Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It's broken Jeffrey in the morning. And you know what's
- 0:02Speaker 1: even bolder than dedicating an entire segment on a nationally
- 0:06Speaker 1: syndicated radio show to singing a parody song about tariffs.
- 0:10Speaker 1: What jeff It's doubling down and doing a prank phone
- 0:13Speaker 1: call about them, I know, which is why today I
- 0:17Speaker 1: call a woman who ordered a few items off the
- 0:19Speaker 1: Chinese shopping site Teamu, and I am determined to deliver
- 0:24Speaker 1: her the product she ordered at the discount price she
- 0:28Speaker 1: deserves us making it happen in your phone tap right now? Hello, Hi,
- 0:41Speaker 1: is this Dana Cale. Yeah, you don't know me, but
- 0:48Speaker 1: my name is Ernie and with Temu in the online marketplace.
- 0:54Speaker 1: What you bought a couple of items from us last
- 0:58Speaker 1: week and they haven't been delivered yet.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 1:05Speaker 1: Yeah, an off brand Stanley cup tumblr and a wireless
- 1:09Speaker 1: Bluetooth shower speaker.
- 1:12Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's right. Right.
- 1:14Speaker 1: I know there's a feature on the app to track
- 1:17Speaker 1: your package, but that hasn't really been working, so it's
- 1:21Speaker 1: easier for me to just call you directly and let
- 1:23Speaker 1: you know I'm here. I'm at the airport. I'm sorry, yeah,
- 1:28Speaker 1: and sorry. I would have gone last week, but it
- 1:31Speaker 1: was my kid's sixth birthday, and you know, now looking
- 1:34Speaker 1: back on it, I probably could have skipped that so
- 1:36Speaker 1: you could get your stuff here on time. So again
- 1:39Speaker 1: I apologize.
- 1:41Speaker 3: My bad team sent an actual person with my stuff
- 1:46Speaker 3: from China.
- 1:48Speaker 1: That's the only way to keep the prices affordable avoid
- 1:51Speaker 1: those pesky tariffs. So I just landed, but I am
- 1:55Speaker 1: a little bit worried about the pap downs because a
- 1:58Speaker 1: security checkpoint is coming up and they look too closely,
- 2:02Speaker 1: they could find that hidden merch.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Wait wait, wait, so what you're doing is it's illegal?
- 2:09Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, I probably should have declared it before
- 2:13Speaker 1: I boarded the plane. But since I did it, we're no,
- 2:17Speaker 1: we're kind of in a gray area now, and I'm
- 2:19Speaker 1: just I don't want to take any risks.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Well, you're taking a big rip.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Though I did try to sell it on the plane
- 2:24Speaker 1: after I drank out of it or sorry, I mean,
- 2:27Speaker 1: I mean tested.
- 2:27Speaker 2: It for safety.
- 2:30Speaker 3: What you drank out of my cup?
- 2:32Speaker 1: Only because I want to give it to you and
- 2:34Speaker 1: I need to make sure I look like a tourist.
- 2:36Speaker 3: I mean, but that's gross, Like I didn't order a
- 2:39Speaker 3: used Stanley cup.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Well, I mean, let's be honest, it's from Timu, so
- 2:44Speaker 1: other people have definitely drank out.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Of this stuff.
- 2:47Speaker 3: That is so gross.
- 2:48Speaker 1: I never heard that. I've heard a lot about Timu,
- 2:50Speaker 1: but I never heard that.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Oh it's disgusting.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Hold on a second, I'm about to do the wanding
- 2:55Speaker 1: portion of the checkpoints.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Who whoo oh.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Uh wait, don't that's weird? Okay, Well, thank you off, sir,
- 3:12Speaker 1: have a great day.
- 3:14Speaker 3: I'm so confused right now.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Great news. I just got through the security checkpoint and
- 3:19Speaker 1: now I am ready to do the exchange. What that means.
- 3:23Speaker 1: The thing is, I probably shouldn't leave the airport premises
- 3:27Speaker 1: because we know international laws, Like if I find out
- 3:30Speaker 1: someone from the Trade Commission is following me, I'm gonna
- 3:33Speaker 1: get twice as much prison time, and I do not
- 3:36Speaker 1: want to go back there.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Go back there.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Yeah, well you've been to prison produ Well yeah, I
- 3:43Speaker 3: mean you know, back when the selfie stick first came
- 3:45Speaker 3: out what I was caught with about thirty of them
- 3:48Speaker 3: on my person.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Oh that is a rough day for me.
- 3:52Speaker 3: Why are you doing this?
- 3:53Speaker 1: So yeah, here's what we're gonna do to make sure
- 3:55Speaker 1: no more bad stuff happens to me. I'm going to
- 3:58Speaker 1: take your products and hide them inside of a black
- 4:00Speaker 1: bag in the second garbage can in front of Terminal C.
- 4:05Speaker 3: No.
- 4:07Speaker 1: No, I cannot go to the airport and remove this mystery.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Black bag from the garbage and then lead the airport.
- 4:14Speaker 1: No, you can't just swing by later, because apparently they
- 4:16Speaker 1: don't empty the garbages until tomorrow morning, and you'll find
- 4:19Speaker 1: your stuff there again, second garbage can. No, no, no, no,
- 4:23Speaker 1: just stop right there. I'm not doing that, Okay, maybe
- 4:26Speaker 1: well if you won't, then maybe we could at least
- 4:28Speaker 1: get your friend Joe to come swing by and pick
- 4:30Speaker 1: him up, because he said that you were complaining about
- 4:32Speaker 1: the Timu products that never showed up, so he thought
- 4:35Speaker 1: we could use that as a way to prank you
- 4:38Speaker 1: on the radio.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Right now.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Why because I'm not actually from TIMU.
- 4:44Speaker 2: My name is Jeff from the radio show Brook and
- 4:45Speaker 2: Jeffrey in the morning, we're doing a phone tap on you.
- 4:49Speaker 3: Oh sorry, Joe, set you up. I really want it.
- 4:57Speaker 3: I thought TIMU.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Sets the boddy over on an airplane, and you do
- 5:03Speaker 2: not want to know where I had to hide that
- 5:05Speaker 2: bluetooth speaker, so definitely sanitize when it arrives. I mean,
- 5:12Speaker 2: now I'm gonna sanitize no matter where it came from.
- 5:15Speaker 1: I mean, it's TIMU.
- 5:16Speaker 2: It's probably safe to do it anyway, so good Yeah,
- 5:18Speaker 2: I think so. The wake up every morning was fook
- 5:23Speaker 2: tabs weekday mornings on the twenties, Brooke and Jeffrey in
- 5:26Speaker 2: the morning
