That and some quick viewer mail here, people were really disappointed that when RobZone. Raphael Septian came up the other day that we didn't Kemp spinning. Him? Yeah. What?

The Cowboys Kicker, no word on whether or not. Do you guys know? What did we know about Raphael? I don't know if he was friends with Pete O'Brien, who also played for the Rangers in town around that same time. But Raphael Septian was indicted by a grand jury on charges of, quote, what was called the time, mishandling a minor. which I think never mind I don't know I don't want to

anyway he pled guilty indecency with a child and he yeah he yeah he was released by the Cowboys because of that oh wow because I knew they had another guy who like exposed flashed him that was Lance Lance Allworth Renssel

Lance Rensel No pants Lance I believe is what We apologize to the family of Lance Allworth Yeah if that's a person In the case of Raphael Septian, it was his, it was a 10-year-old friend of his roommate's daughter. Ooh. Which also, if you're the Cowboys kicker in the 80s and you still have a roommate.

Yeah, you're like on the greatest team ever. Now, it says as part of his terms, he was ordered to avoid alcoholic beverages, which... What do you mean by avoid? That sounds like it's... We're on honor system here, right? Yeah. Yeah, I don't. Just try to stay away a little bit.

It was the 80s, dude. But it is funny that, like, he didn't get a DUI. It's that they looked at the facts from, like, every time this guy has too much wine, he's fucking six. Yeah, it's not him. It's the wine. Come on, man. Stay off the sauce.

Oh, yeah. They never, I never learned that in NFL films or anything when they were talking about the great Latino kicker. Cowboy team. Yeah. There you go. Shall we do some news? Sure.

Here's Jake with the Dumb Zone News. This is a story that we talked about, I believe at the time, but the guy has now been sentenced. The guy, Houston-based, sentenced to seven years in federal prison for his role in a jugging scheme. What's jugging? When thieves follow a victim as they service or withdraw cash from ATMs. so basically like you go to the ATM probably specifically at a bank so you know that when you know a gas station you don't know what they're getting so you follow that person and now you know they have cash on them and you rob them but in the case of this guy he was doing it to an ATM technician ooh so right to the source seven years it was about 250 grand so to our thing yet yesterday of five years for $8.5 million. This is a bad bit.

But they robbed actually several ATM techs. Get the hoodie, cover the face, as soon as they get the cash, leave the parking lot of run up on them. And how much did they get away with? 260 total. Two days after the last robbery, Blake, the accused was caught on video at a,

jewelry store buying a diamond Rolex back to back days I know don't flaunt it I know

buy Doge or something Doge We could be criminal consultants We've said that before Have we? I just had the idea

now So we couldn't have So you just hire us We'll talk it out Like lay out your plan with us

What do we got? Spitball it. We get 5%. Yeah. That's not illegal, right? We're just giving advice. It's Julie Dobbs, everyone. Julie Dobbs.

She's here to present. Oh, she's here to give us some CBD, some early bird. Early bird CBD. It's got T.HC. Thanks. Only the ones that use the Dumb Zone. of the THC. That's right.

We don't do all of our teacher-student sex stories anymore. It really feels like the Salinas situation, like, broke the dam where there's an improper relationship with a student story in the news every single day now. So you've got to have a little wrinkle to get into the news. Here's the wrinkle on this one. What was yesterday's? It was in a car. Yeah, but it was a 16-year-old.

It was a cop. Listen to how disgusted Steve Eager is at the same. start of this news story. Mesquite police say a former teacher used AI artificial intelligence to come up with a child grooming plan before he was arrested. Dude.

You're asking chat GPT how to trick this teenager into sleeping with you? Absolutely. Huh. Dude, the kids are lazy today, man. You know, you hear about nobody writes a college essay anymore. Nobody can read. You can't even

woo a child anymore on your own without a robot. He must not have used incognito chat GPT. Oh my God. You hear about people who like fall in love with them or that eventually it convinces him to kill themselves because they're like, yes, that actually is you need release from this pain. Not this guy.

Not this guy. Here's more in the report later about how he was using it. Please say among the evidence they seized was an iPad with an artificial intelligence generated note titled hypothetical counter influence plan that outlines a step-by-step plan to emotionally influence minor. It includes steps like stabilized and strengthen her and plant gentle doubts. It sounds like it answered him. It answered him. It sounds like the Dennis system, right, from Always Sunny. Well, this is very interesting just because you do wonder the pedophile that does groom or whatever, like are they really thinking it through.

Well, thinking of through her is just who they are. You know, you always think of them as natural. You know, they're more griffies. They don't need to stretch before a game. Yeah, that's just the way they operate. But this guy's like realizing his game needs work. I'd like these kids, but I don't know how. So I'm just going to get in the film room.

Yeah. But is that sniffed out as not being authentic? like how did they how did they get this info they just busted him uh yeah i think they had and they found his laptop yes the mom contacted

the parents after finding text messages okay well because see that's the thing is that i'm not saying that this has not always been going on you know i think back to like mind hunter the netflix show where they'd show up at a middle school and they're like oh you're here for mr such and such he's just funny and the FBI's like no i don't think so yeah

So this has been going on forever. Yeah. I do think that the level of communication between... Communing or what? Yeah. Kellen and Gruden. I think that the level of communication from student to teacher has increased significantly. Because they can text now.

I told you. How are you going to talk to your teacher when you were 15? She's 32 and she's horny? What are you going to do? She's going to call the house? I mean, you think your dad sniff that one out pretty quickly? You're who again? I'll be over.

Yeah, what about me? Yeah, come on. He didn't know what to do. Think of the boy. Now, I told you it was real weird the first time I got a text from a 11-year-old girl, which was a girl on our softball team. But I guess her mom gave my number. She's like, oh, this is whatever her name was, and Ashley or something.

It's like, yeah, I'll be late for practice. I just thought, I don't like this. I would want her mom to be copied on that text. you know like also it's a three-way text or something i totally agree but then like i found in my life that even bringing that up some people are like oh stop it what are you worried about i'm like i'm worried about everything it just felt yeah bad uh so the guy that she was a uh she she attended a church where the the 32 year old coach his dad was the senior pastor and he was a volleyball coach she played volleyball

so he just told her like, hey, what if... First red flag. Honestly, I was thinking it. I know we got a big volleyball coach, bro, who is a big listener, but I... And he plays dominoes. I'll say it. He's a good guy. He's not one of the ones.

Do he volleyball coach? Yeah, he said to her... Whose daughter doesn't play volleyball? No mention of a daughter in here. Just a club coach. You want to get the best. What if it's Singen Smith? I think that's a volleyball player.

But I'm not sure. Anybody else? Nope. A lot of head shaking. That probably goes for the whole audience. Search it, Blake. Shingon Smith. I think that's a sand volleyball player.

He started, he told her that he needed, hey, maybe I could get you to approve me on social media so I can send you some highlights, some volleyball highlights. So that's how the relationship started. I need you to approve me on social media. Like, you got to be able to DM. him, you know? Yeah, but I couldn't text that, the highlights? We already got text.

You probably started with the DMs, but they hooked up a lot, storage closet. Ooh. He had a gun, which he was, like, showing her to say like, hey, you know,

maybe don't fuck around here. I will hurt you. So how old was she? Started at 16. And he's a 32-year-old teacher? Mm-hmm. That's no good. Can't do that.

I'm surprised the AI didn't. And let me read for you. We didn't what? Why? Why can you do that? Did I let me play this situation? Let me play this for you. Let me play this for you.

How to commit a crime. Please say the plan was consistent with grooming characteristics. Look, I think that once artificial intelligence became accessible to the public, we criminologists began to be concerned because we thought that, you know, it could be weaponized in order to victimize individuals. A hundred percent. And I've done some reading around. On this, too, I'm afraid to, like, actually look it up.

Have you guys ever remembered somebody, like, you're a friend from MLB, Mel Hall, who got convicted of child porn charges? If you type in Mel Hall child porn on Google, before you get the results, there's, like, a lot of stuff at the top about, like, hey, call someone if you're having trouble. Oh, really? Yeah. If you Google suicide or, like, when do I need to stop drinking? There's a whole of things that are like show up

that are like call this number go to this website you should not be looking at this and I'm like no no I'm just trying to prove that my buddy at a pito friend

but if I have heard that you can use chat GP I mean there's people that have planned like mass shootings and it will give you the vulnerability points of

buildings of how I had a plan of like what type of weapons will work best, these sorts of things. That seems bad. In this case, it provided a five-point plan. Unreal.

Step one. As to how to bag a 16-year-old. Stabilize and strengthen her. Step two. We don't need these. Can I read them? Yeah. Plant gentle doubts.

Step three, rebuild her autonomy. step four shift the power dynamic and step five let her choose that five seems like on its own i had a feeling you'd you'd seize on that one i mean it just feels pro choice right the power ball has jumped to one and a quarter billion dollars just a few days before christmas okay so that's the reason i didn't win because they want you to win close to Christmas. God wanted me to win more. But this isn't enough for you. I can't take care of all your friends.

Buy some tickets for the show. What show? Our show. Oh, okay. That'll be your Christmas present. Somebody won a Millie on a scratch off in Arlington. When's the next drawing? Is it Sunday? Sunday?

Yeah, I think so. Or wait, there was one last night, too? No. Yeah. Oh, yeah, you're right. There's a tomorrow? Yeah. Okay, well, maybe, yeah, maybe we can...

Wednesday night. We'll give some out on our sub-a-thon if nobody wins. Where do we fall on scratch-offs for the stockings? Good bit, bad bit. I get them every year. For friends? No, like, that's what my mom puts in my stocking every year. My dad used to love to get people with the fake ones.

What? That you scratch a $5 million winner. That's a thing? Yeah. God, I'm glad my dad doesn't know about that. That's right from the cat. category of hello oh oh i got you i'm not here leave me a message he's not normally the type but yeah made this lady cry is it was bad girl wow she started crying i get said my daughters to

college and then dad's like got you my god that's so bad she starts saying like things you don't know she's dealing with like finally my cancer i'll be able to pay for the treatment i've been looking for finally divorce this asshole oh merry christmas man that's awesome i mean awesome that exists but that would be yeah that'd be the worst
