Hey, townies, welcome to another episode of Dumb People Town.
Population to you.
Population, Cummins.
Dan.
Cummins.
Another Dan in the house.
This is like a time suck, dumb people town mashup.
Sometimes we talk about things.
We get into theories.
And there are conspiracies and all sorts of wonderful stuff.
Two Daniels, two Sklars.
Two Dan's and two Sklars.
Daniel and Dan, Dan and Daniel, Ran and Jay.
The world is getting dumber.
We know that.
Yes.
We know that is happening.
Do you feel that?
Do you sense that in all of your sort of windings
through the labyrinths of this world
that like we are suddenly getting dumber?
I just saw the turn like, I don't know,
three or four years ago where it's like
I've tried to debunk conspiracies
the whole time with Time Suck
and everybody was on board
like the first couple years.
Like, oh, those are silly.
That's ridiculous.
That's crazy that people would believe that.
And I remember when QAnon came around
and when it first came around,
I didn't even do a full episode on it i did like a little patreon mini thing because i was like this is so stupid there's not even enough to talk about for an hour and a half right
and then when that went mainstream and i started seeing bumper stickers and t i'm like
it is preposterously idiotic so has your pot we'll talk about the pocket but now it's political too
i know that's right right so now everything is having a stance on crazy conspiracy stuff oh
you're woke means that you put in yeah it's crazy it's always that people i always try to tell people
the absence of information is not information right right like that so many can hinge hinge
on that well how come you never see any because they don't exist that's why you don't like because
otherwise you can say the absence of information dan well could provide you to
believe anything if someone says well what up there so it must be right that must be how it
is like no that's oh daniel if someone says well what about i'm like this discussion's over we're
finished uh think about occam's razor yeah that philosophical it's like there's two possibilities
and one requires millions of people to keep a secret and aliens and a hollow earth and just completely throwing science on its head.
And the other one is like the simplest thing, the simplest thing ever.
It's probably that thing.
Yeah.
It's most definitely that.
Yeah.
It's too much effort and energy to keep something like quiet like that.
You don't think one person's going to leak.
You don't think one person is going to keep something like quiet like that you don't think one person's gonna leak you don't think one person's gonna say something also i think sometimes it has to do with like uh the
inability to process what the truth must be yeah like i think a lot of times people have a hard
time with uh 9-11 because they they would then have to accept how susceptible we are to right
yeah they're there and attack helps so they go it must be
like some a comic had a great joke where they were like america's so crazy that like we even
wanted to take there's some americans even wanted to take credit for doing that to ourselves
right like that like the terrorists were like all right we got them and they know that we can get
them whatever you want oh no yeah they were like wait what no they're saying there's a lot of them saying they did it to themselves that we actually
didn't do it they're like no we did it like no we got it like no they actually believe that's like
trolling the terrorists all right let's jump into inside story let's do it let's get into dumb
dumb is always an inside i have a bad one i have story one is i hate the person in this i cannot
wait i hate how I've done.
Think dumb things happened.
And then I just had how their reaction to the quote unquote victim.
Okay.
I can't wait.
Okay.
Sent in by Adam Poulton at Poultsky.
75.
Love it.
Unwanted side of marijuana found in food delivery.
Okay.
So a side of marijuana.
I got a cheeseburger and suddenly a side
of marijuana. Sweet. Columbus, Ohio
was just there on tour.
A Columbus man found marijuana at the bottom
of a bag of food he ordered to be
delivered. Yeah. So obviously
not what he wanted. No, you should not order
from door hash.
We could probably end the episode
right there.
Everybody have a good night those are our plugs thank you
the man asked to remain anonymous but said
he ordered the food through door dash
I just guessed
do you guys dash do you door dash
I've done it like a couple times for some reason
I have a I have a like a
emotional adversity to all of it
I don't I want to go get my own food.
I like getting.
I like picking it up.
Yeah, I like just go.
I don't know.
And I also feel like it's going to be ruined.
What are you, not like weed at the bottom of your bag, Dan?
It's going to be ruined or it's going to be wrong or it's going to be cold.
I know people who will door dash like ice cream.
Yeah.
And I'm like, you are crazy.
I mean, that's how much that's like you're doing it because you're like i want the
convenience you're in your pajamas you're like i don't want to put clothes on and go so we've done
it my my wife has done it when like i'm not in town and she doesn't yeah i just want to like
sure take a kid out to a store to come back one door dash that's a single parents it's a godsend
my wife will do it just because she will literally spend half of what she would spend if she went to the store.
She's very much like a shiny object.
Oh, that's cool.
Oh, that's cool.
You've made it a finite number of things that can come.
That's it.
There's no emotion with it.
It's not like the, oh, I'd like to have that.
Oh, I didn't know that thing existed.
It just takes the emotion out of shopping.
Why aren't we doing that angle?
All right, so yours is that okay also i'll just say my favorite salad place
it's one of those like conveyor belt deals like you or you know assembly line deals um also like
chipotle if you if you're not there ordering it in front of them you are going to get they're
going to screw it's just going to be barely any chicken you know what i mean like you need
someone watching the person daniel likes to be the one who's like uh yeah you know you can go crazy with the chicken
yeah yeah yeah i'm not gonna go nuts with the guac you can go nuts with the guac like it's just
all right i'm not gonna stop you i was scared at first but then again i wasn't very surprised
said the man who ordered his dinner from doordash why wouldn't you be surprised and what are you
scared of fl Flushing.
Will I die if I touch this weed?
I'm going to get so high, I won't be able to know who I am. I'm getting a contact high.
He snapped the photo where he found a fork and a bag filled with marijuana.
Okay.
It's just weed.
In a plastic bag, though, right?
It kind of looks like Chipotle.
Paper bag, I think.
I picture him watching Reefer Madness and having to pause it to answer the door oh my god yeah yeah well that's when you like you
know how like we all in this to not to go back to your podcast where like you mentioned something
and all of a sudden you get like 20 ads of it on your phone and you're like the phone is listening
it knows it is you're watching reefer madison then the weed comes you're like the tv i did this
did this start with the driver he said or did this start in the restaurant that I did this. Did this start with the driver? He said, or did this start in the
restaurant that I ordered this from? Who cares?
Who cares? Just be happy you got free weed.
Thank you. Agreed. Or
give it back to the Columbus division. A police
spokesperson said authorities are
working to find out more information from
those who you're in a college town.
Who are we?
Authorities.
If you want the weed, you smoke it.
If you don't trust the weed, you throw it away.
And we should not know that this happened at all.
It's not a problem.
If you're in a college town like Columbus, Ohio,
and you are calling the cops because there's weed in your bag,
you are one of the most insufferable people in that college.
You hate the kids.
You hate the school.
You hate the game day.
You live here, dude.
Go move somewhere else.
The music's too loud.
You know where the music's too loud?
At the stadium.
I can hear it all the way over here.
Exactly.
I hope the cops weren't taking this seriously.
I hope it was just like, yeah, yeah, hold on.
Let me talk to our best detective and then just click.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then just keep, I don't know why you hung up on.
If I were on the phone and the cop who got this phone call,
I'd be like, hey, can we pull those three people off that murder that they're investigating?
Yeah.
Somebody got weed in their bag.
Somebody got weeded.
Somebody got weeded.
If it's a slow night at the police station, how, and if I was a cop, just for fun, I would
bring full SWAT to this.
Surround his house with so many cars.
I'd kick the door down.
Oh, you know what else I'd do?
I'd kick the door down and
i'd like you use the the metal thing that rams it in or i'd be like are you high right now sir
no like well that's what somebody was i would say sound high we're gonna have to bring you down
and like do like the sounds pretty pretty high do the weed test just put a little piece of paper
on his tongue and like after that just be like
Sir we just gave you LSD to make sure
That you weren't
Counteract the weed
The man who received
Oh my god I just love to just harass
And like show up and like you know
We're gonna run some tests
Pinch his nipples
And he's like what did I do sir
I didn't do anything I'm just talking to you sir
How high are you?
We're just getting readings on the meter.
Weird.
The man who received the order said the driver left,
then came back and asked for the bag of marijuana.
He would give me my money back and refund my order
if I gave him the entire bag back,
because he claimed that it was medicine in the bag
for his friend that was to be used for medical reasons.
He said medicinal marijuana.
Are you saying medicine for medical reasons? Which is how you know the driver is lying full of shit he's just trying to get it
back but also give him his weed yeah why are you calling yeah this makes i mean i hate this guy
more right you're such a dick to like i come like hey man can i get the weed back and he's like no
it's like i'll i'll refund you i'll tell them like it's all free everyone hated this guy in high school yes i'll pay for your order still like okay if you're this guy and you got the weed and the guy hey can i have my
weed back i will pay for your order yeah wouldn't you be like i love this i got my food for free
tonight what a great simple mistake what an amazing day right america what a country thank
you right but how high do you have to be to put your weed at the bottom of someone else's order i don't know i've had times where i've lost the parking ticket into
a garage and i don't know how between getting it and getting out of my car i don't know where this
where is this so he could have like oh let me throw it like he didn't realize what bag he was
putting it in that's possible but either way just give give his weed back the man told the driver he could not give him the
bag back then he called police and submitted a complaint to doordash he's like even if i'm
doordash i'm like cool click ethically i i can't give you your drugs i can't give you your hard
drugs by the way at doordash you call doordash they're like we're all high right now yeah so
send that weed over here bro right uh a door dash representative called
and emailed the man to discuss the incident we do not condone this type of action and therefore
have what kind of weed was it let me know removing the person from our platform so now you got the
guy fired oh my god the email from the dasher will no longer be able to deliver future orders
on door dash this is awful i hate this guy. DoorDash.
Guess who's going to start work for Grubhub.
Set ABC6, Fox 28, this statement.
What happened is not acceptable,
and we have removed the Dasher from our platform.
We appreciate the customer for reporting the incident.
No, you don't.
I don't appreciate it.
That's just optics.
Yeah.
But it's bad optics for that industry. The guy who gets the bag.
True.
We still haven't heard of him.
What if you're someone who's high and orders DoorDash all the time?
I'd be like,
I'm not supporting DoorDash.
I'm going to go Postmates because they don't support the weed guy.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Yeah,
that's true.
Yeah.
It could be bad.
It's like if you're in a comedy club and people are talking and the club
doesn't do anything about it because they're like,
I don't,
we don't want to throw that group out.
What about the person who drove four hours to see you?
And they're sitting behind the person who's talking.
And then the comics who don't want to come back to your club because
they don't handle the room there are consequences i didn't think about it dan here's a little
conspiracy for you in this this is what the uh moron who got the bag delivered to him said it's
scary because i'm a health care worker which to me means he's in filing and i see how this affects
people every day weed weed the man who received The man who received the delivery said, I even have a close friend.
Oh, my God.
I have a close friend whose nephew actually passed away due to smoking marijuana that was laced by fentanyl.
So fentanyl killed him.
You can't put fentanyl.
Exactly.
First of all, so fentanyl killed him.
Also, you have a close friend who's nephew?
No.
You read on Facebook.
That's right.
And it's probably an urban legend.
Yeah, because you read it.
How do you get fentanyl in weed?
Who is putting fentanyl in weed?
Fentanyl.
How?
Fucking moron.
I mean, they would have to dust it on there.
They would have to dust it and you'd be like a psychopath.
Why would a person do that?
Yeah.
Not any drug dealer that wants to make money.
I'll tell you that.
No, I mean, they mix it into heroin and coke and stuff like that because a tiny bit goes
a long way.
A very long way.
It's an economic thing.
Yes.
But only a serial killer is just lacing it on me and not tell people.
Right, right.
Just for funsies.
Like the guy who killed Mac Miller, he was charged with murder because of the amount
of, like, Mac Miller was not trying to kill himself.
No.
He was not, like, and they also, like, like the good liars those dudes who do like all the tic tacs they were
talking to these people that were like well they're putting fentanyl on the kids candy
and they just broke they just kept asking them questions like kids candy drug dealers don't they
tend to want to sell drugs rather than just give it away well they're putting it in that to kill
kids why would the drug dealers want to kill kids and have a trace back to that i actually just researched that halloween
urban urban legend thank you there have been no kids poisoned by candy uh from a stranger right
there was a there was a dad in texas who poisoned his own kids candy because he was a maniac right
trying to like make life insurance some horrible thing. But the whole thing about you go to a stranger's house and you get their poison candy, nope.
Nope.
Never happened.
Anybody who has a friend's nephew is like.
You don't know this person.
Friend's nephew.
Oh, I would start asking right away.
I'd be like, what's that nephew's name?
And how old were they?
Where did this happen?
These kind of stories are why I am so pro-drug legalization, like all of the drugs.
Because people are going to use them. So can you at least give them access to clean drugs regulation yep regulate
them and have them have them because there's a thing you can test for like all this stuff and
make sure there's a law and order taught me that there's a drug overseas for people like trying to
get off meth and everything it's like the greatest drug ever. But it can't, something about there's no patent on it or whatever.
I don't know what it is.
It's expired.
So it can't be, no money can be made off of it.
So they won't allow it in the United States because none of the pharmaceutical companies
I know the pharmaceutical stuff, it's so insane.
We're like, well, yeah, they made fentanyl.
Fentanyl is a synthetic drug.
It's like the whole heroin epidemic.
It's like, no, it's not heroin.
Well, I mean, opioid, but it's like, it's fentanyl.
You know, most folk over it.
It's fentanyl is what my wife got when she was pregnant.
They gave her fentanyl when she was pregnant.
Yeah.
Yes.
Like to help her with the pain.
You can get strips.
Sorry.
You can't get strips.
Just a PSA.
You can get them on Amazon.
Fentanyl test strips.
Where if you're going to do that stuff.
I was at a comedy festival and they had fentanyl test strips that they they just gave around like kind bars because yes they gave them right alongside kind bars
because they knew so many people were gonna be doing coke and stuff like that and it's a party
scene that they're like hey just test it really quick my son's in college it's like do i want him
doing all of that stuff no but i can't stop him right so i'm actually dropping off uh fentanyl
test strips for him i'm like you're gonna show him how to use them how do you have to how do you use a fentanyl tester i'm gonna have to learn because
there you go i don't know i have the strips but i have to watch the tutorial before i explain it
yes i don't even know i mean you test put a little bit on the weed i think that's like the best thing
right with i as a person who has no children but like teaching your kid risk assessments yep
of like do the right things i can't control what you're going to do. I'd like to influence how you evaluate what you do.
Yep.
And if you give them lots of responsibilities around a certain drug that will
turn them off from doing,
we'll be right back with more.
We'll be like,
Hey,
well,
I also like,
I do stuff.
I like,
like whatever,
like,
and I don't hide it from my kids.
And I've also told them,
I'm like,
if you're going to do it,
if I can't stop you,
please try it with me.
We're at least you're in a controlled environment.
It's safe.
That also makes them not want to do it because now it's a dad drug.
What are they rebelling against?
Oh, exactly.
They're like acid.
That's a dad drug.
My dad does that.
It's lame.
Boo.
Well, too bad for that.
Too bad for that friend's second cousin's nephew's daughter.
Oh, God.
Okay.
The man who received the unwanted side of marijuana said he's worried about what could
have happened if the order ended up in the wrong hands what okay that could be said of a fork that
could be said of a car you know like anywhere okay yeah i think about the kids i think about
the kids she said shut up i have a nephew so now it's his nephew oh is it your nephew i have a
nephew you don't have kids okay you have a no one wants to be your partner to give you a kid.
Look at this.
I hope Eddie can't even keep his story straight.
I think about the kids, he said.
I have a nephew.
I think about my coworker.
He has granddaughters and grandsons.
I thought it was your coworkers.
No, it was your Facebook friend's nephew who died, passed away of weed.
I literally want to hold this guy down and force him to do acid.
Just dose him so hard. Let's see what comes up man let's see what comes up i bet you're a better person afterwards or maybe we can change your brain chemistry and you won't do
this just like max miller siben psilocybin yeah psilocybin micro dose him for like a month and
see if we can turn him into a better person. We'll blow some DMT in his face.
Now he's feeling hesitant about
ordering dinner to be delivered
ever again. Good.
He's so dramatic.
So when I hear a statement like
that, I'm like, what do you want DoorDash
to give you? Right? Because that's the
type of statement. Confidence?
I know.
He wants them to come in like sit down with him during the meal yeah kind of rub his back yes you know maybe take a bite first so we can wait 10 minutes
that's what food testers were talking in when the meal's over tell him everything's gonna be
i really feel like i question everything now. And I just want certain companies like DoorDash or Grubhub or others.
I just want to question what kind of background checks they're taking for their employees.
Shut up.
This guy has been talking for too long.
I told you.
Dan, I hate him.
I hate this guy.
Is he trying to get a lawsuit going for emotional distress?
Is he trying to run for office?
I don't even think it's that calculated.
I think he's just a loser. I think he's, so I think he's one of those people who doesn't know if what he did or the
stance he took was right.
And so he just keeps trying to make this case to himself,
but out to the public.
Or he has a total blind spot when it comes to other people's reactions to
his behavior.
He's like,
I just was trying to,
I'm doing the right thing.
It's like,
no,
the right thing is not the right thing for the situation.
Like you got to read the room.
Yeah.
There are so like,
I feel like fewer people know how to read the room.
Right.
And for anybody who's like,
there could have been fentanyl in there.
I go,
well,
yeah.
Also,
it could have been that that door dash driver,
uh,
is a Vietnam veteran that uses that weed for his post-traumatic stress disorder.
So as much as you would like to believe in one, you have to equally believe in the other if we're just going down any possibility.
Or that he's not getting paid enough, that he's got to sell this weed as another way to supplement his income.
To people who need it.
Yes.
He has arthritis, anxiety, so many different things.
Yeah, we can go down anything you want to go down, right?
And all the guy ever had to do was just give the guy his weed back.
Nope.
I hope this guy works with at least one person
who just on a regular basis
is like, hey, Todd, hey, Todd,
shut the fuck up.
And then just like walks off.
Just like is constantly
just shutting him down.
Oh, Todd, did you get that memo
about you shutting the fuck up?
Exactly.
Do you want me to resend it?
I'll put it to the top of your chain.
So let me move it up.
So he questions everything.
He wants to know
what kind of checks they're doing
and do they really know
the people who are working for them?
Maybe not.
Because, I mean, clearly, this one fell through the cracks.
OK.
Fell through the cracks.
According to DoorDash's website, the company runs motor vehicle and criminal background
checks on all its drivers.
Great.
That's it.
That's all you need.
The police said this is the first time they've heard of drugs being delivered in a bag of
delivered food.
Well, you guys are idiots, too, because this happens all the time.
It happens all the time.
Yeah.
That's it.
Story number one.
Story number one.
Down the books. Dan Cummins is with us we'll uh when we come back we're
going to talk about uh your special you're going to talk about uh your podcast time suck which is
awesome and uh we'll let people know uh dan you want to go first yeah yeah we'll let you know
what you have going on uh this is dumb people town with dan cummins we'll be right back hey
guys welcome back to the show before we get into all the stuff that Dan Cummins has going on, Daniel, let us know what's cooking with you and how people can see it.
My movie, Wine Club.
It's my movie.
I'm the lead.
I'm so glad to have been a part of it and get to talk about it now.
You should go and check it out.
Steve Little from Eastbound and Down is one of my co-stars.
Awesome.
And Taylor Ortega plays my wife.
It's as much her movie as it is mine.
She's amazing. so check that movie
out um i think the release date if it hasn't been announced yet it'll be announced soon
it's wine club movie on instagram great uh go to danielvankirk.com i'll be at cap city comedy
club on december 14th if this is around then otherwise i have more dates for the rose gold tour
coming out um soon yeah leading up to the release of the release of the special which you
just shot in chicago which is awesome i'm so psyched for you uh dan cummins you have a podcast
called time suck which is amazing if you like this i feel like you do kind of explore and i'm sure
much more as we kind of went into at the very beginning explore and debunk yes conspiracy
theories with a humorous, with comedy.
I mean, I just try to apply like critical thinking and just a sense of reasonableness to whatever topic I'm exploring.
And so there's a lot of reactionary statements of like, why would you ever do this?
Yeah.
What is happening here? Yeah.
Which, and then the flip side is that now we live at a time where you just using reason to debunk these things elicits a reaction from a certain group
of people who are like why would you do this right why would you try yeah if you ever ask
yourself who dan cummins is really being paid oh my god i get that you get that a lot also isn't
a lot of conspiracy theories uh part of just tribe mentality because once you say you believe
a thing some other group believes they're so welcoming to bring you into
the fold yeah that people really find their tribe under this false pretense because once you just
say oh i think that too yeah instantly this the the welcomeness and the and the the camaraderie
or the fellowship between those people becomes as uh as if not more important than whatever it is they've said they
believe in right yeah and it gives people a boogeyman to blame for all their problems which
is the appeal of that tribe where it's like it's not it's not my fault it's not a uh some negative
character traits or a lack of hustle that has me in this space where i'm at in life and not where
i want to be it's because of the illuminati it's because of these evil forces that are you know conspiring against me you know what's so sad actually on
that 90 of all conspiracies are anti-semitic i swear to god oh yeah they go back to the
protocols of the elders of zion which was russian propaganda which is meeting notes in quotes for
meetings that never happened.
And it's like the way these modern conspiracies are,
they,
their sources are just older piles of shit,
just nonsense.
That's right.
And it's like,
it just goes back and back and it's really frustrating,
really frustrating.
It's like,
and a lot of people don't even see that.
So I love that you're doing this because when you started doing this podcast,
it,
and it became extraordinarily popular.
It was just a fascinating thing to know that these conspiracy theories existed.
The crazy thing about it, like a marriage or anything, it has grown.
It's evolved.
It is something that I think conspiracies have come to the mainstream.
Right.
So I think your podcast is more important than ever to listen to.
You know, it's like, and we do, you know, true crime and other things too, but things sure but i hit that same message that i do with the conspiracies and it's funny it's like i
started getting kind of depressed about i don't know a year ago yeah where i was like i should
just give up like like it's this is pointless i'm just yelling to the void but then it's like
no you're right it's like it is more important now because if there aren't more people debunking
these things it's just going to get worse and worse.
Confront it with the truth.
Yeah.
I love it.
And do it in a funny way, which you're a funny guy.
Oh, thanks.
And that's where I got a little off of the path for a while there
because it made me so angry that I started getting more heavy handed
with my delivery.
And I'm like, nope, that just pushes people away.
The people who are really gone, we're not going to get them back.
But there are those people in the middle that I have gotten emails where it's like you know one guy actually uh came
to this little summer camp we had and he was like thanked me he was like i was full in on that kind
of stuff wow and a friend recommended one of your podcasts wow and i started to feel a little silly
and i started to look at it in a different way and he did pull out of it and i'm like that stuff's
inspiring save one person you better the world yeah yeah and it of it and i'm like that stuff's inspiring save one person
you better the world yeah yeah and it's like and i don't want to see our you know culture just
collapse i mean it does truly scare me that we have people in major political offices who i mean
i don't think they believe it oftentimes i think they just know it's a power grab and how soulless
audience yeah that's almost worse it is it is it's to talk
about how real dark well you saw i mean you saw in a lot of and i don't want to get political
that's not get political but you did see in a lot of people who were like on-air personalities
pushing one narrative totally off air being like i don't believe this shit you're like
no you're you're making it worse you're you're digging people deeper into those people buy
buy t-shirts.
They tune in.
It's like they know what they're doing.
And they need it more than anything.
Let's talk about your special, too, because you have a new stand-up special.
So let's hear it.
Let's tell people about it, where they can get it, all that stuff.
Yeah, it just did a YouTube release.
Filmed it at the Parkway Theater in Minneapolis.
Awesome theater.
So fun.
And they redid it for the shoot.
I guess we did.
So it looks really cool and
theater yeah it is it is super fun i had done that like 10 000 laughs comedy festival a few
years before yeah i just did it did a show so fun and did a show there and i was like oh this is a
really it's intimate but it's still uh technically a 300 seats yeah it's a small theater and it just
has a really good acoustics yeah and it was it was so fun. It was so fun.
Did all your people come out?
I mean, yeah.
Yeah.
So the podcast crowd came out.
It was funny.
You know, I make fun of the left and the right for like the first half an hour, especially
then I just kind of get into weird random stories.
Yeah.
And I had just been in Austin, actually the same club that you're coming up at the week
before or two weeks before and it was funny where the jokes
that skewered the right got you know a little more subdued response in austin and the jokes
that skewered the left huge raucous huge exact opposite of minneapolis oh yeah it was amazing
yeah yeah if you can need but i mean they still laughed at both sure but it was funny just the
premises yeah we're like, this is my ideology.
Yeah.
That's so funny.

Near West 7th Avenue and Main Street in the town of Springfield, according to police.
Which, by the way, we should mention, we just came back from Springfield, Missouri, where we did the Blue Room.
Have you ever done the Blue Room?
That's such a fun town. Unbelievable room.
Unbelievable town.
Such nice owners of that club.
Chris and Molly are the coolest.
Daniel, you should be doing this.
That's a good problem.
And we'll be back every year to the people of Springfield who came out to see us.
Driver attempted to switch places with his dog, which was in the passenger seat of a Dodge Challenger.
That was a challenge of what he tried to do.
A process.
They wrote that?
A process that Clip Phil watched as he walked towards the car.
Oh, so he wasn't even.
No.
You get out of there.
Put the seatbelt on.
I want you to get a ticket for not wearing
a seat you know he climbed in the back probably here boy here boy put your paws on the wheel
the first thing is is the clip fell officer clip fell watch the whole i know you can't do it in
front of the cops so the suspect who had clear signs of intoxication you know in his brain he
was like we're gonna i'm gonna make this happen right here. Checkmate. Got out of the passenger side of the car and told the chief that he wasn't the one driving.
I tried to stop him.
Thank you so much, officer.
He was not listening.
I was too drunk.
I made the right decision.
He put weed in his Gainesburgers.
I don't think he wants to be here.
When Cliff fell ass, whether he'd be drinking.
Are we all picturing a lab?
Oh, yeah.
I was trying to think.
For some reason, I had a retriever stuck in my head.
Yeah, like that.
Yeah.
It says what it is.
It's not like a collie.
No, because he needs to be big enough to mimic the act of driving.
It's like a brown lamb.
Remember we did this story with Kyle Kinane where there was a man who was dressed as a dog.
Who made himself look like a dog.
Oh, yeah.
He was a collie.
Was it a collie or a dog?
Yeah, yeah.
It was like a lassie. Oh, he was like a lassie dog. And it looked exactly like a dog. Oh, yeah. He was a collie. Was it a collie? Yeah, yeah. It was like a lassie.
Oh, he was like a lassie dog.
And it looked exactly like a dog.
So you could say, this is my friend.
This is Gordon.
I would love it if it was like a little Boston Terrier,
like a tiny little dog.
Barely on the bottom of the world.
Can't reach the bottom.
Like a corgi.
Has to stretch to reach the bottom.
We can't see.
You just see like a little.
I'm going to say this next next sentence and you'll be like
this is the greatest
reaction to a question
ever and when this happened
clip fell and when clip fell asked
whether the man had been drinking the
man tried to run away
sir have you been drinking I'll take
that as a yes I love like plan
a is see if I can convince him that the dog was driving.
Plan B is plan B, run.
Just go.
Just go.
Suspect's getaway attempt was cut short after how many yards from the car?
Oh, that's, I mean, this is short, right?
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Ten.
Ten yards?
What do you think?
No more than ten yards.
Forty.
Okay.
Three yards.
Yeah, about 10 feet.
Nine feet. How far does the taser
reach? Get your answers
in town.
And he fell twice.
The officer was like, I'm just going to see how far he gets.
Okay, so the dog's in the front seat
and he runs away when he asked him, have you been
drinking? So after he told him that the dog was
driving, his flip-flop broke 20 yards from the car okay farther than i would yeah 60 when
is every minute a man and a woman were sober and they were in the back seat of the car oh my god
how weird for that why didn't you try and switch with another person exactly why is a drunk guy
and a dog in the front and then two sober sober people in the back. Those are the dumbest people of all in this whole story.
I would love if it's an Uber trip.
If you're sober, you're like, dude, let me drive.
You can't drive.
That's wild.
The sober people are the dumbest people in this whole story.
I would agree 100%.
It's also, it's a two-door car.
Unless they called this guy and he's their Uber.
Yeah, that's what he was saying that's
right okay a man woman's over the back seat police say they were later found found out the trio were
driving from las animas to pueblo and got lost in springfield which is out of bar all right so for
the record springfield is uh southeast of las animas while pueblo is to the west the drivers
later found to have two active warrants out in pueblo according to springfield police he was medically cleared at a hospital and then booked
into the bacca county jail for his warrants and on suspicion of driving under the influence
driving while ability impaired driving under suspension speeding and resisting arrest and
throwing his dog under the bus i agree old asked the dog the other two occupants of the vehicle
took the pup along with the vehicle back to Pueblo.
There you go.
And neutered him that night.
I wanted to imagine the story ends with the dog driving the couple home.
Yeah, the dog drove the couple home while they were having sex in the back seat.
Dog's like, what'd he say?
He's like, he said he's taking us home.
That's the dumbest part of that story is two sober people in the back.
I mean, there's so many dumb parts of that story.
He's like, were you drinking, sir?
Runs away.
Move the dog in there.
Were you drinking, sir?
Runs away.
And then there's two sober people in the back seat.
All right, Jay, give us a little taste of what we're going to get for segment three.
You got somebody pretending to be a cop and it doesn't work out.
Nope.
At least he wasn't pretending to be a dog.
This is Dumb People Town.

We'll tell you what we have going on on the other side of this break.
Stick around. Make us down. There's more Dumb People Town. Dan Cummins is with us. We'll tell you what we have going on on the other side of this break.

So you're going to love this. You're going to love it. Cause otherwise it the thing that they can punish you. So you're going to love this.
You're going to love this.
Right.
Because otherwise it would just be trespassing.
Right.
Right.
You just,
you just trespass in a weird way.
Also,
like if you tried to be a baker to get in there.
That's what I'm saying.
I love that.
Just a ridiculous costume that doesn't fit.
Really?
I will say,
if you rolled up to any person getting paid fucking $11 an hour to barcode scan.
And you're in a full on crazy, like, like a Muppet chef's costume.
And you were like, I work, I'm, I have to work the cut, the carving station.
They'd be like, okay, go ahead.
So you have, I don't know why we always dress the carving station people up like this.
Really tall hat.
They would let you in.
Why is the hat so tall at a carving station people up like this really tall hat they would let you in like why is the hat so tall at a carving station do they think that like for somehow some way if it's not that tall like
people have carved it and dan you've seen the dan and daniel you guys i'm guessing you've seen that
like video from like the training video like how to talk to people oh my god the guy at the carving
station of a thing
oh yeah he's like and it's just him saying a bunch of conversation starters for the car
as he's carving weird weather nice weather huh is this satirical or real no it was real
from a training video about how these employees should like start conversations at the
how's the weather you have to teach someone that. As he's carving. That's an interesting dress.
Yeah.
It's been too long since I was at a carving station.
I mean.
I always feel like I'm having a pretty damn good day if I've ended up at a carving station.
Didn't I have a carving something at Leah's, at my son's bar mitzvah?
No.
We had other stations.
No, that was great food though.
Carving station at home?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Who's that?
That's our carving station. go over and he'll cut
you some also if you want to have a big hat no he did you want to have a private conversation
in your somewhere like meet me at the carving station got some information in front of this guy
court documents read that steven allegedly wore a police canine vest
he wanted to be part of the canine unit.
I would love if he brought a German shepherd, too.
Like, really committed.
And then said to people, don't pet him.
He's working.
He's working.
He's on the clock.
He's working.
So he claimed to be working security as a police officer.
In his mind, Daniel, he thinks this is going to work.
There's no way this does work. I'm going walk right up there i have the best with the intention of seeing
megan the stallion sold our performance you have to have a dog though that if you have the dog
they probably weird to have that outfit and not a dog true that's your first red flag uh-huh yeah
attorney said stevenson is actually a barber in houston has no qualifications as any type of
officer i mean but could have showed up as the barber.
Could have showed up as the barber and people would have been like, get him in.
Although he was wearing a police canine
vest, he reportedly did not have a dog with him
on party Tuesday.
First rule of police canine
dog impersonation. You gotta have a dog.
I'm picturing like a weird
weekend at Bernie's. He has like a
stuffed animal or
something. Like maybe he's tucked to a dead like a stuffed animal or something like like maybe
stuck to a skateboard or something that he's just like pulling down next to him you've seen those
haven't you like the guy's got like a giant stuffed animal dog yeah he's walking and he just
walks by someone he's like and the person's like yeah people lose their mind lose their money
appropriately so yes probably it's crazy the guy i'm not expecting it it will freak but but he could
he also said my dog's in there i need to get my dog oh maybe my dog someone took my dog my dog
we have a real we have a real situation yeah we have a real situation is a great way to come we
have a real just we have a real situation so they're like sir what are you doing we have a
real situation my dog i'm off yeah. I need you to stand down.
My dog is in there, and I need to go in and get him.
Time is of the essence.
Time is of the essence.
This is another great phrase to like, guys, we're losing seconds here.
If we're arguing, if we're going to sit around and debate this, the situation is only going to get worse.
You're on a need-to-know.
You're on a need-to-know basis, and right now, you need to know that I need to be in there.
Just throwing out these random, like, it's above your pay grade. It's above your pay grade. need to know basis and right now you don't need to know that i need to be in there uh just throwing
out these random like it's above your pay grade it's above your pay grade right it's above my pay
grade i gotta get in there we're losing light on this one i gotta my my hands are tied on this
you think i want to be here
dan that's such a good thing to say for a guy trying to sneak into a concert
i just want to get home to my wife i don't know what let me just do this so i can get out of here Dan, that's such a good thing to say for a guy trying to sneak into a concert.
I just want to get home to my wife.
I don't know what.
Let me just do this so I can get out of here.
Let me just do this so I can get out of here and go home.
I got a boss just like you.
I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers.
And also, make them go with you.
I'm actually going to need you to come with me.
No, I can't leave. I really can't.
Okay, fine.
Well, then I'll be right back.
Boom. See you at the end of the concert. I'll leave you my walkie-talkie so you know I'm coming back. I really can't. I'll be like, okay, well. Okay, fine. Well, then I'll be right back. Yeah. Boom.
See you at the end of the concert.
I'll leave you my walkie-talkie so you know I'm coming back.
Leave him walkie.
All right.
On Monday, the judge granted Stevenson, who has no previous record.
So that's what we're dealing with here.
Someone who is not.
There are some people who can pull this stuff off because they just know how to pull these
things off because they do it all the time.
This is a first foray into this world.
He watched a movie or something.
Yeah.
And then it's like, I could do that.
Yeah.
Or he got inspired by it.
That's right.
How am I going to get in there?
I'm going to the Megan Thee Stallion concert.
How much was the bond for this guy?
$1,500?
$5K.
$800.
You're going to lose your minds
when you find out that it's a $20,000 bond.
What?
Wow, it's so serious.
Oh, from a personating officer. Yeah.ating an officer court record shows stevenson bonded out
after his hearing okay megan the stallion is a fantastic draw big draw especially here in houston
but this is still a felony case yes you can't do it you cannot go and impersonate an officer to
get into a concert venue prosecutor matthew jackson told eyewitness News at Monday's hearing. The other problem about doing that
too is like, what if someone really needed help?
Right. Like you don't want the
responsibility. Like that's where it can get really bad.
You know what I'm saying? Like if he's in there
and something happens. Yes.
This is a movie. Officer. Isn't that fake cops?
Isn't that a movie? Fake cops. Oh, let's
be cops. Let's be cops. That's another reason you don't
want to be a cop. You don't want the responsibility
either. Like, can you imagine most cops don responsibility either like he actually gets in he's like so over his head right then a fight
breaks out and then he has to stay in character yeah and now he handcuffs somebody right and then
he's like i have no idea where do i just stay quiet he just walks him into the bathroom and
then just maybe puts him in a stall just stay here for a little bit think about what you did
just think about what you did here Stay here until after the encore.
This is your Miranda Lambert rights.
He has no idea.
I'm going to read you your Lambert rights.
What?
The Miranda Lambert. Is that it?
Oh, God.
That's it.
There you go.
That's the story of craziness.
What a great.
This is such a fun episode.
It's just a guy trying to get a dog to be the driver.
A guy trying to impersonate it.
Everybody's trying to do something else.
