Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today, we're gonna prank a substitute teacher who goes around
to different districts and fills in at elementary schools as
an art teacher.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Well, I thought you were just going to explain to
us what a substitute teacher was for a second.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Particularly this guy. His girlfriend reached out and said, lately
he's been having some strange experiences, mainly with other school staff. Oh. Interesting,
and that's why I'm going to pose as the vice
principal of the new school that he's attending tomorrow to
go over our game plan and make it just a
little bit weird. In your phone, tap right now, an, Hello, Hi,

(00:40):
this is Vice Principal Thomas Dugan from Elementary. Oh it's
Jeremy right.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Yeah, are you calling because I'm I am subbing there later.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Have you heard the joke? Why did the substitute teacher
bring a ladder to class? Uh? Huh so he could
reach his students? That's fine, Yes, it's trademark. You can't
use that one. Yeah, but we are super happy that
you're joining us, of course. And look, I'm sure you've
already heard all about in the news what happened to

(01:13):
our last art teacher. Mister Klein, So sorry.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
I didn't hear anything. I just thought it was just
a regular like he just needed a day off.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
It's a lot more than a day off. It's like
he's taken his career off. What like, have you heard
of the show Breaking Bad?

Speaker 2 (01:27):
I'm familiar with Breaking Bad.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, that's what happened, except he was cooking paint.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
What do you mean cooking? I mean that movie is
about message talking about what do you mean cooking?

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Date, he was like selling tainted paint to middle schoolers
and got into some turf war with an art teacher
from another school. It got really ugly. But again, you
can read all about it. It's in the news.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Okay, well google it.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Gets Apparently Netflix is going to interview a few folks
tomorrow about it for some docu series.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Well no, you're wait, are you serious? Netflix is going
to be at this school.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, they're they're in talks with us to do some
sort of series called Brushing Bad.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Yeah, it's a hole to do. It doesn't really involve you,
so you don't have to worry about it. It's just
nice to get back to normal and have an art
teacher who's not on FBI's Most Wanted So thank you.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
He was on the FBI list again.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
You know that's in the past. So the reason for
my call today is because Pickles got loose.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Well, who's what is Pickles? Oh?

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Okay, they didn't tell you about it. Okay, So Pickles
is the invisible emotional support hamster for the art class.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Invisible what are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (02:41):
I'm sorry, why are you laughing?

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Because I don't understand what you mean by I've heard
of animals in classrooms like a hamster, But you just
said he's an emotional hamster, emotional support hanster. But then
you said he was invisible.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Well, yeah, apparently mister Klein invented him one day when
he got too close to the fumes and the paint
mixer when mister Pickles was born.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
What is going on in what is going on in
his classroom? Is? So?

Speaker 1 (03:05):
I mean the kids, this is the big issue. The
kids all loved.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Pickles, but doesn't sound like Pickles.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Mister Klein got into a mood, said he ran out
the door one day. So we've had to come up
with a plan to kind of deal with this, and
that's where you come in.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Well, I'm just planning on coming there and teaching just.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Well yeah, but also a little bit more because when
you're about halfway into your first class, you'll hear an
announcement over the loud speaker and I'm going to play
a car crash sound effect. Why, well, I'll get to
that because I'm going to be in the background. You'll
hear me saying, oh no, no pickles, And I want
you to take the whole class and run out into

(03:45):
the parking lot.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Why would I do that?

Speaker 1 (03:48):
And I'll be out there on my knees sobbing in
front of a car time and then we can finally
be done with that whole chapter.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
This seems insane.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
I feel like, are you upset because I'm the one
that's gonna be holding him? Like you don't want to
be the hero. You can't hold him, but then you're
gonna have to try mouth to mouth on him to
try and save his life.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
I'm not doing mouth to mouth on a fake emotional
support animal.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Oh look, I'll level with you. A lot of parents
are upset that a drugged out art teacher created an
invisible glory hamster, so we have to put an end
to it.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
It is a lot that I'm stepping into I thought
I was just subbing in to be the art teacher
for a day.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Well you are, and now that you're part of the school,
you need to help us with the messaging to the children.
So just look shocked and scream pickles in horror. Can
you do that?

Speaker 2 (04:39):
No? I can't, No, I can't. I can't do this.
This is I'm sorry. This is not a good match.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
Are you can? Because your girlfriend Kat said that you
would be a perfect match for this.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
What what do you mean my girlfriend Cat? Why did
you talk to my girlfriend?

Speaker 1 (04:54):
At least she said you'd be a perfect match for
this prank phone call where the radio show Brook and
Jeffrey pranks you even without huffing a bunch of paint.
I think it works. Yeah, because my name is jeff
from Brook and Jeffrey in the morning, we're doing a
phone tap on you.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
Man.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Yeah, dude, your girlfriend Kat said that you're subbing it
at a new school and you've already had a few
weird experiences.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Oh my god, yeah I have.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
It's good. She wanted us to give you the craziest
one yet.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Oh you had me going, I mean, oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
I can't believe you're not willing to run out into
the parking lot and screen pickles. No until you brush bad.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Oh, I hope not week up every morning with phone
taps weekday mornings on the twenties, Brook and Jeffrey in
the morning
