Starting point is 00:00:00 Skypains Avenue Hey townies, welcome to another episode of Dumb People Town. Population you. Population you. Hampton you. Hampton you. How are yunt. Hampton yunt. How are you buddy? Hi. Hello. Am I the mayor? You are the mayor of this town. You are the mayor of this town. A stalwart of this town. Well you are a welcome guest and someone who... One of eight. Is this your third, fourth appearance? You've been on the work fit. Yeah, I mean I'm a regular. You're a regular? I'm definitely a regular.
Starting point is 00:01:05 I love it when you're here. I've hosted the SNL here. We've watched your career blossom in so many ways. So we came to DC, and I don't know who connected us with you originally. Jonah? It was maybe Jonah, but it was at the original. Hill? Arlington Cinema and Draft House.
Starting point is 00:01:23 We watched you do stand-up, and we were like, holy shit, this kid, and you were just a kid. It's so goddamn funny. And life is a nightmare. That is so good. Teenage dirtbag baby. That was a teenage dirtbag. Now we're syncing up.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Now you're there. All right, and we watched you grow. You guys were like gods. We were, well, thank you. We were babies. We were still young, too. We were sales babies. I think we were in our 30s, you were probably on 20, 20,
Starting point is 00:01:50 you were very young, 20, 21. Yeah, I was in my early 20s. So we watched you develop in comedy and then come here and do all the great things you're doing, including Mystery Science Theater 3000, which you stepped into an iconic role, Crow T. Robot. And honestly, I was really happy you guys reached out, and I immediately was like,
Starting point is 00:02:12 these are the nicest, best guys that I've known in town for years, and you've just been consistently reaching out to just say, hey, what's up? What's up, dude? We love you. What's going on? People don't really do that a lot. They don't.
Starting point is 00:02:22 You know who sends me email? It's a beautiful thing. You know who sends me, I gotta shout this out. You know who sends me an email? It's a beautiful thing. You know who sends me an email? I got to shout this out. You know who sends me an email, and I'm sure you guys all know him, and sends us an email every month, and I love just responding because it has nothing to do with just, but it's just, hi, Mike Kaplan. Oh, yeah? Mike Kaplan sends me an email, and I'm like, we just get into a great discussion.
Starting point is 00:02:38 It's a puzzle. Thank you. It's a word puzzle. It's a crazy word puzzle, and it goes down rabbit holes, clipped out magazines. Do you think I could say this many words in a minute? Yes, you can. And can I make that a palindrome, and can that be a bit? He's a lovely guy.
Starting point is 00:02:53 So Mike is an example of the world getting smarter. The truth is, in all the years that we've known you, the world's gotten dumber. From the point that we met you in D.C. all those years ago until now, the world is a dumber world. And we have stories to prove it, and we try and fight back with comedy. And by the way, new way of doing the show. You haven't seen it this way.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Each of us bring a story. So Dan's got the first one, and then I've got the second one. I've got the third one. All you gotta do is sit back and snipe. Be you. Be you, Hampty. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:03:16 Ready? Yes. I'm literally trying to not sneeze right now. Okay. This was sent in by, we'll see how I do. Jeremy Helwig, at Jeremy Hellwig.
Starting point is 00:03:26 So Hellwig and the Angry Inch was one of my favorite Broadway shows. Is that right? It was James Cameron Mitchell. It was. Mitch Hellwig. Mitch Hellwig, who was a great comic book. Here's the headline. A man stole a patrol car from a sheriff's station.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Then he responded to a 911 call. Dude, he just... He got it 911 call dude for the job that's like when you're that heckler you're just like you want to do it and they kill this would be like you want to come up here and do it, and then you do a Netflix special. You know what I mean? This is Guy the Rock. And another thing. A Colorado man. I don't know anything about my wife.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Made three arrests. A Colorado man. Started skimming evidence. I want your badge. We didn't give you one. That's why I want one. I bet an hour into it, he turned to no one because there's no one in his apartment. He's like, I'm getting too old for this shit.
Starting point is 00:04:30 He radios for backup. If he closes a cold case, you're kind of like, hey, you know what? And we wouldn't. King Kong ain't got nothing on me. He just doesn't touch me. got nothing on me like you know like in his regular street clothes he's like at like a huge conference he's like and we would not have been able to solve it without dna who is this guy uh you qualified to talk about this or no but i did stay at a holiday express last night a colorado man is being charged with multiple felonies after authorities said he broke into a sheriff's station.
Starting point is 00:05:06 So that's kind of on them. That's right. Right? The one place. Yeah. Your sheriff's station should not be broken. That's home base. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:13 So if they take your home base, they get your flag. He gets it from the source. He's getting it from the source, guys. He stole a patrol vehicle and later was the first to respond to a domestic violence call. My God, I love this guy. Thank God you're here. Wait, who are you? Citizen police.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Why are you not dressed in this? This is the active citizen policing that we've been asking for. Sure. Someone's stepping up. Neighborhood Watch 2.0. He shows up. He's like, I'm not even funded. You can't defund this, you son of a bitch.
Starting point is 00:05:44 He's Batman. He's self-proclaimed. Yeah, he is. One of the best lines in Fletch was in the line reading, and I know Chevy Chase is an asshole, but this is a great line. Oh, thank God. The police.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what he did. Can you imagine that? The cops show up. You're happy the cops are here, and he gets out, and he's like, are they? Yeah, I answered it. He's wearing the cuffs.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Yes, exactly. Why is he cuffing himself? He's the first to respond to an domestic violence call. Ready for the name? Jeremiah James Taylor. Which sounds like he's his own cover band. Good night. I loved him on Home Improvement.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Yes. JJT. James Taylor. I love James Taylor. You've got a friend. My kid's a cop. Jeremiah up on the roof. He broke into the roof.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Jeremiah James Taylor. Had seen fire and rain, both. Started the fire and the rain. Broke into a Park County Sheriff's substation near Lake George, about 30 miles west of Colorado Springs, the Teller County Sheriff's Office said in a news release. And they're probably, for weeks leading up to this, being like, you know, our community is such, we don't even have to lock the doors.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Right. You should probably do it. We don't have to lock the police station. Probably should. Authority said Taylor- It's Mayberry. Yeah. Leave it open.
Starting point is 00:06:57 It's common. Leave it open. Authority said Taylor burglarized the station and later stole a marked patrol vehicle at 3.27 a.m. A radio call. You get the keys, and you don't know where it is. So you just start bleeping, bleeping all around. Do they bleep?
Starting point is 00:07:13 I think the keys are in the car. You think? I think they're push starters. I think there'd have to be a checkout process. Let's figure this out, right? Yeah, I think they're like Playmobil or like Play School for kids. The floor is out in your room. You're a copmobil or Play School for kids. The floor is out and you're wrong. You're a cop now.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Pull over a black person. You're a cop now. At 3.27 a.m., a radio call for domestic violence in progress was broadcasted over the police radio system in Taylor County, which is just east of Park County. Taylor, in the patrol vehicle he stole, heard the call and was the first to arrive at the home in Florissant with the vehicle sirens on. Okay. So he knows how to turn them on.
Starting point is 00:07:50 I don't know how to turn them on. There's still a whoop, whoop, whoop. He went for it. Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. On some level, the cops are also pissed because he's responding before them. Yeah, this is why the cops hate vigilante. Hey're like, hey, dude, you want to steal? Fine, fine. We'll deal with that.
Starting point is 00:08:08 You don't got to be a one-upper. We get to those when we get to them. We're not mad you stole the car. We're mad you showed us up. Dispatchers told officers a Park County sheriff was on scene but appeared intoxicated, and Park County sheriff's vehicle was damaged. So they're like, somebody's here.
Starting point is 00:08:27 He's drunk. And the vehicle has a huge dent in it. And he's in plain clothes. When Teller County deputies arrived, they noticed the vehicle. I would hope so. It was halfway on the lawn. That's why they noticed it. It was over a mailbox.
Starting point is 00:08:40 And they told Jeremiah James Taylor to turn off the vehicle and step out. I hope that means he was just rocking. I mean, like, what if this is the thing that gets the husband and wife who are fighting to come together and laugh again? Hopefully. This thing brings them together. Stop fighting. You're never going to forget this story.
Starting point is 00:08:58 This is easily more important than your honeymoon. Me and the wife were fighting. I just hope they're having a patrol car mic off. Get out of the car. He's like, you get out of the car. You get back in your car. No, you get out.
Starting point is 00:09:12 You make me. What are you guys drinking? We're not drinking. We're cops. He starts calling in a McDonald's order. I'll have a West Coast cheese. What are we doing after this? So the cops notice the vehicle. Where's the party?
Starting point is 00:09:24 Tell them to step out. No, they pull up and he's like, I'm on this call. You guys get out of here. Get your own call. I'm here first. Leave. Authority said Taylor didn't listen to orders and then sped off onto a nearby highway. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:37 He's gone. He's like, fine. You want the call? I'll go to another call. You take it to the night. I'll leave. Fine. You don't want me here?
Starting point is 00:09:42 That's one. About two hours later. Two hours leave. Fine. You don't want me here? You don't want me here? That's one. About two hours later. Two hours later. Oh, my God. The vehicle was spotted, and a pursuit ensued with both Park County and Teller County officers. If you are someone who hates the cops, you are loving this pursuit more than anything. It is cops chasing a cop in a cop car. Taylor reached speeds.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Or it might just look like they're chasing someone who's really far away from them. Sure. Both cops are in the same direction chasing someone who's really far away from them. Sure. Both cops are in the same direction chasing someone who's really got the lead. Taylor reached speeds of how many miles per hour? How fast do you think
Starting point is 00:10:13 he got up to in the patrol car running from other patrol cars? I think he only did like a hundred. You know what I mean? Like he kept it safe.
Starting point is 00:10:22 I think these cop cars can go fast. Yeah, they can go like I'm going to say he went, like, 130. Okay. 160. Okay. No way he went once.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Taylor reached speeds of up to 110 miles per hour. That's like me. That's still fast, though. That's me trying to get to a gig. I've done that in Simi Valley, bitch. Yeah, baby. That's just here to Santa Monica. I just do that on the 118 for fun, bitches.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Officials said Taylor committed multiple traffic violations, including passing vehicles on double yellow lane dividers. Well, let's get them on that. They do. They bring them up on everything. That's why the one you guys saw where the guy used his blinker was cool. Well, I really drove over the double lines. We saw a car chase, a car going up Doheny.
Starting point is 00:11:02 No, it was a car. Car drive. We saw a car. You better get this right. Youy. No, it was a car. Car drive. We saw a car. You better get this right. You better get this right. On Santa Monica, heading east. All right? Fly past us.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Cop car come behind him, clearly in a car chase. Car turns, gets ready to turn on Doheny, turns on his blinker. Because they're not getting you for that. Yeah, they're not going to get me for that. They're not going to get me for that. I want to be courteous to the other people on the road. I use my blinker. That would be great if that was to try and
Starting point is 00:11:25 throw off the cobwebs. Blink left and then went right. He's passing cars in double yellow lane dividers. The vehicle later crashed. Of course. And Taylor attempted to flee into the woods. This guy's having a full night. Thank God the woods is there. I know.
Starting point is 00:11:41 A full night, guys. You get drunk. You break into a patrol. A 327 AM station. You steal a cruiser. You steal items and a cruiser. If I was a cop at that point, I'd blame it on leprechauns. Yeah. You went back into the forest. Case closed.
Starting point is 00:11:58 The leprechaun up in the tree. Authorities said a taser was deployed on Taylor, which is the shortest way to put, we caught up to him. Tased the shit out of him. Oh, yeah. Taylor was arrested. We stopped him. And taken to a nearby hospital for a self-inflicted knife wound.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Buddy, don't run with a knife. He ran a knife into him? I don't know. He's trying to arrest himself. I got this one. I got this perp. Right. Taylor is facing four felony counts, including aggravated motor vehicle theft, second-degree
Starting point is 00:12:23 burglary, vehicular eluding, and impersonating a peace officer, as well as other misdemeanor accounts. And the stabbing that's assault. Against himself. Which is also stabbing a police officer. That's right. Stabbing someone impersonating a police officer. They haven't even built the prison we're sending you to, pal.
Starting point is 00:12:42 One cell, one island. Wait, so am I still a cop? If he's a cop, who's really a cop still? Authorities are investigating possible crimes he committed before entering the sheriff's station. I tell you, full night for this one. Lake George substation is now secure. Good. Just so everybody knows.
Starting point is 00:12:59 We closed the fence, all right? And the investigation is underway. They locked the door. We are glad no one was injured and appreciate Teller County bringing in this suspect. Said Park County Sheriff Tom McGraw. So Tim McGraw, right? It's Tim, brother.

Starting point is 00:13:56 There are no streets and highways that are 55 anymore. If you told me I had to drive 55, I would be like, what accident are we right in front of? We're going so slow. You're busting that one down, Sammy. Does he still sing that in concert? He's a red rocker. He's a red rocker. I'm going to say 47. 47? We'll get out of here on this

Starting point is 00:21:41 You're seeing double right there. After visiting a budget clinic. That's hot. Honestly, that's really hot. After visiting a budget clinic for a cosmetic tattoo. Where are you going, Martha? Can you imagine that disapproval? That look of disapproval? Where are you going to? I'm going to budget.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Four eyebrows. Four eyebrows giving you the side eye. Also, imagine that look of surprise. She's really surprised. Well, two of them are surprised and two of them are pointed down. All right, after a woman visited a budget club. Budget Inc., where I get all my tattoos. Inc. that stinks.
Starting point is 00:22:13 I don't even like budget as a rental car company. I think that's a horrible name. Or dollar. Thrifty is also a horrible name. Thrifty Dollar. They might be fine, but on name alone, they just sound so horrible. Dirt, cheap, cheap bastard. They might be fine, but on name alone, they just sound so horrible.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Cheap bastard. A Thai woman was horrified after seeing that the tattoo artist had drawn two dark eyebrows above her natural brows. I wanted a Tasmanian devil on my butt. I wanted people to think that their eyes were... Okay, for an upcoming... Take a dolly. I asked for the Anthony Davis and I got this. Hey, my eyes are even further up here. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:22:45 My eyes are... For an upcoming... My eyebrows up here. Keep going. My eyebrows are here and here. Hey, my eyebrows are down here. All right. For an upcoming trip with friends, Nippipron Meeking, great name. I'm not going to tell you how old she is, visited a budget clinic

Starting point is 00:23:12 You went there, Doug. Oh, and you end the friendship, for sure. Yeah, you also do that. This is her reminiscing like this happened, like, decades ago in another life. I remember planning a trip with my friends and wanting new eyebrows to look pretty. Nip Hipperon was quoted as saying. A friend suggested a shop for me. After the procedure, she's no longer my friend.
Starting point is 00:23:30 No, I'm kidding. After the procedure, I looked in the mirror and was speechless. Imagine my surprise, surprise, surprise, surprise. I'm looking at my woman in the mirror. I'm seeing four eyebrows today. Okay, now I'm going to tell you this. I'm seeing for eyebrows today. Okay, now I'm going to tell you this.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Okay, Nipah Prawn paid 1,500 baht, B-A-H-T. Uh-huh. But we're going to... We're going to have to guess the conversion. You're going to guess the conversion of how much that is at the clinic located in Riyang Province. You say 60 bucks? 60 bucks. What do you think, Jay? So our favorite joke when we were traveling through Turkey back in the early 1990s was-
Starting point is 00:24:05 Like 750,000 Turkish lira was like- I'm like, I feel like a million Turkish lira. Which is like $80. All right. So I think how many baht? 15,000. 1,500 baht. 1,500 baht.
Starting point is 00:24:16 The A-H-T. He said 60. What do you say? I'm going to say like 140 baht. Daniel? $20. Okay. Get your answers in, Tony.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Nippur Prawn paid approximately $41. 140 bucks Daniel $20 okay get your answers in Tony Nipapran paid approximately $41 no it's not guys you can't do that first of all it's not that big
Starting point is 00:24:33 of a tattoo what is that eyebrow let's do the math I'm getting lost so when she looked in the mirror and the work was finished
Starting point is 00:24:40 she discovered the two dark arches inked above her natural brows following her complaint dark arches the story behind McDonald natural brows. Following her complaint. Dark arches, the story behind McDonald's. McDonald's, how do you mess this up? I want to teach you how to work in the dark arches.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Honest to God, don't you guys think with one day of training as a tattoo artist, you could do better than this person? I'm not saying they'd look good, but there'd only be two, right? Yeah, this is the last day. When I tell you their response and what happened afterwards, you're like, everything about this
Starting point is 00:25:12 is a Dumb People Town story, and then something makes it even more of a Dumb People Town story. Following her complaint, the tattoo artist promised to remove the botched eyebrows. How? The clinic, however, suddenly closed down the next day, and Nipa was unable to contact the just come meet me here tomorrow where tomorrow but you gave me these wooden nickels to use
Starting point is 00:25:31 said she felt so insecure that she hid away at home for how long until the tattoo before the tattoo artist offered to fix it for free. How long did this woman wait at home and not go out because of this? Three months. That's exactly what I was going to say. What do you think, Hampty? That's a good guess. Yeah, three months. Let's all guess three months.
Starting point is 00:25:54 No, I want to mix. One month. One month. One month. Maybe she's really strong. Maybe she overcame it. She overcame it. Yeah, she overcame the same adversity, but in a shorter amount of time.
Starting point is 00:26:04 I'll go two. She nippend it in the butt. I'll go two. She nippend it in the butt. I'll go two. She nippapranded it in the butt. I mean, you said how much? That is the translation. See,
Starting point is 00:26:11 my eyebrows raise at that. I'm just kidding. She stayed at home for a year. Oh my God. A year until another tattoo. That's okay. Now she's not being realistic.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Until another tattoo artist offered to fix her eyebrows for free. Patwee. What? Bring them together? Is the break in between? And so she's got one, two, three, four. Yeah, Eugene Levy is like, I know a guy.
Starting point is 00:26:34 You said above. I'm calling in a specialist. You said above. So they're literally above it. What a fucking. Patwee. The fixer. Eugene Levy is the fixer. Patwee. Patoi. The fixer. Pum.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Eugene Levy is the fixer. Patoi Pumkasem. Queen Latifah. Offered to remove Nipah Pram's. Is the remover. Queen Latifah is the remover. I would. MC Light is the remover.
Starting point is 00:27:01 After seeing Nipah Pram's condition, quote, I knew I had to help her, but that normally costs 15,000 bahts. Lisa left Diode Lopez is the remover. But I'm willing to do it for free, Patois was quoted as saying. He added that the procedure would take three months and the old ink must be removed and faded before tattooing the new brows. The procedure went smoothly and Nipah Brown was able to faded before tattooing the new brows. The procedure went smoothly and Nipah Brown was able to regain her confidence. That's beautiful. I had a terrible time living with four eyebrows on my forehead,
Starting point is 00:27:33 but I luckily found this new tattoo artist. With the new artist, I can finally live a normal life, she said. Wait, wouldn't you just shave off the old eyebrows? Like, why can't you shave off the old ones? Just set your expectations even higher. Believe in yourself. Those are too high. Who cares?
Starting point is 00:27:51 People will take your eyebrows. But you wouldn't have four. High eyebrows are better than four. Am I right? Or just blink them. Or neat them off. Nair them off. Okay, so my last thing we're going to find out.
Starting point is 00:28:04 Pata we. I like find out. Pata Wee. I like the sweater. Thank you. Pata Wee and Nipapron are the exact same age. How old? What else are they? I don't know. Lubbers?
Starting point is 00:28:15 Are you two for real? Why? What else is Pata Wee and Nipapron? Those are two. Oh, they're the new Rizzoli Niles. Okay. Jesus Christ. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. They're the Thai Rizzoli and Isles. Okay. Jesus Christ. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:28:25 I'm sorry. They're the Thai Rizzoli and Isles. You've changed. You know what? You guys have changed. You know what? You know what? You know what?
Starting point is 00:28:30 You know what? You guys have changed. You guys have changed. Sorry to Hollywood you, Dan. We don't make that joke anymore. Don't raise your eyebrows at me. All right. Rizzoli and Isles,
Starting point is 00:28:39 do they make that at the spaghetti factory? Well, actually, they're actually the new. Spaghetti and Factory is the new Rizzoli and Isles. No, they're actually the new... Spaghetti and factory is the new Rizzoli and eyebrows. No, they're actually the new Rizzoli and eyebrows.
Starting point is 00:28:47 All right, so let's... There we go. Ask our brothers. Thumbs up and more comments. Thank you. All right, so how old is Nipple Prawn and Pottawee the new Rizzoli and eyebrows?
Starting point is 00:28:56 Each? Are they the same age? They're the same age. Oh. How old are they? If you told me that Nipple Prawn and Pottawee were two new characters in Star Wars,
Starting point is 00:29:03 I'd be like, yep. Sure, why not? And good names. They're both great. You'd be like, oh, they're cool. How did I think of the new Nippopron and Patois were two new characters in Star Wars, I'd be like, yep. Sure, why not? And good names. They're both great. You'd be like, oh, they're cool. How did I think of them? Those are my two new favorite characters. I love them so much.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Then the eyebrows could be as many as you want. Yeah, as many eyebrows as you want. That's part of the character. The multi-eyebrowed Nippopron. I'm going to say they're both, because you want the tattoo artist to have experience and be good. Sure. She's young and dumb to do this.
Starting point is 00:29:27 I'm going to say they're both 26. I'm going old. Older. I'm going to put them at like 60. 60? Go ahead. What do you think? 37.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Okay. Get your answers in, townies. Okay. Because Nipapran and Patui, and this will end the second story on this, and then Dan. They're babies. They're three months old. They are 32 years old. So you can't,
Starting point is 00:29:52 I like you were five. I was five and six. So you guys were right. And you're like, they have to be old enough to have done this enough before, but also young and dumb enough to like make this mistake. All right, there you go.
Starting point is 00:30:01 That is story number two, budget. Don't get your, don't get your eyebrows done on a budget. I would steal a cop car if that happened to me right yes that's about the answering calls yeah exactly there we go uh all right it's a taste of what we're gonna see uh in story number three you're gonna see uh some very overzealous restaurant goers i love it that's story number three and then uh for our patreon fans hampton's gonna tell us a dumb story he's got a little He's got a little baby.
Starting point is 00:30:26 I'm sure there's dumb stuff he's done to or with his baby. There we go. We'll get into all that on the Patreon. It's not PeopleTown. Don't go anywhere. Stick around. Make it sound for more. Don't PeopleTown.
Starting point is 00:30:41 All right. I'm going to take you guys home with this story. Jay, take us home. Two women at a Texas Denny's realized it was short-staffed. How do you realize that? Oh, you realize it. Yeah, when you don't get a water. Something's not perfect at this Denny's.
Starting point is 00:30:54 Well, no. It's your one woman. No one comes to your table in 25 minutes. They realized it was short-staffed, so they jumped in and started cooking. What? That's great. You can't do this. You cannot.
Starting point is 00:31:03 They're going to take your badge. Dan loves it. This was sent in by Carlene McDermott at SheBeCarlene. Dan would have done this. So this time I was on the road and I found myself in an IHOP, right? Pancakes and everything in a bag for whatever you order. And I
Starting point is 00:31:19 watched a woman come in and quit. And then they were trying to talk her out of quitting. It was not quite quitting. It was not quiet quitting. It was not quiet quitting. It wasn't super loud, but there was nobody in there. It was like six, maybe four tables tops. So you could definitely hear her quit. And then she wanted to get food to go.
Starting point is 00:31:33 And I figured one of the line cooks was her boyfriend. And so he was like, oh, you're doing this today. So I think you could be at a Denny's and go, I don't think anybody's working here. The fact that these people jumped in to help is like, not bad dumb, but sweet dumb. You said he got a Denny's and go, I don't think anybody's working. The fact that these people jumped in to help is not bad dumb, but sweet dumb. Instead of getting at Denny's watching everybody quit, I think no one runs this Denny's right now. I run this Denny's. By the way, this Denny's hasn't been open in 45 years.
Starting point is 00:31:57 It's a ghost Denny's. Should we go to ghost Denny's? One of my favorite Denny's stories our friend Eric Friedman the hilarious writer comedian he said that when he was in high school his mom always used to make him tell me where you are and give me the phone number
Starting point is 00:32:12 so I can talk to their parents so he said tonight tonight we're going to Denny's and she's like give me his mom's phone I heard about Denny he's bad
Starting point is 00:32:23 bad news he's very unhealthy for you alright so this article starts with we've all been there he's a little I heard about Denny. He's bad. Bad news. He's very unhealthy for you. All right. So this article starts with, we've all been there. I heard he's a little Rudy Tutti fresh. Stop. We've all been there,
Starting point is 00:32:32 this article says. I've never been there. Standing in line to be seated at a fairly busy restaurant while your stomach growls in protest. I guess. Sure, maybe. When two women left a concert,
Starting point is 00:32:42 August 22nd, search of food, they had no idea they'd find themselves taking order and cooking food. Carol, I need more hash on the fly. Give me a 39, 49. Carol, zip these out. They just got done watching the bear.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Thank you, chef. Chef, fire two, fire six. Thank you, chef. Thank you, chef. We got eggs Florentine on seven. Thank you, chef. I you, chef. We got eggs Florentine on seven. Thank you, chef. I'm going to need you to turn in your knives and your mess. Chef, I need you to turn in your knives.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Please pack your knives and leave. Like, they're firing people? Right. Okay, get into it. Sylvia Arendado and her mother. And her mother. Adalia Merkel. Also, what concert do you think they like?
Starting point is 00:33:22 Is Adalia Merkel the one who sang? Just go to the fucking IHOP next door. Adalia Merkel is like the girl who sang Frozen. No, what concert do you think they lost? Is Adalia Markel the one who sang- Just go to the fucking IHOP next door. Adalia Markel is like the- The girl who sang Frozen. No, that's Adele Dazeen. Adalia Markel is the president of Germany. My local Denny's in Texas. They were seated by another customer.
Starting point is 00:33:41 So you know all Denny's are local. Before realizing the restaurant was extremely short-staffed, instead of taking their business elsewhere, they decided to roll up their sleeves and get to work. Yeah. I love it. Here's the thing that no one asked us. This country needs to get tough and pull itself up by its bootstraps.
Starting point is 00:33:58 She wrote, Aaron Dotto, I'm going to tell you all you need to know about this woman. She wrote about the unique experience on her Facebook course. Of course. Of course. She's 70. When she explained that only two people were working, one was serving tables, the other was the cook. And as for the man that was acting as host, seating guest, he had no idea what he was doing because he didn't work there. So they joined in.
Starting point is 00:34:21 He started it. Someone else started it, and now we're going to now finish this job. It's become like a community restaurant. And now we're going to finish this job It's become like a community restaurant We're going to do the thing that no one asked us But they need So the guy who was seating people Told Aaron Dotto and Markel that his wife Used to work at a Denny's
Starting point is 00:34:36 That's literally enough to get hired Is that enough to allow you to work at a Denny's It's okay guys My wife used to work at a Denny's I It's okay, guys. My wife used to work at a Denny's. I know what I'm doing. I think you mean ex-wife. My cousin's a dermatologist. Let me look at that penis.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Where's your wife now? We're having problems. You don't think if you walked into a Denny's and go, hey, I have a friend who used to work here, they'd be like, good enough. I'm sure they have a legacy program. Wait, where's your wife now? We're having problems. Well, of course we're having problems. I'm at the Dennings.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Right. Trying to work. I don't want to go home. We're not talking. Her mom's the whole issue. Can you clean off the two-top? I don't want to hear this story. All right.
Starting point is 00:35:16 The service industry. Kids really prefer to be with me. The great resignation has really hit the service industry. Sure. That's true. Yeah, that's real. Wages, poor management, rude customers. If this story, though, was on Christmas,
Starting point is 00:35:27 this would be the most heartwarming story of community. This is a Hallmark movie. This is how two people meet each other. He was a host that wasn't supposed to be there. She's a line cook who's not supposed to be there. Together they make Christmas magic. This was probably the most beautiful act of American
Starting point is 00:35:43 unity I have personally encountered, Arundhato told Upworthy. All right, relax. Why don't we chill out on this? I think the Revolutionary War might have had something to say about that. She added that the sole paid server would occasionally start to cry before being confronted by the cook, only to return the favor when he would get overwhelmed. They should close the Denny's.
Starting point is 00:36:05 These two people are not emotionally stable. It's capitalism work for another day. There's a Waffle House where everyone's still employed. Shut it down. Right down the street. These two kids have exhausted
Starting point is 00:36:14 all their resources, including calling their manager multiple times. Instead of customers getting angry, demanding better service, or walking away, Arundhato and Merkel jumped in.
Starting point is 00:36:23 The new Rizzoli and Isles stepped up. The kindness of this group of strangers will surely stick with these employees and the people who are involved. The strength, courage, integrity by these two workers was beyond admirable. Yeah. Right. Until the mom and daughter were like, so how do you guys want to split up tips? Because I feel like there's two of us and we definitely worked harder than you. How long did your wife work at Denny's? I'm not sure. Can you call her and find out? We're not on speaking terms right now.
Starting point is 00:36:48 Oh, you guys are fighting? Why are we yelling across the Denny's about this? We're right next to each other. Eventually, after some convincing, the two employees- It's okay. My husband was in the Army. I'm going to just- That doesn't-
Starting point is 00:36:59 I thought she was hooking up with the landscaper. You guys aren't talking right now? Well, it turns out that she was hooking up with the landscaper, but she lied't talking right now? Well, it turns out that she was hooking up with the landscaper, but she lied to me about something else. Cool. Can we just get a table? Can we get some more boysenberry on- Is your wife here right now?
Starting point is 00:37:14 All right. Eventually, after some convincing, two employees- Can we get some more boysenberry on seven? Did I say boysenberry? That's what I call my ex-wife. Anyway, we can talk about that later. The two employees shut down the restaurant, and Aaron Dottoa and Raquel went home much more tired than anticipated. No shit.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Still hungry, but full of gratitude and pride. They never ate? You didn't make your own food. You at least get an employee meal. What kind of dummies are you? You get an employee meal. Come on. You get something.
Starting point is 00:37:40 You just helped out a corporation that should be shutting down. What if they made their- Every Denny's should have bars on it and wood. You just helped out a corporation that should be shutting down. What if they made their- Every Denny's should have bars on it and wood. What if they made their meal, they'd bring it back to a table, sit down and eat it, and they put it in front of each other and they're like, I asked for an extra. They go back and cook. Hey, I need two more.
Starting point is 00:38:02 We ordered two sausage links. Is there any more? I'm going to leave you on this because there is a guess in here. It may be surprising for some to learn that the federal minimum wage for tipped employees like servers and bussers is just how much per hour? Daniel, I think you would know this. The federal minimum wage? I think I know. The rest of the wage is supposed to be made up in tips, which depending on where you work may be –
Starting point is 00:38:20 Federal minimum wage. I think it's like $4.
