You know, I'm going to go feed them the bottle. just barely, you know what I'm not? And then I sober up right when I grab them. I'm like, why did I do this? I got to drink more so I can sleep.

Starting point is 00:05:28 Just one. Just one today. We got a great guest calling in. He's the FBI's Most Wanted man or something like that. Awesome. You're going to love him. He's a real con artist. Self-described con artist.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Perfect. Been to prison, etc. What was I? I was talking about something, though. What were we talking about? Old Mexican women drinking piss. Oh, yeah. You look like shit.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Deal with it. Doesn't you're fucking around with something, too. Why don't you lose some weight? Instead of drinking piss and playing around with piss, why don't you lose some weight, Fatso? That's going to be, hey, puta. That's going to be the ad campaign. Oi puta.

Starting point is 00:06:24 like they run AI over and over again. Oh, I remember, it was the fucking grease burn, this disgusting grease burn that I have. Because here's what makes me rage. Because I got this beautiful, wonderful cast iron pan for Christmas. And my fucking, my stupid brother-in-law also gave me this pan seasoning. You know, people in their cast iron are just such a, they really suck almost all the joy out of it. They make it so it's totally, I want to, when I have a cast iron pan, I want to pretend like I'm a cowboy, you know, and put it on an open fire. Not be thinking about seasoning and fucking
Starting point is 00:07:02 greasing the pan before and after. I don't want to read instructions. I'm not picturing a cowboy out there fucking daintily licking his handkerchief and spreading this pan-seasoning grease around before and after he uses it, right? No way. Merry Christmas, here's a kick-ass cast iron pan pan. Hey, and here's some pan seasoning moisturizer shit that you want to put that on before and after. I'm like, ah, now you got in my head that I have to put this on and you don't want to use soap. I'll use soap, God damn it. Have you seen
Starting point is 00:07:33 people doing the opposite direction and polishing the fuck out of their cast iron band? With a Dremel? Are they really? Yeah, dude. I don't even want to... It's disgusting. And then I go to I go to CVS to get like a Band-Aid and there's like 47 different types of Band-Aids and I pick one.
Starting point is 00:07:49 I'm in a hurry because we're late for lunch. Wait, you were cooking before lunch? I was cooking the night before. Oh. And I go, and this is why I'm self-conscious of this, because it looks so disgusting. I go to CVS and I'm like burn wound, wound band-aid thing, $15. Like, all right, awesome, I grab it.
Starting point is 00:08:10 And I get to the car and open it, and it's a, like a piece of saran wrap. I'm covering the wound, but it's just like a totally clear, sticky piece of saran wrap. Like, where the band-aids? What do you mean? Is this like a high-tech? Why was Saran wrapped $15 that I got it? And it doesn't work at all. Like a band-a-a-a-and-a-cut, and it stays there.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Like, you go to the, you know, it has that adhesive. This is like a suggestion. And it's totally see-through, so it's fucking disgusting. I'm sitting here staring at my wound all day. Did it come with a little cardboard roll in it, too? It has stages. It has stages, like, peel this off, then flip it over and step two. Peel this off.
Starting point is 00:08:51 What the fuck is this? It's like a screen protector. Yeah, it was like a fucking screen protector. And the only reason I have it is because I was using that stupid seasoning shit. I put the pan on and I was going to make stakes on and I was like, all right, I'm going to sear this shit out of these things. It's going to be awesome. And I hear that voice in my head and all the Reddit threads going like, oh, you got to season the fucking pan. So I'm like, all right, fine.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I scoop some out and slap it on. And then I go to put the steak on and it fucking slips out of the tongs, right? because it had been marinating, and it does like one of these, whap, and just flings like a perfect shot. Ugh. You're the burned man now.
Starting point is 00:09:32 I'm the fucking dark man. And then I was doing the usual, ignore it. Like, just ignore it. You know, whatever. It's just skin. Heels. This is one thing I don't have to worry about is if skin gets damaged.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Everyone's like, you got to cover that up. No. I don't care. I'm just sitting around. No one said to add some of, roasted garlic and some fucking rosemary sprigs break. I gotta put some piss on it. Morning piss.
Starting point is 00:09:59 So I'm outside. Wacking the rain clears up for like 10 seconds. So I'm like, oh, I'm going to whack the weeds from a yard, right? I got to do some like homeowner type shit. Get the hell out of the house. I got a lot of activities I got to do today.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Well, the sun's out. Let me just fire up the weed whacker. You know? Right? I'm like, hell yeah, this is cool. I got to cut off sleeves. Yeah, trying to do some yard work. So our house doesn't always look like the worst one.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Everyone's like these fucking Mexicans. Fucking Mexicans, man. It's a Mexican house. Someone with the propane tank in the front yard. Ironically. It has no valve on it. Oh. Just freebly.
Starting point is 00:10:49 What were you going to say? I was going to say, ironically enough, it's the most unkempt yarded house. I know. I know, because I stack all these things and I got to like finish one before I can start the other and I just never get any of them done. The city fucked me with their deck stuff. The city totally fucked me. They should have fucked you with some yards.
Starting point is 00:11:08 It's all that damn government's fun. Yeah, they're probably gonna, they're gonna start with that. So I take the weed whacker out and I shit you not. The first fucking weed I whack is because immediately, into a big pile of fresh dog shit, which turns into a fine mist. It doesn't even like, it doesn't splatter. I mean, I charged this thing up.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I overcharged it. The battery was like 110% like fucking Ironman. I'm like, oh, hell yeah. And I stretched out the little thing. I stretched out the little weed wacky fucking tennis racket thing. All the max way it will go. I'm like, hell yeah. I'm going to do some fucking yard work.
Starting point is 00:11:54 All right. I'm going to do some fucking yard work to celebrate Venice. I get out there and go for weed number one and there's just this gross sound the smell hits the mist appears right away the fucking
Starting point is 00:12:10 the fucking fog monster the brown fog comes in hits immediately I'm like this is an odd sort of fog and then the smell hits like you gotta be fucking kidding me did I just weed whack it's like floating one of those power
Starting point is 00:12:28 wall mushroom. Dude, it was like a fucking bank counterfeit explosion, like a bank robbery, die explosion. Man, man, so I put it down, I will go in and my wife goes, that was fast. Like, well, because I, because I weed waxed right into a big pile of dog shit. She's like, did you get any on your shoes? You got it? I'm like, honey, it's all over. It's in everything. It's thing and she goes, look, you got it in your wound too. I guess you should have put a Band-Aid on that thing. I was like, all right, let's go to brunch.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Let's go. I'm done. You lift your glasses up from the outline. Yeah, I lifted my glasses up and there's like an outline of shit. Like a total total shit coverage. And now the, and my glass, like it's in the screws

Starting point is 00:13:38 I always get crappy glasses. I tried getting nice glasses. The Dr. Phil ones, but this woman slapped me and messed them up and this woman fucking slapped me in Vegas and broke those or bent them up so they're irreparable. And the other ones,
Starting point is 00:13:50 a fish slapped them off of me on a deep sea fishing boat. A fucking fish got flinged out of the water and slapped my expensive glasses into the ocean. You got shit in your glasses? So I said I'm done. And your open wound, too?
Starting point is 00:14:03 That's crazy. Yeah, and my open wound. I'm like, I got to go wash all this dog shit out of my fucking open wound. She goes, oh, you should have had a band-aid like everyone was saying. Like, I'm like, I can't.
Starting point is 00:14:15 I tried to get a Band-Aid. I guarantee you I'll try to get a Band-Aid and it will get fucked up. I fucking guarantee it. I fucking guarantee you if I try to get a Band-Aid, it will be, something will be messed up. Because I'm not getting a small one.
Starting point is 00:14:27 You gotta do what every other Mexican construction worker does. Just get a pack of pro clubs from the liquor store of the long sleeves and just let your arm heal into it for a couple days. It'll be fine. So I have this shit. This Reynolds rap shit. This can't be medical. It's just, it's all on the front like, oh man, this has been engineered. There's no way this has been engineered.
Starting point is 00:14:48 It's a piece of plastic. Oh, man. Dude, that's like, that's weed whacker 101, man. You can't be. I know. Oh, man. I figured I could see because I saw some dog shit. I'm like, there's the dog shit right there.

Starting point is 00:16:03 And I went outside to, like, shoot it away or something. And I tripped on a box. Like, there was a box there, and I fucking slit. It was two boxes, flat boxes, and I slipped, right? That fucking pisses me off. I slipped. And I wake up to her. She C-Ced me on this email to the local news,

Starting point is 00:16:58 You fucking creating a brown mist. Yeah. That's fucking well I learned that the hard way as a kid We mean my friend stuck like one of those little birthday candle dynamites and a pile of dog shit We're like whatever these things don't do much That's a dumb it And it covered the whole side of his parents house And it was like a little pile of shit too. We're like what the fuck? So we had to spend probably three days cleaning it. It was a nightmare, but man, something
Starting point is 00:17:32 about like a loud bang and then sheer destruction afterwards is fucking hilarious. Oh no, why did we do that? Yeah. Oh, no. And then we were like, yeah, but these are waterproof. And then so we had a little above ground pool in the backyard.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Yeah. Through one in there. And I watched all the water just come straight out if it was frozen and lifted out in one solid piece. Really? It just like came up and then splice. Flushing everywhere afterward, but it was like for like a split second. It was the most impressive thing I'd ever seen Did it ruin the pool? Yeah, fuck that up. I've got in a shit of trouble. Yeah, um Hey, hey, I've been I've been waiting to hear this my my whole life
Starting point is 00:18:16 We're taking the oil Yeah, oh no Man Look, I hate all the Israel shit I hate all the Trump admin too, but, ma-ha-ha-ha. Hey, hey, we're here.
Starting point is 00:18:32 We're taking the oil. Oh! I've been waiting 34 years to hear somebody say that. When did they start going on it? When was the Gulf War? This is about terrorism. Not's about oil.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Yeah. Hey, Trump, he's, he's doing nation, but just admit that you're taking the oil. All this talk of peak oil over the decades and finally, now we are at peak oil. We finally
Starting point is 00:18:59 We finally got Something we voted for I finally got something I voted for Taking it It's called We're going in We're killing the guy who's causing problems Like that
Starting point is 00:19:13 Taking him Whatever blackbagging him Getting him out of there And then we're taking all of their stuff Which rightfully belongs To us He's like That's great
Starting point is 00:19:25 I've been laughing my ass off all morning I saw Marco Rubio on the news, and the woman asked him, the woman asked him, why didn't you get all the other narco terrorists in Venezuela? He goes, you mean, why didn't we do what we did, but five to five other people in five other locations?
Starting point is 00:19:46 Are you serious? That's totally absurd. All at once? All at once? Why didn't we do it five more times? Oh my God. It's crazy. great. It's fucking great. It's fucking great. And yet it is being spoiled by nonstop
Starting point is 00:20:04 doomers and gloomers out there who for some insane reason think that being unable to teach a bunch of Islamic pedophiles and goat fuckers how to do a democracy. Failing at that means somehow you can't do that in Venezuela, which you absolutely can. Mexicans can do a democracy. They're really good at following instructions, as it turns out. Middle Easterners? No, they're not good. They do not follow instructions.
Starting point is 00:20:38 They fuck kids. They go, oh, yeah. So when does the kid fucking start? Because I got fucked as a kid. And so I'm wondering when my turn at the fucking kids is like, no, that's not, that's not democracy. Huh, well, then we're not doing it. Because I got to fuck, I got to fuck some botcha-bazis, man.
Starting point is 00:20:55 That's what I said. to do it, yeah. Somebody's got to fuck these boys. Mexicans love it. It's great. Is everyone aware that... So Venezuela, right? It seems like everyone's kind of like
Starting point is 00:21:10 learning as they do. Everybody, like, there's like an information gap where nobody knows... There's a massive fucking information gap. Everybody's just like, they think of the one thing they know, which is either Harry Potter, Star Wars, or Israel. And then it's got to be, somehow, it's got to be one of those three things that we're doing. Like either, well, what do we just do?
Starting point is 00:21:29 Well, how is it like Harry Potter? How is it like Star Wars? How is Israel involved? And it's just like a totally different and new thing. It's called political assassinations. If there's one thing that we've learned over the last, I don't know how many years, is that that's the most effective way. It's called terrorism.
Starting point is 00:21:50 That's the most effective way to get what you want. You find the guy who's being a penis and you take him out. and then just wait for the next guy to come and say like well did you see what we did to that guy so well it's crazy because like all of history and like establishing borders and creating all this shit over the fucking however many quadrillion years but it's like it's the same shit we just have social media now yeah it's like if we didn't have phones I didn't know what was going on it'd still be going on I can't believe it um vansuel is shitload of oil more than any country on earth right
Starting point is 00:22:26 And then communist came in and took it. Hugo Chavez said, I'm going to do a military coup. Caesar fucking Chavez, man. What? Caesar fucking Chavez came in and took it. So he said, okay, we're doing communism. Everybody gets free stuff. And everyone's like, oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Awesome. How? So we're going to, we got all this oil. We're going to sell the oil and give you free stuff, like all the shit they had all you commies love, like health care for some reason. I'm never anything fun it's always like crappy stuff
Starting point is 00:22:58 education and health care alright here have a ton of that they always want universal basics I want universal advancedics yeah I want good stuff water parks man you know
Starting point is 00:23:09 double water parks double water parks give me some good stuff um so then they let the obviously don't have to fuck they're doing with the oil fields
Starting point is 00:23:18 so they're like well because the US made it in the first place like well it doesn't matter We're making our oil This gets less and less less But whatever
Starting point is 00:23:27 This is what we like This is what we want to do We want to do communism Okay No one's gonna stop them Right Because until yesterday No one ever want to say the phrase
Starting point is 00:23:37 We're taking the oil It's just been a really limiting thing Um So Well gets less and less and less And people get dumber and dumber and dumber And they start doing communist shit Sending
Starting point is 00:23:49 fucking criminal cartels Into the US To do what their whole point is terrorize people, kill them, take their stuff. And then all the Venezuelans say, our country, oil's dropping, we're not making enough because we suck at running it
Starting point is 00:24:04 and the government's running it. Basically why communism never works, because the dumbest people in the world are running it. And there's no way to take it away from them and let someone smart do it. Yeah, but you just got to give it a chance, yeah, yeah. It was great when the oil's up, but now everything sucks. Now oil's down
Starting point is 00:24:21 and all of our facilities are like shitty because everyone's just like a con artist and a criminal. Who could have thought? We need to come into the U.S. We need like hundreds of thousands, millions of us come to U.S. And of course, liberals go.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Oh yeah. You guys, the guys that voted for a communist? Absolutely. Come on in. How many you got? As many as you want. Come on in. I just don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:51 So obviously, the only thing. possible solution is to kill that guy and get their oil going again and to send them all back, right? I don't know why this is, I don't know why it's taking everyone so long to get on board with the kill that guy and send everyone back plan, but that's obviously the only way to fucking do it. Oh yeah, huh? You guys are running, well, let's go ahead and take that guy out. Then you got to go back. but not it's just nonstop this is a this is regime change
Starting point is 00:25:26 this is just like Iraq it's not like Iraq at all no fucking Allah there's no Muslim shit South America's half white did everybody forget that they'll do they do democracy
Starting point is 00:25:37 they were doing it just fine until they started stealing elections and it all falls apart because in Latin America you have to every once in a while kill the guy that wants to be dictator It's just a flaw and a feature in the Mexican way of thinking
Starting point is 00:25:57 It's one of the like you get a pro and con for whatever race you are Yep exactly it's one of the many it's one of the it's one of the One of the weaknesses on the card oh every once in a while they'll have a little They'll have a little dictator and you got to kill them You got a point zero one chance of like having to do some incredibly violent shit in your life Yeah they like it a little bit of a multiplier they like it That guy wants to get killed. That's why he's doing it.
Starting point is 00:26:23 It's like a weird kind of lemming psychology. Like he says, the White House is dropping N-words. You see that? No. They said, if you don't know, now you know, and they cut it off and played the song. Oh, man. I was like, oh, my God. We're getting there.
Starting point is 00:26:38 You mean I can finally get a government job? Holy shit. Yeah, we're back, baby. All right. When people forget, too, the ultimate reason of sending all the Venezuelans out of this country so we can have one road soda on the way home from work. One beer. Just one.
Starting point is 00:26:53 The goal is one beer. Just one. You know how many beers you could have driving around communist Venezuela? None. None. You can't even have a car. You can't even have a car. Property is theft, all right?
Starting point is 00:27:04 I hate celebrating alone. I guess that's all it is. That's all it is. This is great, man. Yeah, uh, I voted for this. Kill the guy. Kill the guy in charge. No, no boots on, no army occupation.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Just kill the guy. And tell the next guy. Hey, by the way, we're going to do that again. The thing I love so much about this is, like, all these fucking years my whole life, I've just been told, like, and by everyone, too, like, oh, well, you know, the thing with government is always takes time. It's always, like, everyone acts like there's so much fucking red tape. Nothing can ever get done. And Trump's just been like, no, we're doing this. We're going to do it.
Starting point is 00:27:40 And it's like, that just makes me think everyone who's ever like. It's full of shit. Yeah. It's just like all you fucking. That's white people flaw. You see that on the back of their car. We gotta come to some kind of consensus about this. Nah, let's just do it. Yeah Let's one guy just do it.

Starting point is 00:40:50 Claire. Does he put a wig on when he writes this email? Yeah. It seems that you haven't been treating him well, confusing him and pretending to be his friend over the years. At times, taking advantage of him on the pretense of giving him false hope of popularity, in the guise of being popular,
Starting point is 00:41:08 in actual fact, you and others laughing at him and giving him infamy. And when he is no use, emotionally abusing him and ignoring his messages, making him feel worthless and devastated, even though you took advantage of him. May I ask exactly, may I ask what exactly going on
Starting point is 00:41:28 and why you treated him like this? It seems cruel. I would like to know why the above. Hope to hear from you. Regards. Chris. This is from Claire. Okay.

Starting point is 00:42:22 that ski resort that caught on fire? And everybody, everyone died because they were because they were filming it. Yeah, wait, watch this. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:42:34 This is great. Sounds like something out of my segment. God damn. Yeah, it does. Here it is. Swiss ski resort bar fire. I think it was on New Year's. Was it a breath holding contest
Starting point is 00:42:46 they were filming? It is. Yeah, here we go. Okay. So here's the ski resort catching on fire. Warning, it has disturbing content. Okay, get out of here. So there's the fire. Look at all the people just filming it.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Jesus. There's, oh yeah, flames right there. So it's just pointing right at them. It doesn't even look like that. All of them are recording. Look at that. There's like, there's like, uh, 15 people. Johnny, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Okay. The flames are now out of, totally out of control. Like this, you see, this is a death trap. You're dead now. These flames are, they're now, they started on the roof. Just because of those stupid sparklers that, like, poor people are just fascinated by. That they bring out of them, dude. Oh, dude.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I saw Jeff Bezos and his wife at like St. Bartz or whatever with all the billionaires for New Year's. And it's the same, except instead of a bunch of like hot young whores carrying them out, it was a bunch of like middle-aged
Starting point is 00:43:59 whores carrying out champagne buckets and those fucking sparklers. They love and the signs. They just love a sign. It's like such a boomer anachronism. Yeah It's just like You gotta have like
Starting point is 00:44:14 Well you gotta have the fanfare Otherwise you gotta have a sign Yeah Otherwise you're just drinking Alcohol Yeah This is a whole commemorating it with like a
Starting point is 00:44:24 You need a sign TableScape and all that shit Yeah yeah yeah So they brought one of those out At this bar And it caught the roof on fire Obviously Um
Starting point is 00:44:36 Because they're the shooting fire Out of the sparklers And then everybody films it, everybody's standing around filming it then the whole bar catches on fire which you can see here this is a serious death trap. This is like Inglorious Bastards theater on fire
Starting point is 00:44:51 right? Yeah it looks like you're on set somewhere this is insane and they're still recording it oh there goes if I saw a fire like that I'm getting the fuck out of there yeah then they have this candlelight vigil
Starting point is 00:45:12 I don't know if that's appropriate Yeah, it should at least be the battery candles. Put down your fucking phone. That's what it should be on the vigil. There should just spell that out with all the candles. Put your fucking phone down. Put it in your fucking ass. Put it in your ass.
Starting point is 00:45:30 You don't need. There's got to, there's, like, I know if it's against FTC regulations to have these phone jamming devices, but it would make everything so much better. if either all the people who compulsively filmed like this died in a horrific fire or if there was some sort of a jamming thing that you could just turn off and have like a 90s bar in early 90s bar. They got to have Costco build every building
Starting point is 00:45:59 because every time I'm in fucking Costco I get zero reception whatsoever. It's like a dead zone. Every Costco I've ever gone to. There's got to be something we can do. The initial moments of the deadly fire, yeah, in Switzerland, about 40 people were killed and more than 100 people were injured because they couldn't go off their fucking phone.
Starting point is 00:46:19 We gotta get this. Oh, well. It could be a really good Nokia ad, though, if all the phones survived. Yeah, that's true. That'll be nice. Okay, let me see what else I got here. Women are throwing a fit
Starting point is 00:46:34 that Grock is putting them in bikinis. Just another day on the internet, I guess. and Elon says if you do illegal stuff with Croc you're gonna go to jail again this feels like I feel like Twitter should have just stayed in Silicon Valley yeah like all this shit should have just stayed up there
Starting point is 00:47:01 and if you leave the border of Silicon and none of it works ever again yeah are we ever going to be able to like do anything good with anything like we I want a technology where I can see women naked without having to do any work. Right.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Like that's my right. Closing my eyes and thinking is a little too much. It's too much work. And I always imagine the same thing. You know, I need like a computer to spice it up. Like, hmm, oh, I didn't, I didn't imagine that. Well, I sure, surely I wouldn't have imagined this. I've imagined all the kinds of ways that I could imagine women naked by now.
Starting point is 00:47:42 I need a new 360 Vitruvian man Picture that you can rotate I need something fresh I need a computer to do it for me I don't just want computers to You know right like Synopsies of my emails
Starting point is 00:48:01 And pretend to do customer service You know I hate all that And like make crappy looking pictures I don't want that I want everybody we just want it to make women naked
Starting point is 00:48:19 for less work that's the that's the goal that's always been the goal of technology since the beginning of time to make women naked for free I'm just thinking about customer service too and like think about like
Starting point is 00:48:34 every time you get a customer service email you know it's fucking this AI I know And it's like, don't fucking insult my intel. I know you don't give a shit. Yeah. The best customer service email I've gotten. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:49:02 I was like, hey, you know, this is my order number, blah, blah, blah. And it's, farts. Correct size shirt two days later. Dude, it's, the AI is like totally ruined hiring. You can't interview. We were, we were, uh, we were trying to get a nanny. Oh, yeah, done. They like, it goes from totally eloquent writing to cannot speak any English at all.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Like, you gotta be fucking kidding me. Uh, you don't see that this is a slight misrepresentation or? Just a, oh, a gross, uh, miss, uh. Like, what? is this? How do you how do you rationalize this? It's not you at all. Like most people at least try to put in
Starting point is 00:49:46 the effort but you've got Indians you've got people who like can't even say English just writing every application like cranking it out with AI. It's crazy. I got a spam text this morning at 730
Starting point is 00:50:02 that was like I'm from this staffing agency and we're you know we've got all these open jobs I was just like 7.30 on a fucking Sunday. Like, wrong time zone, asshole. Like, I know you're in fucking India right now. You can't fucking lie to me like this.
Starting point is 00:50:20 So we're choking on the generative AI and the one saving grace is not having to work so goddamn hard to see women naked. And what do they do? First, number one. Straight to jail. First thing.
Starting point is 00:50:36 Take it away from us. I wish they would just take AI as a whole away from us Me too You know what First time we did this shit You guys made it super racist and we had to pull it offline Yeah it was awesome though The Microsoft one
Starting point is 00:50:53 Yeah, TAY Yeah, it's funny And then it was like You know, we should have just been like You know what? This is a waste of our time That's all it's ever gonna be Yeah, it's fine But they kept trying to fucking keep forcing that experiment
Starting point is 00:51:06 Every time I see these these billionaires like crying about their data centers not getting approval. Like what? Everyone hates this stuff, guys. Yeah. Like everyone fucking hates AI. We hate seeing the pictures. You don't let us do anything fun with it.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Like do racist stuff or make women naked. Yeah. So what do you expect? Like no one, no one wants your gay data center. The power sucking, water wasting, whatever the narratives is for it. But it's more like, no, we just hate the what you're making. It's like you're building a fuck you factory And surprise that everyone hates it

Starting point is 00:55:07 So my wife My wife and I were cruising Reddit We've got a newborn So we're like sending videos to each other At two and three in the morning To pass the time of the baby sleeping on us And we found one of your AMAs And one of your
Starting point is 00:55:23 This video you're doing where you were saying That you were you were doing a fake survey Of the homeless And you were getting their You were getting their social security numbers And then taking out credit cards
Starting point is 00:55:40 in their name was that the was that the deal I mean it was a little bit more than that yeah more than just credit cards but yeah well that's what I found so then I was like wait a minute what's this guy what's going on here because this is this is great so I went through
Starting point is 00:55:55 and you were one of your videos says you were the FBI's most wanted man and there was like what did I wrote it? No I don't know I don't know who posted that yeah I you know here I can tell you how that happened. Okay. Are we, are we, is this the, the interview?
Starting point is 00:56:12 Yeah, we're going. Yeah. Okay. Well, so that actually happened because I did, um, I did a Danny Jones podcast, the first podcast I ever did. And I explained on the podcast that I was number one on the secret services most wanted list. Yeah. And then when he posted the video, he said the FBI's most wanted fugitive or number one
Starting point is 00:56:36 fugitive or something. And I was like, I called him up immediately. I was like, yo, when he posted, I said, hey, that's not true. It's Secret Service. And he goes, bro, it's YouTube. Nobody cares. I care. That's the first thing I saw. Secret Service is so much more interesting. No, see, he said, nobody even knows that the Secret Service, like, all they, you know, they protect the president. He's like, nobody even knows they go after guys like you. And I was like, no, that's, I don't think that's true. He said, bro, it doesn't matter. And it's already posted. and he's like, there's no YouTube police. He goes, it'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:57:08 But then, but everybody says that. Yeah, now everyone thinks that. All of them say that. And I'm like, look, I'm not saying I was wanted by the FBI. Yeah. I was definitely on the one on like their wanted list, right? Yeah. But I wasn't like number one on the fugitive list.
Starting point is 00:57:24 I was just, but I was number one on the Secret Service's most wanted list. Okay, so your bio is, this is Matthew Cox, everyone. check out his show. You're a con man and you recently completed a lengthy prison sentence for a variety of bank fraud related charges.
Starting point is 00:57:45 I love this part. On your bio you say, and I'm 100% guilty of them all. I was incarcerated at a federal correctional complex in Coleman, Florida. It's not a bad place
Starting point is 00:57:58 as prisons go. Some inmates do their time in the recreation yard walking the track, and doing push-ups. Others learn to play an instrument. I spent my time in the institution's library writing my fellow inmates' stories.
Starting point is 00:58:09 Sometimes it was a memoir. Other times it was a true crime. And as a result, I heard an outrageous amount of stories. That's crazy, man. What an interesting way to spend. How long were you in prison? Like 10 years, 9 years? 13 years.
Starting point is 00:58:22 13 years. What an interesting way to spend the time. Writing a guy everyone's story. It's not like, you know, I want to take a horde of one. culture class or something. Like, I'm not, I'm not a farmer, you know, so I'm not going to do anything, you know, like, what am I going to do? I was just trying to figure out something I could do when I got out of prison that was not going to require me to work in the sun. And so, yeah, it was, basically
Starting point is 00:58:53 what you realize very quickly when you're incarcerated is that, like, there's just tons of these guys have these stories that are just amazing. And, And I heard by that, by the time I decided to start writing, I was like, you know, I'd probably heard 30 different stories that every one of them I was like, why is this not a movie? Yeah. Why isn't, you know, what's, but then you start to realize like, this isn't a movie because these guys can't, they can't tell their stories. And I don't mean that in a bad way. Because even when I wrote my, my memoir, it's very hard to write a story about yourself because you don't really see yourself. the way you truly are.
Starting point is 00:59:34 Yeah. You know, or the way other people see you. And, and, you know, you get emotional and you want to explain things. And it becomes long-winded or you're just not a good storyteller in general. So I told my, I first wrote my memoir. And then I started writing other people's memoirs. I ended up writing a guy's memoir. You know, you ever see the movie War Dogs?
Starting point is 01:00:00 Um, yeah, with, uh, was that, Jonah Hill. Yeah, with Jonah Hill where they're taking the, um, they're doing gun run, they're gun running, right? They're taking the, they're giving the lowest bid and then buying guns and then reselling them to the U.S. government. Yeah, that's a, did you write that? I wrote, so Ephraim Debroli is the guy Jonah Hill plays. Yeah. He's Ephraim, Ephraim Debril. And, um, I was in prison with him and I wrote his memoir. No kidding. Now, Ephraim says that Warner, brothers stole his memoir and used it to write the movie and then he sued Warner Brothers. Completely untrue. But I'm the one that wrote the memoir. I mean, he published it and, you know, when he got out, but I wrote it when he was incarcerated. And it's ever-deverelli with Matthew Cox. And so I wrote his memoir, but while it was locked up and, you know, so that was, it's called Once a Gun Runner.
Starting point is 01:00:56 Yeah. So I wrote my memoir first. and then after writing my memoir and researching it, because, of course, you know, I couldn't remember all the dates and everything. So I had to order, like, the Freedom of Information Act, and I had to order all these documents. On your own life or on his?
Starting point is 01:01:12 No, even on mine. Even on yours. But even on mine, like, I can't remember the day that this happened or this one closed or I did. So I started requesting documents, and I figured out how the Freedom of Information Act works. And the great thing about this is that you would get your name calls, for a mail call.
Starting point is 01:01:31 Yeah. This doesn't, it's not going to make sense to you, but anybody that's ever been incarcerated to listen to your show is going to know how important this is, it is very exciting when you go to mail call and you have a letter. Like, anything is great because somebody remembers you or you hear your name called. And so I would order these doc. It was exciting in general. I'm ordering Freedom of Information Act.
Starting point is 01:01:55 And I'm getting them in. I'm getting these reports in from the FBI and the Secret Service. Florida Department of Law Enforcement and, you know, all these companies and they're sending in stuff and these agencies and I'm able to get transcripts. And so it allowed me a bunch of time to do research to put together my outline. Because of course, from a criminal's perspective, I don't know what law enforcement was doing. Dude, that's what I was going to ask. So you're getting, you're getting freedom of information requests of them tracking you. You're getting like, you're getting, I mean, you're basically watching like the movie from the good guys point of view
Starting point is 01:02:29 through your request. You can read, wow, that's, that's got to be crazy. And the other thing is you're finding out like when did they get the first, when did they find out about? You know, who came in and cooperated and told them about me? And then what did they do from there? And then the warrants and who signed the warrants and what did the warrants say? and you get to read the master affidavits and all these things that law enforcement right up.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Going back a little bit, can you, like, can you briefly explain what you did and what they got you for? Because I've got so many questions about the Freedom of Information Act stuff. Like, was there, were there any surprises? Were you like, this guy, like, this guy turned me in
Starting point is 01:03:13 or this is where I fucked up or, you know, I could have got away with it, you know? Sometimes it's sometimes it's you think that you know what happened. Yeah. And then you find out, that's not what happened at all. You know, that's not who turned me in. Or that's not who was chasing me down the street or for whatever reason.
Starting point is 01:03:32 You find out, like, you know something happened, but you didn't really know how it happened. And so, you know, look, it's exciting. But so here's how I got in, ultimately got in trouble. You want me to give you like a five-minute version? Well, I think the number I saw was you had, I mean, you had taken like $60 million at one point. What was the, did you have a final? It was 50. 55. $55 million you stole.
Starting point is 01:03:57 Right. Yeah. I mean, that's the simplest way to put it. Well, I was involved in $55 million with a fraud is what they said. But basically, I own a mortgage company. And when I say I owned a mortgage company, I owned a mortgage company in Florida, which meant that you had to take a weekend course, pass the course, and then you took the state test, passed the state test. And then for an extra $300. So now I became a mortgage broker and I had to work for a broker's business. Okay. For an extra $300 I could become the brokerage business. So I did work. So it's like nothing. It's nothing. Wow.
Starting point is 01:04:34 So I did work for, and that was at that, I don't know what it is now. Now it's $400. Yeah. Well, and now they probably have, I'm sure,
Starting point is 01:04:43 because of the Dodd-Frank Act, I'm sure they did something different, but it's probably still not that difficult. It's Florida. They'll license you pretty much for anything. Yeah. So what ended up happening was I, I went to work for somebody
Starting point is 01:04:55 else for about a year. And then I started my own company. And in the course of just being a broker, I started committing fraud. And once I started my own company, you know, it was very important that we make money. And I was already making money, but I started hiring a bunch of guys. We basically turned it into a mill, maybe 10 or 12 guys were just cranking out loans every month. And, but eventually after a year or so, I ended up getting in trouble. So people that used to work for me started their own business. They got in trouble for committing fraud. They ended up cooperating with the FBI.
Starting point is 01:05:33 They wore a wire on me. I got in trouble with the FBI. And then I just took a plea deal and I said, I'll do, get three years probation. Because I hadn't lost any money. They had lost like half, they lost like half a million dollars. What kind of fraud? What is fraud in the mortgage business that you guys are doing? Are you writing totally fraudulent loans?
Starting point is 01:05:54 Are you just like, no, no. At this point, I'm doing stuff like, let's say you wanted to buy a house and you needed to make $60,000, but you only made, you know, $55,000. I would change your W-2s and pay stubs to say you made $65,000. Oh, okay. So you qualify for the loan. Yeah, okay. You're thinking that's not that big of a deal, but what's happened is you now just borrowed $300,000 that you don't really qualify for. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:22 And so that's $300,000 in fraud. That's the way they look at it. What year was that, that you were doing that? 1999, 2000. Okay, so it was before the great financial crisis. Yeah, before the 2008 financial crisis. Yeah, so it seems like a lot of people might have been doing that. Right, so by 2001, I get indicted.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Well, I don't get indicted. I actually just get charged. Okay. So I got charged, I waived the indictment. Because I was guilty and they had a wire on. They had me, I was, had been wired or caught on a wire. So I ended up pleading guilty and I got three years probation, but I couldn't be a mortgage broker anymore.
Starting point is 01:07:05 Okay. And so as a result of that, you know, I was saying, you know, looking back, like I, you know, I was deeply in debt, right? So when I say in debt, I mean, we were, I was getting a divorce, you know, if you're carrying credit cards for $30,000 and you're making $200,000 plus a year, and keep mind, this is 20 years ago. Like, that's not a big. deal. But, you know, and you have like a couple car payments and you got a couple houses and I had like,
Starting point is 01:07:28 we had like 55 rental units. My wife and I, we bought a ton of rental units because I could easily get the loans. So, and I'm in the middle of getting a divorce. And so, you know, my bills are eight or nine thousand. And like I said, that's 20 years ago. And now I don't have a job. Like I, the business, I sold the business, but it's only, I'm, I basically financed it to somebody who's paying me. Yeah. Okay. So how do I make money? And what I always say I should have done was just like claim bankruptcy. Sure. I should have claimed bankruptcy gone back to my parents' house. But, you know, at this point, I was like 33 and just didn't want to, I just did not want to take a step backwards.
Starting point is 01:08:07 And so what I did was I started committing a much larger fraud. And I decided I was going to kind of quasi start building houses and renovating houses and maybe eventually open a development company, which is what the ultimate goal was. It did happen, but not real. So I ended up, what I decided I was going to do was start flipping houses in Ebor City, which is an area of Tampa. It's basically close to downtown Tampa.
Starting point is 01:08:35 And it's like saying, it's like New Orleans, let's say 7th Avenue. It's the area of 7th, or what is it? No, 7th Avenue. What am I saying? We had a show there in Ebor. Let's say, oh, okay. So you know, let's say it's kind of like Burbage Street.
Starting point is 01:08:50 Right. Yeah, it's like a party city. Houses and, you know, it's a low, kind of a low income area. Yeah. And so I decided I'm going to start buying houses there. I'm going to renovate the houses and sell the houses because you could buy houses for $50,000 there. Okay.
Starting point is 01:09:03 Rehab. They might need $50,000 in rehab. But even if you put $50,000 in rehab, you could sell them for maybe $120, $130, $140 or $50. But you then have to get people that qualified that will live in that area. Well, those people that live in lower income areas, they're not great borrowers. So it's like, okay, this is, it's just a bad situation. And I thought, well, you know, what I should do is just start kind of creating my own borrowers. And I figured out how to get, so I figured out how to get Social Security to issue Social Security numbers to children that don't exist.
Starting point is 01:09:44 The way I did that was I just called Social Security over and over again and gave them different scenarios. You know, first it was like, oh, I'm 33 and I never had a social security number. And they're like, yeah, that's not possible. Hang out, call back, give them another scenario. I very quickly realized that you would have to be a child to have not had a social security number. And then they wanted me to bring in my child, my five-year-old child. So then I was like, okay, then I call back. And I'm like, my kids, eventually they said, look, if your kid's under 12 months old, you have to bring them in.
Starting point is 01:10:13 So I call back. I say, I got a 10-month-old kid. He was born with a midwife, not in a husband. hospital and he doesn't have a social security number and they would be like and they'd say so you're building like the you're building like the list of stuff that you need to answer correctly every time you call back like groundhogs day oh yeah a midwife and he's a wheel chair he's in an iron lung so he can't come in okay so eventually they say bring in so come in with a birth certificate for your child and a shot record and i was able to make a birth certificate and a shot record
Starting point is 01:10:51 And then you can, and then you have a, like a fake person. Right. Then they give me a social security number. Once I get the social security number, I then go online and I apply for credit cards. I don't say he's a fucking 10-month-old kid. I say he's like 30, 33 years old. This is a big jump from falsifying W-2s to qualify for mortgages to making fake people. It's all fraud.
Starting point is 01:11:16 I mean, it seems like, like if I knew somebody was doing the first one, I'd go like, you should stop that. But if I heard they were doing the second, I'd be like, you're going to jail, dude. That's a real, that's a real extreme crime that you're doing. Well,
Starting point is 01:11:28 it gets worse because I started getting credit cards and then I built credit profiles. And then, of course, these people, I also was able to make W2s of pay stubs. I would make fake companies, fake bank websites to cover their down payments. So that they would have website,
Starting point is 01:11:47 there would be a website. You could go to like Southern Exchange Bank of Clarksville. There was a website. It would say that, you know, I had fake bank statements. You could call in and I would, somebody would verify the money in the bank. There is no bank. I just made it up. They would all call you and you'd answer the phone. Like you'd have different lines for all these different things. It would be me or somebody, one of my associates or something. So we had did the bank of Ebor. We had, keep mind, these lenders are not in Florida. Like these are in California or New York or Chicago. So I start building these fake people and then I start having
Starting point is 01:12:28 them buy properties. But what I realized was if you buy these properties in these fake people's names, then, you know, like what are they going to do? I'm going to buy a house for 50,000 and refinance it. So, you know, that's not going to make me any money. Right. And what I realized I was at this point, I was divorced. I was dating a chick that worked at a title company. I figured We had a discussion, and I basically said, how can I buy these houses and record the sale of these houses at higher values? And she said, well, if you pay the extra doc documentary stamps on the deed, then it'll show up in public records as a higher sale. So I would buy a house for, let's say, $50,000, and my doc stamps should be $350. But you pay an extra, let's say, $1,150, or $1,000, or $1,050, pay an extra $1,000 and change, and it would show up as a $200,000 sale.
Starting point is 01:13:27 Okay. So if you buy four or five of these in one area within a few blocks of each other, the whole area shoots up through the room. So over the course of 18 months or so, the FBI says, I bought. did 109 of these transactions. Now, that's not true. Okay. What is the real number more? No, no, it was lower than that.
Starting point is 01:13:52 It was lower than that. I don't remember how many. I don't know if it was 60 or 70, but it was 100. I just think they put anything that I'd ever had anything to do with, they put my, they said it was a part of this. But the point is, is that. Now, how much money are you making at this point? I would say.
Starting point is 01:14:06 Off of these fake sales and flips and. Right. So each person that I made would buy five, sometimes, six houses. Yeah. For $50,000, record the value at $200, $220, $250, and then get like an 80% loan on the house. Okay. So let's say maybe 90%.
Starting point is 01:14:27 Let's say they end up getting $180,000 a loan or $170,000. I bought the house for $50. I might have put $10,000 in it. So I'm making $100,000. Each one of these people are worth between $5,000 and $600,000. Okay. So I'm refinancing the house. Because as soon as I buy the house, it looks like my, so let's say one of the guys' names is James Red.
Starting point is 01:14:49 James Red buys a house for $50,000. We record the value at $200,000. We then mow the yard, trim the trees, clean up the outside, have it painted. It looks good from the outside. I then get a fake appra—I get a real appraisal. Sure. But the appraiser comes in and he says, look, it's gutted inside. It needs $50,000 worth of work on the inside.
Starting point is 01:15:11 I then retype the appraisal out. I get the appraisal software and then redo the appraisal saying it's in perfect condition. And I send that to the lender. The lender now thinks, now a lot of the times I would just get the appraiser to do it because I knew the appraiser. I told him I was going to renovate it and he'd say, okay, I believe you. You give him an extra couple hundred bucks and he does it. Wow. And so all these, so I mean, that makes them an accomplice.
Starting point is 01:15:35 Yes. Yeah, okay. Are you like afraid of getting caught at this point? that's a shitload of loose threads. I got caught a bunch. Yeah. And I would just, I would just convince the lender to let me give them the money back. Oh, wow. Just let me give you the money back. Like I owe you $150,000 and I just let me cut you the check. And they would go, oh, we're going to call the FBI. And I was like, yeah, but you don't seem to understand. You think that your $150,000 loan is attached to a
Starting point is 01:16:06 $200,000 piece of property. And they go, yep, that's right. And I go, no, no, no. It's a attached to a property that's worth about $50,000. So they want their money back. Right. And then I'd say, so you're about to lose a minimum of $100,000, maybe more. Jesus. So let me just cut you the money back. Like, what's the problem, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:26 I'd cut the money back. And here's the thing. Everybody always says, well, why wouldn't they get the money back and they call the FBI? I agree. Because guess what? They never did. Yeah. Not one time did anybody ever call the FBI.
Starting point is 01:16:40 Did they get in trouble for that? or just no the FBI's like nah never mind they wrote the money there's no there's no back then i don't know what it is now but you can't force me to report a crime well they do like with crypto stuff especially when when a big house uh trading house goes under they'll do clawbacks for anybody that withdrew like within i sell it happened with celsius they they went under and it was like two billion dollars that got withdrawn within the last 90 days before they went bankrupt and they made everybody pay it back if it was over a certain amount. Right, I understand, but that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, so, that's, that's, so, that's, so, how did the, um, how did the fbii end up getting involved? Um, so I did, um, so I did, after I'd
Starting point is 01:17:37 stolen like 11.5 million, I think. And did you have, like, did you have a history of, uh, like this cold calculating, uh, gangster type fraud before this? Because it seems like you went from like normal,
Starting point is 01:17:51 I don't know, like normal. I'm not a gangster. I mean, if you go to a bank and say, uh, don't report me to the FBI or else, you know,
Starting point is 01:17:59 these, these deals, this is a deal you can't refuse. There's an offer they can't refuse. This is like gangster shit to me that you're describing. They can call. They can call. They can call.
Starting point is 01:18:07 They could call. I'm not, it's not like I'm strong arming. I'm just like, listen, you know, what are we doing? Let me just give them money back. You know, golly gee whiz. It sounds like we just was, you know, it sounds like a financial error. Yeah. I feel real bad about it.
Starting point is 01:18:24 It's cold-blooded, though. Have you always, like, did you have a background of this? You know what I'm saying. No, normal people couldn't get away with this. They would be like, this is, I feel sick constantly. There's no way I can get away with this, right? No. No, I handle stress very well.
Starting point is 01:18:40 Yeah. You know, I'm very, I can, I can compartmentalize pretty much anything. Okay. You know, so, like, you know, I probably, you know, when I was single, I, I would have dated Casey Anthony. I mean, she seemed like like she'd be a lot of fun. We're not having kids. Wait, you're the girl that killed her, who did she kill? Husband or kid?
Starting point is 01:19:02 Her daughter. But I'm saying, yeah, I'm saying, you know, like, I'm, I'm, I'm, you know, I could have lunch with Stalin and, and, uh, Hitler. I mean, you know, they probably have some great stories. They're probably interesting guys. I mean, you know, I'm not, you know, the same thing. You know, Hitler was probably all messed up and he'd just start looping telling the same story over and over again.
Starting point is 01:19:21 He probably would, you know, maybe, who knows, you know? Probably wouldn't be fun. So, but, you know, it's like I'm not, you know, I'm not a judgey person. Um, anyway, so what ended up happening was eventually a, I was doing this, with other people, right? There are people helping me. Yeah. So one of my buddies who's pulling the same scam I'm pulling. Oh, Jesus. It is in Orlando. I'm in Tampa, Florida. He's in Orlando. He gets arrested in a bank. Yeah. So he gets arrested and I get him out on bond and he very quickly starts working with the FBI. I'm working with them. Sorry, he works with the local task force. Right.
Starting point is 01:20:02 They start investigating me and then one day I'm at work three or four months later. and a buddy of mine who's a sheriff's deputy who I done probably a million, maybe two million dollars with fraudulent mortgages for it. He comes in the bank, I'm the bank, sorry, he comes in my office and in his sheriff's outfit, the deputy outfit. And he walks in, I'm like, hey, what's going on? He's like, can I talk to you? I'm like, yeah, what's up?
Starting point is 01:20:31 And he goes, listen, man, because I used to date a woman that was on the Tampa police. department. Okay. You did? Oh, he did? He did. He did. Yeah, okay. And I said, okay. And he said, she came to my house today and she told me she was recently on a task force that was just handed over to the FBI. I'm like, okay. He goes, yeah, it's on a mortgage fraud. I'm like, oh, okay. And he said, it's on you. And he said, and I'm already on probation. I'm on federal probation at that moment. So I'm like, okay, he is, they're going to come arrest you. He is, do you know somebody got arrested in Orlando? And I'm like, yeah, my buddy Travis. And he goes, okay, well, he said, he's been cooperating with the task force and they're going to come arrest you. Yeah. I was like,
Starting point is 01:21:20 oh, shit. So I, I take off. I take off on the run. I immediately, wait, what was that? What did you, did you, did you, like, was it a panic? Like, did you pack a, what did you pack to go on the run? What was your plan? It took me about one day. It took me a day. I only had a day. This is a Thursday at 4 o'clock. So I had one day to get out as much money as I could.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Give on, we probably had a million or so in the bank. Not to mention we had about 100 parcels of land. So I'm buying vacant lots. I'm building new houses. So the money's coming in as soon as it's going out. We probably had a million dollars I could have gotten if I had a couple weeks. Yeah. So in one day I was able to get out about 80,000.
Starting point is 01:21:59 It's like a rest of development, you know, like the fake developer and stuff. Have you ever seen that show? Arrested Developments? Yes. Yeah. Yes. Like, what was the name of that housing development? Sudden Acres?
Starting point is 01:22:08 I think it reminds me of that. So I have about one day to get out. I get out about 80 grand in cash. And I take off. Sorry, I take off with my, actually with the chick I was dating at the time. Does she know how much bad stuff you're up to? Or does she's just whatever, the money's good, whatever?
Starting point is 01:22:30 Absolutely. No. Yeah. You know, but I don't know what her, I don't know what the deal was. Anyway, you know, we took off and we went to Atlanta, Georgia, and I went, and we rented a house in Alpharetta, Georgia, which is just outside of Atlanta. We rented a house from a guy named Michael Shanahan, and I created a fake ID for Michael Shanahan, and I went downtown, and I went downtown, and I satisfied. the loan, there were two loans, I think, on his house. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:07 So I create what's called the, so let's say your house right now. Let's say you have a house worth half a million dollars. You have a mortgage on it for, let's say, half a million dollars. When you pay off that mortgage, the way that public records knows it was paid off is that the bank creates a fake, I mean, the bank creates a satisfaction of mortgage. It's a one-page document notarized by somebody at the bank saying that the mortgage is paid off. Yeah. It's a little more complicated than that. but not much more.
Starting point is 01:23:33 And it's filed with the county. And then the mortgage you have on your house, you can still see it, but it says it's been paid off. Right. Okay. But now you own your house free and clear. Right.
Starting point is 01:23:45 So I create two satisfaction of mortgages for Michael Shanahan's house from Bank of America. I file both of them, and those mortgages on his house disappear. I'm now living in a house as Michael Shanahan. And that's completely paid off. it's worth a couple hundred thousand dollars yeah i then call i call three hard money lenders and i borrow a hundred and fifty thousand dollars from each hard money lender at the same time okay why is that well because i i'm trying to borrow four hundred and something thousand dollars okay okay and i
Starting point is 01:24:19 can't borrow 400 000 on a 200 thousand dollar house but if i go to three lenders at the same time and close each one of those loans at three different title companies i can borrow the money okay And that's what I do. I go to three different title companies. I get all the money. I get $400,000 because there's a bunch of fees and bullshit. And then I put that money, I open up a bunch of bank accounts. I put that money into a bunch of bank accounts and I pull the money out in cash and then I take off.
Starting point is 01:24:46 So at this point, I'm, I realize that I can't use these fake IDs that I'm making because I'm literally making the IDs. And if I get pulled over, that's not going to cut mustard. So what I decide to do is I have to start getting drivers. license is in people's names like real people okay like your fake like your kids or real actual people that exist no real people so what i do is i start i decide the who out there like you know the fucking homeless that okay all right yeah so exactly i start i start surveying the homeless and once i get the homeless people's information and that was pretty easy i just made a statistical survey form got got myself a little clipboard.
Starting point is 01:25:32 I made a little badge. Instead, I was a statistical surveyor. And I went out and I offered $20 for a survey. And these guys would give me their name, data birth, social security number. Mothers made name what high school they went to, whether they were in the military, are they receiving Social Security disability,
Starting point is 01:25:49 social security, or any type of. That's diabolical, man. How did you think of that? Like, how did you, what's the moment in the movie where this is your stroke of genius? You're like, we got to use the homeless. to get their, like they actually exist, you know? So I first started by running ads in the newspaper for mortgages, so people would call in
Starting point is 01:26:07 and I would take an application on them. Yeah. Because I knew they'd give me everything I needed to steal their identity. So with the exception of one thing, which is the county you were born in and what's your mother's made name, but it was just an extra question I had asked them. I told for security purposes, I need these two, and they'd answer it. Right. But the problem is one of those guys that I actually got, did get an ID and this one guy
Starting point is 01:26:29 name. He had had a DUI. Okay. And so I remember thinking, I could be driving around on this guy's driver's license, and what if he gets another DUI? Yeah. What if I get arrested for driving on a suspended license or something? Right. Right. And I thought, I need some people's information that aren't using their
Starting point is 01:26:49 information. And my girl, the girl and I, we were talking about it at a stoplight. We just got off the interstate worth the, like, the stoplight. And she was like, who? She's like, mental patients or like people are arrested like people incarcerated i was like well what if they warrants and i looked over there was a guy standing there with a homeless work for food sign yeah i went like that guy and i remember she said because i i've never heard this but i mean i've heard it before but she says who the hobo i mean nobody says hobo no so i always remember a hobo and she says who the hobo the hobo is like kind of a charming character like they go they travel by train
Starting point is 01:27:29 They eat beans out of a can. Like, not, not, we'll work for food on the, or we'll work for meth on the side of the freeway. Yeah, anyway. So I actually got out and surveyed. I talked to that guy. I didn't survey him. We just asked some questions. I said, hey, man, can I ask you some questions?
Starting point is 01:27:44 Yeah. He goes, he goes, what's this about, bro? I'm doing, I'm in the middle of something here. He's, hold the side. You know, I'm at my job, bro. What are you doing? So I gave him, like, 20 bucks. I said, hey, listen, man.
Starting point is 01:27:56 I just started asking him questions. Like, I'm like, you know, how long have you been homeless? You know, do you think you'll be gainfully employed anytime soon? Do you have any felonies? Do you have any, you know, so I just started asking him questions, see if he was even a viable subject. And he was. Like, you know, he wasn't on probation. He didn't have a criminal record.
Starting point is 01:28:17 He'd been arrested a few times and done 20 days or 10 days or 30 days in jail. He's like, but they're always misdemeanors. And it's always for something like urinating in public or something like that is like. Being homeless. Right. And they're not ever placed on probation because he says, we're not going to show up for fucking probation. They just keep us in jail for 10 days and give you time served. I'm like, okay.
Starting point is 01:28:36 So anyway, I talked to him and I asked him if he had a driver's license. I kind of assumed he'd have like a DUI or something. He said, nah, it's just expired. I don't drive. Yeah. And I was like, okay. So I started thinking, okay, perfect. So that's when I made the surveys and started going out and surveying homeless guys.
Starting point is 01:28:53 Dude, that's crazy. That's so much. deeper and more complicated than I thought when I first saw the viral thing, you know? Oh, listen, I, look, I mean, I, not only did they got driver's licenses in these guys' names, because here's what I would do is I would go online. First, I'd run a criminal background check. Yeah. I'd order a, I'd order their birth certificates.
Starting point is 01:29:18 I'd order their, a copy of their social security card. I would order, I would order a copy of their, of their high school transfer. And these are all certified copies, by the way. Right. So I'm ordering a certified copy. I'd register to vote in their name. And then I'd just go into the local DMV. And this is, as long as they didn't have a driver's license in that state, sometimes
Starting point is 01:29:39 I'd have to go a state over. Okay. Because I don't want their photo to show up. Right. So I would go in and once I got all these documents, I'd go in, I'd say, I just moved to the area, you know, a few months ago, and I lost my license. And they go, okay. Where have you had a license?
Starting point is 01:29:54 And I'd say, oh, I've had a license in South Carolina. And they'd go, okay, and we're in North Carolina. And that's all they need to. And sometimes I'd even order a copy of their transcripts. Some of these guys. From high school? Like, from school? From high school, but also from their driver's license.
Starting point is 01:30:09 Oh, yeah. Okay. Okay. So, like, I know where they're driving record. So I could go in. So I know what's going to come up. You know, so I'd walk in there. And look, sometimes they'd owe $600 or $500.
Starting point is 01:30:22 So I'd have to pay that off. Are people still doing this? Like, is this something they can even shut down? No, you couldn't shut this down. No. I get driver. How old are you? 45.
Starting point is 01:30:39 I don't know if I could pass for, I could probably pass for 45. I think you could. I drink a lot, so, I mean, I look pretty weathered. Well, then we'd be perfect. Once I get the driver's license, I would then apply for a passport. and I get a passport in their name. Oh my God. This is blowing my mind
Starting point is 01:30:59 just because it's like it's always seemed like identity is so important. Like everyone's very protective of their identity and everyone is tracked when they do anything. But now you're telling me that you're just like kind of willy-nilly spawning a new identity on a basically an inexhaustible resource, which is the homeless.
Starting point is 01:31:18 You know, there's always new homeless. Yeah, listen, I have been, into Greece, Italy, Croatia, Bermuda, Jamaica, and Mexico using fake passports. Was just for fun? Or that was because you didn't want to get caught by the FBI? No, bro, I'm traveling. I'm just, I've got money. At this point, I got money.
Starting point is 01:31:43 So, listen, while I was on the run, I sold like $3.5 million. I stole? Defrauded, whatever you went out. Right. Right, by doing with a new endeavor or with new stuff? No, no, it's the same thing. I'm just buying houses, satisfying the loans, and refinancing the houses. I'd buy a house for $250,000, borrow five or six mortgages on it,
Starting point is 01:32:06 allow out a million dollars and then take off. Does that shut down, or they still allow that? No, no, you can still do this. You could still do that. Wow. Listen, I work for a company right now. I'm a spokesman for a company right now that, protects people from having their home stolen from doing exactly what I did from having their
Starting point is 01:32:26 home stolen that's what they call it they call it a title theft right title theft okay but you know I mean you still you can't steal your house I mean you steal the title to your house your house is still there so you so you're you're traveling the world and you're also doing fraud and you're you're making like three million dollars you got to be traveling like large are you well I mean it's not a yeah it's not a full-time job I mean you know you have to do something right? Like we're doing rock climbing and, and I'm still, and I'm still, keep in mind, I'm still flipping houses. I'm still buying old houses and fixing them up. So you're doing normal stuff too? Yeah, just stuff I like to do. Like, you know, if you had nothing to do, people think,
Starting point is 01:33:05 oh, I travel, my, that gets old. Yeah. You got to do something. Like, I'm, I'm kind of a busy body. Like, I'm always kind of doing something, right? Like, I'm painting murals or I'm, or I'm writing books or I'm rehabbing houses. Like, I'm doing something. Now, when you get, when you're in jail and you're in your prison and you're getting the Freedom of Information Act requests, are they tracking you during this time? Does the FBI know where you are during this time? Are they tracking you overseas? No. No, they have no idea where I am. They don't know until it takes about three years before they, before one day they get a tip. Wow. Okay. From the chick I was dating at the time Oh, okay. I confided in a friend of hers and she turned me in. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:33:50 Wow. Why? Yeah. Just for a reward, they gave it like 10 grand. Oh. That's brutal. That's right. He did the right thing. Yeah, yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:34:05 You know, I ended up, I went to prison. And then, yeah, while I was in prison, that's when. So I'll tell you the kinds of things that I, like, found out. Wait, did they, did they, how did they arrest you? Did they kick your door down? Was it sudden? Or did they, you know? No, I had had like a robbery at my house.
Starting point is 01:34:25 Okay. And the police, and I had it on video. And so the police called me up and said, hey, we'd like to send somebody over to your house to get the video. Are you there? And I said, could you meet us there? I said, no problem. Of course, the Secret Service was there. So I show up and I get out of my car and next thing I know, all these Suburbanes pull up,
Starting point is 01:34:46 locking up their brakes and these guys jump out, screaming, get on the ground, get on the ground. And I was number one on the Secret Service. Keep mind on number one on the Secret Service's most wanted list. I'm on the FBI's most wanted list. I'm on the U.S. Marshall's most wanted list. And at this point, they're probably... Dude, and you're just rock climbing. Like, I'm on the number one on the most water list,
Starting point is 01:35:06 and I'm rock climbing in Greece and flipping houses. Yeah. And I'm... What else? 40... Let's see. There had been about 40 articles on me. I had been in a Fortune magazine.
Starting point is 01:35:18 I'd been in Bloomberg business week had done two articles. Yeah. So there's all these, you know, like this was like a big deal. And Dateline was about to come out with a one hour special on me. Sure. It's a big time. So I, they lock up and keep in mind to it on the run. Like I've had plastic surgery.
Starting point is 01:35:36 I had a, I had a nose job. I had my teeth done. I had a mini facelift. I had liposuction. Did I say no shop? To look different or because you wanted like new teeth? Like is it all? No, but I mean,
Starting point is 01:35:48 well I mean everybody needs improvement and then I had two hair transplants yeah but I don't know if you could see me like I have a great head of hair for being 50 something years old I'm 56 years old yeah you do man you look great so did you ever think of going in blackface as a disguise no no I did not never once occurred to me but I will make sure to mention that next time I said you know I stopped just shy at black. Yeah. I didn't know if I could pull it off though. So then you could talk, you know, get a whole boy, get a whole character going, right? Yeah. Well, I mean, I think the moment you got me naked, you realize, oh, he's a white guy. So, um, were they, were they pissed at you? Was the Secret Service? Like, were they throwing you around? Because they've been looking you, they've been
Starting point is 01:36:36 looking for you for some time now, right? No, no. The Super Service was very professional. Yeah. They were very professional. The most unprofessional. people I dealt with were the, uh, probably the FBI. Oh, okay. Yeah, they, they were more like street cops, you know, more thuggish. Yeah. But the Secret Service was very professional. Okay.
Starting point is 01:36:57 So what, what, anyway, I go to prison, you know, I'm guilty. I plead guilty and keep my, by the time I plead guilty, like, it's, it's late, I'm sentenced, it's, it's late 2007. And people always say the 2008 financial crisis. Well, that's when TARP was passed. Yeah. But in 2007 is really when it started. Yeah, I remember.
Starting point is 01:37:21 So by the time I'm in front of a judge, every newspaper for the last six months has been nothing about mortgage fraud. You mean, has been only mortgage fraud or not? What? When you get there has been, you mean, they've been talking about mortgage fraud all the time? I'm saying by the time I'm in front of the judge at the end of 2007. Yeah. For the last six months in the newspaper, they've been covering mortgage fraud, the mortgage meltdown.
Starting point is 01:37:51 So they hate you. They're like, you're- Right, they hate me. Oh, wow. Yeah. Anyway, I get sentenced. I mean, ultimately, I end up doing like 13 years. But I end up going to prison, right? So I was sentenced to much more than I was sentenced to 26 years.
Starting point is 01:38:08 Oh, my God. And you sold bank money. Right? Did you steal people's money too exactly? Or was it all bank money? No, it was all bank money. Well, no, that's not true. So some of the people that I, if I, like the guy, remember I told you, I rented his house. Yeah. Like he hired an attorney to fix what I did and it cost him $6,000. Okay. Yeah. So if you add up all of my victims, it's four victims and the total of what I owe all of them is roughly $30,000.
Starting point is 01:38:39 So, you know, and so you have to look at, here's the thing. It's like one of these guys is a CPA. He owns a CPA firm. One of them is a lender. He's a private, a hard money lender. One was a doctor. Who's the other guy? That's not good.
Starting point is 01:39:01 That's a little bad. That's a little bad guy. The other guy's like a lawyer. So we're talking about, you know, I'm not brokenhearted. So what ultimately I so anyway, I go to prison and that's when I went to prison, that's when I started doing the Freedom of Information Act. Yeah. And the kind of things I was finding out was I'll give you an example. When I was on the run, I'd stolen a guy's identity.
Starting point is 01:39:28 His name was Gary Sullivan. And I borrowed one, I bought a couple houses in his name and I borrowed $1.3 million in his name. and I deposited that money into multiple bank accounts, and I was pulling the money. I probably had whatever, eight or ten bank accounts, and I'm pulling that money out in cash. Well, one day I get,
Starting point is 01:39:49 I'm in there trying to get out like nothing, like $4,000. Like, I'm just at the counter. Yeah. And keep on, I have an ID in his name in South Carolina. Like, I have an ID. I have social security card.
Starting point is 01:40:00 I have multiple credit cards, everything. So two deputies walk up behind me and grab me and put me in handcuffs. and they take me into a room and they sit me down and they say we were told to hold you until an investigator gets here and I'm like, well, what's this about? They're like, well, Mr. Sullivan, we don't really know.
Starting point is 01:40:24 So I'm like, oh, they're calling me Mr. Sullivan. There's a good sign. So I'm like, okay. And they're like, yeah, we don't really know. We were just told to detain you until the investigator gets there. So the investigator shows up. And he says, yeah, listen, you know, there was a bank in that area. That was South Carolina.
Starting point is 01:40:41 It was a Wachovia. I don't know if you ever. Yeah, Wachovia. Okay. So they were like, yeah, Wachovia says, so the guy walks in, he says, Wachovia says that you're running like a scam or something. You borrowed three mortgages on a piece of property. And I remember, I looked at him and I go, is that illegal?
Starting point is 01:41:01 And he goes, and the cop goes, you know, I don't know. And I remember thinking right then, I'm walking out of here. I'm walking out of here. Watch this. So he gets the head of Wachovia's fraud department on the phone. And by the way, I had six mortgages on that property. Not three. So I know they only know three.
Starting point is 01:41:24 I wasn't aware you couldn't do that. Yeah. And that's exactly what I say. I sit there and I go, listen, I came to Wachovia, I got a mortgage. The mortgage broker here said she could get me a second mortgage. That mortgage broker said she could get me a heat. lock, home equity line of credit. I'm borrowing this money because I need to borrow about half a million dollars because I'm flipping several pieces of property. And the cop is like, oh, that's right,
Starting point is 01:41:44 you own another piece of property. Yeah, makes sense. He had pulled up the property and he knew I owned another property. So he's like, yeah, that's right. You just bought it another property. Right, we're putting out on a roof, an addition and a pool. I said, I'm about to close on another one. I go, so I don't know what's going on here. So I don't know what these guys are telling you. I said, but what I did was perfectly the guy said, they have a problem. I think they have a problem the bank. It sounds to me like maybe the bank, maybe their employees did something fraudulent or something, but I didn't. Dude, where do you dip, like, where do you, what is, where do you dip down to come up with
Starting point is 01:42:18 this bullshit on the spot like this? You know, like what you, I mean, you say, is it just denial? Like, you say on your side, I'm a con man. Like, where do you, how? How do you do it? Teach us how to, you're, you're, I don't know. What's the secret? I mean, it just came to, because that makes sense, right? Like, it kind of like, I didn't, I didn't. do anything and then you want to dip so you're one you're you're not assuming responsibility i certainly didn't do and then it's like hey maybe they did it like who else could it's either right it's on that this is on them yeah okay and i end up saying listen what makes more sense that i that some loan officers you know did something to make a a a loan fee or something
Starting point is 01:42:59 a commission or some guy that works for a labor company and I had a business card on me, boom, labor on demand, had my name, site manager, everything. I said, or that I, the guy who worked for a labor company. Yeah. Convinced three banks to lend him half a million dollars. Like, come on, bro, I wouldn't know how to do this if I tried. And the guy is literally telling the guy from Wakovia, and he's not on speaker. He's on regular phone.
Starting point is 01:43:25 He's like, yeah, I don't think that this guy, I don't think he has anything to do with it. I think you have a problem at the bank. Yeah. And they're screaming. These guys screaming at him. That's not true. And here's where he's really fucked up. He really fucks up when he says, am I allowed to cuss?
Starting point is 01:43:41 Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, sorry. He really messed up when he says, the Wakobia guy goes, look at his ID. Now keep in mind, I have a real ID issued by the state of South Carolina in the name Gary Sullivan. He says, look at his ID. It's a fake ID. It starts with zero, zero, zero.
Starting point is 01:44:03 This guy's from California. The fuck does he know what an ID looks like in South Carolina? Cops just love being told how to do their job, too. They fucking love it. And here's what the cop says. He goes, no, no, this is Gary Sullivan. He said, our IDs do start with zero, zero, zero. I ran, plus I ran him through NCIC.
Starting point is 01:44:25 It's him. and and I look at, I lean over to the cop and I go, oh, now I'm not Gary Sullivan. I go, what are we doing? This fucking guy. California, am I right? Oh, listen, the cop, because the cop is like, he's like, I know Gary. I know. I know.
Starting point is 01:44:46 So he ends up hanging up with the guy. He tells the guy from Wakobia, look, we don't have a formal complaint. I need to talk to our district attorney. We don't really need to know what to charge this guy with. You haven't actually formally made a complaint yet. Let me talk to the district journey. I'll get back with you. Hangs up the phone and says,
Starting point is 01:45:01 Gary, I'm going to need you to follow me back to the police station. He lets me drive my car back to the police station, fill out a police report, and leave the police station. Oh, man. I went to two more. Wait,
Starting point is 01:45:13 are you watching, like, when movies, like, catch me if you can come out? Did that come out while you were doing all this stuff? Are you watching that movie and going like, this idiot, this is how he got caught, or this is, I'm never going to get caught like this. Like, were you thinking after you have a run in like that? Are you like, all right, I got to figure out how to stop doing this or anything like that?
Starting point is 01:45:31 Or you just, fuck it. I'm in until the end. No, I mean, I'm wrong. I'm wanted by, I'm wanted. I mean, I'm, I'm, what am I going to do? I don't know. Like, leave the country and like set up permanently and somewhere? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:45:45 Did they never cross your mind? Look, like, like, what? Go to go to, if I show up with a couple million dollars in, in Mexico, like, Like the cops will take it from you. That's true. You didn't even worry about the criminals. Yeah, that's true. It's not like, like, and keep mind, where can I really go?
Starting point is 01:46:04 Ultimately, I was planning on going to Australia because Australia at the time, if you showed up to Australia with like $100,000 at a business plan, they would allow you to become what's called a permanent resident alien. And you were allowed to open a business, but not work or vote. Okay. But you could open property. I mean, you could own property. So I kind of thought, hey, I could show up there with two or three million. And the other thing, what was great was, unless you were applying for citizenship, they didn't require a background check through Australia. If you're a permanent resident alien, you showed up with your police report.
Starting point is 01:46:45 Yeah. No fingerprint card. So all I had to do was bring them a printout of a police. I'm sorry, of my criminal record. Dude, you just, you know so much. It's crazy. Listening to you, listening to you detail,
Starting point is 01:47:00 like all these, all these, um, exploits. Yeah, loopholes. Right. It's really wild.
Starting point is 01:47:07 Well, I was thinking, hey, like I could go to Australia and become a, and keep mind too, I'm not going as Matt Cox. I have a passport in the name of a guy named, I think his name was Walter Holcomb.
Starting point is 01:47:16 So I would be going there as Walter Holcomb, with Walter Holcomb's criminal record, which was nothings. It was some misdemeanial. Yeah. For like being intoxicated in public. Like it was nothing. And they were, they would, and I keep mind, you have to call.
Starting point is 01:47:30 Like, we called like the, the Australian embassy. We called all these places to find out. So that's, towards the end, I'm pulling out money because I know dateline is coming out. Okay. So we know date line's about to come out. So I figure, fuck it. I'll go to Australia. And so I'm pulling out money.
Starting point is 01:47:47 We're going to go to Australia. And that's when I get caught and go to prison. Ah, okay. But wait. wait a second here's where i was going to tell you is your girlfriend stay with you and you go to prison see oh no no no i think i got a letter oh that's nice so um here here's what i was going to mention was remember i told you i got caught in south carolina but they let me go yeah i i then was in north carolina because i was living in charlotte at a time you know i'm bouncing around right
Starting point is 01:48:18 Like I go from Atlanta to South Carolina to Charlotte, South Carolina to Nashville. Well, when I'm still in Charlotte, so I go straight to Charlotte, but I know they're going to track me back there. I was actually in a Starbucks getting a coffee, and I see two people from my apartment complex. Okay. And team mind, I'm about to leave town. I'm leaving town. Wow. So I'm just getting a coffee for the road.
Starting point is 01:48:47 And they start Have this frantic conversation where one of them leaves the The Starbucks And I wait and I get my coffee And he gets his coffee first and stands there And then I get my coffee. He's got like a tray of coffees. He follows me out.
Starting point is 01:49:01 I get in my car. I put my coffee down. I start the car. I put on my seatbelt. I'm looking through the, this is back when they had the CDs or DVDs. Yeah. Yeah, CDs.
Starting point is 01:49:11 So I'm kind of flipping through the CDs trying to find a good, you know, something really lists. Like I'm not in a hurry. This guy's standing there staring at me on the sidewalk. And I'm thinking, you know what I was thinking about it was? I hadn't paid my rent yet because I knew I was leaving. So I'm not going to pay a couple thousand dollars in rent when I'm leaving.
Starting point is 01:49:30 So this is like the fourth. So I'm thinking, did they just put like a late notice on my door? Like, why is this guy? And so all of a sudden, I'm basically ready to go, right? I'm leaving. I'm about to get on the road and just start and head towards Nashville. all of a sudden this guy starts screaming. He's right here, he's right here.
Starting point is 01:49:52 And I look in the rear view mirror. There's two people running towards the back of my car. And I, in like suits, right? And I just punch it. So at that time, I remember thinking that's got to be like the FBI or the Secret Service. Yeah. And what's your plan with the punch it?
Starting point is 01:50:10 Are you going to drive to Mexico? Like, what is your, are you going to Grand Theft Auto? I drove, I'll be honest with you. When I punched it, I drove about half a mile to a mile down the road to a homeless shelter, saw three white guys in the parking lot, and I pulled over and surveyed them. You're going to make a new identity. Of course, I got it to get new. I know they're looking for the car.
Starting point is 01:50:32 They were just chasing the car. They got the plate. They were just at my apartment complex. So I know they followed from where I was at the police station. Somehow or another, they tracked back. The car I was driving was a car that was registered in North Carolina, and the address was where I was living. So that's why I was leaving town. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:50 I just didn't know they were going to get there that quick. Yeah. Okay. This is only a few days. This is maybe five days later, six days late. Well, maybe four or five days later. So I take off. That's why I take off.
Starting point is 01:51:01 I'm still going to, but I got to hit the homeless shelter. I got to go recharge and get a new identity. Get a new identity. Got to get me some new identities. I survey three guys. I get their identities. I go to Nashville. I immediately, I'm in Nashville for, I'll bet you, I was completely reestablished
Starting point is 01:51:16 in Nashville. within, I want to say, four days, five days. Oh, wow, okay. Like, this is how quickly. New Social Security, new driver's license, everything. Everything. Okay. So, well, so what I did was I got to, I stayed one night in a hotel.
Starting point is 01:51:38 I then drove and got an apartment the next day in the name of, hold on, Joseph Carter, Jr. I mean, your memory is like. like insane too the way that you remember all these fake IDs that you were getting i mean it's a it's like a big deal to you but it's still it's incredible your recollection is just amazing i usually have i do happen for this i mean in this case i yeah i happen have a good i typically feel like i have a horrible a memory but yeah so joseph carter i got i rent an apartment i then drive my car back to nashville well keep mind as soon as i get the where as soon as i get the apartment i order these guys um certificates and I pay, usually you could pay to get it expedited.
Starting point is 01:52:23 So I like pay to get it expedited. Dude, I want to get some homeless people's identities. I just want to go do this now. I know you're not supposed to, but I just want to try it, you know? And not do anything with it, but I want to try it. Well, so by the time I get back, by the time I drop the car back off in Nashville, I'm sorry, back in Charlotte and get back to Nashville, within a day or so, everything's arriving around five days.
Starting point is 01:52:47 let's say six days. I then take those documents. I go straight to the DMV and I get a driver's license. Okay. I now have an apartment with electric water, furniture,
Starting point is 01:52:57 um, a table and, um, uh, and a new driver's license. And the same day I get the driver's license, I go and get a new vehicle. With no credit,
Starting point is 01:53:09 by the way, because at that time, nations, uh, was it nations or car max, one of those two. I don't know which one, what it was,
Starting point is 01:53:16 but one of those, I don't even know, if they're both around anymore. But the point is, is I went into there and they had a program. They're like, well, if you've been on your job for more than two years, which a year-to-date pays them, and then I also, of course, I have my bank statements, and then I can prove that I've been paying my rent. So I walk in and they said, if you put down, you can have no credit, but if you put down 20% will finance you. And somebody has to verify that you're employed. Of course, they call my employment 20 minutes later, and I answer the phone and verify my employment. And then boom, the loan goes.
Starting point is 01:53:47 through and I drive out of there in like a it was a pathfinder I think it was a pathfinder no wait was an exterra I think it was a Nissan Xtera and then do you go get more plastic surgery now like do you dye your hair or any of the stuff that you see in movies you change sunglasses what do you do no I didn't I didn't really do anything I just because that no nobody knows I'm in Nashville right they didn't find the car in Nashville they found the car in Charlotte and long term parking so my I'm a band I'm buying cars and when I leave I typically would leave it at the police station. Just drive the fucking vehicle and leave it at a police station.
Starting point is 01:54:23 Why? You know, huh? Why at the police station? Why there? I figure they'll either find it right away or they won't be looking for it there at all. So I, you know, so they're not going to, they don't find anything in Nashville. They don't know I'm in Nashville for another year and a half until, um, until this chick calls, uh, the secret service and gets me, has me arrested. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 01:54:44 When I was locked up and I started researching my book. I end up getting the Freedom of Information Act, and I get the document about when they almost caught me in the sub-office. Yeah. When I ordered this stuff from the FBI, nothing. Ordered this stuff from the Secret Service, nothing. I ordered this stuff from the U.S. Marshals. It was two U.S. Marshals almost caught me in Nashville.
Starting point is 01:55:10 That's who it was chasing me. So here's what happened. Two U.S. Marshals had just interviewed the people from, my apartment complex, they went across the street to get coffee, saw me, and the woman comes running back in and she goes, he's right across the street at the Starbucks. They then run over the Starbucks. I'm already in my vehicle and I take off and I leave him standing in the street. Wow. So here's another thing I found out when I was doing the Freedom of Information Act, which, you know,
Starting point is 01:55:38 these are things you're finding out that I didn't even know. Yeah. So my name is Matthew Cox. I have a degree in fine arts from USF. I'm an artist. Amazing. Right. Okay. So here's what's interesting. When I was on the run, I went to New Orleans on vacation with the chick I'm with, right? We stayed there a week.
Starting point is 01:55:58 We stayed on Royal Street, which is right next. It's Bourbon Street. I mean, it's right downtown. I mean, it's right there in the French Quarter. Yeah. So we're, you know, a nice hotel. We're staying there. And no big deal.
Starting point is 01:56:15 Uneventful. We stay for a week. We see some ghost tours. We go on the tours. We take the trolley. We do all the bullshit you're supposed to do. We drive back to Charlotte, which I think we were staying at the time. I later find out that the U.S.
Starting point is 01:56:29 Sorry, the, okay, the U.S. marshals knew that there was a Matthew Cox in New Orleans and they fly for, I think it was from like Baton Rouge. They have two guys, two marshals from Baton Rouge, go to New Orleans to check out this. guy Matthew Cox. There is an artist by the name of Matthew Cox, which was having, he was having a showing, a gallery showing on Bourbon Street at a gallery at a at a at a gallery on Burbin Street at the same time I was there. They go there, they show the owner of the establishment my photo and he says no, he says, I've known Matt Cox for 10 years. That's not the same person. but we were both there at the same time. Like those are things like, I didn't know that,
Starting point is 01:57:21 but it was like, wow, all right, what a coincidence. That would be creepy, man, going through all these reports, like, of tracking you for years and piecing together their side of it. Well, you know, it's funny is when you're talking to, now when I'm talking to my buddies or something, or I'm talking to some, I'm in prison. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:41 And I'm talking to somebody on the phone. He's like, yeah, bro, like, you know, it's funny, like, they never even talk to me. Nobody even came by. And I'm thinking, well, I mean, I have 14 pages of an interview that you did. I don't say that. So they're telling you that they never talked to the FBI, but you have a freedom of information of an interview they did.
Starting point is 01:58:02 Oh, man. And I have people like, oh, I would say something. Why am I going to say something, bro? Why would I say something? You know what I mean? I mean, they're probably afraid that you're going to somehow get a new body and get out of prison and come like take their life for something. This is no, listen, listen, these guys like I, to this day, I've gone and I've had, I've had dinner with with guys that I knew, you know, the guy that started the task force that led to them arresting me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:58:36 His name's Travis. I probably text them every other month. I've gone. I've had dinner with him twice. He lives probably five miles from me. Oh, this was like one of my best friends growing up. Do other prisoners do the freedom of information thing to get like their surveillance and stuff to you?
Starting point is 01:58:54 Because that's got to be so interesting for... I mean, keep in mind, most of these guys get the prison. They're playing handball. Yeah. They're playing softball. Like they're not, they're not, these are not intellectual people. They're not curious. I'm a very curious person.
Starting point is 01:59:09 They're not necessarily curious. Yeah. It's funny, I'm probably more curious than I am. knowledgeable. Like, I don't have to know every single thing about something to have my curiosity satisfied. But, for example, but I was researching, you know, my book and I wanted to make sure that everything was accurate, as accurate as I could be. Like, I don't remember the name of certain people, but you're hoping that you're going to get these documents. They're going to say the name of the person. And so, okay, great, I'd love to know the name of the officer that
Starting point is 01:59:42 came and questioned me. Yeah. You know, so it's, it's good for the, and it's good for like the dates. You're like, oh, I think it was April 2nd. You know, you don't remember, but if you get the reports, you know exactly when it was. I was shocked how many times I was just off. But while I was writing my book, I ended up meeting Ephraim Devereoli, and I wrote his book. And then I ended up writing a guy, another guy in there, his name was Doug Dodd.
Starting point is 02:00:12 and I wrote a book about him, and I got him in Rolling Stone magazine, and we ended up optioning Doug's life rights. What did Doug Dodd? What did he do? Oh, you know, it was, they were five clean-cut white kids that were on the wrestling team that were doctor shopping in Florida.
Starting point is 02:00:35 Okay. And so three of them, or four of them, got college scholarships. and they, yeah, four of them got college scholarships in different places, and Dodd didn't. He stayed in Florida and continued the operation, and he shipped pills to them. Oh, okay. Right. So it ended up being this.
Starting point is 02:00:56 So it was, you know, and there's all kinds of close calls and all these little things. And eventually they get caught and they all end up going to prison. And I've met, I've spoken with all of them. I've met four of them in person and spoke, but spoken with all five. And I, of course, I interviewed them and I wrote the book and we got them in Rolling Stone and we ended up optioning the, it never got made into a movie. It was optioned like three different times. I think it's been around now. But after that, I interviewed, I've interviewed multiple people. I've interviewed a lot of people like you probably know. There was a guy named Marcus Schrenker who in the middle of during the financial crisis, he was being investigated. And the Indiana security. agency rated his office. So the police raided his office, and he was a financial wealth manager, and he knew he was about to be indicted, right? So he's a pilot also. So he basically ran like a Ponzi. He stole several million dollars from a bunch of clients. So, and it's been, they've rated
Starting point is 02:02:01 his office. He's about to go down. So he takes his plane up, and he is flying his plane, and he calls in and says that he's hit turbulence. And he's like, my windshield is cracking. My windshield's cracking. Ah, it's imploded. I'm bleeding. I'm bleeding. And then he, that he touched the mic.
Starting point is 02:02:23 Fake plane crash? Yeah. No, he's in the air, though. Oh, okay. And then he jumped out of the plane with a parachute. Okay. Did that work? Well, the plane was supposed to go out over the Gulf.
Starting point is 02:02:35 Yeah. What he didn't realize that when he opened up the back door. Yeah. There was so much drag on the plane. The autopilot couldn't regain altitude so it burned off all of its fuel and it lands
Starting point is 02:02:47 a few miles shy of the Gulf. And so it ends up. And here's the thing. Remember he said that the windshield spider cracked and imploded? Yeah. So it went into a wooded area, ripped off the wings, the tail
Starting point is 02:03:01 that just shredded it. The one thing that was in perfect condition was the windshield. shield. So immediately they know, I think this guy might have faked his own death. Your guy's aptitude for like scamming under pressure is so impressed. It's just crazy. Like I know what I got to do. I got to fake my death in an airplane. That'll that'll fix this. Yeah, it was, listen, pretty good. It was pretty good up to the last minute. He gets caught like three, four days later at a K-O-A campground and he ends up going to prison.
Starting point is 02:03:32 That's where I met him. I wrote his story. I wrote, I've written just a, a, ton of guys. Really great stories. Like a lot of true crime stories. It sounds like it, man. I didn't know that Wardogs had a book attached to it. I love that movie. Wait a minute.
Starting point is 02:03:46 Devereoli has a memoir. There's another book for Wardogs. Oh, there is? Okay. Keep in mind. That book, they did not make the movie based on the book. That's what Devereoli sued Warner Brothers saying that's what they did. Right.
Starting point is 02:03:59 Okay. I'd rather read, you know, your version. Yeah, my version is a lot more. pick up on, you know? So what else? Yeah, so when I got out of prison, towards the end of my prison sentence, I was,
Starting point is 02:04:16 oh wow, we're over an hour. Dude, yeah, this is, I mean, it's up to you. I don't want to take up your whole day. No, no, I didn't know if you had a cutoff. No, I have a six-month-old in the other room, so I'm going to try to stay in this basement as long as possible.
Starting point is 02:04:35 Okay. Well, no restraints at all. Well, I can wrap it up kind of sure. So when I'm, towards the end, when I'm, you know, I'd written, I started writing synopsies of stories, like probably wrote like close to 24 of them. So I started like maybe 20, there may be 20 pages long instead of writing a whole book. I've written about seven true crime books. And what I decided was towards the end of my sentence, guys started telling me like when you get out, you got to start a true crime channel. Oh, yeah. True crime podcast.
Starting point is 02:05:07 And I didn't know what a podcast was because podcast didn't start. The word wasn't invented until 2009. Yeah. So YouTube had been out the year before I got arrested. I'd never been on YouTube. So I didn't, you know, there was no iTunes and all that. Like, I don't know why they didn't know what any of that was. So these guys are trying, these are new guys coming in trying to explain what a podcast is.
Starting point is 02:05:31 And I'm like, okay, it's like a radio show. Well, no, kind of, kind of, but it's taped. It's, you know, no, it, you know, and so when I get out of prison, I end up, I ended up had a friend that kind of got me in contact with a guy named Danny Jones, who has a podcast in Florida, in St. Petersburg, which is right next to Tampa. And I got on the phone with him and talked to him, and he was like, you know, he answered all my questions, like, how does you, how do you do a podcast? and so I end up going on his podcast right out of the halfway house.
Starting point is 02:06:09 So, excuse me, so right out of the halfway house, probably within a month or two, I do his show. And it did really well, right? Like it got like two over to the- Yeah, this is fascinating, man.
Starting point is 02:06:23 I mean, people love true crime, but this is like the way you talk about, I mean, just the visual of you running from the marshals and your first instinct is to find homeless and steal their identity is just so, I don't know, it's so funny because homeless are just everywhere.
Starting point is 02:06:43 Like now I'm never going to look at homeless the same now. Well, you have to, you have to think I was looking for homeless guys that were in their early to mid-30s and that were white. Even better. Like the details make it so much funnier. Well, it's more challenging. So it's not like I'm running, they're not everywhere. Trust me, if you're looking for that specific demographic, it's like, fuck, I've been out here an hour.
Starting point is 02:07:09 What's going on? That guy's 50 years old. White Homer said. Yeah. But then you find one. And it's so funny because I'd be interviewing. Jackpot. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:07:19 Yeah. I'd be like, oh, this guy's perfect. He's perfect. Listen, some of these guys, I remember this one, that guy, Gary Sullivan, he had like 20,000 in medical collections I paid off. Oh, yeah. Okay. I'm fixing their credit. I'll get their license better.
Starting point is 02:07:35 They can reintegrate into society. They just don't know. When, you don't want them to. You don't want them pulling like car loans in another state, right? Well, here's the thing. One of the questions I asked, which was always kind of sad, was I would, one of the questions I'd ask is I'd say, what are the chance, you know, do you believe that you'll be gainfully employed in the next 24 months or 12 months? And they would say, listen, I never had one guy say yes. One of them, I listen, I remember this one guy looked around to where his campsite was, like in the woods, because he told me he lived in the woods.
Starting point is 02:08:09 He looked over the woods and then he kind of looked around and he goes, no, this is it for me. And I remember thinking, oh, that's so sad. But you don't have a criminal record. You are about my age. You're about my height. You know what I'm thinking? Yeah. Yeah, you're perfect.
Starting point is 02:08:29 Like, you know, God forbid, I hope you, I hope things work out for you. here's 20 bucks, talk to you later, and then I leave and then, you know. It's like when Indiana Jones is like sizing somebody up to knock them out and take their uniform, you know, to blend in or James Bond. It's like that. Like you're interviewing them and you're pretending to be a social worker. And, but you're just like, fucking straight up criminal.
Starting point is 02:08:54 That's so funny. Did it did, so I imagine you're in prison and you're telling these stories to people. Are they going to, did you know? anybody who's going to get out and try it? Like, it just seems like, I don't know, it seems like it's asking for it, you know? They're not going to tell me that the people might have tried it. I mean, nobody's, you know, they're not going to tell me they're going to try it. Right, yeah. I mean, I don't know. I always think like, oh, they're asking too many questions about it or something, like anything like, anything like that. Like me, I'm asking too many questions
Starting point is 02:09:23 about it. Well, you know, it's funny is how many people I've interviewed that have done similar or things like that. Like, I met a girl who, I interviewed a woman who had done what's called the tax scam. Okay. And they actually called her the queen of the tax scam.
Starting point is 02:09:38 And do you know what the tax scam is? No. I mean, taxes. That's, I assume are the tax scam, but no. Right. So it's when you go and you file. So what people don't realize is that if I get somebody's social security number
Starting point is 02:09:50 who hasn't filed taxes, and I say that they're a W-2ed employee and they made $85,000 last, year they paid in 17,000 to taxes and the IRS owes me a rebate or a tax refund of $6,000 or $8,000 and I filed taxes for that person. They've never worked at Walmart, by the way. The IRS automatically pays you. Oh, the IRS pays you because you said you paid them? If I take, if I take, let's say I steal somebody's identity who hasn't filed taxes in years. Okay. Yeah. and I file for them.
Starting point is 02:10:31 Oh, okay. So I fill out the paperwork as John Doe. Yeah. And I say, look, and by the way, I work for Walmart for $85,000. I paid $17,000 in taxes. And you owe me a refund of $8,000. I need to put it on this prepaid debit card. Wow.
Starting point is 02:10:45 And the IRS, because they ask where do you want us to send the money? Yeah. So five days later, they automatically send you the money. Now, six months later, they might say, hey, wait a minute, Walmart's never heard of you. Yeah. But it's too late. It's too late. I got the money.
Starting point is 02:10:59 And I've been throwing away the card. So I met a woman who used to go out and give homeless people like a hundred bucks to get their information. Then she filed taxes and their names. Oh, my God. How much like, I mean, I don't know. You see like Elon Musk saying that there's the amount of fraud that's getting spent in taxes is like over a trillion dollars. Do you think that's true? Oh, I'm sure it's true.
Starting point is 02:11:19 You're sure it's true? I'm sure it's true. Like what about the Somali stuff? Is that like? Oh, I'm sure it's true. Listen, this is not hard to do. Yeah. And if you have a community of people working together, they'll decimate the government.
Starting point is 02:11:34 They'll take every single dime. I mean, you've got, if you got, one of the biggest things is trying to do everything by yourself. When you've got multiple people with multiple businesses ready to sign off and verify things, you've got people that work at banks, you've got people that, like, you got people, like, that whole community is nothing but, but Somalis. And if even a fraction of them are working in unison to defraud the government, come on, it's over. It's over. We need people like you in charge, honestly, who are like looking at these systems where they can and will be defrauded instead of people who are just like, well, you know, we gave it our best shot. If you send in a form, someone will look at it in six months. You know, the problem is, is that you could basically stop fraud.
Starting point is 02:12:17 The problem is you'd all, by doing that, you'd also stop normal people from being able to get those loans too. And that's really kind of where it breaks down. You have to have a balance of like we could put up a lot of, you know, a lot of defenses, right? But if we put them up so that it's so difficult, then tons of legitimate people that should have gotten those loans, they're not going to be able to get those loans. Yeah. You know, so it's a tradeoff, right? Like, you're always going to have scammers out there. We got too many of those now.
Starting point is 02:12:51 We're going in the wrong direction right now. I think we need to. I want to hear some actual complaints before we can, you know, start loosening the guardrails a little bit. I got so much more I want to ask you about prison. Maybe call back again sometime and we can talk about like all these people you've done, you've written their stories. Like it's just endlessly fascinating. This is a really, that was a really fantastic story. Thank you so much for calling in and talking about it.
Starting point is 02:13:21 No problem. Listen, I got tons of prison stories that are. layers too but I mean what did you say 13 years you're in prison yeah 13 years I'm just shy of 13 I just round God damn man um and that was you're cured there was no there you're straight no I'm all better now I do YouTube you're all better now was there like a year when you in prison you're like okay I'm cured now I'm like I'm not doing that again I mean honestly when I was getting out like I was like what are you going to do it's like I'm gonna get out I'm a bust my ass for about a year and if if in a year for
Starting point is 02:13:54 now, I'm riding the bus and I can barely pay my bills. I'm going to commit a massive, massive fraud and leave the United States because that's where I fucked up. But luckily, it didn't come to that. That's awesome. Okay, what's your book? I want to go buy it right away. And what's your YouTube channel? I mean, give us all the details, please. Yeah, I was just saying my my book is Shark in the House. housing pool. Okay. It's Matthew Cox, Shark in the Housing, but I don't think that anyway, Elsa has Shark in the Housing Pool. Um, and then, um, you know, my YouTube channel is, it's Matthew Cox inside true crime. Okay. Matthew Cox. And I'd say within a month from now, we're, we're about a month
Starting point is 02:14:44 away from being at a million subscribers on YouTube. That's awesome, man. Congratulations. Yeah, it's, it's, we really kind of, we're really kind of in the algorithm at this point. Yeah. Um, people love true crime. You're right in the middle of it. When are you releasing this? I'll probably release it today. I'll put it up. Oh, because listen to this. We just released a video of a chick that was doing credit card fraud, $20 million in credit card fraud.
Starting point is 02:15:13 Jesus. And we released it today. Like, I mean, you do you do YouTube? No, I got kicked off for making fun of fat women. Oh, that's right. Yeah. I hate that. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:15:25 That's right, because I know I, I, something. came across my uh on instagram about uh fat chicks on instagram i almost sent you the reel but i thought you know we're not that close we're that i mean i'll always take fat chick stuff man i mean we're that close send it over i thought no no i don't know if i should send that to it um but uh yeah um yeah anyway this video it's this uh this chick that was doing credit card fraud and if you hear the way she was doing credit card fraud it's it's over like it's I mean, it's very simple. Like, you can't believe it.
Starting point is 02:16:01 You're like, that can't work. Listen, she did. I forget what she did, nine years or something. Like, she did a ton of, like, she did, it was 20 million in fraud. It was great story. Anyway, you might want to check that out. She might be good to have on. I would, I would love to talk to her.
Starting point is 02:16:16 A guy, a guy called in maybe a year ago, get this scam that he was running. He would pretend to be, he would pretend to be a little boy online. and then when pedophiles would meet up with him, he would threaten to kick their ass and take them to an ATM to withdraw the max and then just keep the money. Very low, low tech, you know, not very sophisticated scam. No. He was very proud of himself when he called in.
Starting point is 02:16:44 See, I'd interview him. If he could talk about that for over an hour. I think he was in jail right now. It eventually backfired on him. Yeah. I forget how. Oh, that's Okay.
Starting point is 02:17:01 Are we? Yeah, we're done. Thank you, man. Thanks a lot. Yeah. Have a great day. All right. Thanks.

Maddox had his parking passes. Did he ever talk about those? I feel like. Maddox had a kit like Doc Brown from Back to the Future with the money.
Starting point is 02:21:58 Except it was a parking pass making kit where he would make fraudulent parking passes, probably his greatest bit. It's the easiest thing to do. And he was so proud of it that he could whip one up at any moment. Of course, it took him longer to whip one up. Then it was worth the like 250s.
Starting point is 02:22:16 Yeah, then it was worth walking. I spent three grand on this parking pass machine. Nate DeBard says, Love the show, getting ads every 10 minutes on Rumble, even on the mobile player. How can a service be that shitty? I don't know. Humanity, I nearly barfed up the six beers
Starting point is 02:22:36 and steak I had for dinner watching that last brain rot clip. Powder, what a horrible day to have eyes. Thanks, Johnny. Gwimbley. I've heard Stranger Things is a great way to end that scene instead of the gay weepiness. No, I've heard Stranger Things.
Starting point is 02:22:50 Francher Things. Fond attractor. I'm a video. TV settings are totally fucked and complicated for no good reason. Generally speaking, they exist for the sake of a marketing edge to trick stupid people into thinking one TV is better in the other.
Starting point is 02:23:05 About one in ten new features are legitimate improvements. As an engineer, it would make your blood boil to hear the details. Yeah, I... They haven't really added anything to TVs, except for the built-in Netflix thing. I guess that's the only good apps.

Starting point is 02:23:41 Dick, I realized, too, you asked me last time how much it would cost to lick one? Yeah. How much would it cost to fuck one, though? Less. I think I would fuck one more easily than I would eat one of those armpits Skebs. This guy's wife has it. Jesus. Well, right in, Mr. Guy. Would you rather
Starting point is 02:24:08 fuck it? Would you rather lick it or fuck it? The armpit stuff? And if so, what's your price point? Shoehorn are plenty. I've never seen toad stools grow under an armpit. Like, a lot of armpit made me eating my wapper very difficult. But I couldn't let the brain rot win. That's a true soldier in the comments right there.
Starting point is 02:24:26 Mr. Banks says initial D fucking sucks. Watch Redline if you want a racing anime. I don't want to... Racing or any anime. He's right in the first half. Chris Prado says there's most definitely Christian-based dance music.

Sean said he talked to Maddox and you kept egging him for details but Sean wouldn't say he just we talked about him I told him it wasn't right. Yeah I don't I don't remember. Um, I don't know how much longer he was on the show after that though. I'm very interested to see if Sean's opinion of the matter seeps into his zings at Maddox. I'm sure it'll be but I'm too sane to watch the best debate on my own. Yes. That's why we will be watching more of it together. Yes. On the next bonus episode.
Starting point is 02:26:05 Fave for the show, great quote from a Swedish woman at 121. Two months ago, we were at Minneapolis's Somali neighborhood and visited the largest open-air Somali mall in the country. On every floor, there were multiple Somali businesses that allowed residents to send money back to Somalia. New reporting... Oh, okay, so they just have... You can send money back?
Starting point is 02:26:30 Let's see. Let's see, and then we'll do some voicemails. I see cow dung cakes in those notes. You see that? Oh, man. Here, look at this shit. Poutered, Indian powdered cow shit. Look.
Starting point is 02:26:53 That's this for sale in Australia. An Indian specialty shop in Auckland sells two liters of fresh cow urine for 250 bucks. Use for medical disinfectant quote. That's how they're selling it. Cow done cakes for 220 a kilogram. Suitable for worship festivals. You bring cow shit to the cow shit festival. And powdered cow shit for your baby.
Starting point is 02:27:17 This guy brought cow piss to a cow shit festival. What an asshole. Look at this. Good baby. Made in village babies. What the fuck? It's like the first. The first time.

Starting point is 02:28:44 shit. Burned up for your baby. Made by village babies. What the fuck out of here? Babies wrong, too. B-A-B. Did they have an apostrophe? Why ass? No.
Starting point is 02:28:58 Oh, yeah. Village. B-A-B-B-Y. Babies. Village babbies. Flaming cow shit. Good babby made by village babbies. So this implies the like
Starting point is 02:29:10 What do you do for a living? Like I work at the cowshit burning factory. Is it separate from the cow shit factory? Do we get a delivery of cow shit in the morning? It is. Good baby Desi cow dung babuthi is her traditional Hindi ritual item made from cow shit.
Starting point is 02:29:30 It's believed to have spiritual and purifying properties by retarded people by retarded Indians. It's often used in religious ceremony. and rituals for blessings and protections by disgusting, retarded idiots. 100% pure, natural, non-scented na'u ma'atu-ma-atu-thru-inu. There you go.
Starting point is 02:29:54 It's holy ash used in Hindu religious festival worship. The ash is basically the residue of Indian cow dung, desic cow that is burned in traditional methods in sacred fire. Bad day to mistake your powdered toothpaste for that. So I guess we're all buying burned cow shit and trying to swap it in each other's drinks now. Is that what we're doing? Hey, I'm not spiking your drink with dried, burnt cow shit. Where would I even get burned cow shit?
Starting point is 02:30:27 Yeah. Really, you think I'm going to be able to get burned cow shit? This guy. What do you think they sell it in jars on Amazon? You think I have a jar at home of burned cow shit? and I'm just carrying around a Ziploc baggie waiting for you to leave your drink alone or something. Like it's a tang container or something?
Starting point is 02:30:45 This is what I'm going to send when people say, oh, it's the same as going to Venezuela's the same as going to Afghanistan. Do they have burned cow shit? I'm going to say take a two handful of it and smack it against your face. Wonderful.
Starting point is 02:31:03 All right. Oh yeah, this guy's video. Fave. Got a quote from a Swedish woman. How Somalis in Minnesota funds Somalia. Yeah? Is it working? Oh no, it's this. Never mind. Sorry, hold on. Boop, bo, bo, bo. It's quite large. In fact, World Bank data shows that 17.5% of Somalia's GDP consists of remittances. A remittances is a transfer of money, usually by a migrant worker to their family or friends in their home country. 40,000 Minnesotans were born in Somalia, so many are...
Starting point is 02:31:45 still in close touch with their families back home. We continue to walk around the Carmel Mall when, as if we weren't out of place enough already, a cop came to escort us to building management. R-O-C-A news. All right, so we were just pulled aside by security. Now we're okay, though, to film inside. So one interesting thing is when a store is unoccupied, people won't necessarily lock it. We've seen a lot of unattended to stores. It's clearly like a high trust community here, and we are the Only two white guys and all four floors. Probably a front. I moved from Sweden five years ago.
Starting point is 02:32:21 What brought me? I came here because there was already Somali community established. So I say, okay, let me go there so that I can start my business. The community are like huge supporters for each other. The white Americans around, are they friendly? Are they not? I know none of them. When I was coming to America for the first time, I was carrying a Swedish passport.
Starting point is 02:32:40 And I was black and hijabi, you know? And the officers in the immigration, they were like, hmm, they brought me. We're expecting a Viking. That's what America stands for. Like, everybody's segregated in their own community. White people are with white people. Somali people are with Somali people. That's what America is.
Starting point is 02:32:54 You come here, you start your own community, and you stay with their community. That's what America is. White people are with white people? Somalis with the Somalis. Why the fuck are you here then? Why would we want you here then? You know where a really big Somali community is? Where's that?
Starting point is 02:33:09 Fucking Somalia. Oh, Somalia. That's the biggest community of all. They had a great way to get them to take their people back. What you do is you find who's in charge and you black bag them. And then you keep doing that until the person in charge says yes. Send them back. Funny how that works.
Starting point is 02:33:31 It's really cheap. It's really cheap. We got a lot of great strapping young men who are just itching to get in there and shoot anybody, you know? At this point, yeah. Take them to a military base, preferably. Un-fucking real. That's America, man. You got Somalis living with Somalis. White people live with white people. It's great. I figured I would just go there.
Starting point is 02:33:56 Why the fuck are you here then? Uh, you're... You're half right. Somehow their money all gets mixed together though. Right. I don't know how that happens. Uh, uh, uh, yeah. Okay. Um, should we do voicemails? Do a quick fat watch. Maybe quick fat watch.
Starting point is 02:34:17 Maybe a quick fat watch. Let's do it. I'm going to get out of here. Fat watch today in fat news. This is from Vinny. You know it's going to be good. It's a fat wrestler. Did you know that they exist?

Yeah, like a skinny Amy Schumer. changes, she was berated, she was insulted, she was made it feel less than by even rape, and she, and, you jobs want to be thankful for that?
Starting point is 02:36:27 And, Corey, it changes or could you don't. How does a fat woman get involved in wrestling? Because usually they're, like, skinny. Audience slipped, I think. Fitness models. You have to put a cupcake on the line. Lure them in? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:36:42 Yeah, come on in. Beat this skinny bitch and we'll feed you a whole cake. It's a cafe match. The winner gets, they have to complete the buffet. In the buffet?
