Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, let's get to your phone tap, and today we
- 0:01Speaker 1: call a woman whose apartment is about to undergo a
- 0:04Speaker 1: major reconstruction. Okay, that's why we have Jose pose as
- 0:08Speaker 1: the leasing manager to tell her, actually, the damage is
- 0:12Speaker 1: a lot worse than we originally thought of it. Yeah, so
- 0:15Speaker 1: it might be a little bit tougher to get in
- 0:17Speaker 1: and out of her apartment. But you know what, just
- 0:20Speaker 1: like Jose is in real life, he has a totally
- 0:23Speaker 1: practical solution and he knows it's gonna work for everyone
- 0:29Speaker 1: for sure. You'll hear in your phone tap right now.
- 0:32Speaker 2: It's on the twenties. Hello, Hey, this is Reggie from
- 0:41Speaker 2: the leasing office.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Is this Aaron? This is how can help you? Hi, erin?
- 0:46Speaker 2: I was just checking in. I don't know if you've
- 0:48Speaker 2: seen all the things that we posted around the building.
- 0:51Speaker 2: We've been putting a lot of flyers in your mailbox
- 0:53Speaker 2: two about the construction in the hallway. It's going to
- 0:55Speaker 2: be starting next week.
- 0:57Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, seen them?
- 0:58Speaker 2: Okay, good. Well, the construction guys were here earlier today
- 1:01Speaker 2: and they were doing some prep work, and it turns
- 1:04Speaker 2: out it's a lot worse than they thought. Okay, there's
- 1:09Speaker 2: a leak in the roof, and apparently that water kind
- 1:11Speaker 2: of got into the walls and all into the floors.
- 1:13Speaker 2: You know, everything is wood and there's just dry rot everywhere.
- 1:18Speaker 2: So we kind of need another way for you to
- 1:20Speaker 2: access your unit.
- 1:22Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I'm just trying to understand. So you're telling
- 1:25Speaker 3: me that I need to find another way to access
- 1:27Speaker 3: my unit because there's a lot of damage.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just way too dangerous, you know, with all
- 1:34Speaker 2: the repairs going on, and I mean the floors are
- 1:37Speaker 2: literally falling apart.
- 1:39Speaker 3: I can't go into my apartment. Is that what you're
- 1:41Speaker 3: telling me right now? I just want to be very clear.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Well, I have good news and bad news. Technically, you
- 1:46Speaker 2: are correct, we can't allow you in the unit, but
- 1:48Speaker 2: just not through the front door.
- 1:50Speaker 3: Well, then, how the hell am I going to get
- 1:52Speaker 3: into my apartment?
- 1:53Speaker 2: I thought of that, and we came up with a solution.
- 1:56Speaker 2: I went to Craigslist and I found an old defunct
- 1:59Speaker 2: airline that's selling off their emergency slides, you know, the
- 2:02Speaker 2: emergency exit slides.
- 2:03Speaker 3: Okay, so at.
- 2:04Speaker 2: Least there's a way for you to get down because
- 2:06Speaker 2: they're inflatable and they're twitch.
- 2:08Speaker 3: I am hearing that I have to use a disflatable.
- 2:12Speaker 3: What in flair? In oh inflatable? I'm sorry.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Imagine we'll attach the slide to your balcony window, because
- 2:20Speaker 2: thank goodness, you have a window, right and then you
- 2:22Speaker 2: just slide on down boom. You can park right there,
- 2:25Speaker 2: or imagine that, get off the slide right into your car.
- 2:27Speaker 3: I am just so frustrated right now that you are
- 2:30Speaker 3: asking me to go down a slide, which, by the way,
- 2:33Speaker 3: sounds very unsafe.
- 2:35Speaker 2: I wouldn't say unsafe. I mean we tested it with
- 2:38Speaker 2: a dog and he seemed super happy sliding all the
- 2:41Speaker 2: way down.
- 2:41Speaker 3: Stop, okay, stop, I don't know what you're telling me
- 2:44Speaker 3: at this point. None of this makes sense. And what
- 2:46Speaker 3: am I supposed to do? How am I supposed to
- 2:48Speaker 3: get into my apartment? How about that?
- 2:50Speaker 2: That's the best part. We ended up getting a cargo
- 2:53Speaker 2: net from a condemned trampoline park. It's really smart.
- 2:55Speaker 3: Insane, you're insane.
- 2:57Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that. I mean, you just climb up.
- 3:00Speaker 2: It's pretty safe unless you get stuck halfway up. What
- 3:03Speaker 2: we well, we we had to put an emergency whistle
- 3:05Speaker 2: up there in case you gets stuck. Because it is
- 3:07Speaker 2: no it is a little steep. It's the fourth floor.
- 3:11Speaker 3: I am not climbing up a ladder.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Well, it's not a ladder, it's a cargo net.
- 3:16Speaker 3: So that's not climbing up a cargo net. That's bad news.
- 3:18Speaker 3: I'm going home. I'm going to pack my s and
- 3:21Speaker 3: I'm going to leave. I'm candling my lease today.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Okay, well, at this point I should let you know
- 3:26Speaker 2: that you really can't access your apartment when you climb
- 3:29Speaker 2: up the net. You're gonna have to go into a
- 3:31Speaker 2: guy named Mike's apartment. It's down the hall from yours.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Okay, right now, I'm not going to Mike's apartment.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Do you like the monkey bars?
- 3:38Speaker 3: Shut up?
- 3:39Speaker 2: Because we have monkey bars for you. You can't touch the floor.
- 3:42Speaker 2: It's like a game of lava.
- 3:43Speaker 3: It just hired you. You sound like the biggest idiot
- 3:46Speaker 3: I have ever heard. How do you have a job?
- 3:49Speaker 2: You know what? Brooke and Jeffrey asked me that same
- 3:51Speaker 2: question every day. They're like, how do you work at
- 3:54Speaker 2: the radio station and just mess with people and be
- 3:57Speaker 2: silly all day? I don't know how I do it either. Yeah,
- 3:59Speaker 2: Like what I'm doing with you right now? This break
- 4:01Speaker 2: phone call? Your sister Delilah set you up.
- 4:04Speaker 3: How do you know, Delilah, because this is actually a
- 4:06Speaker 3: prank phone call.
- 4:08Speaker 2: My name's Lse from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey
- 4:10Speaker 2: in the Morning.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Oh my god, Oh my god.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Your sister told us that you've been complaining a bunch
- 4:19Speaker 2: lately because they have so much construction going on in
- 4:21Speaker 2: your building right now, so she knew you'd be ready
- 4:24Speaker 2: to blow.
- 4:25Speaker 3: Okay, So my apartment's okay, right, yes, well, okay, thank
- 4:29Speaker 3: god for now.
- 4:30Speaker 2: We still did put the slide in, just because it
- 4:32Speaker 2: sounds like a lot of fun, right.
- 4:34Speaker 3: You know, I'm good, I'm really good. Thank you.
- 4:37Speaker 2: All right, it's your dry rote.
- 4:41Speaker 3: Every morning was phone taps weekday mornings on the twenties,
- 4:44Speaker 3: Freaking Jeffrey in the Morning.
