purchase.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
But Kevin didn't think it was his fault. Never is
still blamed.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Walmart for the mistake stick on the screen.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Cops put Kevin in handcuffs because he just wouldn't let
it go, and they escorted him out of the store,
kicking and scream disorderly.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
There it is, and that.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Is why Kevin is our Wow of the week.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yes, walk em only in jail.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Now let's move on, get into the shot collar question
of the day with the true avocado of a man.
We call him Digital Jake.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Yeah, because he's got a brown pit. I was trying
to think.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
I thought it was the good kind of fat. Today's
especial day. It's the birthday of the infamous potato lady
of morning radio, our own Brook Falls.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
You do some commercial for potatoes.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
She's from Idaho. I'm shaped like again.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
I don't even really Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Okay, potatoes potato right now, James, I don't like.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
Tater's the woman who's been pulling the show together with
organic snacks and emotional blackmail. You're reciting daily quotes from
her favorite far right Republicans.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
That does brings us all together, not just daily really,
not just your favorite And even though we've all worked together.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
For years, how well do you all really know missus
Brooke Fox. We're gonna find out during a special Fox
Fact or Faux Fact plenty of twenty. I'll say, you
say number one through twenty, and I'll tell you a
fact about the life of Brook. You have to tell me,
is that a real Fox fact or a made up
(03:46):
faux Fact's my nickname oh Tat to honor her long
held belief that men should always come first. Jeffrey, let's
start with you today, Okay, going.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Backwards, I'm gonna do Brooks favorite number, number seventeen.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Jeffy Brook's final major in college was journalism. But did
you know she started out as a fine arts major.
Is that a fox factor? A faux fact?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I mean, none of that sounds true at all?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Fine?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Fine? Did she actually graduate made the degree in.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Journalism fine Arts? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
It all sounds like faux facts to me.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Just because I got a degree exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Wow, she was like a dance quiet tator.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Jeffrey says, faux fact, that's real, that's a Fox fact, right.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Where's your diploma?
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I don't know, I mean fine arts, Tater. I actually
don't know what I did do Fine Arts?
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Yeah, what you to fine Arts? At first?
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (04:50):
I like drying classicatory.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
And the only reason I did journalism is because it
was like small group in like the orientation and so
we got stuck with the journalism kids. And the woman
leading the orientation group. I thought she was so cool
and her and I was like, oh, I want to
be like her.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
She's so pretty and she was a journalism major.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
So I'm gonna do both.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
I give that story of three number seven Alexis. Right
before her radio career, Brooke worked as a bartender for
a place called Shaky's Tavern. One of her managers was
nicknamed one Eyed Dorothy. Is this a faux fact or
a Fox fact.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
You know, the thing is, we have heard all the
nicknames of the people, but there's the burger place she
worked out.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
I was doing people from.
Speaker 6 (05:42):
Your hometown that have all the nicknames that I recognized, Dorothy,
and you worked at a burger place. I think Jake
pulled it from that.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
I'm gonna say what you're saying.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
It's like, I hear a lot of hot Brook old
town words, but I don't know if it makes sense.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
Brook talk about a bartending days and shaky. Ever, I'm
gonna say faux.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Fact says that's a faux fact. Yeah, one Dorothy sadly
passed away.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I I Dorothy, she.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Did Jose, it's your turn.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Let's go number three.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Jose Brooke once got kicked out of a bar. Hang on, true,
I'm still continuing the story for aggressively kissing a patron.
Is that a faux fact or a Fox fact?
Speaker 3 (06:27):
That was shaky?
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Like, please get back to work.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
I mean, it's hard to put your finger on Brook
because sometimes she's like, I was wild and I kissed everyone,
and then she's like, but then I turned to leave,
strong independent woman.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
You know, I mean, I guess you.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Like, can't you kiss everyone and be a strong independent?
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I don't understand why there's a division.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
That's what the far right always says.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
So what I'm saying is I could see her getting
kicked out of a bar for like a guy's like
no means no, and she's like, but I don't think
she would ever cross that line.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
So I'm gonna say faux fact.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Jose says, that's a faux fact.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Explain. Yeah, oh, I was at a gay bar and.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Was really drunk, and I started making out with this
guy I know who is not not gay and not gay. Well,
it's like he was straight and I was straight, and
it's not a cute look to be two straight people
making out in a gay bar.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
So like, yeah, I'm kind of embarrassed by it.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Still, it's like, you know, it's their safe space, not
my hetero space.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Back dark corner.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
I will say that it was a dark corner. That's good.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
And I did continue to kiss him outside either too.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
If that makes the story any better, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
That means you have one today.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Plenty of you know broke.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Yeah, So Alexis gets to choose who gets shocked while
singing work it by Missy Elliott.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Who's it going to be, jeff You didn't even know
her degree?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Come on, okay here, Like, why do you always say
unaccredited college too?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I have never seen it, so you have to it?
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Is it worth it? Let me work flipping umber first?
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Yet that was actually better.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
That's your shock collar questions again?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
You kiss us coming up right after
