- 0:49Speaker 1: talking about is Wortle. Yeah, oh, dude, not an app,
- 0:53Speaker 1: just a website. This is taking over the world. It's
- 0:55Speaker 1: the five letter once a day game that's taken North
- 0:58Speaker 1: America by storm. And that's why our own show's Wortle
- 1:02Speaker 1: junkie Brook Fox is about to call a dude named
- 1:05Speaker 1: Cameron who's hooked on it too. Oh he's a fellow wortlehead.
- 1:12Speaker 1: I'm working with a couple different names. Not is quite caught.
- 1:18Speaker 1: Apparently he got angry when his roommate told him the
- 1:21Speaker 1: secret word once. So it's time to get some payback
- 1:29Speaker 1: in your phone tap right now the twenties. Hi, this
- 1:37Speaker 1: is Cameron. Hi Cameron, this is Wanda from Corporate Human Resources. Hi,
- 1:43Speaker 1: how are you. I'm okay. I'm calling because we need
- 1:47Speaker 1: to talk about a complaint that came in about you recently.
- 1:51Speaker 1: What about me? Yeah, I assume you know what I'm
- 1:56Speaker 1: talking about. Wow, No, not at all. Well, one if
- 2:02Speaker 1: your co workers came forward and they let us know
- 2:05Speaker 1: that you've been spending a lot of time in the
- 2:08Speaker 1: office playing the game Wortle. What Yeah, it rangs some
- 2:14Speaker 1: alarm bells for us. This is a serious situation. So
- 2:19Speaker 1: you're saying that someone actually complained about me playing Wordle
- 2:23Speaker 1: at work. Yes, thank you for repeating what I just said. Yes,
- 2:26Speaker 1: that's absolutely absurd. I mean everybody's playing this game. Everybody. Yeah,
- 2:31Speaker 1: back in the eighties, everybody did cocaine. Okay, did that
- 2:34Speaker 1: make it? Okay? I know that's not the same thing
- 2:38Speaker 1: at all. This is just a game. Well, look, okay,
- 2:41Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying. And at first we didn't
- 2:43Speaker 1: know if this was a one time deal either, so
- 2:45Speaker 1: we actually hired someone to come in and monitor you
- 2:49Speaker 1: what you were monitoring me? That doesn't even make sense.
- 2:53Speaker 1: The allocation of funds for something like that is ridiculous.
- 2:56Speaker 1: Can you imagine how much funding we're losing by you
- 2:58Speaker 1: playing this word game every day? It's a lot. I
- 3:02Speaker 1: play for maybe five minutes. My god, actually yesterday was
- 3:06Speaker 1: seven minutes. You were having issues getting the word light
- 3:09Speaker 1: l ight? How do you even know that? Okay, So
- 3:13Speaker 1: I think we're at a point where we can both
- 3:14Speaker 1: agree that this is an addiction. It is not an addiction.
- 3:19Speaker 1: That's what an addict would say. Now we've done the research,
- 3:22Speaker 1: it is not an addiction. Okay, this is not an addiction.
- 3:26Speaker 1: We'll let the professionals deal with that part, because we've
- 3:28Speaker 1: done some research and we have found a group of
- 3:30Speaker 1: seniors twenty miles away also severely addicted to word games.
- 3:36Speaker 1: What are you? What are you talking about? Okay, Cameron,
- 3:40Speaker 1: we're here to help our employees. That's why we've gone
- 3:42Speaker 1: ahead and booked your room. You'll be there for two
- 3:45Speaker 1: weeks unpaid. Then they'll try to wean you off of it.
- 3:49Speaker 1: You cannot be serious. This is going way too far. Like,
- 3:53Speaker 1: you're not allowed to send me somewhere for a gaming
- 3:55Speaker 1: addiction that doesn't exist. Well, I mean, the alternative is
- 3:59Speaker 1: a thing I don't think you want. So I'm just
- 4:01Speaker 1: gonna let you know. Are you kidding? Are you telling
- 4:04Speaker 1: you're gonna fire me if I don't go to some
- 4:05Speaker 1: rehabilitation program for a game that everybody's playing around the
- 4:09Speaker 1: freaking country. Okay, well that's the assumption that you made.
- 4:12Speaker 1: I did not say that. Listen. We No, I'm not
- 4:15Speaker 1: gonna listen. You're treating me like some kind of meth
- 4:17Speaker 1: head or something like. No, they did just the game. Now.
- 4:21Speaker 1: I'm getting the sense that you're pushing back on this
- 4:23Speaker 1: right now. Pushing back, yes, because this sounds ridiculous. Do
- 4:28Speaker 1: you hear what you said that? Over and over again?
- 4:31Speaker 1: So we could come to some sort of agreement, like
- 4:34Speaker 1: what do you mean agreement? You know? Just between you
- 4:37Speaker 1: and are you firing me? No? Just between you and me.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Listen tomorrow, if I let you play when you first
- 4:43Speaker 1: come in, and you text me the word once you
- 4:45Speaker 1: get it, then I can share it with my friends
- 4:47Speaker 1: that I guess at first drive what you know? Like
- 4:51Speaker 1: that one slash six First you're trying to put me
- 4:53Speaker 1: into a facility, and now you're trying to blackmail me.
- 4:56Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell somebody that you're suggesting this. Well, I
- 5:00Speaker 1: think the first person you should tell is your roommate Johan.
- 5:02Speaker 1: He told us that you would never do it. How
- 5:05Speaker 1: do you know, Johan? What are you? Because my name's
- 5:09Speaker 1: Brooke from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning,
- 5:11Speaker 1: and this is a phone tap. We're pranking you, man?
- 5:16Speaker 1: What deep breath, deep breath? What are you going on
- 5:19Speaker 1: right now? You're not I'm not corporate. Hr Johann emailed us.
- 5:24Speaker 1: He said, but he shared the word with you one
- 5:26Speaker 1: time and you freaked out. Oh my god, I thought
- 5:30Speaker 1: I was going to lose my right now. Hey, I
- 5:33Speaker 1: play word all two and I gotta say worth it. Actually,
- 5:37Speaker 1: it's not worth it. If I was gonna lose my
- 5:40Speaker 1: job for this, it's not worth playing. But seriously, what
- 5:43Speaker 1: is the word of the day today? No, I'm not
- 5:46Speaker 1: gonna tell you. That's checking wake up every morning with
- 5:50Speaker 1: phone taps weekday mornings on the twenties Brooke and Jeffrey
