It's like, yeah. I came to the park to see Bugs. Well, yeah. I always thought that was so interesting with like Six Flags and stuff.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Like, as a kid, I don't know if you guys felt this way, but I didn't need, um, I didn't need a Looney Tunes theme. I was like the rides do the heavy lifting. We don't need the character. I don't need any characters. I don't need to take my picture with anybody. What I keep picturing now with Lindsay is, you know. She's like, whew.

Oh, he banned or he's banned. He's banned from life from all six flag parks for a stunt he pulled while riding a rollercoaster at Cedar Point theme park in Ohio.
Starting point is 00:06:55 Cincinnati. Influencer Alan Farrell ate chicken nuggets on Tuesday, May 19. while riding the Millennium Force roller coaster at a Cedar Point in Northern Ohio. That's it. Wait. He ate nuggets. You can't eat on the ride? He ate chicken nuggets.
Starting point is 00:07:08 I don't think you're allowed to eat on the ride because what if it flies? For all of them? Oh, right, right, right. But what if it flies? You don't want a nugget in your face. I remember when Fabio got a bird to the face? Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:20 On a roller coaster. No. I remember that. Oh. Wait, Fabio. He was at a roller coaster. Oh, wait. He was at a roller coaster.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Aaron, you might have to find this clip. We're not going to have enough time. Eventually in the show, we will have it. They were shooting a commercial. Yes, and he was in the front car, and he went face into a seagull. Stop. And it, like, broke his nose. No.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Yeah. Oh, my God. Fabio would have never as beautiful as he was before. Beak to beak. Oh, my God. Beak to beak. That was the name of the book. He was on the cover of.
Starting point is 00:07:48 That was his new talk show. Okay. So this guy, also, Millennium Force roller coaster, Six Flags really toe in the line with their Star Wars. Right. Oh, yeah. Millennium Four. Of course.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Right. I don't hate the game. Farrell. Have you been on the Mandalorius? It's really, it's a great ride. Is it great? The Six Flags is just trying to do it. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:08:13 There's an image of Fabio post bird fight. That's awful. Yeah. Oh my God. He looks so good still. He almost looks better with blood. Was he jacked or was he just a big guy? No, he was jacked.
Starting point is 00:08:27 He was steroided up. He was jaded. It's gorgeous hair. There's so much blood on the girls behind him. Oh, yeah. Is there? Yes. Wait, where?
Starting point is 00:08:36 I don't see. On their faces. She has blood on her face. You see? I don't see blood on her. Both women have it out of the forehead. Oh, shit. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:08:43 I mean, a bird strike take, can you have a little bit of Fabio on your forehead? Can you just? Or bird. She's like, I'm going to sell this. This is when they started saying you can't have birds on them. Can I sell my forehead? Yeah. For gosh?
Starting point is 00:08:56 No. I'm touched by an angel. That's a late night commercial. Renting my forehead out. Foreheads for cash. Alan Farrell recorded the video of himself eating McDonald's chicken nuggets and dipping them into sweet and sour sauce. Soros Source. I can talk sauce aboard a ride on May 19th.
Starting point is 00:09:12 He shared the video that same day to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. If you would have just done it and not posted it, he and told his friends about it. But his whole thing is. He's an influencer. He's an influencer. And this is it's not about doing it. It's about people seeing you do it. Of course.
Starting point is 00:09:28 So now I'm like, okay. You get what you deserve. Tony Clark, perfect name for somebody who's in charge at Six Flags. There's no funny business in that name. He's got a set of keys. Tony Clark. And everyone calls him Tony Clark. They don't call him.
Starting point is 00:09:41 He is a full nameer. He's a full name. As one full name. One full nameer to the next. Have you talked to Tony? Who? Tony Clark. Oh, well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Tony's coming over. I have no idea who you're talking about. Paul Reiser. God bless Paul Reiser. Great stand up. He's like, that was the joke that like you ever get like half the information. but twice the recall. You're like, Tony Clark, and you're like, no, and you're like, Tony, and you're like,
Starting point is 00:10:06 oh. That's the other way, the other side. Yeah, for sure. The flip side of that bit. It's so good. It's so good. It's so good. Regional Manager of Public Relations for Six Flags said that guests must follow all rules for
Starting point is 00:10:18 Saturday. He always introduces himself with that title. Tony Clark, Regional Manager. Hi, John Clark, Regional Manager, Public Relations. Six Flags. We've met. Over Mid-America. Safety is a cornerstone.
Starting point is 00:10:29 of our business and we have zero tolerance for inappropriate and unsafe behavior. Clark said in an email adding that the company's policy prohibits all loose articles on rides, including food, because it could become a choking hazard. Right. So inappropriate behavior is, to me, him going, crossing the line. Sure. It is maybe unsafe to him and unsafe to someone else who might be screaming and a nugget could come in their mouth. Go in their mouth and then, yeah, and then they're chewing. Then they're swallowing. And then they spit that out. That hits the person behind. them. Now they've swallowed barf. They barf from the barf and then that goes to the boat of them.
Starting point is 00:11:05 And a whole thing of it goes into Fabio's face. And that's viral, baby. That's viral. I mean, to be fair, you're paying it backwards. We just wrote a scene from Final Destination. That's so true. This is called the paying it backwards. Pay it backwards.
Starting point is 00:11:22 If you're Alan Farrell, this banning is great for you because it's all content. Absolutely. Anything that's talking about you anywhere. And then you get to go on and be like, I'm banned from six flags and here's my story. I'm selling free Alan Farrell T-shirts. Right. My website. Safety's our cornerstone.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Like he said, guests who violate our code of conduct are not welcome in our parks. And this guest has been banned from all six flags parks for life. I wonder if there was like a prior offense for him. Don't you want? I mean, we'll all be gone. Like just he has. This can't be the first time he did this. I want him at 80.
Starting point is 00:11:54 The world won't be around. But I want him at 80 to go back up to a six flags. and just see if he can get in. I'm always curious about lifetime bans. Right. The lifetime ban is, it's hard to, it's like telling your kid he's grounded for like two years.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah. Sure. 18 months in, are you gonna really hold about that? Granted for one night also grounds you. It grounds you. You got to stick around. But the other thing is like, is that part of employee training now
Starting point is 00:12:20 at Six Flags? So like, here's how you dispose of waste. And here's this. And here's the guy who's banned. And here's the, Right. You gotta tell every employee. Right.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Like they're on a list. On a face. Here's him in a fake mustache. And you can't just go by name because there's got to be other Alan Farrells out there. Of course. Six Flags. Someone else buy the tickets. Has a section on its website for content creators.
Starting point is 00:12:42 This is probably a constant thing for them. Which says the park doesn't work with creators who violate the park safety rules, code of conduct or creator guidelines. The code of contact bans acts such as unsolicited photography or recording that disrupts a guest experience or interferes with park operations, acts of behavior that park management determined to be a safety concern or interrupts operations for a guest experience, refusing to follow verbal or printed instructions. In the video, Farrell read a comment daring him to eat 10 chicken nuggets while riding a
Starting point is 00:13:13 roller coaster. He then recited his catchphrase, what's wrong with you? And took on the challenge. Wait, that's his catchphrase? That's his catchphrase. What's wrong with him? What's wrong with him? Get a better catchphrase.
Starting point is 00:13:26 What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? I put the link to the YouTube in the video. I don't want to see that. But yeah, that's his thing. He'll read a comment. Right. I found all this out.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I've been a fan for years. And then he yells, what's wrong with you? And then goes and does it. Which to be also, it's not like you read it for, you decided to do this. You read, you chose what you're as much wrong with you.
Starting point is 00:13:48 Why did you decide to do this? What's wrong with you is a playful. It's you guys are the worst. All right. I'll do it. Yeah. That's my current. That's my current album.
Starting point is 00:13:56 You guys are the worst. You guys are the worst. While speaking to a park employee, Farrell said, Farrow could be heard saying, so this is on camera, he goes up to a park employee before he gets on the ride and he says,
Starting point is 00:14:05 if anyone asks, I do not have chicken nuggets in my underwear, which by the way, I'm sure wasn't the first person to say that to that guy that day. That day. For sure.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Right, that's a common phrase. Also, if you're a park employee and people say shit, you're like, whatever, man. Right. I don't, just get on the ride. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:21 So then his initials are A. They're like in high school. Yeah. Yeah. Park employees. Cool AF. He's banned AF. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:30 That was good. Randy. Circle gets a square. Jamie didn't want to laugh at that one. She didn't want to, but then she gave me. Fought everything, like a McNugget on a loop to loop. She fought it. Fought it.
Starting point is 00:14:43 She's like, I'm a loop. The employee nods at him. She fought its way. And then the video cuts to Farrell getting situated on the 310-foot Millennium Force coaster. Oh, man. So gross. Once the ride began, Farrell pulled the number. nuggets out of his pants and even called for his cameraman to give him some sauce to dip the nuggets into it okay okay the cameraman's on behind him oh behind him okay despite the wind and
Starting point is 00:15:04 force of the roller coaster causing the sauce to slather across his face he still screamed in excitement as he had another nugget while aboard the ride and although he did eat some nuggets he was just three nuggets shy of reaching his goal we got seven down so we did fail the challenge he said what i guess then he has to kill himself your three your three nuggets shy of reaching goal is also a way of saying someone is retarded. I mean, he's three nuggets shy of a... You're looking for a couple of cards short of a full deck. And that you just mean somebody's a group.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I know, but can't you use that as a phrase like this guy over here? He's three nuggets shy of reaching his goal. Three shut seats to the wind. You got the three part, right? Did you see here that new guy that so-and-so is dating? He's three nuggets shy short of his goal. Like, what would you think of that person? I would be so excited to meet this person.
Starting point is 00:15:54 I also feel like that's sort of an underdog story. This is kind of, you know, if they banned him for life, he could say, I didn't even eat all 10. And I feel like they would have been like, okay, maybe you're only banned from a couple of them. Like, I feel like they would have reduced the sentence. Or 7 out of 10. Oh, that's so smart.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Of course. Oh, it was right there. Of course. At one point, the coaster's car returned to the station and someone asked Farrell if he brought nuggets on the ride. Hell yeah, the person said when he found out that he did. He also high-five someone in front of him and included the video in his official roller coaster video
Starting point is 00:16:30 where viewers can see him munching on a chicken nugget. Farrell, who is? How old would you like to guess? Alan Farrell. We got to look at the side of his face. Where do you put him? Where do you put a YouTube influencer that wants to know what's wrong with you?
Starting point is 00:16:43 25. 25? I'm going to say 33. 33? 22. 22? 26 years. Oh.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Okay. Yay. Based outside of Detroit. I have a really good nugget dar. Has been accepting challenges from viewers for six years. He told USA Today via Instagram on May 29th. In 2020, his fans dared him to do a crazy challenge, and he replied, what's wrong with you?
Starting point is 00:17:09 From there, the phrase became his catchphrase and a recognizable part of my brand, he told to USA Today. His brand. I've done it before with a cheeseburger on the same ride, and I saw it as good entertainment for my fans. He said he didn't find out he was banned until news outlets began reaching out to him. And then Cedar Point Security called him shortly after. When asked if he had any regrets, he said he doesn't.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Oh. This is what I signed up for. I love when he's like, this is my burden. This is my cross-to-air. You know, A, when you sign up to go in the Army, you expect to cease something. Yeah, I love this, like, whatever, Vila Revolution's attitude. You're going to make an omelet. You're going to break smigs.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Like, that's this. This is what I signed up for. I understand Cedar Point's perspective. They don't want others that aren't professionals trying to do the challenge. I do on a daily basis. Right. Well, he, yeah, I mean that... I love that he thinks he's different from other people.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Yeah, he's like... Yeah, it's different. Like, I have a license in this. I wouldn't even call it. You have a following for some reason. I wouldn't even call this a challenge. I would barely call this a dare. It's really not much of one.
Starting point is 00:18:10 No. Ten nuggets. You just didn't eat fast enough. I'm going to do something stupid. Again, if I'm the person behind him and honey mustard starts flying back in my face... I'm punching him in the back of the head. I'm so mad at this guy. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Right? But that's not a... to me a challenge is. is I'm going to go in the loop-de-loop. I'm going to drop a nugget from the top of the loop-de-loop and try to catch it when I come down. Or that's a really cool challenge. That you put on your Tinder profile.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Yeah, for sure. That is, wow. I mean, that would just be, that would be, that was in my mind. In fact, you'd be invited, whatever the opposite of band is, you'd be that with, like, all the other, like, I don't know, whatever else Six Flags owns, they'd be like, you have, like, lifetime membership. You become the seventh flag. For sure.
Starting point is 00:18:51 You should get a flag with your face on it. Just a loop and a little nugget dropping down in the mouth open. It's like Mount Rushmore. You manage a build a better. You deserve to have your face in the rock. Yes. I don't, this is gross, but to me it would be a challenge. If he was like, I'm going to drink a gallon of milk in two minutes and then go on this
Starting point is 00:19:08 roller coaster five times, I'd be like, that's a challenge. In a row. I don't want to witness it or be a part of it. No, but if somebody's somebody would be like, wow, you really challenge you. I think I can handle roller coasters. My kids may be gone on this roller coaster at Six Flags in St. Louis where the, the car you're in as the roller coaster goes spins. I've been on one of those.
Starting point is 00:19:27 And then when we got to the end... You're Texas, right? Yeah. So you've got... No, you know. It kept spinning. Six Flags over Texas. Wow. It kept spinning so much at the end that I thought when it stopped,
Starting point is 00:19:40 my inside my head kept spinning. And I'm like, I'm gonna die. I know that feeling. It was so... I thought I was going to die. Now drink a gallon of milk before that. Yeah, that's a challenge. God. Well, here's the deal. These two, how many
Starting point is 00:19:53 nuggets that you can eat in one sitting? 20. No. Wait, not anymore. Not anymore. Not anymore. Just normal,
Starting point is 00:19:59 like how much you can eat without throwing out? Old me could have done. In your peak, how many chicken nuggets could you have eaten? 80. 80? No,
Starting point is 00:20:06 easy, easy. We've had this conversation, I don't care because I genuinely get shocked every time. Mine's like six. 40. No, you could eat more than six.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Come on. I could eat more than six. Could I? But I'm saying we're eating and I'm like, I'm done with these. Oh. After like six.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Where you're like, I'm at my point where I can stop. I've had enough chicken eggs. You would never have a bonner ever again. 80. And if you had all the dipping sauces out, I would easily eat 80. I think for me, it's like 10.
Starting point is 00:20:33 The fact that the guy from supersized me. Because when you get a six pack, there's always that feeling at the end where you're like, oh, there's no more. Yeah. You know what I mean? But 10, you are done. Yeah, 10, I'd be good. I'd probably buy two. I'd probably have 12 and then I would probably have two to give.
Starting point is 00:20:47 The 20 piece or is what I would order. To give to this guy. I do 20. I do 20, but who's the guy who was the supersized me guy? Oh, Morgan Spurlock who was just a raging alcoholic
Starting point is 00:20:59 He's dead? He's dead? He's no longer alive. I want to say McDonnell's had some... But they found out all that supersized me stuff was just him being a raging alcohol Fine, but I think McDonald's killed him.
Starting point is 00:21:09 I think McDonald's killed him before. Because the doctor went in and it was like when he would go to doctor, I feel like, your liver. What this is doing to your liver? And he was like, I know I'm just doing it. But he was just drinking like a gallon of vodka a day. This makes sense because he seemed really fun. He was the guy who was a, you know, because a lot of people at that time,
Starting point is 00:21:28 there were no fun documentaries. He was like the fun doc guy. And most fun drunks are like, super size it. Yeah. Give me more. Right. You know what? Give a fucking big one.
Starting point is 00:21:38 That is the challenge you do when you're totally dry. I'm going to eat McDonald's every day for 30 days. No, you can. Oh, you bet your ass. Someone at the end of the bar. Oh, my God. Yeah, you can. Watch me.
Starting point is 00:21:52 Watch me do it. I'll fucking do it. I'll fucking do it. Where's my phone? Give him his phone. I love a documentary that starts that the whole thing starts with him being like, oh yeah, watch me.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Watch me. That's how we should have known. He was the dog hawk. Anybody was like, watch my ass. You know, when he died, you're saying I can't do it? You think I can't do it? I'll watch me do it.
Starting point is 00:22:14 When he died, they doubled the size of his casket. Oh my God. They supersized the casket. a lot of headroom in there. That was... I thought that was out of respect. That was out of respect. It was an honor to his legacy.
Starting point is 00:22:27 They wanted to honor. We'll get out of here with this. A quote and a fun little guess. Because Alan Farrell says, stay tuned. This is what he told USA today. We're not slowing down. What's wrong with you,

I will be in July 7. Second, I'm at Cap City Comedy Club in Austin, Texas. And then I'm doing, what am I doing? Chicago shows.
Starting point is 00:32:52 Yeah, Chicago is the 15th to the 18th of July. Lincoln Lodge, different shows every night. Super fun. All stand-up shows, all great. Me and the best comics in Chicago. And it's just a good time. And then on the 25th, I'll be at the Thrasher Opera House in Green Lake, Wisconsin. That's in July.
Starting point is 00:33:08 And then ending out July in Boca Raton doing a weekend there. I think that's like the 30th or 31st, whatever the last. Day of July is into the 1st of August. So those two dates right there. Right around your birthday. Yeah. And then in August, headlining, uh, comedy festival in Cincinnati, the last weekend in August.
Starting point is 00:33:24 And then we've got Charlotte and, uh, Cohasset, Massachusetts and other dates. Everything's up at Daniel Van Kirk.com. Yeah, I love it. Jamie, let's talk about your, uh, fantastic show. You're opening for Alan Farrell. I am. Six flags. I'm doing a one woman show called What's wrong with me.
Starting point is 00:33:40 What's right with you? What's wrong with me? I'm fucking attracted to this guy. And I haven't ever. Since he got bam, that's what's wrong with me. And Fabio's bloody face. No, you have a great show. I love seeing your promo about it.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Thank you. I'll let you. Yes. Let them know. Okay, so my show is called My Friend Katie, and it's sort of like a true crime-ish stand-up show. It's a one-woman show. I try to avoid that label, but it fully is. It's a theater show. It's a theater.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Theater show, yeah. But funny because it's you. Oh, thank you. Yeah, so the premise is that my best friend mysteriously and, and, suddenly passed away when I was in college. And I basically, 20 years later, I go back to Dallas and I try to investigate what happened to her. Wow. Yeah, it's just like it was an unbelievable journey. Like just so many things I didn't know. And then I would get information where I go, that's the piece that's going to be the closure. Like once I know this, I'm done. I'm going to stop looking. And then
Starting point is 00:34:40 once you get that, it just leads to more questions. And so... Were you surprised what you found out a lot? I mean... Yeah, I really was. There were moments where you were like, holy shit, I cannot believe this. Oh, absolutely. I mean, also, you know, I'm a comedian.
Starting point is 00:34:54 I'm not like an FBI agent. So I think a lot of the comedy is coming from like, what the fuck am I doing? Right. But also, this is someone I really loved and like it has been haunting me for 20 years. So I'm also really, it was so exciting. Like, just finally, like having some answers. but then like there was one point where I ordered her autopsy report and I was like surely once I get the autopsy that is going to be it. That is the end of all of this. Words I thought I'd never hear you say about anything. Right, right. And then once I had that information, I go, wait a minute. Okay. Like, wait. So if that's true, then that means this person did this and I need to get a hold of that person, but I can't find them on the internet. So I've talked to this other person who maybe could put me in time. Like it sent people think the autopsy report is.
Starting point is 00:35:39 the end of the show, it's not. Autopsy is like, opens up all these. It's pretty launchy. Yeah, it launched us into like way more. And yeah, but. How long was this process? Well, this started. Before you even felt like, I think I, I think I'm, I think I can close this and now
Starting point is 00:35:56 I want to make it into. Yeah. I feel like, well, it started. So my dad passed away in 2021. And that was kind of what kicked it off because basically I was back in Dallas. And I remember like roaming around my backyard, like honestly, just like a lost dog. like I didn't know what to do. I was like, I don't want to go in the house.
Starting point is 00:36:12 And I remember being like, wait, the last time I was in Dallas for a funeral, it was for Katie's. And I know how my dad died of a heart attack, but I don't know how Katie died. And that was really like the impetus for like, I need to do something with this. Like I was in such a weird frantic state. I was kind of in this like manic death spiral. And I was like, yeah, I'll just like start digging a little. And I did not think it would be a show at that point.
Starting point is 00:36:37 I was like, I just know. Just finding out the information for yourself. And definitely being like there might be something here in terms of like artistic catharsis, but never being like, this is going to be my show. Like that came so much later because it really the show is about the journey. Like I had to go through something. Yeah, yeah. And were you telling friends about everything that you were doing and they're like, holy crap.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Yeah. This is a this is something. Absolutely. And a lot of people were really happy that I was doing it because they were like, I always wondered what happened to Katie. Yeah. I wondered that for you, like going back, the younger version of you that didn't get to ask all these questions and didn't get to go through
Starting point is 00:37:16 the healing process of like grieving for information you don't have, grieving for information you now do have and like that side of it. And then you also doing that for a whole one to other people who were like, thank you. Oh, the amount of people who are like, yeah, there were so many people that were like, I have been wanting to talk about this for
Starting point is 00:37:32 20 years because basically when she passed away, it was kind of like no one wanted to say what happened. It was almost like impolite or something. And I was just like, is that a Southern thing? Is that a Dallas? I think now that I, now I think a lot of it has to do with that. But also the age of like you don't. And also honestly, this is, maybe this is like a weird way to put this. But like this is before, this was in 2004. Like there were no podcast. There was no discussion of anything. Like literally. Like no one, you wouldn't even hear about mental health. We're so much more aware of things and it like, whatever, not to like praise the digital
Starting point is 00:38:12 age. But like that is one upside is like we just know shit that we wouldn't even be curious about back then. So I think a lot. I think it was just an amalgamation of all those things. And things would just happen in a vacuum and then just go away. And maybe somebody would be like, yeah, we never really knew what happened. I know. But you don't talk about death in this certain way. Well, that is also very true. I think we handle death in a very weird way. We do. In the United States. Have you ever been to like New Orleans and seen like a funeral procession. I'm like, wait, you're allowed to act that way after someone dies? Wait a minute, we've been doing it wrong the whole time. This is the way to celebrate someone's
Starting point is 00:38:45 life. This is the way you do it. It's like there are all these things that surround people's just weirdness around that stuff that, of course, no one was asking questions. Well, I will let people know how to like consume this thing. So you can see, okay, so I'm doing the show right now. I'm June 4th in Philadelphia. I don't know when this comes out. We're going to drop this tomorrow. Oh, sick. Okay, so June 4th, Philadelphia, June 11th, Washington, D.C., June 13th, Boston, June 16th, Joe's Pub in New York City. Love that venue. And June 25th in Los Angeles at Dynasty Typewriter. So I'm doing a little June run. Great. If you're in any of those cities, and you want to see a really cool comedy show that will also make you think and make you question
Starting point is 00:39:29 all of these things that you think about through your story, and this is what a great show does. I'm sure you don't tell people this is how you should think, but you walk away saying, oh, my God. It's like we need to do. If you want a night of Hub City Comedy Week in Chicago, take it. I will give you the theater. Oh, my God. Well, also what's fun, too, about the show is I have, you know,
Starting point is 00:39:48 I basically made a documentary as well. Sure. And I ultimately want to weave all of it together, the show of the documentary. But there are pieces of, like, audio interviews within my show that I'm throwing to to kind of, like, support the narrative. So you are getting to, like, basically experience a true crime documentary. within a narrative about friendship. I can't wait to see it.
Starting point is 00:40:07 I hate that it happened, but I cannot wait to see it. No, I mean, I say it too. I'm like Katie would fucking love this show. Like she was so creative and so funny and such a like interesting dark person. Like she would have loved it. Like I feel very comfortable knowing that I don't, I don't feel. And I obviously also like the tropes of true crime and everything. A lot of people have feelings about it or like commodifying grief to make comedy like, you know,
Starting point is 00:40:32 being like, oh, you're making a show. about a thing and like oh it was convenient that she died because now you can do it da-da-da I've heard like crazy fucking shit and you're like this is my process of going to this thing I think I'm I don't know I just became something you were like what can I make a show
Starting point is 00:40:47 well exactly no it's pretty fucking inconvenient that she died yeah it's actually deeply inconvenient this is my reaction to the thing I wish I was going to comedy shows with her exactly that's what I want to be doing yeah that's such a weird way of thinking we always said that we would tell a story about our dad on stage just you know
Starting point is 00:41:03 anytime we tell stories about him or invoke stories about him, we are keeping alive his memory for people. Because there's like, people say, there's an interesting thing in this world. The people say you die twice, right? You die when you die and you're gone. And then you die when people stop telling your story and talking about who you are,
Starting point is 00:41:23 which for most people happens when all the people they know have passed on. Right. But if you can tell a story about this person that endures and reaches out to other people and connects them. And so they live forever. They live for much longer and their memory. You're doing service and memory. When is it in Los Angeles?
Starting point is 00:41:42 What's the day? It's June 25th at Dynasty Typewriter. Oh, please come. Oh, wait. I don't know if you're here. But if you are, you should come. We're not here. You're not here, but we are.
Starting point is 00:41:51 So I want to try and come and see this. It's beautiful. Let's jump in this story. Fabulous. My friend Katie. My friend Katie. Oh, and all those ticket links are on my Instagram at really Jamie Lee. Okay, really Jamie
Starting point is 00:42:03 At really Jamiely All right This next story was sent in by Hefster at Hefsterling Is that a new? Maybe now Thank you for new people Thank you
Starting point is 00:42:12 Now this is not going to have as much You know Depth and density Of what you just talked about But I think actually I think it might Maybe it will Man uses last phone call To call family on shoe
Starting point is 00:42:24 Before public intoxication arrest So he called his family Let me make a call And he picked up his night It takes it like a get smart He was like dying and it was his last phone call. Before I arrest, you arrest me. Let me call my cousin on my.
Starting point is 00:42:38 I need to take off his shoe. Are you going to remember the number? A man was arrested for public intoxication. Do you have your family on speed lace? Maybe your shoe phone drunk. You are. I'm sorry, I drunk kicked you. Public intoxication after trying to call his family using his show
Starting point is 00:42:56 when given his last chance by police. According to a Coral Springs Police Department, Arrest report. Charles Robert Strom. I feel like it's storm and they just misspelled. Charles Robert Storm. There's a Strom brewing. I'm not going to say in Augustine.
Starting point is 00:43:12 I'm not going to tell you his age. We can guess later. It was taken into custody on April 17th after officers responded to multiple calls about an intoxicated man behaving erratically near the 1,200 block of West Sample Road. It's never good when you're drunk at an address. and the address is not a house, right? Yes. When it's a block.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Where was he drunk? Between 21st and 22nd Street. Around the block. Around, in this vicinity. Yeah. In this area, he was getting away. So you got one call about him? Multiple calls.
Starting point is 00:43:47 Police say the incident began when multiple calls reported a man ripping off his clothes, lying on the middle of a parking lot, and banging on plywood. Banging on plywood. Maybe he was just trying to get a signal on his shoe. Took off his clothes. So many steps.
Starting point is 00:44:04 These things never work. These things never work. I can't get it. I have roll over minutes. I have a walkover minutes. When officers arrived, they found Strom showing signs of being extremely entomched. Yeah, no shit. All the things you discussed were just signs of being extremely intoxicated.
Starting point is 00:44:21 Yeah, exactly. It was at this point that we realized he was extremely. And it's never like an REI parking lot. It's a big lots. Oh, yeah. It's a Tilly's. Burlington. Code factory parking lot.
Starting point is 00:44:32 For sure. Tilly. Here we go. Despite being warned, records show that Strom continued to cause disturbances. So I guess they drove by and they're like, hey, why don't you just put some clothes on and stop banging the plywood?
Starting point is 00:44:46 Yeah. You can be drunk in this world. Just like, dial it back. You totally can be drunk in this world. In a parking lot, probably. You could be drunk. I'd say parking lots is one of the top locations to be drunk.
Starting point is 00:44:57 It's a safe space. For sure. Just don't start making people. people on cover. Yes, exactly. One caller told police she saw him stumbling through an alley and running in front of moving vehicles, forcing at least one driver to swerve the road to avoid hitting him. Oh my God, no. So I don't know what he's doing. I mean, you're, I want to say I hope he doesn't have a death wish, but I think he was so drunk that he thought he was in the game, Frogger. Like, you know, when you're at, I'm in this video game now. Yeah, Frogger drunk. I think I have been
Starting point is 00:45:26 Frogger Dr. Cross you road. And you yell things like, they're going to stop. Yeah. The logs coming. Right. Yeah. Exactly. Dude, dude. You got to get across this river. Officers later detained Strom,
Starting point is 00:45:39 as he approached the parking, parked vehicles in the area. While speaking of police, Strom was asked to contact a family member. Instead, investigators said he removed his shoe and began talking to it as if it was a cell phone. Now look, in his drunk defense,
Starting point is 00:45:55 that might have been as like a fuck you to the cop. Oh, you want me to fucking. call somebody you want to call my fucking shoe phone? Now if he was a comedian, because he probably doesn't have a phone. If he was a comedian if he does, it's four bars away. Right, right, right. Yeah, I know. It really is like salt in the wound.
Starting point is 00:46:11 Be like, where's your phone? You're like, oh my can you guys hang on a second? I'm getting another call. Yeah, right? Police determine his actions posed a danger to others citing his repeated attempts to run into trafficking and disruptive behavior in a public place. Strom was transported to Broward
Starting point is 00:46:27 Health Coral Springs for medical clearance before being booked into the Broward County main jail. Let's guess. Let's guess how old this man is. Charles Robert Strong. It's such a sophisticated. Charles and Robert are two very formal names. Those are older people's names.
Starting point is 00:46:45 So much dignity in the name. I'm going to say, I'm going to go with 39. That's a good guess. I think 63. Oh. I'm thinking he's up and he's, you know. Definitely goes by Chuck. Chuck Bob.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Chuck Bobby. And I'm going to go. Chuck. Oh, yeah. Chuckie Bobby. Chuckie Bobby. I'll go 36. 36, 36, 39, 63.
Starting point is 00:47:11 One of you is. My measurements. One of you is two years off. Oh. It's me. 65. You can go up or down. I'm going to Walter Payton, 34.

Starting point is 00:51:55 Wow. He's sponging off the internet. He's cave maxing. He is cave maxing. Oregon City, Oregon. A man caught living in a crawl space of Happy Valley Townhome was sentenced Tuesday, and we're going to figure out how long to so much time in prison, according to the Clackamas County District Attorney's Office.
Starting point is 00:52:15 The case began on September 3rd of last year when a neighbor spotted someone going into the crawl space of a townhome on southeast old town court and called the dispatch. Was not the guy like Laslo and real genius? Yeah, he like went into the closet and he had like went down. That was always. You ever see that movie? A long time ago. I don't know if I ever saw that.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Worth going back and watch. Val Kilmer. Oh, I don't think I saw that. Oh, you have to watch it. Oh, you have to watch. 80s. It's so much early Val Kilmer. He's so funny in this movie. Is he?
Starting point is 00:52:41 So funny. And he's like hot young Val Kilmer. Oh, wow. Hot Valcombe. Hot South East Old Town Court called the dispatch. After getting permission from the home's occupants, deputies used a halogen tool. Halogen.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Haligan, not gin. It's G-H-A-L. Remember the halogen light we had in our apartment in the 1994? How could I forget? Black, you know that one. It was the black with the up thing. With like every... Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Everyone had it and it would get so hot. I'm like, we're burning this whole apartment to lay down. With the one that's like martini glass. Yeah, with a little light bulb for an olive. And we're like, wait, we're going to burn down half of New York. That was followed by everybody in college getting the light that it was a, floor lamp, but then it had like six arms. Okay, I'm so glad you brought that up.
Starting point is 00:53:27 Because I was hoping, right, the octopus. Yes. Yeah, and it was like, retro. They were all like curly. From 1999 to 2005, yeah. Everyone either had that lamp. I had it in my dorm room. See?
Starting point is 00:53:39 I did it have like a blue and a green? No, that came later. Mine were all white bulbs. Yep. And yeah, I mean, it's like, it's just like a disgusting, like, tree. Yes. It's just like a light tree. It went with absolutely nothing.
Starting point is 00:53:52 No, it was so ugly. It was like this little space alien that you live with. You know how you requested just light coming from your lamp? We're going to now just interrogate people in several. And like a bulb would always burn out and you're like, it's fine. I have two more. So then it's like two tentacles, like sad little aquas. And you're like how many of these bulbs burn out before we start changing?
Starting point is 00:54:11 Right, right. After getting permission from the home segment, Halligan to crack open the crawl space store. Just inside, deputies found Benjamin Bacur, Beniamine Bacur, a complete stranger to the residence, a married couple and their young daughter. It's like parasite. Oh, that's terrifying.
Starting point is 00:54:28 It's a parasite room. Oregon parasite. It is. Inside the roomy crawl space. You got to love that. Why they make it sound nice. Rumi-crow space. I know everything I hear about this, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:54:39 Bacquer had finished it. Put that on your Tinder. That's what happens when you live in New York for any period of time. I know, I've been there too long. I'm like, oh, crawl space. Yeah. Sure. If you have enough room for your TVs.
Starting point is 00:54:52 This is how long you've been living in New York? No window, but there's a vent. No, yeah. I can breathe. New Yorkers would be like, what's the square footage? Yeah. Inside the roomy crawl space, Bacour had finished a comfortable living space for himself,
Starting point is 00:55:02 complete with string lights, powered via a network of power cords plugged into the townhomes electricity. This guy's still in every siphoning electricity. He also had multiple TVs. How many TVs do you need in the crawl space? That's a big cross space. Yeah, that's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:17 Oh, this is a real photo. Gaming consoles and cooking burners. That's a roomy crawl space. Investigates multiple TVs. And this is where it becomes a dumb people town story. It's like a Buffalo Wilde. Maybe. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:30 Investigators also found a sword, knives and a pipe containing methamphetamine resume. All right. Well, listen. Hey, what he does in his crawls is perfect. Hey, look, what he does by one of his many TVs. What happens in the crawl space stays in the crawls space? Apparently not.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Apparently not. You actually will go to jail. For how long? How long was Beniamine mean? Bacour was he the roommate of the family that they never knew they had, said Tiffany Escobar. No one's name is spelled correctly. It should be Escobar.
Starting point is 00:55:57 It should be Benjamin. Everything's just like a little. It's a little off. The name was Ben Amin. Ben Amin. Beniamin. Beniamin. Beniam.
Starting point is 00:56:05 B-E-N-I-M-I-N. So we want us to guess how long he was in there for? How long was he in there? In the space? In the cross space. I'm going to say a year. What do you think? Four months.
Starting point is 00:56:17 Three years. Okay, three years. I don't know. It's a number that came to me. It's roomy. He's had a lot of time to work on the place. Get your answers. You got two TVs.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Did you see the documentary about the people who built an apartment in a mall? No. No. That's amazing, though. I'm in. He had been there for two and a half months. Jay, you were the closest. I was done.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Well done. Thank you. It was a room. But they had two and a half months on meth is like 12 years. They did a lot with this place. Those are like 12 meth years. And for the people who live there, yeah, that's a lifetime. So you have to clear out the space.
Starting point is 00:56:48 You just have to clean. You just have to clean out the space. You have to always be checking your crawl spaces for rats and people, meth heads. Extra TVs. I mean, extra TVs. Why is our electric bill so high? You have to make sure. Also, aren't you hearing a TV?
Starting point is 00:57:05 Like, do you hear that stuff? You're like, who's playing the TV? I already cooked dinner. I don't know why I'm smelling something cooking right now. He had cooking plates down there. He had meth. This guy was just, he was, I mean, he's an. opportunist.
Starting point is 00:57:19 Sure. So you got to give him that credit. No, my first thought is this is how expensive it is to buy a house in America. I know. You got to crawl space. You got to crawl space? Yeah. I mean, yeah, the fact that he like tried to make it his own with the lights.
Starting point is 00:57:32 Kind of makes you sad. You wonder. You do wonder. But also when I saw that picture, I go, I'm not seeing any lights. No. No. There were no. I didn't really get a sense of design.
Starting point is 00:57:41 He needed a, I didn't get a, I've been watching a lot of lakefront. Dacor. Lakefront Bargan. Yeah, I didn't see any daycare. Wait, what's Lakefront bargain? Lakefront bargain-hurt renovations my new kick. I love all these fucking. Lakefront bargain hunt.
Starting point is 00:57:53 They just had those. That where they would just find a bargain on the lake. And then renovation is the first half is them picking it. And the second half is them renovating it. I love shows like that. Did you see the cross-based? How about illegal cross-based renovation? Illegal crawl-space renovation?
Starting point is 00:58:07 I would watch it. Wait, there was a... Renovation Aloha is currently my favorite one. It's a married couple in Honolulu. Just renovating. renovating like old Hawaii and you know it's Hawaii so they're getting these like dilapidated completely roofed-down house but it still costs in like 1.3 million but it's a great show oh I want to watch that I want to watch there was two women who used to go around and renovate like motels they only did one
Starting point is 00:58:33 season of it I would watch that you find it it's so good I was obsessed with it it sounds so good what was what was the name of the show like no vacancy or no I forgot what it was or or do not I'm guaranteed. A listener will tell us. A listener will tell us. Please do disturb. That's great. Please do that.
Starting point is 00:58:52 Please do disturb, is it? All right. So we're going to guess two final things. Okay. How long did he get in prison for? Okay. For a lot longer in two and a half months. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:59:03 What do you think? Oh, we guess it now? Yeah. He's like, can I stay in solitary confinement? It feels like the old crawl space. No, he actually lived in a crawl space in the prison. He's like, this is an upgrade. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:12 He's not looking over my shoulder. Wait. You guys bring the food? He's like, thank you. I have a bathroom. I have a bathroom in here? Wait, people are allowed to... Everybody can know I'm here.
