Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It's time for your prank phone call. It's Brooke and
- 0:01Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the morning. And you know what's the least
- 0:04Speaker 1: fun word, in my opinion? Policy. Yeah, that's a boring word.
- 0:10Speaker 1: If I have to hear, excuse me, sir, it's our
- 0:13Speaker 1: policy that you don't take your shoes and pants off
- 0:16Speaker 1: in the restaurant. Well, that's kind of important. Annoying. Am
- 0:21Speaker 1: I right? So I think I speak for everyone when
- 0:23Speaker 1: I say we need new policies that are fun and different.
- 0:28Speaker 1: And I know one elementary school vice principal who's supportive
- 0:31Speaker 1: of that. And today he's calling a mom to tell
- 0:34Speaker 1: her about his brand new policy that's about to make
- 0:37Speaker 1: life a whole lot better. Not for her or for
- 0:41Speaker 1: her kid, but for the teachers, for sure. In your
- 0:43Speaker 1: phone tap right now.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Hello? Hello?
- 0:53Speaker 2: Hello?
- 0:53Speaker 1: Excuse me, who is this?
- 0:57Speaker 2: Hello? Hello?
- 1:03Speaker 1: Hello?
- 1:04Speaker 2: Yes?
- 1:05Speaker 1: Hi. Sorry, is this Carolyn's mom?
- 1:08Speaker 2: Yeah, who is this?
- 1:10Speaker 1: This is Vice Principal Andrews from * * * * * * Elementary. Woo!
- 1:16Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Sorry about that. I was just jamming.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Out for a bit. What can I help you with?
- 1:22Speaker 2: Is something wrong with my daughter? Oh, no, no.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Carolyn's fine. I'm just calling wondering why you're not responding
- 1:29Speaker 1: to my emails or why you haven't responded to the
- 1:32Speaker 1: invoices that I've sent out.
- 1:34Speaker 2: You say invoices? I'm confused about this. What are you
- 1:38Speaker 2: referring to? Okay.
- 1:40Speaker 1: You don't know? Well, look, now that I have you
- 1:43Speaker 1: on the phone, at least we could just do it
- 1:44Speaker 1: right here.
- 1:44Speaker 2: I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm sorry.
- 1:47Speaker 1: So Carolyn's racked up $ 436. 50 this quarter.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Whoa!
- 1:49Speaker 1: So that was due last week. What is this total from?
- 1:53Speaker 1: I mean, $ 430 is a lot, and I haven't.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Been aware of any charges. Correction, correction. It is $ 436. 50
- 1:59Speaker 2: that Carolyn has racked up in crosswalk toll fees. Oh!
- 2:01Speaker 1: So.
- 2:15Speaker 2: What do you mean crosswalk? I've never heard of that.
- 2:18Speaker 1: It's a new policy this year where every time a
- 2:20Speaker 1: student uses the school crosswalk, it's $ 1.
- 2:23Speaker 2: 50.
- 2:23Speaker 1: What? That's during non-peak hours. And then surge pricing happens
- 2:32Speaker 1: within five minutes of the bell. It looks like Carolyn
- 2:37Speaker 1: took advantage of that almost 40% of the time. So
- 2:40Speaker 1: that's why hers is a little bit higher than others.
- 2:43Speaker 2: You're talking about the crosswalk, like walking across the street.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Exactly. That's right.
- 2:48Speaker 2: That should be a free service for the children to
- 2:51Speaker 2: keep them safe crossing the street. I don't understand why
- 2:54Speaker 2: the children are being monitored.
- 2:56Speaker 1: Just to be clear, the children aren't paying. The parents are.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Are we paying the crossing guards? Is this paying the school?
- 3:02Speaker 2: I don't understand. You know what?
- 3:03Speaker 1: I can answer that for you. So a group of
- 3:05Speaker 1: teachers and administrators are trying to raise enough money in
- 3:09Speaker 1: order to get Doja Cat to come perform at the school.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Doja Cat?
- 3:14Speaker 1: It's pretty exciting.
- 3:15Speaker 2: You know this is a voluntary school, right? Like, this
- 3:17Speaker 2: is not.
- 3:18Speaker 1: I know that it's a private concert for the teachers
- 3:21Speaker 1: and the faculty. It's not for the kids.
- 3:22Speaker 2: For the teachers.
- 3:23Speaker 1: The good news is, if we don't raise the half
- 3:26Speaker 1: a million dollars... A half a million? That's what her
- 3:29Speaker 1: fee is. What? If we don't reach that mark, we'll
- 3:31Speaker 1: allocate the funds for Hennessy in the teacher's lounge.
- 3:35Speaker 2: No.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Which you probably understand is desperately needed.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Why would there be Hennessy in the teacher's... I don't...
- 3:41Speaker 2: This doesn't make any sense.
- 3:42Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Are you a teacher?
- 3:45Speaker 2: No, I am not a teacher.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Okay, then you have no authority to speak on what
- 3:48Speaker 1: teachers do and don't do. Because right now, I can
- 3:51Speaker 1: tell you 100%, we need Hennessy.
- 3:54Speaker 2: You don't need Hennessy, especially at school. This is actually absurd.
- 3:58Speaker 1: The way that you're saying it makes it sound like
- 4:00Speaker 1: we're doing something devious.
- 4:02Speaker 2: It sounds like something devious. It does. You are trying
- 4:06Speaker 2: to drink at school.
- 4:07Speaker 1: To be clear, the drinking would happen before school and
- 4:10Speaker 1: after only, not during.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Oh, that doesn't make a difference.
- 4:14Speaker 1: You're trying to spin this into a bad thing like
- 4:17Speaker 1: the PTA tried to do.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it is a bad thing. I think
- 4:21Speaker 2: the PTA should be involved. Okay.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Are you talking about the crosswalk fees or are you
- 4:25Speaker 1: talking about the alcohol in the teacher's lounge?
- 4:28Speaker 2: I am referring to all of it because none of
- 4:30Speaker 2: it feels safe and none of it feels like... A
- 4:33Speaker 2: private concert with Doja Cat? Like, that shouldn't even be
- 4:36Speaker 2: a thought.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Yeah, well, okay. Initially, we had SZA on the list.
- 4:40Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Okay.
- 4:42Speaker 1: She got a lot more expensive after her collab with Kendrick. Oh, okay.
- 4:46Speaker 1: You can see our predicament.
- 4:47Speaker 2: I don't. I don't see your predicament.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Well, I would hate to send you to collections court
- 4:52Speaker 1: over this. That would break my heart.
- 4:53Speaker 2: Collections? that but i'm also happy to fight any charge
- 4:57Speaker 2: y'all are trying to bring because none of this makes
- 4:59Speaker 2: sense and none of this is appropriate.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Yeah i recently had to send another mom there you
- 5:03Speaker 1: might know her her name's laura what yeah.
- 5:07Speaker 2: You sent laura that is my best friend you sent
- 5:09Speaker 2: my friend laura to collection and i have not heard
- 5:13Speaker 2: anything about this.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Right well she probably she probably didn't want to tell
- 5:17Speaker 1: you because it's all part of this prank phone call
- 5:19Speaker 1: we're doing and she didn't want to tip you off.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Wait, excuse me?
- 5:22Speaker 1: Yeah, because I actually don't work for the school. I
- 5:25Speaker 1: host a radio show, and my name is Jeff from
- 5:27Speaker 1: Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning, and we're doing a
- 5:29Speaker 1: phone tap on you.
- 5:30Speaker 2: Oh, my God. What?
- 5:33Speaker 1: It's a joke.
- 5:34Speaker 2: This is a freaking joke. Are you serious? Yeah.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Laura's the one who set you up for it.
- 5:41Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I'm just glad I
- 5:46Speaker 2: was not in public when this happened. Okay.
- 5:48Speaker 1: Yeah, because if you were, we would have charged you
- 5:51Speaker 1: a fee.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Oh, God.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Crooked Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
