Thanks to a quick-thinking neighbor in his Batman pajamas. All right. That is another. And he did it with, and they were footy pajamas. So, like, he was sliding across the floor.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Also, look at how they. They try to glom on to Batman pajamas success. Okay, the police department. Thanks to a quick thinking neighbor in Batman pajamas, another burglary suspect was put behind bars. Don't rope this into your ones that happened before. No, because he detained this person, they had enough time to get someone else down to.
Starting point is 00:07:12 No, but I think they're like, hey, you know, all we do is put burglary suspects behind bars. Thanks to this guy, another one in our long record of putting people away. Oh, right. At approximately what? All we do is catch touchdowns. That's right. All we do is win, win, at approximately what time did the burglar, the Batman

At approximately 203. I'm going to need you to be more specific than that. You just say at 2. Why are you rounding so much? At approximately 20 seconds. On Wednesday, police responded to a burglary in progress at home in 7. Southeast Cape Coral, but when they arrived on the scene, they found the suspect already detained by Kyle MyVet. Okay.

Starting point is 00:08:54 No. Right? Hey, you know what really hurt last night? I slept on my grappling hook. I thought about this. The criteria that we put on a nap versus the criteria we put on going to bed.

Starting point is 00:10:26 That's funny. All right, so Maivet told detectives he had gone to bed when his home security cameras alerted him to someone breaking into his vehicle. Why does his Batman thing say Wuhan on the front of him? Okay, hang on the same. So Maivit still sporting pajamas, went outside to investigate,
Starting point is 00:10:39 saw the suspect rummaging through his truck. Moments later, Maivit found the same suspect in his neighbor's garage and detained him until officers arrived. How? How did he detain him? He said the suspect identified as, Thattering.

Starting point is 00:12:43 So he did it. Foiled again. We don't know how. And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for you, medley neighbor. You're conflating. So here's the deal. Now, Scooby-Doo, I got.
Starting point is 00:12:55 I don't know how old he, wait, do I know how old he is? How old Medvedev is? MyVet. My vet. They don't say how old my vet is, okay? Which is a bummer. Timeless. He's timeless.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Let me check my mind-chless. I know it happened at 203 a.m. They don't say how old he is, but they do say how old the other guy is. But as I was reading this article, you know, sometimes in articles, they say, if you like this, here's another article. Yeah, yeah. Another one came through that I have to read. So this is a two for one.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Okay. When one California man recently walked into a regional bank, he wasn't expecting to leave a hero. So it's another hero doing something. Michael Armis Sr. Was at a bank in, was at Bank of the West depositing a check on Monday when police say, Eduardo Placencia, you got to save the Placencia after. We ate it, my wife. You had it. We turned it in a pills.
Starting point is 00:13:54 You ate the Eduardo? Okay. Passed a note to the teller claiming he had explosives and demanding money. How old was Eduardo Placencia, do you think? 31. 28. 24. 42 years old.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Oh, jeez. Armas said he recognized the suspect as a former neighbor and friend of his daughter and immediately knew he needed to step in. He said he heard irritation and depression in the substance. out of the suspect's voice. So I approached him and I asked him what's wrong? You don't have a job? Said Armas. He said there's nothing
Starting point is 00:14:28 in this town for me. Nothing in this town for me. I just want to go to prison. The man then said he tried to comfort the suspect. He's like Sean and Goodwill Hunting. Suggested the two go outside. Ultimately the situation ended. Ultimately
Starting point is 00:14:42 the situation ended. Don't do this to me. Don't do this to me. Don't do this to me plus not you. Not you. Ultimately, the situation ended in a hug. Wow. And an arrest.
Starting point is 00:14:55 So I took him outside, gave the man a hug right here at the doors. He just started crying. Officers arrived on the scene shortly after the gesture and arrested Placetia for attempted robbery. So he did get away wanted. He is going to jail. Yeah, yeah. Let's see it was unarmed according to authorities. In a statement, news police praised Armis and called him a good Samaritan who delivered
Starting point is 00:15:15 the right message that made the difference. Armis says he believes fate brought him to the bank bet. Day. Fate brought him to the bank that day. Also, the fact that he is, how old? 65 years old? Over 70. It's his daughter's friend and this guy's 41. 87. He's 69 years old.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Oh, I knew it. Fate brought him to the bank. Also, no one under 65 is inside a bank anymore. Other than me. Fate brought him to the bank and the fact that he doesn't know how to deposit on his phone. Yeah, it doesn't trust the ATM. Right. Believes that Faye brought him that day, it was meant for me to be here.
Starting point is 00:15:49 What? what that's wrong you did a good thing but we're not you're not an angel you're not del no it was meant for me to be here it was meant yeah i was meant to be i'm sorry i don't mean to correct this guy help him help him help the guy out so he did it and he saved a guy so we have two great so yeah one a one b from randy sclar so the dumb guy walks in the bank he has he's unarmed and he asked for the money but it ended into positive in that he dumb and or sad. Yeah, you got what he wanted in the end.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Yeah, he got a hug. Yeah, there you go. I just say when I lived in Oregon, a little small town, Ashland, Oregon. I know Ashland, Oregon. There was a guy who delivered pizzas in a Spider-Man costume. And that was his thing.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Everyone just called him Spider-Man. No way. I love Ashland Oregon, where the Shakespeare Festival was. My mother-in-law lived up there. Does he shoot it? No, it's beautiful. Let me shoot you a little tip over there. You know, you just throw the cash out.

Starting point is 00:26:21 math teacher's decision to do, quote, special things in special places. Come on. No, no, no. No, no. That might be a lost in translation. To attract students' attention by posting classes on an adult video website has really... Why is he taking out a ruler? Why is he taking out of ruler?
Starting point is 00:26:38 Shang Su, a former cram school teacher, has gained worldwide attention by posting his calculus classes on the Canadian-owned internet pornography website, Pornhub. His page titled, Play Hard, Study, Hard. No. I mean, he knows what he's doing. He does know what he's doing. He says, get up, students. Has gained 6,900 subscribers. That's just Kismet.
Starting point is 00:27:04 That is amazing. That's perfect. Well, what if that's someone's fetish? Talk to me about math. And his 271 videos have racked up how many total views? 10 million. 10 million from Randy Sclar? 3 million.
Starting point is 00:27:18 3 million from Jason Sclar? 2 million. 1.8 million. Hey! Look at this. Oh, age. Oh, math. It's so hard.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Oh, I got a song for why. Why's why? Okay. For yes. Chang told CNA, which I guess is news out of Taipei, that he has 15 years of teaching experience, previously opened his own cram school and started teaching online last year.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Speaking of cram, I'm going to cram this in over here. I think they did this on purpose. Actually, I don't think they did either way. After his cram school hit hard times, he worked with his team to build his brand. Changsu, math teacher, with a focus on calculus courses, and brainstormed about marketing strategies.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Now, I remember... His only fans on multiplication is amazing. Do you guys remember when Kumail found out that the entire bootleg version of the Big Sick was on Pornhub? And it had like millions and millions of views. Yeah. It had millions and millions of views.
Starting point is 00:28:11 And he was like, I don't, thank you, but also like, we make no money off of this. This is terrible. Yeah. So there is a lot of people who are on porn up for other stuff, I guess. Sure. If math gets you off that, God bless it. Go for it. Wasn't there like a woman, it was very satisfying.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Wasn't there a woman who talked about how she would, dudes would pay her lots of money to call her and she would ignore them? Yeah. so they'd talk to her this was on guys we fucked that podcast they talked to her she's like she would put the phone down and like they would talk to her and she would ignore them and she'd like go do her like house cleaning of you know whatever stuff and then come back and be like just breathe on the phone shut up barely listen and these are like executives who like everyone somebody's out here edging with calculus that's okay probably one of the names of one of the Calculus.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Edging with a protractor. Chang said that because there are already many free calculus courses available online in Taiwan and overseas, he decided to branch out and, quote, do special things in special places. Stop saying. Nice. To grab the attention of prospective students. I would say do special things in forbidden places. Sure.
Starting point is 00:29:23 That shouldn't go there. Yeah. Or just call it like consent to math. That's right. He decided to post content on YouTube, Twitch, and Pornhub, but it was the latter where he achieved the most views. This is. Also, do you think there's a lot of people who, like, have it queued up in their, like, porn hub window? Yes, to quickly switch over to, yeah. So there's that, so there's that and, oh, is this a porn site? I've been going
Starting point is 00:29:46 here for math. I don't know. So he's, I didn't know. Also, like, maybe there are people using it to, like, don't come yet. Don't, don't. Yes. They're edging out. Right. Yes. Thank you. Chang. Many. Many have paid the to download his paid content on the site. So he's actually making money on top of you, right? I'm into asymptote play. There you go. Those tits are so acute.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Chang, who is fully clothed in a hooded sweatshirt and jeans in all of his videos, said he has received many positive feedback on his videos, such as, because of the teacher's video, I have a legitimate reason to go to an adult video website. Thank you. However, others have complained that, quote, I didn't come to your website to watch this porn as graphic trailers and advertisements inevitably appear before his videos.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Yeah, I mean, they're doing some... But go to YouTube then. Also, they're doing some geometry. Something's happening. There's like, you know what I mean? Like, there's some formula of how... Yeah, for sure. Local Taiwanese media reports that Chang has earned how much in U.S. dollars from his
Starting point is 00:30:57 videos on the adult platform. So I converted this. from Taiwanese currency to American U.S. dollars, how much money do you think he has earned just from putting his videos on porn hobby? You do the math, and it also does you. $75,000 from Randy. I'm going to say like $12,000.
Starting point is 00:31:20 $12,000 from Jason, Steve Agee. $90,000. He has made $246,000. $2.46,000 again with the win for Steve Hage. Oh, my God. $246,000. Me so wealthy. That was really good.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Chang acknowledged that his marketing strategy has indeed paid off over the past year. He said, quote, many, this guy, I hope this is on purpose, many good things need to be well packaged. That is a sports package no one ordered. But expressed hope that the public will not reject his. content because of his unusual marketing strategy. Chang says that in the future, he plans to continue operating his YouTube channel and revising the content on Pornhub. He said that other people will be included in future videos and that he plans to eventually
Starting point is 00:32:14 teach face-to-face classes again as well. Come for the math. Come from the math. Yeah. Come for the math and come from the math. Also, today we're going to be learning about angles. Solve for triple X. We'll get out here on this.
Starting point is 00:32:31 solve for triple x is so good that might be the title of this show solve for triple x solve for triple x okay we'll get out of here on this how old is changsu now a boy named changsu he's way into calculus yeah he's up on twitch he could be a prodigy he could be 75 right it's probably not that number because I said it but he could be older and somebody told him hey this is where he needs to be to put all your courses. I think he's 41. 41.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Changsu's 41. 34. 34. 29. 29. One of you is exactly right. So we now get to play the game. Who do you think is right?
Starting point is 00:33:15 You can stay with yourself or switch. You're staying at? What did you say? 41. And what did you say? 34. 34. 29.
Starting point is 00:33:22 I'm staying. You're staying? I'm going to stay. You're going to stay? Stay and put. Well, then story two, when we come back, Jason will give us story number three. I will tell you what I am up to.
Starting point is 00:33:32 I love it. Shanksu. Is 34 years ago. Guest the A.G. He literally Aegee gets the Aegee. Where it came from. That's where it originally came from. You can't do any better than that.
Starting point is 00:33:49 We've got Steve Aegee. He's on the peacemaker season two or peacemaker's season two. He's doing the podcast for it with James Gunn. Such good stuff. We'll be right back with story number three. Jay, give us a little taste. It's, if you're in Canada and you're a hiker, if you're in Canada and you're a hiker, watch your mouth. Okay, watch your mouth, everybody.
Starting point is 00:34:08 We'll be right back with more Dumb People Town. Stick around, make a sound, bunker down is Dump People Town. Hey guys, welcome back to the show. Before we jump into the final story, Daniel, how can people follow you and see you? You should go to Daniel Vancirk.com. There you can see the dates to come see me live. I will be at the High Plains Comedy Festival. It will be a flyover comedy festival.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Doing shows, doing shows with the Sclarz. We'll be capping it off with our live Dumb Pupil Town. I'll also be on the 22nd of November. I'm doing a charity show for Habitat for Humanity in Bloomington, Indiana. You got tickets for that. I think the Monday or Tuesday before Thanksgiving, so just a couple days after I'll be in Bloomington, I will be taking part in Kyle Canaan's pre-Thanksgiving shows
Starting point is 00:34:55 that he does at Talia Hall in Chicago. So that'll be super fun. And then you can listen to this show. you should sign up for the Patreon. If you like, hang out with me and Rana J, it's only five bucks a month. It's super fun. It's good stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:05 Extra content. I also have my podcast, The Midnight Air, which is an overnight radio podcast of just easy listening content stuff. It'll, like a good conversation you'd have in a dive bar with a friend.
Starting point is 00:35:16 I imagine you and your listeners are all in figurative sleeping bags. You're camping and like you're talking as everyone. Sometimes I'll be like... As the fire burns down and... 20 minutes in and I'll like fuck something up and I'll be like, you should be a...
Starting point is 00:35:30 sleep by now. Right. Thank you. Who cares that I messed that? And everybody's going to sleep and dance on the midnight air. It's usually every Monday, sometimes Tuesday, schedule permitting. I love it. Nice. All right, here we go. This is his last story sent in by our buddy Elise LeBlanc. Love Elise. At E.E. LeBlanc 70.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Gotcha. Here we get it right. Canadian camper, mistaken for distressed hiker, was really just singing Nickelback. Okay, hang on a minute. Couldn't make it as a hiker. All right, here we Canadian Search and Rescue Team. This is how you all find me.
Starting point is 00:36:06 Here we go. Look at me in this missing person's photograph. Every time I do with me. Clearly you guys know all the Nickelback songs. Sorry, we know one song. Canadian search and rescue teams were called into action late last month after hikers reported hearing distress cries echoing through the forest near Kelowna, British Columbia.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Okay. Yeah. Beautiful up there, but also it sounds beautiful. What they found wasn't a lost or injured backpacker was just a dude camping alone and belting out Nickelback. Oh, so they thought they were screaming for help and they're like, we're going to save someone's life. Someone is being attacked by a bear.
Starting point is 00:36:44 You're singing. Up in down. Up and down. Save that man right now. There is a theory of when you're out hiking and camping in a remote place. Sometimes it can be very good for you to make a lot of noise because you do not want to scare bears.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Yes, you don't want to come upon an animal that's like, you know, you start a little. Scare bears, my favorite kids series. Scare bears. A lot more traumatic than the original version, but it just pop out in places when you don't think. Oh, my God. The care bears start turn around and start attacking kids scare bears. Yeah. We got to make that.
Starting point is 00:37:17 That's got to be a thing. It's got to be a thing, right? Scare bears stare. The incident unfolded near the Boulder Fields climbing area on July 3. First, when two hikers called 911 after they heard what sounded like repeated, cries. Yeah, well, the guy's singing Nickleback. From deep in the trees. The central, I mean,
Starting point is 00:37:35 it could have been Nickelback themselves. It's Canada. Could be. Could be. Could be. The central Okanagan search and rescue Kozhar team already out conducting a routine training exercise immediately sprang into action.
Starting point is 00:37:51 They deployed RCMP officers, launched drones, informed search teams to investigate the Erie calls for help. They're like, this is our moment. I mean, this is our chance to save a dime. By the way,
Starting point is 00:38:01 Nickelback made a bit of a comeback. Like, people are like, they're actually really good. Yeah, a lot of hate was really good. They were very of the time. I think he got a lot of hate
Starting point is 00:38:09 just from his haircut. But I think like Creed, like Creed has risen like Jesus from the ashes. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Like, did you not know that? No.
Starting point is 00:38:18 People love. Oh, they're back. It's not fun. It's pure. Because now it's nostalgia. They're no longer new. It's like, oh, I remember who I was
Starting point is 00:38:27 I love what came out. It's cheesy. It's so fun to sing. Crete is so fun to sing at karaoke. I mean, it is because... Didn't we do a karaoke show with you a while back at the baked potato? Bake potato? Oh, yeah, yeah, baked.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Me and Brendan Small Show. Oh, my God, that was so fun. That was a good time. We did Funk 49. Good. So good. Okay, instead of a person in peril, they found a solo camper just mining his own business and jamming to some nickelback, Acapella.
Starting point is 00:38:54 So here's a guy who went camping by himself. Yeah. And probably has to camp by himself because he's like, I'm going to sing Nickelback. And I was like, we're not coming. If you're going to do that, have fun by yourself. And I hope someone doesn't try and rescue you, right? Camper was singing his heart out to the trees, blissfully unaware that the acoustics of Boulderfields has turned his 10th side concert into an accidental distress signal. Kozar wrote in a Facebook.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Like, who's raping a mountain lion? Oh, no, that's just a guy seeing it. He's crushing it. He really was. Search manager, Dwayne Tresnitch. Good name. Dwayne the rock, Tresnich. Dwayne the Pebble.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Tresnich. Sumbed it up perfectly. He wasn't in trouble unless you count his singing. Oh, snap. Got him. Got it. Dwayne's been waiting for that. Dwayne.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Which raises the age-old philosophical question. If you sing Nickelback in the woods and no one's around to hear it, does it still result? in a full-blown search and rescue operations. Yeah, it does. That is the age-old question. And apparently, yes. Yes, that's what I said. There's no word yet on which Nickelback song echoed through the Canadian wilderness.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Rockstar, far away, photograph, maybe a B-side if he's a real fan. All we know is this guy was giving it 110%. Thankfully, the camper was unharmed, aside from presumably a little embarrassment. Coz are not more embarrassed than Nickelback itself. Yeah. Like, if you're nickelback and you're reading this article, you're like, come on leave us alone what are we doing here leave us alone they just went out so i wonder who nickleback likes like you go like i know john mayors tries to be funny and i and he obviously likes the dead
Starting point is 00:40:37 because he's playing all those shows the dead like i don't know that john mayor would listen to a john mayor album i think he likes the music he makes but i think he's proud of what he makes i think he's proud of what it is but it wouldn't be what he would choose to turn on right a lot of blues like that's such an Interesting. Like, I wonder if Nickelback likes nickelback music or what they're like super indecreed. Game recognized game. Kosar used the incident to remind the public that they always take potential emergencies seriously. Oh, so this is that's like we, this is like an emergency test. We did.
Starting point is 00:41:14 Yeah, I mean, we showed up. Yeah. Rehearsal. We got it. It's like a stress test for their search. It's like a stress test for their search and rescue team. Right. And look, and the money you could see.
Starting point is 00:41:25 save could be spent on singing lessons the team job. Why are they taking shots to this guy? What if the guy sounded good? Roe Central. Look, maybe singing Nickelback alone in the woods is in itself a cry for help. This article is going hard. We thought we were going hard.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Or maybe it's just uniquely Canadian form of therapy. Regardless, I'll bet that guy brings his Bluetooth speaker next time. I don't know about that. I don't know if he's going to I don't know about that. Do they give his age? I don't know if they gave the age. I don't know if they gave the age. I think that's it. That's a story. That's a show.
Starting point is 00:41:56 That's a show. Guys, thank you. Watch, Peacemaker. Watch Peacemaker. Thank you. Listen to the podcast. What a treat to have you here. I love it every time.
Starting point is 00:42:04 It's good to see you guys. Flies by. And, oh, snap, we're going to get back to work. See you. Peace. Maker. Bye.
