  Speaker 1: Just check the mail room. I've got a box. I
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: don't know who left this. There's a box of books
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: sitting out there by my corporate iHeartMedia mailbox. A box
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: of books. Now, they're in no particular style, they're various books,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: they're older books. And it's written on the box on
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: the top of the box with the flap open. It says,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: chuck share these books. But I can't tell who signed it,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: William Warren. I have no idea who left these books
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: out there for me to share. And I also have
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: a couple of Christmas cards in the box, just so
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Do you want me to bring it in case it's
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: like some sort of powder.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: No, If it's leave it out there, man, that's no.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: I don't need that. I don't need that. But it's
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: just weird to have a box of books out there
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: and not know. And they looked they had to be
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: brought in because there's no mailing label. It's not like
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: they came through the US mail. Plus the box is
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: incredibly heavy with all the books in it, so it
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: was must have been delivered here somebody hand delivered. But
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: I have no idea you who, So if you want
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a book feel free to go up there to that
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: box and if any powder comes up. That was for
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: you too. A two at eight six A two y
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: W t V and A don't know about this porch pirate.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I just heard Allison in the news talking about the
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: police are, uh what does it? Did we know exactly
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: what they're doing about the porch pirates? I mean, do
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: we have like, uh, you know, police frigates that are
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: going to sail the seas of the city now and
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and stop the What are we doing to actually stop
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the porch pirates this holiday season? Because I don't know.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know what can be done until we actually,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: you know, arrest and and then prosecute and then and
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: then put people in jail.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Because it's a really update once there.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Oh you got an update on the porch pirates on
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: the books? Yeah yeah, just uh real quick, okay, I'm
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: listening new this morning. A police apartment in California is
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: taking an unusual approach to catch porn pirates red handed
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: porch pirates here porch poor and pirates are even worse.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: You don't want that porch poor and that brings down
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the home values.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: I've seen it a million times and I had to
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: I apologize.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: The whole Every year we see this, especially around holiday time.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: You know, Amazon's deliver and stuff, Walmart's delivering stuff. I'm
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: surprised the grocery delivery services people are stealing groceries quite frankly,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: but you know that would be feeding yourself or your family.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: That's practical, So people don't do that. They're looking for
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: cell phones, televisions and jely, and so the boxes get delivered,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: and then these yahoos sometimes actually follow the trucks. It's like, oh, ups, truck,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I'll just drive behind it, and when he drops a
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: box somewhere, I'll jump out of my car and get it.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: And every now and then you see a video where
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: what them slips on ice and breaks their leg or something.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: That's hilarious, but it is. It is the thing of
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: it is they're on camera. They know they're on camera.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: You got signs saying hey, you're on camera. They look
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: up at the camera. Sometimes they'll wave and say hi
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: mom or something like that, and then they take the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: box because nobody's going to do anything to them.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: And they know that if they can ply with COVID protocols,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: they would have their face covered, so they wouldn't have
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: to worry about it.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: And it's funny that they don't even do that. I mean,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and I spent the whole summer questioning these kids running
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: around with the hoodies and the hood up and the
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: ski mask on. And now now it's freezing out there
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: and people are walking around in shorts and undershirts. I
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: don't get that either. But they don't bother to hide
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: because they know nothing's going to be done. And people
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: will always say, here's what you gotta do. You got
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: to put a box up there and got dog poop
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: in it. Well, then what happens, Well, these crazy maniac
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: people that are stealing stuff, then they come back and like,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: you know, I'll set your porch on fire or something
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: because they're ticked off that you left them a box
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: of dog poop. So what are you supposed to do
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: with it? I don't. This is why I think, you know,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: rattlesnakes should be legal. I've said that before you go.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: That's just me. No, no, I actually, if I could
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: put like a pet rattlesnake in my car under the seat, yeah,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: go ahead, take that change out of the astray. You
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: go right ahead, because it's my car. Why shouldn't I
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: be able to keep a rattle snake in my car,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: can't have an electric fence around my yard. I think
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: the rules are just wrong, man. The rules are the
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: rules are there to favor the ruless, the lawless, not
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: to help me out. But I would love to know,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: you know, if there is a game plan what the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: actual effort is going to be to stop the porch
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: pirates this year, because I just don't see it happening.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: You ever had something stolen from the porch?
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: No, luckily, and I have a bunch of stuff that's
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: left out there, so I've never had any problem with it.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: So I think there's been twice when I've had something
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: delivered and I'll get the little thing, you know, this
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: package just been delivered, and I'll go to get it,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: and you know, even if it's ten minutes later, it's gone. Yeah.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm lucky. Maybe it's because I live kind of
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: out away from everything, so it's kind of hard to
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: find my street, so I don't maybe that's it. I
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: don't know, but I've been lucky.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I'm sick of the whole mindset. Other
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: people deserve my stuff more than I do. It's just
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: sick of it. And I've said many times I'm also
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: sick of the response that we get these days when
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: somebody steals something from you, Well, you could have had
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: it taken. Don't tell me what I could have done.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: This is America. I'm an American. I ordered some stuff
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: and they were dropping it at my house. I should
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: not have to make allowances because bad people do bad stuff.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I should be able to openly complain, prosecute, and go
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: after anybody who steals my stuff. But there's Karen's out
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: there that well, what you should have done is shut up.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I'm sick of you. Oh they took the change out
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: of your astray? Did you leave your car? Shut up?
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: It's my car. If I want it locked, I'll lock it.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: If I don't, I won't my car in my driveway.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: It's not theirs. Why is that such a hard concept
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: for people these days? Instead of having a problem with
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: the people that are stealing the stuff, they want to
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: give some sort of advice in life coaching to the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: people that got stuff stolen from them. Shut up. As
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: you can tell, I'm a little bit vibrant in my
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: opinion about this. So anyway, unless you don't know what.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: You've not seen any kind of report, any kind of
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: strategy report from the police department as far as what
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: they're going to be doing.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Nope, I don't even think it's a big enough significant
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: thing other than a news story that's like, hey, consumers, beware.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: I don't do you think the police are really trying
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: to watch for.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. No, that's what I'm saying. I
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: don't think. I don't know what, you know, unless a
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: shot spotter goes off, which again that's something else. There
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: was a device you could buy. It's like a big firecracker.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Put the box on the porch, and when they opened
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: the box, there's an explode, like a big firecracker going off.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: But again, they get ticked off and come back and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: do something to you. And people are sick. They are crazy,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: They are nuts. These days. They're too scared to set
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the porch on fire or bust out your window. Well,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: you know, let's hope your little doggie's not out in
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the yard taking a poo poo or something, because they
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: may hurt the doggie. You don't know, You don't know,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: and they feel like they've got free reign to do this.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Kind of stuff because nobody stops them from doing other stuff.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: And then we wonder why, well, crime seems to be
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: up in the area, that's because you didn't prosecute all
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the crime that was happening when crime wasn't up in
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: the area. Or maybe that's just me A two one
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: ninety eight six A two one WUTV. And before I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: get out of here, must talk about this woman in Pennsylvania.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: And I actually said a prayer. But she's a grand
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: she's a grandma, and I'm a granddaddy, so I kind
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: of identify with this last report I heard. They still
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: not found her. The sinkhole, as they refer to it
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: in the news, is apparently an opening to an abandoned mine,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: and they've had heavy equipment out there, cranes and so forth,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: and they were pumping oxygen down into the hole. They
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: said it was about a thirty foot drop, and I
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: guess they found a shoe, one of her shoes down
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: in the hole. Her car was found not far away.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Her grandchild was in the car, cold but safe and okay,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And apparently she was trying to find her lost cat.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: The speculation is that she somehow stepped in this This
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: sinkhole while looking for the cat. But here's here's here's
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: my hope. Okay, they found a shoe, according to the
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: media reports today, found her shoe at the bottom of
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: this hole. What they believe is her shoe, but not her.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking, I'm hoping, I'm praying she fell in that hole.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: And she said, Okay, I'm not climbing thirty feet straight
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: up with my old sixty four year old grandma legs.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Maybe I can find someplace in here, maybe another access,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: another entrance, act something. I'm hoping she's in there trying
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to find her way out. I don't know. But what
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: a story, What a story. We haven't had one of
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: these in a long time. We've had children in wells,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: We've had you know, people stuck. Where was that Peru
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: or the soccer team. I think it was got stuck
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: in a cavern or something like this. We haven't had
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: one of these in a while.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: And this was it Chili that the miners were.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm thinking, that Peru Chili. I do know.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: One of those guys came up and when they pulled
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: them up, his wife and his girlfriend where they're waiting
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: for her. Uh oh, yeah, I don't know if you'd
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: rather stay back down and the.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Might have gone right back down there. But I'm hoping
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: she's she is alive and trying to find her way out.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: But again, they've been piping in oxygen. I would assume
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: they're using sound. And here's the problem. The ground surrounding
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the sinkhole is apparently weakening because it's infill over the
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: top of this mine and it's there. They're going to
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: pull back some of the equipment, but I'm thinking, man,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: isn't a dog appropriate here? I hope they've used dogs,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: lowered the dogs down in there, and I would think
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the dogs might be able to search the minds a
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: lot faster than human beings could and maybe find her.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Hwo on nine and eighty six the
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: number ten you're standing, Well, let's get you on here.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: You're on six N double UCVN.

  Speaker 3: and all that. Yes, you can't file report. You go downtown.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: They make it seem like they're going out of their
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: way and you're inconveniencing them because they don't want you
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: to file report. Oh, you should try and file that report. Online.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Did you call the place? Yeah, I called police, and
• 10:51

• 11:16
  Speaker 3: If nobody answers before you can leave a message or
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: a callback number, you got to go through the whole
• 11:22
