Speaker 1 (00:10):
I heard podcasts, hear more mix one or two point
three podcasts, playlists and listen live on the free iHeart app.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
All right, head to ahead with the topic.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
We are handing you the topic, and we're handing you
which side of the topic you're going to debate on,
Hailey and Max, and you have to go with it.
Sixty seconds on the clock. Now, mobile phones at red
lights should be allowed. Max Burford, you're affirmative on this one, okay.
Haley Pierson, you are negative on this one.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Diversial.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
This mean that when you stop at a red light,
you should be allowed to look at your mobile.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Phone, but only at the red light. Okay. I can
argue this.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
I would like to say, just before I get into it,
Grant Stevens, don't arrest me. I don't go on my
phone at the lights. I'm just fighting the cause for
those of us who sixty.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Seconds on the affirmative starts. Now, this law exists as
a revenue raiser.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
The absolute worst thing that can happen if we let
people look at their phones while stationary at a red
light is that occasionally someone's going to miss the light
turning green and they'll need a little too from the
car behind them. They made thirty million bucks in six
months from the mobile phone detection cameras. That's great. You
shouldn't text while you're driving. That is good cash. Reinvest
that in the state. But peeing a bloke for typing
in Google Maps at a stoplight is purely for money, money, money.
(01:29):
I don't want to doom scroll at the lights. I'm
not testerate to check my TikTok. I don't want to
feel guilty at a complete standstill checking a text from
my mother saying hey, check in on Dad, or a
message from my wife saying I know you're busy, but
can you call me a sap? Where's the society have
to cater to the silliest people, not the vast majority.
I am preempting Haley's argument here.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
True or false?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Haley, You're gonna say I can't be trusted even when
I'm stationary, because if I see a car move out
the corner of my eyes, I will start to move
and then I will run into the car in front
of me.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Probably true.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Here's a solution for you, Hailey, use your eyes, girlfriend,
look up, place your phone back down before smashing the
accelerator into that damn toyty yarras in front of you,
your selfish pig.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
We got in trouble for saying your selfish pig yesterday,
but it's a great saying.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I'm putting it in every argument because I love it.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
All right, Okay, shole to use mobile phones at the stoplight,
Haley Pearson, you are negative.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Go okay.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Firstly, it's the law for a reason, because you can
kill people. Here's a stat using your phone in the
car increases the risk of being involved in a serious
crash by ninety five percent. I'd like everyone to picture this.
You're at a red light. You're watching a video of
what underscored Big Girl cast eats in one day. You
can't look away because it's fascinating. The light turns green.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
You don't move.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Suddenly, twelve angry drivers behind you are laying on their horns.
You panic, you drop your phone, You slam on the
gas and congratulations. You've just rear ended a bus, or
a group of cyclists, or a small group of children
crossing the road on their first day of school. All
you smashed straight into little Meggie Burford, who was just
crossing the road to go and do her weekly shop.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
At Freeville.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Don't what and you know what, You're not that important
unless you're directing a live heart plants plant. Nobody is
waiting for you to reply straight away. And by the way,
we live in Adelaide. What kind of person can't go
ten minutes without looking at your phone, pull over and
text someone back.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
It is a death track. Good well timed too, thanks mate. Wow,
strong argument. It's true love. Behalf of your argument was
what I said.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
Your argument was going to be, Yeah, you're good at
predicting things.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You know me to wear eyeballs.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Man, No, guys, when you're in your car, just focus
on driving. Yeah, yeah, it's dangerous.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
All right.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Well, we were on the phone yesterday afternoon and you said,
hang on, I'm going to read you something, and you
were to stop light.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
So null and void.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
That is a lie ber Joe. I never did that.
I pulled over to read you something.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Shapol's media line calling through.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Mobile phones at red lights when you stopped and there's
a red light, should it be allowed or not?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
We want you to weigh in, Yeah
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Call us thirteen one oh two three, And we want
to say right now, we don't want you to break
the law, but for the sake of this debate, which
side would you like to be the law call us

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
