Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi am Jamie and I'm Caitlin and we are hosts

Erin Brockovich and we also just did The Fifth Element.

(00:22):

and have your favorite movies ruined. Listen and subscribe to
the Bechtel Cast on the I Heart Radio app or
wherever you get your podcasts. For Donkey of the Day,
I'm a Democrat, so being Drunky of the day a
little bit of a mixed so like a dolt other day. Now,

(00:49):
I've been called a lot of my twenty three years,
but Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Yes
don't you? Today? For Friday, March Knife, the anniversary of
the notorious B I. G. S death, go to twenty
seven year old Rant Shannon of the Great State of Florida.
Drop on the clues wrom from Florida Man and I
always remember the key word is Florida. All right, long
before Donald Glover and the writers on Atlanta introduced y'all

(01:11):
the Florida man, your uncle Charlotte for years has been
getting on this radio telling you that all the craziest
people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
And Rant Shannon is just more evidence that is proving
my point. She Ranch Shannon was driving through an accident
in Gainesville, Florida. And you know how it is when
you're driving to a traffic accident. Everything slows down, and
it's nothing worse than having that happened while you're on

(01:33):
your way to work. Like for me, I wake up
in the morning every day at four I'm out to
crib By five. And that always makes me feel good
because I know if I'm aout to crip By five,
I'll be at the station by like five forty five.
But nothing worse when you're cruising and you know you're
about to be more than on time and then boom,
traffic flows to a crawl because of an accident. But
here's the thing, all right, here's the thing. Nothing pisses

(01:54):
me off more than people who start blowing the horn
and getting agitated when there's absolutely nothing think any of
us can do about said traffic accident. Okay, in those moments,
you just have to remember your serenity prayer. God grant
me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage and change of things I can. And it widom
to know the difference. When you are caught in traffic
because of a traffic accident, you have to be wise

(02:16):
enough to know that there's nothing you can do except
for let emergency responders do their job. You can blow
the horn all damn day, you can scream, you can curse,
but it's not gonna change anything until emergency responders get
done doing what they're doing with young twenty seven year
old Ranch Shannon. Okay, he didn't get that memo. And
if it's anybody who should who should have been patient

(02:38):
and been a model citizen in in in that moment
due to his circumstances, it was Ranch Shannon. But Ranch
couldn't show discipline in that moment of being in a
traffic accident because he's clearly not the highest grade of
weed in the in the dispensary. But it's not his
fault because he's from Florida. Would you like for me
to reveal why Floridian Ranch Shannon is getting donkey today.

(02:59):
Let's go w c j B ABC report. Police police
arrested a man who honked repeatedly at first responder was
working on a traffic accident. Police approached twenty seven year
old Ranch And and it smelled marijuana coming from his car.
They said they found a loaded gun on him and
multiple and a multitude of drugs, including five mason jars
and marijuana and nearly one hundred grams of cocaine. They

(03:20):
also found ten thousand dollars in cash and his waistban.
There were other guns in the car to include an
A K forty seven and an A R fifteen. All
of that in the car, So why he decided to
alert me police's attention to him by honking his horn
is still beyond me. That news report isn't even telling
the whole story. Ranch And a convicted felon riding dirty,
riding filthy. He had a loaded nine millimeter handgun, over

(03:42):
ten grand and cash, a four inch knife for a
R fifteen, five mason jars full of weed and hash,
ninety four grams of cocaine, eleven grams of amphetamine, power
sixteens and oxycodeine pills. And he had another book bag
full of weed and edibles. And in the truck he
had four more handguns, a K four ammunition, boat, cutters,
and gloves. Rant Shannon, who in the name of grand

(04:04):
theft auto was you going to kill? It was going
It sounds like you were providing all the drugs and Gamesville.
But the fact you were acting like you was doing
something normal like delivering pizza is so Florida trap. Want
to close bombs with Florida again. I hate, I hate
to be the back in my day guy. Well, back
in my day, when you was riding dirty, trafficking drugs

(04:26):
and guns, you was cautious as possible. You made sure
your tags was great, you made sure your license and
registration was great. You didn't drive a car that would
bring attention to you. That was the whole point. When
you were riding dirty, You wanted to bring as little
attention to yourself as possible. But this ranch, Shannon and
patient asked floready and keyword Floriaddian was riding filthy and

(04:47):
decided to start blaring his horn while emergency responders worked
at a traffic accident. Can we go to w c
j B ABC twenty for the report once more please
just played. Police arrested the man who haunt repeatedly at
first responders working on a traffic accident. Police approach twenty
seven year old ranch And and it smelled marijuana coming
from his car and said they found a loaded gun
on him and multiple and a multitude of drugs, including

(05:10):
five Mason jars and marijuana and nearly one grams of cocaine.
They also found ten thousand dollars of cash and his waistban.
There were other guns in the car to include an
A K forty seven and an A R fifteen. All
that in the car. So why he decided to alert
me police's attention to him by hanking his horn is
still beyond me. Why he decided to bring attention to

(05:30):
himself when he was riding so dirty is beyond me too.
But the answer to that question is simply because he's
from Florida. And what do I always tell you, the
craziest people come from the Bronx and all of Florida,
and all you Floridians who always say to me, Charlemagne,
all people from Florida are crazy. Well, I'm gonna give

(05:50):
you the cherry on top of it, don't There's more.
There's one more little piece that needs to be at it.
According to the New York Post, Ranch Shannon, after being
arrested it told authorities verbatim that he was a nice
guy because he could have used the weapons against him.
Who I repeat, Ranch Shannon after being arrested all this stuff.

(06:14):
Whold authorities verbatim that he was a nice guy because
he could have used the weapons he got caught with
against him. Florida, ladies, and Gettlement, Florida. Please let Remy
Mark get Floridian. Ranch Shannon the biggest he hall he ha,
he ha. He's stupid, mother, are you dumb? He's very dumb.
