Speaker 2 (05:16):
So it obviously caught traction is now national news story.
But apparently there's you know, a story and several stories
about how billionaires are building mansions on top of the skyscrapers.
The one we looked at yesterday had a version of
the White House in India, right, I think, yeah, well,
(05:36):
couldn't find out that version of the White House is
a little scale down.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
But it was on top of a I want to
say thirty story.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Thirty three story building.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Yeah, and it was.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
It was so weird because it took up the entire roof, right.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
It had a little.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Tiny lawn, little lawn like a Highland's rand.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Style, like somebody would have had gone out there with
a lawnmower on a roa. Yeah, thirty three stories.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Though, to be honest, it looks like something that AI generated.
You know. It looks fake. Yeah, Like when you see it,
you're gonna be like, this is not real, but it is.
There's a rich guy who built it. He started constructing
more than a decade ago. It cost over twenty million dollars.
The reporter called an extreme example of a trend that's
been picking up steam the world's wealthy. At people are
(06:19):
bored with their normal pinhouses. They want something more impressive,
So they're going for skyscraper houses. Wow, like homes on
top of skyscrapers. It's just a little glutton, isn't it.
It's like, I want to make the roof my my penthouse.
(06:39):
What do you do with like the building's ac and stuff?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Oh, I don't know. Yeah, because there is a lot
of important stuff that they put on roofs. I mean yeah,
especially something that's thirty three stories tall.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Well, this guy, he's never gonna see his house. This
dumbass who built this white house replica? He's He fled
Indian in twenty sixteen after he was accused of fraud
and money laundering. His name is Vie Malia and if
he ever goes back to India's gonna be thrown in jail.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
He's a former chairman of United Spirits, one of the
largest liquor companies in the world. Really, yeah, he's like,
I'm gonna build that mansion on top of the skyscraper
and I'm never gonna be able to go there, dumb ass.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That same story had an article about a guy who
he was attempting to do the same thing, and then
the skyscrape that he was building on m hm, it
didn't have the support to hold it, so they ended
up having to scrap his whole rooftop building.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Dumb ass. Because yeah, Frontier Airlines passenger demanded that the
aircraft returned to the gate San Diego International Airport while
shouting that she was the President of the United States
and a sovereign ruler in the government. The unnamed female
passenger was captured on TikTok video while on board a
(07:56):
flight from San Diego to Las Vegas that appeared to
be still on the ground at the airport, and she
was raising her voice at a flight attendant as well
as other passengers. The woman was standing up in the
section of her seat, appearing distressed, was shouting over at
a flight attendant in the aisle and said this is now.
(08:18):
You gotta understand. The woman was wanting to go back
to the gate because she left her phone charging at
the gate. Oh, so that's why she was like, I
will take us back I'm the president of the United States.
So anyway, she says to the flight attendant. She says, quote,
(08:39):
if I was white and in a suit, you would
have stopped the heaving plane. Uh No, he wouldn't. Probably,
she said, lad, Now I'm the president of the whole
got blank country. Yes, I need to go off this plane,
and I'm gonna tell you straight up. This is her quote, continuing, Yes,
(09:00):
I need he got this plane, and I'm gonna tell
you straight up. Don't you ever come against nobody because
of the skin color?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Again?
Speaker 2 (09:09):
I can't thinking it was. It's so crazy. Everybody plays
a race card on everything nowadays. It's just automatically the
go to right to get your way. All it's because
you're racist. It's so ridiculous. A flight attendant started to
explain something to passenger. It wasn't clearly picked up on
(09:30):
the video the audio in the video. Anyway, anyway, the
woman replied to a flight attendant, h that's a lie.
You're from the pit of hell. She has the flight
attendant's name before the clearing the rest of the cabin
that she was quote an affirmed sovereign ruler of this
year government seven continents. I own she that's what she's claiming.
(09:51):
Seven continents, so all of them. Yep, she owns the world,
the woman added, before fellow passengers on the two and
a half hour flight started to laugh at the woman.
Of course that didn't go over well either.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Well, when we watched the video, we weren't holding a
straight face.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
No, nothing in person even worse. Yeah, it's pretty funny. Anyway,
she got a wish they did go back.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
They should allow more hackling on airplanes.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
You know what it is funny? I love the excuses.
I'm the president, I know own seven continents. Damn, why
are you flying? Coach? A woman in the UK named Karen? Okay,
what did Karen do? She was recently laid off by
her employer. So it looks like a parent company of
(10:43):
British Airways. Iag ever heard of that company? No anyway.
Then later off she fought acclaim against them, are you
and that they breached in a quality law. She was
mad because she didn't get a farewell card.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Like when they fired her, they didn't give her a
card saying no thanks for working here.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yes her farewell card. Now this word gets interesting less
is this so an employment council looked into it and
discovered the company actually had a card for Karen, but
only two people were willing to sign it. Oh, this
woman does not She is not well received in the office.
(11:26):
She really is a Karen. Only two people said they'd
sign it anyway. The other one's brand new, right, the
one's replacing her, so they opted not to give her
the farewell card. You can see that fair enough. You
open it up and one's got two signatures.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh my god, it's like a birthday card. We passed
this around the office and this is all we got
for signatures for your birthday.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
And I'm probably wondering her farewell cards that big of
a deal. Well, no they're not. It's just Karen's really
a Karen. In addition to the farewell card claim, she
sued the company, bringing forty complaints against them for things
like sexual harassment, victimization, unfair dismissal. It sounds like she
had several issues with other coworkers, and no wonder only
(12:11):
two of us sign it, including igniting an argument with
one because they corrected her spelling of whiz, and another
card for a colleague. So, in any event, here's what happened.
The judge well, the judge tossed her case out. Okay,
toss her case out. Is the termined that she was
appropriately laid off. Two other workers who also got let
(12:34):
go at the same time in that position had had
become that their position had become redundant in the company restructure.
The judge also ruled that the Etcited in her claim
either did not happen, or if they did, were innocuous
interactions in the normal course of employment. And she didn't
(12:55):
have any crowns to stand on. Karen, just being a aaron,
all right, how many duys? Too many? One? Two?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I figure one of them you could probably mark up
as a mistake too, maybe a second, I think three
or more.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
It's really yeah, cutting line of three. So you'd say
sixteen was a problem a pattern? Oh yeah, yeah, maybe
a drinking issue. Maybe needs to check himself in anyway.
A man who has sixteen dui convictions now in jail
after a judge dropped his bond. Oh, he's out of jail.
My bout out of jail after the judge dropped his bond.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Superior Court judge on Tuesday lower Todd Baker's bond from
a million dollars to two hundred thousand because W say
in August they were sent to a man's home and
brook you place. They discovered the six year old Baker
had driven into the fence on his own property while
being repaired. He throve in his own fence. Citizens have
(13:58):
complain numerous times about Baker about reckless driving another activity
because he's always drunk. Deputy to say that with the
help of the police, they discovered the man had driven
through the city and into the county while almost causing
numerous crashes.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
So he's not a good drunk driver.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
He's no. I don't think he's good at driving period
or drinking. He was a really charge of felony habitual
driving while impaired and driving while license revoked. But W
say that when they went to arrest him they found
multiple guns. Baker was in charge of felony possession of
firearm by a filing as well. State records show the
Baker has had sixteen DUI convictions since nineteen eighty eight.
(14:44):
He may have a problem. Sixteen bro since nineteen eighty eight.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Damn, Oh, what.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Is that thirty six years or so?
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah? One every other year?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah, so I mean one every other year. Hey, look,
at least he's consistent. A couple of Louisiana got arrested
after the vehicle was repossessed, and there was a ton
of drugs and a couple of guns inside detectives not
more with nine pounds of marijuana. That's a lot of weed,
(15:17):
eighteen grams and mushrooms, a bunch of ecstasy pills. There
are a bunch of matteris for street and drug distribution,
and you got a magic hand gun. A couple was
arrested when they showed up at the storage yard to
retrieve their personal belonging. Who don't do that, you morons.
You a bunch of dumb asses. So not only did
(15:37):
they blow their car payment money as a massive drug supply,
but they also failed to make enough money drug dealing
to make those payments, so they're stored. They stored their
inventory of drugs in their car and then their car
got repossessed. Oh y'all, paarable both. That's just awful, all right.
(15:59):
Last story of the loot. James Howes. You might know
that name, thirty nine year old James House. He's well
known in the world crypto. He's the IT engineer in
Wales who almost got rich out bitcoin twenty thirteen, he
had a hard drive with eight thousand bitcoins on it.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Ooh, that's a good chunk of cash right there.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
How much you think that's worth nowadays?
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Oh? I want to say, we're looking at like sixty
thousand dollars per bitcoin.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
So half a billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Half a billion, yeah, half.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
A billion dollars. He mind him in two thousand and
nine when they were worthless, forgot about it. He only
remembered the crypto blew up a few months after. He
tossed the computer drive out while cleaning, so it's in
a landfill.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Never throw out a computer, dude, right, who does that?
I've got probably every computer since two thousand that I've
owned just taken up space.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
So eight thousand bitcoins worth over half a billion dollars.
The drives have been buried under a mountain of trash
for over a decade. He's in the news now because
he's suing the city council for a hell of a
lot of money, because he's been begging, begging them to
let him search for the drive, but they won't let him.
He's suing for the full amount of what the bitcoin's worth.
(17:21):
Six hundred and forty seven million dollars.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Wooh damn for a hypothetical drive that's out there.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
He claims he's a simple a team that can excavate
the site and found the Wow. He said he's got
a team that can excavate the site and find the
bag those hard drivers in. He knows what should be
and things that it cost about thirteen million dollars to
do it. He's apparently secured the funding.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
So he has the money.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
He's offered the town ten percent of the bitcoins once
he finds him, or around fifty million dollars. But they
won't budge. They say that digging up that much trash
will because an environmental disaster surrounding that area, and it
would take three years of digging plus another year to
bury it all back. Oh so they're talking smell right,
(18:14):
animals like everything involved with it, eye pollution. Anyway, he's
gonna have his day in court in December. They're gonna
decide whether the rule for him or against him.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Wow, damn. I think I wouldn't know what his timeframe is.
The city says it's gonna take three years. That's that's his,
that's his. He says it's gonna take three years. Yeah, yeah,
I'd give him a month. It'd be like, you narrow
it down to where you think it is, we'll give
you a month to dig. After that month, who times up?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Oh see, he's got to take down the whole mountain.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Right, he says, he knows roughly where it is. Three
years of digging.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Man, what a paying the ass for six hundred and
forty seven million dollars. Man, that's a lot of money.
And there you go.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
That's assuming the computer's still in shape that you can
get them off of there. Oh true, true, At this
point it could be. He says. It's in a bag,
but I.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Mean bad, could get torn, ran over so many times.
It's in a billion pieces. Yeah, this toff got wet worms.
Salda say goodbye that money. All right, there you go,

largest liquor companies in the world. Really, yeah, he's like,
I'm gonna build that mansion on top of the skyscraper
and I'm never gonna be able to go there, dumb ass.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That same story had an article about a guy who
he was attempting to do the same thing, and then
the skyscrape that he was building on m hm, it
didn't have the support to hold it, so they ended
up having to scrap his whole rooftop building.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Dumb ass. Because yeah, Frontier Airlines passenger demanded that the
aircraft returned to the gate San Diego International Airport while
shouting that she was the President of the United States
and a sovereign ruler in the government. The unnamed female
passenger was captured on TikTok video while on board a
(07:56):
flight from San Diego to Las Vegas that appeared to
be still on the ground at the airport, and she
was raising her voice at a flight attendant as well
as other passengers. The woman was standing up in the
section of her seat, appearing distressed, was shouting over at
a flight attendant in the aisle and said this is now.
(08:18):
You gotta understand. The woman was wanting to go back
to the gate because she left her phone charging at
the gate. Oh, so that's why she was like, I
will take us back I'm the president of the United States.
So anyway, she says to the flight attendant. She says, quote,
(08:39):
if I was white and in a suit, you would
have stopped the heaving plane. Uh No, he wouldn't. Probably,
she said, lad, Now I'm the president of the whole
got blank country. Yes, I need to go off this plane,
and I'm gonna tell you straight up. This is her quote, continuing, Yes,
(09:00):
I need he got this plane, and I'm gonna tell
you straight up. Don't you ever come against nobody because
of the skin color?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Again?
Speaker 2 (09:09):
I can't thinking it was. It's so crazy. Everybody plays
a race card on everything nowadays. It's just automatically the
go to right to get your way. All it's because
you're racist. It's so ridiculous. A flight attendant started to
explain something to passenger. It wasn't clearly picked up on
(09:30):
the video the audio in the video. Anyway, anyway, the
woman replied to a flight attendant, h that's a lie.
You're from the pit of hell. She has the flight
attendant's name before the clearing the rest of the cabin
that she was quote an affirmed sovereign ruler of this
year government seven continents. I own she that's what she's claiming.
(09:51):
Seven continents, so all of them. Yep, she owns the world,
the woman added, before fellow passengers on the two and
a half hour flight started to laugh at the woman.
Of course that didn't go over well either.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Well, when we watched the video, we weren't holding a
straight face.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
No, nothing in person even worse. Yeah, it's pretty funny. Anyway,
she got a wish they did go back.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
They should allow more hackling on airplanes.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
You know what it is funny? I love the excuses.
I'm the president, I know own seven continents. Damn, why
are you flying? Coach? A woman in the UK named Karen? Okay,
what did Karen do? She was recently laid off by
her employer. So it looks like a parent company of
(10:43):
British Airways. Iag ever heard of that company? No anyway.
Then later off she fought acclaim against them, are you
and that they breached in a quality law. She was
mad because she didn't get a farewell card.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Like when they fired her, they didn't give her a
card saying no thanks for working here.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yes her farewell card. Now this word gets interesting less
is this so an employment council looked into it and
discovered the company actually had a card for Karen, but
only two people were willing to sign it. Oh, this
woman does not She is not well received in the office.
(11:26):
She really is a Karen. Only two people said they'd
sign it anyway. The other one's brand new, right, the
one's replacing her, so they opted not to give her
the farewell card. You can see that fair enough. You
open it up and one's got two signatures.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh my god, it's like a birthday card. We passed
this around the office and this is all we got
for signatures for your birthday.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
And I'm probably wondering her farewell cards that big of
a deal. Well, no they're not. It's just Karen's really
a Karen. In addition to the farewell card claim, she
sued the company, bringing forty complaints against them for things
like sexual harassment, victimization, unfair dismissal. It sounds like she
had several issues with other coworkers, and no wonder only
(12:11):
two of us sign it, including igniting an argument with
one because they corrected her spelling of whiz, and another
card for a colleague. So, in any event, here's what happened.
The judge well, the judge tossed her case out. Okay,
toss her case out. Is the termined that she was
appropriately laid off. Two other workers who also got let
(12:34):
go at the same time in that position had had
become that their position had become redundant in the company restructure.
The judge also ruled that the Etcited in her claim
either did not happen, or if they did, were innocuous
interactions in the normal course of employment. And she didn't
(12:55):
have any crowns to stand on. Karen, just being a aaron,
all right, how many duys? Too many? One? Two?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I figure one of them you could probably mark up
as a mistake too, maybe a second, I think three
or more.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
It's really yeah, cutting line of three. So you'd say
sixteen was a problem a pattern? Oh yeah, yeah, maybe
a drinking issue. Maybe needs to check himself in anyway.
A man who has sixteen dui convictions now in jail
after a judge dropped his bond. Oh, he's out of jail.
My bout out of jail after the judge dropped his bond.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Superior Court judge on Tuesday lower Todd Baker's bond from
a million dollars to two hundred thousand because W say
in August they were sent to a man's home and
brook you place. They discovered the six year old Baker
had driven into the fence on his own property while
being repaired. He throve in his own fence. Citizens have
(13:58):
complain numerous times about Baker about reckless driving another activity
because he's always drunk. Deputy to say that with the
help of the police, they discovered the man had driven
through the city and into the county while almost causing
numerous crashes.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
So he's not a good drunk driver.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
He's no. I don't think he's good at driving period
or drinking. He was a really charge of felony habitual
driving while impaired and driving while license revoked. But W
say that when they went to arrest him they found
multiple guns. Baker was in charge of felony possession of
firearm by a filing as well. State records show the
Baker has had sixteen DUI convictions since nineteen eighty eight.
(14:44):
He may have a problem. Sixteen bro since nineteen eighty eight.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Damn, Oh, what.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Is that thirty six years or so?
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah? One every other year?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah, so I mean one every other year. Hey, look,
at least he's consistent. A couple of Louisiana got arrested
after the vehicle was repossessed, and there was a ton
of drugs and a couple of guns inside detectives not
more with nine pounds of marijuana. That's a lot of weed,
(15:17):
eighteen grams and mushrooms, a bunch of ecstasy pills. There
are a bunch of matteris for street and drug distribution,
and you got a magic hand gun. A couple was
arrested when they showed up at the storage yard to
retrieve their personal belonging. Who don't do that, you morons.
You a bunch of dumb asses. So not only did
(15:37):
they blow their car payment money as a massive drug supply,
but they also failed to make enough money drug dealing
to make those payments, so they're stored. They stored their
inventory of drugs in their car and then their car
got repossessed. Oh y'all, paarable both. That's just awful, all right.
(15:59):
Last story of the loot. James Howes. You might know
that name, thirty nine year old James House. He's well
known in the world crypto. He's the IT engineer in
Wales who almost got rich out bitcoin twenty thirteen, he
had a hard drive with eight thousand bitcoins on it.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Ooh, that's a good chunk of cash right there.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
How much you think that's worth nowadays?
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Oh? I want to say, we're looking at like sixty
thousand dollars per bitcoin.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
So half a billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Half a billion, yeah, half.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
A billion dollars. He mind him in two thousand and
nine when they were worthless, forgot about it. He only
remembered the crypto blew up a few months after. He
tossed the computer drive out while cleaning, so it's in
a landfill.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Never throw out a computer, dude, right, who does that?
I've got probably every computer since two thousand that I've
owned just taken up space.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
So eight thousand bitcoins worth over half a billion dollars.
The drives have been buried under a mountain of trash
for over a decade. He's in the news now because
he's suing the city council for a hell of a
lot of money, because he's been begging, begging them to
let him search for the drive, but they won't let him.
He's suing for the full amount of what the bitcoin's worth.
(17:21):
Six hundred and forty seven million dollars.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Wooh damn for a hypothetical drive that's out there.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
He claims he's a simple a team that can excavate
the site and found the Wow. He said he's got
a team that can excavate the site and find the
bag those hard drivers in. He knows what should be
and things that it cost about thirteen million dollars to
do it. He's apparently secured the funding.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
So he has the money.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
He's offered the town ten percent of the bitcoins once
he finds him, or around fifty million dollars. But they
won't budge. They say that digging up that much trash
will because an environmental disaster surrounding that area, and it
would take three years of digging plus another year to
bury it all back. Oh so they're talking smell right,
(18:14):
animals like everything involved with it, eye pollution. Anyway, he's
gonna have his day in court in December. They're gonna
decide whether the rule for him or against him.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Wow, damn. I think I wouldn't know what his timeframe is.
The city says it's gonna take three years. That's that's his,
that's his. He says it's gonna take three years. Yeah, yeah,
I'd give him a month. It'd be like, you narrow
it down to where you think it is, we'll give
you a month to dig. After that month, who times up?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Oh see, he's got to take down the whole mountain.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Right, he says, he knows roughly where it is. Three
years of digging.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Man, what a paying the ass for six hundred and
forty seven million dollars. Man, that's a lot of money.
And there you go.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
That's assuming the computer's still in shape that you can
get them off of there. Oh true, true, At this
point it could be. He says. It's in a bag,
but I.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Mean bad, could get torn, ran over so many times.
It's in a billion pieces. Yeah, this toff got wet worms.
Salda say goodbye that money. All right, there you go,
super store,
