  Speaker 1: When are you dropping a perfume line? For real? I'm
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: trying to make one.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: I literally like got kind of scammed by this perfume studio,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Like they didn't show up that I guess they had
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: an emergency or something, and then I need to reschedule.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: But I was in Ireland for four months, so now
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I'm runing back.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: I've already paid for the class and now they're not
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: responding to my email, so it's giving I'm gonna have
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to just pull up on the studio.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Wait.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: So they didn't follow up with you, no, and they
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: told me they had a family emergency when I showed
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: up in person and I was like, hello, I'm trying
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: to make my dreams come true, right, and no one
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: was there and they didn't send me an email. So
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: then when I got to touch with them, they're like, oh,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: we had a family emergency, and I was like, okay,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I completely understand.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I got to go away for four.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Months, but I still want to take this class that
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: I fully already paid for, so you know, we're working
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: on it.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: There wasn't one member that could have emailed me.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: It feels very mom and poppish of like, I don't
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: think it's really a lot of people up be in there,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: the chemists and you still just you have paid for
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: this class. Oh yes, And how long ago is this?
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: This was like five six months ago?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, and you are the goddess of scams now,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: so I.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Know it's a scam.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: I think I got scammed because they're not responding to
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: the email. But that's okay. Because I already had address
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: of the business location, so you know, I can just
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: be out listen, you know what I mean? Oh, I
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: ain't nothing but somebody an.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Opportunity and bushes when somebody plays with me and I
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: have your address, like like, what are you doing? Like
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not saying I'm crazy, but I do
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: have your address in case my eye starts twitching right.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: And look, I'm not saying I'm crazy either. I'm just saying,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: you know, you got a bush in front of your house.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: I stand behind it and wait for you to come home,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: and I'm bush shaped. Actually I can get low, real low.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Now I have to ask you. Obviously we talked just
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit about me being scammed, but what's your
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: relationship with scams right now? Is anything come across your desk?
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Have you? Have you been scammed?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Hopefully not like I was with this perfume studio that
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I have to slide on, but you know, it can
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: literally be anything.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I feel like I'm always scammed into housing situations. I'm
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: sure you're scamming coming on or I'm getting scammed. I
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: see the pictures online. I do a walk through one now.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: One summer I got got Lacey like, and I needed
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: to move into this space.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Of course I waited to the last minute.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: So you know how you put yourself in that position
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: where you're like, I gotta move in two weeks.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: So you go, you go, do a.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Walk through, and you see some things aren't done and
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: this needs to be painting whatever. And the landlord's like,
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: you know, if you give me that deposit, all this
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: stuff will be taken care of when you move in
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: on day one. So you know me, I'm cool, great,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I'll see you in two weeks. We get to two weeks,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: not nary a thing has been painted, window panels, ain't
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: I'm talking this happened to me in Chicago. I'm talking
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: it wasn't even no lot. You know how you have
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: a door knob.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: You know what a door knob is, like, I'm familiar
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: with the knob, a knob of a door.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: You may have seen a knob or two on a door.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Place didn't have a door knob, like like the the hole.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: You could see through the other side where the other.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Sides, yes, and so ever, yeah, right right right, Well you.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Said window treatments and maybe painting. I was with you.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: I was on the ride I have my hands.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I was like, but when you say that, he was
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: gonna get you some door knobs.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: But that's because you know here, it is because we
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: all have an uncle.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: That's like, oh yeah, that like if you put your
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: if you put your knuckles on the ground, he could
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: have probably got all that stuff with a few men.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: You just feel essential, not an.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I would say the place was in worse condition than
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: when I went to visit it. No right, but see
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: the other least up to walk through. Now here's he
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: had a nob and then I think he took that nob.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: He was like, oh, that was just the stage. The
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: nod was a part of the stage was from his
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: house that he said, if I could.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Just wipe fisted off, like babe, why we got no
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: do bring it back it? You know what?
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: And now that I'm looking back, it probably was like
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: a handle versus a knob, like like one of these
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: things are not like the other.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: So I moved in. I had to stay in this
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: location for four months.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Now, I will say this because you can't scam me
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: for too long. I said, in this location, I gave
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: him a list of things. I said, the following list
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: of things needs to be done. In order for you
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: to receive another payment for me.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, cause now they got him on the hook. Now
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I got him on the hook.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: I said, I'm not paying you another dime until the
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: following things are done. And so he never actually took
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: care of the follower. He would try to take care
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: of him, but it was just it was like a
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: house of horrors. Like for example, one time, I said, hey,
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: you told me that my room would have a new
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: paint job.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Lacy.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: This happened to me. I said, you told me my
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: room would have a paint job. So I said, can
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: you get somebody to painting the room by the end
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: of the week. He said, I can start with that done.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: I got you.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I go to work.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: He sends his nephew over to paint the room. The
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: nephew came over. Now I would have been cool if
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: it was just your nephew, is he shirre nephew and
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: girlfriend came over. When I came back home, they were
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: still painting the room. There was one bucket of paint
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: and one brush, but they weren't painting, Lacy. They were
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: in my bed. They were drinking my wine. Now this
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: isn't and this will tell you what kind of year
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: it was, or when this happened. It was a pink
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: moscato out of my fridge. Okay, so think about when
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: you were drinking pink moscato thinking you were that girl.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: So not only were they in my bed not painting,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: they were painting in a proverbial sense. They were also
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: drinking my my pink muscatto.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: You know, I paid my good five ninety nine for that.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: So also, like, how do they think in that economy
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: and the girlies who buy pink moscato at that time,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: that they're not gonna notice that you just sipped on
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: the pink moscatto.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: We're gonna notice many now, mind you, I just moved in.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Wasn't even nothing in the fridge but the pink moscatto.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: So but I did get away with four months of
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: not paying rent, okay, because I said, until these things
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: are fixed, I'm not paying.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: So you scammed them back. I scammed them back.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: So I put up with the lions, attacks and bears,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: but I saved four months worth of rent and then
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: I moved into the next spot.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and sometimes you had to deal with some drifters
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: drinking wine in your bed. Everything it was one night,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: could sleep in my bed with some wine.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Maybe just one night.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Right, just one night? I want everybody. I'm always thinking
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: about people listening to this in their car. Everybody in
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: their car right now. Pull over and calculate four months
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: of rent and ask yourself, would you put up with
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the nephew painting with his girlfriend in your bed for
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: four months a rent for I think I think they
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: just ran over something real quick. I think I heard
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: rat mice, mice.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like the same. Yeah, it was yeah, girl o.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Rats like mice are cute in Disney movies. Laty, you're
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: you're far too classic for things like this. But have
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: you ever had a mouse in your house? No, girl,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: let me describe you, know you laughing? Let me describe Rich.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: I had a mouse or two, and I'm hoping that
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: you've gotten rid of them.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Well, you have about gotten rid of them.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: Me and Rich know the the mental turmoil of having
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: a mouse in your house, because it is a It
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: is a It is a symbol, if you will, that
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: you have no control of your life. I I truly
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: believe that, because you can clean up as much as
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: you want, is something wrong with the infrastructure When a
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: mouse comes in there. So it's it's it's psychologic warfare.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: When you're cleaning every day and you still see one.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: Oh there's a whole, I mean, and then you see
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: one of You're like, surely you're the only ones.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: They don't work in ones. They always rolling again, It's
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: just like when you see a roach there there.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: The family is already, niece's nephews, baby, they already here.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's terrifying.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Also, like I feel like I would not be able
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: to sleep if there's a rite in my house, because
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: I'm like, is gonna crawl over my face?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Is the rat gonna get in bed with me? And
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: you hear them like squeaking to night.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: This was years ago, in bed with his rat girlfriend.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: No living, just two rats smoking a cigarette with that gotta.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: I said, I have lost control of my life, and
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: of course I called my I called my dad being like, oh, Dad,
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: I've like moved into you know your parents are never
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: going to help.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I have moved into this like
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: horrible situation. He's like, well, what you doing moving anyway?
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: You ain't got no business moving?
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Why they always immediately blaming us. Can we get to
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: a solution. It's always the first question, well, why you
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: did this to get yourself in this situation?
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: How is that helping me get out of this situation?
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: I said, well, people move, is this before concept? We've
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: all moved at least once. So at that point, I
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: was sleeping at Ben's house, like these were the early
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: days of day. I was sleeping in his house like
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: my husband has been, you know, like five nights out
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: of a seven day week because I didn't want to
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: sleep in the in the house of horse.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Right, But I was scammed. You were, and so how
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: did you get out of this scam? Was it just
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: like at the four months mark, you were like, I
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: have somewhere else to live, or you were like, I'm
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: gonna marry Ben real quick, right, this is.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: When y'all marriage is critical to get out of hardship.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: I at the time, you know what I started doing
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: for real. I started going to yoga classes in my neighborhood,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: and I just started feeling like physically stronger and finding
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: my own voice. So one time I came back and
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: I told that landlord. I was like, I'm leaving at
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: the end of the month, and if you try to
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: like stop me, like I'm contacting my attorney, because I've
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: already been sitting my attorney information about this situation, so
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: you will hear from my attorney. Listee, I ain't got
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: no attorney. No, I've never had attorney money. You know
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying. But attorney style a little more fancy.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Lord, does you see what I'm saying?
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: And it's even better if you don't ask for no
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: information from them, because then they're like, oh, your attorney's.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Powerful enough just to find it on their own. Oh yeah,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I've done it. In the hospital, I had a nurse
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: who refused to give me my medication, and I was like,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: can I have your name?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: And I was like, actually, never mind, I know exactly
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: what your shift is and I can just send that
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: to my attorney. And so, since you're denying me healthcare,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: go ahead and put that in writing. If you refuse
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: to my doctor already has so. But yeah, we don't
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: need to speak anymore. But I literally like flexed on
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: her and was like, yeah, your name, actually, don't need it.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: I can find it. And then all of a sudden
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: she could get my medication. All of a sudden, she
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: can do it.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Like, you know, let me go find them two pills I'll.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Have a fake attorney and you have to act like
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: your fake attorney's super powerful, like so powerful that you
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: don't even ask for deep like no, they'll find you, baby.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: I love hitting them with like, well, you know what,
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna review that with the board.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I ain't got no.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Board, but let me say you hit somebody with like, well,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: I'm going to talk to the board and we're going
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: to make a decision on that. There's no boards and
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: the team ain't even that large either, But no, I mean.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: That's how like now, Like I talked to my accountant
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: this week, and that was our new strategy. Is like
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: people were asking me for money or something, just like
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: let me review it with my business team.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, they said no.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately they voted, The council has voted, the congregation has voted, and.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: My hands are tied scoff God, And I love that.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I think that's great advice.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Speaking of advice, we are doing a special episode for
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: you guys this week. We are doing listener letters. I
• 12:49

  Speaker 2: I know that's right, Mannie, so many says I went

• 14:20
  Speaker 2: We were actually very good friends until our mid twenties.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: I could just never trust her. She was always very
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: superficial and shallow, and she's absolutely stunningly beautiful. But I
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: am very glad we naturally dipped it apart.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: So I don't know why you.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Couldn't trust her, Mini, But it's given like she was

  Speaker 2: and then reliving their life through their daughter on the
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: cheer squad leg But she was so beautiful all this time.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: She was a bad but you can never kill Also
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: like many, I'm gonna clock up to here just for
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: one second, because she was like, yeah, we drifted apart.

• 15:18
  Speaker 2: and you got in the club.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: You ain't paid for a drinking right right.
• 15:22

  Speaker 2: used to be jealous of my friends who were still
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: close with this woman.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Her name is A Ruba. I'm saying her true name.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: As later I post a link to the news article
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: that tells the tea verified court details, et cetera, and
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: full names involved. So not you waited to tell this
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: was verified by the fans.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Now Also she a baddie named a Ruba. That's her
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: real name.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Can we get a picture of the stunningly beautiful mission beautiful?
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's that's that's a bat. It's not even
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: like a she like destination, you know.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: She she was named after some places.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: A lot of lot of.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Ruba used to fly my friends. I knew it was
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: gonna be some fluid out situations and paid.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Oh she's cute. She's cute, and you know what she
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: looks like. She got that skin that's real poorless so
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: like when you have a person like the skin is
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: just so smooth.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we're skin that smooth. You gotta do crime, honestly.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Right now, I'm on the rub beside man.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: You will see. I'm excited to hear about all these gentlemen.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Next to listen. Ruba was never lonely. Okay, she was
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: a battie.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: So Ruba used to fly my friends on private jets
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: to Miami, Las Vegas, and California, paid for private parties
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: at nightclubs with mm A fighters.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Drake. Of course, Drake is involved and even disgustingly partied
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: with Trump after UFC fight. So yeah, her battiness, it
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: didn't have no political affiliation. She said, you are money.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be there right right my eye. Okay, minnie,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm looking We sweating at you.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: So like, well, this is Minny saying she was jealous
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: because a Ruba was flying all them out to do this.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: She didn't say she oh, she wasn't getting flewed out. Okay, okay, I.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Say she was in the beginning, but then they naturally
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: drifted apart, and then she doesn't get fluid out no more.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: But she obviously still got all the internets, so she's
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: seeing that the flying out.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: It is still happening. She just not on board.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: And it sounds to me like if she got the
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: call to go see the fights and stuff, she would
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: have been on the flight.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: Now this don't even look like a Ruba Ja. This
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: is her like a little bit younger. So this is
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: a Ruba younger and now she's blonde.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: She also got one of those chameleon faces, like I
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: don't think I'll be able to point a Ruba out
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: in a lineup.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: So she should definitely be doing crime, because who is
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: this Latina battie. Yeah, she's been changing her face. She
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: went from kim Kate to Shakira. I don't even know her.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: So Minnie says, she bought one of my friends one
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: year old daughter a brand new Balenciaga purse delivered with
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: white Gloves service to the freaking baby's b day party,
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: and my friend who is the child's mother, felt embarrassed
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: because a Aruba didn't even show up to the party.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: It felt like she was rude and just showing off.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: So I mean, she couldn't make it to the function.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: But she's, yeah, that sounded that's some that's some hater energy. Mini.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I ain't gonna hold you.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: She she said, I can't make it, but I will
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: send the white glove service to give a one year
• 18:28

• 20:03
  Speaker 2: Aruba has always cared about her hair, her makeup, and
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: how people view her.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: In high school, Aruba was fired from every job I
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: knew her to have. I mean, it's high school.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: And also like she was a baddie. Like her job
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: was to be a battye hire. You got personality hires,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: you got a steatic hires. She's not supposed to actually
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: do employments.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: She got fired from the piece of spots to the
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: business goes up ten points when she's there, because we're like,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: this place must be good. How they trap this baddie
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: over here? What's her high school resume looking like?
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Now I'm not on a Ruba's side, but do not
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: judge me based.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: On my high school job performance.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: No, listen, I've been I have been fired from two positions.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: When the one was in college, and that was because
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: I took the bus to go to work and I
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: kept coming in like seven minutes late.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: So they got me. They got you. Now what was
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: that other one?
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: And that was at the Fairmount Hotel. The other one
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: actually started my acting career. I was working at a
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: restaurant on rodeo, and even though it was in a
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: nice area, it was owned privately, and so these people
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: did not know how to run a business.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Like the cooks would be leaving to go do math.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Next thing, I know, I gotta cook a krimbu lay
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: because it's this party is mad because there's a birthday
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: on a birthday. So I'm flaming band and they're seating
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: me tables and then the rich people get mad at
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: me and write a letter. They fired me, but nobody
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: had ever documented there that I was seven minutes late.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: So I got to file for unemployment.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: Oh I love that. So the cook was in the alley, Yeah,
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: he was do cooking math.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, lay a personal order, the shorter or of math
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: for himself, got it.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a small bat. Yeah. And then you had to
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: cook the crimble. Yeah, oh wow, I don't know. No
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: one should let me around fire.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: So when I got removed from that position, they had
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: to run me unemployment because they did have anything on records.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: So I got twelve thousand dollars and started my little
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: active career.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: You be talking down on people unemployment, then you get
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: a check, You're like, I see why people stay on.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: This was also a scam, because how you taxing me
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: from the unemployment that came from my taxes, and unemployment
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: likes to run this scam.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: This is just a tip for all of y'all out
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: there who've ever had to be on unemployment, especially during
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: these times. I know it's tough with the job market.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: If you're unemployment and you get off unemployment. A hustle
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: that unemployment likes to do is be like, oh, we
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: overpaid you on unemployment, so to run us money back.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: If you go to court physically present and fight it,
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: typically you'll get away like they'll they'll be.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Like, all right, well we tried, you know, like but
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: they do try it. They do try it.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: We'll see I collect the unemployment during the pandemic when everybody,
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: you know, I was laid off when everybody was laid
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: off there, so maybe they didn't have time to process
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: all those court.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Cases and stuff.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: But baby them COVID unemployment checks were like triple what
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: you made at your job.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: So you're like, oh, so we do we do this now?
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so we do have money, so we just constantly
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: telling us we don't have McDonald's money. It's like we broke,
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: we broke, and then I turned around and they giving
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: billions away to Argentina.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: Where we getetting billions at where do we get those broke?
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: So back to our baddy and her Yeah, manye so
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: so Manny is saying that Ruper got fired from Aldose
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Shoes because she was giving everyone her family discount. I'm
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: not yeah, I'm not mad at that. She was a
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: battye who was also making sure that before y'all got
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: on the PJ with her that y'all had on at
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: least a good dupe of a of a Jimmy Chow
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: from Aldough. You know, Aldo is like a Steve Madden.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: It's like, whatever the popular shoe is, they making it
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: for more affordable cost for the girlies. Now.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Many like to recap. She's stunningly gorgeous. She sends great
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: presents to the kids' birthday parties, getting besa and she's
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: giving family and friends discounts where she works.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: So so Ruper's feeling like a giver.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: She's flying people out on the people out she's like,
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: and then she's giving her friends discounts. Okay, after that,
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: she worked at a tanning salon and she was fired
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: there because she stole security camera equipment and tried to
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: sell it on eBay. Okay, now you got me, you
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: got me there. Now that now that is indeed a crime.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: We've jumped the shark, but I definitely have given so
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: many family was with you, was on your side, now
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: with you when you're right now? Why did you think
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: that you were going to leave up out of this
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: establishment with their cameras.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: To walk unscrewing that out of the wall.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: It is kind of funny to me, like that she
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: stole from the one spot where there probably wasn't a
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: security camera, which is where.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: They watched out a security footage.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: She was like, well, they don't have a camera of
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: me stealing in here, Like that's kind of because I'm.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: Thinking, like, don't you get in the nude for the
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: tanning bed. I think legally you can't have cameras in
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: certain places because of the nude.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: So maybe she was actually trying to stop creepers looking
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: at that footge.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: She might have been a hero.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: What if they had some secret cameras up in the
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: nude and she was like the one this is inappropriate
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: and too I'm gonna sell it on eBay.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Wow, I'm back on her side. Yeah, she kind of
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: convinced me.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: There many I know you listen to the show so many.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get you. You're still my favorite, You still
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: my favor five star review, You're still my fab But
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: right now I'm just I'm a ruber.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: Don't seem so bad? So bad? That's so bad.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: So when she tried to sell it on eBay, the
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: cops were the first and only bidders on eBay excellent
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: for the stolen security equipment. And I just want to say, guys,
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: with the Internet, we've made it all too easy for cops.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: It's not like they were really the crime soft rate
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: is already like what like forty percent. It's not like
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: they were actually working really hard. Now, y'all just getting
• 25:37

  Speaker 2: Ye god, mama locked up. So MANI says many, you
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: are very thorough.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: I will say this. If you're gonna hate, this is
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: how you hate, right, a professional hater. There are all
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: of these links that I got photos of this woman
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: I really pulled, and.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: Like many, but many, I'm impressed. I'm not familiar with
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: their game, but I'm impressed with your game. I'm into it,
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: So Manny says, I will now post a link to
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: news articles all about their most recent and harmful scam.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: They massively screwed innocent people out of homes to live
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: in and investments. It is still in court as I
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: type this, and I can't find any updates on their
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: newest trial. But I'm sure your team can do better
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: research than I can, so she MANI.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: Has pulled up three links for us.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Okay, so skinning now scamming the innocent, I'm not going
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: And housing is yes.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: And we talked about housing earlier with you, like housing
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: is such a necessity.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: You had to have the strange menage of wine. Yes,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: and radically like you had three roommates literally like well
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: it's free rent.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: So long story short. Aruba was a part of a
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: group of landlords. Landlords who owed investors one hundred and
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: forty four million dollars and filed for bankruptcy protection. We
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: are all from Ontario, and the Ontario Superior Court ordered
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: Aruba and her husband, ex actor Robbie Clark from the
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: Zach Files.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Not the Zach Files. Dimight I see that. I ain't
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: know about them files?
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: He said, Look the show, the show did not get
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: another season. I gotta find something to do.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: And two other landlords they were they all had to
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: relinquish control of their real estate empire following allegations of
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: misusing investor funds. The issue is that these investments were
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: meant for homes and struggling neighborhoods, not to go in
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: to the struggling neighborhoods. So now you're tricking the most vulnerable. Yeah,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Like Amber, this is when you said you had two
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: weeks to move two weeks and the landlord giving you
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: fake door knobs.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: That's exactly what they do.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: They're like, oh, you're desperate, let me, let me really
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: twist the knife there.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: You're like, dang, I was already down.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: And this is a scam that we don't approve of, Like, like, no,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: scam up. Why are you scamming people who need housing,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: who are obviously desperate for a human necessity?
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Oh? Man, Many, I'm back on your side. You ain't
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: right for this. Yeah, you should have led with this.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Many Many left with many lad with her petty shit.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like this bitch, you believe she got a
• 29:22

  Speaker 1: You're like, I can't white glove delivered. It interrupted the
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: whole party and she didn't even come. Oh you to

• 29:32
  Speaker 1: so you're giving our baby a blissi baby can't even walk,
• 29:35

• 29:36
  Speaker 3: And it's it's always like this too. It's like, y'all
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: are y'all are scamming and then really flexing in a
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: way that you could have You could have actually just
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: invested been quiet about it. The white Glove service was
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: a tale of something up with y'all, Like it's something
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: going on.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Do like the scamming rappers do.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: A lot of them start out in crime and gangs
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: selling crack rock, and then as soon as they got
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: enough money to invent us in their real career to
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: get out of the gate, get out of the game,
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: they pay one of their besties to go do a
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: bed for him. Get like limit some of that exposed

• 32:25
  Speaker 1: you gotta least, you gotta get you need it.
• 32:26

• 34:37
  Speaker 2: card fraud in the Chucky Cheese uniform.

• 35:13
  Speaker 2: So Chucky says, dear Lacy, I have a friend who
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: was trying to get work as an actress back in
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: the late nineties in New York City. She told me
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: about a scam she came up with that has she
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: has since laid to rest, so I can freely tell
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: the story without sucking up her bag. Okay, it's giving
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: me like are you are you like a messy gay?
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: It's given like you have a fainting couch in your
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: apartment in New York?
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Okay, you have a Chae lounge a because did you
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: know a nineties.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Actress who tells me lore a full head of hair
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: and a Chas lounge. So Chucky says she was a
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: part of an improv troop, which is also a scam.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: Look scam work for me, so I can you know.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's a scam. Sometimes it's not. Just depends on
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: who you ask. Where you have to get ten of
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: your friends to buy tickets or else you don't get
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: to perform that night. And if you don't know what
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: to bring, your show is go to New York City
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: and start looking around too much.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: A bringer will appear. That's all you have to do.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: It's like saying bloody Mary in the bathroom three times.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: Like you go to Times Square and you look at
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: too many buildings at at eye level, a bringer will
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: pop up.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: And be like, you're trying to go to a comedy
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: show tonight, right out here. It just happens. So her
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: career was going nowhere, says Chucky. That's how not east,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: not west.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: She was going nowhere and get fast sad.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: That's your friend, these first two that we've had our
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: given friend like it gives you imagine my friends. And
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: her career was going nowhere like she was building. She
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: was struggle, sir, she was aspiring. No you said, she
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: just correct when it comes of her career.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: Her ship was at rock box anyway, it's up, there's
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: the what is nowhere?
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: That's what happens when you deal with rats, right, Yes,
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: what happens we deal with rats.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: So when she would like she would pay to audition
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: for like a talent manager, which obviously is to yet
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: another scam that I've seen.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Oh oh, I haven't.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, more on that later, auditioning for a talent manager
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: and paying to do so.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, I've seen him with.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Like auditioning for commercial or any type of casting director
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: where you pay like forty bucks and they kind of
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: like tell you some advice that will probably fuck your
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: career for years, yeah, with no job prospects for you. Yeah,
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: but a manager is different. I haven't seen the paid
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: manager audition. So this manager said that they would have
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: to see her on stage. She thought she might have
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: finally had a chance to break into the business. She
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: invited the manager to improv show, even though she wasn't
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: sure where she was going to find ten people because
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: remembers got to bring ten people and she hadn't already
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: sold the tickets. So she's like, this is my big break.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: The manager's gonna come watch me. I do need to
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: go trick ten ten people in Times Square, But I
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: got a big opportunity I'm gonna say that depending on
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: how you look at this, this could be a scam
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: or not. I have had agents be like, hey, we
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: love your work, we also want to come see you
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: at a shove, and then after that I'm in some big,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: shiny building and they're signing me.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: You know, so this is this is a standard.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: But I don't know coming to an improv show that's
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: a little risky.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I mean they've they've definitely, that's where that's where I
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: got signed.
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: That's like it's an improv troop that you're like, we
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: rock together.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: Nobody here is gonna try to take the stage like because.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: Maybe I've just been in the bottom of the barrel
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: ass improv groups. But I would have I would have
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: invited somebody, and then somebody would have got up there
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: and tried to be in every single and I would
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: have been like, I got I gotta invite something.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: You can't tell anybody that invite somebody, no, no, no for you.
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: You know that energy inv you know that white dude
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: to be tagging you out of scenes and you're like, now,
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: this was the hairal, this was the hair Salion. What
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: are you Why are you tagging me out of this scene.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: What you're gonna say. We are under hair dryers at
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: the headline.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: And I'm under the hair dry at the hairsline, and
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, my baby is kicking. I hope you're
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: not pregnant. Now we're building here, They're like pregnant Asian lady,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: get out of seed? What three things? Wow?
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: Well your your your improv team, understand the assignment when
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: your managers came, because I would I couldn't.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Try to tell nobody it was coming because they would
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: have been like, I'm trying to sign because I didn't
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: want to do too much. I want too much.

  Speaker 2: to the theater so she can get the manager there.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: She paid to who she paid to come.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: So the idea came to her. While she was looking
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: at online dating websites. She stumbled across one called Yahoo
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Personals Woo Yahooooo Okay throw it back, which later became
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: match dot Com. Instead of looking for love, she used
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: the site to try to pack the improv theater with
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: as many people as possible. She sent out one hundred
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: messages to men her age range, asking them if they
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: were interested in going on a date. Fifty men replied yes,
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: so she asked if they could come to her improv
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: show and go for a drink afterwards.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Forty of them said yes. The night of the.
• 40:50

  Speaker 1: Was up here. I don't know, I don't what. I
• 42:45

• 42:52
  Speaker 1: don't think you're making I'm.

  Speaker 1: That's how you know you're really cook it.
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: So Remy says, hello, I'm new to your podcast, right,
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: Rimy said, I wanted to share with you a recent
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: attempt to scam on me which I have had a
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: hard time stopping them from calling my phone. A few
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: months back, I started getting multiple calls a day from
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: my phone company wanting to loan me money. So she
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: was getting multiple calls a day on her phone for
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: a company that wanted to loan her money. I've also
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: gotten these calls and a lot of voicemails that I've
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: had to block. Sometimes they'll try to mimic your area
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: code so that you'll pick up even though it's an
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: unknown number, because you might think it's someone from your
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: hometown and maybe switch phones or things like that.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: And they say, we want to give you some money, Yeah,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: to loan from us. Yeah, we got money for you.
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: So at the time, I was working for nineteen dollars
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: per hour, So I have no idea if this triggered
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: these people to start calling. But blocking and deleting numbers
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: didn't stop them. That's why I said, because they'll keep going.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: They just clone the number.
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: Then Wow, I got fired, and you needed that loan
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: and you was waiting by the phone.
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: So now the desperation you done got fired. Everybody's getting fired,
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: and I understand, so she said. Then the calls continue
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: to come non stop. Now they he doy know you
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: got fired.
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: They're watching the house. They said, she leaving for work,
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: no more.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she used to get she was out of here
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: by eight thirty and now and now that core parked and.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: Young and the ray that's unemployed behavior.
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: Ah, she's going through pints of ice cream. She's been
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: y see her bringing at rhymen.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: She had a twelve pay. Yeah, we got to keep
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: calling her. So the calls continue to come NonStop. I
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: called them and cuss them out, telling them to stop
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: calling me. The calls kept coming. I was really angry
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: after I got fired. We were just talking about anger.
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you can use it. So I was bound and
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: determined to find a way to stop the calls. I
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: had some time on my hands because of the unploy dropping,
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: the undropping, jobbing. She got on jobs, so she had
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: some free time. And she said this all happened during
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: the government shut down, so the do not Call registry
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: was not an option because the government has shut down,
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: which you know it's it likes to do that a
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: lot these days, which is why please pray for the
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: TSA agents, because when the DHS shuts down, the TSA
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: shuts down. And if you thought they was angry before,
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: they're not getting checked right now. Okay, oh my god,
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: let them. I let them touch my hair now.
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do whatever.
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: You take a pat down, you get the pad down there,
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: bro bro Ham, we can do it. My mom's god
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: bless you, God bless you. Y'all want my shoes off,
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: socks too. I'll give y'all whatever y'all want, because I
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: know you're going through it right now.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, guys, that's horrible, I know, so, Remy says.
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: My first tactic was to use something I encountered while
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: working in the wireless tech support space. When the agent
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: came on the line, I went to the bathroom and
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: flushed the toilet.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: I don't know what what heck is that is off putting? Right?
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: Does it mess up? There? The sound on the other end,
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: if they all they hear is like.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, or maybe they're just like O,
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: this person must be using the bathroom. I feel like
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: maybe using the bathroom would be more off put Yeah.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would cue up some like bubble that sounds
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: on YouTube, be like this will get them.
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: I need to drink, Like what why is it great? Like?
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: I think that would be more disturbing. It's like glasses
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: breaking in the bag, like hello, n.
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: So the calls kept coming the flesh didn't work. Also, like,
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: if you flush, you're basically saying you've done with whatever
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: you did, So now you're ready to go right, ready
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: to get right.
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: They're like, oh, wicked, pause while you're right, okay, flushing,
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: we heard the hand washed you never waiting for our
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: loan pitch. This is not how did your number get
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: on this call list?
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: They sold all of our information.
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: I sound like my daddy. Now what you getting called for?
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: What you get called?
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: Why are you calling you? Why do you want to
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: be called? It's like, can I not be the first
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: lighte of defense?
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: Can we not victim? Ba and my parents love to
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: do that. I called him with a problem, and they're like.
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: Let's look at you. Why were you there?
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: I don't call my mama with a microaggression or a
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: slight thing that happened.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: She's like microaggression. They used to burn crosses in our yards. Amber.
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: I'm just like, okay, this is why I can't call
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: you and tell you about no because these stories be crazy.
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: But somebody trying to touch my hair? Oh oh?

• 54:00
  Speaker 2: private family at the funeral, and and your grandmother just
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: took it each time.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: And at the funeral we lost one of the guns
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: and then we had to look for it in the cemetery.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: That's actually pulled for a real thing that happened in
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: my life.
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, mama, Mama ate that if they was at
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: the at I'm never gonna say who, but yeah, you know,
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: so back to so, they tried flush methods.
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: Flush me didn't get aggressively. Flushing didn't work. So really
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: since my next move was to call and pretend that
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: I didn't speak English, So now are continuing Elis, Yeah,
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: now you call him back and you know I'm you know,
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: I'm remy at some point, you're having fun. You're a
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: little boy.
• 54:43
  Speaker 3: You're bored and unemployed, so you're trying some new acting taxic.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: I love this for you.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: So the calls kept coming, even after the Melolow phone keeps.
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: Bringing, and they were saying, we are right there. We're
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: bilingual here, we're bi lingual. We got somebody doughter you day.
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: We speak money in every language, every language. Okay, white,
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: so organized your minds. I mean check please in Japanese.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: Let's keep going. We just need the money, did we.
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: Lacey just casually flex that she knows how to say
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: check please in Japanese.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: They would take it too long with the check, Lacy,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: I can tell you look at like. They mostly spoke Japanese.
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: So we had to know some transactional things, of course,
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: of course, but the calls kept coming, kept coming. So
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: Remy says, I went to a local shop here that
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: sells novelties and I got a fart machine.
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: Remy, you do it everything, but turning these people jobber.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: Why we're like, this is my new employment with these people.
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: They can't smell it. It's not a spray that would
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: sit them. I don't know how to do the hand thing.
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: Where to get the hand or hand under the arm,
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: under the arm. That was something that you are unemployed?
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: What you doing buying a fart machine? You can't afford
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: it right now? The machine and economy.
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: But thank you for keeping the fart machine business seed
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: like those businesses, and and you know, because support local business,
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: local business.
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: They did say.
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: It was local and also novelties in a poor financial
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: economy like those nobody's getting a whooped cushion when times
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: are hard.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: Rubber chickens.
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: She said, oh this, they won't know what to do
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: with this, like the hand buzzer. You're like, Remy, is
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: this the best use of our time right there?
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: Honestly, you're supporting local businesses. Bringy on on your side.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: So when the agent would pick up, I would put
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: my phone on speaker and start hitting the button on
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: my fart machine. This resulted in my call being blocked
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: when I called back for a while. It also took
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: the calls down to once a day, but once a
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: day usually in the.
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: Evening, they kept calling.
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: Now, Remy, I also want to say, I'm gonna clock
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: your age here a little bit, because you went to
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: a local business to buy a fart machine. When you
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: could have just got on your computer and YouTube part
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: sounds right, and then that would have been free at
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: free farts.
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: And she said authentic.
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: But you you support local businesses, so everyone gets there,
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: buy those part machines and support your local businesses. So
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: to wrap this up, Remy says, so my last move
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: on this to cancel the one caliday. Okay, now she's
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: down there down the way one caliday. But because the
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: calls are decreasing, when the agent would answer the phone,
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: I said, dude, where's my shit?
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, something new? And you know what, you didn't spend
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: money to say, dude, where's my shirit? You did, so
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you for that. Crickets, that's what Remy heard.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: Silence, and then the person would say excuse me, to
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: which I responded, I got your money, where's my shit? Silence,
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: And then lady, you have the wrong number.
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: Have a good night.
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: I think it's working. The calls are only coming every
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: few days now. Just wanted to share so you can
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: all have a good laugh. Thank you, Remy.
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: This is like the like the scenes at Home Alone
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: where he's like putting a movie on every single time
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: the robbers come.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Renny I appreciate your dedication to the bit. And
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: also I'm starting to see now that I think she
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: went to the novelty store because she she's unjobbed at
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: the moment, and that gave her politically correct.
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: The unjobbed job, the unbattied, the unbaddied. You know, we
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: had a rule. But she was a batty, Mini. I
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: hope you were a batty too. I think it were.
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: I think you just you got off the train a
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: little too soon and all the other batties are on
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: the private jets.
• 58:37
  Speaker 3: I find myself unbalenciaged at the time right now, but
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: I'm getting there BALI one day, Yes, yes.
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: So next we're going I need another fake name for
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: this person.
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: Who's another baddie rat out there. Okay, we did Mickey, Mickey.
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: We didn't do Mickey yet.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: Let's go with me. Let's go with Mickey. So Mickey says,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: my identity was used by a stranger inside and outside
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: of jail.
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: Now, now you ate when I'm in the pen, but
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: when I'm out, uh uh, I want my name back.
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: Now. I don't know if the stranger was using it
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: inside and then got free and was using it outside.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: We don't know yet if you were in the jail
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: and then and because like yeah, if you in jail,
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: we should all be able to do identity fry with
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: you because like you in jail.
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: You might have did something bad. This this is somebody
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: getting they licked back to use yourself secured enough.
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: There's certain crimes that I just feel like it wait
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: too long with jail time and you're not physically harming
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: people if you're if you're scamming up, Like some of
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: these sentences just don't match up the math, don't be
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: mapping for greater crimes. It all really kind of just
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: spends social economically what you have going on. Or they
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: want recidivism because private prisons want has in best, so
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: they want you to come back to jail. Of course,
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: I feel like when you leave jail, they'll be like
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: see you soon. I'm like, yeah, say that's what the Yes, BRB,
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: have a great summer, BRB side books.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: We're going to see you back next semester.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: No, we should want on people who have been incarcerated
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: so they get a transition back into the severer and
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: they get back into society.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: And not come back. Right.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 3: They said, now we're gonna put this ankle brace on
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: you and if you walk to your kitchen, were coming
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 3: to get.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: You, Were coming to get Jay. Okay, And you gotta
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: go check in with these people all the time.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: Don't miss it, and don't miss a call, make sure
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: your phone is charged, don't don't take a nap.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: So this person, Mickey says, I have a scam slash
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: identity theft story that still makes me say, there's no
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: way this is real, and I think it would be
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: great fit for the show. Okay, we got a picture,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: so Mickey says. After a car break in, my driver's
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: license was stolen. Months later, I discovered through USPS and
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: formed delivery that there was a scammed letter from a
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: local jail addressed to me saying my boyfriend in quotes,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 2: was being transferred to prison and that I needed to
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: come pick up his belongings. I did not have a
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: boyfriend jail, okay, So what in the love after or
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: during lock up is going on?
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: My boyfriend is in prison, not jail, okay, so this
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: can't be my man. I think I would know if
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: Bookie was in the clean. I think I would know
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: my boyfriend wasn't in jail. That we so it said
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: I did not know this person. May said I don't
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: know this person.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: The letter itself never arrived because the apartment number was
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: intentionally left off, but the scan showed me something I
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: was never.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: Meant to see, My favorite things to see. I self
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: led an investigation. That's cunty very, that just means you
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: being nosy.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: That self investigations a sophisticated way of saying, that's kind
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: of Babbage going through her man phone.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: I self led an investigation while he was in the
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: shower through his phone. We call that instincts, dear, and
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: I love that. It was just a self led investigation,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: self led and well, you know where myself was at
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: the helm.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I self led myself to the somebody else's lunch
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: in the workroom.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: That's what I did.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: So I self led this investigation where I realized an
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: incarcerated stranger had used my stolen ID while being booked,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: listed me as his girlfriend, and triggered multiple accounts tied
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: to my identity across jail systems and beyond law enforcement.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: Help was minimal. So at twenty five years old, I began,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: I became my own detective. I began documenting evidence. And
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: eventually forcing the situation open through legal action. Okay, Mickey,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: it's giving un jobbed.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: How did you have so much time? Now?
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: He wrote you down into his emergency contact just in case,
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: I said, what as she wrote me down fun jail house.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: He didn't go to a school house house.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: You and me, we got to see each other. That's bad, Like,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: is this romantic? Nancy Myers in? Is this a new movie?
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 3: I don't What would be the benefit of revealing whose
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: car you broke into, Like, like, why would you you
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: already stole from me?
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: Why are you letting me know where you currently are? Right,
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: that's dangerous unless you wanted me to find you. Yeah,
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: maybe this is a love connection, right because I mean,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: we don't know what she looked like in her ID photos.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: I broke in your car to flirt with you? Girl,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: You're looking good?
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: Okay, y'all think he was trying to escape go her
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: or be like, oh it was her, it was her,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: not me, or anything like that. I mean, there also
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: could be something the Faiyus Justin is brought up that
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: point of like maybe he was writing her name down
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: so much trying to set her up and be like.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: It wasn't me. It was my girlfriend. Let me out
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: of the prison.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: But just to but just to lead that trail that
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: I'm the one who stole from you and I'm going
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 3: to keep using your name. It's kind of crazy, but
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: across multiple jail systems, and you have to think about
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: how lazy law enforcement is and again how Thursday they
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 3: are for criminals to be in the beds.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, Andrew The New.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: Black was an inspirational piece for private prison owners. They
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: were like, wow, we could get even more women. They
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: gave him ideas, we need to get more women in
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: jail more, Oh my god, and here are new inventive
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: waves of them, but aways, we could have got them
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: in jail over a man. Half of the orangest New
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: Black stories when they were like reflecting, I did stop
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 2: watching after they did that Eric Gardner murder with I
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 2: just thought that was too far and I stopped watching
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: for that. All of the background stories basically all boiled
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: down to I'm in jail because of a.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: Man because of no literally, that's charged for this man.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: That's true.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 3: Man, that's the way at the house, and I was
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: at the house, and now that's true. Anytime you watch
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: like women who kill or something like that. Every woman's like, well,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 3: he was choking me, so I had to stay the time.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: You're like, I hear you, queen, Like I'm every episode,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 3: I'm on the woman's side. But it's it's psychoed to
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: me when people kind of return back to the scene
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: of the crime or leave that trail or go to
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 3: the funeral, like why like.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: You like it? This is a this is thrilling for you,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: Like you're sitting in the funeral in the back, like
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: he he that was the body out there. I did that, Like, wait,
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: why are you here? Why are you here? Sir? This
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: must be her cousin or something. Why would he write
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: her down that just.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: By attaching her name to several different prisons, Like when
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: you think about the prison industrial complex, like and the
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: due diligence that they do. If your name is popping
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: up in the system, these people might just be like, well,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: your name's in the system, So I guess we get
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like without any technicality, without
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: even looking into it, because why would they Why would that?
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: That doesn't benefit them? They need another slave in the prison. Yeah,
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: so I'm a little confused.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: You're right, let's see we gotta keep our thinking caps on,
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 3: y'all right here, I feel.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: Like that like bro podcast deep.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: So the result was a binding settlement requiring full deletion
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: of accounts, return of Mickeystriver's license, and a permanent no
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: contact order. But the journey from there was surreal and
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: exhaust sting and honestly wild. This is Mickey's words. Mickey
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: says the story isn't just about identity theft. It's about
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: how scammers exploit the gaps between systems, how something as
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: simple as usps and formed delivery can crack a case open,
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 2: and how a regular person ends up doing the investigative
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: work themselves because they got to be doing self led investigation.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: Most self a new term self lid. But I'm not
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: self employed. I'm self lit at the moment.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: I lead myself to places. I'm get a whoope cushion
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: for the fart sounds, and it's self lit.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: You give me.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 3: Some man is listening to this show right now. They're like,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna say it on my date tonight. When she
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 3: asked what do I do for work? Well, you know,
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 3: I'm kind of self lit right now. I'm from this
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: job to that job but it is a self led
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 3: even bosses, you know what I mean. I'm an independent thinker.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 3: I'm I'm in a self led possession.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: I'm leading myself. Who else would be leading you? A
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: mom let? Yeah no, no, no, no no, don't worry
• 1:07:03

• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: I was in Thailand and my passport got stolen. Oh
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: I know, I know, but I was also thinking, like,
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: this ain't gonna get that far. This is like a
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 3: black girl.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: It's a US passport, but it's a black girl, Like

  Speaker 2: who would be?
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: But so it's something gonna happen. But I mean the sun.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: But they would have to do their big one with
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 3: me because I was like very you know, I had
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 3: locks in my hair, Like you gotta get real, Like
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: it wouldn't just be a tan, it would be you know,
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: tan full lips. You gotta put locks in you gotta
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: really work to look how I looked at that passport.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: Am I going to be connected to somebody in a
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 3: jail in Thailand one day?
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: Potentially? How far? Now, this this happened about ten years ago,
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: how far can this passport have gone one movie about
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: the Thailand prison with the white ladies. Oh y'all know
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: this movie.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: It's an iconic one where it was like they was
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 2: two party white girls and one she was the Amber
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: of the or the always she and she had them
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: smuggling drugs.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: I didn't see palace. It's called breakdown.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: I said, yeah, you don't got to worry about nobody
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: contacting you from time. Okay, I get your passport because
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: them prisons is they're they're those are disappearing places.

• 1:09:49
  Speaker 3: But I remember, for for at least a couple of
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 3: months after, I was like, day, what's gonna happen? Like
• 1:09:54
