(03:35):
predict the future. We can.We are fortunate totally on that specific thing.
Yes, all right, Nick,let's get to some side crime stories.
That's what people are here for.They want to hear what went on
wacky. So speaking the word speakingof being able to tell the future,
here's a here's a wacky story.Um. This is from Trip Life,
(03:57):
written by Rich Chilodowski. So ifFarmers pronounced your name, yes, man
tells Westmoreland County judge he thought hewas a time traveler when he led police
on high speed chase. I knowmy next he thought he was Doc Brown
or or or doctor who or doctorwho? But now I was just I
(04:19):
was just putting the car reference.Yeah, back to the future yep.
A Virginia beach man told a WestmorelandCounty judge he believed he was a time
traveler who was in desperate need tosave his son from a corrupt government when
he stole a car field shopping plaza. Wow okay, and later led police
(04:40):
in a high speed forty mile chaseon the Pennsylvania Turnpark Turnpike last year.
He's been on that synthetic marijuana.I mean, which corrupt government. They're
all corrupt. They're all corrupt.They've been corrupt since the you know,
start of governments. So I meanhe's right, so again that that's another
(05:00):
that we can tell the future thatthe next government will be corrupt because all
the governments are corrupt. I stolea car because I was tired of walking,
Thomas W. Lee said, shuringaccord hearing on Tuesday. There's the
real answer, not because you're atime travel but because your feet hurt.
I thought I was a time travelerbecause I was on drugs. I wasn't
trying to hurt anybody. I wasjust trying to save my son. Okay.
(05:24):
Just because you're a time traveler doesn'tmean you can steal someone's car.
I'm just saying, here's what I'mgonna say. If he's saying he was
tired of walking, I would givehim the advice of maybe he should look
into some doctors shoulder yeah, orfind a bench or take or find a
bus. Lee thirty nine, pleadedno contest to twenty four charges included aggravated
(05:46):
assault with a vehicle, drunken driving, fleeing police, resisting arrests, and
numerous traffic offenses in connection with anincident last September twenty ninth that started at
green Gate Center Plaza in hip Field. There you go, he had a
lot of hempfield, that's for sure. Police said. Lee stole a twenty
thirteen Nissan Ultima after its occupant leftthe vehicle to enter a local pizza shop.
(06:10):
So the guy was going to pickup a pizza and then he couldn't
take the pizza home because his carwas stolen. Oh that sucks, according
to court report court records, policelocated the vehicle about two hours later near
Cheswick in Allegheny County and pursed italong the Pennsylvania Turnpike at speeds that exceeded
one hundred miles per hour. Wow. Just remember why you see. That's
(06:35):
that's my thing. When people stealvehicles, why do you go so fucking
fast? It's not your car,so you can just like fucking give her,
I know, but it gives youaway. That's true too, yes,
yes, And looking back to thefuture, you only need to go
at eighty seven miles an hour totravel back was wow, a lot of
(06:58):
time travel a lot then on theinterstate. That's that's pretty eighty seven miles.
I don't know if that is inkilometers, but it's I know sixties
one hundred. But what is theinterstate there? The interstate in Candid Yeah,
we have kilometers here, so it'sone hundred, which is like fifty
five sixty Oh no, See themiles per hour here on the interstate is
(07:20):
seven. Oh nice? Nice.Yeah. The problem is when I drive
to the US, because our carshave both, right, the kilometers and
the miles, and when I goget there, it's like go sixty.
It's like okay, and I'm goingmuch. I'm like, oh wait,
sixty miles to sixty kilometers that's much. See when it says seventy you go
eighty yeah, well yeah same here, Like when I see it, like
(07:42):
it's seventy kilometers A A eedy kilometers, don't tell the police A thirty said.
Lee exited the turnpike in Irwin andcontinued to speed on Route thirty,
traveling both east and westbound. Atone point during the case, he intentionally
swerved into a police vehicle. Accordingto court records, I'd do the same
in GTA. Uh. Yes,the chase. That was kind of a
(08:05):
stupid move on his part. Thechase ended after Lee ran over a spike
strip used by police to deflate thecar's tires. Police said Lee veered off
the toll road and careened over anembankment, into a grassy stone culvert and
then round. Oh and he fuckedthe person's car up. But you know
what that person was probably like,thanks great. Now I have my pop
(08:26):
tires and a cold pizza because itwasn't able to bring it home. I'd
be more pissed about the pizza becausethe car is an insurance discovery. Police
said they twice shot Lee with ataser before he was taking into custody.
Twice geez, he's on drugs?Then oh yeah. Lee initially told the
judge he intended to challenge his case, but ultimately wanted it to be immediately
(08:48):
resolved, saying he believed he wasin danger of sexual assaults when incarcerated at
the county jail. He pleaded nocontest all counts west Moreland County Common Police
Court Judge Meghan Billick de Fazio andpose terms of the negotiated deal that called
for Lee to serve five to tenyears in prison. Prosecutor said Lee had
(09:09):
no prior convictions in Pennsylvania, buthad a lengthy criminal record that included included
offenses in six other states. Sohe just hops from state to state.
He's time traveling state hop and he'stime traveling from state to state. So
um, yeah. Lesson is ifyou're if you're a time traveler, don't
(09:30):
steal cars. It doesn't really exemptyou from the law. You know,
invest in Some doctors find a venture, sit on the ground, an uber,
get get an uber. Yeah,exactly, unless you travel to the
past and you can't get an uberbecause everyone would be a commune. That's
true, that's true, depending onwhat. So this next story is completely
(09:52):
different. This is from your favoritethe huff Post by huff David Boy.
Mysterious hard object inside Catfish turns outto be sex toy. M Two Indiana
fishermen got a secret toy surprise afterone of them caught a blue catfish on
(10:15):
the Ohio River last week. Butlast week was like a month ago because
this articles from June, like earlyJune. So um, you should have
seen the one that got away.When Richard Kessar of Shelbyville, Indiana,
took his friend John Hoop fishing onthe Ohio River last week, the goals
were hooped to land his first bluecatfish. Well he did, but this
(10:35):
fish came with a secret toy surprise, a sex toy to be specific.
And there's a warning. The photobelow is not safe for work. Thankfully,
I'm not at work. That's agiant home. My lord, that's
your giant dildo with balls and everything. Oh look it's even gotten vain.
(10:56):
Wow, that's that's that's realistic.Okay, Look you know what That dildo
went deep inside of it. Itwas beyond elbow deep. How is he
was gonna eat? The problem isthat fish was gonna die anywhere? Yes,
no, there's no way that itcould have survived that massive rubber dish
(11:18):
cheez silicone ding than it's common tofind other fish, sometimes turtles, muskrats,
and other animals. He told thestation. It was until later in
the day that he actually pressed downthe catfish's abdomen and felt too hard objects
that he knew couldn't be eggs.When they returned to Cassar's home and cut
open the catfish, I assume thecatfish was already dead at this point,
(11:39):
they discovered what was bulking up thefish's tummy, a foam ball, part
of another fish, and oh,a fairly large sized dildo, or,
as Kesser referred to it, theother object, the other hard objects dildo,
the other other white meat. Well, this still does kind of rownish.
(12:00):
It's a bit of a darker that'sfixed to say. It's a little
bit more of a dark knight there. Kesser posted photos of the catfish and
that of their object on his Facebookpage. Or An immediately aroused her interest
to the tune of more than nineteenthousand shares as a Friday afternoon I'm glad
this guy had a blast writing thisarticle. He's been he's been reading a
(12:24):
little bit of Ben Hooper, Yes, Ben Hooper. It has also created
some challenges for him as the dadof a three year old girl. Oh
no, what now? When itcame out John, John, my wife
and I started laughing, he toldw X I n My wife immediately covered
my daughter's eyes and turned her awayfrom it. The daughter keeps asking what
(12:48):
it is. That's probably a conversationfor a different time, Cassar told huff
Pote. Cass Start told huff Postvia Facebook that Hoop has the fish,
but he didn't think his fishing companionhad eaten it yet. Meanwhile, he
still has the oh it did.Meanwhile, he still has the other object,
(13:09):
but probably not for much longer.I don't have any use for it,
he said. Good lord, Ilike how you said, you know
that catfish literally gobbled a dick.I gotta know how did that happen?
They? I mean, he putthe dick in his mouth, But why
was the dick there? I don'tknow. Maybe somebody was using it on
(13:31):
a boat out in the lake anddropped it and he's like, oh,
that's gone, dropped it. Ormaybe they had it filming their only fans
of video. It suctioned on somethingfell off. I don't know. I
mean, how else would you explainthat? Or maybe somebody just said,
you know what I don't need tostildo anymore and chalked it off in the
(13:52):
lake instead of selling it on Facebookmarketpl I used dido you can, I
don't have this tan the cock.Yes, and it's lightly used by a
catfish, but lately used pretty funnythat a catfish found that to think here,
And that's not like I thought originallywhen I saw the headline, was
(14:13):
like going to be like a buttplug, not a massive dildo. I
mean that's a big that's that's amassive older. That's a math it is.
I mean, that's that's like moviequality. Yeah, you have had
him, Yeah, you and Ihave have smaller Johnson's and that could be
(14:35):
an average one. Well, I'mnowhere near that. That's a that's a
monster. You get light headed whenyou look. Ron. Jeremy ain't even
close to the no, but heis in prison, so he's close to
a lot of a lot of dicks. Yeah, yeah, he may have
seen one close to that now,big bubba, yeah, big bubba.
(15:00):
All right, that's next story hasnothing to do with dildas or This is
actually more of a kind of amystery. It was kind of more of
an exciting thing that was in theNews. This is from UPI on June
thirtieth, so this is very recentand it was written by Yes. Yes.
(15:22):
Here is the headline, abandoned BurgerKing found behind wall at Delaware Mall.
Officials at a Delaware mall said theywere blown away when a wall at
the shopping center turned out to behiding something unexpected, a completely intact Burger
King restaurant with vintage decor what vintageBurger King? That's insane. Tom Delk,
(15:50):
general manager of the Concord Ball inWilmington, said he was unaware of
the eatery until a photo recently snappedby mall vendor Jonathan Pruett went viral on
Twitter. It's kind of cool.When I first saw it, I was
blown away myself, Doc told wpviv. Doc said he does not know
how long the Burger King has beenabandoned and concealed behind a wall because the
(16:12):
current management company took over in Januarytwo, twenty okay. Twitter user at
loser sk wad responded to the viralpost with her own video of the Burger
King, saying the facility was usedas a storage room for a seasonal job
she had at the mall in twentynineteen, indicating that the previous management team
(16:32):
was aware of the defunct business.Doc took Newcastle County Executive Matt Mayer on
a tour of the Burger King,and a video of the visit was shared
on the Newcastle County Government's Facebook page. Doc said the former Burger King will
soon be available for rent. Itis kind of cool to have something that
nostalgic here in the building. We'rehopeful to rent it out and have it
occupied soon. He said. Now, if you haven't seen the picture of
(16:56):
this Burger King, it is avery nostalgic. It brings you too,
like the eighties. That's insane,man, it's very very I know,
like I was watching, you know, you get down the YouTube rabbit hole
and sometimes I come across these,you know, urban Explorer videos, and
there's one where someone went into anabandoned McDonald's that was I want to say
(17:19):
it wasn't quite eighties, but itwas definitely nineties, probably early. And
a lot of these plays because like, regular people can't franchise McDonald's. It's
just too expensive. So it's usuallycompanies that that do it. And if
a McDonald's location isn't profitable. It'sactually just cheaper for McDonald's to just abandon
it then you know, move itor something. Yeah, because of franchise
(17:44):
of McDonald's is a million dollars.Yeah, like you and I aren't you
know getting that. No, yournormal Joe Blow is not gonna be able
to open to McDonald's. I hadto be somebody with money or company.
Ye. So um. I mean, I wouldn't be shocked if there's other
like Burger Kings around somewhere. It'sjust weird that at a mall because you're
(18:04):
losing out on that revenue to havethat space. Well, it was behind
a wall so they didn't know,so it was probably just close shop at
some point. What would really becool if Burger King actually runs should That
would be cool because if I wasthe CEO at Burger King, I'd be
like, let's get that back andwe're gonna leave it exactly like this,
(18:26):
and you get like the old theold uniforms and everything. Think of the
possibilities too, because you have popularmovies and TV shows now set within stranger
nineties. That's becoming nostalgic and vintage. Now. I hate to say that
because we were kids, but butthink about that. You have stranger things
like you just said, right,um, you have movies, more movies
(18:48):
right now being set in the eightiesand early nineties, that Burger King and
that mall could be perfect for youto use because it's already set to that
era. You have to change andyou got to put a staff in.
That's it. Granted the staff.I'll have no idea what half the stuff
is because yeah, I mean it'sI mean, you could always update the
(19:10):
back. You could always update theback, but leave the fund before the
old late eighties, early nineties burgerKing, that's perfect. Well, it's
like it's funny. He's talking tomy wife about this, like literally this
past weekend and talking about she sawsomething where someone said, like, how
did pizza drivers deliver pizza before GPS? And it's like they knew the roads
(19:34):
maps. Yeah, I mean thatwas that was the common thing. I
mean, think about this. I'velived in my hometown majority of my life.
We left here back into two fifteenfourteen whatever, lived in Dothan,
Alabama and Enterprise for two years.I know all the roads up here.
(20:00):
So if I was a pizza deliveryfor our hometown pizza place, I probably
wouldn't really need a GPS. Iknow the area, see so I mean
people became pizza drivers in there andI started driving. I'm useless with directions.
I need a GPS for everything,even here. I'm okay. I
live in a very small town,so to get to anywhere is there's like
(20:22):
one road where I grew up,I know, because again small town.
However, they they're really developing whereI used to live. So I'm sure
if someone said, delivered to thisstreet, I wouldn't know where that street
is because it didn't exist when Iwas a kid. But probably I mean
there's a lot of neighborhoods here nowthat didn't exist prior to that, but
(20:45):
I would still know vicinity of where. My father in law just bought a
new used car. I think it'stwo thousand and eight and has like a
built in GPS in it, andmy wife look look looked at it.
Our house does not exist on ourstreet, doesn't exist on it. Yeah,
so it needs to be I needknow how you updated it In those
(21:06):
old cars. You put a DVDin the CD drive with the map data
uploads. Yeah, at one point, then they switched it over to a
thumb drive and then now you justcan now yeah does its own thing.
Yeah, just done through satellite andeverything else. So all right, so
that was a happy stories. Nowwe're going back to a We're going back
(21:27):
to more of a crime related story. This is from There is no dildos
involved in this one. Something worsethan dildos. Actually, this is from
the huff Post. Uh. It'sa little over a month old, June
seventh. Um, do not knowwho wrote it. They don't have a
name on it. AP or huffPost, mister huf Post himself. Here's
(21:51):
the headline. Hundreds of cockroaches releasedin an Albany courtroom during a hearing.
Yes, a courthouse in upstate NewYork was closed for fumigation Tuesday after hundreds
of cockroaches were released during an altercationthat broke out and an arrangement. According
to the something Saul Goodman would doand better call Saul. Yes, I
(22:17):
mean this does sound like something thatwould happen in a film or a TV
show, it says. The clashbroke out during proceedings in Albany City court
for four people for an arrest atthe state Capitol. A defendant who started
to film the courtroom proceedings was toldto stop. In the altercation that followed,
hundreds of cockroaches brought into the courthouseand plastic containers were released. According
(22:41):
to the State Courthouse, here's allI have to say. Here's what I
have to say. The security peopleor the officers at this courthouse suck a.
You can't bring a gun in,but you can bring cockroaches in.
They got They put it through alittle bank thing. They put it through
the thing. It shows you what'sin it. I mean, come on
(23:02):
the bug that says the bug releasewas being investigated. While the courthouse was
closed with the rest of the dayfor fumigation. Court officers arrested a thirty
four year old woman in the audiencefor charges related to the altercation, including
disorderly conduct, obstructing governmental administration,and tampering with physical evidence. She was
released, and it was not immediatelyclear whether she had an attorney to speak
(23:25):
on her behalf. What transpired isnot advocacy or activism. It is criminal
behavior with the intent to disrupt aproceeding and cause damage. Read a statement
from the Office of Court Administration.So there you go. Hundreds of cockroaches
released into a coin. It didits job. It's stuff everyone to delay
(23:47):
your trial. That's one way todo it. Probably not the way I'd
go, but it's one way todo it. Nope, because now there's
other charges being added. So whoeverreleased these cockroaches obviously was the thirty four
year woman that they specified in thisit's arrested. But my thing is is
how did that get through security atthe front. I have no idea,
(24:10):
no idea unless they don't have thebag check thing and just walk from a
metal detector, right so, andthey had it, probably had the cockroaches
in like tublewaar or something like that, and he got ready to let him
go. You just I wonder ifit was like the little tiny bad ones
there was like the big crunchy brownones. I don't know. Cockroaches give
me the v They're gross. Imean, they're nasty. They're just nasty
(24:33):
in general. But you know whatwould have even been scarier if it had
left a bunch of There's a lotof spiders in my basement, um,
because I can see them occasionally,and the worst I don't know where they
come from, but um, I'lljust be looking and I'll just see something
moving on the wall over here tolook, it's just a big spider.
It's like, oh good, nicecrunch it. If you really wanted to
(24:55):
cause mass hysteria, you could havejust let out thousands of termites and nobody
would have ever noticed until the wallcame down. You know, if you
really wanted to cause destruction or adisruption, just release termites. That's that
you didn't get this idea from us. May take a year. You did
(25:15):
not get it from me. Iam not responsible for your fucking damage.
Although whatever you do a bunch oftermites. So yes, instead of a
thousand, I'm going to release million, million dollars termites. All right.
(25:36):
So this next one is from Manuser, written by Jenn Gidman, and it's
man accused of Disney scheme involving Rtwo D two statue. Okay, already
say David Proudfoot, posed as DisneyWorld worker, moved droid replica. Okay,
(25:59):
here is my thing. Before weever get into the story, people
are gonna notice that it's right,regardless if you're a worker or because you're
at Disney point doesn't mean you couldtake They don't take them home with them.
They no, no, they don'tmove them either. I mean,
they're usually a group of people movingthat stuff and it's usually fucking blocked off
at the According to authorities, DavidProudfoot posed as a worker at disney World
(26:23):
and moved a ten thousand dollars replicaof R two D two from its place
at Goring. To Proudfoot, hewas just trying to do the park a
favor. Okay, what was thatfavors? Fuck? I mean, did
he want it in a different spotor something like? It's not being it's
(26:44):
not being just enough sunlight. Ithink it needs to be more observed on
the park. It doesn't have enoughsunlight. R two D two solar power.
He needs some fair taking it outfor a walk, to walk your
R two D two at least twicedaily. Yeah, I'm I mean I
love R two D two two.I mean, I know you can't see
you on camera here. I havea shelf that's on top of this door
(27:07):
up here that has you know,an R two D two, the big
one toy from Kenner from the nineteenseventies, from the first line of Star
Wars toys. I love R dt R two D two, But I'm
not about to go trying to stealthe ten thousand dollars replica from thirty five
reports. The forty four year oldKissing Me resident was arrested on May thirty
first, after deputies from the OrangeCounty Sheriff's Office responded to a call at
(27:32):
the Swan Reserve Hotel. Or Disneysecurity officers say they spotted Proudfoot pushing a
cart around the property and became suspicious. Proudfoot, who deputy say was wearing
a Disney name tag with David inscribedon it, claimed he was an employee
at another Disney hotel, the YachtClub Resort. Don't think he is anymore
if he was. However, whenone of the officers tried to help him
(27:56):
with the cart, Proudfoot seemed confusedas to where the loading docks were,
and so they called the police.When deputies arrived, they say Proudfoot Proudfoot
first told him his name was DavidRogers and that he'd been tasked to move
items from one Disney location to another. I don't think they would have one
person do that. I think thatwould be no and there's probably a team.
(28:18):
So I think Disney has enough moneythat they wouldn't just move one thing
to another thing, would just buildanother one? Did you know? The
story started to undraffle when a deputybrought him to the yacht Clip Resort to
get his belongings and he once moreseemed confused and couldn't open his supposed employee
locker. That's what deputy says.He noticed Proudfoot had a wallet on this
person which held an idea with hisreal name if it admitted to moving the
(28:42):
R two D two from the SwanHotels third floor to an unknown location,
as well as moving a game machine. What a game machine? He wanted
an arcade too? What the fuckwas he going to load this in his
Honda Civil? I feel like thisguy drove a Honda Civic ninety seven hundred.
(29:07):
I feel like this guy. Ifeel like, Nah, he didn't
take a bus or you know what, maybe he did took the bus right
there? And kissing Me, uh, you know because kiss Me's right outside
of Land kind of runs into eachother center of Florida, right, Well
you have, we'll see Disney World'slocated at what's called Winter Park. But
(29:30):
Winter Park and Kissing Me they allrun together. Yeah, that's still pretty
much told authorities he had no plansto actually take the items off Disney property,
and that his motives had been good. He had an application pending for
a security guard position with the park, and so had wanted to show weaknesses
in the security of the resorts.According to an affidavit, Yeah, that's
(29:51):
that's what we want. That's whatwe want. Yeah. Yeah, as
soon as you come in here,you probably have a bunch of kiddy por
on your Police carried out a searchwarrant at his home. They say they
found Disney item for thousands of dollars, including a seven hundred dollars gold necklace,
at several bathroom light fixtures per longcrime. So he wanted a job
(30:12):
in security still from Disney. Noone would suspect the security guard. You
know, Proudfoot, What did youtake? Fixed Foot? I did by
w d W News today as aformer school principal. What's accused of stealing
fifteen thousand dollars for a Baltimore Areasschool system. I'm sensing a pattern here.
(30:33):
Is now facing Yes, he's atcharges a third degree grant theft and
obstruction by false information, among others. He's being held on eight thousand,
one hundred and fifty dollars bond.That's a very specific amount at the Orange
County Jail. Read more weird crimeStars and there's a link to more weird
crime stars there. You. Yeah, my take on this story, und
(31:00):
it's funny, But I mean youreally think the story was scary? Do
you? What's scary? Stupid?Yeah? I mean I don't understand how
this guy really thought he was goingto get away with an R two D
two ten thousand dollars rapless So you'retalking, I mean this is probably life
(31:22):
size R two D two. Howare you going to move this from one?
I don't get it. I don'tunderstand. You know how many cameras
are all Disney World and they seethis guy rolling a fucking R two D
two out into the fucking parking lot. No, you don't. You don't
think people is going to be justlike no, come on, yeah,
(31:45):
no, you're not stealing anything outof Disney. You're you're going to get
caught. Yes, you're going toget caught. You're very stupid. Uh
mister what was his real name?Yeah, Proudfoot or excuse me as he
wanted to go buy David Rodgers norelation to Aaron Rodgers or maybe I don't
know. No, no, Sothis next one is also from newser and
(32:08):
this one's written by Arden Deer orDier. I'm not trying to say your
last dame. I apologize. Theyshowed up to arrest his son. Out
came the excavator. Oh excuvate forall you people out there and who have
kids, and my blippy child's notthat old, is not old enough for
(32:30):
that yet? Yeah yeah, watchlike you know, because again she doesn't
understand anything. So we're watching likeOzark the Umbrella Academy, like all these
the gory shows. She has noidea. She's laughing. Yeah, just
white. Eventually it will like Copelandright now is obsessed with Blippy and one
(32:51):
of his songs is I'm an excuvatexcovader. Yeah, that's a whole song
on XM. Vermont's Wayne Tallman isnow facing charges as his son Brandon scenario
at the Academy. Will we practicethis one? So Vermont State Police captain
(33:13):
and Matt Daily tells WCAX of anincident that saw two troopers threatened by the
swinging of sorry, threatened by theswinging bucket of an excavator. Yes,
there's actually a video to this too. If I can get the video,
I'll put it on. Then Iwill put images from images from We won't
(33:36):
have to sound, but i'll getthe I'll get the pictures. That arrived
at Wayne Tollman's home in Hardwick onJune twelve to arrest Brandon Tallman. I
hope he's short, because that'd befunny his twenty four year old son an
assault and burglary charges stemming from anincident days prior. Per The New York
Post, it did not go smoothly. Dash Camp video shows the troopers wrestling
with Brandon and his mother Amy nextto a driveway as an excavator allegedly operated
(34:00):
by Wayne moves toward them. Thebucket swings over the top of a police
suv, then repeatedly drops, gettingcloser and closer to the top of the
vehicle. That's, um, you'rejust asking for it. I'm just saying
could, Yeah, you're asking forit. At the same time, it's
like, you know, I don'twant to bring up, you know,
pulling out a weapon. But Imean, if you're about it's tires,
(34:23):
I mean that ain't gonna do youany good. The bucket still works,
and let me tell you something.Shooting the bucket angle, you know,
the excavator itself moves forward in thedirection of the troopers, who are seen
shouting at the operator to stop.After a muffled conversation, the bucket swings
toward the troopers. One who's holdingthe two figures on the ground, falls
(34:45):
backwards to get out of the way. The second, who standing jumps back
then points a service weapon at theperson the machine. It could have been
shut turn around and put your handson your back. You're under restaurant assault,
and they would have driven away,Daily tells WCA. Instead, Wayne
Tallman was arrested for aggravated assault ona protected official, resisting arrest, impeding
(35:06):
an officer in reckless engagerment, whilehis wife was issued a citation for impeding
an officer. I am going tosay that this kid's problem are his parents,
Yes, it's his parents. Yes, I was fixed to say it.
Look, if the cops come foryour kid and he's honestly been a
(35:27):
theft, he did, an armedrobbery or whatever he did, right,
just accept the fact. Okay,just accept the fact. Do it the
right way. Because if you doit the right way, because now what's
happened is now you you've been arrestedalong with your son. I hope you
don't have any dogs because they're notgetting fed right now because you got aggravated
(35:50):
assault on a he said. Shesaid, the situation, it's oh yeah,
yeah, well that's the video.That's the video you can find,
which I did want to the video. I had it up a while here
while I was you were reading it. The video, I mean you could
clearly see he's like agging the policeon. He like had the bucket over
the top of the squad car,the squad issue B and it like he
(36:14):
like mimicking like he's fixing to hitit with it. Then he starts moving
it over the officers and they're likeback in the hell, which obviously you
would. It's a damn bucket.He sits it down going real fast.
Yeah that's gonna hurt. So yeah, there you go. Stupid stupid Where
I closed the story, but itwas in probably Florida, but I don't
(36:35):
think it was actually let me reopenit. Vermont. Yeah, I really
Vermont. Well, we've never hada story usually it's interesting. They must
be transplant from Florida. They couldbe, Yes, good Bee, Yes,
all right, then, well,all right, Blippy, you're teaching
(36:59):
excavator at cancel early Bunny. CancelBlippy and what does he said? He
goes, let me tell you howto spell blippy b L I. No,
it's c A N B C EL L E ed canceled. All
(37:22):
right, let's move on. We'regetting close to the end of this episode,
so let's let's move on to anotherstory. This one comes from Newser
Also is written by John Ruis Johnson. It is cruel. He is part
of the Newser's staff. The headThis is from June twenty third, so
it's not too too far back.Man allegedly steals cop car and then responds,
(37:45):
what the auto? You can steala cop car? Then go on
cop missions, Yeah you can.It's one thing to steal a marked police
car. It's another to respond toan emergency call in that same car.
Yes, authorities in Teller County,Colorado, says Jeremiah James Taylor, thirty
three, same age. Hey Lucathere, Nick, Yeah, well I'm
(38:07):
not quite there. I guess wellyou got six weeks. I'm already thirty
three. I've been thirty three forsix months now. Did just that this
week, reports k DVR, whichwasn't this week, it was wealth technically
was last week, So there yougo. The county Sheriff's office says Taylor
first told the vehicle from a sheriff'sfacility at about three a m. Monday,
(38:31):
then responded to a domestic violence callthat came over the radio about thirty
minutes later. Okay, but hewent and he didn't steal. He went
from the sheriff's office. That isvery palsy. In fact, he was
allegedly first on the scene, promptingthe couple at the house to complain to
(38:53):
a dispatcher that the responding deputy seemeddrunk. It'sa Taylor fled the same when
actual deputies arrived. According to thesheriff's office, the vehicle was spotted again
about two hours later, hit,leading to a high speed chase that ended
(39:14):
with Taylor running into Woods, sayauthorities. He was arrested there on charges
including comparsonating a peace officer, cartheft, posisting arrest, and reckless driving.
Taylor also reportedly suffered self inflicted ninewounds before his arrest, but he
was treated and released from the hospital, then transferred to the county jail.
So there you go. What anidiot? Like, what was the purpose
(39:38):
of that? What was the wholepurpose of stealing a cop car from the
sheriff's department? I might add therewas striking to think you know that wants
to be a copper, wants tobe like a paramedic or something. Yeah,
yeah, the car and then theyrespond because they want to be that.
No, this was Could you imaginethe couple when he showed up wearing
(40:04):
short T shirt, jean short.What's happening is that? A? I
look, he don't even drink beer. It's like that is smearing off in
your hand green apple probably had clubsand sucks. Oh no, he was,
he was no. Look, hewas one of those guys that had
(40:25):
the cargo shorts on, had hisunderwear sticking up out of it, and
he had a barefoot They were allblack, like like grocery store feet that
we call him here in Alabama inthe South, grocery store feet, and
had like a smearing off green applein his hand with a backwards sout.
So what's up, what's up?Where's the party? Where's the party?
(40:49):
I heard that? I heard acall came as quick as I could first
person to respond to the call toor not amazing, Yeah he's got some
yeah well skills, you know,yeah, or he didn't have anything else.
This guy was not well. Allright, Here comes the last story
(41:10):
for this episode, and this onekind of ties back to my favorite story
that I was obsessed with was theMonuments. If you remember back the monuments,
these mysterious metal monuments that were appearingall over the world and nobody knows
who was placing them there. Itwas possibly uf Who's or it was just
(41:34):
an art installation, you know whatI'm talking about. Nick. I think
we talked about yeah, yeah,and we did a I think we did
like a mini series on it onfreaking After Show. So there's another mysterious
object that has shown up, Nick. This is from UPI, written by
(41:55):
Bober June twenty fourth, So thisis last week. Miniature house installed in
San Francisco Park is a mystery.Okay, I'm gonna guess see this goes
with the simulation theory that but there'slike a SIMS Tiny House. This is
(42:17):
like a SIMS Tiny House expansion pack. So I mean someone was playing the
SIMS and poof, you know,they pause the game you build whatever,
and you unpause it and it's justthere, it says. Park officials in
San Francisco said they not they donot know who installed the latest attraction in
Golden Gate Park, a miniature houseplaced atop a thirty foot tall tree stump.
(42:39):
The miniature model of a Victorian homehas been drawing its own visitors to
the southern entrance of the Golden GatePark. An officials said they first noticed
the dimututive dwelling about six weeks ago. It says the blue and yellow house
bears a handwritten message on the inside, where there is hatred, let us
(43:00):
so love. San Francisco Recreation andPark officials said they do not know the
origins of the art installation. Asfar as we can tell, it appeared
about six weeks ago without explanation.Parks spokesman Tamera A. Parts And told
s F Gate Recreation and Parks Generalmanager Phil Ginsburg said he has instructed his
(43:20):
staff not to remove the tiny house. I'm guessing it's like a Ukraine thing,
because if they're gonna get up withthe color of the Ukraine flag,
and I don't know, I thinkit's it's an art installation, which I
do think the monuments. Like Iused to say, oh, there's probably
aliens, but it's not aliens.The monument thing was obviously an art installation.
What it was for, I don'tknow. This is obviously an art
(43:42):
installation. It would be really coolif you started seeing these little tiny houses
just pop up in parks all overall over the world. That would be
really cool because obviously it's inspirational onthe inside of the house, because people
are gonna go look, right,They're gonna go look in this house.
And I like that. It's inspirational, it draws attention, and it's a
(44:04):
really cool art installation because if you'rewatching the TV show, you'll see there's
a picture of it here. It'sactually a nice looking model of a house.
It's actually pretty. It's not it'scrappy at all. It's not your
it's not built with what do youcall it, the little wooden sticks,
popsicle sticks? You know, it'sactually a nice bottle of a house.
(44:28):
Somebody took some time and some effortin building this. So there you go.
Yeah, and a good job SanFrancisco. Yeah, the part part
reps keep it. That's great.I like that. Obviously we did have
a few more stories. I'll kindof mention them real quick. We won't
we won't really dive into them.An Iowa man's gravestone raised some controversy nick
(44:52):
over a hidden profanity. This wasalso written by Ben Hooper. M.
Yeah, well here's what it had. I just had to read the headstone
message Okay, forever in our heartsuntil we meet again, cherished memories known
as our son, brother, father, papa, uncle, friend, and
cousin cousin. But the formatting ofthe type with the first letters of each
(45:15):
line spelled out fuck off. Soif you write it down and you put
it down, it literally spells fuckoff. And look the fish the trustees
of this place they're having, they'rebasically wanting them to change the headstone.
Here's my opinion, fuck off.It's the person's headstone. That's what they
(45:37):
wanted. Leave it alone. Justleave it. Who cares? Right,
You figured it out or somebody elsefigured it out. It's okay, it
will live. I think everybody hasheard the word fuck in their life or
seeing the word fuck in their life, because I saw it in a bathroom
stall when I was a kid,and I don't remember where. I want
(45:59):
to say Kmart or something, andit was in the bathroom. Yeah,
oh, kmarts were notorious, phonenumbers on the stall, and my dad's
waiting for me outside the stall.I'm like, hey, Dad, what
does fuc k mean? So?Fuck? Look, they're old enough to
(46:20):
ask, they're old enough to knowthat. I mean, that's that's that's
the look. Now, I'm tryingto figure this out because Cooper didn't ask
me how babies you go? Didn'ttell me the other day. He's six.
I'm not going into that talk yet. I just said they magically appear,
Yeah, you were at some pointsmagical fairy dust. What he doesn't
know is the magical fairy dust issemen. Yeah, semen, yes,
(46:47):
and not really dusty but sticky.But anyways, the other story, the
other story that we're not going tospend a whole time on is obviously we
know that the Burmese python is aninvasive species in the Florida Everglades. It's
killing off populations of all kinds ofanimals, from raccoons and possums to whitetail
(47:13):
deer to it. It's a bigstruggle. Florida's trying to maintain it.
They're paying people to bring them inalive or kill them, bring them in
because they're not supposed to be there. It's obviously people have let them out
as pets. They've been able toflourish and thrive in the Florida Everglades.
It's hot enough for them to bethere, it's wet enough for him,
(47:34):
and there's plenty of prey for themto eat. They're thriving. But in
the news on June twenty third,this was from c NET, the largest
Burmese python ever captured in Florida happened. It is absolutely massive. This is
on the scale of this would beconsidered, in my opinion, if you
(47:58):
saw this, you would say thatis possibly some sort of anaconda. It's
huge. There's a huge snake.I want to give you a little bit
of Obviously she is dead. Theydid euthanize her. It was a female.
The female Burmese pythons get bigger thanthe males. I don't know if
you knew that. But it waseighteen feet long. It was two tip
(48:22):
the scales at two hundred and fifteenpounds. Yes, and compare that to
the absolute unit captured in twenty eighteentheighteen. That was the same length.
But that would only weighed one hundredand fifty pounds, So this one weighed
sixty five pounds more than the onein twenty eighteen that used to hold the
(48:44):
record. Is the biggest. Theywere the same length though, eighteen feet
which eighteen think that's a long fuckingsnake. Okay, And if you see
the pictures, I'll put the picturesup here on the TV show. That's
a huge snake. But I'm goingdo you have it up looking at it
neck? Yeah, pull it up. It's a massive, massive snake.
Man. Huge. I have neverseen a Burmese python that bit ever.
(49:10):
And obviously they're going to get biggerin the Florida because they more to eat.
That is yeah, yeah, imaginecoming across that Yeah, exactly exactly.
That Burmese python is big enough thatit should be able to eat a
(49:30):
small white tailed deer. That's that'sthe scary part, because that's big enough
to teach your child. So youknow, a five year old kid could
be eaten by that Burmese python.That's how big that Burmese python is.
And people out there are saying,don't kill them. I get that.
I understand that. That's fine anddandy. Yes, they would have been
(49:54):
cold to take this Burmese python andcaptured and put it in a zoo,
right because the world's I guess,fucking pers python. But at the end
of the day, that's not whatthis is about. What is about is
that these are an evasive species andthey're killing all wildlife that shouldn't be there.
These things are killing alligators, Okay, so yeah, it's time for
(50:20):
them to go. There's more thanjust this species that's invasive. There's others
out there that they're trying to getrid of as well. So there you
go. There you go. Thatwould that would have been the last story.
We kind of covered them a littlebit instead of going deep into them.
But there, there you go.People in Florida, if you're in
the Everglades in Australia meanwhile, whichI think they already knew. Oh,
(50:43):
Florida Everglades is Florida. The FloridaEverglades got crocodiles too, nick, I
mean they got both. It's reallyone of the only places in the world
where crocodiles and alligators and methads.So there you go. And meth heads.
I'm sure some meth heads go outthere and chill with the crocodiles at
night. Never come Back, NeverCome Back? All right, well,
