Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, you music nerds, this one's for you. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. We've got a fun game that we play every once in a while in this show called Riff It Around. Yes. I don't know if I like the intro for it or the game more, because both are great. Well, my favorite is when the intro hits, we all just go, oh no. Get out of our chairs. The digital jake has to move the cameras.
Starting point is 00:00:21 It's a whole ordeal. It is a whole ordeal. You never know it's coming. I don't know why, but you have to stand up to play this game. You do. You got to lock in. It feels better. The focus.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Yes. So that's all the way. Second date. Of course, your prank phone calls, your phone tabs, but first comments. Yeah. 258 Firebirds said, question. How do two or more of you guys get shocked if you only have one shot caller? Great question.
Starting point is 00:00:44 It's called electric currency. Yeah. So the dog shot collar, if you've never seen one, has two metal prongs. And then we put our fingers on those prongs. Yeah. And it travels through us. Yeah. So when it's multiple, we don't wear it on our neck.
Starting point is 00:00:56 We take it off. Hold it all together. Yeah. We've tried to squeeze multiple of us in one collar, didn't we're. I'm trying to talk to engineering to get us a ground, like a pole, a metal pole. We can all go out. Yeah. We can all just hold it and zap it.
Starting point is 00:01:09 I think we could hurt somebody though. More to think about that. Well, I think if you're grounded, then you don't get zapped. Regardless, I want a poll installed in the studio. Okay. That's what it came down to. Yeah. We got the real truth.
Starting point is 00:01:21 All right. Last to the real show, it starts now. Just when you thought you were finally desensitized to weird TikTok. food trends. Oh, no. This happens. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Don't make us try it, please. Alexis, you're a big Starbucks fan, right? You'll try pretty much
Starting point is 00:01:39 any new drink that they put out. I mean, yeah, I'll try them. Okay, well, this isn't Starbucks officially, but there is a trend on TikTok right now where people are putting green onions into their coffee. Oh my God. I saw this, and it is more intense than I Like, I thought maybe they just sprinkle some.
Starting point is 00:01:59 What is the reason? No, like spring onions. Like chis. Okay. Supposedly this started in China, and the most common preparation is for a latte. So you put some chopped green onions into a glass, muddle them up, add ice, milk, and a couple shots of espresso. And then you garnish it on top with even more green onions. Don't say, ew.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Well, coffee and onion breath combined sounds disgusting. Yeah, just those garlic in there. I don't want to hear complaining. You remember the last time when I had Ashley come in here with ketchup kit cats? I will have her serving up onion coffee so fast. Do not make me do it. You will not pay for our latte. I'll make you pay for it.
Starting point is 00:02:43 I mean, Ashley was a barista. She could do this for us. I will say almost everybody who's tried, it says it's definitely an acquired taste. The video I saw, the guy said this is disgusting and I don't know why people would do this. Yeah, that's the same statement. That's what people say. when they try like beer and alcohol for the first time, but by the 400th cup, you're actually starting to like it.
Starting point is 00:03:03 You don't need to force yourself to like onion coffee. If it's cool, yes, you do. Yes, if it's trending, you have to get into it. Some people say they don't really understand it because onion doesn't absorb into the latte, so at some point you're just going to end up with a giant mouthful of onions. Oh, it's going to clog your straw? Yeah, that's why you should do garlic coffee instead, obviously. We're going to talk about that one on our night.
Starting point is 00:03:27 next show. But now we have to move on and get into the shot color question of the day and toss it over to the man who stepped in for me and called my mother on Mother's Day. Jake, thank you for your sacrifice. In 1885, German engineer Carl Benz was credited with inventing the first practical automobile powered by an internal combustion engine. And 40 years later, on this very day, he founded the Mercedes-Benz car company. One of the most recent. respected automakers in the entire world. Seriously? And Germany was a great place forever.
Starting point is 00:04:03 But, you know, that's their legacy. Germans can invent other things, too, besides just cars. They're very innovative. And today you're going to have to decide if these creations are really from Deutschland or not in a special German or no German, Belanti of 20. So I'll give you the name of a famous invention. You have to tell me if it originally,
Starting point is 00:04:27 came from Germany or if it's from somewhere else by saying your best German accent, German or no German. Okay. We'll begin with the woman who puts the word brat in Bratworth. Oh. That's Alexis. I take that as compliment. Yeah, you should.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Alexis, your invention is gummy bears. Oh. These chewy colorful candies were invented by a man named Hans Regal. German or no German? Whoa. I mean, the gummy bears there do taste like hair. Herbo there tastes way better than it does in the U.S. Isn't Harlow from Germany?
Starting point is 00:05:01 I think it is, I think it says like something. You've had it in Germany from like the source. Like the gummies taste way, yeah, yeah, yeah, they taste way better there. I think it is Jomon. Jammann? Is that Walt Barlow? A little Jamaican. Alexa says German, that is...
Starting point is 00:05:18 Hey! That's correct. Yeah, Hans Regal is the founder of Haribow. I know my gummy bears! Right, not your accents, but gummy bears, you got that. Let's go to Brooke. Okay. Your invention is the hot air balloon.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Invented by Greta Gutiser, who thought, why walk when you can float above it all in a giant flying picnic basket? Is that German or no German? Man, the thing about the hot air balloon is it seems too leisurely to me to be German. You know, like, I feel like German inventions. I mean, they did do the gummy bears, though. But I feel like, for the most part, the very logical, I'm going to say, Das is nine German.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Oh, boy. Wow. She knows she needs to take German. Brooke says no German. That is... Wow. No German. Hot air balloons were invented by the French,
Starting point is 00:06:06 and I just made up that woman's name. We're over to Jose now. We're two for two. Jose, your invention is the Dutch oven. It was... That's a technique, Jake. That's not a thing. Originally a German cooking pot.
Starting point is 00:06:19 It's now a practical joke, played by partners who think gross humor is timeless and hilarious, but is the Dutch oven German or no German? That's what you should say first. Like, hey, honey, you ought to visit Deutschland? Now, Das is German.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Why would they call it a Dutch oven if it was German? Could it be like a Dutch immigrant into Germany invented it? Oh, situation. Or maybe they thought it was wimpy, so they called it a Dutch oven. Dude, those things are so heavy, though. I have a Dutch oven pot,
Starting point is 00:06:46 and it's like, it weighs a lot. You think the tiny Dutch oven weighs a lot? Oh, you're poor woman. I just feel like maybe my brain can't wrap my head around it. I'm going to say it's too, it needs to stay simple. So no, I think it's from Holland. I'm going to say, not Dazas German. Jose says no German. That is. No German is from the Netherlands. Oh, the Netherlands, yeah. We're over to Jeffrey. Your invention is the Christmas tree. Yay! The modern holiday tradition came from a man named Klaus Schnitzelheimer who's credited with decorating the first evergreen tree.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Is that German or no German? German. Germans celebrate nothing. There is a lot. There is Is no Christmas tree in Germany, Jake? Mine German. He says no German. That is. Incorrect. It's German. It's believed to originate it in Germany in the 16th century.
Starting point is 00:07:37 These are lies! I like that we were, like, yelling, but then also they made gummy bears and Christmas trees. They're all over the place. We're at cuckoo clocks. Oh, and those? Over to Alexis. Your invention is Bluetooth. Oh.
Starting point is 00:07:52 It was invented by a man named Fritz von Flauzen, so we can. could go hands free on the Audubon. Is that German or no German? I mean, they are going fast. And I'm also thinking, like, I'd want Bluetooth headphones. They bike a lot, too. You know, I'd want to be able to use those on my bike all the time. I'll say German.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Again, just a tiny bit Caribbean. Alexa says German, that is no German. It was invented by the Dutch because even in the land of tulips and windmills, people need wireless technology. Talk and free rail riding bikes Imagine Alexis being your tour guide in Germany I have one more German or non-German left Brooke and Jose who wants the opportunity to play for sudden death
Starting point is 00:08:35 Iskomen mitain bus? Oh wow I don't know with that Brooke if you get this right You win if you get it wrong then Jose win I think she's coming on to you there too I'm careful I have enough mothers to worry about Your invention is kindergarten invented by a man named Friedrich Freubel in 1837.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Is that German or no German? I'm going to say just the word itself sounds German. Kindergatat is German. Brooke says German. That is German. That's German. That means Brooke, you've won the German or no German that they should have. All right.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Plenty of 20. That's extinct. Whatever. So since Brooke won, she gets to choose who gets shocked today. while they're singing every time we touch by Cascada. I'm going to give it to Alexis for her terrible German accent. I knew the Ganymer. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Yeah, she should have been the crab from the little mermaid. Because every time we touch, I get this feeling. And every time we kiss, I swear I could buy. That is your shock color question of the day. If you do an internet search right now for the funniest novelty items to purchase, you'll find things like the yodeling pickle. I like that. And the burrito blanket.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Oh, yeah. Those are popular. Big blanket designed to look like a giant tortilla. It's cute when you can wrap up your animals in them. Like a little burrito, like cats and stuff. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. But every once in a while, one of these joke gifts sells so well that other companies start saying,
Starting point is 00:10:17 huh, maybe we should manufacture that for real. And that just happened with bacon-flavored dryer sheets. Wait, they're actually... Not scented, but flavored. Yeah, flavor. Just chew on for a while. Let's spit it out. It's a product that was already being made as a gag gift,
Starting point is 00:10:39 but the company Benton, who's known for their smokehouse items, thought we could actually do it a lot better. And so they started making them, They're calling them smoke sheets where they take regular organic cotton dryer sheets and hang them up in their bacon house for two full days to absorb the scent of bacon and applewood. Could you imagine like crawling into clean sheets taking a big whiff and you just smell like you're in a frying pan? It sounds actually kind of nice. Oh, bro. I don't know if I woke up to bacon sheets.
Starting point is 00:11:10 That's a nice sense. This is like whatever the opposite of fresh linen scent is. Their CEO said we've had so many customers over the years tell us that they love smelling or fresh-cut bacon. Why not infuse it directly into your clothes? So gross. Imagine Alexis going on a run and your feet start to sweat and you smell like bacon. It just feels like it's going to give you a rash. Or a set of 10 bacon-flavored dryer sheets will cost you $75.
Starting point is 00:11:39 It's a pretty steep price tag. So it's a rich scent on top of all. of this. It's actual bacon. Or if you want to do it the Brooke Foxway when you're ready to do your laundry,
Starting point is 00:11:48 just dump a cup of cooked bacon bits into your dryer. It'll come out a little bit greasy, but same yummy effect. And if you have the liquid only one,
Starting point is 00:11:56 the bacon grease works there. She's taught me, yeah. Now I'm hungry. Just in time for laser stories coming up. Next. It's the radio segment that's getting your hair
Starting point is 00:12:10 clean with a meaty summer vibe. Ew, I'm meaty. Introducing shampubicu sauce. Get your soft, silky hair with a smoky mesquite shine. I'm with a lick it dry, Jeff. It also comes in coconut curl and Carolina Reaper, thanks to laser stories. Spicy.
Starting point is 00:12:30 The segment where we read weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone else does, except we've got a laser. Those other charcoal couture kids just don't. Carcole couture. Why are so many bees by my head? First laser stories out of the Splashy Spring Symposium. The New York Times recently did a big feature on how rich people are moving on from fine wine. Oh, they are.
Starting point is 00:12:52 And now getting in on fine water. Oh, la la. What? A writer for the Times recently went to a fine water competition where six judges or water somaliers. Stop it. Blind taste tested 107 different types of mineral water from all over the world. Wow. I really have become a water snob.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Like Evian first than Fiji. See, I'm tap. I would be more interested in this if it was tap from different parts of the country. You know what I mean? I would have assumed Brooke was gutter, so you know what? That's a big step up for you. Like wine, they say each type of fine water has a distinct taste. Depending on where it comes from and the mix of minerals it has.
Starting point is 00:13:37 Some of them now go for hundreds of dollars per bottle. Oh, my God. So if you have an old Fiji, preferably the year 2015, stuck in the back of your garage fridge, you could be rich. He's aging in a plastic bottle that's seeping plastic into it. But why does a 20-year-old Dasani sound awful? No, I'm just kidding. Most of these waters, I'm sure you've never been heard of before. Including the winter this year that consisted of melted snow, which had been filtered through Peruvian volcanic rock.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Yes! Yes! Yes! God, thank God it's not North American volcanic rock. Yeah, gross. The judges also taste tested one made of mist, gathered from a pine forest in Tasmania, but sadly they came in 14th,
Starting point is 00:14:23 right behind a bottle of Desani that was purchased at a Newark airport. Ah, see, there we go. It's stories like this that make it so hard to like rich people. Yeah, I know. Anyway, the idea of fine water isn't new, but it's becoming a lot trendier, especially because people are drinking less alcohol than they used to. Plus, some people are even converting their old wine cellars into water cellars now.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Now I don't know about that. This next laser story is out of Tren Town. I have a question for the room. Would you be for or against showers with grandma? I've fallen and I can't get up. Not like for fun if he needed help in the shower. At this point it's showers with my mom. I mean, how old are we?
Starting point is 00:15:07 Are we adults when we're doing this? Are we kids? Okay, it's just a simple question. Yes or no. There's a lot of layers. You don't need that much. Because it might not be what you're thinking. Apparently, there's a new trend of baby showers for the grandparents.
Starting point is 00:15:22 For the new grandparents. Okay, we're not actually getting naked with our grandparents. This is a present party. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but no, this is about giving gifts to grandparents for an incoming baby. Oh, man. There's plenty of websites where you can find that other stuff that you want. So why is this a thing? Some people say grandma showers are a heartwarming way to honor a new chapter in life.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Others say it's inappropriate and even a little narcissistic. In fact, some people believe a grandma shower shifts the focus away from the actual parents. Yeah. It would be like if I was pregnant, my mom would have a shower. Yes. Which feels like your mom showing up in a white dress to your wedding. Yeah. I think she might do both.
Starting point is 00:16:06 things. A bigger issue could be that this is yet another party that friends and relatives might feel obligated to attend with a gift. If you get pregnant, you gotta give the grandma a gift, the mom a gift. They'll do free babysitting though. Hey! That's a good. You gotta live close to him. That's the trade off. Let's be honest, some are feeling gifted out by all of these new celebrations that are popping up,
Starting point is 00:16:31 especially since many people treat showers as a way to help first-time parents with the onslaught of extra expenses. Yeah, you're not even supposed to have a shower if it's your second or third baby. Yeah. You can have a sprinkle is what they're called now. Where you're not asking for expensive gifts, but maybe people give some cute clothes or some books or whatever, right? Well, regardless, this is happening.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Grandma showers are a real thing and it's trending. Okay. This next laser story is out of Filmland. Ew, that's fun. Movigowers at AMC theaters are in for a rude, awake, starting next month. A few commercials and coming attractions before a movie begins,
Starting point is 00:17:11 that's pretty much expected. Yeah. But soon enough, AMC will be delaying the start times of movies even more. I went 30 minutes after I said it would start and it still haven't started. What the way? That's awful.
Starting point is 00:17:25 Yeah, yeah. What the heck? So where will the added commercial or commercials go? Uh-oh. Right before the movie begins. Oh, I thought you're going to say right in the middle. I mean, at some point,
Starting point is 00:17:36 They're going to start having intermissions with commercials. You are so right. This is like right before it says feature presentation, and the advertiser will pay AMC a premium for that starting time. Dude, it's not like the theaters are swimming in cash, man. You know, nobody's going. They have to do something. So as you could imagine, people aren't happy about this.
Starting point is 00:17:58 The folks on Twitter went off. Oh. At Twitter. Crazy, because usually people on Twitter are so positive. They never like to rant complain. One said, I show up to every movie 30 minutes after the start time. It's always exactly as the movie is beginning. But now what time should I show up?
Starting point is 00:18:16 45 minutes early, an hour early, three days early? Was that Alexis they interviewed? Probably. I don't mind going early and sitting through all the ads. The only... The only problem is my snacks are over by the time the movie starts. That's my issue. You're already asleep.
Starting point is 00:18:34 I just need a little loop up on the screen that says, go buy them now. Yeah. So when you book your next ticket online, make sure you budget in plenty of extra time for those extra commercials. Because that's starting on July 1st. Oh boy. Right. Time for all the summer hits. Your final laser story is out of Word World. I love this place.
Starting point is 00:18:56 You ever heard an uncommon word that catches your attention because it sounds like something naughty? Oh, yeah. But it's actually totally innocent. Yeah, what do you got, Jeff? A new study was done and it found the top words that sound somewhat erotic but aren't. And here's the top ones along with their actual meanings. Number three, dongle. And you're like, shut up.
Starting point is 00:19:17 What is a dongle? That's any device that can be plugged into a hardware port on a computer. It plugged the dongle in. Hardware. We're really going to struggle to get through these. Number two, gesticulate. That means to make or use hands. gestures, especially in an animated manner.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Jose gesticulates in front of us all the time. Hey, also my phone-up character, it's gesticulating. Now I know what I'm saying. And the number one word that sounds a little racy, but really isn't, is uvula. Yeah, that's just a little fleshy hanging ball in the back of your throat. There you go. You'll learn a little bit today about good words that sound bad, and now you can know about some bad sounds.
Starting point is 00:20:05 that feel oh so good. This guy is playing with a uvila inside of a converse sneaker. And he is loving every single minute of it. Look at him just articulating. That's right. That's exactly what he's doing. It means laser stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Same time on Monday. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I play the instrumental version. They name the song. It's riffing around. It should be easy, but somehow it's always a struggle. Yeah. We're in radio.
Starting point is 00:20:43 We're in the business of music. This is a segment where every listener yells at us. Yeah, they hate us. That's why, to help out my co-host today, I'm actually going to tell them one of the words in every single title. It's the word summer, because it's an all summer song edition of riffing around. Listen to see if you can beat our co-host. Probably not going to be that hard. We're going to do it coming up right after this.
Starting point is 00:21:11 It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. It's the hot new game show that makes our listeners wonder, how are these idiots qualified to work on the radio? I'm talking about riffing around. Oh, great. And today's game is all about summer. Okay, all right. I'm going to play a musical riff from a very famous song
Starting point is 00:21:33 that has the word summer included in the title. I couldn't possibly. make this easier for you guys. All you have to do is identify the correct title of that song. So let's get right to it. We already drew out of a hat and today Alexis, you're going to be going
Starting point is 00:21:50 first. Fun. So please Alexis, name this famous summer jam. I know it. Remember the word summer is in the title. I got that, Jeff. Okay. This one's a really popular one. We're saying the title
Starting point is 00:22:10 or not the artist? The title. Just guess any other word. There's only two words in the... Sunny summer. I'm sorry. Jose, can you steal it? It's... I don't like girls that wear Abercrombie and bitch.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Those are the lyrics and all we need is the title. That's right. Summer Girls by LFO. Came out in 1999. That was your theme song that summer that it came out. Oh my God. I had Bucashel's. I had bleached tins.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Jose's on the board with one. One correct. Let's go. And Jose, you're up next. Please, name this famous summer song. Oh, my gosh. J.T.
Starting point is 00:22:54 my guy. Oh, I know. Okay, yeah. I know. That's right. I know. It's a very popular song. Again, summer is in the title.
Starting point is 00:23:03 It's going to be. Do you have anything? I got to move on. Bring it to me. Not summer. No. She said love right before. Oh, darn it.
Starting point is 00:23:15 So one to one, Brooke and Jose. Oh, okay. This one should be an easier one for you because we tried to pick a summer song from your era. Just think back. I think you were maybe 12 when this came out. It was the song of the summer.
Starting point is 00:23:33 This may have been right when they discovered summer. But one of the most famous artists of all time. The tulips of summer. I'm sorry. Alexis, can you steal it? I don't know those old song. Summer sounds. Jose, I know your parents love this song.
Starting point is 00:23:51 I'm going to go with Summer Pound. Promenas. Oh, I'm sorry. The correct answer was Summer Wind by Frank Sinatra. Really disappointed on you on that one. I don't know any Frank Sinatra. We're back to Alexis for the second round.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Alexis, name this hit Summer Song. This one is a pretty recent song. I know. I recognize it. Very popular. Again, summer somewhere in the title. Thank you, Jeff. It's the other word I...
Starting point is 00:24:25 I'll tell you there's four words in this title. Four words. Yes. Summer, let's get. drunk. I don't know. I think you're just shouting out to your Tinder dates, but we're going to move on. Jose, can you steal it? I am. I sound like the weekend. What do you have? Lightninging lights in the summer. Yikes. All right, that was Demi Lovato, cool for the summer. We started off so hot. I know. Not me. I am not doing it over here. You're really cool and off
Starting point is 00:24:58 here. Jose, bring us back. We're going a little more old school for you. Okay. What do you think, Jose? Remember. Sounds like an 80s. Remember, the words. I'll tell you, you are right. It is an 80s. Okay. I'm in a good.
Starting point is 00:25:14 I don't. I don't talk about in this title. Okay. Brooke, can you steal it? Boys of Summer. That's correct. Don Henley. Three words in the title.
Starting point is 00:25:27 The Boys of Summer. That came out in 1984. Brooke, well done. No, they redid it. There was a band that re-did it in the like, stop. Stop. Stop.
Starting point is 00:25:39 You know what I'm saying. Round three, Alexis, your third song. Please name this timeless summer hit. Timeless, that scares me. Oh, okay. I don't know if I know the title. Okay, but again, summer is somewhere in that title. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Jeff, did you say that one more time? I'm going to lose it. On summer long. Finally, on the board. Okay. Jose, you have one. Alexis, you have one. Brooke, you have one.
Starting point is 00:26:17 All right. Jose, we're back to you. If you don't get this one right, Right, Jose, not only will all the listeners be disappointed, but your parents will be too. Well, I think that's already all happening. All right, what do you got for this famous song about this summer? What's the title that you're giving me? I'm summer 11.
Starting point is 00:26:37 I'm sorry, that is not correct. Brooke, what is the correct title of this song? Oh, my gosh. For me, it's not Summer 11? Alexis, what is it? Summer days? Summer days? It's summer night.
Starting point is 00:26:53 Oh! I give up on you guys. I really do. I think they see summer days drifting away. Wow. Okay. Brooke, we're back to you. If you can get this one right, you're going to seal the deal.
Starting point is 00:27:14 Name this famous summer song. It's the second word is summer. I'll give you that. Hot summer. Alexis. Retro summer. Jose. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Let's just end this. That was cruel summer by banana. by Banana Ramma. Either way, Brooke, with two correct, you are the winner of Riffing Around. Congratulations. Brooke is always down to Riff Around. I'm over it.
Starting point is 00:27:50 That was kind of disappointing, but anyway, another successful sort of edition of Riffing Around. I'm Jeff Summer of 69, DeBoe. Your phone tap is coming up right after this. Today we call a woman who just had a very memorable year. attending four different music concerts. Ooh, cool. Most of them with her sister.
Starting point is 00:28:13 And apparently, while she was there, she complained about all the extra fees they were charging her on the ticket site. I feel you. The hidden fees, non-hidden fees are everywhere. She could probably have bought a house by this time after all the concerts that she went to. Well, thankfully, some representatives
Starting point is 00:28:27 are about to call and ask her about her experience and maybe even toss in a few extra charges during the conversation. Just for kicks. Yeah, figures. It's your phone tap right now. Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s. Hello.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Hi, my name's Toby Barnhart. I work at Ticketmaster. Is this Jackie Muck's? It is. Hi, Jackie. I'm calling, according to our records, you purchased four separate concert tickets last year through our website.
Starting point is 00:28:57 Is that correct? That's pretty cool. Yeah, I guess we did. Fun? You sound like a fun person. Thank you. You're welcome. Okay. Is that why you're calling me?
Starting point is 00:29:11 Kind of. I'm just confirming that these are right. You went to Harry Stiles, Morgan Wallen, Beyonce, and P, with an exclamation, unc. NKP. Her name is pink. Pink, huh? That's a funny way to spell. You know if that's her legal name? No, it's definitely not her legal name. You don't know who pink is? Listen, why are you calling? What is the point of this call, sir? Right, I'm sorry. So, first of all, we would like to thank you for buying your tickets with us, even though, realistically, you don't really have another option. You just got to, but you click purchase on our site.
Starting point is 00:29:50 That's all that matters. How can I help you, sir? Okay. While you were at those venues, did you consume any food or beverage? I probably did eat and drink, yeah. Is this a survey or something? Well, no, I just needed a confirmation because now that- That I ate and drink.
Starting point is 00:30:08 drink? Correct. Now I can collect the concessions fee. Wait, what? Yeah, you see, it's hard for us to know if people are going to eat and drink at the show. So we can't just, like, add it onto the list of fees already while you're purchasing tickets just in case you don't.
Starting point is 00:30:24 But you did. I'm not paying any more fees, sir. You can forget about this. Well, um, I beg to differ. We actually have to charge your card. You can bet to differ all you like. If you charge my card, I will most certainly call my bank. and have those charges reversed.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Well, according to our terms and conditions, which I'm sure you read, right? Everybody reads thoroughly the terms and conditions during checkout. What is the point, sir? Why are you calling me? I'm not paying any extra fees. This is absolutely absurd. Okay, come on now.
Starting point is 00:30:53 You know you're legally obligated to pay it, and I think you want to do the right thing here. I think you're a jokester. You sound ridiculous. No, you're a jokester. You're not getting any more money out of it. Look, nobody wants debt. Nobody wants some unpaid food and beverage fee hanging over your head
Starting point is 00:31:07 for the rest of your lives. I don't care what you say. As a matter of fact, I'm about to hang up on you because I have things to do and this is a waste of time. No, if you hang up before I say goodbye, that's going to be a hang-up fee. And I do not want to do that.
Starting point is 00:31:20 I have your card on file. You are trying to charge us for everything. What is a spirit airline? What a coincidence. They're actually partners with us. Do you want some airline tickets? Shut up. I can get a discount.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Stop talking. This is absolutely ridiculous. We're really talking about fees. You guys get over like fat, in this thing and you want more money? Okay, I see you're upset. I can make this better. What if I take...
Starting point is 00:31:43 You can make this better. You can get off the phone with me. How does 50% off your long distance ride share to the concert fee sound? Uh-huh. Oh my gosh. We didn't even take a ride chair. We drove.
Starting point is 00:31:56 That's not true. Your sister Emily told me you guys Ubered it and you split the bill because you were drinking. What? Before and during. Why would my sister tell you all of my business? Because she listens to our morning show
Starting point is 00:32:07 and she said you'd be very easy to prank, and she was right, and I like Emily, so don't yell at her. Wait, what? This is actually Jose from Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. We're doing a prank phone call on you. This is a phone tap. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Are you serious? No, I'm not serious. That's the point. This is absurd. She told us that she's been to a few concerts with you, and you complained about the fees the whole time. You guys are crazy,
Starting point is 00:32:40 and I'm going to kill my sister when I see her. Well, there is also a murder fee, but I'll wave it. Oh, my. That's dark. 50% off murder, only for today. I love it. Brook and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. You know that moment in every spy movie where the sexy, long-legged Burnett wearing sunglasses, saunters up to the bar, and she orders herself a drink, and then subtly slides a manila envelope over to the secret informant sitting to her left. And it says top secret in bold letters.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Nobody look at this. Subtletty, subtlety, subtlety, subtly. And somehow no one ever notices the giant brown package that he pulls out from inside of his jacket either. Yeah. It's got like tied string on it. It slides. Jeff, it's slides.
Starting point is 00:33:36 These really are the best experts in the world. They're over a giant trench coat. I can't even see them. That scenario actually wasn't far off from what one of our listeners orchestrated during her first date. No top secret documents were involved, but there was an undercover spy. And we were all shocked when she finally admitted who that person was. You're going to hear it in your second date update right after this. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, second date update.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Most women have their own unwritten rules they set down for a first date. Now, Alexis might not agree because these rules I found online were written by men. Oh, yeah. I love when men do this. I think they're still pretty good. I bet you think that. Number one, always be willing to pay for half. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Should I stop there or do you want me to keep going? I didn't even get to. Don't drink too much. The best date's a sober date. Oh, my God. Where did you find this? Yeah, why would Alexis want to remember me? Anyway, we have a woman on the phone named Katrina, who has her own unwritten rule for dates,
Starting point is 00:34:45 that she brings someone along on her first one every time. Wow. Really? Katrina, welcome to the show. Hey. I think I'm more amazed that you can find someone to come with you every time. You know, like once or twice as a friend, then I'm like, girl, I am not going on your eighth first date. People don't even want to go on their own dates.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Seriously. Well, if you would pay for half of the meal, then people would be more than excited to hang out with you. And if you have a third, you can triple it. You can split it by three. There you go. But we want to learn about you and your dating life, Katrina. So tell us, who do you like to bring along on your dates with you? Like a friend?
Starting point is 00:35:21 Honestly, I like to ask my mom to come. Oh, gosh. Oh, geez. Why? You're a psycho. Oh, no. Hey, hold on. Before you say anything, I love moms.
Starting point is 00:35:32 If a girl shut up with her mom on a date, I'd be seen. so happy. No, you would not. That is not true. Mom, give me a hug. I'll get your approval first. For a first date. Why would you do that? Well, I have my mom kind of creep in the background. It's not like she's sitting with us or anything. Like, just to make sure that, like, the vibes are right and that I'm safe. And, you know, you never know. He's on his app. You need someone to make sure your form is right on the kiss, too. So make sure mom weighs in. You mean she's just like a random person at the bar. Do you introduce her to your dates? No, spot on. She's just a random person at the bar. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:04 that's better. It's better? It's better? That is, I mean, okay, I'm sorry, girl. I'm glad you're here. I'm glad you listen. That feels unhealthy to me.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Really? Brooke doesn't want to let her children leave the house until they're 30 years old. I mean, I say that, but I don't really want that to happen, Jeff. Like, you know. Brooke is definitely going to be on the first dates with both of her children when they go out. Hold on. Let me just cut all their steak really quickly and then you guys continue. So I'm guessing the mom went on this one too.
Starting point is 00:36:33 We're being so judgy here. We haven't even heard the date yet. Tell us about what you guys did and this guy that you went out with. Well, to start at the beginning, this guy, Jeremy, I met him on, I know you're going to roll your eyes. I met him on Tinder. That's fine. That's way better than the first thing you started this with. We're going to try not to judge.
Starting point is 00:36:51 Keep going. You met him online. All right. Well, we met on Tinder. And honestly, we hit it off pretty quick. But, like, it kind of seemed stagnant. Like, it wasn't going anywhere. Like, we talked for a few weeks.
Starting point is 00:37:01 But we most people talked about food. Like we're both just big duties Yeah Okay Okay So it's gonna bond over Yeah but it felt like it was kind of stalling You say
Starting point is 00:37:11 Yeah like I sort of just had to be like Hey are we going on a date or are we just gonna sit here and like Talk about food that we're not ever gonna keep together Well some guys do need that They need that extra push to be like hey ask me out already And after a matter of week I'm gonna say something Like I am that girl It's interesting you're so assertive and then bring your mom
Starting point is 00:37:32 I love it The first part. I know we do this segment to find out what things you love and what things you don't, but we got to figure out what Katrina did for her date. I agree. I want to hear. Okay. So Katrina, where did you and your mom go?
Starting point is 00:37:46 Okay. Well, he suggested sushi. Love that. Yeah. So I chose the restaurant because, like, I knew where it was. My mom and I've been there before. So that was also helpful. And so you're excited about this date.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Oh, yeah. I'm all in. I'm ready to go. And so I end up carpooling there with my mom. And we get there like a little early, obviously, because I don't want to get busted. But I have mom posts up at the bar. And he and I meet up and everything's pretty normal at this point.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Can I ask like when you're separated from your mother, are you guys like secretly meeting in the bathroom at any point? Are you giving each other signals throughout the day? Not necessarily. I mean, there was one point when like I got up to go to the bathroom. And, like, I definitely did just one quick check-in with her. Okay. I feel that's risky, though, because I look so much like my mom.
Starting point is 00:38:37 If someone saw me talking, you would know a million percent. Totally. Yeah, the date would probably leave you for your mom because she's really cool. She's a little bit of chill. She's way tannerly. But it sounds like if you only checked in with your mom once, the date must have been going pretty well. Yeah, I mean, we were making quick work at the sushi menu. We did it all from sushi to sashimi to seaweed salad.
Starting point is 00:38:58 We had a little bit everything. Okay. The gear reaction. You're leaning in on the foodie connection you guys have. Yeah, definitely. So, like, it was pretty chill. How does a mom date end? Like, does she watch you guys?
Starting point is 00:39:10 I'm being serious. Right, because he can't walk her to the car because it's her mom's car. Yeah, so like how... My mom has the keys. Yeah. Oh, no. You took her mom. Unlocked the car right now.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Well, we went outside and, yes, I have to get in the car with my mom, so, like, I have to to finesse this. So, I just have a problem. Like, hey, this was great. and I like gave him a quick kiss but like he kind of did seem a little surprised by that Oh because you kissed him like you initiated it? Yeah, again I am that girl
Starting point is 00:39:40 Yeah you're assertive that's rare In front of your mom. Was it in front of your mom? Did she see? I mean yeah she was like lurking in the background Oh no Her cameras out and everything It's their first kiss on camera
Starting point is 00:39:57 Yeah, one cat's about. No Okay And what do you mean he seemed surprised by the kids? How so? I don't know. Like, I kind of just threw it out there. It was quick.
Starting point is 00:40:06 He was kind of like, looks like he was reeling a tiny bit. I don't know. We did just eat a bunch of sushi. That could be on me. Maybe it was weird for him because his dad was also there watching. He's posted up by the jukebox. The mom's over by the bar. The grandparents are in the car outside.
Starting point is 00:40:24 It's just everybody's watching. This is like a family tree. If that, it happens, I will love it so hard. Honestly, I really hope not, but maybe it will when we come back. We'll call Jeremy for you and try and get your second date update right after this. Thank you. Hold on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Starting point is 00:40:41 Second date update. If you're just joining us for the second date update, we're on the phone with Katrina, whose first date would be an absolute nightmare for most of us in this room. But for her, it's totally normal to bring along her mom as the third wheel. Just make sure that everything is going, right? That's right. As far as we can tell, her date, Jeremy, did not know that her mom was even there. The whole time watching, peeping in on their first kiss.
Starting point is 00:41:11 Katrina, did you hold your finger up to give mom a countdown so that she knew the kiss was about to happen? It would have been kind of romantic. Well, I think everyone was caught off guard by the kiss. Mom included. For some reason, I just imagine your mother in the window of that sushi restaurant just banging on it saying, Way to go, honey! Well, thank God that didn't happen. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:32 But after the date, your mom did approve of him. Oh, yeah, definitely. Okay. And we never asked either. Have you talked to him since? I know that you said the kiss took him off guard, but maybe have you heard anything? No. That's why I'm calling you.
Starting point is 00:41:47 It's been awkward. I don't know what's up. Weird. Well, hopefully we can help smooth things over. We're about to call your boy here and hopefully turn Katrina and Jeremy into the power couple, Katramey. It's got a nice ring to it. Did we need to dial her mom in on the other line, too?
Starting point is 00:42:03 Oh, you're right. I'm sure she's watching through one of the windows of the studio here, so we'll be good. All right. I'm going to dial him right now. Let's do it. Hey, is this Jeremy? Yeah, who's this? We're a radio show.
Starting point is 00:42:24 We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey, Jeremy. Hey, how are you doing? What up? Hi. Hi. Hey. You're quite the talker.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Yep. It's going to be a tough nut to crack, Jeff. Maybe, but hopefully we can because we're trying to help out one of our listeners with this segment we're doing called a second date update. Basically, you went out with a girl named Katrina the other night to a sushi restaurant, and we're trying to kind of pick your brain about it. Yeah, that was a scam. What? What? Did you say scam?
Starting point is 00:42:57 Like, you scammed her? No. No, I think she's got some kind of operation she's running. Oh, she's scammed you. Wait, what? Can you please elaborate because we have no idea what you're talking about? She did not allude to any sort of scam when we talked to her. It was a date, right?
Starting point is 00:43:14 Well, all right. We went to a sushi restaurant. We ordered a ton of food. Yeah. You showed at a sushi restaurant. Yeah, okay. So at the end, the bill came, and, you know, I have a policy. I'll pay for the first day, usually more than that.
Starting point is 00:43:33 I just think it's the right thing to do. Although, I mean, we had a big night. We ordered a lot of food. So the guy came and she put down her card too. Oh. And I would say, all right, thank God. One, I don't have to pay for this all, but two, that's nice of her to like, I said, I'd get it.
Starting point is 00:43:50 But then she threw down her card. And so I was like, all right, that's cool of her. Yeah. That's really consider it. See, Alexis, it is a nice thing. Guys appreciate that and like that about women. Whatever. I mean, I just change what I do.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Just saying. You won't like Alexis. Consider it for next time. I forget my card, Jeff. Oh, is that what happens? She always says, oh, I'm so sorry. So sorry. Jeremy, keep going.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Well, but hold on, because the bill came, and I got my card back, and I saw I had still been charged for everything. What? And I had a quick moment of what's happening. And then he turned to her and said, and here's your loyalty card. What? Oh, so she... That's her favorite sushi place. Wait, so, like, she threw it down.
Starting point is 00:44:30 So, like, if you order 10 rolls, you give them 11th first. or something, like that type of deal? Is that what you mean? She was getting some kind of like reward points for all the money I just spent. Oh. Oh. Wait. That's pretty smart.
Starting point is 00:44:44 That's not a scam. Like, why wouldn't she throw it down? Like, you're eating there. You don't have a loyalty card. It's weird that she would get all the benefits from their meal together that he paid for. She should have said, hey, you can have a loyalty program here. If you want, you can join. If not, I'm in it.
Starting point is 00:44:59 But someone buys me Starbucks. It's so hard for me not to put my rewards bar go right. I don't know that that's a scam. I bet she just didn't even think about it. Well, how much was it? How much was the bill that you paid? It's sushi. It's got to be 100 or so.
Starting point is 00:45:13 I think it was closer to like 200 bucks. Yeah. Oh, my God. I saved the scam because I just suddenly got a flash of her taking like every internet guy to this one place and like racking up a lot of this hard. And then she can take her friends for sushi for lunch. It is. I'm racking up the free California rolls and nobody even knows. Alexis is loving this.
Starting point is 00:45:32 You're going to, you're creating. in a little monster in our studio. I'm texting all my friends right now. I'm sorry. That is a big accusation. It is weird that none of that came up when we talked to her. Well, it's so small. I'm telling you, she doesn't even think about it.
Starting point is 00:45:45 Yeah, she just takes money from guys and gets the rewards for herself. It may not be like that. Okay. We need to clear this up and actually have Katrina on the line. She is on the phone already, by the way, Jeremy. I want to talk to you. Doesn't feel less scummy. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:46:01 Yeah. That's how this segment. works. We have them listening quietly and then have them jump in. That feels normal. Sir, respectfully, what are you talking about? Like, I'm running. You suggested sushi. I suggested the restaurant.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Oh, she got you. Wait a minute. Wait. You just said you picked the place. You picked sushi. So, what, I was going to talk to you for weeks. On the off cans, you would land on sushi, even though I told you pick absolutely anything. She's got a good point here.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Wait, wait a minute. Just answer me yes or no. Have you taken other internet dates to that same place? Oh, quite frankly, that is none of your business. And if you would like to know, that's where my mom and I like to go. It's our favorite restaurant, she and I. Yeah, because you get all the free food there. No, come on, you guys.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Jeffrey, you really think that she is going to spend hours talking to men, then hours going out on terrible dates with them. Like, it is not worth, like, I can't imagine all of that energy being worth whatever you end up getting. I guess I do see Brooks. You can be running a tighter scam than this. You're taking weeks to get them in this thing. Maybe you need to like streamline this system. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:47:11 The reward is not worth the effort. Yeah. Maybe I'm going to buy some gift cards too next time you're there. You keep saying it's not worth it. Then why would you bother putting down your card? You offered to pay. I said, thank you because that is the appropriate response. And then I put my loyalty card down.
Starting point is 00:47:28 I'm not going to let 160 bucks, like $100,000 bill go without like just putting points on my card. Like, you're paying for it anyway. Like, why not be passionate on it? So you said you and your mom go there. Did you use the loyalty points from this date on the next time that you and your mom went and ate there? Why would it matter? I'm just curious.
Starting point is 00:47:46 I always use my loyalty card when we go and eat there. And yeah, we went there like a week or so after this date that he and I had. So, like, technically, probably, but I had a lot of points on that card. So he paid for several meals for you and your mom. You bought her mom dinner. Yes. I don't know why he's so upset about this still. I totally don't see an issue with this.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Here's the thing. After hearing the way this man feels about me because I'm apparently a scam artist, let me just pull the curtain all the way back. Let's get so real right now. Oh, there's more behind the curtain. You sure? The week or so after when I went there with my mom
Starting point is 00:48:16 was not even the most important time that I went there with my mom. I think the most noteworthy time is the fact that my mother was there when we were on the state in the first place. She was sitting at the bar. Okay. I don't know if Jeremy knew that. That's not a real bomb you think it is.
Starting point is 00:48:30 I'm pretty sure. The thing is, she was just watching to make sure that I don't get, I don't know, murdered. And then... Jeremy, you gave off... Do you feel like you maybe gave off some murdery vibes when you matched with her online? Her mom was going to save her. You thought I was going to murder you in the sushi restaurant? Well, maybe not in the restaurant, but maybe the parking lot.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Probably, yeah. After you pay the bill, obviously. Yeah, they need the loyalty points. Duh. I think the more important point is, did you hear that her mom was there? Yeah. I don't even understand. Your mom is chaperoning your dates.
Starting point is 00:49:04 You're a grown woman. Yeah, because there's a bunch of weirdos on the internet, so you have to be careful. Yeah, we're all scamming people. You are the weirdo. The internet weirdo is you. Well, I just, this is not going well. It's so romantic at this point. I just have to ask if you two would like to go out on another date.
Starting point is 00:49:26 Moms and parents all invited, and Jeremy, we're going to pay for it this time. We'll give you your own punch card. Yeah. There it is. What do you think, Jeremy? This is like more twisted than I even imagine. There's no scam here. We'll pay for everything.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Yeah. Let her go out with her mom. I'm done. Okay. She does like to do that. Their loyalty points are running low, though. So who's going to pay for that? You guys, well, you already said you were going to give me a guest card.
Starting point is 00:49:54 Let's go. Now you're running a scam on us. Yeah. I don't know. She's really good at it, though. I'm still okay with her. I know. Brooke, Venmo, $400 right now.
Starting point is 00:50:04 Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Wow, it's been a while since we've had fireworks like that happen between two of our callers. And this time, it was all because of using a loyalty card on a date. Wow. Is it really that bad the whole time? I recently was on a date and they asked me if I had a loyalty card. I was like, I don't know. Look up my number.
Starting point is 00:50:25 And it was a whole process. And they did, though. They found it. The bad part about it is that she didn't say she was using a loyalty card. She made it seem like she was going to pay for the date, but then was like, oh, by the way, you're paying for everything and I'm taking all the points. She should have just been like, hey, they have a loyalty program here. I'm a part of it. If you want to be, you know, you can sign up.
Starting point is 00:50:43 But scam artist over a loyalty card? I don't know, Jeff. We get why Brooke is so offended by this because she's a staunch advocate of loyalty cars. She's got 37 in her purse right now. She's loyal to everyone. If I know that I'm going to go back there in five years, I will still keep my loyalty. Is that really loyalty, Brooke, if you have every single grocery store? If I'm going to save 10 cents, it is worth it to me.
Starting point is 00:51:07 I love a good coupon. Remember, you can listen to all of our second dates, wherever you get your podcast at Brooke and Jeffrey. And you can always email the show. We'll call that person who's not calling you back. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. People who say that revenge doesn't make you feel better have obviously never had a terrible boss or a cheating partner or an unruly pet hamster. because there are definitely certain situations where a little paybacks the only thing that can help you sleep at night.
Starting point is 00:51:39 And nowhere is that more true than with a horrible neighbor. Oh, yes. Luckily, we found a list of the pettiest, most passive-aggressive neighbors that people have ever had to deal with. And I'll just say, what one guy did using a bucket and 12 gallons of water is just straight up savage. You're going to hear it coming up right after this. Nothing gets under your skin like living next to an obnoxious, inconsiderate, passive-aggressive neighbor. Wow. Yeah. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Whether it's the guy who has to mow his
Starting point is 00:52:16 lawn at 5 a.m. or the one who files noise complaints because your wind chimes, quote, disrupt the ecosystem. Are we doing this because you're just finally meeting your new neighbors, Jeff? Is that what's going on? What's happening? Well, there is research that it does give earthworms nightmares if you put a wind chime over the grass. Oh, I want to give you. Earthworms don't have nightmares. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:52:38 Like an earthworm? You know what? Don't care about the earthworms. That's on you, Brooke. With a little stuffy sucking it some because it's scary. Oh, God. Oh, I get it. Brooke's solution is to offer to buy up all the properties around her whenever she doesn't like her neighbors,
Starting point is 00:52:52 push the poor people out. But not everybody has that luxury. And some of us just have to suffer. through it. And a recent survey asked people for the pettiest neighbor disputes that they've ever had to deal with. Like this one says my trespassing neighbors
Starting point is 00:53:08 cut down trees on my side of the property. And when I sent a cease and desist letter, the wife threatened to ruin my reputation because she works at the school my children attend. What? Oh, what is that? I sent an anonymous tip to the
Starting point is 00:53:24 IRS, alerting them that her husband was running an at home business and had hired two workers under the table to avoid paying taxes. Okay, you win. Enjoy being audited, psycho. Wow. Dude, do you guys remember there was an old radio host in this city that wanted a view of the city and so chopped down all the trees on public property?
Starting point is 00:53:47 No. Oh, my God. Oh, that was crazy. No, I don't remember. It was crazy. He got in just so much trouble and five, like, tons of money. They, like, wait in the middle of the night with a chainsaw and just cut them all down. Yeah, you can't do that.
Starting point is 00:54:00 One person lived next to a house who did not want to hand out candy to children on Halloween. Oh, come on. I mean, and there's a lot of people that have different, like, religious backgrounds. And that's understandable. The thing is, they'd still stay home that whole night. And instead of turning off the porch light, like most normal people do, instead, they made a giant sign and hung it in their entryway. And it said in big bold letters, stop.
Starting point is 00:54:27 our home does not celebrate Halloween Please do not knock on this door Dang bro So they're gonna decorate It's like a non-decorate Yeah Oh my gosh, you're gonna have like big Xs and tape everywhere It's gonna look like a Halloween decorate
Starting point is 00:54:43 Yeah I would be like is that a joke Yeah let's knock just in case Nothing says egg and teepee my house Like a big angry sign like that Yeah just turn the front porch light off We're looking at a survey that asks people to share the weirdest stories about their pettiest neighbors. This one says
Starting point is 00:55:00 I lived in a duplex where my neighbor couldn't comprehend why I didn't want to hear his TV blasting through the walls at two in the morning. And then they attached a screenshot of their text conversation with their neighbor. Oh, I like this. What does it say? So they wrote, hey, I need to get to bed. Could you
Starting point is 00:55:16 please lower the volume on your TV? The base is coming through the walls. Yeah. The neighbor's response? Sorry, nah. This is me in my living room. I'm good. Oh. So they ride back. The base is literally shaking the pictures on the walls of my bedroom. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:31 It's after 2 a.m. Please turn it down. The neighbor's response, dude, I'm watching Shark Tank. Sorry, but relax. I mean, you got to have that base on for Shark Tank. Mark Cuban's about to throw a sick off with this guy. You can believe this invention. Boom, boom.
Starting point is 00:55:49 Kind of side with the neighbor on that one. Another one says, I had an extremely lazy name. who would literally pick up her dogs, poop from her grass, and toss it over the fence into my backyard. Oh, those are fun. I'd go outside and find clumps scattered everywhere. Oh, bro, I will smear that on your front door. Gross. With just your hand?
Starting point is 00:56:10 No, that's just me. I'm fine. Not that. Sorry, it's a defense mechanism. Remember, I talked about it on the show how my neighbors for months would let their dog out and it would go into my yard and use the bathroom and then run back home. I still think that your neighbors train the dog to do that. I know. There's no way they didn't realize that that was happening.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Oh, they knew. They fully knew. That was what they're like, honey, don't go by the window. He'll know that we see it. And then they fly drones over my house while I was sunbathing with my shirt off. What? You didn't tell us that part. I figured you guys saw the photos online. So maybe not. We're looking at a survey that asked people to share stories about their pettiest neighbors that they've ever had to deal with. I did see that picture on droney fans. Yeah. This one says, we lived across the street from an old couple who installed a giant floodlight that shone directly into our bedroom all night long.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Okay, well, hold on. Those aren't supposed to go off, right? No, you could turn them on and off. They said we put up curtains, but it was still too bright, so we politely asked that they turn it off at night. Or at least install a timer. They refused saying to mind
Starting point is 00:57:17 our own business. Oh, come on. So, I started sneaking over and loosening their bulbs. Yes. Dude, the same thing happened in my neighborhood in my hometown. Really? Yes, and our neighbors sent their little girl up a 10-foot pole
Starting point is 00:57:32 because she was the only one that could shimmy up it. She was like nimble. And she'd loosen the bulb. And then he never fixed it. That's awesome. They go on, they say, when the elderly man asked me if I ever had problems with my outside lights coming loose, I told him, yeah, and I blamed it on the vibrations from traffic in our street.
Starting point is 00:57:49 He said he had the same problem, and I told him I gave up and left him off. He did the same. It's nice to win a neighbor fight. And finally, this one says, one winter, I spent 45 minutes shoveling my car out of deep snow so I could drive to the grocery store. I was gone for half an hour. And when I came back, my neighbor swooped in and took the spot that I just shoveled. No. Our apartment complex doesn't have a signed parking, but in the winter, it's understood.
Starting point is 00:58:18 If you shovel a spot, it's yours. Yes. So I was really upset, went inside, filled up two. one gallon jugs of water went back and poured them out over his windshield. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat. I must have poured about 12 gallons
Starting point is 00:58:34 of water onto his car by the time I was done. It was already freezing by the time I poured that last bucket. It sat overnight and the next morning I got to watch as he helplessly tried to scrape off layer after layer of ice off of his windshield.
Starting point is 00:58:49 You need an ice pick at that point. The problem with that is that he still didn't understand. He's like, wow. It really got frozen. Like, he didn't know that it was because of the parking style. Yeah, it's true. My bad luck. Yeah. Why is my car the only one that's completely encased in ice?
Starting point is 00:59:05 Dude, wild. Those were the pettiest, most passive-aggressive-aggressive neighbor stories that people have ever had to deal with. You got a text years in.
