Speaker 4

Well , let me just tell you , this is how I feel about it .

Speaker 3

How do you feel ?

Speaker 4

I am so excited that we have a man that's going to stand up .

Speaker 3

Yeah , we have a president with balls .

Speaker 4

Yeah , that's not going to be a politician and not going to be worried about . Oh , they might not spend this kind of money with us and we might not get that from them .

Speaker 3

Well , let's not forget .

Speaker 4

We don't care .

Speaker 3

Let's not forget this is why he was voted in . People seem to forget that . Yeah , Everything Trump is doing right now is what he . That was his agenda , pretty much .

Speaker 4

Yeah , and we knew this .

Speaker 3

That's why people voted for him .

Speaker 4

And that's why other people are so pissed off , get over it .

Speaker 3

You know we deal with the other shit for four years . How'd that go ? None of us cried like you , little bitches . I shouldn't say that shit . I don't want to make this mean or anything . Nope but anyway that part .

Speaker 4

We have a guy now in office that's just not going to let people push us around , no more . I mean , there's a reason . We're trillions of dollars in debt .

Speaker 3

Is he a polished person ? No , but I don't need my president to be polished , no , I , hey . I voted for Obama that first term . Oh excellent , it's going to be changed . Where'd that change come from ? Who's a salesman ? Yep , use car salesperson . That's what I thought of him . They didn't vote for him . That second term we discussed this before Yep , where'd that get us ? And here's another thing I want to bring up .

Speaker 3

I don't want to get away from the Zelensky-Trump thing because I do want to talk about that , but this immigration bullshit that's going on , people getting pissed at Trump for what he's doing , they forget Obama was how many of these ? Over 2 million he sent back ? Nobody squawked then , not a person . And 2 million he sent back Nobody squawked then , not a person . And I wasn't going to squawk then I mean , that's one thing he did that .

Speaker 4

I appreciated that was a great thing .

Speaker 3

But now , all of a sudden , it's the hypocrisy , Tom . I'll tell you . Well , it's double-sided .

Speaker 4

Double-sided Everything's double standard .

Speaker 3

It's crazy . Let's get back to Zelensky and Trump .

Speaker 4

I mean , here's the whole point I feel like Trump was so upset about was the feeling he got that Zelensky didn't even feel appreciative , no Of anything .

Speaker 3

Very arrogant .

Speaker 4

He came off as arrogant . I'm here to get this . I'm here to get this , not hey . Can you please help me ?

Speaker 3

Unfortunately , he was probably looking for the older guy he spoke to earlier .

Speaker 4

Yeah , where's the older guy ?

Speaker 3

I spent earlier . Can I speak to him again ?

Speaker 4

Yeah , please .

Speaker 3

I saw that meme . I don't know who posted that , but that was awesome .

Speaker 4

Yeah , great one .

Speaker 3

It was good . So pretty boring time of season in sports for me .

Speaker 4

Yeah , there's not a whole lot going on . I'm not into basketball .

Speaker 3

much March Madness will be coming up . I know you get into that ?

Speaker 4

Yes , I do get into that a little bit because I have a team that usually wins , but anyway , I heard they got bumped out of number one already .

Speaker 3

for some reason I'd involved the top whatever 25 .

Speaker 4

But anyway I just jumped around .

Speaker 3

But back to the Zielinski thing and let's's see as far as why , why , why do we want to stick up for ukraine ? Listen , like trump said , he doesn't want anybody dying . Doesn't want anybody dying , nobody . Oh , he's a putin puppet . No , no , he's not . He wants peace . I believe that , and I can't see . You got warmongers in the freaking yeah , war makes money . Yeah , exactly , it does the war machine .

Speaker 4

That's crazy , but here you got a guy that wants to stop the killing .

Speaker 3

Oh no , no , no , that's not good .

Speaker 4

That's not good for our bottom line . Well , who was it ? The Gates , didn't he say it ? The best we can make this vaccine and decrease the population this month .

Speaker 3

That's what he wants he said it people . It's on video A couple years ago , but yeah , he said it .

Speaker 4

It was there .

Speaker 3

Look it up people .

Speaker 4

The decrease means less .

Speaker 3

I really don't know what Zelensky's whole issue was . He thought he was going to do it . He thought it was going to be like Biden he was going to come in . He was going to get some money and leave and yeah , see you later . What gets me even more is all these European countries backing Ukraine . I understand the part of backing Ukraine on certain things .

Speaker 4

Sure .

Speaker 3

We're not going to give you money on it . Let these European countries pay whatever you're doing , then yeah . European countries pay whatever you're doing , then yeah , because if they want it back , let them help back . Oh well , we need security . Well , you know what ? Get security , we got a favor . We need some mineral rights , and I agree with that . Why to give money away constantly with no payback ? Nope .

Speaker 4

Well , you're protecting them .

Speaker 3

We're not the world's protectors .

Speaker 4

Nope .

Speaker 3

I don't care what people think . We're a country we're protecting our own a hope we should be protected .

Speaker 4

Now we are and now I'm gonna vote for a person who's going to protect our own what she's doing right , and I'm sorry for the people who don't see it that way . Oh , they see the okay . But the people who hate him hate him because they him , because he don't fit their needs . He's not helping their need .

Speaker 3

The thing is , he is helping their needs . Oh , you're talking about politicians , Right ?

Speaker 4

right right .

Speaker 3

Okay , I got you , not the normal everyday people .

Speaker 4

No , no , no , no , right , normal , everyday people .

Speaker 3

Most people do understand that other people going to your point . Only listen to those other newscasters . We know I don't want to call them newscaster journalists . They're paid off . You're only getting one side of the story and people can't see that you know what people I'm going to be honest . I believe Fox News has their agenda too , but the more you watch Fox News and the more people on there they do call out certain things on Trump .

Speaker 4

Yeah , they do .

Speaker 3

Which I've never seen any of the other stations MSNBC , nbc , cbs , abc ever call out Biden . They won't call out Biden . We know why now , but anyways , let's drift off it . We've ranted for a little bit here on politics , so of course we can do a whole podcast on this shit .

Speaker 4

Yeah , because point blank , Zelensky just disrespected our country .

Speaker 3

You may not like it , but in the long run we can't keep throwing money away like that . We can't ?

Speaker 4

He came over here , disrespected us by not being appreciative of what we were already doing .

Speaker 3

Absolutely right . That's the number one . Can't come over here all arrogant .

Speaker 4

When you decide to change your when you're a parent remember when the kid was little bitty when you decide to change your attitude , you can come back in here with the rest of us .

Speaker 3

Right .

Speaker 4

It kind of just makes me laugh .

Speaker 3

That's

Exploring the Trump

Speaker 3

basically what it was . It just makes me laugh that he's acting the way he is and everybody thinks he was getting bullied on . You can't in our country . Anyways , like I said , we could do a whole segment , but we'll get off of this and drift on to some other shit .

Speaker 4

Other shit . Hey that ought to be a segment .

Speaker 3

Other shit . Let's talk other shit . We could make that another segment .

Speaker 4

That would be pretty cool . Ladies and gentlemen , welcome to the .

Speaker 3

MTBcast , where we talk other shit . Other shit . Anywho , this is nice .

Speaker 4

Did you just say anywho ?

Speaker 3

Speaker 4

Speaker 4

Yeah , well , have a yeah later .

Speaker 3

Well , I don't think Pip should have told Squeak about his little contract with us .

Speaker 4

No , not at all .

Speaker 3

He was a little upset he is right , though I mean he came up . This is what he wanted . I don't understand what's going on with Squeak .

Speaker 4

I don't know .

Speaker 3

I think Squeak parties a little too much .

Speaker 4

Yeah , he probably got away with it , he's going to get better at negotiating . He's not better at anything .

Speaker 3

I have a car . He lives out in that hole in the hill somewhere , way out in the middle of nowhere yeah he's quite the trip , that dude yeah , he brags about a possum that he knows wait a minute . What's this ?

Speaker 4

some kind of possum he has a possum .

Speaker 3

that's his friend , supposedly a genius , oh shit .

Speaker 4

Yeah .

Speaker 3

Who knew ?

Speaker 4

Yeah , so what the hell is that ? I'm not sure . Looks a little mysterious .

Speaker 3

Yeah , I don't know what the hell that was .

Speaker 4

Speaking of mysterious .

Speaker 3

Yeah .

Speaker 4

Gene Hackman .

Speaker 3

That's very strange , the whole thing is strange . No carbon monoxide .

Speaker 4

The only thing , yeah , that's the only thing they've ruled out , and you just kind of got to wonder what's going on out there . Right , I mean his heart , his pacemaker . The last , I guess they said the last .

Speaker 3

Yeah , that's how they knew the time of death pretty much . Yeah right , that's the last thing was like 17 . Yeah right . That's the last thing , and then they're thinking maybe the weird part is , they did say , the dog could have ate some pills . Oh it could have .

Speaker 4

Yeah , because it was all doing an autopsy on the dog too .

Speaker 3

But this is all weird stuff .

Speaker 4

It's just weird , weird stuff .

Speaker 3

She's in the bathroom . He's in the mudroom .

Speaker 4

Next to the kitchen .

Speaker 3

Where was the dog ?

Speaker 4

In a crate , locked in a crate .

Speaker 3

Oh , then the dog couldn't have ate the pills .

Speaker 4

Maybe they gave him the pills and then put him in the crate .

Speaker 3

Because they said there was no pills on the floor and on the ground , it was all in the counter .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I'm not sure . I'm not sure .

Speaker 3

But anyways .

Speaker 4

It's just a weird situation Anyway .

Speaker 3

Yeah .

Speaker 4

Speaking of weird situations .

Speaker 3

I looked up some 911 calls Strange 911 calls that dispatchers have heard . So let's take a little look down that list . See what we got , all right , okay . See what we got , alrighty , okay . Our first one , tom , is titled the Emergency McNuggets Shortage .

Speaker 4

Oh my . God .

Speaker 3

Okay . A woman called 911 in a panic because a McDonald's ran out of chicken McNuggets . Oh how atrocious . She was furious and demanded the police come to resolve the emergency . Well , of course , mcdonald's are everywhere . Go to another goddamn McDonald's , my God , one night , and no McDuggets is going to ruin your life .

Speaker 4

Probably that's all the life you got to call 911 on that .

Speaker 3

Oh wait , a minute , here's one , the stuck in a hoodie crisis .

Speaker 4

Uh-oh .

Speaker 3

Help me . A man called 911 because he got his arms stuck inside his hoodie and couldn't get out .

Speaker 4

Of course not .

Speaker 3

He was apparently flailing around so much that he thought he was in serious danger .

Speaker 4

Listen , put the shrooms down , buddy .

Speaker 3

Okay , he may have taken a little too many .

Speaker 4

See , this is what research is .

Speaker 3

This is why you listen to us .

Speaker 4

Yes , listen to us .

Speaker 3

This is where you get the research .

Speaker 4

Yes , we research it for you , then you don't get caught in a hoodie and call 911 and sound like a damn idiot .

Speaker 3

He didn't read the packaging either , obviously . Alright , how about the mystery of the missing remote ? Now , remember folks , these are 911 calls . These aren't just stupid shit . Well , stupid , but 911 calls , Alright . One caller reported a break-in because they couldn't find their TV remote . They were convinced the burglars had snuck in just to steal their remote .

Speaker 4

Well , he needed a remote .

Speaker 3

What the hell is wrong with these people .

Speaker 4

I'm telling you , why would you steal just a remote ? What a dummy .

Speaker 3

The cat that was holding them hostage . Oh no , a terrified caller reported being trapped in their own home by an aggressive house cat that wouldn't let them leave the room . Let me put it this way Cats can be little bitches man , they got them claws and them teeth .

Speaker 4

Frick them .

Speaker 3

Dogs are even afraid of them . Damn things man . Fuck a cat man . I'm going to say that right now . I'd probably do the same thing , anyway .

Speaker 4

Unless I shot it . I'm not a cat person either .

Speaker 3

All right , okay , here's one the ghost in the house . Is that a reason to call 911 ?

Speaker 4

I'm just a ghost in this house .

Speaker 3

A woman called 911 , convinced her house was haunted . The dispatcher patiently explained that ghosts aren't an emergency , unless they were actively committing a crime .

Speaker 4

Oh well , you know ghosts .

Speaker 3

Is that ghost committing a crime right now , man ?

Speaker 4

Well , he broke in .

Speaker 3

Oh God , this has to go back to COVID . Oh shit , the toilet paper crisis . A panicked man called because he ran out of toilet paper while in the bathroom . He genuinely expected emergency services to bring him some Dude . If you're at your own house , shit , get in the freaking shower . Blow that shit out , done .

Speaker 4

Wait a minute , here's my thought .

Speaker 3

Okay , shower , blow that shit out , done .

Speaker 4

Wait a minute , here's my thought Okay . You have thoughts . I do , finally , at one point here .

Speaker 3

Yeah .

Speaker 4

You've got to think .

Speaker 3

Okay .

Speaker 4

I'm probably going to shit again tomorrow . I probably ought to go buy some toilet paper .

Speaker 3

Well , that's true , but in the meantime , why would you call 911 ? Because you don't have it . You already shit , it's already been done . You have a shower , jump in the shower and freaking hose that thing off , man .

Speaker 4

Well , that's true too , but my personal thought is just go ahead , don't wipe your ass at all . No , well , that works .

Speaker 3

Do you have a phone book Newspaper ?

Speaker 4

I'm not using a phone book Newspaper . I'm not using a phone book .

Speaker 3

Why not ?

Speaker 4

Well , because I need that for stalking . I mean to find people .

Speaker 3

Okay , let's not go there again . All right , what do you mean again ? Moving on to no . Moving on to number seven the I've been poisoned call . Yeah , I've had that before . One caller thought they were poisoned , but it turned out they had just eaten too much wasabi for the first time and couldn't handle the spice . Oopsie , oh sorry , listen .

Speaker 4

on that note , I have to feel for this person because if there would have been a phone close , I would have called 911 . One day I was at the Pepper Shack in Gatlinburg , tennessee , woo-hoo . Anyway , I had tried . They've got these 18 or older things that you have to be this old . Well , I didn't know . You're supposed to put a toothpick in there and try a little bit on your tongue .

Speaker 3

Oh , the hot toes .

Speaker 4

Yeah , so it said samples . So , yeah , it said samples . So I took a hot peanut and dipped it in the hot sauce and tossed it in the old mouth . Well , I know that now , but I ran all over .

Speaker 3

That's what the toothpicks are for .

Speaker 4

No , I thought they were to pick your teeth after you ate the beer .

Speaker 3

No , those things are hot . You want a sample ?

Speaker 4

Well , anyway , I ran all over the place looking for a freaking drink that day .

Speaker 3

I thought I was going to have a heart attack , and that's another thing that doesn't help . You need like bread or milk or something .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I don't know whatever , but I thought I was going attack that day .

Speaker 3

Here's one that both of us can appreciate and we've probably been there .

Speaker 4

What we've fallen and can't get up .

Speaker 3

We can . Uh , I'm too high . Incident oh yes , you can relate , I know you can . A man called 911 to report that he was way too high . He told dispatchers that he had eaten too many edibles and time had stopped .

Speaker 4

Pretty sure . He wasn't quite sure , but he's pretty sure I'm pretty sure time stopped and I don't know if you'd even come at this time .

Speaker 3

Oh , how about the wrong kind of milkshake ? You ever go to a restaurant , you order something , you get the wrong milkshake . What would you do ? Well , my taste buds are waiting , yeah , but you get the milk . Would you just go in and say , listen , I got the wrong milkshake . Wouldn't that take care of it ? You see , it's the wrong milkshake , right ? Not like you're going home and going oh fuck , that's the wrong milkshake well , either way , I'm gonna call like I'm one one right no , we're not doing that oh a man was called 9-1-1 because his fast food milkshake wasn't the right consistency .

Speaker 4

Oh , that's even worse .

Speaker 3

He thought he had been scammed and wanted an officer to investigate . God , you fucking people are fucking stupid . I just can't believe this . Shit's real . That's awesome . How about the ? My ice cream is too cold .

Speaker 4

Well , my God .

Speaker 3

That's why I'm calling 911 . Okay , well , wait Listen . I just bought some ice cream . I cold , well , my God , that's

Ridiculous 911 Calls: Laughing Through the Absurd

Speaker 3

why I'm calling 911 . Listen . I just bought some ice cream . I took it out of my freezer . It's fucking too cold .

Speaker 4

Now , what am I supposed to do with this ? Can you come to my house please , Maybe deep fry that shit .

Speaker 3

One frustrated caller dialed 911 to report that the ice cream was too cold and was hurting their teeth .

Speaker 4

Oh , Sensodyne people . It's out there .

Speaker 3

They wanted to know if there was a way to make it less cold without melting it completely . Sure it is .

Speaker 4

Oh , my freaking God , put it in the microwave , dumbass .

Speaker 3

You know dispatchers . You have a shitty job already , but damn the stupidity you have to deal with . My God .

Speaker 4
