Violent confrontation with axe and knife unfolds at Boston Public Library No serious injuries reported, so that's why we can do this story cuz no one was hurt Yeah, no, sir, but when's the last time you were at a library Catherine? It sounds like that was just a Boston flash mob It's a meat cube. Oh, you don't like the Celtics?
Starting point is 00:04:01 Yeah, right. You're wicked dumb. Wait, axe versus knife? Or one person could have had both. Axe and knife, true. Is it one of those small axes you take camping? Small hatchet? Well, and who is the dumb one?
Starting point is 00:04:15 You know how they say, like, you brought a knife to a gunfight. You brought a hatchet to a knife fight, or you brought a knife to a hatchet fight? You brought an axe to a knife fight. Okay. Or a knife to an axe fight. But isn't an axe like the machine gun of knives? An axe you can hit a lot harder, but a knife you can be a little quicker with.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Jab, jab, jab, jab, jab. Oh yeah, that's a good point. Three shots in with the knife and then, OJ used a knife, he didn't use an axe. Like let's be honest, all right? You really want to get the job done. Allegedly. Cleaner.

Starting point is 00:04:50 Now do they both stumble? None of them were planning on being in the library. No. When they packed their axe that day. But also this is Boston, this could be like a children's reading program and they each get to bring their own weapon. Dude, I'm gonna bring my axe.
Starting point is 00:05:04 It was sorta fuckin fucking curious George. George. It's, it's actually, that was the clown performing for the children in the library that day. He got mad. He's like, he went into his bag. He literally went into his bag. So if, here's what I think, if Gallagher became a serial killer, he'd use an axe. Yeah, Gallagher too, a knife.

Yeah, if your name is Noctis Farrell, you're in a Wes Anderson movie. But Noctis Farrell is someone who is like in deep need of sex and can only do it at night. He's Noctis Farrell. Noctis Farrell like lives at the library where he works. Yeah, no he DJs at the library.

Located within the library, the News Feed Cafe.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Describe the initial moments of the altercation. This is what Noctis Ferrell had to say. Quote, he was already like having the axe in his hand, waving it around, and he was screaming at the other guy, do you wanna die, do you wanna die. I think this guy needs to be more well read if he's working at a library cafe. He was like with an F.
Starting point is 00:08:59 The newsreader's cafe. News Feed Cafe. Sorry. As Noctus Ferrell recounted it. I get it, cause you're feeding people. Yes. The Newspaper's Cafe. News Feed Cafe.

Starting point is 00:09:23 He did swing at the other guy with the axe a couple of times. But, hold on, I got you here. I mean, can you imagine that? You see just a guy with an axe taking swipes at another guy and you're just working at the newsfeed cafe. That's the point. I don't even think I intervene. I'm on break, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Dan, you like me. And I'm a big intervener. Dan's a big like, how's everybody doing? But I think even that, axe is out. I'm a lot of like back. Yeah, everybody, everyone else. You're now covering other people up. Axe is scarier than Gunn, you could say. Yeah, because I feel like Gunn
Starting point is 00:09:54 could wipe everyone out in a hot second, but Axe is like, we don't know what he's gonna do. I will say this, Gunn, I do feel like I have a chance of talking to you. Right. Axe, you left the house with an axe. So like whatever's going on started years ago. Knife, you could have been camping.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Sure. And just shut up and had a bad day. A handyman, you're just. Gone, you could be scared. Right. Right. Now, axe, you're too far into your problem. I'll choose axe, but axe is like. But if you throw an axe at someone, it is gonna stick.
Starting point is 00:10:24 If you throw a knife at someone, you might be able to like block it or pull it out real quickly. But an axe is gonna go. Yeah, the play is probably, I hope the axe gets lodged into your forearm. Right. And if you get hit by an axe and you don't die, you're gonna, for the rest of your life,
Starting point is 00:10:42 people are gonna know you were hit by an axe. It's not a wound. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're for the rest of your life, people are gonna know you were hit by an axe. Not a wound to hide. What is not? You're like the dude from Gladiator. Yes. Yeah, that's right. They're like, was that the Newsweek fight? Newsreaders.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Newsfeed. Newsfeed. Newsfeed. All right, here we go. Newsfeed. Farrell, okay, he did swing at the other guy with the axe a couple of times, but he missed every time.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Farrell added, described. Well, that's kind of some shade, isn't it? Yeah, he missed every time. I wouldn't have missed is what he's trying to say. Where are we sitting at, News Feed? Let's sit in the reference section. So they always try to sit you there first. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:14 You have to be like, no, we don't wanna be there. It's drafty, let's go over there. Farrell added, describing the tense situation before he decided to alert his manager of the unfolding violence. Wait, he's describing it to NBC boss? And then he's like, hey manager of the unfolding violence. So wait, he's just describing it to NBC Boss and then he's like, hey, let me tell you. Hey, there's someone with an ax over here.
Starting point is 00:11:29 Thank you, NBC Boss, and for being here, but we should probably solve this. The second man. You're in the way. Equipped. You know what's funny too, is if somebody was like, guys, take it outside, they're like, that's where we started.
Starting point is 00:11:39 We started outside. We took it inside. That's what they said. You wanna go inside? You wanna take this inside? Meet me inside. I'll meet you inside. Cash me inside. That's what they said. You wanna go inside? You wanna take this inside? Meet me inside. I'll meet you inside.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Cash me inside. If you're man enough. The second man equipped with a knife then tackled the axe wielding individual. Oh yeah. Is this person just learning how to write? Like they're like, we need to, we can't say man. We can't say, we gotta keep changing.
Starting point is 00:11:59 It's very progressive for Boston though. Yeah, equipped with a knife. One guy went after the other guy. All right. Individual inside the venue Very progressive for Boston, though. Yeah, yeah. Equipped with a one guy, what after the other guy. All right, individual inside the venue amidst the backdrop of books and the quiet murmurs of weekday morning patrons engrossed in their reading. Someone's got a creative writing needle.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Uh-oh. Hold on. Somebody got a couple of extra friends. Put this story on the shelf. Listen, he wants to get in the library. Dude, I went to North East. I took one course at Boston College. He wants to get in the library. It's good. Dude, I went to North East. I took one course at Boston College.
Starting point is 00:12:28 The second man equipped. It was the best of times, it was the wickedest of times. Dude. You like apples? All right, here we go. The second man equipped with a knife then tackled the axe, wielding individual inside the venue amidst the backdrop of books and the quiet murmurs
Starting point is 00:12:42 of a weekday morning patrons engrossed in their reading. Which were just. It's like a regular Henry David Thoreau. Which were disrupted by the, this is way too long of a sentence. Which were disrupted by the scuffle that ensued right in front of the checkout counter, semicolon. Policed arrived shortly thereafter and arrested both.
Starting point is 00:12:59 What is this, a Terrence Malick movie? Participants, comma. Oh God! Fortunately no serious injuries were reported as per turn to 10. That, the sentence took longer than the fight. It's very true. The incident has raised concerns about public safety
Starting point is 00:13:12 and police staffing. The Boston Police Patrolmen's Association recently highlighted the shortage of nearly 600 officers. Look, you wanted to fund the police? This is what you're gonna get. Right, you're gonna have to have librarians defending you. Yeah, and they can't fight off axe wielding individuals. No, you gotta give each librarian a flamethrower.
Starting point is 00:13:30 You gotta give each librarian a flamethrower. And they can't blow those same throws amidst the quiet murmurs of people reading. Give it a torch. They're gonna light all those pages on fire. On fire. The library clashed. The murmurs, they're gonna silence the murmurs. A library clashed. The murmurs, they gotta silence the murmurs.
Starting point is 00:13:46 A place, Silence of the Murmurs is a, That's good. Is the library version of Silence of the Lambs. This also proves the theory that in Boston, everywhere you go, someone's fought here. Yeah. That, I mean, there's just a plaque everywhere. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:02 They go, they go, you want the Tale of Two Cities without blood on it, or you want the Tale of Two Cities without blood on it, or you want the Tale of Two Cities with blood on it? It's six dollars extra. We'll take the non-blood one. Also, I love that in this whole story, one bystander. Which means there's probably 15 other people that are like, I'm not dealing with this.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Or they just pretend it wasn't happening. It's Boston, they're like, ah! Can we get a quote? No. Nope. The library clash, a place for community engagement, underscores the city's challenges. NBC Boston reported that Farrell described the scene vividly.
Starting point is 00:14:31 Noctis? Noctis Farrell described the scene vividly. The guy with the axe turns around and starts walking in the library, and that's when the second guy tackles him in the middle of the library, and they started fighting on the floor. This is like Peter Griffin in a chicken.
Starting point is 00:14:45 I know. This is beautiful. The guy started talking, they walk to the library, then the other guy tackles him inside the library and then they fall down the wall. Inside the library. They're all in the library.
Starting point is 00:14:56 This is also one of those things, I don't care how many times I've said this over the course of years of doing this podcast, this is also one of those things that if you had two shows later that night and This happened in front of you. This is your opening story. Oh Dan. This is 25 Stage with that energy of like do you people want to know what I saw in your city today? At a library, you'd almost feel like I need to write everyone involved a letter
Starting point is 00:15:23 I need to do a positive review of news feeders and go up and be like, thank you. Thank you for this goal. I think it's just called the news feed cafe, but I think news feeders is better. Can we change it? And everyone eats out of troughs. It's actually just a dog feeds store in the library. That's also where I lose the audience. So like it's news feeds. It's news feeds Feeds Cafe!
Starting point is 00:15:45 I call it Nudes Feeds. They give everybody a little bucket and ear straps and you just feed in your mouth. It's Nudes Feeder, actually. That's what they get used to. That's my Instagram. Follow me at Nudes Feeds. It's a nudist colony at a library.
Starting point is 00:16:00 A library in a nudist colony. I forgot my library card. Why? I don't have pockets. I don't have pockets. You think I'm gonna put it in the folds of this? They lift up their boobs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:11 Wait, so. What a gift. This is a gift. Dan, you told a 20 minute story on stage about a guy pulling into a parking space. Yeah, that's how I closed my special. In Boston. At a Boston fight.

Starting point is 00:19:46 is you don't have to do what we do in standup. You don't have to go back and go, I need a joke here. Where in this you get to go, no, I just need this to be entertaining or good or compelling versus like only funny. Well, it also teaches you, as we go in our standup, as we move forward with that, you are constantly asking yourself,
Starting point is 00:20:04 what am I trying to say? Yeah, yeah, yeah. This isn't just a funny story. It forces you to be like, okay, I have this unbelievable wall-full-out story. Thematically, how does this fit? Where does it go? Yeah, what am I saying about the world?
Starting point is 00:20:14 What am I saying about myself in the world? What do I wanna draw from this? And it might only be a line or two lines or whatever, or you sprinkle it throughout, but it does force you to contextualize all of your comedy, and we love it. It's been a great thing. Also did a week on Night Court, which recently,

People follow you and check your tour dates? It's kathenblainford.com. I'm everywhere that there's a 90 seat room.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Yes, I love it. And she's super funny. We just did a show with her and she was great. Super funny. We did a hard show where the crowd was tough and she was amazing. So fun to watch. Are you guys ready for the story?
Starting point is 00:22:25 Story number two, sent in by Liz Haggerty, at Liz Haggerty, confused traveler, mistake strangers home for his Airbnb. Sure, yeah, that has to happen a lot. That's like getting in the wrong Uber, like a car pulls up, will you ever send one out? I've told this story many times, I think, on this show.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Please tell it again. We had had one kid and we were about, my wife was fully pregnant, it was the baby moon for, we were just going away for, or it might have been the first kid. First kid. It was the first kid, so we had, so we didn't have a kid, so it was our baby moon
Starting point is 00:22:58 and we went down to Playa del Carmen to this beautiful place called Ical del Mar. Oh, I remember this. And like, the rooms were their own separate little buildings that with like all this little bungalows with like all this foliage and whatnot and they were not well marked. My wife was like, can you please go get me
Starting point is 00:23:16 something to drink like we didn't have anything in the room, she's like, can you go get it in the middle of the night? So I go out to the front, to the front desk. I'm so tired. I go and I get her water, bubbly water, whatever. Noctus Feral. I was in my Noctus Feral mode.
Starting point is 00:23:32 So I come back and I am walking back, basically sleepwalking back, and I go to open the door and I just open the door to our room and I see a woman who is not my wife just getting nailed. So your wife wanted to have sex with two people? Right, so I'm like, and her ploy was to get you
Starting point is 00:23:52 to go to the front desk for water? So I open the door and I just see a woman who's not my wife and- I need you to paint the picture. Missionary from behind. He's up, she's down. He's up, she's down. Aren't we all? She's up, she's down. He's up, she's down. She's up, she's down.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Wait, are they? She's on her back. Are these Mississippi bodies? Are these LA bodies? We're in the Playa, baby. This is the town we're visiting. Anyone can vacation anywhere. For everybody in my mind,
Starting point is 00:24:16 everybody visiting in Mexico is sexy in my mind. Okay, okay, they're all sexy. I don't know why. So, he was a bigger guy, but like just taller guy, bigger guy, and he is just going at it. And I just stand there for a second and it takes me like a whole, a whole like three beats
Starting point is 00:24:30 to be like, wait, that's not my wife. Wait, that's not me. Like in a talking head song, this is not my wife. Somehow you looked both of them in the eyes. I was like, I'm standing there and I'm just like, wait a minute, this isn't my wife, this isn't my thing. And then I was like, oh, this isn't my room. And I shut the door and I come back and like.
Starting point is 00:24:51 No, the funny thing is, if you had gone, but I do think this is my room. What are you guys doing in my room? So he went and he took a dump. So the rest of the trip, I thought they had seen me. Of course they did not see me because it was dark I thought they had seen me. Of course they did not see me because it was dark and they didn't see me. And I didn't get a good look at their faces.
Starting point is 00:25:11 And there were a couple of couples that looked kind of alike. This is your white lotus. So this is my white lotus. So the whole time we were trying to think who was icing us out to see who was, who knew that you stepped on them. Who knew that I stood and watched. That's so funny.
Starting point is 00:25:25 You never found them. Never found them. I imagine you go, you close the door right and it goes, and then they both go, did you just fart? And he goes, no, did you just fart? And now it's awkward for them. The door shouldn't have opened. That is crazy.
Starting point is 00:25:39 That's also a cool moment for you to find out that watching people have sex isn't a turn on me. It's not my thing. You're just like, oh, I'm not into this. I'm not Jacob Snake Roberts. That's also a cool moment for you to find out that watching people have sex isn't a turn-off for you. It's not my thing. You're just like, oh, I'm not into this. I'm not Jacob Snake Roberts. Eee! All right, anyway.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Well, this takes place in Miami, which for some reason makes it worse to me. Like, Miami, you going to the wrong house, anything can happen. Say hello to my little friend. Yeah, there's somebody in the corner, throwing fireworks. A visitor to South Florida was sound asleep
Starting point is 00:26:07 when he got a rude awakening. He was inside a house he thought he had rented, but it turned out there was a major mix-up. Quote, this is the best possible outcome of breaking into someone's home and spending the night in their bed, said visitor Paul Drexler. Drexler.
Starting point is 00:26:23 CKS, no X. The Drexler. The Glide, Paul the Glide. Drexler. Drexler. CKS, no X. The Drexler. The Glide, Paul the Glide. Drexler. Drexler, no X. D-R-E-C-K-S. Hell yeah. He changed that.
Starting point is 00:26:35 He did something wrong with when he was next. Do you know what the word Drek means in Yiddish? It means shit. It means shit. Yeah, yeah, the Drexler. He's a real Drek. He's a real Drek. This place is just. This is a Miami Goldilocks story. Yeah, yeah's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The Drexler. He's a real drek, he's a real drek.
Starting point is 00:26:45 This is a Miami Goldilocks story. Yeah, yeah, for sure. And that coke was just right. Drexler made an honest mistake after spending the night in what he thought was his Airbnb, and it turned out it wasn't. I had accidentally got the address wrong. Of course!
Starting point is 00:27:00 Going from the Airbnb app into Google Maps. The address became the house right next door. Door was open. Yes. He had just arrived in Miami to officiate a friend's wedding. Already a good time guy. How many have you done? How many have you guys done?
Starting point is 00:27:16 We've done two. I've done one. Yeah, yeah. Where were yours at though? Ours was in Pasadena. That was a really fun one. I love that. And then we did another one. I forgot where we did one in
Starting point is 00:27:27 Was it oh in Nashville? You don't even know them. No, no, they were fans. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. That's awesome Oh my god, you did one where st. Martin st. Martin So I've done one in Milwaukee. Oh nice great time. I'm not a martini I won one in Milwaukee. Oh nice. Great time. I'm not joking. St. Martin of United States. Of Northern United States.
Starting point is 00:27:47 I just got asked to do another one and that is gonna be in Italy. Oh, where? Can't wear. And I don't know the specifics yet. But they told me. They'll fly you out? They go one of the things they wanna do
Starting point is 00:27:57 is they're getting a DJ. But they also are hiring an accompanist saxophone player. I was about to say, that's what they had in St. Martin? Yes, it's the best combo. Dude, DJ with sax, there's nothing that'll ever be there. It's fantastic. Makeup sax. Yes, it's like Tina Turner, you can play like Kygo
Starting point is 00:28:18 and Tina Turner with a sax on the side. And you're like, it's- I recently had a fan email into my show, The Midnight Air, and they were like, you should put on your Patreon that for $5,000 you'll officiate a wedding because it may only happen once or twice, but do you care about 10K? And I was like, I should.
Starting point is 00:28:34 No, Dan, you need to write the book. I feel like here we go, these two. Dan, if you write this book, you'll be asked to officiate 50 weddings a year. Yeah, they want me to write a book. Dan, tell her the name of the book. I'll Dance with Your Aunt how to be the best guest at a wedding.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Right? It has to happen, Dan. You're right, you're not wrong. No, we're gonna make it happen. I know. Only for a small portion of the province. You know I love you. Just kidding.
Starting point is 00:28:57 You're definitely doing the foreword. Okay, so this guy officiates a friend wedding. After a long day of traveling, he got to what he thought was his unlocked room around Anyone a quick guess 1 a.m. Okay 1230 4 p.m. 2 a.m Even following the destructions even following the instructions his Airbnb had left behind quote in the bedroom The bed was made and remember he's in the wrong house
Starting point is 00:29:22 The bed was made and ready to go there were even two clean folded towels waiting for me what so I don't know who does this in their day-to-day life. So this psycho keeps two folded towels on his bed. I don't want a victim blame but that is the number one indicator that you are at an Airbnb. Why was it in the shape of a crane? That's so funny. No construction. A swan. A swan. A swan. A swan. Why were there rose petals with his initials? Why were there mints with his initials? Why were there mints on the pillow? Why am I not in love?
Starting point is 00:29:49 But wouldn't you sort of? The welcome card. Wait, is this someone else's Airbnb that he owns? No, it's someone's house. Their house. Psycho. They're living like they are in Airbnb. Psycho. If I walk in and there are folded towels on the bed,
Starting point is 00:30:03 obviously I am in the wrong place, but that is an indicator that I'm probably in the right place. Correct. For sure. He wanted him to be there. He was waiting for it. The spider called the fly. Why exactly? Why is there a thing that says welcome to the Hilton Honor's program?
Starting point is 00:30:19 Wait, is it, why did, was there a card that gave the wifi code? Right. Why was there a little booklet of fun things to do around the house? Why do I? Can you imagine just walking into the wrong house? Right. But there's nothing indicating that this is a normal man's house.
Starting point is 00:30:37 There's no dog, there's no picture frames of people, there's no crumbs on the counter. There's no food left. Yeah, like a plate of half-eaten chicken wings. This is the owner's fault, this is crazy. If you keep your house like an Airbnb and someone mistakenly walks in, that's on you. So you're victim blaming.
Starting point is 00:30:56 I'm not, I'm not saying. Did you see what the house was wearing? Okay, here you go. And nothing, it had nothing, it was pristine. He fell asleep, woke up the next morning to a very confused homeowner. To wit, I would also go, where was the homeowner? Right. What are you doing? Why are you showing up? Wait, do you know my story? No. My crazy story from when I worked at Jack's. Did I tell you the story on this? I'll be tight with this. I worked at this place called Jack's Jewish Alcoholics, chemically dependent persons and significant others. Thank you. It was a supplementary, they did programs
Starting point is 00:31:29 for people who were in 12-star program. So I was just working there as an assistant, it was our first job so we could do comedy in New York. And I became friends with some of the young people who were in the program. And this one guy was like, hey do you wanna, he was a recovery driver, he was like, do you wanna see fish with me in like Providence, Rhode Island? And I was like, yeah, I'll go see fish with you. That won't be a trigger for you and you'll read that at all.
Starting point is 00:31:55 No, not at all. Well, so this is how dumb I was. So I'm like, yeah, I'll meet you up there because I went up with someone else or somebody and he said, great. And I was like, I have a place for us to stay. Our friend who goes to Brown, she's not gonna be in town and she's letting us stay at her place and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:32:09 So I'm like, let's go, we're doing it. It's like five girls who are still seniors at Brown. And so we go to the concert and I run into other friends before I meet this guy and they're like, here, smoke this. And I was like, I can't. I'm meeting a guy and they're like, do it. It's light.
Starting point is 00:32:26 And I was like, all right, if it's light, it's not bad. I got so high. I wasn't trying to get high. Then I had to find this guy. Now I have to hang out with him. And he's like freaking out and Jonesing. And I'm like, oh man, I can't even hold a conversation with him.
Starting point is 00:32:40 And then I'm like, let's go get food afterwards. I have to be with this guy while I like come down and become normal again. We get pizza. we go back to our friend's house. I crash up and- No iPhone. I mean, you're just finding the place. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Finding the house, we go into the house, I got the address, we go in, and I crash. I guess he wants to sleep on the couch. I don't know why he's, and he's like a bearded dude with long hair. And I go up and I sleep in one of the rooms and at 7.30 in the morning, there's a scream
Starting point is 00:33:13 and it's one of my friend's roommates who clearly doesn't know that I'm gonna be there, also is not aware that like a bearded man would be laying on their couch and she starts freaking out and freaking out on this guy So like in a matter of like 18 hours, you know, this guy nine reasons to relapse I'm like, I'm never saying yes So Drexler wakes up the next morning to a confused homeowner the The next morning, I get woken up by a knock on the door.
Starting point is 00:33:46 I was surprised the guy even knocked on his own door. No. He goes, hey, can I help you? This is my house. And I'm like, no, this is the Airbnb that I rented. Oh, no? Right. The homeowner then takes out a hatchet.
Starting point is 00:34:01 I'm joking. Ah! Hold on, it's in the library. He goes, no, this is my house, said Drexler. That's what the guy told him. I could have been woken up to an angry homeowner. Things really could have been bad. Do you wanna see what Drexler looks like?
Starting point is 00:34:14 Yes, I do. Give me a Drexler. Aw. It says sweet. Oh god, he's sweet. He also, he truly does look like he changed his name in his look. Like he's had his name changed.
Starting point is 00:34:23 He looks like if he was wearing something different, he could have been January Sexy. That's what I'm saying. The smile helps a lot. He looks like he's January Sexy, not January Sexy. He's January 7th. The smile helps a lot. He's January 7th after some thinking.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Yes. After some reflection. A great woman turned him into an undecided voter. After storm, instead of storming the castle, he just rode his ATV around. You said castle by the way, which is so funny. Storming the castle. That is great.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Well we are in a. He stormed White Castle. He stormed the White Castle. Stormed the White Castle. Instead of storming the White House, he stormed the White Castle. Instead of storming the White House, he stormed a White Castle. He stormed a Capitol Records. The homeowner, also you know he just, this looks like it's gorgeous outside. This is just a backdrop at the Bass Bird shop.
Starting point is 00:35:14 That's where he got this photo taken. All in mills. Yeah. The homeowner showed him out and Drexler found his actual Airbnb next door. In hindsight, now I look back, all the clues were there. This is not the right Airbnb, but at two o'clock your brain is like, this is it, this is the one. I would say the clues were there that you were at the right Airbnb. Yeah, I can't blame you at all.
Starting point is 00:35:33 Shame on this guy. Shame on this guy. Also, put this guy on a list. This guy needs to be on an FBI list. Also you should be having, your house should be an Airbnb. You're already doing nine of the things. That's the list. I feel bad for the newlyweds because you know this now took up 80% of his officiating. Let me tell you guys, sometimes you think
Starting point is 00:35:54 you found the right one. All the signs are there. The bed feels right. But it is until later that you realize what you've been waiting for was right next to you. No! Write the book, Dan. Dan, write the book. It is until later that you realize what you've been waiting for was right next to you. Write the book, Dan. Dan, write the book.
Starting point is 00:36:09 And I decided to look back, all the clues were there. He says, now it's a funny story to tell after spending the night in a stranger's home in Miami, and he lived, he could have come in shooting or could have called the police or a combination of both. He said in an Instagram video, obviously a number of bad things could have happened. The way he reacted was so accommodating to the mistake. He's gonna rate him five stars. It was definitely the best possible outcome
Starting point is 00:36:31 that could have occurred. He said after this experience, he'll double, even triple check the address next time he stays at an Airbnb. I've stayed at hundreds of Airbnbs and never had this happen before. Hundreds, relax. What do you do for a living?
Starting point is 00:36:44 Hundreds. He's an offici do you do for a little hundreds? It's an officiator. Yeah, exactly. He's an official Airbnb. Oh, that's story number two. All right, well we got a little taste. Story number three is, it's a woman getting her revenge on a boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Wow, wow, wow. In the most fun way possible, we're all gonna see which side we come on. This is Dumb People Town. Katherine Blanford has a new special, Catholic Cowgirl. It's on YouTube. You're gonna wanna watch it and then send it to friends. We'll be right back. Look, as far as I know, no man wants to lose their hair. I started thinning and losing hair in my late 20s, early 30s, and you know what? You know what mistake I made?

Skylight sends me a little message after like maybe a couple weeks, it says, hey, you haven't sent any photos
Starting point is 00:40:45 to Rosemary in a while, and that reminds me to stay connected to her, and that allows her to feel connected to me, and sometimes she'll call me, or she'll text me, and she'll say, I just saw that photo.

Better help is sort of like that blanket that you get to put around yourself, but you can have much longer lasting effects of feeling good, feeling happy, giving yourself some comfort. I am a big proponent of therapy. I'm a big proponent of, for me, it's helped me deal with recognizing and processing grief,
Starting point is 00:44:34 but it's also really helped me recognize and process the need to be a more excited person in my personal life. Sometimes I struggle with that. I have no problem telling you that because going to therapy has also made me realize it's okay to not be this, you know, this idea of perfect.
Starting point is 00:44:56 And knowing these things about myself, like that I just listed, that gives me true comfort. Therapy, having a place and a professional that you can speak to about your lives downs but also your ups, about your blind spots and things you've been trying to see is wonderful. And BetterHelp is phenomenal for bringing all of those positive actions and seeing those things and realizing things and celebrating things, they're great. They're just great for that.
Starting point is 00:45:32 So if you're thinking of starting therapy, I implore you, give BetterHelp a try, especially this time of year because you know on the other side of all that stuff in the car, there's a lot of times where some people maybe find themselves being a little lonely. And that's really healthy to
Starting point is 00:45:46 process too, because it's okay to feel lonely. It's just not okay to stay that way emotionally. Right?

Starting point is 00:48:26 She rammed her car into her boyfriend on the way to therapy following a day of arguing. I mean. A day. If she. Maybe a year. If you are arguing with her, do not walk in front of the car that she's sitting in. Also, if you feel the urge to run over somebody, you shouldn't. It's over.
Starting point is 00:48:43 That's the end of the relationship. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's like. Ah! She's maybe not sure about that. You're like, I can still change it. If you, I mean, drive over him. Let me change that. If you act on the urge to drive over somebody, if you act on it.

That's right. Okay, now it's time for our stuff. I will admit we need to talk. Now we've got something to talk about. It's such an expensive, you've got to justify the price.
Starting point is 00:49:13 This is the Bonnie Raitt song. Right. Let's give them something to talk about. I call this therapy. It's like, how about love? Remember John Caminara's bit of the guy who shot his wife in the head? Yeah. A bullet in the neck? Got a bullet in the neck.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Yeah, it's like now you can't win an argument ever again with this dude. She's like, I think you're staying out too late. And he's like, oh, what are you gonna do? Run me over with your car? Yeah, he goes, I think I still have tire marks on my shoulder. Is that what you think?
Starting point is 00:49:38 Hang on, let me see how I feel underneath your car. Actually, it was on the hood. It's a real tete-a-tete to stay in front of someone's car that's gonna drive you over. Oh my God. Because it means both people don't believe in the commitment of the other person. Yeah, they're sharing it each other.
Starting point is 00:49:52 It's definitely a do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hands on the hood, eye contact. I'm gonna do it. And a little bit of him was pumped when she did it because he was like, I win, I win, I win. Now I win, now I hold the relationship capital. Yes. I hold more than you do. Yes, I win, I win. Now I win, now I win. Now I hold the relationship capital. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:05 I hold more than you do. Yes, as he's bleeding out. According to a police affidavit obtained by law and crime. You got this. Veronica. Okay. Uh, Roline. Was there an F in there?
Starting point is 00:50:15 No. Veronica Roline. Roline, Roline, Roline. Gast is facing charges of second degree assault and criminal vehicular operation of bodily harm, gross negligence, and domestic assault. The incident happened Wednesday when Gassed drove with her boyfriend to therapy session
Starting point is 00:50:34 to work on their relationship. Her name is Gassed. I mean, this is what I'm saying too. It's Gassed. Oh, okay. Which, she Gassed the car up. Yeah, a little bit, yeah. GST.
Starting point is 00:50:43 While in the car, the boyfriend decided to break up and asked Gast to then take him home. You gotta break up on the way out the door. Wait, they're in the car. And somehow he's gonna end up in front of this car getting run over. Instead, Gast allegedly stopped the car in the middle of the road and ordered him to get out.
Starting point is 00:51:01 The victim exited, walked to the front of the vehicle, heading for the sidewalk as he passed in front of the car, gas locked eyes with him, and accelerated trying to run him over the evidence. This is like Pulp Fiction. The boyfriend, exactly, rolled over the hood and smashed into the windshield, shattering it. He suffered a laceration to his right elbow.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Okay. Big deal. Remember that video, that little vine? I'm gonna say something. it do it say it say it I'm I don't I don't care that you broke your elbow Defendant I'm gonna say it I was like, I don't care that you broke your elbow One thing that no one ever you can like we really we didn't know how good we had it when vine was Almost every capacity of life.
Starting point is 00:51:46 It was such a better world. What's that in your hand? A knife, no! Anyway, the defendant admitted that she was pulling away. That as she was pulling away, she hit the victim with her vehicle. As she was pulling away. Pulling away means backing up.
Starting point is 00:52:02 That's not, I'm pulling away. That's like the guy who's like, I don't mean to make you pregnant. I was pulling out, I stayed in, it went forward. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you were out of my life. I couldn't see you anymore. I was still in, but you were out of my life. Slow down, and the defendant said she slowed down
Starting point is 00:52:20 and stopped to call the police on herself. Wow, the defendant. You know he said something under his breath when he got out. And she was like, what? And he shut the door. She goes, what was that? Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:29 Over bit. Yes. But with the car. What was that? I'm gonna start dating your best friend. Look, your honor, the front of my car said, what did you say? Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:52:39 No, the front of my car said, excuse me? So the defendant said that she was in shock at hitting the victim so she did not stop right away but let off the gas, gassed, let off the gas. Gas told officers the windshield crack wasn't caused by his body but by him punching it. It's unclear whether gas sustained any injuries. This is a woman, I'll tell you this,
Starting point is 00:53:00 who's been to therapy and knows how to flip the story. That's right! She flipped it! She flipped it like he flipped on the hood! She flipped it on him. The police report said the couple had been dating for how long? Oh. How long have they been dating?
