Speaker 1 (00:00):
You should have gotten out of the way. It's one
more thing. I'm strungy, one more thing. So it's probably
I don't need to exaggerate. Once every two weeks I
come close enough to running over somebody on the way
to work that it's bothersome. It's because of the uh

(00:20):
unhomed population around the radio station that has a tendency
to just wander across the street in the dark and
all black, not at a crosswalk, funky junk as and
uh in my straight.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Now funky junk ass under your feet.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Or on your hood in my new comeding car of choice,
the Cyberbeast, which.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Had this ah about this funky junk as satin fires
cow funk he junk ass under my tires yowl yeah,
as inspired by the late greats Sylvester Stallone or I'm
sorry sly Stone. Different fella, completely different yeah, very different fellas.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Anyway back to you, I'm done song of Fiant.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Okay, So it would never be good to run over
a homeless person. I mean, even though the drug addict
wandering across the street in all black, in the dark,
not across walk, it would not be my fault. I
don't feel like and the defiant.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
I'm not even gonna look because you've got to stop
for me.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
I gotta believe it would be quite the headache to
deal with, especially in my new Cyberbeast. The big truck
with the stainless steel, completely flat front end like a
semi and at weighs seven pounds, I think it would
just pulverize somebody. But the reason I started thinking about
this was Governor DeSantis of Florida just stated, because they're

(01:54):
expecting protests in Florida this weekend, my clip, just my
picture just disappeared like it got erased. Let me go
into my deleted that's.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Bad because I keep coming up with nude versus of
my song. Hit it and we're probably better off now,
probably better off, not okay.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Ron DeSantis just said, if a mob surrounds your car
and threatens you and you hit them, that's their fault.
He announced that as the governor.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Oh yeah, well yeah, there was a notable episode of that.
Where was that that angry rioters surrounded a pickup truck
pulling like a horse trailer and the guy was afraid
for his life and he kept driving and he hurts
several people, well, several people were hurt in trying to
hurt him, but the laws said, no, he's perfectly justified.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Man. I've seen lots of people get surrounded before and
they they you know, because there they've got more humanity
than me or something or whatever. They they they don't,
but they're surrounded by these people, and I think f that,
especially if my kids in the car. No, I'll hire lawyer.
I'll deal with this later. I'm not sitting here waiting
to see how this turns out.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
No place google the name Reginald Denny right right, dragged
out of his truck and beaten to the point his
brain was never the same in the Rodney King riots
just for being a white guy.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, yeah, that is horrifying.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
I'm watching a video from yesterday in Chicago with the
anti Ice riots in this car gets stuck in the
middle of it and they drove right through, just gunned it.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Do it well, it won't have it won't have to
happen very often, very many places before the word gets
out that, oh, you can't just stand in front of
a car anymore. Okay, I guess I better not do that, because,
at least for quite a few years now, the message
has been sent to this crowd, and it's the same
freaking people often at all of these things, like the

(03:50):
literally the same people. But they've they've gotten the word that,
oh we can get in front of a car and
harassed people and they'll just sit there and put up
with it and be scared.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, they won't hit you, don't worry.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Alright, Well DeSantis announcing Yay, you do that and you
get run over, that's your fault. So I'm happy to
hear that there's only one member of this show it's
ever ever run over a human being, and it's cute
little blonde Katie Green, Katy Katy in the news Lady,
why did you run over this person? He didn't like
the looks of him or what was the story, Katie?

Speaker 4 (04:15):
Well, now, in my defense, I did not run over anyone.
I hit him and he rolled over the top of
my car. So let's just he didn't go under my
tires or anything.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Okay. So the so the inertia carried him up onto
your hood as opposed under your car, and you get
a credit for that. I don't understand.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
Yes, ten points no, so wow, Okay. To set the scene,
I'm in a prom dress. It was my senior ball night,
and I'm in San Francisco and I was driving.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
We want to explain how I ended up driving.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
But I'm driving my car and we're at a stoplight,
and I have two of my friends in the car,
and this totally out of his mind. Junkie throws himself
over the driver's side of my car and kind of
onto my windshield, so his arms are like across my
windshield and his body is up against my driver's side window.

(05:13):
And I said, f this, and I hit the gas
and he did a nice little spin and went up
and over the top of my car, and I took
off because I didn't want to even take a second
to figure out what he was trying to do.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
I would do the same thing even did anything come
of that? Did you call the police or did he
track you down and sue you or no? He didn't
even fall.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
He was Steve remain Standing said, I saw him, you know,
in the street, yelling at me with his arms up.
So I was like, all right, he's fine, I don't
need to call for help, gotcha, But I mean, it's scared.
And I didn't see him coming. He came from like
my blind spot, so it startled me, and I just
I gunned it. That was it.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
And you're what, you're a seventeen year old high school girl.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
Yeah, I was seventeen.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
Points for a stick in the landing junkie boy, right, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
Uh, counterfactual or whatever you call it, when if things
have gone differently, you look back and he's you know,
bent into a pretzel and there's blood all around him.
You keep driving, but you call nine one one problem. Absolutely. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
I was in that situation. And with the way that
I was raised, I'm like always hyper aware, and I
was in it address that was too tight around my
knees for me to be able to run anywhere, and
I was in heels, and I was just like, if
I got out of the car and something goes off,
I am in no shape to a defend myself or
b get away.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
So I just stayed in the car. I don't care
if I just stretched on him in my boxing gear.
I don't want to get out of my car and
like fend for my life because this lame o jumped
on my Oo.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
Yeah, if I had seen that I had hurt him,
the first thing I would have done was called nine
one one and give him the intersection and say this
is what happened, and here's my contact info if you
need hmm, okay, I.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Wonder are be a little worried about that in San Francisco,
where they would love to make you the you know,
white perpetrator of violence or something, you're the patriarchy a
girl or oh yeah, well this this is no way
shape or forms.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
A female face of white supremacy.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Exactly.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
I am. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Well, I mean that's in no way, shape or form
advice or anything.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
That's just what.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Advice. D would you still go to prom?

Speaker 1 (07:21):
It was prom night? I did still go to prom?
Or you were on a way too prom? I was
on my way too prom. I was switching on the
way home. No, wow, How long did it take you
to calm down?

Speaker 3 (07:32):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (07:33):
I everybody at prom knew about that by the time
it was I mean because I.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
Was like, ran over a dude.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Yeah, and so yeah, because that did that happened to
me several times.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Dude, you hit a homeless guy on your way here,
wait to mow down bums tells.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
Yeah yeah, wow, wow, that's crazy. So I'm sure in
a lot of jurisdictions, all you have to say is
I was afraid for my life, and that is clearly legitimate.
I wonder if you like, roll down your windshield a
couple inches. I'm picture and being surrounded in a riot
or something like that, and say I am going to

(08:08):
accelerate in three seconds, fair warning, three two one, and
then mulm down.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Take that Antifa.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Huh premeditating what?

Speaker 3 (08:22):
No?

Speaker 2 (08:22):
I don't think so I am afraid for my life.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
You should have asked them if they were hungry, and
offered to buy them some food.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Then I pop in my eight track tape of Funky
Junkie by slying the family stone, rank it up so
I can't hear the screams, and I hit that accelerator.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
I turn it up so I can't hear the screams,
and bumbump off.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
I go right, got places to be, well, I guess
that's it
