Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: How many times a week do you turn on the
- 0:01Speaker 1: news and they have a report saying, Hey, this car
- 0:05Speaker 1: has a big recall on it. Be careful, make sure
- 0:08Speaker 1: to contact your local dealership.
- 0:10Speaker 2: I've actually had to take my car in for that,
- 0:11Speaker 2: like it was an airbag thing years.
- 0:14Speaker 3: Ago, my power spread.
- 0:15Speaker 1: It happens a lot. And how many times does it
- 0:18Speaker 1: have to do with a faulty glove compartment? None until now,
- 0:24Speaker 1: because Jose poses as a supervisor at a car dealership
- 0:28Speaker 1: and he calls a guy to tell him there's been
- 0:30Speaker 1: some issues lately with his car's glove box and if
- 0:34Speaker 1: it doesn't get fixed soon, bad stuff is gonna happen.
- 0:38Speaker 1: I know it sounds like a great phone tap idea.
- 0:41Speaker 3: I'm really curious where this is going to.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Go, or maybe it's super lame.
- 0:44Speaker 3: Let's just listen.
- 0:45Speaker 1: It's your phone tap right now.
- 0:47Speaker 2: Another on the twenties.
- 0:52Speaker 4: Hello, Hey, this is rod phantasm from the dealership as Charles.
- 0:58Speaker 3: It is fun.
- 0:59Speaker 4: Hey, Charles, how's it going? I'm just following up in
- 1:02Speaker 4: our notes it says you picked up one of our
- 1:04Speaker 4: newer R models a couple of weeks ago. How's that
- 1:06Speaker 4: been for you?
- 1:09Speaker 3: So far, so good? No, complaints is a nice ride?
- 1:12Speaker 4: Okay, all right, so it hasn't caught on.
- 1:13Speaker 3: Fire yet, No, it has it?
- 1:19Speaker 4: Okay, No, No, I'm just kidding. I mean kind of.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Okay, what do you mean kind of you get you
- 1:27Speaker 2: can't just say kind of and then not say anything.
- 1:29Speaker 3: What do you mean kind of? No?
- 1:30Speaker 4: I just mean, like, you know, we technically did just
- 1:33Speaker 4: have a recall, and I have to tell you that
- 1:36Speaker 4: apparently twelve percent of the cars in your model have
- 1:38Speaker 4: a defect.
- 1:41Speaker 2: Okay, continue, please you keep sorry.
- 1:44Speaker 4: I apologize. It's it's not a big deal. The glove
- 1:46Speaker 4: compartment just doesn't lock all the way like it's like
- 1:49Speaker 4: kind of jiggles, like you know that's does mean jiggling
- 1:53Speaker 4: on my desk because.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I got the reference.
- 1:59Speaker 4: You you know what a jiggle sounds like. Okay, just
- 2:01Speaker 4: it'll jiggle a little and it may pop open.
- 2:04Speaker 2: Okay, Well what you said it before?
- 2:07Speaker 3: I thought it was gonna be serious.
- 2:08Speaker 4: I mean, look, if you're okay with a possibly jiggly
- 2:11Speaker 4: glove compartment, then you're okay with releasing us from all liability. Correct.
- 2:15Speaker 4: By the way, I am recording this phone call.
- 2:18Speaker 2: If you're asking for me to release liability on the
- 2:21Speaker 2: shaky glove compartment. That's fine, I have zero concerns about that.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Okay, great, And oh the other part And by the way,
- 2:30Speaker 4: I'm not recording this, but thirty five people have died
- 2:34Speaker 4: from this car model's glove compartment catching on fire. Wait
- 2:38Speaker 4: what Yeah, like huge explosions. You ever seen those gender
- 2:42Speaker 4: reveals gone wrong on the news?
- 2:44Speaker 3: Wait?
- 2:44Speaker 4: Imagine that? But with car parts?
- 2:46Speaker 3: Are you kidding me? Right now?
- 2:48Speaker 4: I'm just glad that we're not liable if something happens
- 2:51Speaker 4: with you.
- 2:51Speaker 2: No, I released you from liability over a shaky, jiggly,
- 2:56Speaker 2: partially noisy glove compartment.
- 2:58Speaker 4: Not about well, the part that I didn't get to
- 3:02Speaker 4: was that it jiggles because the engineers accidentally put a
- 3:05Speaker 4: bunch of electrical wires through it. So if you close
- 3:08Speaker 4: it a little bit too hard, it literally explodes.
- 3:12Speaker 2: I don't like your matter of fact home about potentially
- 3:16Speaker 2: me dying in this car that I just purchased.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Well, to be fair, I did ask you if your
- 3:20Speaker 4: car is caught on fire yet, do you remember that
- 3:22Speaker 4: the start of the conversation is one of the first
- 3:24Speaker 4: things I remember.
- 3:26Speaker 3: Dude, I thought you were joking.
- 3:28Speaker 2: So if this, yeah, oh, if this is real, I
- 3:32Speaker 2: need for you to fix this asap.
- 3:34Speaker 4: Absolutely, that's just going to be a nine hundred dollars
- 3:36Speaker 4: charge and then we will fix it. I'll take good care.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Of nine hundred dollars.
- 3:40Speaker 4: Who well, remember you you just released us from liability, sir,
- 3:44Speaker 4: so that means you void the warranty. And this is
- 3:46Speaker 4: an out of pocket all.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Right, what you're doing right now is a scam.
- 3:51Speaker 2: First you're recording, then you're not recording, and now magically,
- 3:56Speaker 2: out of thin air, I have to pay a nine
- 3:57Speaker 2: hundred dollars charge for you to a vehicle that you
- 4:01Speaker 2: sold to me that has a debate.
- 4:02Speaker 4: Well, technically the vehicle is great, it's just the glove
- 4:05Speaker 4: compartment that's deadly.
- 4:07Speaker 2: You just told me not even twenty seconds ago, that
- 4:10Speaker 2: this glove compartment could explode.
- 4:12Speaker 4: I know you're upset. I am more concerned about your
- 4:15Speaker 4: safety than anything else here. Why don't you just be
- 4:19Speaker 4: very careful. Don't touch the glove compartment in any way,
- 4:22Speaker 4: don't even.
- 4:22Speaker 3: Look at it.
- 4:24Speaker 4: Just avoid all the speed bumps. We did have a
- 4:26Speaker 4: couple of incidences where drivers were maimed in a school zone.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Hey, hey, it's rod right, how about that.
- 4:31Speaker 4: You, Rod, phantasm.
- 4:32Speaker 2: How about you take this falsey glove compartment and stick
- 4:35Speaker 2: it up your and let it explode there.
- 4:38Speaker 4: I've actually done something similar to this in Thailand.
- 4:40Speaker 3: I'm sure you have.
- 4:41Speaker 2: That's a why I thought it was right up your alley.
- 4:43Speaker 2: So first off, go yourself. Second off, get your supervisor
- 4:47Speaker 2: on the phone.
- 4:48Speaker 3: This is this is unacceptable.
- 4:50Speaker 4: Look I would put my supervisor on the phone, but
- 4:53Speaker 4: he was actually in charge.
- 4:54Speaker 2: If you're about to say something really stupid, don't do it.
- 4:58Speaker 4: I'm not gonna say something stupid. I'm gonna give you
- 5:01Speaker 4: a fact.
- 5:01Speaker 3: Rod, So my.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Supervisor something that's about to piss me off one and
- 5:06Speaker 2: I already am it's not.
- 5:08Speaker 4: My supervisor was in charge of fixing the glove compartments
- 5:10Speaker 4: and now he's in the hospital because one of them
- 5:12Speaker 4: jiggled too hard and it blew up.
- 5:14Speaker 3: All right, what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna come up there. Honestly,
- 5:18Speaker 3: I'm not gonna drive the car.
- 5:19Speaker 4: No, I'm saying what you're gonna say. You're gonna regret this?
- 5:22Speaker 2: No, no, no, I'm not gonna regret anything.
- 5:25Speaker 3: What brother? What? What? What? Rod?
- 5:28Speaker 2: What could you possibly say to make anything better?
- 5:31Speaker 3: Right now?
- 5:32Speaker 4: My name is Jose Bolano's I work for Brick and
- 5:35Speaker 4: Jeffrey in the Morning.
- 5:36Speaker 2: I need more contact than that because I'm pretty boiling
- 5:39Speaker 2: right now.
- 5:39Speaker 4: No, okay, I'll give you more context. Look, this is
- 5:43Speaker 4: a prank phone call, and your sister Helene sent you
- 5:45Speaker 4: up what she wanted to play a joke on you.
- 5:48Speaker 4: She said, it's an awesome ride.
- 5:52Speaker 2: I'm so sorry you don't understand.
- 5:55Speaker 3: I am saking pretty much. I'm saking.
- 5:57Speaker 4: No, she said, you gave her a ride. You just
- 6:00Speaker 4: got your new car, you gave her ride. She absolutely
- 6:03Speaker 4: loves it, and she's proud of you.
- 6:04Speaker 3: Jealous.
