stay there. I finally have that big gold medal.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Your Jody and Bendor song of the Day by request.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I don't really mind when it's raining, but I like
to put jackets on the dogs so that they're not
soaking wet when I leave the house. Squiggy doesn't mind,
but Jerry has a real problem with putting his jacket on,
and he will run from me because he doesn't like
anything on his body. I don't know who had him
before me, but they did a number on him and
he doesn't like harnesses and he does not like jackets,
(02:25):
and so I finally I was like, fine, Jerry, then
you're going out in this weather and you're gonna get
soaking wet. And he looked like a drowned freakin' rat,
like it is. It was pouring and he's fluffy and white.
So when he gets soaking wet to the bone, he
just looks so pathetic.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Uh, Cooper, my dog. Because I've got the land and
everything else.
Speaker 2 (02:48):

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, It's like, do you want me to walk you
you don't want there either.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah, freaking nuts. I wouldn't walk them except I have to.
I need to do it because it's.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Fun the weather. Just keep in mind floodwater is everywhere,
standing water everywhere. There are school delays. That link is
up on our Facebook page at Jody and Bendor and
it's supposed to just be just miserable for the next
couple of days, So just keep that in mind.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yeah, there's three good links up on Jody and Bendor
facebook page. It's the school closure one. There's one where
you can put in your zip code and see how
things are near you. So if you're wondering if you
should go out, or if you're wondering if the roads
are bad, you put in your zip code and it
lets you know. And then the third one is just
general status.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Time Flies is coming up. Also, if you've already been
to our Radiothon page, give to the kids dot com
for the online auction that started a couple of days
ago and runs through Tuesday. When we do Radiothon Live
from Seattle Children's two brand new items have been added.
We will discuss next thirteen hours raising money for the
(04:01):
Uncompensated Care Fund at Seattle Children's which allows mom and
dad to make sure that their kid gets the best
care in the world while not having to worry about
the financial responsibilities. That's what the Uncompensated Care Fund is
for you, because even if you have the best insurance
in the world, sometimes it doesn't cover it, and it
doesn't cover.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
All of it.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
The copey, all of it, the deductible is ridiculous. So
the Uncompensated Care Fund is there to help mom and
dad through everything they're going through while their son or
daughter are going through everything they're going through. One of
the aspects of our auction of the Radiothon is our
online auction. We do it every year and this year
(04:42):
is no different. We've got some really cool stuff up there,
like going hiking with Jody, dinner at my house, on

Seattle Mariners, the Seahawks game next Thursday against the Rams
at home Luomenfield, and pregame sideline pass, Get to go

(05:44):
slow down and because this is so awesome. An eight
day Viking river cruise. You begin in Switzerland, you end
in Amsterdam, going through Germany, going through France. Airfare is
included the entire thing. The starting bid is six thousand dollars.
(06:08):
The trip is worth double that.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I've always wanted to go on one of these Viking cruises
because I'm not much of a cruiser because I tend
to get seasick. But these river cruises. I couldn't get
seasick on a river cruise because there's no you know,
motion of the ocean. It's just flat river and as
far as I know, a young children are not allowed
on these boats, so it's for fancy, awesome people who
(06:32):
want to have like a chill vibe, you know, no casino,
Like I don't think they have casinos on these boats.
So I think it's just like the entertainment, the beautiful
sights and sounds. You know, you open your door and
you've got like a balcony room and it's like you're
in a movie.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
If you go to give to the Kids dot Com
and click on the online auction, scroll down to the
eight day Viking River cruise plus airfare for two and
just scroll through the pictures.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Yeah, my god, Switzerland, Strasburg, France, Germany, scenic sailing on
the Middle Rhine through Germany, Cologne, the Netherlands, Amsterdam. Who
would want to do that?
Speaker 3 (07:17):
An eight day cruise. You fly into Switzerland and leave
from there, you fly out of Amsterdam to come home,
and in between there, like Jody said, Germany, France, Switzerland,
the Netherlands, it's all there. You do also get two
round trip Delta vouchers trip of for a lifetime. Yes,
(07:39):
I mean, Eliza, it's an eight day Viking cruise. It's
on the river.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So people who get seasick, this one's for you because
you're on the river, not on the ocean.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
So go to give to the Kids dot Com, click
on the online auction and just take a look at
everything that's there. Again, the auction's going to end just

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Power bike Carter subru Well, we know that one hundred
thousand residents of western Washington could face evacuation orders because
of all these rapidly rising floodwaters. Governor Ferguson declared a
state of emergency catastrophic flooding expected all over the place.
You can check the Jodian Vendor Facebook page. We've got
school information, We've got river information, We've got all of
(17:50):
the most recent information from the Department of Transportation, including
what's going on at eastbound Ie ninety, which was fully
blocked at North Bend due to a mudslide, and all
the other major paths. So just keep an eye on
the Facebook page if you were heading out today. Wild
Waves will close permanently next November. Future plans for the
site are in preliminary stages, with details yet to be announced.
(18:10):
I'm so intrigued on what they're gonna do with that campus.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Well, I want to say, like a decade ago, didn't
six Flags buy it, and then that whole partnership went away.
I don't know who owns it now.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yeah, but yeah, And I wonder what this means for
Enchantment Enchanted Village too.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Well, I would assume it's the same Wild Waves and
in Chanted Village you're.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Talking about in Channed Village. I liked in Channon Village.
I thought there were some good rides there. I mean,
half of them are broken all the time, the good ones,
you know, like you'd go there to ride the good ones,
the one that tipsy upside down. It's always broken, but
we had a good time there, Josh and I.

So if they do sell and they decide to keep
it open, you will not be doing endorsement spots for them.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Well, it doesn't matter anymore, That's what I said.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
If they buy it, he buys it and keeps it open.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
No, I thought it was great. Like that was the
first place that I let Josh and his buddies like
kind of have their freedom and independence to wander around
like away from me when he was maybe ten, and
that was very exciting for him.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
It was a couple of that was I did the
Loop roller coaster, I did a stunt for Radiothon where
I rode that thing all day long. And then I
did the timber Hawk where I wrote that thing all
day long.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
I'm so glad you don't feel like doing that anymore. Hey, Jody,
I have a dumb idea that you're not going to
want to do. Former University of Michigan head coach Sharon
Moore jailed last night, just hours after he was fired
from the job. The investigation has taken a very dark turn.
I'm not going to report it all here, but you
could google it yourself. The President officially launched his Gold
Card Visa, a new immigration pathway to allow foreigners to
(19:45):
pay a million dollars to expedite their visa application. Today,
December eleventh, the most popular day of the year to
break up with someone, based on data from Facebook, when
people change their relationship status back to single or it's complicated.
It kind of makes sense because you want to get
out before you have to buy someone nice gifts for
the holidays and deal with their family and then go
on to New Year's and spend time together, and then
(20:07):
you got Valentine's Day and you got to show up
for all these things. So if you don't like the person,
you got to back out. Now makes total sense. Netflix
announced that it will release a three part documentary series
on the disappearance of Natalie Holloway. The series will include
unreported parts of the case and unreleased audio from her
family and friends. Justin Bieber is now in the three
D printed sneaker business. HBO Max made a documentary called
(20:30):
Happy and You Know It about the popularity of annoying
kids music like The Wiggles and Baby Shark. You can
check out the trailer on the Jodi and Bendor Facebook page.
If you dare in sports Thursday Night Football on Amazon,
The Buccaneers.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Hosted if you Were on any of My Socials? Last
night at the Bender Nation, I posted a video my
daughter and I. We were having Daddy daughter night and
we had just finished dinner. We were about to finish dinner.
And when your kid says I'm done, I don't want anymore,
(21:05):
you go okay, And then they say can I have dessert?
The first thing you always say always, I don't care
who the parent is, you always say the same thing.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Well, if you don't have.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Enough room for dinner for dinner, how are you gonna
have enough room for dessert? I pose that question to
my daughter last night and she said the following.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
So you're too full to finish your dinner? Is that
spaghetio's on your shirt?
Speaker 3 (21:35):
So Mackenzie was just explaining how she's too full for
dinner but not too full for dessert.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
How does that work? Spaghettios are done here, Spaghetios are
where down in your belly. Okay, the cookie's gonna go
over here, Cookie's gonna go cook, He's gonna go where
And my daughter. That's brilliant. So you're too full to finish.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Your dinner, but you have room in your shoulder for
a cookie.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Should I give her a cookie?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
And then she says yes to the camera. What's the problem?
It makes perfect sense.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
And everybody's saying the same thing. I don't believe anybody
on either Facebook or Instagram at the Bender Nation did
they vote no?
Speaker 2 (22:23):
And people were voting on yourself?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Yeah, and then and a lot of people were going,
that means she gets two cookies because she has two shoulders. Yeah,
that's a great point. I have never heard a response
like that. Well, yeah, I'm I'm yes, I'm full. However,
my dessert's not going where the dinner went, It's goes
someplace else.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
I'm not a medical doctor, but I've watched enough Grades
Anatomy seasons one through eight to know that that is truth.
That's true. That's cookies going and shoulders.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Like you click the microphone and the message shows up
here in studio and we can play it. We use
the talk back for all kinds of stuff, including damn,
haven't heard that in a while. We wrapped the show
with that at nine forty five. You can call us
you can text us At five two three oh nine.
We did get a text that said I was with Jody.
Why would they make a movie about a Neil Diamond impersonator?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Hm?
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I thought that Hugh Jackman played Neil Diamond.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah. No.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
The name of the movie is Song Sung Blue. Yeah,
and Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson play She plays his wife,
and he's the impersonator.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah. They're a pair of impersonators. Apparently these guys are
kind of famous and had their own documentary and they
call themselves like Thunder and Lightening or something like that.
And I read it quickly and I'm already forgetting half
of it.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
That's weird because before we named it Jody and Bender,
we were going to be Thunder and Lightening.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
What is your morning need? What?
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Thunderliners?
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yeah, that's what it is. Actually, the she impersonate. They
play Mike and Claire Sardina, who performed as the Neil
Diamond tribute band Lightning and Thunder. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Okay, but who does she impersonate?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
She's Claire. I guess they both sing the song in
real life. I guess they both sing the songs. So
he's playing Neil Diamond and she's also playing Neil Diamond. Maybe,
I don't know. I never saw their documentary. I don't
know what their deal is.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
But apparently you have read the synopsis of the movie.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Song Some Blues, a twenty twenty five miracle American biographical
musical drama. It's based on the two thousand and eight
Titular documentary film by Titular documentary film by Greg Coe's
starring Bubba Bah bah Bah and everything else. That. Yeah,
it's based on them. They they apparently were famous in
(24:55):
Milwaukee as a Neil Diamond tribute.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Is when I said, does Hugh Jackman play Neil Diamond?
And you said, well, obviously, And I said, but I
think he plays an impersonator, to which you responded, why
would they make a movie about a Neil Diamond impersonator?
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Here there's more the true story of Mike and Clare Sardina,
a real life couple who formed a popular Neil Diamond
tribute band called Lightning and Thunder in Milwaukee. It's a
story about their dedication to Neil Diamond's music and their
own lives, inspired by the original documentary, focusing on their
journey and relationship. So it doesn't have to do anything
with Neil Diamond.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
No spanning the glue to find the news you didn't
know you needed to know.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
You know that Daily Bender Gazette. Now here's Bender hook again.
Car theft not cool, not cool, But this guy may
have found a loophole. Okay, a man in Florida, Ormond Beach, Florida.
(25:59):
Let's go seriously, how proud can you? How proud can
you be when very proud you do it every day? No,
I say Florida every day.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I didn't for like three weeks, and I didn't get
one right for three weeks.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Ormond Beach, Florida. Nice thirty six year old man was
arrested after crashing a stolen BMW. When police asked what
was going on, he claimed, and I quote, he was
teleported into the vehicle. Told police, you've saved me from
the aliens. That is a fresh new take on it.
(26:36):
So he doesn't even know how he got there. There's
no idea how he got in the car like Zotti
beamed him into that xer. That's right, he was teleported
into the stolen car.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Okay, I'm also pressed, which technically you could then could
could you prove that's not what happened. You could prove
it if they had like CCTV cameras because that he
saw him driving because what his and.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
I should like maybe make a phone call to the
court and say, yeah, can I talk to the public
defender because I may be able to help.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Yeah, I mean because about a shadow.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
But his out could be that's why I crashed the car,
right because I was suddenly transported into the vehicle I
come to and the car's driving, and I panicked and crashed.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I guess the only thing that wouldn't be working in
his favor again is if they had video of him
driving for any distance at all.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Told the cops you saved me from the aliens. He
was taken to the hospital be checked out. In the
video from the scene, he looked like he had suffered
some sort of head injury.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Sure.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
He was charged with grand theft, auto driving on a
license that was suspended. He's also got an extensive criminal record,
with convictions for grand theft, trespassing, obstruction, and laiter.

Your Jody and Bendor song of the Day by request.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I don't really mind when it's raining, but I like
to put jackets on the dogs so that they're not
soaking wet when I leave the house. Squiggy doesn't mind,
but Jerry has a real problem with putting his jacket on,
and he will run from me because he doesn't like
anything on his body. I don't know who had him
before me, but they did a number on him and
he doesn't like harnesses and he does not like jackets,
(02:25):
and so I finally I was like, fine, Jerry, then
you're going out in this weather and you're gonna get
soaking wet. And he looked like a drowned freakin' rat,
like it is. It was pouring and he's fluffy and white.
So when he gets soaking wet to the bone, he
just looks so pathetic.

Uh, Cooper, my dog. Because I've got the land and

Yeah, there's three good links up on Jody and Bendor
facebook page. It's the school closure one. There's one where
you can put in your zip code and see how
things are near you. So if you're wondering if you
should go out, or if you're wondering if the roads
are bad, you put in your zip code and it
lets you know. And then the third one is just

(06:08):
The trip is worth double that.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I've always wanted to go on one of these Viking cruises
because I'm not much of a cruiser because I tend
to get seasick. But these river cruises. I couldn't get
seasick on a river cruise because there's no you know,
motion of the ocean. It's just flat river and as
far as I know, a young children are not allowed
on these boats, so it's for fancy, awesome people who
(06:32):
want to have like a chill vibe, you know, no casino,
Like I don't think they have casinos on these boats.
So I think it's just like the entertainment, the beautiful
sights and sounds. You know, you open your door and
you've got like a balcony room and it's like you're
in a movie.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
If you go to give to the Kids dot Com

the Netherlands, it's all there. You do also get two

(18:10):
I'm so intrigued on what they're gonna do with that campus.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Well, I want to say, like a decade ago, didn't
six Flags buy it, and then that whole partnership went away.
I don't know who owns it now.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yeah, but yeah, And I wonder what this means for
Enchantment Enchanted Village too.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Well, I would assume it's the same Wild Waves and
in Chanted Village you're.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Talking about in Channed Village. I liked in Channon Village.
I thought there were some good rides there. I mean,
half of them are broken all the time, the good ones,
you know, like you'd go there to ride the good ones,
the one that tipsy upside down. It's always broken, but
we had a good time there, Josh and I.

So if they do sell and they decide to keep
it open, you will not be doing endorsement spots for them.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Well, it doesn't matter anymore, That's what I said.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
If they buy it, he buys it and keeps it open.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
No, I thought it was great. Like that was the
first place that I let Josh and his buddies like
kind of have their freedom and independence to wander around
like away from me when he was maybe ten, and
that was very exciting for him.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
It was a couple of that was I did the
Loop roller coaster, I did a stunt for Radiothon where
I rode that thing all day long. And then I
did the timber Hawk where I wrote that thing all
day long.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
I'm so glad you don't feel like doing that anymore. Hey, Jody,
I have a dumb idea that you're not going to
want to do. Former University of Michigan head coach Sharon
Moore jailed last night, just hours after he was fired
from the job. The investigation has taken a very dark turn.
I'm not going to report it all here, but you
could google it yourself. The President officially launched his Gold
Card Visa, a new immigration pathway to allow foreigners to
(19:45):
pay a million dollars to expedite their visa application. Today,
December eleventh, the most popular day of the year to
break up with someone, based on data from Facebook, when
people change their relationship status back to single or it's complicated.
It kind of makes sense because you want to get
out before you have to buy someone nice gifts for
the holidays and deal with their family and then go
on to New Year's and spend time together, and then
(20:07):
you got Valentine's Day and you got to show up
for all these things. So if you don't like the person,
you got to back out. Now makes total sense. Netflix
announced that it will release a three part documentary series
on the disappearance of Natalie Holloway. The series will include
unreported parts of the case and unreleased audio from her
family and friends. Justin Bieber is now in the three

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Hosted if you Were on any of My Socials? Last
night at the Bender Nation, I posted a video my
daughter and I. We were having Daddy daughter night and
we had just finished dinner. We were about to finish dinner.
And when your kid says I'm done, I don't want anymore,
(21:05):
you go okay, And then they say can I have dessert?
The first thing you always say always, I don't care
who the parent is, you always say the same thing.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Well, if you don't have.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Enough room for dinner for dinner, how are you gonna
have enough room for dessert? I pose that question to
my daughter last night and she said the following.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
So you're too full to finish your dinner? Is that
spaghetio's on your shirt?
Speaker 3 (21:35):
So Mackenzie was just explaining how she's too full for
dinner but not too full for dessert.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
How does that work? Spaghettios are done here, Spaghetios are
where down in your belly. Okay, the cookie's gonna go
over here, Cookie's gonna go cook, He's gonna go where
And my daughter. That's brilliant. So you're too full to finish.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Your dinner, but you have room in your shoulder for
a cookie.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Should I give her a cookie?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
And then she says yes to the camera. What's the problem?
It makes perfect sense.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
And everybody's saying the same thing. I don't believe anybody
on either Facebook or Instagram at the Bender Nation did
they vote no?
Speaker 2 (22:23):
And people were voting on yourself?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Yeah, and then and a lot of people were going,
that means she gets two cookies because she has two shoulders. Yeah,
that's a great point. I have never heard a response
like that. Well, yeah, I'm I'm yes, I'm full. However,
my dessert's not going where the dinner went, It's goes
someplace else.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
I'm not a medical doctor, but I've watched enough Grades
Anatomy seasons one through eight to know that that is truth.
That's true. That's cookies going and shoulders.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Like you click the microphone and the message shows up
here in studio and we can play it. We use
the talk back for all kinds of stuff, including damn,
haven't heard that in a while. We wrapped the show
with that at nine forty five. You can call us
you can text us At five two three oh nine.
We did get a text that said I was with Jody.
Why would they make a movie about a Neil Diamond impersonator?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Hm?
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I thought that Hugh Jackman played Neil Diamond.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah. No.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
The name of the movie is Song Sung Blue. Yeah,
and Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson play She plays his wife,
and he's the impersonator.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah. They're a pair of impersonators. Apparently these guys are
kind of famous and had their own documentary and they
call themselves like Thunder and Lightening or something like that.
And I read it quickly and I'm already forgetting half
of it.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
That's weird because before we named it Jody and Bender,
we were going to be Thunder and Lightening.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
What is your morning need? What?
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Thunderliners?
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yeah, that's what it is. Actually, the she impersonate. They
play Mike and Claire Sardina, who performed as the Neil
Diamond tribute band Lightning and Thunder. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Okay, but who does she impersonate?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
She's Claire. I guess they both sing the song in
real life. I guess they both sing the songs. So
he's playing Neil Diamond and she's also playing Neil Diamond. Maybe,
I don't know. I never saw their documentary. I don't
know what their deal is.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
But apparently you have read the synopsis of the movie.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Song Some Blues, a twenty twenty five miracle American biographical
musical drama. It's based on the two thousand and eight
Titular documentary film by Titular documentary film by Greg Coe's
starring Bubba Bah bah Bah and everything else. That. Yeah,
it's based on them. They they apparently were famous in
(24:55):
Milwaukee as a Neil Diamond tribute.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Is when I said, does Hugh Jackman play Neil Diamond?
And you said, well, obviously, And I said, but I
think he plays an impersonator, to which you responded, why
would they make a movie about a Neil Diamond impersonator?
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Here there's more the true story of Mike and Clare Sardina,
a real life couple who formed a popular Neil Diamond
tribute band called Lightning and Thunder in Milwaukee. It's a
story about their dedication to Neil Diamond's music and their
own lives, inspired by the original documentary, focusing on their
journey and relationship. So it doesn't have to do anything
with Neil Diamond.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
No spanning the glue to find the news you didn't
know you needed to know.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
You know that Daily Bender Gazette. Now here's Bender hook again.
Car theft not cool, not cool, But this guy may
have found a loophole. Okay, a man in Florida, Ormond Beach, Florida.
(25:59):
Let's go seriously, how proud can you? How proud can
you be when very proud you do it every day? No,
I say Florida every day.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I didn't for like three weeks, and I didn't get
one right for three weeks.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Ormond Beach, Florida. Nice thirty six year old man was
arrested after crashing a stolen BMW. When police asked what
was going on, he claimed, and I quote, he was
teleported into the vehicle. Told police, you've saved me from
the aliens. That is a fresh new take on it.
(26:36):
So he doesn't even know how he got there. There's
no idea how he got in the car like Zotti
beamed him into that xer. That's right, he was teleported
into the stolen car.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Okay, I'm also pressed, which technically you could then could
could you prove that's not what happened. You could prove
it if they had like CCTV cameras because that he
saw him driving because what his and.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
I should like maybe make a phone call to the
court and say, yeah, can I talk to the public
defender because I may be able to help.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Yeah, I mean because about a shadow.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
But his out could be that's why I crashed the car,
right because I was suddenly transported into the vehicle I
come to and the car's driving, and I panicked and crashed.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I guess the only thing that wouldn't be working in
his favor again is if they had video of him
driving for any distance at all.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Told the cops you saved me from the aliens. He
was taken to the hospital be checked out. In the
video from the scene, he looked like he had suffered
some sort of head injury.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Sure.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
He was charged with grand theft, auto driving on a
license that was suspended. He's also got an extensive criminal record,
with convictions for grand theft, trespassing, obstruction, and laiter.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Ah aliens made him lawyer. I
