  Speaker 1: It's almost time for your prank calls Brooke and Jeffrey
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: in the morning. And it's not like we don't have
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: a plan going into these. We usually do, yeah, or
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: at least our producer.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Does an idea of a plan.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a concept of some sort of plan brilliant. Now,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: and today we were calling a guy who's selling a
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: piece of Ikea furniture on Craigslist, okay, And our plan
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: was to intimidate him by saying, we work for Ikea
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: and you can't just go and sell our stuff whenever
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: you want to, okay. And then we were gonna call
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: him back later and say, actually, we changed our minds.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: You totally can sell it. And then we call again
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: and be like, actually, no, we're changing again. Our legal
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: team says, no, okay, it does feel like dealing with
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: a corporation too. Yeah, But we didn't know that he'd
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: gets so bothered the first time we brought it up,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: so had to go a little bit of a different route.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: You're gonna hear it in your phone tap.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Right now's phone taps on the twenties.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Hello, Hi, I'm calling about the Ikea side table you
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: put on Craigslist.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you got the right number of which am I speaking?
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I don't really feel like answering that question, but I
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: just saw it has a price here listed for fifty dollars.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: That's correct, sir?
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Is it not sold yet?
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: No? Not sold just yet?
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well I have a big problem with it.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: What's that?
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm calling from Ikea and you were trying to
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: sell our products. It's kind of a copyright issue.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Well, I bought it and so then it became mine
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: and so now I'm selling it. So that's just how
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: that works.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Actually, no, that's not how it works because your ad
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: says Ikea side table.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Which is accurate. I bought it from Ikea.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Well, if you would just put manufactured Swedish wink side
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: table on the ad and we wouldn't have had a
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: leg to stand on. But you put our company name
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: in it, and that's brand infringement.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Is this really happening right now? I'm selling a Ikea table,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: that is what it is.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Okay, for fifty bucks. There you go.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: You're coming after me.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: You set it again? So right listen. If I was you,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't even say it out loud because we could
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: ding you for that as well. Since you're not a
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: representative of the company.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Well, you're not me. I'm me. You can't stop me
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: no matter who you are. I'm gonna do what I'm
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: going to do because this is stupid. What are you
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: talking about?
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: It is stupid that you would put it up for
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: sale the way.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: That you did. You know what's stupid IKEA hiring guys
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: like you to go through Craigslist.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: You know what. I'm feeling kind of generous today and
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I'm going to help you out here. If you don't
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: want to, you can face the legal repercussions.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm definitely not your buddy, and this call is
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: wasting my time. So do whatever you're going to do.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: I'm going to keep this ad up and I'm going
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: to sell it under the IKE and A because that's
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: what it is.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: That's totally fine. Keep the ad up. I would just
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: wreck men. You change it to say side table, possibly
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: from a popular Swedish furniture manufacturer.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Su're not gonna do that, Bud.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: If you do, I'll reduce the fine on it. Yeah,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: what normally it'd be a ten thousand dollars yourself, I
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: do you much.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Not hear yourself? This is not how it works.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Well, you should be listening to me, because normally it's
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: a ten thousand dollars penalty for anyone who does what
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: you're doing. But I would bud generously. I would reduce
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: it to five grand since it's a first time in fraction.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Oh now, I get it. It's a scam. You're not
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: even from ike making sense.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: No, I absolutely am, sir, and I can prove it here.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: You are sure you are?
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I could prove it to you. Please do Okay, you
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: know how we have funny names for our furniture in
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the store. Ask me about any piece dining table, chair, automan, whatever.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I could tell you immediately the Swedish translation for it.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Nice. That's cool. I'm gonna hop on Ikia dot com
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: and have that same info in front of me.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Item.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Just try me fine wing back chair with a footstool. Nice. Try.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: We don't sell that.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, this is so dumb. How about coffee table?
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: You guys sell those at Ikea coffee tables.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I'm gonna need the dimensions though.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: It's a normal coffee table. I don't know the dimensions
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: of your coffee table. Okay. So I seem to make
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: a big deal out of all this and how Aikea
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: has a hold on everything.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: So are you saying half length of the sofa to
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: two thirds or fourteen to eighteen clearance in terms of
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: leg space underneath?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I don't care any table this is your idea? Okay?
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Well, I have a side table called the Fajalabo with
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: a glass top, and I could sell that to you
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: for fifty dollars.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: That's the table that I'm selling. This is clearly a skit.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Why are you trying to sell me the thing that
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to sell?
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'll throw five dollars off forty five bucks.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: You must think I'm as stupid as you are.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Well, your sister Stephanie said that you were the stupid one.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: It's not coming from me. Wait what Yeah, your sister

• 5:25
  Speaker 1: to sell a lot of your stuff. She wanted us
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: to mess with you about it.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I'm sitting here thinking like, why the hell is Ikea
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: calling you?
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Well, because the Swedes take a lot of pride in
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: their furniture, you're besmudging their good names.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: You're not wrong about that. I do know that.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Because I saw the photos that she sent us, and yeah,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: it doesn't look like it's in perfect condition.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Actually you saw it. But should I lower the price?
• 5:47
