If you're listening to the Jack and Nikki Show podcast
everywhere you get your podcasts and at WBQ dot com.
Joined Jack and Nicky Live weekday mornings from six to
ten on one two WVQ.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
There's a story here about a guy in Florida was
arrested for lying about his identity after forgetting who he
said he was. The Polk County Sheriff's Office reported that
fifty four year old Richard Hallmark told an officer that
his name was Robert Hallmark during a traffic stop. Let's
just pause, right, There always always a good move to
(00:39):
lie to the police, right when they ask you who
you are, brilliant, because it's not like they're going to
figure it out and then charge you for giving him
false information, all right. He then claimed to have a
brother named Robert and admitted to lying about his name
due to an outstanding warrant. Oh No reportedly found marriage,
(01:01):
ajjuana and meth amphetamine in the vehicle during a search,
which could explain some of his confusion. Hallmark has been
charged with two felonies and three misdemeanors. Prompting me to
ask you the question, why don't you tell us about
that time? You got caught in a lie. Now, I'm
(01:24):
not suggesting that it was something this big. I'm not
suggesting for a minute that you gentle people would go
around lying to the police. Yeah, maybe you have, and
if you have, I'd like to hear that story.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
A false identity.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yeah, but that's generally how things fall apart. When you lie.
You have to keep track of the lies, and if
you do it enough, then your stories get confused. Yeah,
and then you get caught. Yes, Okay, Now for most
of us, it's what people would call a little white lie.
(01:58):
You're maybe trying to spare somebody's feelings. Sure, so like
you say, oh, I'd like to come to your party.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Oh yeah, already have plan.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna I have to be over here. Yeah, okay,
I'm going to be out of town that weekend. And
then they run into you at Kroger and go, uh,
you know, the party is in like two hours. I
thought you said you were out of town, right, right,
I didn't mean this town that I'm out of. Okay,
Studio lines and text lines are open here eight eight
eight seven seven seven sixty six forty and again you
(02:29):
can't text this as well. My question again, that time
you got caught in a lie? What were you trying
to lie about? How did you get caught? How convoluted
was it? Nikki Drake, you were witness?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Oh goodness, when I was a child, what did I know?
I've got caught lying? But I can't like maybe it's
too traumatic and I can't recall immediately.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
But I know, my.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Sister, Oh, you know what we did.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
We were given a time limit on how much time
we could finished. You know this play session. You know,
you guys have this much time, five minutes and then
you got to clean up your toys and get ready
to go. So the timer was set on the oven,
like on the stovetop. So once it hit two minutes,
I went and added some more time to and they're like, hey,
(03:19):
what's going on? Well, the timer hasn't gone off yet.
Not knowing how time works, I can know how to
add time to the timer.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Adults have a concept of the passage of time.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Right I don't. So we got caught in that lie.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
That's well, you know that's wholesome, and you're right the
kid would you have been at that point?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Eight?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Okay? Now, when I was a teenager, I tried to
commit bank fraud. I think you maybe remember this story
because every time I see this woman back in Milk Creek,
she throws it in my face.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I don't remember this story.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Earlier this year. Well, I didn't know that what I
was doing was illegal. My buddy James had an account
at the Bank of Mill Creek and he wanted me
to withdraw some money. When I was on my way
through there, he was not with me. He said, here's
my past book, whatever, just go and tell them you're
me and they'll give you the money. And I was like, yeah,
it sounds like a great plan. I'm like seventeen, just
(04:14):
dumb as I can be, and I think maybe he
was trying to set me up to go to prison,
now that I think about it. But I went in
and tried to withdraw this money and the teller said, okay,
well you're not James, and I went, yeah, I'm James
and she went, no, you're Jack and I went no, no,
(04:34):
I can assure you I'm James and she went, look,
you little knucklehead. You were at my house last week
with my kids playing a football game. I know who
you are. I saw you there and I was like, no, no,
I'm James. She's like, well, when you were at the
house last week and you were calling yourself Jack, Well,
(04:55):
I'm stupid.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
If you'll just not call the police, I'll get out
of here and we'll never speak of this again. Oh man, Yeah,
I got caught, But how dumb am I couldn't remember
being in her house the previous week, and I was
probably sitting and talking to her head dinner with her family,
probably right. I was so focused on trying to do
my lousy Q. That happens to me a lot. That
time you got caught in a lie. Let's hear it
(05:20):
talking about getting caught in a lie. You are on
the Jack and Nikki Show. What you got for us?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
When I was younger in high school and I would
get in trouble, I would give uh substitute teachers different names.
So then when she wrote me like in school suspension
or like detention for lunch, right, like would I wouldn't
have to go because you know they would say random names.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
Well, one time the substitute was there and I was
being a knucklehead and I got structure much Well, the
next day that sure was back, but that substitute teacher
subbed for somebody else, so structured lunch came around and
he called off the name, and everybody kind of chuckled because,
(06:10):
of course everybody knew that that was like my alias.
Well of course, I mean I had to sure, but
but so I basically that person started calling it, everybody
started laughing. Uh, that teacher knew who subbed for them
the day before. He went to them and they said, yeah,
(06:32):
that's blah blah blah. And basically he was like, yeah,
that person doesn't go here, and he was like, oh, well,
well I'll go point him out. So sure enough, they
come into lunch room, he points right at me and
he goes, oh, that's and and I got three extra
days because of the.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Day.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
There you go. And that's when the school implemented the
photo ID policy after that. Yeah, yeah, that's fingerprints. Yeah
you know what, That's a great story though, because how
many times have we seen kids give the substitute teacher
the wrong name? Yeah, it happened, probably pulled off.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
Yeah, I probably pulled it off twenty five times before
I got in trouble.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
So yeah, yeah, exactly. It is a good record. Yeah, yeah,
you should be proud, I guess of that. Hey, man,
thanks for the call a lot, but they put him
in structured lunch, Nikki Drake, because as you know, in
any school, when the lunch is not properly structured, it's chaos.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Yes, the Nerve Center of North Central West Virginia Jack
Loger and Nikki Drake on one oh two WVAQ.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
A woman named Taylor was recently shocked when she found
her daughter playing with a stack of money totaling two
hundred and forty three dollars.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
My toddler has brought me two hundred and forty three
dollars in cash today, and I don't know whose money
this is or where it came from. I was cleaning
my bathroom and she was really quiet, and if you
have a toddler, you know that's never good. So I
go to check on her and she has a full
spread out on my living room couch. And then two
(08:16):
hours later she brings me two more fifty dollars bills.
I said, honey, where'd you find this?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Come on, let's play a game, Come show me.
Speaker 6 (08:24):
And she goes kee like, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
I don't know whose money that.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Is, and she goes, hey, hey, you know, when it
comes to having problems with your kids. I think this
is a pretty good problem to have. They shower you
with money that you don't know where it came from.
Nowsty money. There was a follow up video from this
woman and she says she thinks the money may have
(08:50):
been hidden in a chair that she picked up on
a curb. Oh. Now, she doesn't explain why she was
driving around picking up furniture that she saw sitting beside
the road. I think that's yet another mystery that needs
to be solved. But she thinks that possibly that's where
it came from that side the chair. Yeah, and the
roach infestation and but bugs also came out of the
(09:11):
chair very stained, So the mystery remains. Then that's just
her theory, but she doesn't know for sure. And this
prompts me to ask you the question, where do you
hide your money? I mean, are you one of those
people who has a cash reserve? You want to have
some cash on backup, which is smart. I mean that's
a good idea because all it takes is any type
(09:33):
of interruption in the system, and you can't use an ATM,
and you can't go to the bank and withdraw money
and you need it, So it's smart to have some
cash on hand, but it's unwise to have that cash
just lying around. Therefore, you need a hiding place. So
the question is where are you hiding cash? The studio
and textual lines are open eight eight eight seven seven
(09:55):
seven sixty six forty. I just want to know just
simple things, like where you live, specifically, I'm going to
need an address, and also where exactly in your home
this money is rake? Are you hiding any money?
Speaker 4 (10:08):
I hid money as a child. I squirrelled money away.
So did my sister. And I came across her stash
one day and it was behind.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
The backs of photos and frames.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Oh that's smart.
Speaker 7 (10:24):
Yeah, And I was like, what is all of this
doing here? Was like how many photo frames?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
This?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Has she done this too? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
And they were just photos that were around the house
or were they in her bedroom around okay? And she
was old at this point, probably middle school okay, school around.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
I don't remember that part.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Ballpark, I don't remember, I honest not even closed.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
I don't have no idea because I didn't I didn't
count it.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
I was just like, my gosh, there's money back here.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
I don't even remember why I was opening up the
back of a photo frame, like I haven't.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
I don't remember any of that. I just remember finding life.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
It's mostly a blur, it is.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Yeah, so, but I found that very interesting. I remember
hiding some money in like books.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Now that's more traditional, I think in the picture frame,
I think so too. Yeah, was it a hollowed out
book or.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Just it was just in pages?
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Okay, which was dangerous probably, but a hollowed out book
would have been easier. I think, sure, Yeah, I should
have invested in one of these.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Well that's one of your childhood regrets. Yeah, not investing
in hollowed out books.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
It's not like I didn't have like like a bank
or piggy banks or anything like that I had.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
But those visible so obvious. Well, yeah, they're clearly there's
going to be money inside those all right eight eight
eight seven seven seven sixty six forty And you can
text us as well. Just curious, if you are hiding money,
where are you hiding it? Do you have any good
hiding spots that maybe nobody's thought of. I think your
sister's hiding spot was really good. I think that was smart. Yeah,
I have no idea why you would have been going
(11:53):
through the year. You have no idea, all right, so
we'll get into that. And uh, and I'll tell you
what happened when I was a kid and I tried
to put some money away. Let's just say it didn't
end well. Like everything else in my childhood, the text
line is on far. So let's get some of these
texts here. Nikki Drake, what are you.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Seeing being a Harry Potter fan?
Speaker 4 (12:12):
I have mine hiding in a super bowl shaped like
a cauldron.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Okay, all right, well now we know if you have
a Harry Potter fan and your friend group, when you
go over there, check their soup bowls.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Great.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Yeah, I was.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
Cleaning out a drawer one day and threw away my
student handbook from high school. I pulled it out of
the bag to take a look at it real quick
before I tossed it and found two hundred dollars hidden
inside that almost went to the dump and don't remember
placing it in there.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
See, this is why people like to go dumpster diving. Yeah,
people like to dig through garbage because, yeah, you do
find things you never know.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Yeah, my wife's grandmother a hiding money in books.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
After she passed.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
They went searching through the bookshelf found several thousands dollars total,
and the most money was in the family Bible.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Yeah, family Bible, sure, yeah, a good place to do it.
Yeah yeah, although I don't know how hidden it is
at that point, but oh sure, sure, all right, anything else.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
Let's see, my mom bought me a cologne gift set
for my birthday.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I stashed my cash in the empty box.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Very good, okay, very good.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
That's also a good spot. Yeah, you're reusing and repurposing
that empty colone box.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, and your money smells fantastic. Okay. So here's what
happened when I was a kid. It the money wasn't
really hidden. I had a barrel in my bedroom with
rolls of pennies in it because my dad always had
a lot of pocket change, and he would give me change,
(13:47):
and you know, I would roll it up in these
little penny rolls and then I could take him to
the bank and cash them in. Sure, And I had
about fifty dollars worth in this barrel at one point.
And I went on a weekend trip with my mom.
This is obviously before she abandoned me, And when we
came back, found that my older brother had taken all
of those pennies and put him in a sack and
(14:11):
bought beer with them. No. Yeah, oh, but it's it's
even more egregious because he and one of his dopey
friends rode my motorcycle, which was a little Honda seventy.
Because I was a kid. Two teenagers, two drunken teenagers
run a Honda seventy. They rode at the valley Head
with a sack of pennies fifty dollars worth to buy beer.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Oh my gosh, yeah that's right.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
So I came back and my fifty dollars in pennies gone,
and my motorcycle wrecked.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Oh no, yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Nikki.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
No, so I guess are you holding this scrudge?
Speaker 2 (14:47):
No? No, Actually that's probably that's one of my better
childhood memories.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Actually that The Jack and Nikki Show one two WVAQ.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Let's turn our attention now to learning and growing as people.
There's a story of a guy who pulled a prank
on one on a first date. And what I want
to do is have this woman explain to you what
he did, and then I want to get some thoughts
from you, ladies on the studio and textual lines eight
(15:19):
eight eight seven seven seven sixty six forty is the
number to the show. And I think that this is
a good way, first of all, by talking to you ladies,
to gauge how this is going to play with you.
And this is a good way for men who are
listening to the show this morning to learn the do's
(15:40):
and do not do so first dates, Okay, see what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
All right, Okay, this is educational.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
It is educational, which is you know what we try
to do here, as you well know. So check this out.
This is the story this woman told about her first date.
Speaker 8 (15:54):
That's on hint. I meet him at a restaurant across
the street of sim Then he smiles one, two, three
or dor combs four teeth.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I'm sitting there like had four teeth?
Speaker 8 (16:06):
How is this happening? Comes over and give me a
big hug, ask me all these questions the whole time,
I'm like, where are your teeth? Later comes over, let
us about the specials, intargeting him about the fish specials.
He's asking him like detailed questions about the bones. Beliz
it a lot of bones, is a little bit of
the bones. And though he's like it's a regular amount
of bones, and he's like, well, you know, I have
to be careful because of my Now I'm going to
(16:28):
talk about his own He had entered the conversation, pulls
them out. It was a joke. Oh, fake teeth like
a Halloween costume. Perfect straight teeth under the fake teeth.
This is this trick that he does on first dates
to see how the girl is going to react.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
All right, there you go. The guy showed up with
fake teeth. All their first date, he had fake teeth
indicating that he only had four teeth. So my question
to you, ladies, how would you respond to this if
a guy showed up and did this on a first date? Yeah?
Is this a good idea? Is this a good way
(17:09):
to stand out, to get a laugh, to separate himself
from the herd, from other guys who are going to
show up with more standard approaches? Or is it too soon?
Would you be like, Eh, it's right out of the gate,
let's not do this. So that's what I want to know.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
It's a flag. I don't know what color it is,
maybe like orange, is that right?
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (17:29):
Because is he doing this just to like gauge your reaction?
And is he trying to see if you're superficial or
or superficial or with fourteen, I'm not interested? Or is
he a prankster? And is this just the tip of
the iceberg?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
That's a fair question, right, you could be going out
with somebody who annoys you all the time with constance gets.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Right, or is going to be annoying your family? You know,
like so and if that's not your style, then that's
you know.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yeah, that's okay, Yeah, that's true. Though some people are
not prank people. I'm not. I mean, something happens and
you know, right, you end up soaking wet or something.
You now you're like, oh great, that's a good joke
and now I have to walk around with this all day. No,
that's a good point. All right, this is why we're
having the conversation. Thanks for the call. You were on
(18:20):
the Jack and Nikki Show. What do you think here?
Speaker 9 (18:24):
I think that's weird And honestly glad he did it
on the first date so that person can move on
with their lives and never revisit that encounter again. Wow
all right, wow, because it's okay. Here's the thing. If
they weren't the opposite, like if this person had in
nice fake teeth because they really didn't have teeth underneath,
(18:47):
and they're like, oh, hey, you know I had to
take my fake teeth out because I don't have real teeth,
Like that's something they can't control.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Um hum.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
But to come out with the facade that you have
these this problem because you think it's funny on a
first encounter, that wouldn't be funny to me. That would
just make me be like, Okay, I think I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Leave, right, Yeah, that's funny. That's that's very interesting.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
M hmm.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I think I'm gonna leave.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah. I mean there's so many concerns like.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Well, yeah, and I think, as you know, Nikki said
a few minutes ago, if you're not a prank type person.
Some people love pranks, some people don't. And if you
don't like them, and that's what this guy does, eh,
not gonna work out, right.
Speaker 9 (19:40):
And if you don't know me and you're gonna be
pranking me, what are you gonna do? What type of
things are you gonna do when you do know me?
Speaker 2 (19:46):
You know what? That's a good point, yeah, because you
need to tailor your comedy stylings to the person person, right,
So once you get to know somebody if if you
know them well enough and you're like, oh, they would
think this is funny, and then you do it, right,
but you don't know the sensibility of the person, yeah,
because you just met him, right.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
And the next thing you know, he's fake chopping off
a finger and there's catch up squirting everywhere.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
You're having a heart attack because you.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
Panicked so much over it, Like, yeah, it's so funny.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
That's very interesting. All right, all right again, this is
why we have the conversation. Man, thankcause, thanks for the
call first of all, But before you go, have you
had any first date disasters like this? Have you ever
had anybody to do anything weird that you just went
that's in them out?
Speaker 9 (20:27):
Actually no, because I've only actually dated people that I
had already ended up yep. And if my current relationship ends,
I'm just not dating anymore because I'm not going into
this type of field.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Okay, it's the who needs the aggravation approach to dating?
All right? Thanks again, exactly, bye bye.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Moving off of the prank part of it, it's also like,
this is your first impression.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
You get one chance for a first impression.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Sure, what is that the impression you want?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
To make impression you want to make.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Yeah, I'm the jokestar. You know what, Let me tell
you what I think he may have been trying to do.
And I don't want to give this guy too much credit,
but it might be this psychological tactic that some people do.
You know, when you have moderately bad news that you
(21:27):
have to tell somebody, Yeah, and what you'll do is
make up a story that's way worse, and then when
they're all upset about that, you go, no, no, that
didn't happen. Here's what really happened. And then the real
bad news is nowhere near is and they're relieved. Right Like,
I think we had some woman calling her time and
(21:47):
say that she had some bad news. She was in college,
and she like she dented the car or something, and
she called her parents and was like, I got kicked
out of school something terrible, this and that, blah blah,
and her parents like, oh my car. She's like, no, no,
that's not what happened. I scratched the car. And now
they're like, oh, well, that's no big deal. Thank god,
that's all it is. Whereas if she had just led with, hey,
(22:10):
I scratched the car.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I just scratch the car.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
So maybe this guy is what is he hiding, Well,
maybe he's maybe he's he's going in and he's thinking, Okay,
I'm gonna set the bar at I have four teeth,
and she's going to be like, oh my god, this
dude only has four teeth, and she's going to be concerned,
let's say about that. And then when he reveals the
lovely pearly white, she's like, oh, thank god, he has
(22:33):
all of his teeth. This is and now he's more
attractive to her.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Okay, but why does he have to do that? Does
he have a horrible personality?
Speaker 2 (22:41):
No, he's probably not very attractive to begin with.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Feet what's going on?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Maybe all of those things. Maybe all of those things.
But but you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Like it.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Let's say the guy is a solid five or six. Huh,
but he presents initially as a two, and then when
he he pops back out as a five or a
six once those teeth cut out, she sees him as
a seven. I'm not saying he's actually doing that. I'm
just saying, maybe time to talk about eves dropping. We
(23:16):
all do it. Don't act like you don't do it.
I'm not going to sit here and be judged by
a bunch of hypocrites. Oh okay, Now I'm going to
admit to you that I did a little eaves dropping
last week. Jessica and I were at Astle in Virginia.
We were in Stanton, Virginia, which is lovely by the way, Okay, yeah, lovely,
(23:39):
lovely area. And we were at a restaurant and we
could hear a group of people talking beside us, and
I would like to share with you the things that
we heard, but also I'd like for you to share
with me the things that you have heard. Okay, it's
only fair turnabout's fair play eight eight eight seven seven
seven forty. Or you can text the show with something
(24:03):
that you've overheard while you've dropping. This could be in
any number of places. Now, we were at this restaurant
and there was a group of people. It was a
kind of a big family get together thing. There must
have been about eight of them, no, maybe eight people,
and they're all talking at the same time, on top
of each other, you know, as groups of people do
(24:23):
yes and once in a while we hear some dopey
guy trying to make jokes that are inappropriate and lame, you.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
Know, yeah, falling flat.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Yeah yeah. And in that whole group of people, they're all, yeah,
look like they're in their forties, a few of them
in their twenties. But there's one woman who stands out.
She looks to be about eighty. Okay, she's older. You know,
she's got that kind of look about her. You know,
she's a little bit hunched over. She's got the white hair,
(24:54):
you know, the face, so you can tell, you're like, okay,
she looks like she's maybe about eighty years old. Okay.
At one point, I hear you're a guy say to
this woman, so what did you do during World War Two?
And I said, hang on, Jessica, this is going somewhere. Okay, yeah,
let's see, let's see what this is. And she says, well,
(25:17):
I had just graduated from high school and I went
to work in a factory. Now we're able to discern
by listening to this woman, she mentions the year of
her birthdate and told you was that woman sitting at
that table was over one hundred years old?
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Whoa, yeah, wow, she.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Was about one hundred two. Wow. Now if she's an
adult in working in a factory during World War two,
which was nineteen forty one to nineteen forty five. Okay,
as soon as I heard she was an adult working
in a factory during I was like, Jessica, she has
to be like one hundred years old, and she went
I was one hundred. I was like what, And so
(26:01):
I started saying to Jessica, she's she's over one hundred.
She this woman isn't like one hundred two years old?
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Yeah, because she was at minimum what eighteen?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Right, Yeah, she's well. As her story continued that we
was you know, we were overhearing. Okay, uh she It
turned out we did the math she was about one
hundred two.
Speaker 7 (26:20):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Wow, Okay, this is incredible.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
It is incredible, And I wanted to get involved. I
wanted to go over and be like, oh my god,
let me shake your hand, thank you for your effort
during the war, A greatful nation, salute you. And Jessica's like,
sit down, do not go over there. First of all,
you have to admit that you're over the conversation. And
I know that you know you love America, You're very patriotic,
(26:47):
and you want to go and and thank this nice woman.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
But you are also being a creeper.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
But also it's totally inappropriate. And and also she didn't
look like she was over a hundred, which I I
thought was really interesting. And I started to think, well,
you know, that's the thing about aging, isn't it. You know,
it's hard if you see somebody between the ages of
eighty and one hundred, there's not a lot of difference
(27:12):
in appearance. I mean, once you get into your eighties, okay,
you nobody looks at a ninety five year old and goes, well,
I can tell a big difference between that and eighty five.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Right.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
It's kind of like when you're when you're twenty five
or you're thirty five, you pretty much look the same.
It's those middle years when you start to come unhinged,
you know, I start to fall apart. Wow, right, Yeah,
that's true. It's true. You can tell a difference between
somebody who's forty and somebody who's sixty. Yeah, you can
tell by looking at them, sure, but somebody who's eighty
and one hundred you can't tell. Anyway, this was one
(27:47):
of the most interesting things I've ever heard. Wouldn't you agree.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
That is very interesting? Yeah, it is very interesting.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Because normally what I hear is a bunch of dummies
bragging about how drunk they were the night before. You know,
something stupid like that, I drink so much. No, I
drink more. That's usually what you hear. And she's like,
I worked in a factory during the war, and I'm like,
you're a hero. Eight eight eight seven seven seven sixty
six forty. You could text us. I'm just curious, what
(28:14):
is the most interesting thing that you have overheard? If anything,
I don't know, maybe you ever heard anything.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
No, you should have done.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
You should have bought her a drink and had it
sent over to the table. They all could have pointed, oh, ma'am,
this is for you from the gentleman over.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Here, from the eavesdropping. You know what. I actually thought
about that, but I was afraid it would kill her.
That's the last station she lived, one hundred and two,
and then some stranger in a restaurant sent her a
drink and she died.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
Drink
If you're listening to the Jack and Nikki Show podcast
everywhere you get your podcasts and at WBQ dot com.
Joined Jack and Nicky Live weekday mornings from six to
ten on one two WVQ.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
There's a story here about a guy in Florida was
arrested for lying about his identity after forgetting who he
said he was. The Polk County Sheriff's Office reported that
fifty four year old Richard Hallmark told an officer that
his name was Robert Hallmark during a traffic stop. Let's
just pause, right, There always always a good move to
(00:39):
lie to the police, right when they ask you who
you are, brilliant, because it's not like they're going to
figure it out and then charge you for giving him
false information, all right. He then claimed to have a
brother named Robert and admitted to lying about his name
due to an outstanding warrant. Oh No reportedly found marriage,
(01:01):
ajjuana and meth amphetamine in the vehicle during a search,
which could explain some of his confusion. Hallmark has been
charged with two felonies and three misdemeanors. Prompting me to
ask you the question, why don't you tell us about
that time? You got caught in a lie. Now, I'm
(01:24):
not suggesting that it was something this big. I'm not
suggesting for a minute that you gentle people would go
around lying to the police. Yeah, maybe you have, and
if you have, I'd like to hear that story.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
A false identity.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yeah, but that's generally how things fall apart. When you lie.
You have to keep track of the lies, and if
you do it enough, then your stories get confused. Yeah,
and then you get caught. Yes, Okay, Now for most
of us, it's what people would call a little white lie.
(01:58):
You're maybe trying to spare somebody's feelings. Sure, so like
you say, oh, I'd like to come to your party.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Oh yeah, already have plan.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna I have to be over here. Yeah, okay,
I'm going to be out of town that weekend. And
then they run into you at Kroger and go, uh,
you know, the party is in like two hours. I
thought you said you were out of town, right, right,
I didn't mean this town that I'm out of. Okay,
Studio lines and text lines are open here eight eight
eight seven seven seven sixty six forty and again you
(02:29):
can't text this as well. My question again, that time
you got caught in a lie? What were you trying
to lie about? How did you get caught? How convoluted
was it? Nikki Drake, you were witness?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Oh goodness, when I was a child, what did I know?
I've got caught lying? But I can't like maybe it's
too traumatic and I can't recall immediately.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
But I know, my.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Sister, Oh, you know what we did.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
We were given a time limit on how much time
we could finished. You know this play session. You know,
you guys have this much time, five minutes and then
you got to clean up your toys and get ready
to go. So the timer was set on the oven,
like on the stovetop. So once it hit two minutes,
I went and added some more time to and they're like, hey,
(03:19):
what's going on? Well, the timer hasn't gone off yet.
Not knowing how time works, I can know how to
add time to the timer.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Adults have a concept of the passage of time.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Right I don't. So we got caught in that lie.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
That's well, you know that's wholesome, and you're right the
kid would you have been at that point?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Eight?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Okay? Now, when I was a teenager, I tried to
commit bank fraud. I think you maybe remember this story
because every time I see this woman back in Milk Creek,
she throws it in my face.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I don't remember this story.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Earlier this year. Well, I didn't know that what I
was doing was illegal. My buddy James had an account
at the Bank of Mill Creek and he wanted me
to withdraw some money. When I was on my way
through there, he was not with me. He said, here's
my past book, whatever, just go and tell them you're
me and they'll give you the money. And I was like, yeah,
it sounds like a great plan. I'm like seventeen, just
(04:14):
dumb as I can be, and I think maybe he
was trying to set me up to go to prison,
now that I think about it. But I went in
and tried to withdraw this money and the teller said, okay,
well you're not James, and I went, yeah, I'm James
and she went, no, you're Jack and I went no, no,
(04:34):
I can assure you I'm James and she went, look,
you little knucklehead. You were at my house last week
with my kids playing a football game. I know who
you are. I saw you there and I was like, no, no,
I'm James. She's like, well, when you were at the
house last week and you were calling yourself Jack, Well,
(04:55):
I'm stupid.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
If you'll just not call the police, I'll get out
of here and we'll never speak of this again. Oh man, Yeah,
I got caught, But how dumb am I couldn't remember
being in her house the previous week, and I was
probably sitting and talking to her head dinner with her family,
probably right. I was so focused on trying to do
my lousy Q. That happens to me a lot. That
time you got caught in a lie. Let's hear it
(05:20):
talking about getting caught in a lie. You are on
the Jack and Nikki Show. What you got for us?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
When I was younger in high school and I would
get in trouble, I would give uh substitute teachers different names.
So then when she wrote me like in school suspension
or like detention for lunch, right, like would I wouldn't
have to go because you know they would say random names.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
Well, one time the substitute was there and I was
being a knucklehead and I got structure much Well, the
next day that sure was back, but that substitute teacher
subbed for somebody else, so structured lunch came around and
he called off the name, and everybody kind of chuckled because,
(06:10):
of course everybody knew that that was like my alias.
Well of course, I mean I had to sure, but
but so I basically that person started calling it, everybody
started laughing. Uh, that teacher knew who subbed for them
the day before. He went to them and they said, yeah,
(06:32):
that's blah blah blah. And basically he was like, yeah,
that person doesn't go here, and he was like, oh, well,
well I'll go point him out. So sure enough, they
come into lunch room, he points right at me and
he goes, oh, that's and and I got three extra
days because of the.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Day.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
There you go. And that's when the school implemented the
photo ID policy after that. Yeah, yeah, that's fingerprints. Yeah
you know what, That's a great story though, because how
many times have we seen kids give the substitute teacher
the wrong name? Yeah, it happened, probably pulled off.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
Yeah, I probably pulled it off twenty five times before
I got in trouble.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
So yeah, yeah, exactly. It is a good record. Yeah, yeah,
you should be proud, I guess of that. Hey, man,
thanks for the call a lot, but they put him
in structured lunch, Nikki Drake, because as you know, in
any school, when the lunch is not properly structured, it's chaos.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Yes, the Nerve Center of North Central West Virginia Jack
Loger and Nikki Drake on one oh two WVAQ.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
A woman named Taylor was recently shocked when she found
her daughter playing with a stack of money totaling two
hundred and forty three dollars.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
My toddler has brought me two hundred and forty three
dollars in cash today, and I don't know whose money
this is or where it came from. I was cleaning
my bathroom and she was really quiet, and if you
have a toddler, you know that's never good. So I
go to check on her and she has a full
spread out on my living room couch. And then two
(08:16):
hours later she brings me two more fifty dollars bills.
I said, honey, where'd you find this?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Come on, let's play a game, Come show me.
Speaker 6 (08:24):
And she goes kee like, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
I don't know whose money that.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Is, and she goes, hey, hey, you know, when it
comes to having problems with your kids. I think this
is a pretty good problem to have. They shower you
with money that you don't know where it came from.
Nowsty money. There was a follow up video from this
woman and she says she thinks the money may have
(08:50):
been hidden in a chair that she picked up on
a curb. Oh. Now, she doesn't explain why she was
driving around picking up furniture that she saw sitting beside
the road. I think that's yet another mystery that needs
to be solved. But she thinks that possibly that's where
it came from that side the chair. Yeah, and the
roach infestation and but bugs also came out of the
(09:11):
chair very stained, So the mystery remains. Then that's just
her theory, but she doesn't know for sure. And this
prompts me to ask you the question, where do you
hide your money? I mean, are you one of those
people who has a cash reserve? You want to have
some cash on backup, which is smart. I mean that's
a good idea because all it takes is any type
(09:33):
of interruption in the system, and you can't use an ATM,
and you can't go to the bank and withdraw money
and you need it, So it's smart to have some
cash on hand, but it's unwise to have that cash
just lying around. Therefore, you need a hiding place. So
the question is where are you hiding cash? The studio
and textual lines are open eight eight eight seven seven
(09:55):
seven sixty six forty. I just want to know just
simple things, like where you live, specifically, I'm going to
need an address, and also where exactly in your home
this money is rake? Are you hiding any money?
Speaker 4 (10:08):
I hid money as a child. I squirrelled money away.
So did my sister. And I came across her stash
one day and it was behind.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
The backs of photos and frames.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Oh that's smart.
Speaker 7 (10:24):
Yeah, And I was like, what is all of this
doing here? Was like how many photo frames?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
This?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Has she done this too? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
And they were just photos that were around the house
or were they in her bedroom around okay? And she
was old at this point, probably middle school okay, school around.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
I don't remember that part.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Ballpark, I don't remember, I honest not even closed.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
I don't have no idea because I didn't I didn't
count it.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
I was just like, my gosh, there's money back here.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
I don't even remember why I was opening up the
back of a photo frame, like I haven't.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
I don't remember any of that. I just remember finding life.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
It's mostly a blur, it is.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Yeah, so, but I found that very interesting. I remember
hiding some money in like books.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Now that's more traditional, I think in the picture frame,
I think so too. Yeah, was it a hollowed out
book or.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Just it was just in pages?
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Okay, which was dangerous probably, but a hollowed out book
would have been easier. I think, sure, Yeah, I should
have invested in one of these.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Well that's one of your childhood regrets. Yeah, not investing
in hollowed out books.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
It's not like I didn't have like like a bank
or piggy banks or anything like that I had.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
But those visible so obvious. Well, yeah, they're clearly there's
going to be money inside those all right eight eight
eight seven seven seven sixty six forty And you can
text us as well. Just curious, if you are hiding money,
where are you hiding it? Do you have any good
hiding spots that maybe nobody's thought of. I think your
sister's hiding spot was really good. I think that was smart. Yeah,
I have no idea why you would have been going
(11:53):
through the year. You have no idea, all right, so
we'll get into that. And uh, and I'll tell you
what happened when I was a kid and I tried
to put some money away. Let's just say it didn't
end well. Like everything else in my childhood, the text
line is on far. So let's get some of these
texts here. Nikki Drake, what are you.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Seeing being a Harry Potter fan?
Speaker 4 (12:12):
I have mine hiding in a super bowl shaped like
a cauldron.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Okay, all right, well now we know if you have
a Harry Potter fan and your friend group, when you
go over there, check their soup bowls.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Great.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Yeah, I was.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
Cleaning out a drawer one day and threw away my
student handbook from high school. I pulled it out of
the bag to take a look at it real quick
before I tossed it and found two hundred dollars hidden
inside that almost went to the dump and don't remember
placing it in there.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
See, this is why people like to go dumpster diving. Yeah,
people like to dig through garbage because, yeah, you do
find things you never know.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Yeah, my wife's grandmother a hiding money in books.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
After she passed.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
They went searching through the bookshelf found several thousands dollars total,
and the most money was in the family Bible.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Yeah, family Bible, sure, yeah, a good place to do it.
Yeah yeah, although I don't know how hidden it is
at that point, but oh sure, sure, all right, anything else.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
Let's see, my mom bought me a cologne gift set
for my birthday.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I stashed my cash in the empty box.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Very good, okay, very good.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
That's also a good spot. Yeah, you're reusing and repurposing
that empty colone box.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, and your money smells fantastic. Okay. So here's what
happened when I was a kid. It the money wasn't
really hidden. I had a barrel in my bedroom with
rolls of pennies in it because my dad always had
a lot of pocket change, and he would give me change,
(13:47):
and you know, I would roll it up in these
little penny rolls and then I could take him to
the bank and cash them in. Sure, And I had
about fifty dollars worth in this barrel at one point.
And I went on a weekend trip with my mom.
This is obviously before she abandoned me, And when we
came back, found that my older brother had taken all
of those pennies and put him in a sack and
(14:11):
bought beer with them. No. Yeah, oh, but it's it's
even more egregious because he and one of his dopey
friends rode my motorcycle, which was a little Honda seventy.
Because I was a kid. Two teenagers, two drunken teenagers
run a Honda seventy. They rode at the valley Head
with a sack of pennies fifty dollars worth to buy beer.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Oh my gosh, yeah that's right.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
So I came back and my fifty dollars in pennies gone,
and my motorcycle wrecked.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Oh no, yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Nikki.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
No, so I guess are you holding this scrudge?
Speaker 2 (14:47):
No? No, Actually that's probably that's one of my better
childhood memories.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Actually that The Jack and Nikki Show one two WVAQ.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Let's turn our attention now to learning and growing as people.
There's a story of a guy who pulled a prank
on one on a first date. And what I want
to do is have this woman explain to you what
he did, and then I want to get some thoughts
from you, ladies on the studio and textual lines eight
(15:19):
eight eight seven seven seven sixty six forty is the
number to the show. And I think that this is
a good way, first of all, by talking to you ladies,
to gauge how this is going to play with you.
And this is a good way for men who are
listening to the show this morning to learn the do's
(15:40):
and do not do so first dates, Okay, see what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
All right, Okay, this is educational.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
It is educational, which is you know what we try
to do here, as you well know. So check this out.
This is the story this woman told about her first date.
Speaker 8 (15:54):
That's on hint. I meet him at a restaurant across
the street of sim Then he smiles one, two, three
or dor combs four teeth.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I'm sitting there like had four teeth?
Speaker 8 (16:06):
How is this happening? Comes over and give me a
big hug, ask me all these questions the whole time,
I'm like, where are your teeth? Later comes over, let
us about the specials, intargeting him about the fish specials.
He's asking him like detailed questions about the bones. Beliz
it a lot of bones, is a little bit of
the bones. And though he's like it's a regular amount
of bones, and he's like, well, you know, I have
to be careful because of my Now I'm going to
(16:28):
talk about his own He had entered the conversation, pulls
them out. It was a joke. Oh, fake teeth like
a Halloween costume. Perfect straight teeth under the fake teeth.
This is this trick that he does on first dates
to see how the girl is going to react.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
All right, there you go. The guy showed up with
fake teeth. All their first date, he had fake teeth
indicating that he only had four teeth. So my question
to you, ladies, how would you respond to this if
a guy showed up and did this on a first date? Yeah?
Is this a good idea? Is this a good way
(17:09):
to stand out, to get a laugh, to separate himself
from the herd, from other guys who are going to
show up with more standard approaches? Or is it too soon?
Would you be like, Eh, it's right out of the gate,
let's not do this. So that's what I want to know.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
It's a flag. I don't know what color it is,
maybe like orange, is that right?
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (17:29):
Because is he doing this just to like gauge your reaction?
And is he trying to see if you're superficial or
or superficial or with fourteen, I'm not interested? Or is
he a prankster? And is this just the tip of
the iceberg?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
That's a fair question, right, you could be going out
with somebody who annoys you all the time with constance gets.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Right, or is going to be annoying your family? You know,
like so and if that's not your style, then that's
you know.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yeah, that's okay, Yeah, that's true. Though some people are
not prank people. I'm not. I mean, something happens and
you know, right, you end up soaking wet or something.
You now you're like, oh great, that's a good joke
and now I have to walk around with this all day. No,
that's a good point. All right, this is why we're
having the conversation. Thanks for the call. You were on
(18:20):
the Jack and Nikki Show. What do you think here?
Speaker 9 (18:24):
I think that's weird And honestly glad he did it
on the first date so that person can move on
with their lives and never revisit that encounter again. Wow
all right, wow, because it's okay. Here's the thing. If
they weren't the opposite, like if this person had in
nice fake teeth because they really didn't have teeth underneath,
(18:47):
and they're like, oh, hey, you know I had to
take my fake teeth out because I don't have real teeth,
Like that's something they can't control.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Um hum.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
But to come out with the facade that you have
these this problem because you think it's funny on a
first encounter, that wouldn't be funny to me. That would
just make me be like, Okay, I think I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Leave, right, Yeah, that's funny. That's that's very interesting.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
M hmm.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I think I'm gonna leave.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah. I mean there's so many concerns like.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Well, yeah, and I think, as you know, Nikki said
a few minutes ago, if you're not a prank type person.
Some people love pranks, some people don't. And if you
don't like them, and that's what this guy does, eh,
not gonna work out, right.
Speaker 9 (19:40):
And if you don't know me and you're gonna be
pranking me, what are you gonna do? What type of
things are you gonna do when you do know me?
Speaker 2 (19:46):
You know what? That's a good point, yeah, because you
need to tailor your comedy stylings to the person person, right,
So once you get to know somebody if if you
know them well enough and you're like, oh, they would
think this is funny, and then you do it, right,
but you don't know the sensibility of the person, yeah,
because you just met him, right.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
And the next thing you know, he's fake chopping off
a finger and there's catch up squirting everywhere.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
You're having a heart attack because you.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
Panicked so much over it, Like, yeah, it's so funny.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
That's very interesting. All right, all right again, this is
why we have the conversation. Man, thankcause, thanks for the
call first of all, But before you go, have you
had any first date disasters like this? Have you ever
had anybody to do anything weird that you just went
that's in them out?
Speaker 9 (20:27):
Actually no, because I've only actually dated people that I
had already ended up yep. And if my current relationship ends,
I'm just not dating anymore because I'm not going into
this type of field.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Okay, it's the who needs the aggravation approach to dating?
All right? Thanks again, exactly, bye bye.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Moving off of the prank part of it, it's also like,
this is your first impression.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
You get one chance for a first impression.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Sure, what is that the impression you want?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
To make impression you want to make.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Yeah, I'm the jokestar. You know what, Let me tell
you what I think he may have been trying to do.
And I don't want to give this guy too much credit,
but it might be this psychological tactic that some people do.
You know, when you have moderately bad news that you
(21:27):
have to tell somebody, Yeah, and what you'll do is
make up a story that's way worse, and then when
they're all upset about that, you go, no, no, that
didn't happen. Here's what really happened. And then the real
bad news is nowhere near is and they're relieved. Right Like,
I think we had some woman calling her time and
(21:47):
say that she had some bad news. She was in college,
and she like she dented the car or something, and
she called her parents and was like, I got kicked
out of school something terrible, this and that, blah blah,
and her parents like, oh my car. She's like, no, no,
that's not what happened. I scratched the car. And now
they're like, oh, well, that's no big deal. Thank god,
that's all it is. Whereas if she had just led with, hey,
(22:10):
I scratched the car.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I just scratch the car.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
So maybe this guy is what is he hiding, Well,
maybe he's maybe he's he's going in and he's thinking, Okay,
I'm gonna set the bar at I have four teeth,
and she's going to be like, oh my god, this
dude only has four teeth, and she's going to be concerned,
let's say about that. And then when he reveals the
lovely pearly white, she's like, oh, thank god, he has
(22:33):
all of his teeth. This is and now he's more
attractive to her.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Okay, but why does he have to do that? Does
he have a horrible personality?
Speaker 2 (22:41):
No, he's probably not very attractive to begin with.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Feet what's going on?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Maybe all of those things. Maybe all of those things.
But but you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Like it.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Let's say the guy is a solid five or six. Huh,
but he presents initially as a two, and then when
he he pops back out as a five or a
six once those teeth cut out, she sees him as
a seven. I'm not saying he's actually doing that. I'm
just saying, maybe time to talk about eves dropping. We
(23:16):
all do it. Don't act like you don't do it.
I'm not going to sit here and be judged by
a bunch of hypocrites. Oh okay, Now I'm going to
admit to you that I did a little eaves dropping
last week. Jessica and I were at Astle in Virginia.
We were in Stanton, Virginia, which is lovely by the way, Okay, yeah, lovely,
(23:39):
lovely area. And we were at a restaurant and we
could hear a group of people talking beside us, and
I would like to share with you the things that
we heard, but also I'd like for you to share
with me the things that you have heard. Okay, it's
only fair turnabout's fair play eight eight eight seven seven
seven forty. Or you can text the show with something
(24:03):
that you've overheard while you've dropping. This could be in
any number of places. Now, we were at this restaurant
and there was a group of people. It was a
kind of a big family get together thing. There must
have been about eight of them, no, maybe eight people,
and they're all talking at the same time, on top
of each other, you know, as groups of people do
(24:23):
yes and once in a while we hear some dopey
guy trying to make jokes that are inappropriate and lame, you.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
Know, yeah, falling flat.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Yeah yeah. And in that whole group of people, they're all, yeah,
look like they're in their forties, a few of them
in their twenties. But there's one woman who stands out.
She looks to be about eighty. Okay, she's older. You know,
she's got that kind of look about her. You know,
she's a little bit hunched over. She's got the white hair,
(24:54):
you know, the face, so you can tell, you're like, okay,
she looks like she's maybe about eighty years old. Okay.
At one point, I hear you're a guy say to
this woman, so what did you do during World War Two?
And I said, hang on, Jessica, this is going somewhere. Okay, yeah,
let's see, let's see what this is. And she says, well,
(25:17):
I had just graduated from high school and I went
to work in a factory. Now we're able to discern
by listening to this woman, she mentions the year of
her birthdate and told you was that woman sitting at
that table was over one hundred years old?
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Whoa, yeah, wow, she.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Was about one hundred two. Wow. Now if she's an
adult in working in a factory during World War two,
which was nineteen forty one to nineteen forty five. Okay,
as soon as I heard she was an adult working
in a factory during I was like, Jessica, she has
to be like one hundred years old, and she went
I was one hundred. I was like what, And so
(26:01):
I started saying to Jessica, she's she's over one hundred.
She this woman isn't like one hundred two years old?
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Yeah, because she was at minimum what eighteen?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Right, Yeah, she's well. As her story continued that we
was you know, we were overhearing. Okay, uh she It
turned out we did the math she was about one
hundred two.
Speaker 7 (26:20):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Wow, Okay, this is incredible.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
It is incredible, And I wanted to get involved. I
wanted to go over and be like, oh my god,
let me shake your hand, thank you for your effort
during the war, A greatful nation, salute you. And Jessica's like,
sit down, do not go over there. First of all,
you have to admit that you're over the conversation. And
I know that you know you love America, You're very patriotic,
(26:47):
and you want to go and and thank this nice woman.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
But you are also being a creeper.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
But also it's totally inappropriate. And and also she didn't
look like she was over a hundred, which I I
thought was really interesting. And I started to think, well,
you know, that's the thing about aging, isn't it. You know,
it's hard if you see somebody between the ages of
eighty and one hundred, there's not a lot of difference
(27:12):
in appearance. I mean, once you get into your eighties, okay,
you nobody looks at a ninety five year old and goes, well,
I can tell a big difference between that and eighty five.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Right.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
It's kind of like when you're when you're twenty five
or you're thirty five, you pretty much look the same.
It's those middle years when you start to come unhinged,
you know, I start to fall apart. Wow, right, Yeah,
that's true. It's true. You can tell a difference between
somebody who's forty and somebody who's sixty. Yeah, you can
tell by looking at them, sure, but somebody who's eighty
and one hundred you can't tell. Anyway, this was one
(27:47):
of the most interesting things I've ever heard. Wouldn't you agree.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
That is very interesting? Yeah, it is very interesting.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Because normally what I hear is a bunch of dummies
bragging about how drunk they were the night before. You know,
something stupid like that, I drink so much. No, I
drink more. That's usually what you hear. And she's like,
I worked in a factory during the war, and I'm like,
you're a hero. Eight eight eight seven seven seven sixty
six forty. You could text us. I'm just curious, what
(28:14):
is the most interesting thing that you have overheard? If anything,
I don't know, maybe you ever heard anything.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
No, you should have done.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
You should have bought her a drink and had it
sent over to the table. They all could have pointed, oh, ma'am,
this is for you from the gentleman over.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Here, from the eavesdropping. You know what. I actually thought
about that, but I was afraid it would kill her.
That's the last station she lived, one hundred and two,
and then some stranger in a restaurant sent her a
drink and she died.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
