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 O two WVAQ.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
It's Jack and Nikki with a story that well, a
lot of people don't know what this is.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
You got fired?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Why?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Oh well, it's no wonder they finally caught you doing
that in here?
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Working hard, hardly working? Am I? I thought you were working?
Speaker 4 (00:30):
Him?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Working here? Are you gonna get me fired?
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Are you kidding?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I'm working.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I regret offending my coworkers, OHM expecting to work.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
I did.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Okay, this is the kind of story that will not
only make your blood run cold, but will also perhaps
make you a little bit paranoid. Uh oh yeah, yeah,
that's right. It's the story of a quote unquote man
from Millie Walker named Joseph Ross. He has been charged
with placing foreign objects in his coworker's drink. Yes, objects
(01:02):
described as foreign in nature that would not normally appear
in that beverage.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
The victim, what was placed in the street.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
We're getting there, okay, identified as simply j H suspected
that her coca cola had been tampered with when she
noticed a chemical smell and taste. JH says she then
installed a camera and captured Ross pouring super glue into
her drink. Oh my gosh, super glue.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Wow. Right, you're not supposed to ingest that.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
No, you're not. I know you're not a doctor. But
that's a good call.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Yeah, that's a good call. Yeah. When questioned by police,
Ross reportedly confessed to adding a supplement to the drink.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Supplement that's what he called it.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Wow, that's right, he was. He's really just trying to
help her out with some implements. A search of Ross's
office uncovered a wadded bowl of glue, described as alarming
and evidence. And so he is being prosecuted because it
turns out, no matter how much you dislike your coworkers,
(02:16):
you can't pour super glue into their beverages.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Wo.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
I know this is quite shocking.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
God.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah. Now you also can't put roundup in their food,
but you can bring them girl Scout cookies say, yeah,
the same thing. Basically, Some would say.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
It's so ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Studio lines are open, triple eight, triple seven, sixty six
forty You can call us on that lining textus also Texas,
if you'd like it, three five six, five to one.
I just want to toss the question out to you.
Have you ever caught somebody putting something in your food?
Have you ever discovered something in your food? Maybe from
a coworker or maybe you yourself have done it. And
(02:53):
that's why this is an opportunity for you to text
in anonymously. We don't have your information necessarily, don't know
who you are or where you are. So if you
wanted to text in and say admit to what is
essentially a crime, which the more I'm describing it, the
less likely it seems that you're going to participate. But
(03:15):
maybe we should focus on the victims, people who've had
things placed in their food. Sure, do you ever find
anything in your food? I mean that you think somebody
got there on purpose.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
It was purposefully done.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Yeah no, no, no, haven't either, thank god. But I
mean that doesn't mean that you know hasn't happened.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Sure, you're just you have no idea.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I just didn't catch it. Now, I have been mocked
by condiments. I mean that's happened to me.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
You've been mocked by what does the ketchup bot rules.
Just start talking to you.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
No. No. If you go to let's say a drive through,
for example, and you are too particular with your order
m hm, Like, I'll say, can hey, can you hold
this and add this? I'd like less of this and
more of that. And let's just say I just it's
an example off the top of my head. Let's say, hey,
(04:07):
can I get some extra mayonnaise on that? And then
I get the sandwich and it's nothing button maynaise. And
I know somebody in the back's like, really, oh oh
he doesn't want the burger the way it comes. Oh
I see, mister fancy mister I need extra mayonnaise. Oh well,
here you go, mister, I need extra mayonnaise. Have all
(04:29):
the mayonnaise in the world. How about sport? And then
you open it up and it's just nothing butt mayonnaise. Yeah,
mocked by condiments. And here's the thing about that, anytime
this happens to me, I laugh, and I think I
would do the same thing.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Then I roll down the window and I shake off
the extra maynaise and I get it down to a
reasonable level and I go too shakes. Texts are coming
in talking about this guy who arrested for putting super
glue in a coworker's coca cola and it had a
chemical smell to it.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Really, that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
That's what happened. Then somebody texted in. My question is
why would she continue to drink that coke if it
smelled like a chemical.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Well, she obviously didn't.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
She took a sip and she smelled it, and she
tasted it and then stopped, then stopped.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah, that's my understanding. Yeah right, yeah. Have you ever
tasted something and you say this tastes off and then
you keep drinking it? Have you ever done that?
Speaker 4 (05:31):
I've taken a second sip just to be like, okay,
maybe I had like a leftover or something in my
mouth from whatever I was eating, you know, And I'm like, okay,
well let's just double check.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
And then if the second sip is bad, no, I'm done.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Okay, So and then you.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Got to have your control sip and then your experimental sip.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Nikki always uses the scientific method when drinking beverages. That's
how she enjoys her beverages, and she drinks them out
of a beaker. For some reason, it's all very strange.
I'm not going to identify the fast food place that
I went through a drive through over the weekend and
I got. I asked for a coke and what I
got was not a coke. It was a coke with
(06:12):
something like I don't know, cherry or orange or something
mixed in with it, and don't I don't know what
it was, but I went ahead and finish it off.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Was it good?
Speaker 6 (06:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I was sor right?
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Oh okay, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
The Jack and Nicki Show one two WVAQ.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
This is the part of the show where we poke
around in the personal life of one of Nicky's friends,
a man who was foolish enough to confide in Niki
about what is going on in his life, and now
it will be blabbed all over the radio and studio lines,
of course, open for your thoughts and analysis as well.
(06:52):
Let's toss the numbers out here, because I think you're
probably gonna want to get involved in this. Eight eight
eight seven seven seven sixty six forty. You can call us.
She can text us at that number. You can also
text us at three five, six, five to one. Nikki,
what is going on with this man?
Speaker 4 (07:07):
He's getting a divorce and it's very sad. They've been
married for I don't let's say, like four or five years.
I honestly, I don't remember how long they were married for.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Okay, we're off to a good start. Is that ballpark?
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Though?
Speaker 2 (07:20):
You think? That's probably somewhere years?
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Not a long time, not too long, okay, But they
were together for a long time and moved across the
country together and everything. So he messaged me and he
was like, Hey, getting a divorce this is And now,
like a few weeks later, he's like, what if I
got on a dating app?
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Is it too soon?
Speaker 4 (07:44):
And I'm like, well, I don't know, are you ready?
Like what are you looking for?
Speaker 6 (07:49):
And as we're talking, he was like, well, is every
woman gonna run when I say that we're still going
through the divorce, it's not finalized, and she's still living
here for another month.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
And I that was action.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
I was like, Oh, that's some baggage, buddy, Yeah, that's
some baggage.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
All right.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Yeah, So he's I've I'm never been in this position.
You know, my sister's situation completely different than his. So
I'm like, I don't know, Like, I don't know what
to tell you.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
So I'm honest I told him. Honestly, I was like,
it just depends on you personally.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
But at the same time, like, yeah, like, what do
you do when you get on the dating apps and
you're still not officially divorced and she's still living there
for another month?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
And I think that's fairly common, you think, I think so? Yeah. Now,
I don't know how calmon it is for the soon
to be ex to still be living in the house
with you, but it's my understanding that a lot of
people are on these apps while they're still in the
process of getting a divorce.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Right, just separating works either, Like the timeline I guess
is complicated.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah, so instead of waiting however long it takes to
get divorced, and like, look it's been filed, we're obviously
going our separate ways. I'll go ahead and hop on
here even though I'm technically still married. I'm sure the
people that I have one night stands with that I
meet on this dating app won't care if I'm still
technically married, right right, Okay, sure, Well that's what women
(09:23):
would say. Do you have any idea why they split
up just out of curiosity?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
He gave no, not really, He wants to tell me
the story in person. He doesn't want to do it
via DMS or phone call or anything.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
He wants to make a lot of uninterrupted eye contact
with you while he's telling you the story.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Probably sure, we are.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Both of us are very like, like I'm a huggy person,
Like you're a huggy person.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You know, like I think is the word you're looking for.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
All of us are like very like huggy, hands on people.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
So like when it comes to like deep conversations, there's
like handholding and stuff, it gets awkward.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
It's like an episode of Drew Barrymore Show. Right, guy
sitting the floor facing each other on your knees, crying,
holding hands.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Yes, that's exactly how it goes with in a restaurant
beside the table.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Yeah okay, eight eight eight.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Seven seven, seven sixty six forty six at that number
or three five sixty five to one. What do you
make of this? This guy wants to go ahead and
hop on the app start dating. He's getting a divorced
but his soon to be ex still in the house
with him, they're still living together. Yeah, okay, So how
(10:30):
do you think that plays as somebody who maybe is
in this world. I mean, you and I are not.
So this is where we need help from somebody who's
actually out dating. How would that play if you're a
woman and you see a guy on there? Would that
be a deterrent to you? Would be the question? It's
Jack and Nicki with the exciting conclusion now of Nicki
(10:52):
blabs about our friend's personal life, this man who made
the mistake of confiding and Nikki, he is getting a divorce.
He and his wife have split. The papers are being filed,
filed and sorted out. Yeah, she is moving out, but
she hasn't moved out yet, and he ye, she's still
(11:13):
there for another month, okay, and he wants to go
ahead and start dating now, So one more month until
she moves.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Out at minimum?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Okay? Can he not just wait a few weeks for
her to move out before he hits the dating apps?
I mean, is there a big rush there? That's kind
of a simple solution to He was out.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Of town for like a month already, and so he
had that month and he was just like, why am
I waiting to you know, she's but now she's back
for a month and she's leaving again, and he's.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Feeling Randy, and he wants to get on the market.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
He okay, once to start his life.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
By the way, no kids, right, no kids, they don't
have any kids. No, So it's just the two of them,
are right. Clarifying questions. Text is coming in now. I'm
going to run down these texts. I'm just going to
go in order, and you can feel these as you wish. Okay,
let's begin with this text. He wants to meet with
you in person to talk to you because quote, dude's gay.
He wants to tell you in person.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Okay, that's fine too.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Do you think that's a possibility.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I mean, I don't know, okay, but.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
But you wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
No, but he says he's looking to date a woman,
So I don't know, Like, but I wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Maybe he's looking to date you. Maybe he's, like I hear,
Dave's very open minded. No, why don't you come over
to the house. Okay, all right, just tossing out there text.
This is definitely a problem, Okay, Okay, Yeah, I mean
I would think that.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Something on the dating apps before she's out of the house.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, And I would also assume that it's going to
make your attempts at dating much more difficult because it's
kind of maybe throw some cold water on it. When
people find out that your ex is still living at
the house with you. I'd say there's a certain percentage
of people who are probably going to go I don't
want to get involved in that, right.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Because there's a lot of emotional baggage there. Well, I mean,
and there's a lot of room for insecurities to seep
through with the ex still there and there and yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
But it's also a complication that can easily be avoided.
Let's say you're interested in this guy and then you
find out his ex is still living at the house
with him, and it's complicated. Why go through all that
when you can just go next and go to somebody
who doesn't have that going on, right, and it's just easier.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah, right, yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, Okay, let's see text. This is advice for your friend. Okay,
bring some new chicks home. Wife will move out faster.
You know. That's a that's interesting, right man. I mean
she's going to be more uncomfortable if he's bringing dates home, right,
(13:47):
and that probably would move things along. Okay, this is
a good text. Nothing says he's going to get a
date as soon as he signs up on an app.
Dating is not like the last time he was single.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Well, that's also true.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
That's true, especially for a guy because if you look
at the reaction that women get on dating apps versus
what men get. Yes, women are swarmed on dating apps. Yeah,
men are not. So he might go on there. Maybe
he should start now in the hopes that maybe he
can get a date by twenty twenty eight. You know,
just go ahead and get started now. She'll move out, remarry,
(14:23):
have five kids, and then someone will contact you. Have
it set yeah, right, right, Okay, let's see. Oh boy,
let's see text. This is a quote by the way
they've texted, can't go to my place. I have a
really toxic roommate that's moving out in about a month,
and until then I'm spending basically no time there. Otherwise
(14:45):
a big argument breaks out every single day.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Oh wow, So okay.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Saying kind of lie about it in a way.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
That's goin to be right and direct. I mean technically
at this point, yeah, she's a roommate.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Technically that's true. Yeah, yeah, leave out the part where
you were married to her for three or four years. Yeah,
just leave that part out. Okay, Well, Nikki, have you
learned anything here that will be helpful?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Do you know?
Speaker 2 (15:12):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
Well, I kind of like the whole set up the
profile now so that it's there and you're you know,
but a lot of people being like, hey, no, don't
do that bad idea.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Well, I mean again, he can set it up and
see where it goes, because I mean he it might
take a while, yeah, to get somebody to bite on that,
so you know you're working ahead.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Yeah, I get that.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
But also if he does get somebody to go out
with him, maybe bringing him over to the house and
parading him around X is a good way to get
her to move over there.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
To make sure she actually moves out in a month too,
like that she's not going.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
To drag it out.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Okay, yeah, that's.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So that might be a good insurance policy.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Well, let me just wrap it up with this. We
don't know what he wants to say to you, which
is why he wants to see you in, but let
us know if he ends up moving in with you
and Dave. Okay, I think we all want to know that.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
The Nerve Center of North central West Virginia, Jack Loger
and Nicki Drake on one O two wv AQ.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Jack and Nicky at the crime desk, and so.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Begins your life of crime.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I always had a yearning for the criminal life.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
I don't know I left the criminal life behind.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
O guess crime doesn't pay, crime doesn't pay. Oh, it's
all my fault.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
I drove them to a life from crime.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
This is a story that's shocking, at least to me,
because I am only just learning two things. Number One,
there are criminals in Canada. I didn't even know that
that was possible.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
I didn't neither.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Canadians all had a heart of gold, right, Yeah, and
they're all just pretty much like Mike Myers and John
Candy didn't know. Okay, So there's that. But also that
police will use something known as a bait car. Have
you heard of bait cars? Do you know about this
(17:10):
bait car? A bait cart lane? Well, apparently this is
a car that they put out as bait specifically to
catch car thiefs. And it's I guess, highly visible and
incredibly easy to steal, and they just wait on somebody
to steal it, and then the car will shut down
(17:33):
and the police pull up and arrestue.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Wow. Right, that's so interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I did not know that.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
I didn't either. Look, we're learning something. We're an educational program.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Well cartial credit, because I don't know if this is
something we do here in the United States, if we
are doing this in West Virginia, I don't know if
anybody in law enforcement even wants to admit to that, right,
because if you call our text in here and go,
oh yeah, we got bait cars ditting everywhere, that might
be a deterrent, might you know, be heads up to
(18:04):
would be thieves.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
But then maybe they don't become thieves anymore, maybe they
change up, you know, they.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
What fun is that? I mean, the only way they're
really going to learn is prison time, is it? Yeah?
You don't want to get in front of it, and
you have them straighten up, fly right before you get
a chance to incarcerated. All right. So we actually have
some audio here of this Canadian couple who stole a
(18:30):
bait car and then these dingleberries took this stolen car
through the drive through at McDonald's and as they were ordering,
the car shut down in the drive in the drive through,
and you hear one of these wizards go. It's a
bait car. Listen to this.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Two junior chickens and three mcdoubles.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
This is gangster.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
I just turned the button.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Listen right here. Oh yeah, we're in a big car.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Oh hey, we're in a bait cary.
Speaker 6 (19:08):
That yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Yeah, even the criminal sound polite? Right? Oh yeah they
we're in a bait car. Eh yeah, Okay, Well there
you go again. Studio lines are open as always Triple eight,
triple seven, sixty six forty you can call us. You
can Texas in Texas at three five sixty five to one.
Did you guys know about bait cars? Am I really
coming in late on? This? Is this something that everybody's right?
(19:33):
Was this widely known? It is a good idea.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
Is it just because we're not in the car thieving
community that could be part of this?
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Like why we don't know about it?
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Well, you know, we were talking about entrap meant last
week on the show, and I think you could make
the case that this would be entrap met But again,
if you're not prone to stealing a car, you can't
be trapped into stealing one, right right? I mean, like
if I went out into our parking lot right now,
and there's a car sitting out there with the windows
down and the key in it. I'm going to walk
right by it and get in my truck and leave.
I'm not in the business of stealing cars. I'm not
(20:06):
even looking for that. Sure yeah, so I can't be
trapped into something that I wouldn't do. Sure yeah, so
I think that would be the argument. But technically it
is entrapment.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, all right, maybe they leave the keys in it,
windows down and put in a lovely air freshener, you know,
just catch the scent as they're going by. Sure that
carsonol is great. Oh look it's unlocked. While just go
ahead and take it?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
All right?
Speaker 2 (20:29):
You tell us bait cars? Are we coming in late
on this? I posed the question are we coming in
late on the bait car thing? And the answer seems
to be yes, very late. We've only just learned of
bait cars that apparently police use to entrap some would
(20:50):
say would be car thieves. And these are cars that
you can easily steal and then they shut down on
their own, and then the police arrest you for stealing
the car. And I am shocked by how many texts
have come in here on this, including this one. I'm
a mechanic for the bait cars. It's all true. They
(21:12):
run for about five minutes after they get off the lot. Wow,
I did not know that. Is that here? Is that locally?
Is that like here in West Virginia? Mechanic? Let me know,
because I'm seeing a lot of text here from people
pointing out, Yeah, this is this is real. Been on
television a lot, you know, like on Cops and different
(21:34):
police officer TV shows and stuff.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Yeah, there's bait cars, bait bikes, bait bags, m yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Okay, Well I'm I don't have a problem with any
of it. Bait cars, bait bikes, baked bags, which I
guess would be like a purse or something that you
leave sitting out.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Yeah, I don't know, that's right, satchel.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
And if if somebody is prone to thievery, they're gonna
take it.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
And if you're not a thief, then you're not gonna
take it. Yes, somebody who is not a thief is
not going to steal anything, no matter how easy you
make it for them. Let's see text, it's all over.
I'm a spatial mechanic for them and specialize only having
cars run for a few minutes at a time.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Wow, that's so interesting.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, this is a very interesting That's a.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Very interesting line of work to find yourself in.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Isn't it.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
You know?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Yeah? I would. I would like to be at a
look at a cookout with this guy having a conversation
about what you do for a living. M Yeah. I
wire up cars so they only run for five minutes
of scumbags can steal them and get caught. That's a
fantastic job.
Speaker 4 (22:49):
Are you like an undercover spy? I wonder like how
you get in that line of work? Somebody like tracks
it down. I have an offer for you. You put
on these glasses and then all of a sudden, they
you know, self destruction.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
Here.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Here's where I feel like the biggest jackass in the world.
Somebody texted in here that not only is this a
common thing that everybody knows about, but also it's so common?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
How common is it?
Speaker 2 (23:18):
There was a TV show called Bait Car. How did
we miss this so far? I mean, for god, I
feel like the biggest.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Well, now you know what you'll be doing on YouTube today?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yes? I will. Normally around this time on the show,
we pause to make fun of drunk people or naked people,
or stupid people, or sometimes people who are drunk, naked
and stupid. Those are my favorites. But today we have
(23:53):
something different for you.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
TikTok.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
If you haven't heard of the TikTok, it's.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
The popping up on phones everywhere, TikTok, TikTok at TikTok.
Hast five hundred and million active uses.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
This is a TikTok trend going viral. Put that on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Yes, that's right. All part of our terrific program of inspiration.
We're gonna steer clear of the naked alcoholics and focus
on something that's a little more wholesome and family friendly.
It's audio of a woman who put her toddler on
the phone with a telemarketer. Okay, And I'm kind of
(24:34):
conflicted on my feelings to our telemarketers. They annoy me.
I don't care for it, but at the same time,
I feel sorry for the people doing that job because everybody.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Hates them, right, yeah, right, sure, tough gig it is.
It's tough gig.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
I mean, you're calling and you know that people hate you,
and they're they're gonna say terrible things to you, they're
going to curse you and hang up on you. It's
a lot like hosting a radio show. But this woman
found a way to screw with the telemarketer without screaming
profanities at them or doing anything terrible. What she did
(25:09):
was put her toddler on the phone with the telemarketer.
And we're going to come in on this conversation where
they're basically trying to close the deal on this Florida vacation. Yeah, okay,
And so the call begins with them kind of reaching
a deal, and then it ends when there's an incoming
call on the phone that distracts the kid. Okay, and
(25:33):
then the family erupts and laughter, people cheer, dog's bark.
Here it is a toddler on the phone with a telemarketer.
Speaker 5 (25:39):
And almost all resorts require a credit card. So do
you have a major credit or debit card to check
into the resort?
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Oh I am so sorry, love, I just sit in
hear that laugh apart. Do you have a major credit
or debit card to check into the resort?
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
Yes, okay, great, well you sulifil. I'm just going to
try you to a specialist. Please hold on a brief
moment and don't hang up. Okay, okay, God with the
Orlanta Center.
Speaker 4 (26:12):
How are you great?
Speaker 5 (26:15):
I'm your personal travel specialist. I'm gonna help you clean
your sevent vacation.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Hello, Hello, hello calling. Okay, this is the second time
I've heard this, so the first time I heard it,
I'm wondering how this telemarker, this woman, the first telemarketer,
(26:46):
is not picking up on the fact that this is
a child.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Right, Yeah, I think that was a bot.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Oh you think that's what it was.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
I think, because like they had to repeat yes twice.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
I'm sorry I didn't hear you went obviously it was
extremely clear.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Okay, Yeah, that's why I think.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Okay, that makes sense because I thought maybe she was thinking,
you know what, I know this as a kid, but
I don't care. I'm gonna go ahead and hand it
off to this next guy, and if it doesn't work out,
I'll blame him because I'll say no, I had him
on the hook. They agreed, he's the one who screwed up.
He should have closed the deal, not me.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Yeah, so that also could be it. Just you know,
it's a volume business.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
So if you got to yes, you got to push
it through that way, you're not getting in trouble on
your end.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
And maybe both things are true, and it's a very
paranoid and defensive bot. Maybe that's what it was
