- 0:55on the show, or you may have said something to him like, oh,
- 0:57I'd love to come on the show. But so you are the booking
- 1:00producer for the Steve Wilco Show. Yep, who used to be the well
- 1:06it used to be a Chicago p D YEP detective detective and then they hired
- 1:10him to be the head of security for Ye Jerry and then he's fun off
- 1:17and got his own show. Yeah so and right now it's out of Stanford.
- 1:21Yeah it is. Springer haded moving to Stanford too, didn't he.
- 1:23Yeah they had like yeah yeah yeah, and he had like Judge Jerry.
- 1:27There did Judge Jerry. So tell me a little bit about your background.
- 1:34Uh, way went to school and how'd you got into all this? And
- 1:38you had mentioned a show before, yes, that you worked for so yeah.
- 1:42So I studied communications in college, concentration on journalism. I thought I
- 1:47wanted to be in the news, you know, that was like my passion
- 1:49kind of runs in my blood. Like my dad works for NBC New York,
- 1:53have family members that worked there. So I was always interested, you
- 1:57know, in the news media industry. So when I was in college,
- 2:02I was playing softball. After my second year, I got shoulder surgery,
- 2:07ended up quitting, and I was like, all right, I'm gonna dive
- 2:10in my career. So I ended up getting a job at Inside Audition while
- 2:15I was still like getting my diploma and worked for them for about two years.
- 2:20That was the news. And then you were in front of the camera.
- 2:23Nope, no, no, no, no, definitely in the back
- 2:28definitely, I know. But you know, I don't want to be on
- 2:31camera. I now I am right now, but no, I don't want
- 2:37to be in front of the camera. No. A lot of people want
- 2:39me to. But now and then I moved, you know what, I
- 2:43thought, the news just wasn't for me, So I moved towards talk like
- 2:46talk show entertainment. Got a chop Le's see We'll go show in Stanford.
- 2:51Wow, yep, I did. I knew obviously, I grew up in
- 2:54the Jerry Springer College. After college, it was it was. It was
- 3:00literally a phenomenon that show you would have like when I was younger, it
- 3:05was like Maury Povich and who wasn't the guy that chained smoked? Uh,
- 3:14we're going way back. I was probably in my early teens. Monty oh,
- 3:19the Monty Williams show. Williams, Oh shit, I'm gonna have to
- 3:23google it. During the show, but this guy just chang passed away.
- 3:27He just chained smoked And it was like one of the kind of the first
- 3:30shows where the fights broke out and they I don't remember, I know,
- 3:35Maury Springer, I don't know if you know karamo Is, Oh god,
- 3:38I know, people are gonna listen to me like dude, dude, it's
- 3:40this guy, this guy. I'll figure it out anyway. So that's how
- 3:44I kind of grew up on these shows. And then when Springer hit in
- 3:46college, like that was almost like what they would call you know, like,
- 3:51uh, you know TV had to be in front of you know,
- 3:53you had to be sitting there, ye appointment TV. And it was hilarious.
- 4:00And it got to the point where after like years and years, you're
- 4:01like, where are they finding these people from? I know? And now
- 4:06you're how long you've been with Steve? Just this one? Last season was
- 4:11my first season? Okay, So have you ever done anything like that in
- 4:15your so basically booking producers? So are you the ones made? Are you
- 4:19the one that finalizes who's coming on? Or are you actually making going through
- 4:25the application? So there's a lot of things. So I actually was a
- 4:28booking producer Friends at Edition two, but obviously it's very different. So like
- 4:31that was like based on like actually, you know, like stories out there
- 4:35like news stories, and I would have to book the interviews or like the
- 4:39talent you know for that. This is different kind of booking. But ye,
- 4:45no, we have these things called the carts where they'll call in.
- 4:47People will call in be like hey, I need your help, leave a
- 4:50message, you know, all over our hiatus period or just every day,
- 4:57or they'll email in, text in like give like a lot of like opportunities
- 5:01for people to reach out to us, like telling like us their stories and
- 5:05what they need help with. That's the easy part because they come to us.
- 5:11The hard part is getting the other side. We call it part B
- 5:15to agree. Sometimes they both are already like I'm ready to go. You
- 5:18know, I think she's cheating. He's I think he's cheating. We're both
- 5:23willing to come on and prove each other that we're you know, we're not.
- 5:27Sometime, on the other hand, no, maybe if they're like,
- 5:30Okay, I think my husband's you know, my molesting my daughter, why
- 5:33would he want to come on the show and maybe make himself look bad or
- 5:38like you know, yeah exactly. So yeah, that's the hard part.
- 5:42But like that's basically how we book the stories. Sometimes when we do see
- 5:47stories and like the news will go through that and try to book them.
- 5:53You know, I was trying to get like who is it? I forgot
- 5:59who was There's a few like just like well known people that have like crazy
- 6:03stories out there. But yeah, so now you have to like do you
- 6:08have to fact check? So round check? Do you have to like maybe
- 6:11look through police blodders? Do you have to do anything to make sure these
- 6:13people aren't because like Springer had been set up before. Yeah, Big MTV
- 6:17one. It was like a spring Break edition. I remember this, Yeah,
- 6:21and it was like two guys and a girl and two were boyfriend and
- 6:27girlfriend and they just faked it and they pretended to get in a fake fight
- 6:30on stage just for this is before social media. It's just you know.
- 6:34And then and then Springer came out a minute like yeah we got do you
- 6:38know, so do you guys any kind of kind of yeah, like we
- 6:43speak to family members, see what's kind of going on, trying to bring
- 6:46them on to Honestly, it's kind of rare for them for us to leave
- 6:50just catch them, but because we do like ask for like certain evidences like
- 6:56text messages, is that you know whatever I will say though, like I
- 7:00know that if we do find out that they lied, we can sue them
- 7:04for whatever, however much the cost, like the episode costs. So typically
- 7:11people don't. We do put them through detector tests sometimes and you know,
- 7:15see if we can see what's kind of going on. But no, our
- 7:18number one rule is that it has to be true, like a true story.
- 7:24But yeah, no, that's diffic These people come up from all over
- 7:27the country. I always thought Springer was like I used to we used to
- 7:29joke around, like how many people I know? That's somebody? No,
- 7:33we fly them in, We do travel them in. You pay for their
- 7:36expenses. Ye there ye travel put the arm on the Hilton. Yeah,
- 7:45a few of those hotels in Stanford. Yeah, they must get excited now
- 7:48it is just one thing or two nights. Typically it's one night, yea,
- 7:53one night, two days and yeah TFK Newark. We have drivers.
- 7:58You know, we're like we have like a driving company and you know our
- 8:01company, we have our own drivers. Yeah. It's like kind of a
- 8:03good deal because it's like you know what, you like, all travel is
- 8:07paid for food when you get here, hotel. So it's like if people
- 8:11really want to get to the bottom of something, well they don't. It
- 8:15doesn't cost them a penny, and like we do pay for like compensation when
- 8:18they miss work too. Oh wow, So it's like okay, well it's
- 8:20really about like helping them, like getting resolution to problems. Like yeah,
- 8:26it can be funny and like shit for shits and giggles, but like a
- 8:30lot of the times, like there are serious like topics where it's like,
- 8:33well, we would want to find out if like you know, your grand
- 8:37the grandfather is like molesting the baby, you know, like the grandchild.
- 8:41It's like, yeah, it's kind of crazy. Do you do you have
- 8:45like have you ever had anyone arrested? So no, so that doesn't happen
- 8:48with we can't. It's like a waiver. We don't. There's a lot
- 8:54of paperwork. We don't, like we can't do anything, you know,
- 8:56I will say, Like a good example is like I did have somebody her
- 9:03son had like bruises like down in his growing area, Like so she brought
- 9:07him to the hospital. It's in like Louisiana, and they ended up like
- 9:11taking her child away and like because they thought that she was molesting him or
- 9:16something or her boyfriend whatever. So she couldn't see her son for for a
- 9:22while, you know, she didn't have custody anymore, and then she came
- 9:26to her show proved her innocence by taking live checkter test. Boyfriend did too,
- 9:31and they both were innocent, and she ended up showing them the episode
- 9:35and got her kid back. Really yeah, so like those are the stories
- 9:37where I'm like, wow, I feel so good and like, you know,
- 9:39kind of made a difference out there. But yeah, yeah, so
- 9:45that's an example of something like that. Yeah, because I watched that fifteen
- 9:48minute like it was like a fife, Like I've seen the show before,
- 9:52but I'm like, I wanted to refresh it because what's it avail about Peacock?
- 9:56It is on Peacock with CW I think in that just in that fifteen
- 10:03minute clip, these are the topics. Sexual amount of station of either adults
- 10:09or children, sex with students, yeah, that's a big one. Sleeping
- 10:16with underach people. Yeah, and basically abuse, whether sexual, physical,
- 10:22whatever. But that's another big one. There's a lot of cheats too,
- 10:26well, yeah, cheating is easy. That's on every show. No,
- 10:28I know. You know. That's why I asked you about like law enforcement,
- 10:31Like, like I get you're not you can't entrap somebody, which if
- 10:37the show gets this is just me talking. If the show gets a reputation
- 10:43of you're never gonna get guess. Yeah, Like you know, if I
- 10:46beat my girlfriend, my girlfriend calls up and I go on the show,
- 10:50and then I and I walk out and boom on the handcuffs because I said,
- 10:52yeah, I beat that bitch, Well, then no one's gonna come
- 10:54on the show. Yeah, I totally understand. No. But just watching
- 10:58that clip, I know a couple of things. I love this guy,
- 11:03Steve Steve. I liked him when he was on Springer Show, but like
- 11:05I like, I like him because you know, he he's not like Springer
- 11:09never really used to get in anyone's face. He wasn't. That wasn't his
- 11:13mentality to be a mayor for Yeah, he was never a cop, I
- 11:16don't think anyway. But but local's big, strong, ah, and he
- 11:22loves to throw chairs guess. So yeah, in our office we have one
- 11:28like on the ceiling. No, he's very passionate, I guess is a
- 11:35good word. No, he's just a badass. Like he just like he
- 11:39gets very like emotionally involved in these stories. That's why he gets so angry,
- 11:43like especially like when it is like the child molesters on the stage,
- 11:48you know, like he's not scared to like chase them backstage if they run
- 11:50away, you know, like just be like what the hell, dude,
- 11:54you know, no, Steve, everybody loves him. Is everyone, Like
- 11:58I'm assuming everyone's like pad it down or go through metal attack because like just
- 12:03watching you know, you have I do anyway, I have, you know,
- 12:05awful anxiety. But like I'll watch shows, especially shows like that,
- 12:09and I'll just feel like, like when it comes to that confrontation point,
- 12:13like oh man, this dude's got a gun or a knife on them or
- 12:16something. Obviously they don't, but yeah, yeah, I know. I'm
- 12:18sure you guys have the biggest your own security staff and all that. Yeah.
- 12:22Yeah, I was gonna say, we also have security that is there
- 12:24somewhere on stage ton backstage, you know, so like they can't. It's
- 12:30rare for them to really even be able to touch each other, although I'm
- 12:33sure you've seen some fights. Yeah, but obviously security is pulling them away.
- 12:37But no, when they walk in, we want them, you know,
- 12:39take their bags away. They can only they can't even their their cell
- 12:43phones backstage put into separate green rooms. They're not you know, stuff like
- 12:48that, So come on out. Yeah, a lot of it goes,
- 12:52a lot goes into it. I will say, you know, you're obviously
- 12:56you know you have your own role there, but as the show is is
- 13:00being recorded, what is your role if you have a role as it is
- 13:03recorded, or you're just kind of in your office and so yeah, So
- 13:07there are production teams. I want to say there was six this past season,
- 13:13and so each team has a producer and then too, one's a senior
- 13:18associate producer or an associate producer, and one's like a booker for each team.
- 13:24So let's say my team has a story that day, we have to
- 13:28give them hair, makeup, whatever, we all go. There's different time
- 13:31slots. So if it's my story, I'm backstage with the headset, you
- 13:37know, I'm talking to the There's a person who either starts on the stage
- 13:39talking to Steve, and then one person who walks on the stage after when
- 13:43they're called out. So I'm next to the person who's gonna walk out to
- 13:48talk to Steve, and I'm talking to them like just you know, prepping
- 13:52them as we're watching what's going on. That's where I am. If it's
- 13:58not my story, I'm either prepping my my guess for their upcoming story,
- 14:03or if my guess already went, then I'm just chilling in the back doing
- 14:07like paperwork, you know, helping where I can. But yeah, there's
- 14:13a chair, got lost, something's going on. Yep, yep, No,
- 14:16there there are some like times we're just like, okay, they're gonna
- 14:18run, so everybody get in the green room, like we know this guy's
- 14:22gonna run, so we got we can't yeah, can't be in front of
- 14:26the camera for that. We gotta hide. Oh my god, this for
- 14:30seventeen, Yeah, just gover nude for eighteen. Yeah, that's that's that's
- 14:35just crazy, Like, I know, keep going, how you keep finding
- 14:39people? Yeah, I just I was hard back to Springer. But you
- 14:43know, obviously it's kind of a start of this whole trend. I know,
- 14:48you can't think of the other guys trying to think of now. His
- 14:52his logo was a big mouth like open wide, no, not ringing a
- 14:56bell. Now, how old are you three? Oh god, yeah,
- 15:01I don't know who you're talking about. Kind of look it up myself.
- 15:07I think when you go on, oh man, oh god, I can't.
- 15:11I'm trying to like google it and not be rude and not like look
- 15:13google it, but I could probably find it, don't find it. It
- 15:20was not late night too like, but it was syndicated. It wasn't like,
- 15:24you know, it wasn't like a you know, like with Johnny Carson
- 15:28Show or anything. But I don't want to do too much debt he or
- 15:33looking for it late night look up like late night conflict, late night talk
- 15:43show logo big mouth. And this guy was like, crazy, there is
- 15:50who is it? Well that's the logo. Okay, it's the Morton Downy
- 15:54Junior Show. Okay, yeah, I think I've heard of it, but
- 15:58I have not. I don't know. And this dude just they smoke while
- 16:02he sat there. I definitely have not really voice, and it was just
- 16:07like it was just like I've always been a late night person. My mom
- 16:10could never wake me up and get the fuck out of bed for school,
- 16:12yep. And I always had like you know, since I was like god,
- 16:17since I was probably twelve, I had a TV in my bedroom,
- 16:19so yeah, you know, mom would go to bed early and my TV
- 16:22beyond and back then there was you know, four stations like I was alive
- 16:27when Fox just became a thing. So it was just you know, CBS,
- 16:33ABC, NBC, and PBS and then Fox came on and I think
- 16:37it might have even been a late night Fox show. It was still like
- 16:41I would I don't think they had syndication back then. But again, it
- 16:45wasn't a Letterman type show. Yeah, the Oh my god, that's so
- 16:48funny. It would be. I can't believe I couldn't remember that or had
- 16:52that preps. That's my fault. That's really funny. So what's what's some
- 16:57of your craziest guests? You know to name them, but like like the
- 17:00who circumstances behind it? Some of the stories. Have you ever had to
- 17:04like, you know, you say they you gotta runner down the hallway?
- 17:07Have you locked the door? Have you been like yeah, like can you
- 17:10watch the filming as you're in your office and kind of see what's going on?
- 17:12Yeah, yeah, we have a live stream, Yes you know what's
- 17:15going on. For me, I've never had none of my guests have ran,
- 17:21which I'm thankful for. I have one story, this is kind of
- 17:26this is pretty greasy. There was just like a weird circumstance. Did we
- 17:30were talking about like, wow, this is like some Jerry Springer shit.
- 17:34This couple. So this couple, well say, I can't even name them,
- 17:40but like this couple, what's together? They have a kid together,
- 17:42they end up separating, and they both got new boyfriend girlfriend. Right,
- 17:47Yeah, so the girlfriend obviously didn't like the let's the ex wife whatever.
- 17:53So and then obviously the new boyfriend didn't like the ex husband. I guess,
- 17:59I guess the girlfriend and the ex husband ended up hooking up to like
- 18:06get back at them. I don't know they were saying that, like the
- 18:08girlfriend. No, Honestly, being in the restaurant industry, I've seen something
- 18:14exactly like that. But I just remember, like they old, they all
- 18:17like stayed together, and it was just like really odd and like, I
- 18:21don't know, it was weird. It was just that was like a kind
- 18:23of like a weird one. Although I've seen that in my real life too.
- 18:30What else, Oh, this was like this one was honestly my favorite
- 18:33story, but it was it was cute. It was cute. It was
- 18:37a DNA story where this dad didn't think his son was his son, and
- 18:44it was because he's seven foot four, the tallest man I've ever seen in
- 18:48my life. The dad and their son was a dwarf, had dwarf ism,
- 18:52So that was really yeah, has nothing to do with whatever, but
- 18:57like so we brought them on, but it was was just like that was
- 19:00that was like a cute story, like you take that whole relationship and run
- 19:06with it. Well, yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's like you're
- 19:08super tall. Yeah, and I remember she was like six four. It's
- 19:14like, yeah, no, they're on TikTok to actually, but no,
- 19:18like that was like I think my favorite story too revealed that he was the
- 19:25father, he was the butler. Yeah, but what I'm saying was he
- 19:27like happy, sad, so happy, Yeah, like crying, he was
- 19:32like so happy. He's like that's my man. You know, we a
- 19:36lot of times like these people don't have access to like DNA testing are yeah,
- 19:41or it's expensive you know New York. Yeah, yeah, they make
- 19:49the best of it. I had a good like theft stories which were kind
- 19:55of crazy, but yeah, I can't really think of him honestly. After
- 19:59they're gone. I'm like, try yeah, right, try a buck,
- 20:00help move on? How many? How many? How many are there?
- 20:06Like of you there? So the last season I booked seventeen. Wow,
- 20:11my senior associate producer booked nineteen and a half, and I think he had
- 20:15the most. Are you ever just like like you get to the phone part
- 20:18of it, right, you call him? Yep? Are you just like?
- 20:22Who the hell am I? Well, you know I have a work
- 20:23phone too, So my my work phone number is actually on the Steve Volca
- 20:27show like website. Yeah, it's like the team Warren. It says like
- 20:33Sophia Sanchez has my work you know, cell phone numbers, so people just
- 20:36call me to When I googled the show last night, it came up Steve's
- 20:41team. I didn't click on it, but yeah, I'm on there.
- 20:45No, I'm on. That's so funny. So I'm like, they leave
- 20:47me voicemail stuff like that. You get a rolling credit at the end,
- 20:49yeah if I yeah, You're like, I don't know about that. This
- 20:55is like this, it's so crazy to me that, like Milford, like,
- 20:57there's so many people that and so I I know, you call Steve
- 21:02right now, we'll get him on the line. He'd be like, yeah,
- 21:08he lives in Darien. You know it's crazy too. I'm not even
- 21:11sure if you know this his wife is the executive producer of the show.
- 21:15Yeah, and I you know, she she worked for the Jerry Springer Show
- 21:21and that's how they met, and she like pretty much like he you know,
- 21:26started to make a name for himself when he was like on camera a
- 21:29lot, and everybody just seemed to love him because he's always on camera,
- 21:32the big bald guy. They loved him. And I think, uh,
- 21:36you know, his wife was a producer, very brilliant woman, and they
- 21:38kind of took that and ran with it and branched off, and you know,
- 21:42to this day, she's still producer. Yeah. I just imagine like
- 21:48if like Reels and TikTok were around, I know, like Steve was always
- 21:53the guy you talked about more than a guess, did you see, cause
- 22:00I think Springer had a little more you know, back then there was a
- 22:03lot more physical confrontation. I think, yeah, it's different. You know,
- 22:06I've been watching the Local show and it seems like I almost feel like
- 22:11the guests know one that Steve's not gonna hit him because he could get his
- 22:15ass suit, which kind of back then. I don't know, I don't
- 22:19I mean not that Springer every hitting anybody, but like there were, there
- 22:22were there were some physical altercations on it. Things are different back then they
- 22:26were, yeah, and now you know, and and it annoys me because
- 22:30just watching some clips, like these fucking kids just think they can you know,
- 22:36they know he's not gonna hit him, so they just try to be
- 22:37so fucking tough on the show. I know, my interview is like just
- 22:41one turn, Steve just fucking send them to the ground. You know What's
- 22:45funny sometimes like what I remember my I had a it was a cheat.
- 22:48I had a guess it was a cheat DNA you know this. It was
- 22:52a younger couple whatever. And I remember like putting them on the last story
- 22:57of the day before like our break for like Thanksgiving or something. We're off
- 23:00for like ten days, and I was like, all right, last story
- 23:03of the day, here we go. I didn't think it was gonna be
- 23:06that good. And they went out there and she started out sitting down talking
- 23:11to Steve explaining the story, and he ended up going out there and was
- 23:15like kind of like messing with Steve and I'm backstage like horrifying, like oh
- 23:19my god. And like I remember he like said something like he was like
- 23:25Steve was like, oh, what is that or like something like a generic
- 23:27question. I remember my guess was just like he was like your butt something
- 23:32like that, and I'm like, oh my god, Steve's gonna end him
- 23:36something like, you know, being he was just being a smart ass,
- 23:38and uh, Steve ended up having fun with them. He was just like
- 23:41he's like, you can't afford this, well it's something like stupid, Like
- 23:44he was being fun with it. So sometimes he just doesn't care and like
- 23:48has fun with like people like that. Other times he'll just like annihilate them
- 23:52like verbally. You ever have a follow up episodes like all the time people
- 23:56come back, you know you got another kid? They do another d Yeah,
- 24:00I'm like, yeah, we do, Like as I you know,
- 24:04I told you before about that guest who I got her child back from proving
- 24:08her innocence. We did do a follow up obviously with them and she explained,
- 24:12you know what, you know, my kid full time now, you
- 24:15know whatever, thanking Steve, you know, like forgiving an opportunity that kind
- 24:19of stuff. But we do do follow ups, like like especially in like
- 24:25the cheat stories, you know, see if they're still together are they not?
- 24:29Or you know, there're any topics you don't want to touch, or
- 24:33you just let everything come through and you guys just decide whether or not.
- 24:37We always there's like a saying like we always pitch every story that we can
- 24:41that's willing to come. And then sometimes, you know, we sometimes if
- 24:45we think like maybe if they're a little too I don't know, I guess
- 24:49unstable or like not mentally okay to come, like we won't. Like what
- 24:55I watched today was h guy that punched his girlfriend while she was holding their
- 25:07baby and cracked her lip, and you know, Steve went off on her
- 25:12and it was like, you know how you know, the baby could have
- 25:15fell and this dude was so ignorant and Steve didn't care. He's like,
- 25:21you know, yo, we're right by the bed. If anything, she
- 25:23would have fell in the bed and she deserved to get cracked. That cracked
- 25:26her good. And he went like that. And I'm like, like,
- 25:30to me, anything like that, I don't care. Like I've been with
- 25:33some pretty you know, I've been with some girls that have been kind of
- 25:37crazy. Yeah, yeah, like just hell, I'm fifty, I've been.
- 25:41You know, if anyone like my answer listening to this, we'll probably
- 25:45know what the ones I'm talking about, but like never, never, ever,
- 25:48have I ever been hit by one or they been hit by one.
- 25:52So you know what then no, just making sure we don't we're gonna call
- 25:59me out. We do not bring certain like couples off, like they do
- 26:03have a history of like domestic violence, because let's say, what if let's
- 26:07say to a degree, let's say like they come on because it's like they
- 26:11got hit once or something like, and we want to get down to the
- 26:14issue. We don't think it's gonna happen again. Whatever, But like if
- 26:17they have like he was arrested for domestic violence or she was whatever, we
- 26:22sometimes we don't bring them because like what if it's a cheat story and then
- 26:26she fails and like he's just gonna go home and like what beat her up?
- 26:30You know, like we don't want to set her or set him up
- 26:33for like failure or like you know, I still have happened over the years
- 26:37and not saying this will go show, but like it has to. I
- 26:41mean the Springer Show had to have an incident where like something happened post show
- 26:47when they got back, or any of these shows. More Covich or the
- 26:51Morton down in June, I don't know, like there's just too many shows
- 26:56like this where I'm almost like like like, look, who's the daddy kind
- 26:59of show? Yeah, three guys and girl. Yeah yeah yeah, two
- 27:03guys that aren't the daddy are like what the fuck? And one of them
- 27:06might be dating her at that I know. It's like it's it's a slippery
- 27:10slope. It is, it is, And it's like sometimes it's like after
- 27:14the show, it's like like sometimes we can travel them together. We're like
- 27:18or not, like we're like, all right, let's switch flights, you
- 27:19know, stuff like that. It's like very like that's awkward. Do you
- 27:22have a hot bed of like a city or area that you got a lot
- 27:26of your people from or they're just so random? No? You know what's
- 27:29interesting though, at the end of the season, I remember he is flying
- 27:30a lot of people out a rally a Raleigh, North Carolina. Yeah,
- 27:36Raleigh, and then Indianapolis. I got some maybe like West Virginia, you
- 27:42know, like you know, like there should be a show based in West
- 27:45Virginia, Louisiana. I've gone a few, but yeah, no, I
- 27:51think any local you know. What there was one story was working on was
- 27:55New Haven? Really they didn't come, but I really wanted them to come
- 27:59because I was like, uh, just drive, we will send you a
- 28:00car, you know, but no, maybe like the closest of like the
- 28:06city or like Philly or something, but not Connecticut. There's been a few
- 28:11that's called in from Connecticut, which is interesting, but now now none of
- 28:15my stories at least, But yeah, it's interesting. It is. It's
- 28:22not I'm trying to I want to say, when I was in college,
- 28:25somebody that I didn't know, but somebody knew from Connecticut, Like maybe a
- 28:29college friend knew someone that was on the show. We all watched it in
- 28:32the door one day or something like. This is like I just I like,
- 28:36I get it, especially nowadays when people just want to be famous for
- 28:40a little bit. I know, but like I don't know, how do
- 28:45you do the show go home and just be like go on with your very
- 28:48day, especially if it's like kind of embarrassing. Has anyone ever been arrested
- 28:52on the show? Yeah, I think like after like, I think we
- 28:56had to follow up this past season where this daughter was like proving to our
- 29:02mom that her stepdad molested her and he failed the detector test, and that
- 29:08was one of the episodes I was watching, it was like about molesting a
- 29:12minor. Yeah yeah, so so no, yeah, I've had one.
- 29:22We can say if like if it's like subpoenut and court will send them obviously,
- 29:26you know, like you know now, and also depends like where they
- 29:36are, like if it's like Indianapolis, like that's their probably you know,
- 29:38that's a you know, but yeah, no, I remember we had a
- 29:42follow up, like after that episode came out. She came back and was
- 29:45like, oh, he has been put in jail, and like, you
- 29:48know, other women spoke out like stuff like that. So yeah, I've
- 29:52seen that. That's That's also that amazes me is that some of these idiot
- 29:56dudes agree to command. That's like another interesting time we talk about because I
- 30:02obviously everyone probably thinks that, like why come on a lot of the times
- 30:07it's like they're either pressured by the like family or like the spouse, and
- 30:15you know, like you know, they may just be like if it's like
- 30:17a cheat or something like all right, well you know, if you're not
- 30:19gonna why wouldn't you come on? You know, like if you have nothing
- 30:22to hide kind of thing. A lot of the times it's like the pressure,
- 30:26and they think they can out beat a line detector test. That's what
- 30:30it is. Like they think that they could pass, and they convince themselves
- 30:33that they could pass, but they can't. Yeah. Yeah, you ever
- 30:37taken one? No, but I've been offered to take one? Yeah,
- 30:41I mean criminally now University of Hayen for like political I mean for criminal justice,
- 30:48and one, of course we all took one. I mean they were
- 30:51talking like, you know, you know, is your name Fred? No,
- 30:53It's like yeah, stupid ship. Yeah yeah, but uh yeah,
- 30:57they're they're they're pretty accurate. They are because you know what it is.
- 31:02It's not like you just sit in a room and like they asked you,
- 31:04like, you know, were you here on this day? Like yes,
- 31:08it's it's it is yes and no questions. But they asked that question like
- 31:12twenty different ways and we'll see the percentage of you know what you pass.
- 31:18But you know, stuff like that. They take a while. It's like
- 31:19the house, Yeah guy that doesn't Yeah, same guy. So it was
- 31:26Dan for a while. Have you in the show? You just like get
- 31:29back in the day, like all right, Dan read the results. His
- 31:32daughter actually does it now for us, and then we do have another guy
- 31:34who does it too. But yeah, no, it's like in the office
- 31:41and I'm like, I'll welcome to the you know, welcome to the room,
- 31:42and we have testing in session like everything. Yeah, no, it's
- 31:48cool. Yeah, it's really cool. Yeah. Again, like it just
- 31:51it boggles my mind and like just being a follower of these shows pretty much
- 31:56my whole life, you know, how it's gonna come back. I know,
- 32:01like, what what's the percentage of like Dan coming out in me going
- 32:07Pa, you didn't beat her? Well, you know, it's like very
- 32:10rare that that happens. It's interesting because I remember, like I had a
- 32:14story where, oh my gosh, it was like it was a child in
- 32:16less story and I remember the stepdad. He like the way he looked.
- 32:23I'm not I'm not saying his personally, but I'm not trying to be superficial
- 32:27or anything, but he looked a little he can cof a little creepy.
- 32:30I guess in a way, like you know whatever. And I remember Steve
- 32:34saying something like that, you know, and just being like, you know,
- 32:37it was just all signs pointed to him, I guess in a way.
- 32:42And I Steve doesn't know the results until he reads them, so he's
- 32:47like grilling this guy and then he ended up passing, and I'm like,
- 32:52I'm like, oh gosh, you know, like it's like you really never
- 32:55know. So does Steve know? Does everyone get notified the results as a
- 33:00whole? Now, you guys know the results ahead of time, like when
- 33:06it's announced. Yeah, so when Steve's grilling this guy on stage, he
- 33:09doesn't know the results yet, so everyone's in shock. Weather comes either way.
- 33:15Because this is actually pretty cool because if you think about if Steve knew
- 33:17that he was guilty, he could just exactly we can't have him be biased.
- 33:22I'm like, I don't think he would even want to be so like
- 33:23TV so I don't know, you're no better than me. Yeah, no,
- 33:27he doesn't know. He doesn't know until he reads it. That's pretty
- 33:30cool cool, And he's he like afterwards like he's been like, oh wow,
- 33:35you know, like yeah yeah, yeah, kind of like he doesn't
- 33:37know, you know, yeah yeah yeah. So you guys are on hiatus
- 33:44right now until August. When's your like, what's your filming season and what's
- 33:47your season on TV? Well, all the time, it's pretty much on
- 33:52all the time, So for a while, so we filmed he should be
- 33:58slinging drinks and I guess. Yeah. So we filmed from No. I'm
- 34:02off from March to August. So August to March. Yeah. So I'm
- 34:07just partending right now, which is so nice for me because so we get
- 34:13paid during no during season. So yeah, but it's so nice for me
- 34:22because I don't even remember the last time. I was just like in the
- 34:23restaurant industry and that's it, you know, like I've always had something else.
- 34:29So it's really nice to just partend. Can we do this? Can
- 34:34we give two tickets to the show something? Probably? Yeah, yeah,
- 34:37I'm sure. Yeah, No, I can get like slots yeah yeah,
- 34:40yeah, you know, like Dave and Taylor came to the show. Oh
- 34:45yeah yeah yeah, some of my coworkers for me last Games up. Yeah.
- 34:49For some reason, I thought it was filmed a couple of days ago,
- 34:51Like it's in New York, Like, no, it's in Stanford.
- 34:54No, we could totally get them on. Yeah, can you get me?
- 34:59Can you get me on? Well, if you have a good story,
- 35:02probably not, Yeah, I don't think so, not like that not
- 35:06a story for that, I don't think. So I'm trying to think I
- 35:09mean, I've done some dumb shit in my life, but and I don't
- 35:15want to make something up. So all right, So Austin Steve Wilkos,
- 35:22you're back in August for your second season with him. But we were talking
- 35:29about the topic and we weren't really sure we wanted to talk about But we're
- 35:34going to talk about it in a different sense or a different angle, I
- 35:37would say. But the two Michigan parents of Ethan Crumbley, who is the
- 35:44fifteen year old school sugar yeah he was, have both been charged and sentenced
- 35:52to ten to fifteen years in prison. Yep, for that act, that
- 35:58hainous act. Obviously, Again, I don't want to make this a gun
- 36:01debate. I don't want to make it not even a bait and discussion.
- 36:05Yeah, I don't want to make it political, but I kind of want
- 36:12to talk about it because you had mentioned when you work for Inside Edition,
- 36:15you said you seem to get a lot of these school shootings or mass shootings.
- 36:19Yeah, your desk, Well, I always say my Forte because Inside
- 36:24Edition did have like an entertainment aspect of things, entertainment stories, but my
- 36:30Forte was always like the hard News, which is like those kind of stories,
- 36:34you know, shootings, Yeah, yeah, you know, yeah,
- 36:38No, I remember, like, ah, it's terrible. Like I remember
- 36:44like having to be on like the Parkland shooting court hearing and like having to
- 36:50like write down for two days straight, which is so dreaming, you know,
- 36:54like the like the most awful things that the parents said to the shooter
- 37:00when the parents got to like talk to Yeah, and like I remember like
- 37:04having to like take notes in like timestamps so we can obviously err on the
- 37:07show, and like, you know, we want the best moments. But
- 37:12I remember being like, oh my gosh, Like I like and you know,
- 37:15like you do have to be very like unattacked, Like you don't want
- 37:19to like be like emotionally invested. Is yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm
- 37:27like what you're doing for a living. I was like, I'm trying to
- 37:30be. I was like and not like emotionally involved as I could. But
- 37:35I remember like it was probably like a year into working there, and I
- 37:38was like, this is probably not for me. What makes people so good
- 37:42at their job in the news is being so cutthroat, don't care. You
- 37:45can't be, you know, because if it bleeds, it leads, and
- 37:49you want that. But no, I remember being on like Texas shooting,
- 37:53you know, having to call like parents, like the parents and like yeah
- 37:59victims, yeah, and see, hey do you want an interview? It's
- 38:00like obviously you don't say it like that, but like, yeah, that's
- 38:06that's part of the job. And I remember, yeah, that was not
- 38:08fun, but it is part of the job, right, you know,
- 38:12you have to do it. Sad depressing, but yeah, no, I
- 38:15remember being in a lot of like school shootings or just mass shootings, shootings
- 38:21in New York, Selbys shootings, you know, Well, I'm glad you're
- 38:24on the Steve bullcas a little different. Yeah, but yeah, no,
- 38:29that's the real world though. Yeah. So they got they got sentence the
- 38:32ten to fifteen years in prison. Both they have not seen each other until
- 38:37they went into court yesterday since their arrests. Yeah, I again, I
- 38:42don't know many in particulars as broke last night. I read a little bit
- 38:45about it. Not the sound, I mean just just it seems like there
- 38:50is a shooting all the time. So I know, you actually look back
- 38:52and side which one was this? You know, was that the fifteen year
- 38:54old like or I think so, I'm not sure. Yeah, yeah,
- 38:59but this is a I believe this is a landmark sentencing for a shooting I
- 39:05know of parents being held responsible. Now, we did read that they purchased
- 39:09him a block nine millimeter. Yeah, I don't. I know you mentioned
- 39:15there was like some text messages or something. I wish I saw that something
- 39:19like. Again, I don't, I'm not. I don't want to get
- 39:20too far. Look, I hadn't read up all on all of it.
- 39:22I kind of briefly remember the case. Again, these come by our news
- 39:27feeds. It seems, you know, every other week, not more than
- 39:30that. And you know, we live in the world where we were close
- 39:34to Sandy Hook. And yeah, and I mentioned to you, I said,
- 39:38you know, if if if Adam Lanza didn't kill his mother, maybe
- 39:43she would have been held responsible because she had I know that he had access
- 39:47to so not again, I'm not a big gun person. I'm going to
- 39:52get my license, but like that's just my own choice. But going through
- 39:59those courses the NRA just just solidified to me of how important safety and and
- 40:06you know, locking your guns up and I know anyone to have access to
- 40:09it, let alone, should they be going away with ten to fifteen years.
- 40:14That was for the course to decide. That's what they decided. Hopefully,
- 40:19maybe these two are sacrificial lambs as far as get more awareness out there,
- 40:24get better parenting out there. Yeah, get better safety in hand,
- 40:30mental health, mental everything. It sucks for them, but again, I
- 40:36gotta read more. I mean, I don't know if they I guess this
- 40:37is more than was what was suggested. Oh really, that's another thing.
- 40:43I think they were suggested like five to eight years and they like doubled it
- 40:46or something interesting. So I have a little bit of a little bit of
- 40:52faith. Sometimes there's a justice system that maybe they got this one right.
- 40:58But this should this should be a wake up call to a lot of you
- 41:01know, parents of kids instead of just saying or just blowing off there my
- 41:08kids just going through growing pains. Yeah, there's just so much like I
- 41:13really wish, you know, you could just monitor. I don't want to
- 41:16invade people's privacy, but monitor what they're what they're following online, what who
- 41:22they're talking. I know, you know, I don't know. I think
- 41:28it's just I think this could end up being a good decision if we move
- 41:32forward. Yeah, I don't want people to overreact with their children either and
- 41:37call nine to one one every time their kid farts and says, you know,
- 41:40I'm gonna kill that bitch. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, Where
- 41:44do you draw the line? I know? But a lot of the times
- 41:46too, it's like you don't how do you know? Right? Like how
- 41:50do you know? Like I know a lot of times, like I think
- 41:52it was Kip Kinkle. Do you remember that name he was? He was
- 41:57he was a school shooter back in the day. He was young. He
- 42:00went to the high school. He had schizophrenia. I forget what state was.
- 42:06Yeah, Kip Kinkle him. I know, it's a weird name,
- 42:14but I remember, like, you know, reading about it, and there
- 42:17was like like recordings of him, you know, like from like the police
- 42:22and stuff like that. I guess like he was like crying after he had
- 42:27like shot some of his like you know, like you know, like the
- 42:30students in the school you know where he went, and like he was just
- 42:34like crying, complained about voices in his head and stuff like that. So
- 42:37it's like sometimes it's like when you know that, like how could you have
- 42:40not known? You know, he did kill his parents, so like I
- 42:44don't know what would have happened after that. But like sometimes when when they
- 42:46have like I don't know, mental illnesses like whatever, you never know what
- 42:51they're you know, capable of. I guess I don't know. I feel
- 42:53like it does come down to like mental illness too, like where it's like
- 42:57paying attention as a parent, like what's going on and whatever? Even fathom
- 43:01doing what you know these people are doing? I know, but like how
- 43:05do you know what someone's saying or not? We never know. It all
- 43:08comes down to a mental health. But so it's like, as I said,
- 43:12thing is, I could never in a gazillion years get in your head,
- 43:15and you can never get into mind yeah, or anyone else's to anyone
- 43:19else's, you know, unless the matrix happens and can plug it. Yeah,
- 43:22all that shit. That's a whole different show. Like but even likes
- 43:25what we're talking about before the show, like the Columbine one of the one
- 43:30of the combine shooter's parents, like the mom was like she feels like obviously
- 43:34a lot of guilt, but she was just like I never knew. And
- 43:37then she remembers saying like she went through his room after and like saw like
- 43:42a like a notepad and it was like drawings of the devil and like stuff
- 43:46like that. And it's like, well a kid can just come home from
- 43:49school, hey mom whatever, you know draw that I study whatever they were
- 43:52studying some like like demon thing. I don't know, but I think it
- 43:57was ninety six maybe somewhere back then. I mean I was I graduate high
- 44:01school nineteen. He was ninety seven, yeah, right in there, so
- 44:05I wasn't much out of high school. And when I saw pictures in the
- 44:07video these guys in these trench coats, I'm like, I had like twenty
- 44:12of these dudes in my high school class and you never would know or like
- 44:15like they were just kind of goth or like guard or liked horror movies.
- 44:19I like horror movies, but I didn't where you know, like I how
- 44:22do you identify it? It's just like for me, I feel like when
- 44:24it comes to like parenting, it's like it's it's like it comes down to
- 44:28like enabling versus like maybe not knowing or like whatever, like if these people
- 44:31bought their kid a gun, Like Okay, that's what I'm saying. Okay,
- 44:36I understand being at fault for that, just being a parent of a
- 44:38school shooter, maybe not really knowing or like maybe you knew that they had
- 44:43like some mental like challenges, like I guess it's different than enabling it,
- 44:46or like knowing that they had like violent tendencies, like why would you buy
- 44:52your fifteen year old gud? That's what I don't understand. They're not an
- 44:55adult. Like I let my girlfriend's son shoot with me before okay, you
- 44:59know, setting yeah range and shot some guns I thanks to a couple of
- 45:02friends of mine that were members at a club. And if I do end
- 45:07up buying a gun, he will never touch it unless we're out of range.
- 45:10Yea, it won't even just be me. I'll have to be I'm
- 45:14just I get too fucking anxious. Yeah, you know, but it'll be
- 45:17in a thumb print safe And that's that. When he turns eighteen and whatever
- 45:22the legal age is and he wants to get his pistol perman, he's on
- 45:24his own. That's on him, I know. But the purchase a fifteen
- 45:29year old a lot, that's like what, like i'd like what kind of
- 45:32like what's the point? I don't know, Like I don't know, and
- 45:37like I don't know. Again, I gotta read more about that case,
- 45:40but I hope something good comes out of it in this prison sentence that were
- 45:46not for the parents. Fuck them, but where maybe it like my thing
- 45:52is, it's not even like huge news like every time these shootings come out,
- 45:55it's it features what news feed for like two and hour half days then
- 46:00it's gone, Yeah, not anymore. It's not huge news. It used
- 46:04to be. It should be huge news, like like the media should take
- 46:07this and be like, see what could happen? Yeah, it kind of
- 46:10like in your face, like, yeah, you're not even safe anymore.
- 46:15Yeah yeah, And maybe that would make I hate to say better parenting because
- 46:20it is so hard, but just maybe talking more to your kids and asking
- 46:23more questions and they all go through their phases where they don't want to talk
- 46:27to their mom or dad or yeah they're rebellious, but that if that phase
- 46:31lasted more than a couple of years, maybe should like turn a red light
- 46:34on or a green lighter head and be like, hey, what's really going
- 46:37on? I know, like you really never know? You know, well,
- 46:42you say you didn't watch it the other night because you work, but
- 46:44I know, on a happier note, I watched like a few seconds to
- 46:49man when they're second straight NC tournament Now they're six since nineteen ninety nine.
- 46:55Were born in two thousand and one. So you witnessed five, I've seen
- 47:04all six. Just another dominant performance throughout the tournament. Never seen anything like
- 47:08it in a two year stretch. They're literally gonna lose all five of their
- 47:13starters, most likely to either graduation or going to the NBA. However,
- 47:19they got another huge recruiting class coming in and we'll see. So I was
- 47:24up in Boston over the weekend. Viva invited me to a Final four watch
- 47:30party at this bar called Jake and Joe's. I think it's like a little
- 47:32chain up there. It's like a sports bar whatever. Cool, fine,
- 47:37nothing crazy, And they had this girl there. Her name is Kelly in
- 47:42Vegas and she's a sports gambling influencer on Twitter. So very attractive girl.
- 47:49You know. I took a photo. My girlfriend's like, oh vest put
- 47:52it on Instagram. I'm like Jesus Christ. So I finally got to meet
- 47:58her. We're just shooting the shit and she's most bet on the games tonight
- 48:01and I kind of got there a little late for the first game. Ukon
- 48:05was a second game, and I said not tonight, but I put a
- 48:08future bet in. Basically, I was up in Boston in November, and
- 48:12you can't bet on Yukon in Connecticut. So I said, you know what,
- 48:15fuck it. I threw twenty five dollars bet on Yukon to win the
- 48:19title in November, and it was plus twenty five hundred, so if I
- 48:22won, it's six fifty. Yep. So I showed her my bet,
- 48:28and FanDuel was offering me. This was before the game started on Saturday night.
- 48:34FanDuel offered me three hundred and thirty seven dollars instead, instead of trying
- 48:38to see if they're gonna win the whole thing for six fifty. And she
- 48:40told me, I know, I don't know if you're a gambler or not,
- 48:43or even know if I'm talking about. But she's like, wait a
- 48:46second, do not take that bet that those are not good odds, like
- 48:50they like, don't take the cash out, just hold a bet. Yeah,
- 48:52six fifty, like Yukon's winning this whole fucking thing, which I already
- 48:55knew I wasn't. I wasn't gonna cash it out. I just wanted to
- 48:59show what it was. She's like, pick pull that up again. So
- 49:02I pull it up again and she takes it out of my hand and she
- 49:06takes a picture with her phone. She throws it on Twitter. She's like,
- 49:09this is why you never cash out. What the fuck it got?
- 49:14Like? It blew up? Oh my god, Oh my gosh. Unfortunately
- 49:17it blew up more for her because it was a picture of my phone.
- 49:20She didn't tag me in it, but it ended up getting one and thirty
- 49:27six thousand views. Oh my god. That's like just her hand on my
- 49:30phone and I just have like a little tag under it and like, and
- 49:35then everyone started comment and like, you know, then the trolls came out.
- 49:37Yea, yeah, Now this's crazy about tweeter. So now in the
- 49:39last two days, I'll just get these notifications that someone has liked either her
- 49:46tweet or someone that commented on her tweet, right m h. And it's
- 49:51just I would say one hundred of the last hundred likes that you know,
- 49:55you just gonna click out ovlation and I click on it and I see it.
- 49:59It's like the hottest girl you've ever seen with no followers. So it's
- 50:02just like all these bots coming. Yeah, and it's just because I have
- 50:07no twitters. I have like one hundred and fifty followers. I don't really
- 50:10post on it. I'm more Instagram, Facebook. Yeah, And I'm like,
- 50:15this is why I would be so annoyed, like like that's why I
- 50:16don't understand about like these like like like do Steve Wilkos have a Twitter honestly
- 50:22personal one? Probably? Probably? The thing is, so it's funny because
- 50:30I don't have. So I do have a Twitter, but the only reason
- 50:32I had it was for Inside Edition because we got like verified on each of
- 50:37us got verified on like Twitter, because we had to use it for like
- 50:40certain social media videos are reaching out. But that's it. I always like,
- 50:45only like do like I'm Instagram, you know, Facebook kind of go
- 50:51oh yeah, so he has He's not even verified though, so I don't
- 50:53think he does much on it. Yeah, Steve Will cost Show, Steve
- 50:59Will TV. Yeah. Uh, all comments and photuses account maybe used on
- 51:05TV, web and all social media by us. The affiliates are subject to
- 51:07our cos. What does that mean in terms of service? Probably? Uh.
- 51:13He's got sixty six thousand followers though, were you know what? He's
- 51:16really big on YouTube? Yeah? I noticed that we won like bards and
- 51:22stuff, big on YouTube, big on TikTok but those are like more like
- 51:27syndicated videos, like you know, you're just you know know, I'm just
- 51:30his and I know we were trying to like come up with something to do,
- 51:32all right, so everyone has like their own tagline, I know,
- 51:37and Steve Wilkos has his own and I'm just gonna play it now. We're
- 51:42gonna we were trying to figure out like some kind of little game to play,
- 51:45like get off the I know, get off, so that I was
- 51:52gonna like just fucking say names. I just like, you got a job
- 51:55that is media driven, so I don't want you to get involved in any
- 51:59of that. I know, I know when you first asked you before,
- 52:01I'm like, I can't say, like, like this is how I would
- 52:04do it, all right, So if you were interviewing me and you had
- 52:07like five people and and if I didn't like them, I would say like,
- 52:12so you would say Lebron James, I'd be like yeah, and then
- 52:20you'd say Joe Biden. I'd be like, yeah myself, so I can
- 52:27get away with it, right, But then you'd be surprised because you say
- 52:30Mariano and I'd be like Rivera, yeah, who, I'm a diehard red
- 52:34Sox fan. Red Sox fans just quiet. I love the Red Sox,
- 52:38you Red Sox fan. I'm just announced that he's supporting Trump. I can't
- 52:43wait to really see how like the like the like the Yankee people that are
- 52:47just liberals feel about this because that's their hero. Like they literally love him.
- 52:53I think a lot more than you know, uh, Jeeter or obviously
- 52:58a Rod or are all the guys that grew up in those that late nineties.
- 53:02I've met Bernie Williams. Bernie never really he never officially retired from league
- 53:07baseball. He like plays the guitar. Now, yeah, yeah, I
- 53:10met him while he's playing the guitar. Yeah yeah, that's cool. Was
- 53:15he nice? Super nice? I have a photo of him. I met
- 53:19you too. I met Jeter too. I met Joe Tory. Okay,
- 53:22okay, I just kind of like shook his hand. Wasn't really a big
- 53:25deal. But this is I met to Shia and yeah, yeah, Mark,
- 53:31I'm a Red Sox man. My my friend's dad's like a big Heineken,
- 53:35so we always got the legend tickets. But now Red Sox Padoya has
- 53:39my heart. He's my he should be a Hall of Famer. He won't
- 53:44be I know, I mean he's one of the m v P and Jeter
- 53:46never has. Yeah, there was just a che was the Hall of Famer,
- 53:52don't get me wrong, but like he was a playoff player. That's
- 53:55where he got all. That's why, you know, like Ortiz was obviously
- 53:59a Hall of Famers. Oh yeah, he's so much more known for his
- 54:01player ways than anything else. All right, we're gonna finish on this little
- 54:07public service announcement for some of my friends. Uh, definitely not naming names
- 54:15because you know, I don't. You know, it's like you and wilcos
- 54:16you're not gonna don't have police standing outside of this store. But Target,
- 54:22oh yeah yeah, Target has a new policy change now where we actually talked
- 54:27about this before we thought this already existed. I thought so so at their
- 54:31self checkout lines where they have been just getting crushed by theft. I mean,
- 54:39you go to Target at them all and it's it's I don't go often,
- 54:45but it's literally frustrating because it's only the they have like nine lanes of
- 54:51like if like if you're a stopping shop, no one's in them, like
- 54:53no one's working them. Yeah, you just have the four self checkout ones
- 54:59and then you stually two of those are fucking broken. I'm always procu so
- 55:02it's like, dude, what the fuck. So I have some acquaintances again
- 55:08not not naming them that might uh swipe something and it doesn't swipe like it
- 55:15doesn't register, but it goes in their bag anyway. And I have never
- 55:21done this myself, but I've seen where I've been in that checkout line and
- 55:27it's not like stopping shot where they weigh your items after you scan them.
- 55:34This one annoys me. I'm off Target a little bit here, but this
- 55:36one annoys me about like the ones that weigh the ship. Yeah, I'll
- 55:40go to put my bag down, I know, I know, and they're
- 55:45like I'm like wait a second, So then I wait till the end to
- 55:49bag it. That's what I do. I'm not kidding. I put the
- 55:53backdown first, I swipe it, and then I put the bag down first
- 55:58with the items like right, yeah, So I'm like because I'm like,
- 56:01I'm gonna put everything down and then get my bag and then bag it.
- 56:06Like does that makes sense anyway? Yeah? He said, I don't think
- 56:10Target has the weighing thing. I guess not. And they they came out.
- 56:15It was like a couple. It was like a month ago. They
- 56:16came out with something that they were trying to fight this. So now they're
- 56:21putting cameras on all the self checkout things and with whatever. So now it's
- 56:29just making it harder, which is fine. You own the business, you
- 56:31gotta you know, I'm sure they have insurance for all this, that ship,
- 56:34but whatever. So I'd sent out a message to these people and I
- 56:40showed him the article and became kind of joking back and forth. But in
- 56:45one of the text back I got was that this person had a friend that
- 56:52had a boyfriend that was that works security at a target and says they have
- 56:57facial recognition face recognition every time you walk in the target, and if you
- 57:07don't steal enough to make it a felony, which is in this state,
- 57:12nine hundred dollars maybe I'm not really sure or maybe national number. I think
- 57:15it's around nine hundred or one thousand. They don't bother. So I wrote
- 57:21back, is it commulative or is it you know still time you go?
- 57:28No, Yeah, can I steal eight hundred nine nine dollars every time and
- 57:30they won't touch me? Or because it's facial recognition. If I steal one
- 57:35hundred this day, next day, just like sitting up there like like add
- 57:38the numbers. Yeah, yeah, she takes eighty bucks a day. We
- 57:44can stagger, you know, like and it's commulative. I did know that.
- 57:50Actually I have never shop lived in my life. I did know my
- 57:52life. But I have to do Target chare me. I'm fifty. You've
- 57:57got a lot of time to steal a pack of gum. Girl. I
- 58:00don't need to steal that. I need to dive. But I'm like,
- 58:02and I really gotta wait behind seventeen people. I just I'm actually throwing a
- 58:07five dollar bill on a fucking countertop because I'm like, I'm just like here,
- 58:10this is what I got. It's a dollar yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 58:15no I get that. But yeah no, I didn't know that.
- 58:19I didn't know that. That's that's like crazy. And I want to I
- 58:22want to get a Target security guard on here, and I wish I want
- 58:27to. I wanted like I want to see the big board. Yeah,
- 58:29I want to see how any names you know on that big board? Yeah,
- 58:31because like like let alone the people I know, like everyone pays like
- 58:37a lot of those you can't even pay cash, so you're you're literally putting
- 58:40into their system. Oh yeah, I always pay cash there, but some
- 58:45of them you can't. Yeah, some of them like or if they're like
- 58:46kind of broken, you have to use credit card or yeah, yeah,
- 58:50yeah yeah. I was in there a couple of weeks ago and I bought
- 58:52a hundred it was like one hundred and twelve dollars, and I used my
- 58:55debit card and it got not decline. It just got me rejected. So
- 59:00I put it again and it got rejected again. I'm like, what the
- 59:04fuck, So then I put I hate putting it on a credit card,
- 59:07so I put on my credit card. It went through. So I walk
- 59:09out to my car, I go to my bank account on my phone.
- 59:13Sure enough, I got charged on my credit card and once on my debit
- 59:17card. So I was in a hurry. I was rushing around and said,
- 59:21I was just coming back tomorrow. I'll save the receipt whatever. So
- 59:23I came back to it. Well, no, actually, you're right.
- 59:25I waited two days to see if it was but it it just got taken
- 59:30out weird, so it never went away. So I went back, went
- 59:34to the front desk and lady was like, I had the call over probably
- 59:38three people to fu and then so she literally took my receipt and typed in
- 59:45the receipt number and voided everything I bought and then replenished my credit card.
- 59:52So I ended up still don't take out of and I just never fucked with
- 59:54a debit card. So I'm like, why, why does this even?
- 59:58How does this happen? Though? You know, like that's weird, Like
- 1:00:02you're taking my bunny you didn't clear transaction? Yeah what, Yeah, I'm
- 1:00:07confused. Is this is how you're making enough for all my friends? Yeah?

- 1:04:06host the oscars? Uh Kimmel, Yeah, another one I don't like.
- 1:04:11Really this guy again, like they're they're there. I think they're funny in
- 1:04:15their own right, like Kimmel's another one. He started like he used to
- 1:04:17do the Man Show. You probably don't never even heard of it. It
- 1:04:23was it was him and Adam Correll, okay and Adam Carolla, sorry,
- 1:04:28Adam Corolla and Jimmy Kimmel, and the show started and or ended on uh,
- 1:04:35boobs on trampolines or something, and it was just like girls with big
- 1:04:39boobs jumping on trampolines. Like that's like how dumb his show was back And
- 1:04:43now he's like mister like political like correctness. See, I don't like that,

- 1:05:05but I think he likes the Yankees. I did read that because I
- 1:05:09Fever Pitch I love, and I thought the same thing. But I think
- 1:05:12he actually likes the Yankees maybe. So, you know, he's like Adam
- 1:05:15Sandler. Like a lot of his movies. He wears like Boston stuff.
- 1:05:18He does love England stuff. Yeah yeah, yeah, like just T shirts.
- 1:05:21Well, Grown Ups was filmed in Boston, I think, yeah,
- 1:05:25yeah, but it was like masks or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:05:29but he's probably yank he's a New York guy. Yeah. Isn't that
- 1:05:32weird Fever Pitch, you would think, yeah, but no, yeah,
