Oh okay, back then they had to make it themselves.
Cheesecake factory didn't come around to nineteen seventy two. Just

Speaker 1 (01:24):
A woman of Florida got arrested for a personal and
nice officer to kidnap a woman who apparently married her
ex boyfriend.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
Oh damn, women are tripping right, that's an elaborate scheme.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Right now.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
She kidnapped a woman who married her ex boyfriend? Like,
what are you gonna do? Kill her? Like? What are
you thinking?

Speaker 3 (01:46):
The porter right? Drive across the border and leave her there,
take her license?

Speaker 1 (01:52):
You gotta go, But I'm citizen. You gotta go. That's
pretty elaborate. Or maybe it wasn't elaborate at all. Maybe
she just got a nice jacket, was like a go
for it. A man in plot was arrested after he
allegedly attacked an eleven year old girl he thought was
throwing eggs at his apartment. I'm like, whoa in this economy?

(02:16):
I feel like her parents should attack her. A man
in Nebraska named.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Lord a man and his name is Lord.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Huh and Nebraska, Jeff, you know Lord, not the Lord,
just Lord. He was arrested on Sunday. Police say he
was well, he was drunk driving and he was going
down the wrong way on a one way street. That's
that's the way to get pulled over.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
On Easter of all days.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Right, don't mind me, I'm just going the wrong direction.
It looks like the FDA is finally phasing out all
these artificial dyes. The dyes are used in a lot,
a lot, a lot of things that my kids eat,
that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Man.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Those flaming Cheetos, oh really, Oh dude, I got a
little leiary of those, oh about three four months ago.
My kids left them out just on the back porch,
like on the the sun. And dude, none of the chickens,
no insects, bother the ants, didn't even eat them, and

(03:20):
they just they just stayed there. And you know what,
I just kept leaving them there to see if they
would change. It's like the Twinkie we had. How long
we have that Twinkie here?

Speaker 3 (03:30):
It's at my house now, But I want to say
that's from twenty eleven, Like we had.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
A tweakie here. We just watched and it really didn't
change from the way it looked. Look wise, yeah, look wise,
it was hard as a brick. But dude, these cheetos
didn't either. I'm like, wow, what's in them things? Man?

Speaker 3 (03:48):
They just I'd like to try it without the flaming
hot part, because I feel like that might be a
deterrent for some animals. Sure, the regular ones though, game on. Yeah,
every animal should love a regular Cheeto.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
The flaming not Cheeto's, the Mountain Dew, Skittles, im and Ms,
pop Tars, kool Aid, Starbards, Twinkies, airheads, look at charms.
Even Nikul has that stuff in it.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
And I want to say, most of that stuff is
petroleum based. Yes, so they're pumping that out of the ground.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Maybe it is smart not to be putting it in
our bodies.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
I mean, you wouldn't believe the trash were putting in
their bodies. How about this man, this is every parent's nightmare.
Uber driver drives away with this woman's five year old
kid now her and her boyfriend together. They have four
kids together. It's one scenarios where they pull up to
their house, a couple of kids asleep. Okay, they have

(04:44):
some things they're unloading, so it takes a couple of
trips to get the kids in.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
All right, all right, I get you.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
So she takes one of the kids to a sleep
into the house. The man gets the other kids out,
he grabs the other kid that will sleep in or
that the other stuff that they were have the five
year olds in the very back road, third row seating.
She's asleep. The mom's coming back to get the other
kid to sleep. Well, the Uber driver just takes off. Oh,

(05:14):
with the kid in the car a sleep And what's
really interesting You read through the story and apparently she
comes out she's like, why why did why do you
leave with with my daughter? Why do you leave with
her in the car? After the terrifying incident involving the
Uber ride and her young daughter, The woman says Uber

(05:36):
customer support refused to contact the driver and involved the
driver in the incident. Oh, the five year old was
in the car.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
That's a bad look right there.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Police told uh CBC Toronto that they tracked down the
driver with zero help from the ride share company. She
was stunned and basically in disbelief. And apparently an Uber
representative refused to help the Toronto Police contact the driver

(06:07):
as well.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Even you would think that the police call would get
some sort of.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Saints the police that all we wanted from them was
to contact the driver. There was all this puretic red tape.
There was not a purse or a phone left behind.
It was a five year old child on a winter night.
Police did arrive after Juliet called nine to one one.

(06:35):
An officer called Uber to get contact information for the driver.
A representative for the right sharing company refused to provide
the info to the cops. To the state police or
whatever their state police is, yeah, or the mom and
the Uber statement. Uber's staff says they followed the standard protocols.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Protocols.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Maybe, how funny is this? They told the cops to
go through the app.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
I used the appy. Hope that you get that driver right?

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Who says the staff followed these standard protocols which are
designed to protect privacy of safety of both riders and drivers.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Wild dude, So they're telling the cops, oh, if you
I mean, the driver was in the wrong for taking
off with the kid.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
But I'm guessing he didn't know the kid was there.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
No, he didn't, and.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
It wasn't his fault that they couldn't get ahold of him.
So what do you give him as a rating? Do
you give him a one?

Speaker 1 (07:45):
I mean, the dude drove off with the kid in
his car? Yeah, yeah, I'm laving that kid as a
child thief man, like he's stealing babies. Brother, he's gonna
get a negative one, like yeah, yeah, I'm gonna trash
pretty good. A Brooklyn man admitted he was running a

(08:07):
cocaine delivery service. Now, I wanted this story because it
says this Michael quartercause this guy's name is ridiculous. Anyway,
he sold quote a significant quantity of cocaine to investigators
multiple times, including four instances in which two ounces of

(08:29):
cocaine were sold. Now, he also was found When they
found this dude, they found it with a key love
of cocaine which is two point two pounds apparently a coke,
an undisclosed amount of MDMA, which police found hidden in
a secret compartment inside of his Mercedes Benz known as

(08:53):
the trap. Uh they can want to say. When they
rated this dude's house, they recovered thirty eight thousand, five
hundred and fifty dollars in cash, thirty nine gold coins
oh okay, estimated at over one hundred thousand dollars ooh,
and ready for this, they seized over four hundred thousand

(09:19):
dollars from this dude's bank. This guy's bank account Damn.
This dude was selling a lot of cocaine.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
They're probably looking at him and they're like, so you
don't have a job, right, I think that's justification to
take all the cash in your.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Four hundred Dude, Why do you got four hundred thousand
dollars in a bank account? Man with no job? I
love the fact that his Mercedes Benz was known as
the trap. The trap, all right. So this woman she
went to this guy that won the lottery, this poor guy. Man.
You read this story about this guy and man, this

(09:58):
is another one of those good intention stories. He was
a homeless man, right, and he won. I want to
say he won thirty million dollars in the lottery.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
Good, Right, that's a big haul for a homeless guy.
Well for anybody, what I'm gonna say anybody, that's a
big hall. But this dude named Abraham Shakespeare, right, he
was doing day laborer stuff when he actually won. He
was working a job for eight dollars an hour. Right,
He never finished high school. He became a multi millionaire overnight.

(10:32):
He had five bucks that he got from doing his
day labor job. And I guess he went into a
comedian store bought a lottery ticket and it hit for
thirty million dollars.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
In walks this girl named Doris D. D Moore. She
sounds shady, does uh? Yeah, yeah, this is Doris D.
D Moore. Uh huh, I don't think so. Anyway, Listen
what this dude did when he hit jackpot two thousand
and six. He's been working for eight bucks an hour,

(11:04):
he had five bucks in his pocket. He bought a
quick pick at a convenience store. Two days later, he's
holding up the big check. Now. He opted for the
lump sum. Oh wow, so it was a thirty million
dollar jackpot. What do you think he brought home in Florida.
I don't think there's taxes in Florida. Okay, So in Florida,

(11:25):
no taxes.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
Lump sum probably little more than half, so probably about
fifteen I'll go seventeen.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Yeah, that's what he brought home. He opted for the
payout seventeen million instead of the one point five million
a year for two decades. Okay, So that's the other
way he could have got the money. So he started
handing out money to his friends, his acquaintances. He paid
people's mortgages off, He gave his stepfather a cool million dollars.

(11:59):
He even paid burial expenses for strangers in his community.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
I mean, he was doing a lot of good with it,
but he had.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
No seventeen million will go really fast if you're given
a million here and a million there.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
He was so generous, generous with his money. He was
known for paying for I mean, there's a laundry list,
paid for people's rent, the groceries, funerals, anything that anybody needed,
said Melissa Green, a reporter at the local newspaper. So
this woman, Doris D. D Moore, contacted him in two

(12:35):
thousand and nine, and it looks like this woman took
control of his assets and claims she could get his
finances under control by helping him collect from his debtors
and a few other people. Now, by this time, this
poor man had already spent eleven million dollars of his

(12:55):
seventeen million dollar prize money.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
So six million left.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Huh Yeah, and she took it all out. Yes, she
concocted a plan involving acquainting of hers somebody who had
done her bidding in the past, and basically took it
for all his money, killed the man and then tried
to bury him, and unfortunately they couldn't pit it on

(13:20):
her until listen to this, an informant told Moore that
he had a cousin, Remember this D. D. Morchik an
informant that means a guy working for the cops. Told
Moore that he had a cousin headed a prison on
drug charges that he would take the murder rap if
she did something against Michael Shakespeare. So she gave this

(13:45):
man fifty thousand dollars. That's what he would charge for
taking the murder.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
Rap, so to take the fall.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Okay, yeah, So they went to meet up with this cousin,
who's actually an undercover officer. She had fifty thousand dollars
in cash. She gave him the gun that was used
to kill this Michael Shakespeare guy and the address to
where his body was, and then boom, she got arrested.

(14:12):
Oh shady, she's all Man Smith and Wesson is what
she used.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
In case you're wondering, Oh yeah, I did a Google
search on her just to see she pops up in
a lot of spots.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
I bet she does.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
But I believe they're making a twenty twenty special out
of this.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
Oh really, yeah, you'll be able to see the whole story.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Poor guy was just you know, living a good life,
taking care of everybody. Oh, you're my friend. Here's a
hundred thousand, here's a hundred thousand. Yeah, he burned to
eleven million dollars in like a year. He bought himself
a million dollar home, and he bought himself a new car.
Other than that, he gave gave away the rest of it.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Let's hope he was happy during that year.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
I'm sure he was a former substitute teacher in Florida
facing felony charges after she allegedly well encouraged two middle
school students to fight each other.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
Oh, normally we'll fight club.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Normally, teachers try to, you know, de escalate a situation
right way, let's calm down, let's you know, talk this through.
But nope, not this one. So apparently Taysia Holmes, she
got arrested after a parent was a parent was showing

(15:34):
videos this video of her child's cell phone of an
in class altercation between two students the day before. The
video appears to show Homes holding back one student who
is being taunered by another as both the students continue
to argue and sort of swinging one another. Homes is

(15:56):
heard in the video telling them to deal with their
deal with their issues outside of the parking lot. She's like, look, look, look,
y'all go outside and fight this out. Not doing this here,
y'all go outside of parking lot and fight.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
I'm actually okay with her her reasoning there. Take this
out of the classroom. That's basically all she was saying,
get this out of the classroom.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yeah, but kids.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Are trying to read here.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Yeah. Unfortunately, you can't encourage kids to go outside to
fight or take it outside to the parking lot. You
don't encourage children to fight. A department spokesperson said Holmes
was resting in charge of two counts of chid neglecting
eight counts a contributing the delinquency of a minor. She

(16:44):
was released on a thirty five thousand dollars bond. Yikes,
I guess they're not playing with that. Yeah, Luke, you
couldn't have a fight club, but you kind of can.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
I kind of recall them not encouraging us to fight,
but encouraging there was a spot where the fights went
down that was not patrolled.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
I mean, it's funny. Me and Monica had this conversation
the other day. I said, sometimes you gotta fight, right, right,
you know, and she was like, no, no, no, no,
there's no time you have to fight. I'm like, no, no,
there's sometimes you just you know, you just have to fight,
especially if it's fist to fist. That's a different level,

(17:36):
right exactly.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
But the whole high tipted murder, the whole hierarchy of
high school and figuring out where your place.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Is, elementary, junior, high, high school. It's gonna happen, right
or if here's what I would tell you. If it
does not happen, chances are you were picked on, you know,
and and chances are it only didn't not happened because
you didn't you know, you didn't stand up for yourself.

(18:05):
Because there's gonna be people to push it.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Right, It's just you know, this.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Is part of it. My teachers would encourage us go outside.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Right.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
We had a spot where it went down.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
Like something like this back in the day. I don't
think that person would have gotten fired. Oh not a chance. No,
take it outside, take it the smoking seecond. That's where
ours was. The smoking section was sort of the they're
gonna fight.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
That's where you're going.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
We had a place, yeah, smoking section, we had to
smoking smoking sections, and that that was oftentimes a place
where people go fight. There was a big field between
our high school and the Pigley Wiggly everybody used to
hang out and you know, cruise through or whatever, and

(18:47):
that big field was always the spot. It's like, all right,
it was our school grounds. Everybody could easily get there.
It's where you went to throw down, all right. Finally,
at thirty seven year it this toy is whacked, dude,
this story is crazy. Now every family is supposed to

(19:07):
have one bad apple. This family got a couple of
thirty seven year old dude named Christopher Banks. He got
arrested in New York for child pornography. He lives with
his older brother in a small town A ninevah all right,
ninevah anyway, cop raid of their home sees their electronics.
Never a good thing, no, so the brother's thirty eight

(19:29):
year old cat named Mark Banks. He's now in a
bunch of trouble too, because while cops were searching their gadgets,
they came across an old video of Mark and Mark
was Mark was getting it on with a cow.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Oh Mark, Mark and I'm not.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
I'm not talking in the you know and the sort
of satires sort of appro I'm telling you he would
with a real cat, like a real murder like uh,
I'm not saying that he was with a woman that
would be considered a cat. Now it's real. He actually

(20:15):
had to write a written statement of gobs. He said
he worked on a farm for twenty two years and quote,
you had to imagine being a thirty eight year old
dude having to write this. Damn all right. He said,
when I was younger, I had sex with a cow.

(20:36):
That's what he wrote. He said, when I was younger,
I had sex with a cow. And he said he
blamed on urges and claimed that's the one time thing.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
And he videotaped it.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Well, because is that what they found? Yeah, yeah, him
on a video of it. Like I don't know if
he videoed it or his brother.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Did somebody video does some.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Person named the video camera towards what was going on
with a cow and this quote quote one time thing. Yeah,
he's facing up a year in jail. His brother is
facing four years in jail. They both have the register
of sex fenders. If convicted. I think the video is
sure fireproof.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
Come on, Mark Man, I mean, come on.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
His brother, well that sounded uh. His brother got arrested
for child phoography. Both of them have problems, but damn
a cow
