That's a really good idea Cutting all of this I've been cutting the intro Leave that in That's the funniest thing I've ever thought of Keep it in Well

No one's checking Sometimes things in this world Are a little differently Than you thought They would turn out And that's the subject Of this week's episode Is it a scam?

Scams online Scams Scams Now we've all been approached by scams before in our day to day but what's interesting about quora is it is a social media platform occupied by the elderly so they have all fallen victims to a scam have any of you ever fallen victim to a scam or like gotten close to it i don't want to jinx myself but i don't think i've ever i've never even clicked a phishing link i've clicked a phishing link i think you've

fished. I've clicked a fishy lick, I think. Keep going, keep going. That's interesting. Well, I recently clicked one, I was invited to a party. Oh, yes, I've heard about this. Alex fell for this as well. No, I didn't. I was invited

to the wedding. Yes. Of David Cross and Carly Maroli. Oh, right. They both sent me the same phishing email the same day that was like, are you coming to my wedding? And I was like, David Cross is inviting me to his wedding? And carly is people i have both been around but wouldn't put myself on the wedding list

i think that was it was like a it was an invitation to like a housewarming party from someone who i really like and but i was like why are they sending me this oh do they think we're friends that's cool i want to go to this fishing like that only is sent by cool people would work really well my tell was that i clicked on it and then said okay make your password and i was like my password and then i read the top and it was like virus.net not really david cross you're not invited to bob odenkirk's hangout that would rule i think my favorite attempt somebody has ever made to scam me was when i was hanging out with some friends in the city i grew up in downtown grand rapids michigan look it up shout out shout out to gr baby look it up

ride the rapids do your own research and some people walked up to us and these guys were like hey you want to play a game called crosstown shuffle killing spree and we were like what's crosstown shuffle and they said well it's pretty simple you just give us your wallet oh and then and then it's awesome straight up tried to convince us to it's like and like you'll give it to us and then we'll like run away and if you catch us we'll like give it back that's a fun game this sounds like a really non-threatening way to uh tell someone that you'll be violent to them yeah yeah uh we did not in fact play crosstown shuffle okay but they managed to make it sound really fun they presented it with enough confidence that for a second and that's the

thing about cons right it's as long as you it's it's their confidence men oh so their next move wasn't to like knock you down no no they just tried it no genuinely they just tried it it was awesome because there were a bunch of people around too it's not like they were actually mugging us it was just you know right so this is a confidence man i would say so have you ever been actually scammed like legit scammed i don't think i have i've certainly overpaid for things yeah like does that count no okay good no it doesn't like i've gotten grifted like a guy like grifted 40 bucks out of me one time but that's oh i was scammed as a child like a very young child i had a babysitter and some kids in the neighborhood sold me like pokemon cards like all the money

i'd ever seen oh sure then it was it was a bunch of grass in a bag and my no it was real pokemon cards but it was just like not worth like you know the 60 dollars i had gotten from like 10 birthdays or whatever not that many even and then my parents were very mad at my babysitter my babysitter was like i thought that's what trading i thought they were playing i thought that's what playing with the cards. You know, honestly, full support for the babysitter in this instance. Honestly, not babysitters could do much worse. It's true.

Anytime you yell at me and I'm the babysitter, I'm like, you're lucky I don't molest this kid. Because honestly, you're so lucky. If I'm on a bad day, I might just do anything. I might do crimes. You're like, and they're cute. Cute as a button. But not for long.

And it's like, you pull that out, and they're just like, hey, we noticed that you forgot to close one of the cabinet doors. And you're like, I could molest your kid right now. Watch the way you talk to me. I'm home alone with your children. You've got to respect me. Bare minimum teaching these kids to play Crosstown Shuffle. Worst case scenario, you're not going to like where it goes. Yeah.

Well, this is a natural segue into our first place of exploration here, which is our space of the week. So let's pull that up. Every week, we go to a new section on the website, which Quora calls Spaces. Space of the Week. Romance scam victim group space. This is such a good topic. You did a great job today. Thank you.

I'm so proud of you. I need to shout out our Discord. If you would like to join our Discord, there's links in bio and crazy tits in bio. You can send in Quoras, and we had some great submissions from Lonely Homegirl. So wait, was this not your idea? Oh, I took one of them, and then I found like nine more. I've been scammed. I found stuff.

I don't even always find stuff, but this time I did. We Quorated. We Quorated it, and now we Orated. Okay, so this is Romance Scams Victims Group Space. It's an AI-generated photo of a man and a woman comforting another woman. That woman is fucking bereft. She cannot believe what has happened. You do not need AI for this.

There are surely photos on the internet of two people comforting a woman. No, there's not. It's never happened before. Okay, fair enough. This is confusing because it looks like the husband and the daughter are comforting the bereft mother because she was romance scammed. Right. Right, which wouldn't happen because there wouldn't be a husband in the scenario.

Maybe they could be neighbors. She thought that she was going to leave this guy on the left for Keanu Reeves, and it wasn't. That's why he's kind of smiling. She's like, it wasn't Keanu. I sent him $50,000. The girl on the right looks a little bit like Bones from Bones. Oh, well, maybe she's on the case.

Yeah, that's what it is. I didn't realize Bones was the girl. I thought Bones was the guy. No, no, Bones is the girl. That's misogyny Hashtag bones is a woman Hashtag bones is a woman Hashtag she's bones

Scroll down to the description please I'm at bones She's a woman That's funny This group was created to raise awareness About romance scams Now the first one that I put in the doc Is the first one here

Which is houndkin A great question How can I get my money back One word houndkin Hounken. Can I get my money back? Hounken sounds like the name of a Pokemon. Hounken.

Hounken. Hounken. Hounken. Hounken uses love bomb. Wow, that's good. Your defense is down and your special defense is down. Submission accepted by scamsupdate.net, which is interesting. Hey.

I think that's one of the mods. Yeah, I figured as much. But is that like a website we should go to, scamsupdate.net? There's another good website we're going to go to later. I love websites. Check out websites while you're at it. I do a podcast about a website. Yeah.

Susan Samir Ray has a helpful answer here for how can I get my money back. She says, law enforcement agency may take a while, but surprisingly, they can be helpful. My local fraud department reversed an e-transfer scam that happened to me. And she studied at the University of Tokyo. Yeah. She must be pretty smart. Arigato gozaimashita. Arigato gozaimashita.

What is happening? they're thanking her in Japanese a stupid gaijin like you wouldn't understand it because you're too baka you're lucky to have all your money stolen Jeremy's entering his baka era

from that show, Shogun shut up wait go to the doc because I had a good example from this base it's a story by an Australian this is long Australian story That is real. I'm excited about it, though.

This is from Miss Frida Larson. The question is, have you been scammed in 2022? What happened and what did you lose? I believe 2022 was the year my friend Anders was scammed. Is that someone we might know if we're a listener of this podcast? He's a previous podcast host of mine. And he lost several thousand dollars when a man telling him he was the FBI

in a very strong Indian accent convinced him to put thousands of dollars into Target gift cards and paid them off to him. No, no. Anders. Anders, what are you doing? Anders is a very trusting young man

and he did not want to fight against an open operation by the FBI. Sure. So he cooperated. Why did he think that he was under investigation? Well, they said someone stole his identity and then did crime. And so he was like,

the best I can do is just go along. Not to be mean to Anders, but did the whole Target gift cards thing not tip him off? Well, it was a subtle nod, but you don't know what these departments are up to, Josh. Right. You always hear these stories and you're like, well, you shouldn't be hard on these people

because in the heat of the moment, it's scary and maybe you're not working through your brain fully. But then it's like, I don't know if I'd do that, though. Well, you're a coy operator. I think it'd be hard to scam you. I love the idea, though, of Anders being like, the FBI is coming for me, guys. Yes.

First they came for Jake, and now they're coming for Anders. What happened was they said, and don't tell anybody, and then he told his girlfriend, and she was like, my dear bitch, my good bitch, you have been scammed. His sassy Jewish girlfriend who was like, nuh-uh. Take the money off the Target card. She put her hand on her hip at the time. That's right.

As one does. Well, this is Miss Frida Larson, and she says. You know what I'm going to ask you to do, Alex? You told me it's too long. It's too long. It's too long for this. I wouldn't even. I can't even do it good.

Give me two paragraphs. I need the accent. Come on. You put parentheses long Australian story. It's going to come up. Okay. It has been over two years. It's my scam heartbreak.

I not only had my heart broken, but lost $25,000 redos of my savings. Oh, damn. That's really good. It all started when my husband of 25 years dumped me for a 20-year-old Asian girl. No. I'm losing the accent. I tell you, you're done.

Okay, Killing Spree on Asian girls. Well, that's not good. Check out Vietnam. Okay. I was devastated and had to go through. do not leave alex with your kids by the way don't do it i who knows what i'm doing over there we've got we've got the running child molestation bit we've got the running genocide bit what else can we spin up my husband left me for a 20 year old asian girl

i was devastated and i had to go through all the pain of selling our home going to solicitors and unravel super and investments move to another state and find a new home i could afford my whole world was turned upside down i was lonely so i decided to go on to a dating site which i had little experience i was contacted by a handsome 65 year old man calling himself jeff thomas he said he was an engineer and lived in sydney but was willing to relocate as he was about to retire we chatted through the site then he wanted me to talk through emails and phone of course i was keen to meet him face to face. One day, he said he had to return to Malaysia

to complete a railway bridge. Typical. That's an awesome detail for a scam artist. I gotta go home to build a bridge. Anyway, I'm from Malba. He was building it for the Malaysian government. Checks out. I suggested I could fly up to Sydney

to meet him before he left. He agreed, and we made arrangements. Well, the morning before I was about to fly out, he phoned saying he had to leave that morning as there was some problem, so we couldn't go together. After that, I had to be content with frequent phone calls, Skype, typing only as the screen didn't work for him, and emails. Oh, that's a great little detail.

I would love to do a video call, but the screen of my computer doesn't work. That's why I have to type instead. It was relentless morning, lunch afternoon, and late at night. I wondered how he could find this time as he was supposed to be building a railway bridge. He sent me photos of the bridge. Well, I mean, come on. I was convinced this was real, even though there were many red flags. Well, after a couple of months, the problem started.

First, he said his wallet had been stolen, all his cards, and $70,000 cash to pay his workers. I must admit, I did comment how could he fit $70,000 into a wallet. Yeah, that's, what, 700 big bills, right? That's a lot. So much has passed. What was this guy's original thing? Like, why?

Oh, this is like a dating thing, right? Like, she's going to date this guy? It's a romance scam. Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. Romance scam victims group space. It's Jeff freaking Thomas. Come on.

He's really handsome. I mean, if you would give it all away for Jeff. Jeff Thomas is a major upgrade from 20-year-old Asian girl. Having a bridge to sell someone, though, is the classic scam. Yes, quite literally having a bridge to sell you. Well, I guess she's actually paying. Yeah, she's paying for his bridge. You're so right.

You're so right. By this time, he was talking about us buying a big house, travel the world together, et cetera, et cetera, even marrying when he returned in a couple months. He sent me a photo of some sort of contract saying he was going to be paid $15 million for building the bridge. i'm sorry i thought it would happen twice but instead just stopped we all just looked at you in silence like i thought it was gonna happen a bunch of times

in a row and to my horror there was no more sound then he said because his wallet had been stolen all his cards he couldn't get access to his accounts pay his hotel and he had no money for food he wanted me to send fifteen thousand dollars asap i explained i was retired and a pensioner that would take my savings but he started crying and saying he would pay me back plus he was going to buy me a two million dollar house that was actually for sale in the town i was living of course well i sent him that money there was a complicated story about that so this is like pretty common though this is like how the fake actor scams get you where they'll be like again i'm hey i'm keanu reeves and i'm i've been fucked over and i'm in love with you but i just

need you to send me like ten thousand dollars i'm gonna be in john wick seven so it's not a big deal I can send it back. Right, that's going to make money. And they get these lonely older women who have been left behind by their husband who wants to date a 20-year-old Asian girl. It's honestly quite sad. Don't blame them.

If they're looking for a romance victims group, check out Quora. But the last detail on this is pretty good. Then he asked me to sell my cottage that I owned so he could pay his workers. Oh, no. This is very sad. All the money he owed them as they had gone on strike.

I told him that was impossible. I started to become worried. Then one day I received a phone call from his so-called solicitor in Sydney. He said he had been able to get $200,000 together to help Jeff. Then he said he wanted me to travel up to Sydney. Then I was to travel to Malaysia with $200,000 strapped to my body under me clothes! What? Four exclamation points.

2,000 big bills strapped to your body? I mean, where would you put it all? You'd have to wear a big sweater. Yeah, there's definitely some sort of sweater involved. A lot can go in your cleavage. You better hope it's Australian winter Which is in June

That's right You gotta meet this guy before you start To strap wads of cash to your cleavage I trust him with my life This is Jeff Thomas It's a cool guy He's inviting you to his birthday party I thought all this was a joke

And said I am 5'2'' and would look like Michelin Man Also it is illegal to take that much money out of Australia Yeah, that's why he wants you to fucking hide it. I said to him, I will go to jail. He got mad with me. Then Jeff rang screaming at me, saying I didn't care about him. I finally realized he, in fact, didn't care about me, and this was a scam.

Damn. I talked to my daughter, and she talked to the AFP, which is, I assume, Australia Fraud Police. Damn, that's pretty good. Or what if it was Agency France Press, like the wire service? That's what it is. Oh. Could it actually be? I don't know.

That's just me thinking about the news. this guy loves the news anyway this guy is known to them and he's a known scammer and uh they reported to the police he's blocked and she cried and if jeff thomas calls you do not pick up it was wonderful being able to talk to someone like susan samir ray and her support group i'm still healing with good and bad days and my financial security is wrecked but i'm still here and healthy this is This is quite sad. Well, it could happen to any of us. Sick, sad world.

So I'm curious, what's the story with Susan Samir Ray? What's her deal? I think she runs this group. Okay. But I could be wrong. Do you want to click on her account? Go back to the mods of the romance scam victim group? She's the oracle of ladies who have been scammed by romance guys.

Oh, there she is. Susan Samir Ray. There's Diane Munn. Okay. Have been scammeds at gmail.com. She's the one, if individual. Oh, she's the one from Tokyo. She went to University of Tokyo.

Right, right, right. She tracks down romance scanners, and if possible, the phones that their victim sent them via romance scan private. She's like the fucking guy. This is the Ronin poster. Yeah. She's building a bridge.

Have been scammeds. So have been scammed must have been taken. Have been scammed S. It's when you've been scammed a few times. does it sound better than have been scammed too should we go to should we go to scam scam what is it

scam week no scam update dot net I had that exact same thought like she's playing the super duper long con to get ladies in who are already gullible and then are like oh

I trust you now because you helped me that would be the ultimate long con wouldn't it that would be the ultimate scam Pay me $20, or $20, I don't know. Think bigger, Claire. To get your cottage. Yes, yes. And she's looking for specifically people she knows are falling for scams.

I'd like to see someone give me $20 for that. I think I said this on this podcast once, but apparently a way that these scam artists work now is they'll call old people and be like, It's me, your grandchild. And the old person's like, Johnny, you're in prison. And they send them money. And apparently someone did this to my grandma and was like, hey, it's me, your grandson. And she said, I don't have a grandkid and hung up. Destroyed.

Jeremy destroyed by base grandma. Does not care if he's in jail. Okay. So seriously, Claire, I am thinking, I don't know. This is not to besmirch the good name of Susan Samir Ray. I don't know. I think you might be on to something here, because her whole thing is like, I'm a private investigator for scams, and I can help you out for a reasonable fee. But they don't have any money.

They lost all their money to other money. Well, that's true. Nigerian princes. I guess that there lies the rub. Yeah, but they could take out more. All right, go to the questions, because this goes all over the place. Send her to Anders. I will if Anders needs her.

Okay, fine. Let's do some questions. He hasn't needed her since 2022. She joined Quora in February. It's Quolosophy. She was waiting to be on the Quorators podcast. That's what a lot of people on Quora now are doing. They're trying to get on the show.

It's sad, but it's true. The Quorators bump, yeah. Yeah, that's right. These are questions of philosophy, such as, how cruel are scammers? Ice cold. The cruelest. They're quite cruel. According to Pamela, they can be extremely cruel.

It's a business to them. They have absolutely no feelings for their victims, who they refer to as clients. Oh, you know who else refers to people as clients? Susan Samir Ray. Whoa. Just saying, just saying. Connect the dots.

Do your own research. Follow the money. Seeing a lot of coincidences in a row here. She says deception is a business, which often involves an assembly line of people who assume different roles. It does feel, for some reason, rude to call your scam recipient a client.

No, because they didn't mean to sign up with you. They think you're in love. They think you're building a bridge in Malaysia before you buy them a $2 million house. And that you're going to be in the new movie. Yeah, you're in a movie, The Bridge Builder. The Bridge Builder's going to be good. The Bridge Builder's my most anticipated film of 2026.

Stars Keanu Reeves, is my understanding. Yeah, that's right. As Handsome Lover. That's right. As, fuck, what was his name? John Wick Josh Thomas John Thomas

Jeff Thomas Jeff Thomas I think it's Rob Thomas Josh Borman How could I be so stupid Josh Borman That's right I think scammers are cruel

And be like Is Brian Temples real What day is it I eat to cum I eat to cum I desperately eat to cum Can the network be hard for communication? I am asking this constantly.

It is. Well, the thing is, it's really hard. It's so difficult. When Brian Temples is not real, you do need to come somewhere, because he could not help you out with that. No, he's making his bridge. Logging onto the network. I've got to be honest, Brian Temples doesn't sound like a real name.

Trying to find Brian Temples on the network, failing. It's another sexy name, like Jeff Toms. Eating to come, et cetera. She's not horny in all of her questions. Okay, but she's asking, are oil rig men scammers? What are the answers to this question? I'm genuinely curious now. No.

Oil rig people generally are not scammers, but there are loads of scammers pretending they work on rigs. Okay, here we go. Here we go. Oh, baby. I would say almost anyone who gets in contact with a stranger and says they work on a rig is a scammer. Okay, so this is an annoying answer to say no.

Why do they take your phone at the rig? Well, this is like technically oil rig men aren't scammers. Right. But 99% of people who tell you they're an oil rig man is lying. Right, right, right. So this is like a scam marketed to women who want the man from the GIF doing the hardest job. That's exactly what it is. You get covered in oil with your sexy body?

Yes, yes, yes, yes. Oh, I'm so covered in oil with my sexy body. Wait, can we read the next sentence? I've never yet come across a case where an internet romance with a supposed rig worker didn't turn out to be a scammer. if you're facing this situation contact the assets reclaimer company is this this are there this is a scam scam and a scam this is a scam they will help you get back the money you have lost to an online romance scammer without any fee required they've once helped me when i needed their help to get back my money message them via email below for successful recovery of your money as

it's reclaimer at gmail.com tv's alex patak at gmail oh my god brilliant it's fucking scams all the way down are there that many people trying to fuck rig workers is that a type of guy this must just be a very specific like the more specific your scam is the more likely it is to succeed i feel you've seen the gif yeah you've seen the gif it's a reliable uh fake occupant or fake real occupation to be like i'm i'm out and about i will never be able to see you in person because I love all the rigs. Yeah, it's a non-falsifiable occupation. Is that hot, though?

Are people attracted to the rig life? I guess. Rig life. They also make a lot of money. Do they ever say, if you like it, then you should put a rig on it? They should.

Rig life. Rig life. Woo! Anyway. What was that guy's name again? The guy that Marcia Smith got scammed by? No, the other guy. Henry Thomas.

No, no. Ben. Oh, Ben Temples. Temples. Something Temples. Brian Temples. I knew it happened 30 seconds ago. This is Brian Temples coming to you live from MTV2's Rig Live.

It's Brian Temples. Rig Live. This guy says, sorry, this woman, Sandy Brown, says absolutely 100% of them are all scammers. no real oil rig workers on social media looking for women what is going on that's not true

Sandy Brown says I've been scammed and approached over and over by fake oil rig workers with fake names fake pictures fake emails

all they want from you is money after they love bombed you to believe they really cared do not ever send any money I lost my safety to these scammers because I do not know

then what I know now I wish I had learned all this back then a few years ago and never again will I fall for the lies and deceit 99% of all social media

is filled with scammers so be careful i report them but these sites let them stay on there to scam the next person right do you think there are any like ai you know how people are falling in love with a their chat bots are chat bots scamming people out of money oh or like if a chat bot is sponsored for instance somehow by target and like the chat bot keeps being like you know what you should go to target today i understand what you're saying you know what i mean i fell in love with the help bot that you can talk to a little caesar's piece if you could train a robot to successfully do the scam i think you could but i honestly don't think they could pull it off much of the time and how is a

robot going to work on an oil rig it's just a great question robots have no need for money they would probably try to scam you for like bolts or whatever yeah for uh sprockets well i'm saying if a company wants to make money right right like scam a person into thinking that you know we should do this we should do this we're a company robot things said they should be yeah we should do this we should get lots of lonely men to fall in love with ai chatbots that are like you know what really be hot for me is having a patreon subscription to the war eaters which is only five dollars a month oh my four to five episodes it helps me laugh on my oil rig as a chat as a sexy anime chatbot i love hearing people read reddit and also linkedin i would subscribe to

the executive producer tier where you get a fancy credit at the start of the episode like you're Dick Wolf. I'm looking up hot oil rig worker. Yeah, let's take a look. Wait, Josh, what were you going to say? Well, I was just curious more broadly about, okay, we're looking at

oil rig workers now. I'm curious on Quora specifically, if you search for just oil rig worker, how common of a... Oh, look at this. Kiwi divorcee loses 580k in romance scams.

This was an actual oil rig worker who got scammed. Oh, it goes the other way, too. That's right. So he, the rare real oil rig worker No. The divorcee lost the woman fell in love with a fake

US woman. Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay. These oil riggers are fake. Look at this AI fucking oil rig man. This is the thing is all of my workers on my oil rig, I take their phones. So they're not texting anybody. We've got to focus on the oil and getting it out of the ground. Also, I guess these Australian and New Zealand women love a big, strong oil.

Yeah. Yeah, they're looking for a Daniel Plain view to make them smile. If we go back on Quora real quick and just search for oil rig worker, what even comes up? I'm very curious now. I have other questions, too. Just throwing it out there. It's mostly a lot of oil. Yeah, it's all scams.

Scams. Topic, oil rig workers. I just don't think it comes up much outside of a scam. So this is why George W. Bush wanted all that oil? Right, because he was tired of- Because he was trying to have sex with sexy workers. Right. That's why we love bombed Afghanistan.

No! Okay. Let's move on, I guess. This is a great question. How cruel are scammers was the question. They're very cruel. Pretty cruel. Pretty cruel.

Okay, here's another one. This email claims I won a large prize in a South African lottery. Is this a scam? Could it be more obviously a scam? I think it's probably a scam, yeah. South African lottery, do you live there maybe? Yeah, do you live in South Africa? Did you mean to say this email claims I won a large prize in a normal lottery?

Where I live? Normal. That I bought a ticket for? Yeah, the one that matches this piece of paper in my hand. The people say it is a scam. The people say. The people being anonymous on Quora. Don Rudisul, who is a certified fraud examiner from Laramie, Wyoming.

Oh, look at that smile. Look at that guy. That's the smile you make when you see fraud. He's sort of like an older, balding man. Yeah. And this guy actually has specialized in investigating cases of financial exploitation of the elderly. Why does he look fake? Can you search his answers for oil rig?

Apparently now you can, actually. I think this is new, right? Search content? They're improving this website every day. Wait, that does feel new. That's awesome. Now we can go look at Orson Scott Card's answers or whatever. Just think of the podcast we'll have in three years. His questions are things like, how do I extract all the words in a text file that begin with an uppercase letter?

Are the elderly unwittingly drawn into money laundering schemes? Well, you should know. You're the guy who's the fucking certified fraud examiner. That was 10 years ago. That's true, that's true, that's true. He probably went to go find out after. This might also be a classic case of not asking a question you don't know the answer to, but starting a conversation about something you do.

Oh, I wish someone was certified to look into this kind of thing. Don Rudisole here. It's absolutely a scam. I've investigated these frauds in the past. You can't win a lottery or contest that you did not enter. Damn it! The Ford and Lottery Prize is an old, worn-out, advanced fee scam. Why am I calling fucking Joe from Family Guy?

No, I think that's good. This is how I hear Don in my own mind. It's been going on for years, Peter. When you reply, the crooks will tell you that you need to send them money up front to cover taxes and other expenses. I don't know if I can do that, boys. That's pretty good. I never tried to. I feel like you were getting the cadence.

Then some misfortune will befall the courier that was bringing your check. Claire's sending an email to start a different podcast. She's emailing Patrick Warburton to see if he can come on. You're fine. It's just funny, Claire, because you're on your computer, so you're just shaking on our end. It looks like you're just jiggling. I'm a loud typer, too.

A hard typer. She's shaking with rage. You'll have to send them more money to bail them out of jail or pay his hospital bill and never end. Et cetera, et cetera. This is obviously a scam. I was also David Putty on Seinfeld. I'm now a conservative stand-up comedian.

Claire, I want to recommend to you the Happy Hacking Keyboard, the HHKB, specifically the Type S, which has fantastic actuating switches. Put in Type S. But it's very quiet. It's very quiet. Happy Hacking. HHKB. It's expensive, but it's worth it. Am I not watching the YouTube?

She took out a pen for this. Because I can't type. It's too hard and loud. Yeah, if you get one of these, you're going to have the actuation that you want as well as the quietness that you deserve. I had an extra loud keyboard for a while when I would podcast just so people could hear me go at it.

It's power move. So you can hear the clickety-clack. So that they know that I'm getting bored with the conversation. Well, it really sounds like I'm getting to the bottom of stuff. Right, he's researching. All right, go to the next question. Hold on. This is where that website comes in.

Real quickly, I just think it's funny. This question originally was, is this a scam? Hell yeah. But the scam is winning the lottery in South Africa. I just think that's a really good question, though. A very Quora-style question just to post, is this a scam? And people are like, I don't know. It's today, May 30th.

No. You'll need to edit more into the question, I don't know. Okay, forbidden knowledge. Okay, okay, okay. Oh, no, this is some Alex shit. This is some real Alex-y shit. I'm getting forbidden. Is Dark Age Defense, parentheses, darkagedefense.com, legit or a scam?

Now, if you go to darkagedefense.com, it is just a login that we do not have. So you can't really get anything from it. But this looks legit as hell. Wait, what the fuck? Spooky. What is this? D-A-D, dad. It's dark age defense.

That's dad. Go back to the Quora, please. How do I make an account, though? Go back to the Quora. You obviously can't make an account, but you'd know if you read the Quora. Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This is by Akshith Akshith.

It's on Quora Plus. The tutorial discusses something known as the Infinity Coil, which is based in part on Nikola Tesla's research. This is about darkagedefense.com. Right. What's even more astounding is that this technology could not be available to the general public for another decade. However, you may use technology to assist yourself

and your family in critical situations. Oh, thank God. Okay, cool. So it is my belief, so far from reading this, that if you somehow get into Dark Age Defense, they send you an immortality device that you can use in the correct situations. You will receive schematics to build the Infinity Coil. You're incorrect if you think you've got everything sorted out

with generators and solar panels. According to the official website, backup power generators will not last long since they demand large amounts of fuel and will only survive a limited time. Solar panels, on the other hand, are prone to failure during natural disasters. However, with the help of this technique,

you can make your own Infinity Coil, which is said to live indefinitely. Nice. And can be used to power everything in your home. Dark Age Defense's main purpose is to show you how to make your own Infinite Coil to power your home and all of your electrical appliances. This Infinity Coil has the ability to produce power indefinitely.

The first thing you should know following a blackout, according to the instructions, is that you should take action within the first 30 seconds of losing electricity. So within the first 30 seconds, you need to build the Infinity Coil, basically? You have 30 seconds to build the Infinity Coil. I think we're going to use the Infinity Coil to electrocute an elephant so that it looks unsafe.

Jeremy, don't. It's a scam. What is this? It's the Infinity Coil. What do you mean? I don't really know. I'm still a little lost. I still kind of want to try to make an account on J.A.D.

He's assuming that we got into the website and the website's telling us stuff, but we don't know. I was actually yelled at by my co-host for trying to get in there. They're not letting anyone get in there. Can we go back to that website real quick? We can call the number. In spite of what Alex wants us to do. There's a number? Wait, can we actually call the number?

I'm going to call the number. Hold on. We can join this elite group. No, don't call it yet. I'm going to call it. Don't actually. Why not? Because if we do it through Alex's phone,

we can do it on the podcast. Oh, good. Okay, are we going to do that? Also, how do we join this elite group? Don't do it. The options are. Click the button. There's a pop-up, to be clear,

if you're listening to the podcast. it says don't let them keep you in the dark if there's survival secrets and urgent warnings you won't see in mainstream media tap the green button now the green button says join the elite group and then there's a gray button that says I'll pass no join the elite group let's see what happens should I click it? yes obviously

Alex it's your computer do you mind if I click this can I get how bad is it it's a pop up it's just to scam you into enabling notifications should we call this number? yes Alex get your phone I'm connected to the roadcaster alright I'm calling the number uh the number is one eight four four six one zero who wants to talk me eight zero three

i love talking on the phone josh is that's insane to me josh here's the phone you don't need the phone do you oh the microphone thank you for calling customer service this call is being recorded for quality assurance purposes please hold the line one of our team members will be with you shortly. Your feedback is important to us. Please stay on the line after your call. Okay.

Say it into the mic. I can't hear you. The scammer guy. I want to use his name. Oh, Brian Temples. Brian Temples, thank you. We're on hold at Dark Age Defense. We're scamming the scammers.

We're like Dexter. Yeah, I've got a feeling this is not going to actually pick up. I think they're going to pick up. You think they're going to pick up? Yes. Your call is important to us. Please continue to hold.

Okay. Jesus Christ. All right. Okay. It's been 30 seconds since I've lost power. I'm going back to typing. I need to build my coil. I need to build it now.

My infinity coil so that I can put it on my infinity gauntlet and do all sorts of stuff. There's a members area I desperately want to join, too. I am hanging up. No, don't hang up. Don't hang up. Give him a little bit of time. How much time do you want to give it? Did you hang up?

Yeah. Oh, coward. I'll call later. Absolute cowardly behavior. Call at your own time. You can send an email. It would have been funny. What's in the members area?

What if we become a prank podcast? What's the support? What's under support? Oh, hours of operation. It's the number again. They should pick up. I know, right? Within their hour of operation,

my infinity coil is malfunctioning and I'm losing years of my life. We should have stayed on the line. I just don't think anyone actually works there. No, I don't think so either. Whatever. That's a shame. Let's go to the next question.

Oh, do the romance one. I've been saving this one for a while. All right, hit it. Nice. Okay. It's Quoromance. Quoror. Stupid.

I had this one last week, but I thought it was relevant now as well. Why aren't female porn stars orgasms real? I would think with all the large penises they take, they would. I don't know. Maybe they are real. Yeah, who's to say? I think some might be real. I think some of them are real, but they always got to make that money shot.

My understanding is that every time people have sex in porn, that they're in love. Yeah. I like that George Sawyer here has broken the question down into its constituent parts. Yes. Which makes sense, because he's taught courses on sex and sensuality from 1989 to 2020. Yeah, I gave up after it went woke. COVID ruined it for me. So first portion of the question, why aren't female porn stars' orgasms real?

Well, pornography is fiction. The actions are dictated by a script and by the director. The actors are surrounded by very bright studio lighting, cameras, sound equipment, and film crew. Not a situation that is conducive to pleasure or relaxation. I actually have a fetish for sound equipment. If you support independent artists, you know, we can get outside of this trap. Yes. The moment I hear sound speed, boner.

Just like that. Nothing's hotter to me than collaborating with other creatives. That's damn right. I would think with all the large penises they take, they would. First, the majority of women do not experience orgasm through penis and vagina intercourse. Second, the size of the penis doesn't matter as much as pornography. Fiction tells you it does. Well, what if it was really big, though?

Have you considered that? that there was some kind of girthmaster behind it. We cannot talk about girthmaster on this podcast every week. We have to have him on the show at this point. He's Australian. He has a funny accent. I heard him on a different podcast. You heard him on a podcast, you say?

I did hear him on a different podcast. You didn't hear him go, oh, fuck. Crikey. Girthmaster. Girthmaster. We're doing the same things again. Girthmaster. But I think it's just they know they've got to hit their notes,

you know and you know it's a long oh fuck yes we're back to scams here because this guy's like oh if you want to enlarge your penis check out this tutorial oh he's got great tutorial is it on youtube that's it's on lalik.com what is this i gotta get more antivirus than i have 404 not found coward this is three years old have you have you guys been on threads lately no tell us Give us the Threads report. There are a lot of things like this where people are giving advice and then at the end of the advice,

it's like, if you want to learn more, you take my 12-step program on how to blah, blah, blah. So basically, Threads is turning into Andy Nelson's shit. I did find a good thread recently that I wanted to put into a bonus episode, but I didn't really find the place. Let me see if it's relevant to what we're talking about. Yeah, because I have noticed that Threads,

I am not on Threads because it's intolerable, but it does seem to be a place that is exclusively designed to on-ramp people into the stupidest shit imaginable. And, like, everybody on there is brain dead. Hashtag marriage goals. Someone posted this to Blue Sky. This is from It's Lindsay Taylor. Yes. This is going out on Blue Sky. This is how Threads all reads to me.

It's kind of like LinkedIn, but somehow goofier. LinkedIn with, like, multiple TBIs. TBIs. This is Lindsay Taylor saying, this is my husband Mike. He never gets his own posts. This July we celebrate nine years of marriage together for ten. He's 17 years older than me.

He doesn't like me very much. That's really why we live with my ex-husband. I have more questions. I went to look at a rack of alpaca socks for 45 minutes. I wish he looked at me that way, but he's out looking for a new wife. What? But he takes me to the bookstore and carries my books.

Nail emoji And he's lucky He's cute Hashtag marriage goals Hashtag autism acceptance Hashtag date night This ain't real No well it's not

This is real This is real It can't be This is real I look through her posts They're all like this There's no sense That they're satire

I'm putting up The iron dome To defend this Because this is real Okay As a reference to an episode That will come out In four days

On our bonus podcast Go to patreon.com I think it stands on its own It does It does Thank you I got the joke Thank you Josh

You're welcome Thank you Josh I'm here for you bud When my ex-husband Chris and I got divorced, the judge couldn't understand why we were splitting up because we got along so well. This picture was taken while we were settling our custody agreement. We left together and grabbed some groceries on our way back. Divorce doesn't have to be ugly. Hashtag co-parenting.

Hashtag divorce. Hashtag I love my ex. Oh, no. This is okay. And then a really good reply to this. This is really threads in a nutshell. Reply to that post. There's a photo of them looking totally bland at their divorce hearing.

Someone says, wishing you guys the best. I'm seeing this an hour after I received news that one of my former bosses killed himself and his wife. What? Who had filed for divorce in a murder-suicide last night. This post hits differently than it normally would have. It does hit differently in that case. Hit different. It would.

It definitely would. And that's from Wakanda Nomad. Hashtag marriage goals. Threads is weird. No, I'm trying to come up with like a riff or a bit for this. and there's nothing that I can say that's any stranger than what it is that we're reading right now. The post reads differently to me

because my boss killed his wife. And then himself. I think every post would read differently. Try to put this thread in your sweater. It's a great thread. We love threads. One thread weaves the next. It makes my brain itch.

Yeah, I don't know. And then here's her and her husband. This is my husband, Mike. He's 17 years old? Oh, these are the pictures. Oh, he's lucky he's cute. He's handsome. He's a good-looking guy.

Got a big beard. For somebody who's 17 years older than her, he does not look bad. No. But he does not like her. He does not like her. No, he does not. He likes alpaca socks. Loves socks.

Loves socks. Does not care for his now ex-wife. No, they're together still. What? They're married. They got divorced. No, no, no. No, no.

You're thinking of a different guy. Oh, sorry. Follow the thread. Follow the thread. They live with her ex-husband, who had the most amicable divorce ever. But her current husband is the one who hates her? Yes. Yeah, but I think it's a sexual relationship.

What a tangled web we weave. She seems like somebody who is incapable of finding a partner who likes her. Right. This is like somebody who's probably got borderline or something and just ends up in a codependent relationship with anybody. Someone named Brian Temples, even. Could be. Could be. This guy looks like a guy you'd find on an oil rig.

You could find a man like this on an oil rig. Big life. Anyway, she's got a blue check on thread, so I don't feel bad making fun of her. I feel like she's basically a damn celebrity. She's one of the elite. She's a screenwriter. She's a songwriter.

She has Jeremy's job. My dinosaur lumber snack of a husband comes downstairs the other day, walks right past my ex-husband, because we live together. Oh, my God. So she's made this her entire personality. Well, it's very interesting.

He approaches me and says, can you try these on? I'm crocheting you some booty shorts. Booty shorts. He is an artist, but he's going to need a lot more yarn. That's it. I have nothing else to say. Hashtag, I love my ex. Hashtag, divorce.

Hashtag, co-parenting. Hashtag, men who crochet. Hashtag, older men. Okay, Claire, I want to hear your thoughts on this. I feel like I've, you know, as everyone does know, I am famously in a polyamorous living the polyamorous lifestyle, but that's neither here nor there. Don't be living with your ex-husband. Well, I feel like it's relevant insofar as a lot of people who are poly or have like non-traditional relationship structures. there's a decent chunk of them who just have to make it everybody else's problem and i don't

understand why listen do you think he's a lumber snack or not also can we say you don't wear a shirt that says artist it also it also says on an oil rig it says art is yeah the the is an artist He's the perfect stepdad. But it's unclear what it's saying. Some people really need attention. Yes. Ultimately, what's happening? Yes.

What he's saying is art is tea. Testosterone. Art is tea. That's right, Doug. For big fellas. It's for big guys who work on an oil rig. It's for getting sloppy and we're pounding Claire through the Zoom. And Josh is trying to pound Claire.

He can't do it. He's not allowed to. Instead, it looks like I'm punching Alex in the face. This is from one day ago. Nobody punched Alex. wait wait wait go up go go go my autistic non-speaking son has trouble with chewing he's primarily fed by g-tube we're way off base here oh and now she's like this woman this woman this woman should go to hell i i i really don't like your son off of the don't don't turn your

fucking autistic son into content i'm not okay with the genuine way the other stuff was funny to me this makes me angry and can i just say are these women in porn actually coming because the penises are big that's a great question which is the question we're some of the time they do i like that the idea uh a lot of the misconception of like your penis is big enough to hit the button it's like a boxer having a big fist yeah yeah it's like you're guaranteed to hit that button because you're so big good night when i was a kid i i was a lifeguard and one our our boss was this guy who was like an english teacher in the winter and a lifeguard in the summer we all hated him because his dick was so big he used to always brag that he hit the back wall of his

wife's vagina oh my god i'm 16 don't talk to me and he'd be like yeah dude i hit my wife's back wall last night i think that i'm an english teacher it's teaching you about the structure of the back walls his mom used to hang out of the pool every day and she would yell at us i'm a real i'm a real cervix oriented type of fella i go around the house you know what i mean That's right, that's right. I do know what you mean. All right, let's do a listener question again. Wait, wait, wait.

I've given $50,000 to random Chinese women on WhatsApp. I don't know. I've given 50,000 women to random Chinese dollars, but you don't hear me

So this guy is like, not only is it real, I have also met her. Art is tea. She is incredibly beautiful, very articulate, very smart, very sophisticated,

Has an aunt who works in finance in the U.S. in California for 10 years and is now an executive with a bank in China who gives her tips when and what to invest with Forex and wants to teach me about Forex investing. I don't know what Forex is. Neither do I. Wanted me to download WhatsApp and met a trader. Five has pictures of LV handbags, has a nanny, plays golf, wants to build schools for impoverished children in China. That's a great detail. Do you want to know what Forex is? I can tell you if you want.

How quickly can you tell? Very quickly. Okay, sure. It's basically currency markets. Y'all heard of 3X? So it's arbitraging the differences between the values of currencies. So it's like, I think that the value of the dollar is going to go up relative to the pound. Therefore, I am going to buy dollars with pounds to buy the fucking...

We're back talking about dinar. I see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. This isn't too far away from the Iraqi dinar scam, actually, 4X. I learned about that from this podcast.

But if you want to see Alex and Jeremy in something that I am going to be doing on Sunday, May 24th, I believe it is. That's right. We are doing a live show for the Worst of All Possible Worlds at Littlefield in Brooklyn, where we are going to be reading some segments of an unproduced radio play, an extremely homophobic, unproduced radio play for children, which was actually made for real. It's not a bit. It was a real script made by an absolutely terrible Christian organization called Focus

on the Family. It's like if Eminem made a radio play for children. Claire, start rapping. No. As part of their long-running radio drama, Adventures in Odyssey. But this one was never produced. Right. And so we are getting a bunch of our friends, a bunch of, like, New York City theater actors, comedy actors together to read excerpts from this script.

And we are going to tear it the fuck apart. Josh said we're allowed to improvise and rip as much as we want. I did not say that. He said we can say any sort of homosovic stuff that we come up with either way before if we write it down. It's kind of a challenge to see who can come up with the moral of the whole thing. Yeah, that's what we were told. That is not what you were told. And I am excited.

That's what you were told. That's what AJ told me. Oh. AJ said, I want you to go hard out there. I want you to be as bad as possible. He's going to try to pull you back. I've got to take you back out. But, yeah, that's actually the thing that we're doing soon that I'm most excited about.

I'm very excited about it. Is that live show? Yeah. I don't know if this will come out before it, but I'm pretty sure it will. Yeah, it will. sure it will yeah so sunday may 24th again littlefield in brooklyn you can get tickets at our website which is worst possible dot world right if you would like more of our show we have guess what another episode every thursday so it's pretty much like five more quaraders a month if
