Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vorgie. This is the mayor of well Now, the
former mayor of my not North Dakota. Never been to
North Dakota. Any reason to go where?
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Canada?
Speaker 1 (00:15):
No, I've never been to Canada. I've been in Canadian waters.
I guess up off way off the coast of Maine.
We're looking for whales. Found him? You know what else
I found up there? No horrible seasickness. I blame the Canadians,
and I'm glad that the President put a tariff on
them yesterday. I've been mad ever since. Also, you know Wales.
(00:37):
I don't like Wales.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Who else I don't like?
Speaker 1 (00:40):
I don't like whales, not the country of Wales. I
don't like those big tubby mammals in the ocean.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Good because Princess Diana is from there.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
No, not that whales. I'm talking about those big tubby
mammals in the ocean. I don't like those.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Whales, especially on a kayak blue sperm they usually fall off.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Don't like any of them. Yes, I don't like those whales.
I got so sick. They're like, let's go look at
the whales, Like, how about they come to us? I'm
not I didn't realize I wasn't good on a whale
watching boat. Oh man, was I sick? And you know
all I could think of when I was sick that
day was those those videos of those like Japanese whale
(01:22):
hunters that are out there harpooning whales, and I was like,
good for them. I am rooting for those illegal whalers
so much right now. Every time one of those whales
beaches itself, I'm like, yes, you, I hate them.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Are just an awful person.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I was so sick this moment. I was so sick.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
But they kind of hate tequila that but I.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Kind of want to now. I want to go to
North Dakota. And the big reason is I don't think
there are any whales there. Screw those whales. The mayor
of min Not North Dakota, his name is Tom Ross.
Doesn't he do happy little trees? That's Bob Ross. Bob
(02:09):
Ross Mayor Tom Ross might Not North Dakota had to resign.
Here's what happened. He was talking to a city attorney.
Her name is Stephanie, and they were talking on the
(02:30):
phone after the suicide of a police officer in the
town of min Not. So they were discussing that situation.
I can't think of anything. I mean, I guess I could.
This is an incredibly sad conversation, one that doesn't exactly
(02:53):
lend itself to the mindset of what happened next. Are
you intrigued?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I am? Is this going to be a movie? I?
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Well maybe yes, okay in a way, right, yes, let's
have it. Because the timeline was he was talking with
his city attorney, Stephanie about the suicide of a police officer.
They get off that call, and minutes later Mayor Ross
(03:27):
I don't What I don't know is whether he recorded
this video in the moments between getting off the phone
with the city attorney and then sending the video, or
if the video was already created, maybe it had been
previously shot and filmed, and then he thought after this conversation,
(03:49):
oh yeah, I've got to send that video. The video
was a Lewde solo video that the mayor had apparently
self created. Again, well yeah, and again this is what
(04:11):
I don't know. Either way, he gets off the phone
with the city attorney after discussing the suicide of a cop,
and within a few minutes after that, his thoughts immediately
turned to oh yeah, time for me to do a
little work on myself, film it and send the video.
(04:36):
Or I almost forgot that video that i'd done of
my whittling job. I need to send that to my girlfriend,
is what he said he was meaning to do. His
girlfriend's name starts with the letter C. I don't know. Kathy, Cynthia, Carmen, Carmen, Carmel, Carmel, Carol, Krmalingo.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Kamalama ding Dong that's.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
The that's the pope's assistant. Anyway. His uh, his girlfriend's
name starts with the letter C. The city attorney's name
is Stephanie Cookie, probably Cookie, that's right. I mean it's
my not Yeah, he's he's so he goes to send
(05:28):
that to C is for Cookie.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Which you don't have a lot of industry.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
No c is for Cookie, Lucy. And I've said since
I was a kid, that's good enough for me.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
It is.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
He either records and then sends or it previously recorded
and then decided to send the video. It ended up
in Stephanie's phone. Huh what I thought? The girlfriend started
with CE. Her name is Stephanie with an S yes,
But in his phone she's in there as city attorney
(06:01):
and that starts with C. So he says, easy, mistake,
totally mess that up. Meant to send this to Cookie,
accidentally sent it to city attorney. This is a mistake
anyone can make. I mean, who among us after getting
off the phone talking about a local member of law
(06:24):
enforcement taking his own life hasn't been overcome with the
anything I want to say right here is just unnecessary.
Who hasn't been overcome with self prurian interests? And also thought,
you know who wants to see this? Anybody?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
I have a couple of questions. Okay, is this mayor married?
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
So his girlfriend is legitimate, whatever her name is her,
his girlfriend is legitimate.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Yes, and.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
He if he would have okay, so if this was
all just a true mistake, what he should have said was,
I know I sent it to the wrong person because
that was the last person I talked to when I
sent this text. Yes, then I would look at the
situation and say, you know what, I get it, but
YE don't want you as a mayor anymore, right, because
you're just gross?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Right He's he immediately recognized like, oh whoops, that's what
he says, just like it, And he said, I am
so sorry. I didn't mean to send you that video.
I am so sorry. Please delete the video, don't watch it,
and let's just you know, move on and as coworkers,
(07:43):
and don't even worry about any of this, He says.
You see, I'd always had a Samsung phone and I
recently got an iPhone and I didn't know how to
work the iPhone.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
This is the problem.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Typically use a Samsung, which would be a great commercial
for Samsung.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Right, but this is what's the problem technology today, and
it's new to.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
This is technology's problem.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
No, what he did, that's that's on him. Whatever if
he wants to do that.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
It literally was on him, and he filmed it and
he sent it to his city attorney. She of course
watched it.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Well see, and that's her fault.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Reached out to HR within the city and said, I
don't feel comfortable working with Mayor Tom anymore here in
our community. And he tried to say like it was
a mistake. I didn't mean to and ultimately he ended
up resigning. Into all this that happened in January.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
That's an amazing, crazy political career that he just walked
away from.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
He oh no, what the mayor of my not North Dakota.
It's one of the bigger towns in North Dakota, which is.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah, look, I'm kidding. It's a great state. I've drove
through it once. Really Yeah, because Canada.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
I'm not opposed to going to North Dakota. I just
I've never been invited.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I wasted, so I don't.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Go to any state unless I'm invited.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I severely limits your travels.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I drove between here and North Carolina and completely bypassed Tennessee.
I wasn't invited. So he here's the thing, here's one
of the things guys don't do that. I mean you
(09:48):
can do it, just don't don't film it. Yeah, some
guys like that would have been helpful to know a
couple of minutes ago, Like, all right, what I know.
People people like this show. They really like it show.
So don't do that. Film it and send it to anyone.
As I'm gonna take a quick pull here. Anyone want
(10:08):
to no one, No one wants to see that. There's
not one person, no one, No one wants to see it.
There's no way that you can film it. And like, yeah,
but they haven't seen it from this angle. They don't
want to no one wants it. No one wants that video.
Don't do it. I know it sounds like a good
idea at the time, it isn't. You're you're gonna send
(10:32):
it to someone you meant to send it to they
don't want it. Or you're gonna accidentally send it to
someone who doesn't want to see it and they really
really don't want it, and you could end up not
being mayor anymore. So don't do that. Part of me wonders, though,
if maybe he didn't mean to send it to the
(10:56):
city attorney and then try and pass it off as
an accident. Why why do flashers do what they do?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Sure a possibility As someone who.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Is a serial flasher, I'll tell you it's because, deep
in the recesses of our mind, we think, you know,
you know what she wants. She wants to see this,
and that's what and and and it's like we're gifting
it to you. This is something that you need, this
is something that you want, and you're too shy to
ask for it. So I'm just gonna go ahead and
(11:25):
just give it to you. And that's when we open
the jacket and go hey, and and that's then it's
that mindset that may have led him to say, all right,
you know, I know we just got out the phone
well discussing the horrible, untimely passing of a city employee,
and what she really wants to cheer up. What will
(11:46):
help help her cheer up after this conversation is this video.
You're welcome, Stephanie. I can't help but wonder if maybe
there was some of that going on.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Well, he sounds like he resigned pretty quickly.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
So he's been mayor since January. This happened in January.
Everyone in the town of mine.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Not everyone just got elected.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
No, I don't know when he got elected.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
You said he's been mayor since January.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Yeah, yes, he is. He has continued to be the
mayor since January, which means that he's been working with
the city attorney.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Who how do you three months?
Speaker 1 (12:25):
What do you? First of all?
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Quick?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Everyone in town he's over the last few months, he's
been going to ribbon cuttings. He's been meeting, he's been
meeting with business leaders. Ew here's the here's the girl
that sold the most girl Scott cookies. He's been out
he's been out there shaking hands and people and people
know it's it's a small town. I don't care if
it's the one of the biggest cities in North Dakota.
(12:49):
It's a small town. It's roughly the size of Colon, Nebraska, right,
So he's I don't know, I don't know how big
it is, but I bet everyone knows. Everyone knows, from
the people in the city attorney's office, to all the cops,
to the HR department, to his girlfriend. What does she
think about? I'd like to talk to her to like.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
This cookie think.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
About, to the piemaker, to everyone the person that comes
out there and does like who's the meter maide is?
If that's not a term that we don't use anymore.
Everyone knows and they've seen him throughout town. Hi, mister Mayor,
Look who cares what you do? Every single person like
(13:30):

drive by and go, hey, Mayor, how about I lend
you a hand? You know, everyone text.
